Chapter 866 - Negotiation with the Hand of Heaven
Margaux: "Is it necessary?" Do you want to keep acting? β
Arrow nodded, "It's necessary." If the attack stops as soon as the blue distance leaves, then it is tantamount to telling others that the attack is related to the blue distance. Just now, more than one person saw me take those title deeds from the blue distance, which is equivalent to telling others directly, the goddess of death has something to do with us, isn't it? β
's words can be regarded as blocking everyone's mouths.
For a long time, the members of Merfolk Song have also been accustomed to following the orders of their own president. At least since the beginning of the past, there has been no major flaw in the decision-making of the chairman of the house. Since he said yes...... That's fine.
At that moment, the crowd began to rest again, preparing for the next attack.
All day, all day without incident. There was no loud noise in the whole crater.
Then tonight, even if everyone is vigilant, even at night, they will defend in batches to prevent the other side from attacking again in the early hours of the morning. But tonight, it was an unusually quiet night.
Arrow knew that the aftereffects of the Infernal Elixir would wear off in the early morning. In this way, if there is a battle to be fought next, it will only be the night of the third day.
And this night will be the last night everyone will spend in this hole.
But before you get ready to fight......
The person who Arrow had been waiting for had finally appeared in front of him.
"Hello, President Arrow. I am the Vice President of the Hand of Heaven, Pock. We've met a few times before. β
Finally, here he comes.
Arrow touched the title deeds that had been hidden for a long time in his arms, and then said with a very surprised expression: "Oops! Vice President Pok? You're really polite, come on, come on! You may be seated, you may be seated! We are really a little flattered that the vice president of a guild like you can come to a place like ours with a small guild! β
There was still a smile on Pock's chubby face. He turned his head around, looked around, and said, "Oops, today is our last night here." After tonight, we'll leave early tomorrow morning and go back to the city. In order to take care of the last night, I also need to contact the guild that is still stationed here to get in touch with the relationship. β
Arrow also looked around.
Indeed, perhaps because of the last night, and the number of guilds stationed here has become increasingly scarce, the guilds have also begun to chat with each other. Even the members of the Heavenly Hand are now no longer just gathering together, but mingling with the members of other guilds.
Seeing this, Arrow had to admire the carefulness of this vice president.
As long as the members of the Hand of Heaven are spread out as much as possible, then no one will suspect that he, the vice president, will come to the mermaid song. In this way, no one will think that he came specifically for the matter of the title deed, and the knowledge and suspicion of this matter can be kept to a minimum.
If you think about it carefully, if it weren't for the fact that Dak Hikaritsu was the son of the Heaven's Light Leader, the most suitable leader of this Heaven Hand Guild might be this fat man, right?
Haha, but then again, if it weren't for the support of his son, how could Heavenly Light have created a new guild?
Arrow looked at Pock, smiled slightly, and said, "Vice President Poke, oops, this mission is really terrifying...... There will be so many twists and turns. How many guilds do you estimate will be able to successfully complete the mission this time? β
Poke also smiled and said, "According to my observations, the number should not exceed thirty-five. Alas, thinking about the fact that at the beginning of the month, there were more than 100 guilds participating in the competition, and now after a month of competition, so many have been eliminated, which is really emotional. β
Arrow laughed, patted his thigh, and said, "In this case, in a month's Holy Night Festival, all 108 guilds will be eliminated by 107, wouldn't this be even more emotional?" β
Poke was slightly stunned, then nodded again and again, patted his head, and smiled; "yes, yes, I'm still a little sentimental. Come, President Arrow! I've got some wine and meat here, let's have a good meal! β
For Bock's respect, Arrow was very vigilant, waved his hand and smiled: "Then I'll use water instead, I don't want my brain to mess up in this situation." β
Pork, who was holding his glass, looked a little embarrassed, and then nodded as well. He put away his flask, and after a few minutes of casual awkward chatting with the people in the Mermaid's Song, he finally got to the pointβ
"President Arrow, you are here...... Is there a title deed for a poor village? β
Arrow was slightly stunned, and said with a puzzled expression: "Title deed? Yes, why are you asking this? β
Poke smiled and said, "Well, I'm just curious." After all, we've all seen you get some pieces of paper from that Sapphire Blue's hand. I have better eyes, so I guess if it's a title deed. Alas, can you please let me see? β
Arrow's eyes rolled slightly, and then immediately showed a sneering expression, and said with a smile: "Oh~~~! I see, these title deeds must be important to you, right? β
"Oh no, no, no, no! How is this possible? How could we, the Hand of Heaven, be interested in the title deeds of such a remote village? β
Now is not the time to go around in circles. Arrow waved his hand and said straightforwardly: "Vice President Poke, don't sell anything to me, your expression is all showing!" Don't worry, I won't talk about it. Just if you want this title deed...... Of course, I am friends with your president, how much do you think is the right amount of money to buy? β
Seeing that there was no way for him to change the subject, Pock's brow furrowed visibly. He thought for a moment and said, "President Arrow, I don't know what kind of relationship you have with our president. But these title deeds are of no value to you at all, but ...... to us"
"Hurry up, how much?"
Arrow knows that when he has an advantage, it's better to be straightforward. If you take too long, things can get more troublesome.
And Poke saw that he couldn't change the topic three times or twice, and after a slight sigh, he said slowly: "Five gold coins, how about it?" These title deeds aren't worth much to you, but five gold coins isn't a small amount for your guild. In this regard, Arrow just smiled, glanced at the fat man with his chin, and said, "How much is the total amount of commission money for you to take this task?" β
Poke's brows furrowed again, then he shook his head and said, "You can't disclose the amount of entrustment, this is the rule of the trade, and President Arrow should know it very well." All I know is that the price of five gold coins is definitely not a small amount for you. And...... If you want to be a guild, you probably don't want to offend the Light of Heaven, do you? β
Arrow shrugged, "So, this is a threat?" β
Pork pursed his lips and smiled, the expression on his face becoming much more relaxed: "No, it's just a 'persuasion' based on the resources we have in our hands. β
Well, isn't this still going to be blackmailed!
Arrow patted his thigh slightly, and said with a smile: "Oops~~~ What a pity." Alas...... Five gold coins is a bit less. However, I don't think you will get much from completing this task, so you shouldn't be able to raise the price much. In that case, then I simply won't sell it. β
"Humph! Looks like President Arrow has decided?! β
Polk's expression changed instantly, which made the members of Merfolk Song on both sides immediately stand up as if they were facing a great enemy.
But then......
"Vice President Pock, please listen to me. Although I don't plan to sell it, doesn't that mean I don't plan to send it? I have decided to give these title deeds to you in the Hand of Heaven intact, which can be regarded as a witness to the friendship between our two guilds~~~"
Polke, who had just looked a little annoyed, was now immediately flushed with anger on his face, and slowly reverted to the smile on his face just now.
"It seems that President Arrow is indeed a hero! Be able to know clearly what to do and what not to do. All right! Since President Arrow is so cheerful, I have to make some small expressions. β
As he spoke, Pock turned around, pulled out a small square box from his pocket, and handed it to Arrow.
"What is this?"
Arrow was slightly puzzled.
Polk smirked a little, "It's a funny little thing." How much fun is that...... I'll show you. β
With that, Polk stood up and examined his clothes. But his clothes were clean and not much dirty. After turning around, he saw the cream next to him, the assassin's outfit was already a little gray, and in some places it was even so dirty that it was impossible to see what color or pattern it was.
"Ah, sir, please stand up and rest assured, I won't do anything strange to you."
Cream's face was wary, look at Pock, and then look at Arrow. After seeing Arrow nod slightly, he slowly stood up and said, "What exactly do you want to do?" β
Polk smiled, picked up the small box in his hand, pressed the machine, and opened it, revealing a semicircular transparent sphere inside.
"Look! Here's the fun now! β
As she spoke, Polk pressed the semicircular transparent orb against a dirty-looking area of Cream's chest. Something surprising happened! After the sphere touched the clothes, a slight lightning began to flash in the transparent sphere!
