"Once a year, what else?" Attila looked through the contracts—the pages of light that Azure had sent through the visitors' system—and asked, without looking up.

Fang Yu was very embarrassed: "I have to help make the magic guide." ”

Moving away from the huge sound source of the Difference Gear, the party came to the other side of the Adventurer's Guild Hall, which seemed much quieter. After congratulating Luo Yu and Kita, Attila began to check the contract with the help of Sky Blue.

Fang Plover knew that his heart was weak, and he followed behind Miss Elf like a quail.

"Making a magician?"

"Deduction of rental fees—"

"Lending?"

"This kind of lease relationship is very common between guilds, Sister Attila," Tianlan interjected, but asked curiously, "It's just that what is the duration of the lease and what is the affiliation, Brother Ed, you are not stupid on this, are you?" ”

Fang Yu shook his head, although he suffered a loss, there was still no problem in the general direction, after all, the most important thing in the lease relationship was the question of the two belongings, and he himself understood this.

Since Eugudora had specifically assured him in this regard, and there were special clauses in the contract that bound and specified that Luo Yu and Kita were actually regarded as members of the adventure party when they were in the adventure party, and their guild status was only a potential identity.

It's just that Fang Yu knew that the 'Gray Lady' proposed such a deal was naturally not to take advantage of him, but to let the adventure group get in touch with Tapolis.

This is also what Momiji told him when he was in Dorifin.

This kind of alliance between you and me makes him have to consider favoring Tapolis at some times, as Eugudora said, the Oak Knights are the 'maiden family' of Kita and Luo Yu after all-

Only then did he understand that the other party meant this.

No one will suffer a dark loss and be happy, Fang Yu will naturally be annoyed after understanding this. In fact, he is not without vigilance, but he also understands that this is actually the reason why he can't get the lead in negotiations, after all, he and the adventure group are not strong enough, and they lack the hole cards to bargain.

And the final decision between Luo Yu and Ji Ta is still in the hands of the other party, and the relationship between the trainees and the guild, Fang Yu naturally understands.

"I'm sorry."

Fang Yu whispered an apology to the others, and his face was a little hot—he had actually suffered a lot along the way, and Miss Scarpe had played a good game for him to eat and lodging. But then he was not the same as today, today he is the leader of a team, and now he is not only responsible for himself, but also for his decisions.

"It's okay," Sky Blue waved her hand with a big grin, "Actually, it's not a big deal, we can still think of some ways to deal with this contract-"

Before she could finish speaking, she was glared at by Miss Elf, and glared back at the second half of the sentence. Tianlan stuck out her tongue in fright, and could only give Fang Yu a look, indicating that she had done her best.

Attila glanced at Fang Yu before saying, "There is no need to apologize, after all, we all hope that Jita and Luo Yu can stay, but the next time you make a decision, remember not to be so hasty." ”

Fang Yu nodded, he already understood this deeply, Miss Attila, Sky Blue and Sylvid, the next time you negotiate with you, you must remember to bring any of them.

It was probably after the successful bargaining with Miss Sophie in the Dragon Trial that I was a little overly inflated, and now that I think about it, Miss Sophie is really a good person with integrity.

And he himself is not this material at all-

He also knew why Miss Attila was suddenly so serious, perhaps because he thought of Kidd, they might have really resembled, exactly the same recklessness—as his cousin had said of him, savages.

He sighed, just thinking of Miss Purser, these things should have been handled by the other party—he looked back and saw Sylvid standing aside, only tilting his head and smiling at him.

Those talking eyes seemed to indicate that they didn't mind.

But it's strange -

Fang Yu had gradually begun to become somewhat familiar with the temperament of this noble lady, and when she said that she didn't mind, she was actually very mindful, and she was ready to fight a cold war with herself.

He couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Others, by contrast, are much more straightforward.

'Lady Papamo' whispered two words about the other party's cunning, and for a time made Luo Yu and Kita very embarrassed, but was immediately reprimanded by Attila and Sky Blue, and from then on they became ostriches and did not dare to speak again.

The box was the same as before, and he opened his mouth to help the captain get justice, as if he was afraid that Fang Yu would not lose face enough, so he was persuaded by others to come down and save the last bit of dignity of the latter as the captain.

And Attila and the others each gave a roll of their eyes, and then continued to ask other questions: "Who is the material to make the magic guide, and what are the requirements?" ”

"Naturally, they came up with the materials, where did we get any materials?" Fang Yu replied as a matter of course.

He looked a little helpless: "The requirements are not high, only twenty pieces a quarter......"

In Yugudora's opinion, 20 pieces of A-grade or higher quality in a quarter is already considered a 'lot'. However, Tianlan listened to it and said softly.

"Strange," she whispered, "the other party seems to be merciful, if I were the 'Gray Lady', I would have deceived the foolish brother Ed as a wrongdoer." ”

Fang Yu glared at this little girl angrily, who is the wronged boss?

"Of course we'll have to pay for the materials—" he replied angrily.

"Nonsense," Tianlan rolled her eyes helplessly, "Brother Ed, don't take me for a fool, okay?" Of course I know, but do you know that the material is the material, and the market price is the market price, which are two different things, okay? ”

She came from a top family like the twelve-colored irise, so she was naturally familiar with these things, and she raised her fingers and calculated to him: "They want you to make a magic guide, and the corresponding thing you need to provide is a complete list of materials, right?" And there's no attrition rate on it, right? ”

"I'm not an alchemist and I know that any life profession crafting is attritional, and if this is not specifically mentioned, it is usually half the attrition of the default standard. But the standard here is the standard in commercial production, and it is formulated to calculate the approximate profit margin of the client——"

"This is just one of them, and the complete list of materials for a magic guide, how can it be so easy to obtain? Sometimes hundreds of materials are involved, some are common, some are rare, some are large and some are small, and collecting and storing materials requires manpower and material resources, which will save us I don't know how much time. ”

"Generally speaking, it is very rare for the client to commit to providing materials. To put it simply, Brother Ed has seen how many buyers are looking for manufacturers to produce products, and they still need to provide their own materials? ”

Fang Yu opened his mouth, only to realize that he had made a proposal that seemed strange to the other party, and what was even more strange was that the other party actually agreed. He thought for a while, and then found a reason: "But our level is like this, if they don't provide materials, won't they wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Moon,"

"Brother Ed, you were really sold and you have to help with the money," Tianlan sighed very cutely: "Of course they can afford to wait, they have signed a long-term agreement with us for the alliance team, and they can't afford to wait for this time?" ”

Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, he only thought that Tapolis was about to attack the second-tier guild, and he used this to bargain with the other party, but he didn't expect this layer. It seems that this is exactly the case, Tapolis's handling of Luo Yu and Kita makes it clear that this will be a long-term cooperation, how can the other party be in a hurry?

"But why do they do it?"

"The reason, of course, is to show goodwill."

"Gestures?"

Fang Yu was stunned, the other party played him around, he really couldn't see that the 'gray lady' had a reason to show favor to him.

Tianlan couldn't help laughing: "My fool Brother Ed, that 'Gray Lady' really showed the blind this time, she just wants to leave you in this way, this is a favor for you, but it is actually a means to cultivate you." ”

Sylvid on the side also covered her mouth and smiled lightly, and then replied: "Mr. Captain, it should be clear that craftsmen grow up in the accumulation of practical experience and knowledge, why do real genius craftsmen often come from the Craftsman Association and some larger forces?" This is because an alchemist's growth often requires the consumption of a large amount of resources. ”

"That 'young lady' wants to use this means to make you actually funded by Tapolis to become a top alchemist or battle craftsman trained by Tapolis. It's one way to pull people straight up like Miss Momiji, but this kind of moisturizing and silent way is also a means. ”

Her tone was very soft, as gentle and nice as ever, but when she spoke of that 'young lady', Fang Yu clearly felt that she had increased her tone a little, and when she spoke of 'means', the smile in her sly eyes was about to overflow.

Coming and coming, Fang Yu certainly didn't think that this was Sylvid's gesture of goodwill to him, and he hurriedly nodded his head again and again like a quail to show his agreement with the other party's statement.

It seems that he has a very strong desire to survive**.

"So what do we do?" At the end, he couldn't help but ask: "Just refuse them, we will find the materials ourselves, of course, we have to add money, ten pieces of equipment in a quarter does not seem to be a big deal for us." ”

"Of course not."

The three opposing voices came from three women, big and small.

"Brother Ed, are you a fool?" It's sky blue.

"Not only that, but the captain has to ask for some good, rare materials, after all, you get what you pay for—" Sylvid explained to her captain calmly.

Attila concluded by concluding, "Azure and Sylvid are right, and if we understand this, we don't really owe Tapolis anything. We are allies, and the alliances are naturally mutually beneficial and equal. ”

Fang Yu only looked at the three 'wise' ladies a little speechlessly.

Suddenly, I had the idea that I was really a brainless barbarian.

However, the group had already walked to the other side of the Adventurers' General Union to meet with Tapolis's team in Goland, who was waiting there, and although the two sides had already exchanged contracts, they still had to exchange a physical document.

Although there is no need to be in such a hurry to exchange documents, the two parties are not far apart, so they agreed to meet here. There, Fang Yu and the others also really met the leader of this team for the first time, the famous 'Gray Lady', Miss Yugudora.

She herself is even more petite than what she saw in the video, especially the businessman part-time swordsman lady who has a big sword behind her, which makes her look like a little girl in contrast.

Her actual height is also a head shorter than Fang Yuan, and when she saw Fang Yuan, she generously stretched out her hand to him: "I'm sorry, I used some small means in the transaction just now, Mr. Ed should be very mindful, right?" ”

Fang Yu didn't expect her to say this, so she couldn't help but be stunned and looked back at the others, but the three 'wise' ladies didn't say anything.

He had no choice but to turn around and nod his head.

But Eugudora seemed to see what he was thinking, and smiled, "Actually, I didn't mean to deceive Mr. Eddard, but just to complete some of the tasks of the goddess every quarter—"

She smiled embarrassedly, swept the blonde hair around her ears, and also showed a very troubled look: "The goddess is very willful, and those of us who are electors can't do anything after all. And Momiji also admires Ed, and I actually happened to know some of Mr. Ed's strength, so I came up with such a strategy. ”

Fang Yu's heart jumped slightly when she heard her say this, this 'gray lady' specially said that she also knew some of his strength, what did she mean?

But when he looked at the other side, he saw Eugudora winking at him, which meant that you know what I know. As soon as Fang Yu looked at it, he understood that the other party had already guessed the relationship between himself and Char.

But he didn't know if it was the news leaked by Momiji in his description of him, or if the other party guessed it alone, but this alone was enough to make him a little vigilant.

"Miss Eugudora......" he asked.

But the other party shook his head: "It has nothing to do with Momiji, I guessed it myself." After all, you used that identity when you were on Traveler's Rest, and strangely enough, very few people knew about this news, and I only learned about it after investigating Traveler's Rest. ”

She also smiled lightly: "But I haven't told anyone, including anyone else in the guild, if you say that, Mr. Ed shouldn't be angry with me, right?" ”

Fang Yu smiled bitterly, how could it be so easy not to get angry, of course he also understood that what the other party said was also to win himself over. But he shook his head, but replied, "I know what you mean, Miss Eugudora—but I just want to be honest with each other, after all, I have fought alongside the Knights of Tapolis, and Miss Eugudora does not need to use these means. ”

He replied, "As you said, Kita and Luo Yu were also born in Tapolis, in fact, whether they are Tapolis identity or not in the future, it is impossible for them to completely ignore the guild they came from, Miss Yugudora should understand this, right?" ”

Eugudora nodded slightly.

But she wrinkled her nose, she actually didn't believe what this little guy said in her heart, the news that came back from Momiji, this little guy was full of distrust of the big guild, and it would be strange if she didn't want to have a way to keep the other party.

Ever since she learned that the other party was the same person as the genius boy on Fenris Island who flashed like a comet, she had actually made up her mind that no matter what the opinions of the guild leaders were, she must find a way to get the other party to have a relationship with Tapolis.

In fact, Zi Feiyu said that the guild leaders had already decided whether Luo Yu and Ji Ta would stay or not, how could it be that simple? Before today, they didn't know about this matter at all, and even if the news came back so quickly, it was impossible for the top management to make a decision immediately.

In fact, she instructed the other party to reply like this, the purpose was to let Fang Yu let down his guard.

However, her methods of cutting first and then playing, including letting the guild's two core trainees join the other people's team, these things have not been agreed by the guild after all, and now they have been determined in the form of a contract with the goddess, and they cannot be changed in any way.

It's just that after she returns, she will have to report in front of the higher-ups, and maybe she will be punished for it, and the thought of the salary to be confiscated makes Yugudora's small eyebrows wrinkled.

"Hey, who told me to care about the guild."

The 'little girl' on the outside sighed secretly and spread her hands helplessly.

However, the negotiations between Tapolis and Fang Ou's adventure party came to an end, and the two sides exchanged texts before politely saying goodbye to each other. Yugudora didn't drag her feet at all, and first gave Kita and Luo Yu a guarantee of the identity and authority of the Electors, and promised to solve the problem of the glow material equipment within a week.

Fang Yu is not worried about this, after all, the contract is guaranteed by the goddess - and the permission has been unlocked, Ji Ta and Luo Yu have already separated from the identity of sightseers, this process is actually unlocking the level cap and the restrictions of combat duties.

The preparation of the so-called Aluminescence Equipment, in fact, is once again in tune with the Glow Matter, which is to eliminate their information records during the tourist period, which is systematically equivalent to eliminating and reassigning all the experience of the first five levels.

These experiences are not obtained out of thin air, nor are they transformed from the original level, in fact, all the information of the first five levels is collected by the Star Gate Port side, and new information is provided to complete the experience of these five levels.

The whole process is as Yugudora said, the handling fee is very expensive, and high-dimensional information is the first hard currency of all countries in Xingmen Port in the era after Xingmen.

However, if you unlock the permissions, you can continue to increase your level after that. Moreover, Eugudora also provided a very good magic wand, and a letter of recommendation for further study to Luo Yu, the letter of recommendation was from the Goland Elementalist Association, and the recipient was the vice president of the Elementalist Association, which can be said to be a top-level entry prop.

Although the Elemental Envoy, like the Alchemist, can be employed in the major professional unions and the Adventurer's Guild, the basic skills that can be learned after joining the company are different. Just as Fang Plover was an apprentice of Kapka and Rodell, it naturally took on the school mark of the Lorraindale region.

And if Luo Yu joins through this letter of recommendation, he will be an apprentice of the Kalin-Ishurian First Elemental Envoy School, the Precision One School - and maybe he can also learn some proprietary skills under the guidance of the vice president.

This is a good thing that even Fang Yu has not enjoyed, and of course, generally speaking, only geniuses specially cultivated by the Grand Guild have such treatment.

However, Fang Yu was still a little strange, he originally thought that Luo Yu and Ji Ta were just two of the many trainees competing for the position of official caller in Tapolis, but now looking at the other party's thorough preparations, it seems that this is not the case.

At the same time, Yugudora also assured them that Kita's magic book would be delivered in the near future.

Fang Yu was still a little strange when he heard this, and asked if the other party would provide the magic guide book to Ji Ta? Unexpectedly, Zifeiyu on the side couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this, and replied, "Who else would it give it to?" ”

Only this sentence made Fang Yu stay in his heart.

He had a vague feeling that what he had kidnapped was not as simple as the two trainees of Tapolis as he had imagined—because Kita was just one of the many contenders for the magic book.

After this deal, Tapolis's correct reaction seemed to be that he should leave the magic book to the others.

And when Yugudora left, she smiled and said to him: "Luo Yu is a promising successor of Feiyu, you can be regarded as a tiger's tooth extraction this time, cultivate him well, that little guy is very promising." ”

Fang Yu was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but look at Luo Yu, no wonder the latter looked a little cramped in front of Zi Feiyu, it turned out that there was still this relationship.

The Iron Council's Wizard was very cold to him, he originally thought that he had abducted the other party's sister, but he didn't expect the problem to be Luo Yu.

The latter seemed to hear the two talking, and looked away with some embarrassment.

Fang Yu couldn't help but shake his head.

It was only after the people of Tapolis had left that he finally had time to ask Attila and the others about the mysterious mercenary - he had vaguely heard Sky Blue mention it before, and it seemed that everyone had accidentally found some clues from the Adventurers' Guild.

However, I was busy with Luo Yu and Ji Ta's affairs before, and I didn't ask about it for a while, so I remembered this matter again.

Listening to his inquiry, Tianlan also remembered this matter, and quickly replied: "That was investigated by Sister Shesta, she is really powerful, and suggested that we go back and check the information about the next mission left by Miss Sylvid at that time——"

"Brother Ed, do you know that the Adventurer's Guild will record the general information of each team's mission. Miss Sylwell, after her first adventure, agreed with the others that the next operation would take place in about half a year, and most of them agreed to the proposal. ”

Hearing this, Fang Yu understood, and the two sides reached an agreement, so this information must have been recorded in the Adventurer's Guild - he couldn't help but look at Miss Attila: "So there is a record, right?" ”

The elven girl nodded: "The adventurer's guild will monitor the adventurer's fulfillment of the promise made to the employer, so when someone finds these people to start a new mission, it is necessary to clarify the start and end time of the mission - in case of a breach." ”

"But if that person wants to hide his identity, he can completely bypass the Adventurer's Guild and go directly to those people, right?" The box on the side listened to it, and asked a rare and somewhat puzzled question.

"He can't get around," Fang Yu understood the truth: "The task of going to the depths of the Traveler's Swamp is not simple, wouldn't it seem ill-intentioned for the other party to bypass the Adventurer's Guild?" On the one hand, the adventurer's guild will certainly protect employers, but why not protect the legitimate rights and interests of adventurers? ”

"Yes, so if the other party made this proposal, Miss Atila's brother would probably not agree, and so would the others." Azure continued: "So on the other hand, because of Miss Sylvide's agreement, the other party will definitely leave traces in the Adventurer's Guild. ”

Fang Yu couldn't help but look at his ship's officer.

The other party always seems to be this meticulous and cautious character, and if it weren't for the seemingly superfluous agreement she left at the beginning, they must have been confused about the pursuit of the mysterious employer now.

Although Sky Blue said it was Shesta's suggestion, he knew it must have been Sylvid's behest.

Sure enough, Shesta replied directly, this is exactly what the eldest lady ordered-

The others looked at the aristocratic lady, but Sylvid only smiled at them lightly, not taking credit.

"And who is that person?" Fang Yu asked.

But this time the others shook their heads.

"The clue is broken," Azure sighed, "The staff said that there was a record of that mission, but the record is not in the Adventurer Club at the moment." ”

"What?" Fang Yu was taken aback when he heard this.

……
