Chapter 696: Collecting Demons as Servants
When Nie Kong returned to the military camp again, the traces of the battle had been almost cleared, and in this attack by the red-robed killing squad, only a few members of the military were injured, and no one died. Nie Kong's Blood Wolf Banner warriors had died more than twenty times, and they needed to rest, and they couldn't be summoned in a short time.
A tent was cleared out to be used as a makeshift conference room, Ai Tu made some stone tables and stone benches, and Zhao Kai's interrogation of the Demon Thorn continued, with Pinmo Blue acting as a recorder.
At this time, the rest of the people still had rest, some vigils, and the division of labor was clear.
When he saw Nie Kong enter the tent, Demon Thorn seemed to see a savior, and said with an old smile on his face: "Nie Kong, you should know my situation, I have said everything I should have said just now, or from your point of view, the confession is clear." There's no need for me to look at interrogations, detentions, or whatever, right? We're all colleagues in the future, right? ”
Ai Tu and the three looked at Nie Kong, this time it was all his credit, about the handling of the demon thorns, although both of them had their own ideas, they had to respect him.
Nie Kong didn't say a word, looked at the eyes of the demon thorn, walked to the stone bench on the side and sat down, hesitated for a moment, looked at Ai Tu and said: "This person has little value left, if we want to use him in the future, we will also score high-end combat power and guard him in the strictest way." If you are attacked by the Secret Service again, don't hesitate to kill him. ”
"Huh?" Ai Tu was stunned.
"Huh?" Demon Thorn stood up in surprise and hurriedly said, "No...... You know what's going on in my mind, guy, why do you still talk like that? I even arranged for my family to go to the north of the city, and this old man is tied to the same boat as the military, how can you say that? ”
Zhao Kai naturally looked at Nie Kong, and immediately spoke: "Now that we are carrying out a mission outside, ensuring the smooth execution of the mission and our own safety is the primary goal, and there is no condition to accept prisoners." If you have a confrontation with the Secret Service when we meet tomorrow morning, you must be killed as soon as possible. ”
Ai Tu frowned when he heard this, he didn't know the effect of Nie Kong's soul reading, so he couldn't comment easily.
Demon Thorn was anxious, stood up and said, "Young man, you are immature like this!" Will the Secret Service still dare to be captured in the future? Knowing that he was captured and treated like this, he had to fight with you desperately? I'm in a gang with you now, do you understand the concept of a gang? If something happens tomorrow, I'll help you! ”
"Come, I'll tell you."
Nie Kong took out a cigarette and lit it, then closed his mouth again, and thought about it for a long time, and Ai Tu and the others looked at him, waiting for his opinion.
Nie Kong's brows tightened, and he finally spoke: "First, where is the team of the Secret Service to welcome the inspection team?" I haven't found the slightest news about the patrol team in your head. ”
"Second, after you command them to retreat, so far, they ...... How to put it, it's too disciplined. I can conclude that the team just now has a new commander. ”
"Third." Nie Kong frowned, looked at the demon thorn deeply, and said, "Our purpose for this operation is twofold, one is to escort Dr. Zhao out of Chang'an, and the other is to greet the inspection team. Now, your task is to contain our ......."
Speaking of this, Nie Kong stopped talking, he flicked the ash of his cigarette, and fell into deep thought again.
After reading the Soul Demon Thorn just now, he did feel a lot more relaxed, and he had a feeling that the task was almost completed. But after going to the Secret Service camp and coming back, he saw a lot and thought a lot along the way.
As expected, this team of Demon Thorns is only superficial, their task is only to contain the military team, and outside Chang'an City, the Secret Service has deployed another team.
This team, their importance is much more important than the task of Demon Thorn, as far as Nie Kong's estimation is concerned, it is very likely that it is about the patrol team.
"You moved your family to the north of the city, but with what I know about you now, your character ...... There are some things I won't say. ”
Nie Kong looked at the demon thorn calmly and said lightly.
Demon Thorn's eyes narrowed slightly, his expression remained unchanged, and he was silent.
The old man's personality is somewhat selfish...... Using the word selfish to describe him, he doesn't know whether it is suitable or not, in short, he is a gecko, and his family is just his tail.
Nie Kong felt that he might have little experience, and he had never seen such an old man who didn't care much about the lives of his children and grandchildren. It can be said that he doesn't care too much, in fact, it hasn't reached the 'dispensable' step, Devilthorn is very good to his family, and he also needs the warmth of the family, but ......
In short, regardless of his willingness to spend a lot of energy to pave the way for his family, once his life is in danger, the gecko will not hesitate to break his tail and flee in panic.
"Alas......"
Nie Kong sighed, scratched his head, and said with an irritated expression: "I still need to continue scouting, and the next is the most important duel, so I'm sorry, your life will not be guaranteed until you return to the city." When I return to the city, with your character, I will also advise the military not to reuse you, or even lock you up for a long time. ”
Ai Tu opened his mouth, looking at Nie Kong's gaze with some doubts, the military is now the time to use people, but Nie Kong said this, this is pushing the demon thorn in a hostile direction, and even clearly wants him to die.
Demon Thorn's gaze became very cold, and he observed Nie Kong indifferently, still not speaking.
For a moment, there was silence in the tent.
At this time, Nie Kong spoke again, he looked directly into the eyes of the demon thorn, and said slowly: "Your attitude towards Qi Yue is that you are afraid, but you are completely not optimistic about the combination of the military and Erte. So even if you agree to work for the military, you won't do it wholeheartedly, so that Qi Yue won't kill you after the defeat. What you hope most is to leave Chang'an and find a corner to live a life of idle clouds and wild cranes. ”
Devilthorn was still silent.
"I have an offer that you can listen to if you are willing to accept it......"
Ai Tu and the others looked at it suspiciously, and it was obvious that Nie Kong had said a lot of things before, all of which were foreshadowing.
Nie Kong pointed at Ai Tu and the others, and continued: "Conclude a five-year soul contract, either with me or with a few of them. During these five years, you are the central figure of the military, and after that, you are free. ”
After thinking about it, Nie Kong continued, "In order to show your sincerity, you can send your family out now, and we will arrange for them to leave with Dr. Zhao to ensure their safety. ”
"If it is a master-servant contract, out of consideration for the dignity of a strong man and an old man, the title of master-servant is exempted, and the two parties are still in a cooperative relationship, this contract is only counted as a binding force, and the so-called lord cannot order you to perform any unjust tasks."
After finishing speaking, Nie Kong pretended to look at the other party calmly, and the demon thorn glared at him, blowing his beard angrily.
The soul contract is higher than the existence of the system contract, and it is very difficult to repent.
Among the known soul contracts, the simplest relationship is the master-servant contract, the servant remains absolutely loyal, and the master cannot easily kill the servant, if he does so, he will lose his own strength.
In addition, there are slavery contracts, undead contracts, reincarnation contracts, etc., the former is better than dying directly, and the latter is better than dying, which is equivalent to the soul and corpse all being sacrificed to others permanently.
The contract is usually what the soul mage does to monsters and followers, and in reality, few people do this to people, and Nie Kong only learned from the soul that the demon thorn had cast a forced undead contract on the corpse of his dead teammate Thunder.
Generally speaking, a person's soul power can only withstand one soul contract, and the lower the soul power, the more difficult it is to get rid of it. As a high-end soul magician, Demon Thorn can be said not to be too familiar with this thing.
"I don't have a choice, do I?" Demon Thorn pulled down an old face and said indifferently.
Ai Tu said solemnly: "We have no choice. ”
Demon Thorn glanced at Nie Kong, and snorted coldly: "Young people are very good at playing, the situation in Chang'an will be completely clear within a month, you want to pull me an old man as a back, it's not impossible, who told me that I don't have a choice?" But five years is too long, three years, or kill me. ”
"Three years is three years, who you choose." Nie Kong asked.
In fact, the restrictive power of this contract is not completely unsolvable, but it is more troublesome, and a well-known solution is that once the servant breaks through the power, the contractual constraints on his body will be greatly weakened.
For example, if level 19 is upgraded to level 20, for example, level 29 and level 39 will be upgraded to level 30 and level 40, and when this happens, his soul will transform and break all the restraining forces based on the original soul.
In other words, once the strength of Demon Thorn reaches level 40, this contract will immediately lose its validity.
Saying......
Signing the master-servant contract is equivalent to having one more thug, and the benefits are naturally there!
In fact, Nie Kong's arrangement is also selfish, the combat power of the Demon Thorn is similar to the current Bai Ling, and accepting him as a servant is equivalent to having one more super war pet, although it only has three years of summoning time......
It's just that he took the initiative to bring this up, Demon Thorn should hate himself the most at the moment, as far as Nie Kong estimates, he is very likely to choose to sign a contract with Ai Tu, after all, Ai Tu is notoriously upright, and he doesn't have to worry about being blinded when he mixes around.
It's not bad to mix with Pinmo Zhilan and Zhao Kai, the character of these two people is trustworthy, Demon Thorn is so old, his vision of knowing people will not be bad, and if he chooses either of them, his life will definitely not be uncomfortable.
"Nie Kong, are you pretending to be a private servant and recruiting a junior brother for yourself?" Demon Thorn glanced at Nie Kong, and snorted coldly: "This day is far away from the emperor, and no one can control you, I look at a few of them, and no one will stand up for me as a poor old man." That's okay, I'll admit it, and I'll mess with you kid in the future. ”
Nie Kong looked puzzled and looked at the others: "Who?" Who do you choose to follow? ”
Demon Thorn glanced at Ai Tu and the others, his eyes fell on Nie Kong again, and said indifferently: "It's just you, what, do you want me to call you master?" Or is it a young master? Master? ”
Nie Kong's face turned red suddenly, he didn't expect that Demon Thorn would actually choose himself, the person who arrested him and tricked him, and waved his hand crampedly: "No, no, as I said before, I know that your surname is Zhang, it's good to call you Uncle Zhang, and I won't call you, if you want to enter the military system, just do your job well." ”
Demon Thorn's face softened, and he sighed: "It's pretty much the same, so can I bless the soul weapon now?" The soul contract must be signed in the blessed state, and my soul armament should now be remnant blood, so I don't have to worry about escaping. ”
"Yes." Nie Kong hurriedly said: "We have to change the regulations of the master-servant contract, you should be familiar with this, so bless it now." ”
Demon Thorn nodded, and began to bless the soul armament, Ai Tu and the others vigilantly guarded the four sides of the tent to guard against emergencies.
Moments later, a deed document was finalized.
"Can you tell me why you chose me?" After holding it for a long time, Nie Kong asked with a puzzled expression.
Zhao Kai also smiled: "Yes, we won't treat you badly, I want to experience what it's like to have a strong thug, no one dares to mess with me." ”
Ai Tu also looked at the demon thorn with some curiosity, and the blue of the ink had been standing calmly aside.
While writing the contract regulations, Demon Thorn said indifferently: "You think from the perspective of the old man and me, if you are not too stupid, you will make the same choice." ”
Nie Kong frowned and thought when they heard this, but they couldn't figure it out for a while.
Moments later, the master-servant contract was officially signed.
There are a few differences from the original version of the master-servant contract, but this contract,.
System prompt: Do you confirm the signing of the 'Modified Master-Servant Contract'? It will consume 300 HP and stamina, and the attributes will be restored after the contract ends. Please read the contents of the contract carefully, and you will accept the allegiance of Demon Thorn as the master for three years.
"Yes."
System Prompt: Level 35 Nature Wizard Magic Thorn, become your servant, your soul link with him has deepened, and you can get summoning permission after the fit is increased to 60 points, which is currently 8 points. You can consult and borrow all the soul armament items he has, and he cannot disobey any of the orders included in the master-servant relationship, he ......
