"Then will you heed the call of Lady Cold Spring and return to Aqua City?" Without directly answering Moriarty's question, Eve asked rhetorically.

"I'm a registered mage affiliated with Hockenheim." Moriarty winked with a smirk and gave the answer.

"I think so. Your Olympus has already taken over Rheinberg, and the current internal and external war situation is constantly improving, and the title of baron of a kingdom is already in the bag after the war, so why go back and be sent by others. Eve smiled with satisfaction at Moriarty's honesty.

However, she was not right about one thing, her reluctance to return to Blue Crystal City was not because she coveted the power territory in Erathia, but because of this, Moriarty could have a bigger stage to develop into a higher-level, more difficult and mysterious magical world. Otherwise, he has always been just a little brother, and what he can touch will only be the most superficial things. What's more, the publicly available knowledge in the Academy of Magic, Moriarty is confident that he has mastered eight or nine, and if he wants to ask for something in the next step, it must be an exchange of "real money".

Of course, Moriarty will not explain anything to the other party in detail.

"The matter of the knighthood is far from being known, so there is no need to mention him. If you really need my help with something, you might as well speak up. ”

"Then I'll get straight to the point. This time, I am visiting on behalf of the Doro Chamber of Commerce, hoping that Olympus will help us retrieve something from 'South'. Without going around in circles, Eve told the true purpose of the adventure.

"Sosk... Pick up something? ”

Hearing this, Moriarty was just stunned.

The place name Sosk was no stranger to him. It was a large market town in the middle of Kent, about 80 kilometers from Rheinberg, and was another important trading center in the county in addition to the original town of Atte, and it was also more free and open, and was designated by the major chambers of commerce as the fulcrum and base in the southeastern part of the kingdom. However, since the Demon Invasion, Sosk has long since fallen and become a deserted demonic territory.

"Take what?" Moriarty asked.

"This... It's hard to say, but I can only say that it is an item that is very important to the Dora Chamber of Commerce. It was originally stored in the Rhodo branch of Southsk, but the demon invasion was too sudden. I didn't have time to transfer it out. "I seem a little embarrassed. But Eve remained tight-lipped and unwilling to reveal details about her target.

"If you don't tell me what I am, how can I help you get it back?" Moriarty doesn't seem to care. Who doesn't have some secrets that no one can't know? Just a bland rhetorical question.

"I'll go with your army. As long as you can rid the town of demons. I'll go straight to get the stuff. It seems that the female vice president has also made up her mind and does not hesitate to go to the danger to find things in person.

"That's fine." Moriarty nodded inexorably: "So what kind of remuneration can the Luo Chamber of Commerce pay me?" ”

This question is very realistic, and it is impossible for Moriarty to send troops to die for the other side for no reason. As soon as the army moves, it is a mountain of gold and silver, a mountain of rice, and a mountain. Even finding mercenaries from outside usually costs a lot of money, let alone a powerful army like Olympus.

"As long as Sosk is captured, all the supplies stored in it by the Doro Chamber of Commerce can be donated to Rheinberg. I can even point out the storage locations of the other chambers of commerce. "I already have a draft, Eve immediately quoted.

"That's not going to work." Moriarty just smiled: "If I recover Sosk, one of the treasures will naturally become our spoils." Without your guidance, or even with or without your permission, these items will be shipped back to the Rhineberg to be used as anti-demon supplies. So, you can't pay me with 'my stuff'. ”

"This..."

Although the other party's theory is far-fetched and even outrageous, it is also in line with the rules. What comes from the adversary is captured, and it is only natural that it belongs to the victorious side.

"So, plus the 'appearance fee' of 10,000 Erathia gold coins, is it okay?"

Eve bit down and quoted. Because the demon's invasion of the Antar Grech Continent has caused great damage to the commercial exchanges of the Pan Continent, it is already the great sincerity of the Doro Chamber of Commerce to be able to come up with 10,000 gold coins at this point.

"Ten thousand kingdom gold coins? Well, it's a lot, but it still doesn't attract me. Looking at the hopeful woman, Moriarty shook her head apologetically: "You know, my Earth Studio's annual profit has exceeded this figure, and I won't risk my elite subordinates for this money." ”

"But it's not an adventure! You can slay even the Great Demon, so how can little Thorsk withstand the mighty front of the Olympian Legion? Seemingly in a hurry, Eve unconsciously raised her voice.

"No one can say clearly what is happening on the battlefield. In the Rhineberg, I have a strong city to rely on, and I can attack and defend freely. But when you get to the outside of the city, you have to fight a field battle with the demon army that you can't borrow. The differences and risks, Eve should understand. Still, Moriarty retorted unhurriedly at the woman's persuasion.

"Moriarty, can't you help me for the sake of the years of cooperation with my Dora Chamber of Commerce?" Seeing that the reason didn't seem to make sense, Eve had to pin her hopes on the emotional card, and immediately begged pitifully.

"It is in the light of my past pleasant cooperation with the Doro Chamber of Commerce, and of my friendship with Mr. Franklin and Eve, that I am here to discuss this matter with you. If someone else had made such a request today, I would have rejected it a long time ago. Looking at the female vice president who was in tears, Moriarty also sighed softly: "If you want to move the army, you must be famous, otherwise it will have an impact on the morale of the army and the people." ”

"This..."

Finding that Moriarty was really soft and hard, and coping with it easily, Eve couldn't help but be a little discouraged. However, the price that the Chamber of Commerce can give is so much, and if it has to be increased, unless it is more than several times, how can it make the genius mage in front of him, who is already "rich" and now more powerful, tempted. As for the use of beauty tricks, Eve had hinted at someone many times in Aquamarine City, and even invited the other party to go to a private hot spring manor to "enjoy" together, but they were all rejected one by one. If you want to do this set now, it can only be a joke.

"What if I add a 'Bloodline Count'? And it's alive! After a long silence, as if she had finally made up her mind, Eve looked at Moriarty and said fiercely.

"A living Bloodline Count?" Hearing this, Moriarty's eyebrows immediately furrowed.

The so-called blood clan is another name for vampire, a terrifying alien creature living in Dejia, sucking blood for a living, with all kinds of incredible superpowers, and can even transform into bats. In general, other races consider vampires to be one of the undead. And because the blood clan can transform normal creatures into vampires by sucking blood, it is hated and feared by almost all living beings. It was the vampires' sister who was taken captive by the vampires, and finally became a half-undead and was banished from the clan.

Vampires with the title of "Earl" are equivalent to high-level professionals according to their strength, whether they are death knights or necromancers, plus their own abilities, they are very powerful. And to capture a Blood Earl alive, unless it is an extremely strong person, it is almost impossible to achieve.

"Yes, a sealed Earl of the Blood. If you dare to ask for it, I can give it to you. Now that she opened her mouth, Eve no longer regretted it, and said cheerfully.

"The living Blood Count... It's a priceless commodity, and I think I'll get a good price if I sell it to the Grand Arcanist of Bracada. It seemed that he was very considerate of the other party, even if he was already "coveting" in his heart, but Moriarty still smiled and chatted.

"Of course I know that. But the problem is, I can't get any other chips. Eve also seemed to be really helpless, and sighed and said: "Let's tell you the truth, that Blood Count is now sealed in Sosk, which was originally something I wanted to take together, and now it is worth it for you as an Olympus dispatch." ”

"You brought a living Blood Earl into the heart of the kingdom!?"

Hearing this, Moriarty couldn't help it anymore and became angry. Such an act is no different from treason, and once the vampire breaks free from the seal, it will be devastating for the people of Kent and even the entire southeast of the kingdom. As long as that Bloodclan was willing, within a few days, he could turn countless people into vampires and be controlled by him. And even if the kingdom sends heavy troops to encircle and suppress it, there is only one way to deal with anyone who has been sucked by the blood clan, and that is to pierce the heart with a steel nail.

"I only recently learned about this, so I hurried to you for help. Otherwise, Sosk will be occupied by the demon legions, and maybe the place where the vampires are hiding will be found at some point, and the seal may be broken, and then..."

"What the hell does the Dora Chamber of Commerce do? How can you have the ability to capture a Blood Earl? Moriarty suppressed his anger and continued.

"This... I can't really say. I can only tell you that the vampire was captured by the connection of the fortress of dawn, and it is said that it also paid a great price at that time. Eve shook her head.

"Well, I agreed to your conditions. Moreover, I will lead the team directly to Sosk. Moriarty gave the female vice president another heavy look and stopped the bargaining: "But I want you to make sure that there are no other prohibited items in the items you want to retrieve other than the Blood Earl." ”

"Of course, I promise!" Hearing that Moriarty had promised to personally lead his troops to Southsk, Eve finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time solemnly assured.

Next, arranging for Eve to go down first to provide temporary news, Moriarty immediately convened a military and political council, including Lord Sembo. (To be continued......)
