#882 - Chapter 882 Bargaining
“Snap!”
Just as a black tentacle was trying to steal a precious artifact while Wu Wei wasn't paying attention, Wu Wei swiftly extended his substance of sin and lashed out at the tentacle.
The black tentacle immediately darted back like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
“Hey, hey, hey!”
“Don’t go too far, okay?”
Wu Wei looked up and frowned as he said,
“I’m negotiating with you right now.”
“Don’t even think about trying to fool me with tricks or lies.”
With that, he stored all the remaining artifacts into his private space.
There was no helping it; Wu Wei had sufficient awareness of the Abyss Mother's shoddiness.
He believed that if these artifacts he possessed were seen by her on the ground,
She would definitely say something like they were a 'gift from the lower dimensions' that allowed her to find them, and then take them all away, not giving him even a little bit.
So, to maximize his own benefits, Wu Wei had to be careful.
“First, I’ll state my demands.”
“I can give you all four of these artifacts.”
“But, you must fulfill my three conditions.”
“The first condition is that you need to upgrade all of my demon heroes, and the only devil leader, to demigod level in one go, which means helping them ignite their divine fire.”
“....”
Hearing this request, the Abyss Mother hesitated.
Clearly, Wu Wei's request was a bit 'excessive'.
But soon, Wu Wei narrowed his eyes and said in an undeniable tone,
“Hey, I know it doesn’t cost you much to create a Dark Breath, okay?”
“If you don't even agree to this condition, then we have nothing to talk about.”
“Moreover, the artifacts I acquire later, those artifacts that can be measured in double digits, will also need to be reconsidered.”
Hearing Wu Wei's threat, the Abyss Mother quickly agreed to Wu Wei's request.
Of course.
The reason the Abyss Mother agreed was definitely not because she doted on Wu Wei or anything.
It was only because she heard that Wu Wei could provide more than ten artifacts later.
She couldn't possibly refuse such a temptation.
“Alright, let’s talk about the second condition now.”
“The second condition is very simple.”
“That is, you must expend enough divine power to raise me to demigod level in one go, helping me ignite my divine fire!”
Hearing Wu Wei's second request, the Abyss Mother hesitated once again.
Although raising Wu Wei's strength would also benefit the Abyss Mother, because Wu Wei was an Abyss Lord.
To increase his strength, the Abyss Mother would need to expend a large amount of divine power and divinity.
This was something she couldn't quite accept, as her divinity was already scarce.
So, she ultimately chose to refuse.
But Wu Wei didn't give up easily. After all, as a Legend, he had realized the importance of power to himself.
Especially after he possessed the Abyss System.
So, to get the Abyss Mother's agreement, Wu Wei temporarily changed his strategy.
To be precise, he was preparing to temporarily 'borrow' from the Abyss Mother!
“Then how about this.”
“You raise my strength first.”
“And later, I will give you sufficient compensation.”
“When I acquire artifacts again, I will give you all the rights to the benefits of the next ten artifacts, how about it?”
Hearing Wu Wei's proposal, the Abyss Mother quickly agreed.
After all, she only needed at most two artifacts to help Wu Wei reach demigod strength.
She would earn the remaining eight for nothing.
So, after a round of bargaining, Wu Wei completed the negotiation for the first two requests.
And the third negotiation, which was also the most important, began.
“As for the third request, I consider it the simplest.”
Wu Wei paused and looked at the sky.
“That is, I need you to explain two things to me.”
“Why was I chosen by you to become your proxy?”
“And secondly, what exactly is the Abyss Overlord's plan for us Abyss Lords?”
Sure enough, after experiencing that new memory.
Even someone as slow as Wu Wei had finally noticed that something was amiss!
He knew very well.
That all of this came at a price.
But the question also arose.
He had to understand what exactly he was getting in return for the price he was paying!
The black-red vortex in the sky slowly rotated.
She...
Was thinking!
