I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1701 The Red-Handed Fleet

Finding this bunker made the two of them realise something. They just cared about forces and loot on the ground, but experienced smugglers like Smiggy knew more about the layout of bases in this world.

Just seeing this huge bunker, filled with nothing, made the two imagine it filled with tons of boxes, filled with treasures!

"Damn you! You looted something big this time!" The nymph lady couldn't help but express her shock from such a thing, envying him for having such a chance to loot this bunker all by himself.

"The perks of the job, baby," Smiggy said in a mocking tone as if he was bragging or something, "anyway, if you want to be like me, you have a very long road ahead. A piece of advice, smugglers like myself aren't cowards or weak. We are daring and courageous!"

"Stop bragging and showing off, let's go straight for business," Hye knew these words weren't false, weren't meant for bragging or showing off. Just by being here, attacking a main bunker of the world's forces, he was indeed dauntless.

He also knew Smiggy picked this point in specifically as it was a wrongly known thing about smugglers. And for a reason, it felt like this was his soft spot or something.

"We are already in the right place to go up there," Smiggy pointed around, "but the question is… Do you still want to go? Risk your life up there? You saw it yourself, you can get great loot from here, why risk going up there?"

"Why won't you say it directly, that you want to use my Soulers?" Hye got Smiggy's nature and knew this man wouldn't say anything without having a benefit from it. And the thing that he mentioned before during their talk was his Soulers.

He showed an expected interest in the way Hye used to make up for the deadly side effects of this deadly race. He didn't know that Hye wasn't just having Soulers, but also the much scarier breed; Reapers!

Hye of course didn't tell him anything, gave out a vague answer and changed the topic. And again Smiggy mentioned the Soulers when he woke him up back at the hotel. And now he was trying to let him stay, giving him an indirect offer of collaboration and work together.

"Why won't I be interested in them?" Smiggy finally dropped his act and spoke directly about his needs, "I want them, anyone dreams about having them. Only you, and a few crazy famous people in the universe can be this insane to have them on their side! Not to mention you are, by far, the craziest person I have ever heard of, having thousands upon thousands of these!"

Hye knew Smiggy was tailing him or something to speak like this. He indeed used tens of thousands of Soulers when he attacked and looted bases here. But it seemed like Smiggy didn't do lots of digging about this, or else he'd get shocked to know how much Hye used back at the apocalypse.

"Why don't you come with me up there?" Hye flipped the offer over, and threw it toward Smiggy's face, "Why don't you come and work together to reap much greater benefits?"

"You are after my spaceships!" Smiggy also read through Hye's intentions, just like how the latter saw through him before.

"You want my Soulers, and I want your spaceships… So it's a fair deal, right?"

"No, no deal, no, this is crazy," Smiggy seemed to grow terrified of going up there. And Hye could guess the reason behind this.

Why would he risk it when he could reap benefits from here with more safety? If he went up there, he'd have more chances to reap much greater benefits for sure, yet the risks involved in this were much higher without a doubt.

He'd end up losing too much of his precious assets, and forces as well. Hye might not care that much about his warriors as he could easily train more of them.

Unlike him, Smiggy had to struggle to nourish and train his followers. Losing too many of them at any time would be a great blow that he'd not accept.

That was why Smiggy refused in such an intense and direct way. "Fine, show us the way to the top then," Hye shrugged, as he just tried out this suggestion on a whim.

"I told you, we are already in the right place," Smiggy didn't explain any further, making Hye look at him in a weird way, "just take out your spaceship, and I'll activate the portal to send it up there."

He said it as if he was explaining something basic and simple to a kid or something. Hye wanted to smack that smuggler's head but refrained from doing so.

"Get back then," he waited until the two retreated, took out one spaceship and let it land and fill a big space here. They were standing in a colossal warehouse, one that seemed to have tons of items before.

He just took a small spaceship out, randomly picking one without caring about its version or model.

"Oh, the Black Feather ship… You got something nice… Why don't…"

"It's not for sale," Hye read too much about spaceships but didn't get what Smiggy meant by this. He didn't delve that deep into different models and capabilities of spaceships. But from Smiggy's reaction, it seemed the ship he casually picked was something famous and special.

"Come on! I can exchange it for a hundred normal edition small spaceships!" the more Smiggy spoke, the more he made Hye determined to keep this one for himself.

"Thanks, I'll use it for my personal use," Hye didn't stop there, took out a sword, and cut his hand. He then touched the side of the spaceship with his bloodied palm, leaving a red mark there, "that'll be the symbol of my forces up there. If you heard about red-handed ships, then know they belong to me."
