Chapter XVII. Intelligence
It was already evening, but the person who came was wearing a peaked cap and big sunglasses, looking mysterious.
Su Hao didn't turn his head, showing a hint of a smile: "Tsk, I'm really curious about your sources, I can even know what just happened." β
"Don't doubt my profession." The other party's tone was calm, and he patted the chair lightly with his hand and said, "What are you looking for me?" β
"Do you know about phantoms?" Su Hao asked very dryly.
"Hey, it's not easy, I thought it would take too much time for your dead house to know." The other party's voice was full of surprise.
"Need details?"
"Of course, I'm looking for you for this." Su Hao nodded, and handed over a gold coin as an advance payment.
The other party is a friend he met in "Second World", an intelligence dealer specializing in intelligence gathering and sales, and it is said that there is a large team behind it.
The information was extremely reliable, which brought him a lot of convenience, so the two had already worked together countless times before.
It's just that he hasn't made much progress in "Fantasy" that he hasn't contacted the other party for a long time.
"To put it simply, the player's body is bound by the laws of physics and cannot really fly away, and the illusion body is to make up for this biggest shortcoming. The phantom body, as the name suggests, is the body of the illusory world, a special form of existence similar to the second world, and the more popular explanation is similar to the out-of-body soul. Let the player's spirit break free from the shackles of the body and transform into a real superman! β
"Why isn't there a description of this on the official website?" Su Hao asked suspiciously.
"This is a hidden setting in the illusion world,Only more than 10,000 points can open the illusion body,Now the vast majority of players can have hundreds of thousands of points It's already very good,Of course, you won't be aware of this hidden setting,It is estimated that it will be made public in half a month or even a monthγ The other party shook his head and said, looking very disdainful.
Su Hao's expression was stunned when he heard this, his situation was a little special, and he opened the phantom body with just over a thousand points.
Could it be that Red Lotus can affect the system?
As soon as this thought came out, it made him feel a burst of horror in his heart.
It's just a man-made game.,It's not the traverser system in the novel.,Or the old man in the ring.,It stands to reason that this can't happen at all.,After all, monsters can't run from the game to reality, right?
Or did you encounter the legendary artificial intelligence awakening?
"It should be noted that after opening the illusion, it costs 100 points per minute, and your real body can still be attacked, and once your health is cleared, it will hang up as usual. When the phantom body dies, the real body is only a little tired, and will not be forced to quit the game or explode the items on its body. β
"Okay, the first-level two-star intelligence has already told you, Chenghui has 5 gold coins, and there are still four left."
The other party didn't notice his abnormality, and after saying it to himself, he reached out in front of him and rubbed his thumb and index finger.
"So expensive?!" Su Hao suddenly came back to his senses and felt a little toothache.
The game does not officially provide the service of exchanging credits for game currency, but provides a trading platform for players to trade with others on the platform, and the official 1% regulatory tax is charged.
Now the price of gold coins has been rising, as of today, the exchange price has been as high as 125 credits, so calculated, the other party will charge more than 600 credits for a few casual words.
It's black, it's so black!
"It's getting harder and harder to gather information now, and that's for the sake of you're my friend, and I've given you a 20% discount. Hurry up and pay, you can use credits if you don't have gold. The other party put his hands in his pockets, his body shook slightly, and he was not worried that Su Hao would not pay.
He stood up, turned to face the visitor, took out a small bead from the space backpack and handed it to her: "I still have gold coins, you see how much this thing is worth." β
In addition to being an intelligence dealer, the other party will also buy some special things and use internal channels to sell them.
Now that gold coins are in short supply, he is now worth less than seven gold coins, and he still needs to use them to buy some alchemy materials and spell casting materials, etc., so he is naturally reluctant to spend them like this.
"Hey, how can you have such a good thing?" The other party's eyes shone under the wide hood, and his black pupils could vaguely see his projection.
"I just got it today."
"Oh, yes, I heard that there are a lot of evil spirits there, and I need to make some preparations when I go back, maybe I can make a small fortune with it." The other party nodded, carefully examined the small gray-white beads in his hand, and smiled with joy.
"It's a very pure soul pearl, which many necromancers are buying nowadays, and can be sold for a good price. So, I take a 20% commission and quote 8 gold coins. β
βOKγβ Su Hao nodded, and the other party's credibility made him very relieved.
Actually, this commission is quite reasonable, because soul beads are only needed by those who study souls, and he can't find anyone to trade them.
Then, he hesitated slightly, and involuntarily lowered his voice: "I have a piece of information here, about the main plot that may happen in the near future. β
"Really?" The other party looked him up and down suspiciously.
"I overheard that the Blood Lotus Sect recently planned to launch a massacre of the city, attracting monsters from the nightmare world, and today's incident of burning the plains is because we touched its hidden base, and then it was tragically destroyed."
Su Hao said half-truthfully, because of the influence of the red lotus in the phantom state, he didn't care whether the Shang capital was destroyed or not.
But now it's different, after recovering his usual mood, he naturally won't sit idly by. After all, the other party sells information, and once he learns this information, he will definitely find a way to sell it at a good price for more people to know.
"Blood Lotus Sect, they do have this strength. In this way, when I am sure, I will pay you accordingly, which is an advance payment. β
The other party took out a small bag of gold coins and handed it to him, then turned around and left, as if in a hurry to confirm the truth of the information he said.
Su Hao threw away the money bag and took out a golden coin from it, feeling much better.
In Illusory World, the Gold Coin is the Temple of Wealth, a currency minted under the joint supervision of the major temples and the Human Kingdom, in which a small fragment of the source crystal is used, which can be circulated among the natives of the world.
Gold coins are highly valued among the aborigines, and one gold coin is enough to cover the daily expenses of an average family of three for three months.
Who knew that the other party had just walked a few meters away, then stopped, turned his back to him and said lightly:
"By the way, I would like to give you a piece of information, the Templar Knights have been dispatched this afternoon, and the destination is the same place where your group was destroyed. According to internal sources, an oracle was issued, and it seemed that a heinous person was wanted for a crime. β
"What are you talking to me about?"
"It's nothing, I just think that you won't be resigned to being ordinary, and you definitely want to make a big news, so I'll remind you first."
The other party left without looking back, leaving Su Hao with a stunned face.
His brow furrowed, and he began to think about the scene, no one should have noticed the connection between him and the phantom.
Forget it, I don't want to think so much, let's hurry back and prepare for tomorrow's mission......
