Chapter 1796: Taking advantage of others
Five minutes later, the woman wearing an eyepatch named Xizhao came back, holding a 'lottery ticket' in her hand that was equal to the entire activity funds of the two of them.
Forty-five minutes later, the game ended. Rebel Hopkins had the last laugh in this long and fierce battle, even though her fragile body was already crumbling, and even her weapons were forcibly damaged. He broke the handle, but he still became the winner of the battle and was promoted to the 513th rank of the Prince's Courtyard Arena.
"To be honest...this rank is beyond her personal ability."
The alchemist stood in front of the one-way glass of the box with his hands behind his hands, looking down at the bloody man who was holding his hand. Rebecca, who limped towards the player area amidst cheers, said calmly: "After this, if she continues to compete in the high-level area, then every opponent she faces will probably be Half-step epic, even if the accident rate of this arena is lower than other counterparts, it is still too dangerous.”
"The odds...the odds are seven...seven...more than seven times..."
Completely ignoring what the alchemist said above, Xizhao, who didn't even hear a word, stared blankly at the hand in his hand. Zhang was worth 30,000 gold coins not long ago, but now it has jumped from excellent to epic quality. The note stated that the 'lottery ticket' was worth 226,549 gold coins, and the eye was exposed. The boss stared, and his whole person fell into a rather confused state.
“Alas.”
Sighing at the unseen virtue of his companion, the alchemist turned to Xizhao and said: “Since the principal is activity funds, then take out five Thousands of dollars to fill in the budget, I Leave 150,000 and the remaining 26,000 gold coins will be used as errand fees for you.” Seriously!”
"Well, it doesn't matter."
The alchemist nodded and said in a very indifferent tone: "After redeeming the bonus, just keep the change yourself, and then ask the other side to give you a steam ticket worth 150,000 yuan. Just bring the consortium certificate and a gold coin chamber of commerce certificate worth 50,000 to me."
Xizhao blinked and hesitated for a while before asking cautiously: "You really gave me the change. Me? Are you sure it’s a fraction of twenty-six thousand?”
“That’s right”
The alchemist continued to nod and said calmly: “So go get the money. .”
"This... you are so smart, you should know how much more than 20,000 gold coins are worth, right?" It’s a small number!”
The alchemist sighed and pinched his eyebrows helplessly: “I’m not short of money.”
“Then you are not a rich second generation. "
Xizhao raised her hands on her hips and assumed the posture of an older man: "I know Xiaofang, you are young and promising now, but even so, we can't treat money too little, you Take a look at the foreign stars. Each and every one of them is not worth hundreds of millions of dollars and euros, but because of poor financial management skills and spending money lavishly, many of them ended up with families and wives and children when they finally couldn't play anymore. Break up, oh, by the way, you don’t have a girlfriend now, and getting married in the future will also be an expense. I have to remind you, young people must learn to be reasonable..."
"First of all, Xizhao, you are only seven months and fifteen days older than me, and your life experience is not enough to give me comprehensive suggestions and warnings."
The alchemist calmly interrupted this. A colleague who has been working with me for more than two years and whose good-natured attributes are seriously exceeded the standard, shrugged and said: "Secondly, although I was not born into a wealthy family, I consider myself to be a person who is quite good at financial management. To give an example... …Well, last month I made about 100,000 U.S. dollars by speculating on currencies on the black platform and playing with leverage. Last month, I won 80,000 U.S. dollars by buying online football lottery. I lost some money on stocks. After all, no one thought that Black Sun would actually It was revealed that the executive director of that company had a cross-dressing habit, but he only lost two thousand five thousand, which was still acceptable."
Xizhao: "..."
"So, the reason why I am so generous is that I have made a lot recently and want to break the bank and eliminate disasters for myself."
The alchemist smiled and said leisurely: "I am a very superstitious person. People, so I always prefer to believe in the law of conservation of character. Can you accept this reason? ”
Xizhao, who had just reacted, immediately widened her one eye and shouted: "What a ghost! Putting aside stocks, the two things you did above are most likely illegal!"
"Well, so let's think of the more than 20,000 yuan as hush money for you."
After the alchemist said this, he stepped forward and walked briskly past the setting sun: "Then, I will wait for you outside first."

Game time AM09:39
Northwest Continent, Principality of Freya, Lower District of the Duchy of Ellet, Triumph Memorial Square
"Goo~Goo~Goo~"
On the bench next to the fountain, wearing Wearing a simple linen blouse, a middle-aged man with a decent appearance was leaning over with great difficulty, imitating the sounds of certain birds while trying to feed the grains in his hands to the chubby ornamental birds in front of him. .
"Don't waste your efforts."
A somewhat hunched old man walked over from the side, glanced at the man with his gloomy eyes and said coldly: "These The birds have been fed to their mouths for a long time, and they don’t even eat black bread, let alone this low-quality wheat that they don’t know where to get.”
As a well-known 'intermediary' in this area, the old man Fu Deng, who has many things to do, actually doesn't really want to take this trip today. If it weren't for the other party, he would have an 'explanation' anyway. In addition, he originally made an appointment with him this morning. His business partner was suddenly delayed and couldn't keep the appointment. At best, Fuden would ask his incompetent assistant, who was also his son, to come over and deal with it.
In fact, Fuden regrets it now.
A man who tried to feed the letter birds with 'Mi Mai' in the Triumph Memorial Square, he really didn't know what he had to say to this kind of thing.
But fortunately, he doesn’t need to worry too much about this -
“I’m sorry for asking you to take time out of your busy schedule to come see me.”
He stuffed the rice and wheat in his hand back into the bag. The middle-aged man stroked his stubble and said carefully: "I think there may be some misunderstandings in the previous communication between the two parties, although it happened two days ago." I have asked our people, but it is just a one-sided statement after all, so I just want to find out from you where the error occurred.”
As the saying goes, don’t hit the smiling person. Although the other party's attitude was very polite, even a little 'humble', Fuden did not show too much aggression. He just said lightly: "According to your words, it is obvious that there is an error in the price."
"Uh... I remember seeing that contract in person."
The man scratched his hair and said awkwardly: "I generally remember the terms above. If we are like this If you do complete the task in accordance with the employer's requirements, and always abide by the several constraints established before, so that the task is completed at a level of no less than 80% of the expected standard, you will settle a total of 66 A commission of one thousand gold coins, right?”
Fu Deng nodded lightly: “That’s right”
"Then, the reason why you are only willing to pay us one-twelfth of the original reward, which is 500 gold coins..."
The man pursed his lips with a very uneasy expression: "It's because of us Was there any huge omission in the execution of the task?”
“Yes, huge omission, of course”
Fuden responded absently, even. There is no point in talking about it.
But he didn’t tell me, but the other party had to ask, so he had no choice but to confirm: “So, can you tell me what the omission is?”
"As a mercenary leader who works in Freya, you have asked me a bit too many questions."
Fuden glanced at the other party, then breathed lightly and said coldly : "But... well, since you insist on asking for clarification, I will tell you where the omission is."
The other party immediately nodded his head, sincerely. "I'm all ears."
"If I remember correctly, Viscount Battle's commission is to get rid of the 'Wildfire Party' who kidnapped his daughter two months ago."
Fu Deng narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice: "And the so-called 'get rid of' should mean killing them all, leaving no one behind."
"That's right." The middle-aged man nodded immediately, then frowned and said: "So what you mean is that we didn't..."
"That's right, you didn't eradicate it. The Wildfire Party.”
Fuden’s mouth curved with a cold arc, and he said solemnly: “According to the roster we found, there should be seventy-five active members of the Wildfire Party, but the bodies you left behind... ...There are only sixty-three.”
The man’s pupils suddenly shrank, and he said in shock: “Twelve people are missing!”
"Yes, twelve people."
Fuden snorted and paused lightly on the ground with his cane: "I have asked someone to tell you the result a long time ago, but you have to insist on it. Do you understand now? If according to the contract, you could not get a single copper coin due to such omissions, it is because of my kindness that I took it upon myself to give you five hundred gold coins. "
It seems to be someone. A man who was the boss of a mercenary group pursed his lips and murmured: "So that's what happened..."
"That's what happened."
Fu Deng stood up. , turned around and glanced at the opponent: "But although you caused a big mess, you were actually quite clean and tidy. I also know that it is not easy to make a living now, so I just shouldered the responsibility. Alas. , it’s better to do this, from now on..."
"Where did you find the roster?"
"Huh?"
"Well, I was just asking."
The man who sat still was a little embarrassed. He scratched his cheek and said with a smile: "After all, we have already put him I've looked through our strongholds and couldn't find the roster you just mentioned."
Fuden snorted impatiently: "So you might as well ask those under you why they work. It would be so careless! ”
"So, can I see that roster?"
"No."
"Eh? No?"
"Because of that thing I have already disposed of it. Otherwise, there is no way to explain it to the employer. After all, what he asked for is to eradicate the roots. I have also seen how many corpses there are in total. If he knows that the number does not add up, can you afford this responsibility? ”
“That’s it”
The man nodded with a sudden look on his face, then stood up and extended his right hand to Fulden: "I understand, Mr. Fulden is worthy of being his middleman, and his experience is really rich."
" Huh.”
Because I think this mercenary group is quite useful, I plan to make it my long-term tool. Feng didn't lose face, and shook hands with the man in front of him expressionlessly: "I'll see you later... huh?"
The man who grabbed Fu Deng's right hand and didn't let go smiled. Asked: "Sorry, I have one last question here, Mr. Fulden."
"What do you mean..."
"Can you tell me the names of the thirteen fish that were written on the list but were not killed by us?"
"You..."
"Please answer, Mr. Fullerton, this is really important to me."
"Who would remember that kind of thing? I ..."
"Haha, in order not to leave any clues, you are not even willing to make up some names on the spot. You are really watertight. This stubborn spirit of knowing that you are lying but insisting on sticking to the end, from a certain To a certain extent, it is also a necessary quality for a big man.”
"Luseil! You..."
"I'm different. I'm not a big shot, so this kind of thing won't trouble me at all. For example..."
Lusail grinned and threw his arm to the ground: "Fuden Gavilan~"
"!?"
"Kavi Horst."< br>
Along with several figures with cloaks decorated with a large number of cyan patterns and an arrow-like blue bird printed on the back, with faces shrouded in hoods, another bloody arm was thrown to the ground.
Kavi Horst is the bodyguard that Fuden hired with a lot of money to protect him. He is an assassin with epic strength. The tattoo on the arm on the ground is the same as the tattoo on Kavi’s right arm. The devil flower is exactly the same.
“Kurtu Gavilan.”
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh? On the ground, its owner is the only son of Fuleng. Although he is not up to par, he will still inherit Fuleng's mantle in the future.
At the same time, under the dual stimulation of pain and some strong emotion, Fuden finally began to scream, making a heart-breaking high-pitched noise.
"Milly Alfonso."
A thin arm, an old friend from Fulden, old Milly who is good at finding fat sheep in the mercenary market.
"Sain Regner."
A white arm comes from a lover who is twenty years younger than Fulden.
"..."
"Ahhhhh...ahhhhhhhh!!!"
The names were read out one after another, no more, no less, exactly thirteen.
"Including you, my friend, there are a total of thirteen people..."
Lousel leaned down and smiled at Fulden, who was lying on the ground and had shouted hoarsely. ——
"Every hand that has touched those 5,500 gold coins is here, literally."
