164 plans(1/2)
The entire Matut adventure group showed great hostility after everything was explained.
The other party clearly wanted to offend Viscount Leofric, but it was completely different from their intentions. In other words, if both parties really intended to make the bounty of the giant egg ordinary, that would be fine.
But if the other party wants to get the giant egg, their Matute Adventure Group has to bear a lot of risks, and it is hard to say whether they will get a reward that matches it in the end.
If the other party turns their backs and disowns them, they will pay a huge price or even turn against the Viscount, which would be terrifying.
"Your Excellency, if it is not necessary, we do not want to be enemies with the Viscount," Matut stared closely at the man in black in front of him, his expression gloomy, but he was obviously not very determined.
He seemed to be expecting that the man in black in front of him could convince him. After all, Matut thought to himself, it would mean a huge temptation, which would make it possible for him to accept the other party's proposal. He would never refuse equal benefits.
challenges.
Even though the risks involved may be considerable.
But when did he, Matut, ever fear the so-called risks? If he refused because of the risks, it must be because the reward was not enough!
"But Captain Matute, you also said that you don't want to be enemies with the Viscounty unless it is necessary. But what is a non-essential situation?" The man in black looked at him with a bit of bewilderment.
Matut in front of me.
"I think that dinar would be a good choice if we can build friendship between us." Matut's eyes were full of greed, and he looked at the man in black in front of him without any concealment.
man.
"Of course, we have no shortage of dinars," the man in black looked particularly confident. This was not a forced confidence, but a natural attitude.
"Oh? If you are willing to pay enough dinars, we don't mind even if you are against the goddess," the ghost wolf Morote on the side also said with a hint of dangerous aura, but this is already what he can do
The greatest kindness shown.
"As far as I know, the reward amount offered by Viscount Leofric is 80,000 dinars. The reward you just mentioned is divided equally. That means 40,000 dinars is good, right?" the man in black said with a smile.
"That refers to the price of cooperating to present the treasure to Leofric and receiving the bounty equally, and does not include offending the Viscount." Matut said without any confusion.
"But you are not absolutely sure, are you? Viscount Leofric is still very powerful, and you are not absolutely sure about the bounty, are you?" The man in black was not bypassed.
"If you are willing to follow my plan, no matter whether it is successful or not, you can get at least fifty thousand dinars."
Fifty thousand dinars!
The expressions of many people changed instantly. Their eyes when looking at the man in black contained too much eagerness and disbelief.
Fifty thousand dinars, this is really a huge sum of money, even if it is not as high as Viscount Leofric's nearly sky-high reward, but the man in black is right when he says one thing, that is, with that price of a reward, they
The probability of getting it is very low, even if the Matute Adventure Group is one of the strongest adventure groups nearby.
The greater possibility is that the people of Viscount Leofric took the treasure for themselves without having to pay too much, but it attracted a lot of help from many adventurers.
But the man in black in front of him said that as long as he followed his plan, regardless of success or failure, he would get 50,000 dinars?
Not an ordinary fragrance!
If the promise of the man in black can be fulfilled.
"How can I believe what you say?" Matut asked the doubts in his heart, resisting the thought that he was about to agree.
"If you can agree, Captain Matut, we can pay 20,000 dinars in advance to prove our sincerity," the man in black said with a smile.
hiss……
Many people looked at the man in black in front of them with disbelief, looking particularly shocked. This man is so generous!
Twenty thousand dinars, such a huge sum of money, should you give it immediately, or as a deposit? Rich and wealthy is not enough to describe the other party.
"Seriously?" Matut took a deep breath, as if he couldn't believe it, and asked again, "Twenty thousand dinars in advance? If we don't get it, we won't..."
"If you agree, the 20,000 dinars will be delivered to you shortly, and can also be placed at the place you designate." The man in black said nonchalantly.
"Aren't you afraid that we will take the money and leave?" The short-haired woman who spoke before still did not suppress her doubts and asked curiously, "Twenty thousand dinars is not a decimal, so aren't you worried at all?
"
"Since we dare to pay in advance, we won't worry about all this. Believe me, that is not a wise choice." The man in black said with a smile, and the confidence in his words made no one doubt the truth of his words.
"Okay, I agreed," Matut took a deep breath, "As long as I see Dinar, our Matut adventure group will act according to your plan."
"Happy cooperation," the man in black put a smile on his face, stood up with a smile, and drank the malt wine originally on Matut's table.
"Happy cooperation!" Matut looked at the drops of wine splashing on the table with distress, "I don't know your name yet."
"You can call me Owen." The man in black said politely, smiled at everyone in the room, and then stood up and left.
"Huh..." Watching the other party leave, Morotte on one side walked to the window after a moment, and saw Owen's figure leaving. On the other side, the short-haired woman also walked to the door, opened the door to confirm that there was no one around,
He nodded towards Matute.
"What do you think?" Matut rubbed his forehead, looking a little helpless, "I don't know where it came from, it's very mysterious.
We have been in this small town of Quint for so many years, but we have never heard of Owen."
"The action was really generous, 20,000 dinars were thrown down directly. I don't know who is behind it." Many members said fearfully. Obviously, they did not show any malice toward the extremely mysterious Owen, even so far.
, but everyone has to be careful.
"Since we agreed anyway, it's not our turn to regret it," the short-haired woman shook her head helplessly, "We might as well think about how to avoid possible risks.
Looking at Owen's attitude, I'm afraid we'll be in a lot of trouble in the future. Oh my God, Viscount Leofric, it's scary to think about offending him."
Many people nodded. Viscount Leofric is really a big shot in this area. Who dares to offend any of the surrounding nobles?
Even though his power has been greatly reduced in the past two years, for many civilians and even nobles, he is still a big shot that cannot be messed with. His private soldiers are far beyond what the nearby rural nobles can compare with.
If it weren't for the family's lack of territory, even calling him Earl would not be an exaggeration.
"Jer, go and collect our property. If it's not important, prepare to sell it off.
Tate, go and check some of our manpower and connections, and arrange two suitable retreat routes. Maybe this time, we really have to leave the town of Quinte forever." Matute said deeply.
He took a breath and said, there was still a bit of complexity in his words.
After all, they had been operating here for some years, and they were still a little bit reluctant to leave suddenly. However, after all, they were also a wandering adventure group, so their emotions were quickly suppressed.
In this way, under Matut's instructions, each member stood up and left, with a bit more solemnity and solemnity on their faces.
"Nan Erte, go and ask. If any of our downlines who are developing these days are willing to leave with us, we should gather them together as soon as possible. If not, there is no need to force them, but remember not to reveal the specific content."
Matut frowned and said, "No, that's not good either, just say that one of my elders passed away in the distant Lanxia City.
Our Matute adventure group may have to leave the town of Quinte for a while, so that no one will doubt us."
After all...their Matute Adventure Group just said they were seeking cooperation and had ideas about the treasure, but now they are packing their things and preparing to leave. If they don't give a reasonable explanation and arouse others' suspicion, then the real purpose is
It is also easy to be exposed.
"Lan Xia City? Are we really going to Lan Xia City?" Unexpectedly, the short-haired woman Nan Erte looked happy. She had naturally heard about Lan Xia City, the largest city nearby.
It is said that it is a beautiful city with countless wealth and all kinds of jewelry. People live a prosperous life and live and work in peace and contentment. It is a paradise on earth that countless people yearn for.
Moreover, it is said that there is a rumored facial cleanser there, which is a good thing to make women look radiant. Nanerte has been yearning for it for a long time, but he did not expect that his team leader would say this.
"Naturally, that is the territory of the young Marquis, and only there will Viscount Leofric not dare to act arrogantly. In these nearby territories, the Viscount's influence is still quite large." Matut smiled bitterly.
He said.
After all, they were once in charge of the defense line of the southern border. The nobles nearby were willing to give Viscount Leofric a favor without involving their fundamental interests. And they were just an adventure group. It would be difficult for them to avoid the Viscount nearby.
's claws.
…
"This is the Tarik Mountains. It's a bit interesting. I don't know why your Excellency is suddenly interested in this place. Do you want to use the power of the natives? Do you think you think too highly of them?" Owen, the man in black at this time, said,
After bidding farewell to Matut and others, he came to the place where the incident happened - the Tarik Mountains.
The Tarik Mountains are extremely steep, with dense jungles and vegetation of all kinds. There are countless legends circulating in this ancient mountain range, and countless adventurers have gained huge amounts of wealth from it.
Of course, even now, it is still a place that many adventurers are willing to go to, even if it is in that place, an accident may lead to the territory of the Bacchus Empire in the south.
"What are the origins of those giants?" Owen murmured to himself, scanning the many pedestrians nearby. At this time, many adventurers had already rushed here after hearing the news.
Everyone looked dusty, but the ambition on their faces was not concealed at all. Everyone knew who was who. Naturally, they appeared here for the sake of the 80,000 dinars.
"Forget it, let's pass the news here to your lord as soon as possible. I really don't know what your lord is thinking of paying so many dinars to recruit a local adventure group.
After searching around, only the Matute Adventure Group is the one that meets the wishes of the people above. However, Matute's strength is really weak, and I don't know what role it can play." Owen said helplessly.
He smiled bitterly, his face that originally looked ordinary now looked a little more playful, with a strange sense of mystery.
…
At this time, Leo was surrounded by a burst of flames, and the terrifying sword blade was surrounded by terrifying crimson flames and slashed straight down.
The high temperature melted the air, and terrifying power suddenly appeared. On the other side, Captain Cary also roared, and blocked the huge silver-plated broadsword.
boom……
A loud noise was heard, and the ground cracked. Captain Cary himself felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He spat out a mouthful of blood and took a few steps back.
"Sir, you..." Captain Cary wiped the blood from his mouth and said with a somewhat helpless expression.
Although he has been greatly transformed, he is still stuck at the eighth level limit. The ninth level is a threshold. Even at four times the training speed provided by Leo, he still has not broken through that barrier.
However, according to Leo's opinion, the opponent should not be far away from reaching the ninth level. There is no war at the moment, and Leo is too lazy to use energy points to break that small threshold for the opponent.
To be continued...
