Chapter 1 Transactions
Huge city, out-of-town, unknown area.
Qin Ran met Kars.
The man who was in Rachel's tavern was actually an undercover agent for the Guardians.
Unlike the lazy appearance of the last time they met, even if he couldn't see the other party's face, Qin Ran could feel the other party's nervousness.
Moreover, the T-shirt and jeans on the other party's body have long disappeared, and they have become dressed like robes.
"Increases stealth effect."
Qin Ran swept over the robe and roughly understood the function of the robe.
Clearly, Kars's life was not easy.
In other words, no one will show mercy to traitors, including guardians.
"Thank you for coming."
"I've sent a lot of private messages, but the only one who is willing to help me is 2567."
Looking at Qin Ran who came over, Kars let out a wry smile.
"Help?"
"I'm just here to hear more about the Guardians."
"If this information proves to be true, then I can give you some help in exchange."
"It's the deal."
"Not for free."
Qin Ran emphasized.
"Even if it's a transaction, your appearance makes me feel happy."
Kars didn't care.
"You're in a worse situation than you thought."
"Actually, it's far safer to stay in a room than to come out."
Qin Ran said.
There was a faint temptation in the words.
Although he had already checked the surroundings when he appeared here, and there was no ambush, how could Qin Ran rest assured that a stranger like Kars was still a stranger who was hostile before.
"I'll stay in the room if I can."
"But now, I can't go back!"
"Otherwise, I won't stay out of the city!"
Kars pointed to the robot in the distance and continued.
"The Guardians, stand outside my three residences, and if I come near, I will be slain—I never doubt their attitude towards the Betrayers any more than I doubt their resolve as Guardians."
"So, I hope 2567 you can help me get back to my room."
As he spoke, Kars took a deep breath and looked at Qin Ran expectantly.
"And then?"
"I'll be targeted by the Guardians and hunted by them instead of you?"
Qin Ran didn't give a direct answer, but sneered.
This is not only Qin Ran's true thoughts, but also a way to bargain.
The combination of the two will make the negotiation of the transaction more effective.
Qin Ran is not a profiteer.
But when fighting for his own interests, Qin Ran will definitely not be merciful.
You give up what you deserve, and you may get gratitude, praise, but more disdain, insults, and malicious speculation.
The human heart itself is a product of extreme complexity.
Qin Ran didn't want to become a saint or a hero, so what he deserved and what he actually got was the most important thing.
Looking back at Kars, Qin Ran waited for the other party's answer.
"I'll tell you everything I know about the Guardians."
Without hesitation, Kars spoke.
"Not enough."
Qin Ran shook his head very dryly.
"Two Legendary Items!"
Karls said.
"Not enough!"
"It doesn't look like your crisis is that serious, and I don't think there's any need for us to talk anymore."
Qin Ran shook his head again, and turned around.
After experiencing Rachel's Tavern and the auction in the small hall, Qin Ran had a new understanding of the Rankers, and he would not be moved by the other party's two legendary items.
Or, to be more precise, with the increase in Qin Ran's strength.
Ordinary legendary items have long been out of his sight.
The reason why he still carried several low-quality props on his body was a kind of practice that was both commemorative and warning for Qin Ran.
He was using these props to tell himself how hard it was to go through everything he had gone through, and how lucky he was to be able to get to where he is now.
He needs to be more cautious in order to be worthy of what he has now, to be worthy of that luck.
Of course, in the final analysis, Qin Ran is a person who misses the old.
This is true for the article used.
The same is true for friends.
However, it is a pity that Kars is not Qin Ran's friend.
Therefore, the result is naturally predestined.
"Epic!"
"An epic item!"
Looking at Qin Ran, who was leaving, Kars hurriedly said.
Qin Ran paused, but didn't turn around, just shook his head again.
"One more secret!"
"The secret of the 'witch'!"
Kars added one more.
This time, Qin Ran turned around.
Qin Ran has always been quite curious about the existence of the 'Witch', who once stood at the top of a huge city and now deeply affects all senior players and advanced players.
And, with the passage of time, this curiosity has not weakened, but has grown.
Especially after the appearance of the Guardian Organization, Qin Ran's curiosity about this lady reached a peak.
Faced with this lady's secret, Qin Ran wanted to know very much.
"Hopefully it's not a trivial little thing."
Qin Ran said, took out the contract scroll that had been prepared a long time ago, and threw it to Kars.
"I promise you, it will never be a frivolous little thing."
Kars said as he checked the contract scroll, wrote down his name, and then returned it to Qin Ran.
And when Qin Ran checked it again and signed his name, the contract was established.
With the establishment of the contract, Qin Ran could see that Kars was visibly relieved.
Not only physically, but also mentally.
Kars did not hide this.
"You've never thought about the helplessness of a person in the face of a powerful organization - no matter how strong you are, there are always times when you relax and get tired, but those guys will appear like locusts and tear at the last of your energy! Until you ...... Exhausted and slaughtered! ”
Kars said tiredly as he sat there.
It's just that Kars didn't get Qin Ran's comfort, even if the other party's words, Qin Ran felt it deeply.
Qin Ran knew his purpose.
He's not a big brother.
He's here to trade.
And all that remains?
Qin Ran won't care.
Even, don't bother at all.
"You're going to rest here?"
"Or fulfill the contract."
Qin Ran asked directly.
"Fulfill the contract."
Kars immediately said and offered Qin Ran a deal.
An epic item appears in the trading slot.

……
"Fur hat?"
Qin Ran immediately confirmed the deal when he saw this fur hat that could obviously be hung on the cloak and cloak.
However, Qin Ran waved his hand to stop Kars's next words, and his gaze looked to the side.
There, several figures loomed.
