Chapter 524: Bargaining is a Girl's Unique Racial Talent......
"I thought you were going to run away."
The first words of the Pope, who still covered his face, made Alyssa furrow.
"Besides, I advise you not to casually show your soul device to me."
His second sentence made Jon frown.
"Is this a threat from you, Your Excellency?"
The boy lowered his face and grinned like a wolf cub who had spotted an enemy.
"It's advice." The mysterious Pope replied categorically: "I don't know if it's a coincidence, but until now, when two soul tools that are not friends show their soul tools at the same time, one of them will definitely die. ”
"It may be nice to be young and vigorous, but I still want you to calm down if you don't have to." He continued, "I finally met someone who might be able to exchange his soul experience, and I don't want to have your hands stained with your blood. ”
Clearly, the Pope's implication was that if Jon insisted on doing it, he would have to win.
It was a dishonest negotiating attitude. Alyssa came to such a conclusion in her mind, and then added in her heart: and he is also an arrogant guy.
"Why have you been all the way from church to no one noticing you? This is a little bit different from the scene where thousands of people welcomed you just now, is this also the effect of your soul tool? ”
Juno. Daisy asked.
His Excellency the Pope of the Church of Necessary Evil looked at her, and the eagle-sharp eyes that appeared between the hood and the placket made the girl involuntarily shrink down from the side of Theo next to her.
"'The silence in the table'. It makes people lose the ability to perceive the target, which is just a special kind of arcane art. Moreover, this arcane art is also ineffective against magicians with supernatural mental powers. ”
After showing a hint of appreciation for Theo's unhurried and breezy attitude, His Excellency replied casually.
For the average person, if the cognitive ability is blinded, the apple is no different from a red stone, the banknote is just a printed paper with a pattern, and the fanatical idol is no different from the stranger on the road.
It is because of this effect that after being blessed with the magic of 'Tranquility in the Surface', His Excellency the Pope, who is so weird, is just a suspicious person who can be seen everywhere in the eyes of ordinary people......
"The problem is that most of the soul envoys who have been confirmed at this stage are not magicians." Alyssa took the other party's words: "Some of them are soldiers. Some are robbers. There were coolie slaves, traders, pawns, but almost none of them were magicians. ”
In other words, this move can be regarded as a lore for most unprepared soul masters.
In fact. If it weren't for Alyssa, they had been reminded beforehand. Even if the Pope walked up to Jon. Maybe he won't recognize him for a while.
"I didn't expect you to be a magician at such a young age, it was indeed my miscalculation." His Excellency the Pope shrugged his shoulders and said in a voice without regret: "But although it is not nice to say this, in fact, even if the three of you are intermediate magicians. Together they will definitely not be my opponents. And Brunei City is also the stronghold of my church, and it is difficult to find you here. ”
For His Excellency the Pope's confident words, Alyssa and Alice aside, Juno. Daisy scoffed.
Even if Brunei is your territory, so what? What if you could turn the whole city upside down? There's nothing in this world that can trap Edric's students - it's a big deal about a homecoming crystal, and this time it's devalued by this thing that Edrick is almost a piece of his hand.
You must know that even the Cube Prison, which is known as the strictest prison in the Eastern Plains, has been successfully robbed by Xiwei with this thing, not to mention the tiny city of Brunei......
"It's not nice to say, but honestly, even if you all the church members stationed in Brunei City go together, we are not afraid."
Sure enough, Alyssa completely ignored the other party's words that were the same as the threat, and after stabbing him by copying the other party's words, she directly grabbed the right to speak: "It's better to be open and honest than to pretend here, right?" ”
"Hmph, what kind of information do you want?"
I don't know if His Excellency the Pope believes it or not, anyway, he snorted coldly and stopped arguing, and changed the question.
"All the information about soul equipment." Juno. Daisy interjected.
"I said, it's that kid who obviously has the soul device, right? Why have you magicians been here to join in the fun? ”
His Excellency the Pope finally couldn't stand Jon's current tragic situation, and asked a few people.
"Because our Magical Objects Research Society is his agent." Juno. Daisy looked at Alyssa and replied after the latter nodded.
"I haven't heard of it at all...... Never mind. ”
As if abandoning the question of the strange name of the organization, His Excellency the Pope sat down on a wooden chair: "Don't you even have a cup of tea for the guests?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, hot and delicious black tea, delicious tea snacks and baked biscuit racks appeared on the table.
At the table, Alice, dressed as a maid, asked the other party with a smile that was a little five times brighter than usual, "The black tea and snacks are ready, do you want anything else?" ”
“……”
Naturally, the Pope of the Church of the Evil Church, who is still half-covering his face, could not just take off the cover and drink tea...... The previous sentence was just to embarrass Alyssa, but now it seems to have slapped herself.
"All in all, I'm not a philanthropist, nor am I your teacher, and if you want to get information from me, you must at least exchange it for equivalent information."
With a light cough to hide his embarrassment, His Excellency the Pope continued: "Equivalent exchange is one of the truths that must be observed at all times. ”
"No problem. Although we don't have much information about the soul device itself, we do have a lot of information about some side branches, and many of them are of value that you don't expect. ”
Edric can obtain a lot of information from the outside world every day, and after this information is classified by the three sages, except for the confidential documents that will be locked, the others can be exchanged for different number of reward points according to their importance.
Alyssa, who had already had a lot of first-hand information, nodded and agreed to the deal: "However, please tell us the information first, let us judge what the value is, and then we can decide what information to exchange for." ”
What follows is a tug-of-war of bargaining purely by virtue of eloquence and bargaining ability. (To be continued......)
