069 The potential of cooperation with night roses!
Whether it was Minette's reputation or the dangerous aura exuding from her body, Lobach felt frightened.
In order to ensure Ying Tianyi's safety, Lobach did not act foolishly on the spot. Instead, he quickly ran downstairs, found Ying Tianyi, and whispered Minette's situation to him.
In this regard, Minette did not stop her, and Sothea didn't care, as if she didn't care much whether Minette's identity would be exposed.
After hearing the news conveyed by Lobach, Ying Tian raised his head and looked at the bar on the first floor, just in time to meet Minette's eyes.
Minette raised her glass slightly and gestured to Ying Tianyi, with a mysterious and indifferent smile on her lips.
Ying Tianyi also smiled and nodded at Minette, showing no sign of hostility. However, Minette was slightly stunned and didn't know what he meant.
Instructing the others to continue helping with the dishes, Ying Tian summoned Natalia and returned to the bar on the first floor.
Under Minette's interested gaze, Ying Tian walked straight up to her and said without hesitation: "Sister Minette, I want to entrust you with two things!"
Note that Ying Tian calls Minette not the polite "Miss" or the polite "President", but the affectionate "Sister".
The indifference on Minette's face faded, she smiled and said: "Entrust me to take care of it, the commission will not be discounted, just tell me!"
"The first thing is, don't reveal my identity for the time being, except for Sister Sosia and Sherlock. The second thing..." Ying Tianyi turned his head and looked at Natalia beside him, and said seriously: "
Help me investigate the situation of Baron Huler's family on the northwest border of the empire, and try to be as detailed as possible!"
Originally, Ying Tianyi planned to entrust Ye Rose Guild to help him investigate some matters, but he didn't expect that Minette, an "old acquaintance" in the game, turned out to be President Ye Rose, and he even came to his door.
According to Ying Tianyi's analysis, the aliens living in Hedunmar should be relatively united. This can be inferred from the relationship between Sherlock, Minette and Sosia.
Human beings have always rejected foreign races. Even in the harmonious Hutton Mar, human beings are subconsciously unwilling to interact closely with foreign races. In contrast, foreign races are not willing to get along with humans because humans are too utilitarian and untrustworthy.
Already.
However, Ying Tianyi is an anomaly among humans. He is wary of humans, but calm and sincere towards aliens. Sothea and Sherlock feel this the most, and are therefore willing to accept Ying Tianyi as their human brother and friend.
Minette observed Ying Tianyi for a long time and roughly analyzed his character, so she allowed him to get close to Sothea and Sherlock, otherwise she, a cold-blooded killer, would have killed him long ago.
"Sealing information costs one thousand gold coins a year. Investigating information is cheaper, only five hundred gold coins." Minette calculated for a moment and said, "Pay half the deposit as a down payment. Regardless of success or failure, the deposit is non-refundable. After the commission is completed, you pay the other half.
commission."
"No problem!" Ying Tian agreed readily, raised his hand and put the two black cloth bags that appeared out of thin air on the bar, and said: "Here are fifteen hundred gold coins. I paid in full in advance. I just hope that the news will come soon.
Send some back."
"Ha!" Minette chuckled with a joking look in her eyes and said, "Kid, don't play this trick with your sister. I'm not one of those little gangsters in the back streets. I can tell at a glance whether you are sincere or not."
Minette saw through the little trick of showing off sincerity, and Ying Tian didn't feel any embarrassment at all. He smiled and said: "Since you have such a bright eye, sister, it's best. I may go on an adventure in Grand Forest in a few days. If I'm not here,
Please tell Sister Sothea the news."
Looking at Ying Tianyi's dark eyes, Minette suddenly frowned and said with some confusion: "Strange, what exactly is that look in your eyes? Why do I always feel that you have seen me before and are very familiar with me?
,How is this going?"
Nonsense, I used to play games and see you every day. Sometimes when I was bored, I would deliberately go to the back streets to look at your avatar and admire the deep ravine on your chest. Is it not familiar to you?
However, Minette's keen perception also made Ying Tianyi slightly surprised. He didn't expect that this dark-skinned sister really had a burning gaze!
"Uh... don't tell me, I feel the same way." Sherlock also joined in the fun, adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said, "But it feels pretty good, like meeting an old friend for many years!
"
"Sometimes fate is so magical. We are two people who met for the first time, but they fell in love at first sight." Sister Sothea elegantly picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said with a smile: "I like his eyes as clear as the stars very much, and even more so.
The longing shown in his eyes. Minette, you'd better not bully him!"
It turns out that Sister Sothea also saw the strange thoughts in Ying Tian's eyes. It was a longing for the game, his hometown, and his parents. Now that they are in a foreign country, they have nothing to pin their thoughts on. The NPCs they are familiar with in the game,
Naturally, Ying Tian felt close to him.
This is human nature!
"Well, actually I don't hate that feeling either!" Seeing Sothea defending Ying Tianyi so much, Minette shrugged helplessly and said, "It's just that this little guy is so mysterious that I can't help but be curious. Right.
Okay, little guy, can you give me some of the magical potion you made?"
Sure enough, the attentive Minette discovered some little secrets.
"I'm sorry, if Sister Sothea or Sherlock ask me for it, I will definitely give it to them, but you can't do it yet." Ying Tianyi shook his head, clearly demarcating Minette.
Sothea's love for Ying Tianyi was unreserved, and her unconventional temperament made Ying Tianyi couldn't help but let down his guard and recognize her as his sister.
Although Shylock is cunning and stingy, he is sincere towards his friends and very trustworthy. Ying Tianyi has already recognized him as an old friend.
Only Minette is too mysterious and feels very dangerous, so Ying Tianyi doesn't dare to trust her yet.
"Are you discriminating against dark elves?" Minette's blue eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold and dangerous aura immediately surrounded Ying Tianyi.
The Dark Elves are not a good-tempered race. They are cold, cruel, irritable and warlike by nature. They do not like to play tricks and intrigues, and often like to solve problems directly through combat.
Lobach, who was always keeping an eye on Minette, and Natalya, who was slightly excited because she would soon learn the news about her parents. Seeing Minette showing hostility, the two of them grabbed the hilts of their swords without hesitation and were on full alert.
.
Ying Tian raised his hand to stop the two women beside him, and without hesitation took out a small glass bottle and threw it to Minette. The bright red blood-like liquid in the bottle rippled slightly, which was the blood medicine he had refined with his own hands.
The alchemy knowledge passed down to him by the game system is very simple, only the refining methods of various game potions, and even many potions cannot be made due to the lack of materials in reality.
He probably browsed the alchemy books he bought from Norton and discovered that the alchemy in this world is more advanced than he imagined, and even some items and equipment can be refined through special techniques.
However, game potions also have a big advantage, that is, they are easy to make and have powerful effects, which are far beyond the comparison of various potions in reality.
Ying Tianyi took the time to refine a lot of blood medicine and medicine to relieve abnormal conditions, and put them in military kettles for later use. He also separated some into glass vials to deal with the current situation.
He has never thought about selling game potions for profit, and he has no time to study the alchemy of this world. With his own alchemy knowledge, he is self-sufficient.
Minette uncorked the bottle, smelled the blood medicine that had no odor at all, poured out a little more and tasted it, her eyes flashed, and she couldn't help but praise: "It's amazing, it can directly repair body damage and replenish the lost blood.
, it takes effect quickly and has no side effects, far beyond the comparison of other wound medicines.”
After speaking, Minette raised her head and drank the blood medicine in the bottle, closed her eyes and felt it for a while, then said with a smile on her lips: "It only took me a moment to recover more than half of my injuries, but the amount was a bit insufficient.
Give me a few more bottles and it will be considered as a commission for helping you block the information for a year and investigate the news."
Ying Tianyi was slightly startled. He didn't expect that someone as powerful as Minette could be injured. Then wouldn't her enemy be even stronger?
Quickly calculating in his mind, Ying Tianyi took out an iron military kettle from the soul item space and threw it to Minette, saying: "Drink medicine according to the injury. Don't drink too much at one time to avoid waste. Here is five years of information
I don’t think you can bargain with the blockade fee!”
Minette opened the kettle and took a few sips. She felt her injuries healed quickly. The smile on her lips became thicker and she said, "He is indeed the younger brother that Sothea likes. He is flexible and flexible, has a long-term vision, and is a qualified little man. Then I wish us a happy cooperation in the future."
!”
Ying Tianyi fell in love with Minette's intelligence system and killer organization, and Minette also fell in love with the blood medicine refined by Ying Tianyi. Although the two did not engage in verbal or physical exchanges, they also exchanged glances with each other.
There was a mental game of chess.
Faced with Minette's forceful persecution, Ying Tianyi chose to be patient, which was a sign of understanding the current situation. When he discovered that Minette needed blood medicine, he immediately hinted at his cooperation, which was a sign of foresight. That's why Minette praised him for his ability to bend, stretch, and have a long-term vision!
Sothea smiled as she watched her younger brother playing chess with his friend, without interfering, and was very satisfied with their choices.
Sherlock also found that his new friend was very special and was even more satisfied with him.
After taking back the two gold coin bags on the bar, Ying Tianyi and Minette officially started cooperation, allowing him to gain access to a huge intelligence system in addition to the empire's resources.
After drinking a few drinks with Minette, the dangerous black-skinned sister, Ying Tianyi took Lobach out late at night again, considering the status of himself and those around him.
In the old town of Hutton Mar, in the basement of a hidden residential building, there is a private arena where people can place bets and fights, which is equivalent to a black boxing match.
As soon as Ying Tian arrived here, he used a special code to meet with the people in charge of the arena and ordered them to deliver some news back to the empire.
The first is the issue of annihilation in the southern valley. Originally, Ying Tianyi planned to let the Imperial Army investigate by himself, but now that Minette knows the details, there is no guarantee that others will also know. In order to clear his suspicion, he had to
Take the initiative to send the revised message back.
The second is Lobach's identity. She was originally a squad leader of the Knights. If she did not return in time, she would be treated as a deserter. Ying Tianyi used his authority to transfer her to the special team of the elite Knights and became his subordinate.
.In this way, Lobach can justifiably follow him.
As for whether Captain Creval would have any suspicions, to be honest, Ying Tianyi really didn't take him seriously.
By the way, the two leaders of the underground arena are the spies sent by the Knights to the Principality of Belmare. One is named Will Crewe, the other is named Green Lind...
ps: Someone should be able to recognize the origins of the above two people...
