Slow and Steady

"Am I to continue managing it?"

The environment in Red Maple Forest was extremely harsh. The surrounding trees had been infected, turning their branches black and their leaves red. The air was thick with the pungent smell of sulfur and blood, and corpses and flesh were their companions all day long.

But as the Butcher Councilor, Gallon Ake did not need to personally process the corpses. Though the profits were not as good as those of the other councilors, there was still money to be made.

Gallon Ake hesitated for a moment but did not refuse. "Then... all right! I'll definitely help Scholar Eno manage Red Maple Forest properly and strictly carry out Scholar Eno's orders."

"Good! Take me to the warehouse first, then go about your business."

After giving his instructions, Yin Ming went straight to Red Maple Forest's warehouse. He had Gallon Ake leave first, then sealed the doors and began his inspection.

Before him lay over a hundred freshly piled corpses, but there were no rare First-Ring-Tier demon corpses.

After taking inventory, he found sixteen corpses of various Zero-Ring Demon Hatchlings and 146 corpses of demon bloodlines. Most of the Abyss Demons were nearly humanoid, while the other demon-bloodline corpses came in all sorts of bizarre shapes.

"Resources! These are all precious resources. By comparison, the Zero-Ring extraordinary materials obtained by processing the corpses outside are nothing but kitchen scraps."

Yin Ming took a deep breath. He first pulled out the Scavenger Gourd and aimed its mouth at all the Abyss creature corpses. "Collect!"
