347: ultimate weapon
After listening to Udo's explanation, Filiche's expression improved slightly, and he said, "Udo, I'm really sorry, I misunderstood him."
"How could he be a shameless traitor secretly colluding with the enemy?"
"What he said makes a lot of sense. We do need to find more like-minded Cosmic Beasts."
"Fortunately, the other party's behavior of dominating the auction and sweeping up countless items is very hate-inducing."
"I am confident that I can find at least ten Cosmic Level Cosmic Beasts to join our plan."
When it came to beast lineages, Udo, no matter how formidable, could not surpass Filiche.
Therefore, it was reasonable for Filiche to be able to recruit ten Cosmic Beasts.
However, Filiche never dreamed that Udo wasn't afraid to betray him, but rather, he betrayed him and wasn't favored by Lin Tianwei, even being demoted to worthless trash.
In a sense, Filiche was now like a garbage collector.
Collecting the trash that Lin Tianwei didn't want.
Hearing Filiche's words, Udo always felt that the other party was scolding him and had already obtained evidence.
Yet, he didn't dare to refute or tell the other party that his attempt to defect was rejected.
His expression immediately became somewhat displeased.
This surprised Filiche, who asked, "Filiche, what's wrong?"
"Why do you look so unhappy when you hear that I can recruit ten powerful Cosmic Beasts?"
"Could it be that you think we won't be able to defeat them?"
"How is that possible?"
"In this Extremely Cold Universe, which can only accommodate Cosmic Level Rank 9 Cosmic Beasts at most, our lineup can be said to sweep away any opponent."
"Even if the opponent is a powerful Cosmic Level Rank 9 Cosmic Beast, he absolutely cannot be our match."
"We absolutely cannot fail."
Udo, who couldn't think of how to explain his expression, never imagined that an explanation would be delivered to his doorstep. He immediately followed Filiche's words and said,
"I am indeed worried about whether we can succeed."
"As you know, the other party's financial resources are so vast, and it's obvious that he possesses many trump cards."
"Not only might his own strength reach Cosmic Level Rank 9, but he might also have the assistance of a Cosmic Level Rank 9."
"There are still two days left until this auction officially ends."
"We need to find at least one hundred powerful Cosmic Beasts to have a guaranteed victory."
"Filiche, don't rush to refuse. You know, we have no capital to lose; we simply cannot afford to lose!"
"Not only that, but you must also utilize Miguel to ensure that our plan is foolproof."
Miguel?
Hearing this name, Filiche's face instantly changed, and he said in horror, "Udo, do you know what you're saying?"
"Miguel, that's Miguel. How dare you ask me to use him?"
Facing Filiche's questioning, Udo sneered, "You're at your wit's end, what are you still afraid of?"
"Our current situation is either you die or I die."
"Dear Mr. Filiche, you wouldn't want to fail in this promotion, would you?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, once you fail to advance, those wolf-like competitors will devour you whole, not even leaving a speck of bone."
"In this situation, do you still find it difficult to accept using Miguel?"
Miguel, this seemingly simple name, was an existence that made all Cosmic Beasts in the Extremely Cold Universe change color at the mention of it.
It was also one of the reasons why the Lotus Slave Market could stand firm in the Extremely Cold Universe.
The fact that the Extremely Cold Universe could only accommodate Cosmic Level Rank 9 Cosmic Beasts at most was generally speaking.
Truly powerful forces often possessed special methods that allowed Cosmic Beasts whose strength was above Cosmic Level, reaching Domain Lord Level, to exist in the Extremely Cold Universe.
A Domain Lord Level Cosmic Beast in the Extremely Cold Universe, where the upper limit was only Cosmic Level Rank 9, could completely achieve crushing dominance, an unquestionable crushing dominance.
Miguel was precisely a Domain Lord Level Cosmic Beast. As a Slave, he was the ultimate existence used by the Lotus Slave Market to hold down the fort.
Other major forces also possessed similar existences to Miguel, which was their greatest capital for standing firm.
Although subject to many restrictions, existences like Miguel, possessing strength a major stage higher, could annihilate countless Cosmic Level powerhouses with a wave of their hand.
Of course, the Lotus Slave Market also had to pay a huge price to keep Miguel.
To keep a Cosmic Beast whose strength far exceeded the universe's capacity, even with special methods, was extremely difficult.
Even in a frozen state, Miguel needed to consume a large amount of origin power every moment to suppress his own strength.
Each use of Miguel required at least six figures of origin power as a base.
Therefore, unless it was a matter of life and death, the Lotus Slave Market would never use Miguel.
Using their ultimate weapon.
Filiche felt that Udo's idea was simply whimsical,
especially given the precondition that Lin Tianwei was a major customer of the Lotus Slave Market.
Using Miguel to deal with Lin Tianwei was simply courting death.
Thinking of this, Filiche decisively refused, saying, "I am at my wit's end, but I am not stupid."
"Failing to advance is a near-death experience for me, but rashly using Miguel is certain death."
"I will contact more Cosmic Beasts to participate in my plan; the number will not be less than eighty Cosmic Level Cosmic Beasts."
"You make more effort, and forming a grand alliance of a hundred Cosmic Level Cosmic Beasts will be no problem at all."
"With such a lineup, it's perfectly fine to say we can slaughter gods."
"But do not mention using Miguel again."
"Otherwise, let alone me, even you, who instigated me, will surely die!"
Even in such a desperate situation, Filiche still dared not use Miguel, which was enough to show how tragic the consequences of arbitrarily using Miguel would be.
However, he didn't expect that his words not only failed to dissuade Udo but instead made him feel that the matter held great promise.
In his desperation, Udo finally remembered the old Legend that Filiche might be from the Zebra clan.
He even possessed partial usage rights to Miguel, the ultimate weapon of the Lotus Slave Market.
Of course, he was just trying his luck, but he didn't expect to actually hit the best outcome.
Filiche actually had an unusually close relationship with Miguel.
After all, Filiche didn't look like a big shot at all.
And he had absolutely nothing to do with an ultimate weapon like Miguel.
He was merely a Cosmic Beast who found even promotion extremely difficult.
With a turn of events, Udo's eyes immediately lit up.
Even in his final madness, he wanted to win gracefully.
No matter how many rabble there were, they were still rabble. The truly crucial high-end power was what determined the outcome of the battle.
From Filiche's words, it could be inferred that he was definitely capable of using a powerful weapon like Miguel.
After his eyeballs rolled around a few times, Udo organized his words and said,
"Over a hundred Cosmic Beasts can indeed ensure our victory, but they cannot guarantee our own safety."
"As the organizers of this operation, we naturally cannot not participate."
"This Cosmic Beast's strength is not to be underestimated. Once he goes berserk, he might truly be unstoppable."
"After all, those Cosmic Beasts we recruited would rather see us die so they can get more spoils of war. How could they wholeheartedly protect us?"
"Even if we take ten thousand steps back, you only need to bring Miguel."
"Trump cards are something you don't have to use, but you must have them."
"Do you really think that with such a huge advantage, we would still have the chance to use Miguel?"
Udo's words sounded very reasonable, causing Filiche to fall into hesitation and indecision once again.
Seeing a glimmer of hope, Udo immediately intensified his persuasion, saying,
"Think about the consequences of failure; that would absolutely be an eternal nightmare you wouldn't want to face."
"Moreover, this Cosmic Beast is so wealthy, and he must have many priceless treasures on him."
"As long as we can capture him and obtain his method for earning origin power, our future will be bright."
"How about this, after we unite, we add another condition."
"If the situation becomes so severe that Miguel needs to be used, these spoils of war will be prioritized as compensation for your use of Miguel."
"As long as the hole created by using Miguel can be filled, things won't escalate to a life-and-death struggle."
"Don't worry, that Cosmic Beast is incredibly rich."
"Even after filling the hole from Miguel, there will definitely be a large amount of origin power left, enough for us to make a huge profit."
"Leaving aside other things, just the auction items he bid for at the auction are priceless, worth at least a million units of origin power."
"Of course, in 99.99999% of cases, there will be no need to use Miguel, allowing us to make a fortune."
As Udo continued to entice him, Filiche's resolve wavered more and more.
Yes, he was just bringing an extra trump card; it wouldn't make much difference.
Even if he really used Miguel, it would be saving his own life.
Plus, using the spoils of killing Lin Tianwei to compensate, this matter held great promise!
As for the possibility of failure after using Miguel, Filiche had not considered it at all.
How could Miguel fail?
How could Miguel, with his Domain Lord Level Rank 1 strength, fail to easily suppress a Cosmic Level existence?
Allowing the opponent to live for more than ten seconds would be a disrespect to Miguel's strength.
Thinking of this, Filiche's eyes gradually became greedy, and he said,
"I can bring Miguel. As compensation, when dividing the spoils, I must receive an additional ten percent of all spoils."
"Not only that, but I also want priority in selection."
"Agree to my terms, and I will bring Miguel."
"If the situation becomes so dire that Miguel needs to be used, then you must pay eighty percent of all spoils as compensation."
"And I also need priority in selection."
"Don't rush to refuse. You should know that even just bringing Miguel out without using him, I am taking a huge risk."
"Even if we ultimately win, I will definitely not come out unscathed."
After hearing Filiche's words, Udo frowned deeply.
He really didn't expect that although Filiche agreed to carry Miguel, he was making an outrageous demand, shouting a price that made one's hair stand on end.
Merely carrying Miguel required ten percent of the total spoils, not to mention the absurd price of eighty percent of the total spoils after using Miguel.
But thinking about it differently, if just ten percent of the spoils could add a safety lock to this operation, then it would truly be a huge profit.
Using Miguel?
If the situation had already reached that point, it meant that they had pretty much been completely annihilated.
Not to mention eighty percent of the spoils, even one hundred percent of the spoils would have nothing to do with them.
To be able to turn the tide against all odds and still get some spoils, this was simply a freebie.
If it weren't for the fact that Miguel couldn't be used easily, Udo even had an immature idea: simply don't bring those hangers-on and let Miguel act directly.
In that case, Filiche would get eighty percent of the spoils, and he would simply get twenty percent of the spoils for free, which would be a huge profit.
It must be said that Filiche was indeed an excellent businessman, handling the situation with exceptional skill.
These two percentages seemed very high, but they actually just hit Filiche's psychological limit.
Making him unable to even think of refusing.
After all, that was Miguel, a Domain Lord Level existence.
Even being able to feel a hint of his aura was an honor for Udo, not to mention having Miguel escort him.
This was simply a tremendous honor.
Thinking of this, Udo gritted his teeth and agreed, saying, "Filiche, your request is very reasonable."
"As long as you confirm that you are carrying Miguel before departure, I will agree to your terms."
Filiche smiled noncommittally and said, "Don't worry, I don't want this operation to go wrong more than you do."
"Pray, pray that we win."
"Once Miguel acts, even if we win, we won't end up well."
"Even though I know a considerable number of Cosmic Beasts, it is still a bit difficult to gather such a large number of Cosmic Beasts."
"I'm leaving now; you should also act quickly."
"The sooner the plan is executed, the better."
"Otherwise, if this cunning fellow runs off to some gutter and hides like a mouse, we might not be able to find him for a while."
With that, Filiche left the virtual world without hesitation.
To achieve final victory, Filiche still needed to prepare thoroughly.
There was no need to watch this auction any further; he was already bound to lose.
But it didn't matter; as long as he could kill the beast behind the opponent, he could easily crush an ant like Luo Ji; there was no difficulty at all.
In contrast, Udo did not exit the virtual world but was using it to contact all possible helpers.
He also changed his mindset, watching Lin Tianwei slowly collect treasures for him.
Collecting those treasures that would soon belong to him! (End of Chapter)
