Chapter 2754 A Task For You
The primordial beast was an important part of Lacey's rescue.
Maulwurf was taken aback by Zeke's response. Is Commander Williams being serious? Does he really have the power to slay the primordial beast?
Zeke sighed. “But Camp South Master is working too slowly. He has only lured over thirty beasts so far. It'll take some time before I kill a thousand beasts. Maulwurf, I have a task for you. You'll convince Camp South Master to send more Heavenly Spirit Stones to lure more beasts over. Try to get a thousand beasts here as soon as possible to wake the primordial beast. I'll reward you finely for this.”
Maulwurf beamed. “Thank you so much, Mr. Williams!”
Zeke then turned to Scar Face and the others. “You've provided me with crucial information this time, and I'll reward you well for this too. Find Phoenix and get two months' worth of food. When you rise in ranks, I'll also give you some guidance.”
What?
Scar Face and the rest were delighted.
Not only were they going to receive two months' worth of food, but they were also going to receive cultivation guidance from Zeke personally.
Everyone had seen how powerful Zeke was. Even if they did not know whether or not he was stronger than Theos, they knew he was certainly no weaker than Camp Masters.
If he could guide them while they were rising in rank, they might be able to even rise two ranks instead.
It was a reward simply too great.
Scar Face and the others kept thanking him.
Zeke said, “You heard what Maulwurf said. From now on, Camp South Master will be tossing more than a thousand Heavenly Spirit Stones into Centuria's district. Be sure to collect them as quickly as you can and hand them over to me.”
“Roger that!” Scar Face and the others replied.
At Camp South, Camp South Master summoned his trusted subordinate, Sunshade, again.
Kneeling before Camp South Master, Sunshade asked, “Master, what can I do for you?”
Camp South Master replied, “Centuria's district has been recently attacked by thirty beasts, right?”
Sunshade nodded. “Yes.”
“How long will it take until they kill a thousand beasts at this rate?”
In other words, Camp South Master was telling Sunshade to lure more beasts to Centuria's district.
However, he could not be direct about it, for he and Quinlan had agreed on it.
Sunshade bobbed his head immediately. “Understood!”
Camp South Master nodded in satisfaction. “Run along now.”
Sunshade was a valuable member back then because he was smart enough to understand the underlying messages in his words.
It seemed that his initial choice was right.
This time, Sunshade took over fifty Heavenly Spirit Stones.
The amount of Heavenly Spirit Stones was definitely going to lure no less than a hundred beasts to Centuria's district. In fact, it might lure much more than that.
In no time, a thousand beasts would be lured to the base.
On the third day after Zeke's announcement, Scar Face and the others sensed the presence of Heavenly Spirit Stones.
They hastily searched for them and handed them to Zeke.
Zeke let out a sigh as he looked at the miserable fifty Heavenly Spirit Stones.
There are only fifty stones here? Only fifty beasts will be lured over, then. How long will it take until a thousand beasts come? When will the primordial beast finally come?
Zeke was even thinking of moving the base to the Beast District if things were happening too slowly. That way, they would be attacked by beasts every day, and soon, he would kill a thousand beasts.
Zeke said to Scar Face, “Tell Sole Wolf and the others to come to me. Tell them that I have an important task for them.”
“Understood!” Scar Face nodded vigorously.
Sole Wolf and the others were currently refining spiritual iron at the Spirit Stone storage area, but Zeke was not short of spiritual iron at the moment. What he wanted was to use Heavenly Spirit Stones to create an Earth Level divine weapon.
He wanted to summon Sole Wolf and the others to kill beasts and keep the order in the base instead.
At that moment, Sole Wolf and the rest were sighing and frowning in the Spirit Stone storage area.
They were generals, and they should be fighting on battlefields. Yet, they had been assigned to refine spiritual iron instead.
