Chapter IX: Response
"I see!"
Qin Ran muttered to himself in a low voice. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The quest scroll for the title quest is the loot from killing the killer player Nobion.
Except for Qin Ran himself, no one knew about this matter, even the lawless who arrived later didn't know.
So how does the 'broker' know?
Quite simply, Nobion was under the watchful eye of the 'broker' from the time he obtained the sub-scroll of the title dungeon [Sword of Dawn] to all subsequent actions.
Even, the sub-scroll of [Sword of Dawn] was simply a bait deliberately released by the 'broker'.
In order to 'fish' more killer players!
The 'brokers' must have known about the existence of killer players for a long time.
But the other party chose to turn a blind eye for the time being.
Because, the presence of these killer players is very advantageous for the 'broker'.
Think of the secret market of the 'brokers'!
How many of the items in it are from the Killer Player's sale?
I'm afraid that the 'brokers' just saw the clues from certain items.
However, as time passed, the strength and power of the 'broker' were further strengthened, and the other party's mind changed slightly.
For the 'broker', it's not that he doesn't want these killer players to continue to exist, it's just that the 'broker' needs a group of killer players who obey his orders and serve him.
But killer players are too deeply hidden, and unless they are actively exposed, it is difficult to determine whether a player is a killer player.
So, the 'broker' needs a 'bait'!
The title dungeon scroll is one such 'bait'!
It only takes a slight change to the information of the title dungeon scroll and deliberately puts out some fake news, which is enough to attract more killer players.
For example, a title quest scroll can bring 3-5 people to enter at the same time, etc.
Except for the person who actually holds the title copy scroll and the only two 'witches' and 'brokers' who have the only title, the rest of the people can't tell the real from the fake at all.
The 'witch' who has already left will not explain.
The 'brokers' who are the masterminds behind the scenes will not explain.
As for the person holding the title copy scroll to explain?
How could someone who has been blinded by greed believe it.
It's just that he is a spoiler in the middle, so that the 'broker' has to change his original plan.
But from the immediate point of view......
"The broker is doing a really good job!"
Qin Ran, who walked to the window, looked down.
The crowd that was quietly gathering below, although they habitually walked in the shadows, were really clear to Qin Ran, who was in a high place.
"Did the 'broker' tell you about the title dungeon?"
"And the kidnapping of Cole?"
Qin Ran asked the night owl in order to confirm.
"It's a special dungeon world that is enough for five people to enter, not counting the number of dungeons, but only one person finally won the title!"
"Cole was also kidnapped by that bastard, and sent a message to Lawless!"
The Night Stalker hesitated for a moment, then said what he knew.
"Sure enough......"
Qin Ran sighed in his heart.
The night owl's words convinced him even more of his own inference.
What was assassinated, what cooperated.
It's all a game set up by a 'broker'.
In order to bring them to this wide square suitable for surrounding.
And not only them, but also those killer players.
"Bastard!"
Lawless on the side clenched his fists and cursed.
It's not a fool's lawlessness, after hearing Qin Ran's inquiry about the night owl, he suddenly understood.
"Cursing only makes you look more like a defeated dog barking, pathetic and pathetic - think about what to do now!"
"Those self-interested guys won't listen to your explanation!"
"Title quest scroll?"
"Tsk, that's really exciting......"
"Good luck little one!"
Rachel scolded Lawlessness mercilessly, and then, looking at Qin Ran, her eyes seemed to be smiling, which made Qin Ran's heart jump for a while.
Thinking of the skills that the other party had shown before, Qin Ran's scalp tingled.
If Rachel is also tempted by the title quest scroll, he is really helpless.
In a head-to-head battle, you may be able to rely on two hole cards to maneuver around, but if you are attacked......
That's really damning!
"Is it a crime now?"
Qin Ran laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Of course not!"
Lawless looked at Rachel with a serious gaze.
"Joke!"
"Just a joke!"
"Two big men don't have a sense of humor at all!"
Rachel glanced at the two of them angrily and asked again.
"What now?"
"Although those guys downstairs are not very good, but there are a lot of people, if I am alone, there is no problem if I want to leave, but it is impossible to take you with me!"
The tavern lady said.
"You don't need to bring us, just bring 2567 with you, their goal is 2567, once 2567 leaves, the situation in front of them will be self-defeating!"
Lawless pointed at Qin Randao.
"But the purpose of the 'broker' has been achieved!"
"His original purpose was not me, but these killer players downstairs - think about it, when these killer players are cornered, how many people will be willing to fight to the death?"
"I guess most of them will choose to go to the 'brokers'!"
"And after we have completely torn our faces, will the 'brokers' who have grown in power let us go?"
"He will definitely send us an 'invitation to surrender', and if he refuses, he will deal a complete blow to us! At that point, every time we return from the quest time, the rest of the huge city is dangerous, except that it is safe to stay in the game room! ”
"So, I want to give it a go!"
"Of course, I'm more because I don't want to see the 'broker' succeed like this, and I'm narrow-minded, and I've always been willing to repay it!"
Qin Ran said as if he was joking.
But Lawlessness and Rachel heard seriousness from Qin Ran's tone.
The two knew it wasn't a joke.
"Well, give it a go!"
"Big deal, I'll play standalone in the future!"
Lawless agreed with Qin Ran's words without thinking.
Rachel didn't object either.
The three of them discussed in a low voice.
The night owl in the corner on the side was staring at Qin Ran with flickering eyes.
This kind of unabashed conversation made the night owl instinctively feel that something was wrong.
Because of my anger at the 'broker', he completely believed me?
He can't be so naïve, right?
Or is it deliberately trying to get me to pass on the fake news to the 'brokers'?
The Night Stalker pondered.
Just thinking, not hesitating.
As a killer, she has always considered profits.
Both in real life and in-game.
Canaries are similar.
But there's one difference: hatred.
The hatred of lawlessness made her even more impulsive.
Or rather, stupidity.
……
The people in the shadows downstairs looked at each other warily.
Looking at the entrance to the building that was close at hand, no one took that step.
Because they know very well that whoever takes that step first will become the target of the crowd and be attacked by the crowd.
The stalemate continues.
The atmosphere became oppressive and dangerous.
If this continues, there will eventually be people who can't bear to make a move.
And at this time-
A figure suddenly appeared on the roof of the building, attracting the attention of everyone downstairs, and then jumped down. (To be continued.) )
