Chapter IX Meetings

His Excellency Yue Jinghong, as the leader of the old Aegean team Sunset, has a lot of face. In a matter of days, several of Aegean's most famous top players were gathered. Most of them are good players in the mercenary world, and three of the top ten lone mercenaries came, and one of them came uninvited. Feihong has no shadow, and Hua Yuntian has also arrived as promised. What is more uncomfortable is that His Excellency Yue Jinghong also contacted a top killer through the channel of the Killer Guild, one of the seven killers with the highest ranking in Aegean, the Phantom Demon Sword.

Aegean was originally used by the Wizards' Guild to do all kinds of messaging and selling work, but later the Samurai Guild and the Mercenary Guild rose one after another, and all of them were involved. However, several major guilds have a lot of money and nostrils, so this job is not very good. However, news is a very timely thing, and inaccurate or even untimely news is simply ruined!

It wasn't until seven or eight hundred years ago that a brilliant top powerhouse and local tyrant founded an organization dedicated to collecting, transmitting, and selling news. That strong man and local tyrant can be described as a powerful man, and he even leveled the six major guilds at the same time, formed an alliance with the six major guilds, and made Feixue Piaoling into the largest intelligence organization in the whole of Aegean in one fell swoop. Nowadays, even if it is as strong as the three empires, it is far inferior to the flying snow in terms of being well-informed.

However, two hundred years ago, the originally very high-profile Flying Snow Drift suddenly became low-key. It's rare for Aegean to see or hear about the activities of the Flying Snowdrift members. But their information was still timely and accurate. Although the sales agency has become various newspapers and periodicals under the six guilds and several major consortia, it will always be noted on the information that this information is provided by Flying Snow Zero. Blizzard Zero seems to be still working, but it is much more difficult for people to find Blizzard Zero to deliberately buy news, and only some extremely ancient forces have their contact information.

Nowadays, in addition to releasing news from several major trade unions from time to time, the most obvious thing in people's eyes is to release various lists from time to time. For example, the list of the top ten lone mercenaries is produced by them, and their other production is the list of the seven killers of the Aegean. All of them were published in Aegean Times, Aegean's number one periodical, and were widely known.

Among the six guilds, the Killer Guild is the most mysterious, and most people don't know where to find the members of the Killer Guild, let alone learn about it. Therefore, the list of the seven killers released by Blizzard Drifting is very attractive. Night Frost had studied it carefully. But the killer, if you know who he is, he's still a fart? Therefore, there is only one of the seven killers who knows the roots.

The Phantom Demon Sword is ranked sixth among the seven killers, and those who are lucky enough to see him shoot say that his swordsmanship is tricky and weird, and he is full of demonic spirit. The body is as ethereal as smoke, like a ghost like a spirit, so it has the nickname of the ghost demon sword.

Night Frost's interest in this big man in the killer world is not ordinary, but unfortunately he never showed up from beginning to end. Think about it, is it a killer, how can you be a killer when you see someone in broad daylight? And there are tens of thousands of mercenaries here, and there are not many of his enemies, and the killer industry is definitely the highest hatred rate.

For the three bigwigs in the mercenary world, the two Night Frosts who came by appointment were not very interested, in fact, they didn't show up much, but they showed their faces when they first arrived. But the uninvited Night Frost was interested. This boss, whose skin is thicker than the city wall, who is familiar with Yue Jinghong's white eyes, and who clearly shows that he is coming to get a piece of the pie from the bounty of three million gold coins, is called Lei Sizhen, nicknamed the Thunder Tyrant. Ranked second among the ten lone mercenaries, his strength is superb. But this is not the point, what interests Night Frost is that this product is Lei Sibing's own brother!

In Night Frost's impression, Lei Sibing is very thick-skinned, and always considers himself his godbrother, although Night Frost has never called him a big brother. And his elder brother Lei Sizhen's face is not inferior or even better than his younger brother. Yue Jinghong almost pointed to his nose and said We don't need you, but he just didn't realize it, and followed the big guy to the meeting with a smile.

Lei Sizhen's strength is superb, and he has a family origin. Yue Jinghong can't be overly offended, and if he fights alone, he may not be Lei Sizhen's opponent. So for this uncle's cheeky behavior, he can only pinch his nose and admit it.

The content of this meeting was simple, it was the plan that Nightfrost and Ventola had brought up that night. The plan had already been reported to Yue Jinghong by the Wizard of Codry. As for whether it was mentioned or not, I don't know if it was the plan proposed by Night Frost, anyway, Yue Jinghong didn't even look at Night Frost. Nightfrost was a little dissatisfied, but Ventola reassured him that he wouldn't be missing when he shared the money, and Nightfrost listened contentedly.

"That's our plan!" said the leaders of a group of mercenaries gathered around a large long conference table. On a huge magic sand table placed on it, Yue Jinghong was pointing at the place that marked this small city: "Here, Aguirre City. It is seventy kilometers from the mouth of the valley south of the Black Wind Valley. At the speed of the beast, it would take about an hour and a half! We prepared a thousand cattle and sheep in the center of the town in advance, and slaughtered a hundred and ten first, so that the smell of blood would disperse. The others waited for His Excellency Hua Yuntian to lure the Beasts here and attract them to kill. And here, "Yue Jinghong drew a circle around the magic sand table projection in Aguirre City, "we plan to gather all the plant and earth magicians to ambush around, and when the beasts rush into the town and are ready to slaughter those cattle and sheep, use the magic barrier to build a wall that can block the beasts, so that the beasts cannot escape." Of course, for the sake of thoroughness, I still hope to leave a group of mercenaries with senior titles just in case!"

"What does it mean that we don't have to worry about the beasts being brought to the city?" asked His Excellency Charles Kubista, the leader of the Sharp-Horned Mercenary Regiment of the Earth Dragons, with a frown.

"Everyone will know about this sooner or later, and I don't have to be a villain in vain!" Yue Jinghong said with a majestic posture: "Through the observation of His Excellency Kachipur, our deputy head of the group, we have reason to believe that one of these group of underworld beasts may have a spatial attribute elemental equipment hidden on its body. The effect of this equipment is amazing, it may be able to tear through space and even cross the plane! The Underworld Beasts have left the Black Wind Valley twice unnoticed, and once suddenly broke through the defense line of the camp on the back, we believe that they all rely on this equipment! In addition, I speculate that these Immortal Beasts also rely on this equipment when they come to Aegean!"

As soon as Yue Jinghong said this, the venue immediately exploded. Magical equipment that can tear through space and even cross planes is not an exaggeration to call it an artifact!

Lei Sizhen's eyes were even brighter, his eyes were rolling, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Not only Lei Sibing, but almost all the powerful guys are making their own little calculations. Artifact: Alas, how can this thing be said to be let go? Whoever grabs it is whoever grabs it!

"I hope you can give someone Yue a face!" Yue Jinghong's face was not very good-looking, and if he was working against so many mercenary groups at the same time, even if he had a lot of money in the mercenary group, it would be difficult to bear it. Not to mention that there is also hob meat like Lei Sizhen? Yue Jinghong gritted his teeth: "That's good, in addition to the three million gold coins offered for the reward, I will give another two million gold coins at sunset, if everyone agrees with me, it will be distributed to each team participating in this operation, according to the size of the team, but it is guaranteed that it will not be less than 10,000 gold coins! As for this artifact, Yue Mou is determined to get it!"

The head of the mercenary group was a little hesitant, since Yue Jinghong had already said it to this point, if he didn't give face, he would really make a feud. Offending a behemoth like Sunset is not a wise act. And there is only one artifact, whether you can grab it or not, if you don't promise to get the money in the end, this time it will be in vain. The losses of the previous attack on the camp were in vain. 10,000 gold coins is not a small number, and for an A-level mission, the bounty is only 10,000 gold coins.

The leader of the Sword of Radiance, who is also Ventora's boss, His Excellency Gamelil Audlin, first agreed with Yue Jinghong's opinion. Yue Jinghong generously gave Odlin a gold coin roll of 200,000 gold coins on the spot. This is a currency certificate commonly used in the mainland, which is jointly guaranteed by the six major guilds and seven major consortia, and can be exchanged at any business guild residence in the Aegean.

The Sword of Radiance was the largest team in this mission except for Sunset, and they were the first to agree to the conditions, and other mercenary groups that were not as large as the one had to admit it. Otherwise, God knows what Yue Jinghong will do? There are few bigwigs in the mercenary world who are easy to talk to, and they are all cold and bloodthirsty.

The mercenary group all agreed to Yue Jinghong's conditions, but Yue Jinghong still had a headache, because Lei Sizhen was crossing Erlang's legs and looking at him with interest. Yes, Lei Sizhen did not express his position.

Yue Jinghong was a little painful. In order to satisfy the leader of the mercenary group, he has already given away almost five million gold coins. The remaining share is only sixty or seventy thousand. Although this number is not small, it may not be able to satisfy Lei Sizhen's appetite. And if Lei Sizhen really didn't give this face, and deliberately snatched the artifact when he acted, Yue Jinghong really didn't have any good way. Lei Sizhen is the top master of the thunder system, and his instantaneous burst speed is super first-class, and he is no longer good at treasure grabbing.

With money? Yue Jinghong pondered helplessly, Lei Sizhen was born in a wealthy family, and it was not much worse if there was a gold mountain in his family. Moreover, as a lone boss in the mercenary world, Lei Sibing has a lot of income, and his expenses are smaller than those of them who lead the team, so he has a lot of money. If you give less, it's definitely useless. But if there is more......

Yue Jinghong invited three foreign aides this time, two lone mercenary bosses and one killer boss. Among them, Feihong Wuying and Yue Jinghong are old friends, and they owe Yue Jinghong a small favor, so they symbolically received 50,000 gold coins to help. And the other two are all lions with big mouths. Another mercenary boss received 150,000 yuan and promised to come over to help, and His Excellency the Phantom Demon Sword was 300,000 gold coins in one mouth! These three people were 500,000. Coupled with the five million distributed to the mercenary group, Rao is Yue Jinghong is worth a lot of money and has some pain.

"Your Excellency Lei Sizhen!" Yue Jinghong thought about it and gritted his teeth: "Since you have already come, naturally I can't let you run in vain, in this way, 400,000 gold coins, please raise your noble hand, it can be regarded as a favor owed to you by my Yue." ”

Ye Hanshuang pouted for a while, should he say that Yue Jinghong is generous or Lei Sizhen is awesome? As soon as he opened his mouth, it was 400,000, and he still owed a favor, and the entire regiment of those small mercenary groups was only 20,000 or 30,000 gold coins!

Lei Sizhen raised his eyebrows, grinned, and showed a mouthful of white teeth: "Deal!"

Lei Sibing agreed to the conditions, and after accepting the gold coins, the atmosphere of the venue became relaxed and pleasant, and everyone expressed their opinions and would improve almost step by step. Some loopholes that Yue Jinghong didn't expect before were picked out one by one, and solutions were found with the help of collective efforts. Until the head of a small mercenary group raised a doubt.

"We trust the skills of His Excellency Feihong Shadowless, but after all, we have to deal with thousands of Immortal Beasts, and the only way to lure them out of the Black Wind Valley is at night. Forgive me for taking the plunge, I think that even if Your Excellency Feihong Shadowless is extremely powerful, this matter is still very dangerous!" said the little mercenary leader.

"This is true!" Yue Jinghong nodded, with an expected expression: "Although I am also very confident in Brother Hua Yuntian's skills, after all, I am facing a ferocious beast, and the environment is still very unfavorable, so I plan to choose another assistant for Brother Hua Yuntian!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were on Lei Sizhen. In their opinion, he was the only one here who had the ability to seduce the beasts. The speed of thunder and lightning is naturally not to be said. And the strength of his Heavenly Fighter also guarantees that he will not be quickly killed by the Immortal Beast. In the end, he took Yue Jinghong's 400,000 gold coins, he can't just take the money and not work, right?

But the Lei Daguan was still planning to just take the money and not work, and I saw him holding a palm-long knife, carefully trimming his nails, as if the topic of conversation had nothing to do with him since he got the gold coin.

Rao is Yue Jinghong didn't plan to let Lei Sizhen make a move from the beginning, seeing that Lei Sizhen had nothing to do with Lao Tzu's urine, he was so angry that he couldn't go back. Secretly comforting himself that he was not as knowledgeable as this kind of people, Yue Jinghong smiled and said: "Your Excellency Lei Sizhen is of course extraordinary, but being responsible for such a trivial matter as luring the beast will inevitably use a knife to kill chickens. Besides, the thunder system's fighting spirit is strong, but the sustained power is not as strong as that of the wind system, if you want your Excellency Lei Sizhen to get rid of the beast, then naturally there is no problem, and you can get rid of it for a few kilometers in minutes. But let him seduce the beast, it will be difficult for some strong people. Everyone thought it made sense when they heard it, but apart from Lei Sizhen, who else could do this?

The other mercenary boss is plant-based, and the speed is just like that. As for His Excellency the Phantom Demon Sword, you say that he can hide under the nose of the Immortal Beast without being discovered by the Immortal Beast, we believe it, but it is not necessary to say that he can escape for his life under the pursuit of a group of Immortal Beasts.

Seeing everyone's overwhelmed expressions, Yue Jinghong smiled and said, "You may not know, there is also a young talent in our group of people, who once entered the Black Wind Valley alone to investigate, and he was able to escape when he encountered a dark beast!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and looked around at the people around them. There are not many people here who can be called teenagers, and most of the younger people in their twenties follow the big guy to bring tea and water. Very few can sit. The youngest of them are Ventora and Nightfrost.

Ventola knew a lot of people, and the young magicians in their early twenties were radiant wherever they were placed. However, he is the main water system and supplemented by the wood system, and neither system is very suitable for escaping. As for the night frost, most people choose to skip it. First, he sat behind Ventola rather than at the conference table, and secondly, he was a little younger than Ventola, though his gray hair looked a little old.

Ye Hanshuang estimated that Yue Jinghong was talking about him, but Yue Jinghong didn't mention his name, so he pretended to be stupid. Ventora had just settled an account with him while everyone was discussing. The Sword of Radiance was divided into 200,000 coins. The head of the regiment alone will take 30,000. Then 100,000 yuan was handed over to the team finances, and 30,000 yuan was used as the pension of the sacrificed team members. And only then it was their turn. Deputy Commander Luo Youxian and the Holy Sword Team will take 20,000. The remaining 20,000 is divided between the two captains who participated in this event. That is, Ventola and his brigade can get ten thousand gold coins. Ventora herself will be able to get five thousand, and will give two thousand to Nightfrost.

Nightfrost is here to help Ventola, and whether he helps or not, he already has two thousand in his account, which is already the amount that Nightfrost originally expected. Ventola, as a senior, still takes care of his younger brother quite a bit.

Two thousand gold coins was not a small number, and it really made Night Frost excited.

When he and Dalton went to the Luna Temple, Night Frost got more than 200 blue crystal coins. It is equivalent to more than 200,000 gold coins. After returning to Aegean, I changed to a savings card for the first time. He did this thanks to Night Frost, because he later encountered danger one after another, and he was once in the Red Realm, and basically lost everything except for a limited number of magical equipment.

The debit card was also lost in the red realm, but the debit card was named. Ye Hanshuang reissued a savings card after issuing an identity certificate, so although there was a bit of a loss, most of it was still there. So Ye Hanshuang's current net worth is twenty to two hundred thousand gold coins! If Yue Jinghong can't come up with a number that makes him excited, he has no intention of taking risks, the last time he was hit behind by the Immortal Beast, he still has palpitations in his heart.

Yue Jinghong glanced at Ye Hanshuang intentionally or unintentionally when he spoke, he thought that as soon as he opened his mouth, Night Hanshuang would stand up in fear, but Ye Hanshuang didn't pay attention to him at all. In fact, he is also to blame for this, he learned about Night Frost from his mistress Codry. However, at that time, Yue Jinghong was in a hurry to help Cordry undress, so although he knew about it, he didn't know much about it. He also thought that Nightfrost was purely a member of the Radiant Sword. This mistake made him do the wrong thing in the first place, so that he appeared to be a little passive.

Seeing that Ye Hanshuang didn't answer, Yue Jinghong had no choice but to continue: "The Sword of Radiance can be described as full of talents, His Excellency Ventola was promoted to a magician in his early twenties, which really embarrassed us old guys, but what surprised us even more was that the young talents of the Radiant Sword were not only His Excellency Ventola. Night Frost Little Friend, don't be shy, come out and let everyone know!"

People have already named names, and the night frost naturally can't wilt. But he didn't care, he stood up with a big grin, and watched Ye Hanshuang stand up, and there was a discussion in the conference room, Ye Hanshuang was too young! Ye Hanshuang didn't care, and said with a smile: "I've seen Your Excellency Yue Jinghong, but Your Excellency must have misunderstood." I'm just here to get together with Ventora seniors, and I'm not a member of the Sword of Radiance. ”

Yue was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Codri did seem to have said that this night frost was Ventola's junior Yunyun, but at that time he was working Codri's plump and white delicate body. So I didn't take it to heart at all. It's a little embarrassing this time. Originally, he thought that Night Frost was a member of the Radiant Sword, but he had already given the Radiant Sword a huge sum of 200,000 gold coins to let one of their members help, and their leader, His Excellency Gamelil Audlin, would not be able to refuse no matter what. But I didn't expect that Night Frost was not a person from the Radiant Sword at all.

"Hehe, I misunderstood!" Yue Jinghong is also a person who has seen the world, and he is not surprised, when he heard that Night Frost is not the person of the Radiant Sword, he also paid attention to solicitation by the way, and said with a sincere smile on his face: "Since the little brother does not have an owner, I am thirsty for talent at sunset, I don't know if I am a friend of Night Frost, but I am willing to come to my sunset to take up a job?" ”

"Thanks to Your Excellency the head of the regiment, the kid is flattered," Ye Hanshuang smiled, and said respectfully: "But the kid is used to being free, and he really doesn't obey the rules." I had to live up to the kindness of His Excellency the head of the regiment. ”

For Ye Hanshuang's refusal, Yue Jinghong didn't care much about it. Young people, who always disobey the rules and want to break through, will be honest if they hit their heads and bleed. Besides, I don't know how capable this kid is, and if that kid really asks an eye-opening question like what kind of treatment he can give, he really can't answer it. So he laughed, said regret and revealed it, and turned back to the matter of seducing the monster again: "I heard the deputy head of my family mention that Xiaoyou once broke into the Black Wind Valley at night, and his courage is really commendable, I don't know if I am interested in taking a risk? ”

"It's bustling, it's profitable. The kid is young and vigorous, and he is really bold for the gold coins. Night Frost snorted: "That night, I didn't know how to enter the Black Wind Valley, but I was surrounded by the beasts by mistake." Although he was lucky enough to escape, he was still injured, and now that I think about it, I still have some lingering palpitations!"

Yue Jinghong has a toothache, this kid is not very old, but the emphasis of the rivers and lakes is very tasteful, although he is not really old-fashioned, but it is estimated that he is no longer the kind of little hot-blooded young man who will follow you as soon as his head is hot. Bustling, profit comes and goes. This sentence was originally supposed to be that the hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. To put it bluntly, I can't afford to be early. Surrounded by the beasts of the underworld, it was a fluke to escape, that was to show off its strength. Even though I was surrounded, I could still get out. I have palpitations, but I am bold for the gold coins! That is, if you don't give money, I'm sorry, I'm scared of my timidity, if you give enough money, I'll be bold!

Many of the people here are old rivers and lakes, so they can naturally hear the meaning of the night frost words. Originally, there was still a little contempt, but it suddenly converged a lot. And Lei Sizhen looked at the night frost with interest. There was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, thoughtful.

"Mingren doesn't say dark words!" Knowing that the other party was not stunned, Yue Jinghong was not going around in circles: "Everyone knows the danger of this operation, so naturally we can't let Xiaoyou take risks in vain." In this way, if the little brother agrees to this operation, Yue is willing to give five thousand gold coins, how about it!"

Five thousand gold coins is not a small number. Ten gold coins is enough for a family of three for a month's expenses, and some small mercenary groups in this operation, dozens or hundreds of people in a team have only received 10,000 gold coins. Yue Jinghong thought that he was already very generous.

"Your Excellency the Regiment Commander is really generous!" Ye Hanshuang smiled quietly and said softly: "But I don't know, Your Excellency the Regiment Commander gave His Excellency Hua Yuntian, what is the price?"

As soon as these words came out, Yue Jinghong's face changed suddenly, not only him, but all the mercenary leaders present looked at Ye Hanshuang with idiot eyes. Even Lei Sizhen's eyes flashed with a hint of strangeness, and he shook his head slightly.

"What a arrogant young man, why, do you think you should be treated the same as me?" a clear but mocking voice remembered as a man who looked to be in his twenties pushed the door open and walked in. This is a man of oriental origin, with black hair and black eyes, and a tall build. Although the appearance is not handsome, it is also angular. His gaze was very sharp, and there was a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth.

Many people recognized that the person who came was Fei Hong Wuying, Hua Yuntian, one of the top ten lone mercenaries in the Aegean mercenary world.

The appearance of Hua Yuntian made the room, which was already quite quiet because of the night frost, even more audible.

It seems that the posture of the people. Ye Hanshuang had already guessed that this person was Hua Yuntian. Speaking of which Night Frost was a little puzzled, according to Ventola, this Hua Yuntian was already in his forties and almost fifty, how could he look like he was twenty-five or sixteen? But for Hua Yuntian's gaze or the atmosphere in the room, Night Frost didn't care at all. Smiled lightly: "Yes, what?"
