Chapter 209: Ending Cooperation and New Beginnings
Anyway, the Alliance team is responsible for stopping the expansion of the Abyss in various planes, and even if they go deep alone, they will definitely be able to get reinforcements from the Alliance in a short period of time, so finding crystal weapons in the local area is a matter of handy and will not add much trouble. At least on the surface, there should be nothing wrong with that.
It's just that Nangong Rong doesn't think that the shopkeeper will agree to this matter very simply, but will hit the idea somewhere else, which is why the young man took the initiative to bring up the topic.
Sure enough, as expected, after Nangong Rong finished speaking, Emilina shook her head and refused: "No, our main purpose is to hunt down the leaders sent by the Abyss to various places, just like if Rogge didn't come to Taven City to recover the crystal this time, we naturally wouldn't have paid attention to that thing." Sometimes, in order to ensure the suddenness of the attack, we have to hide our whereabouts for a long time, and it is impossible to search for information about the crystal in the open. ”
In the end, this is actually an assassination team, but the team members are so strong that in most cases they can choose to attack head-on, but the nature of the opponent does not change because of this, tracking the target, low-key concealment, and surprise attack are the basics, and the strong attack is just a last resort.
Of course, it is impossible for such a team to swagger in broad daylight under the nose of the abyss to investigate the matter of crystal weapons, and even if they want to, there are not enough people, and it is not necessary that everyone in the team has the same strength as the blonde girl, and if their whereabouts are exposed, they will probably cause many dangers.
Nangong Rong knew very well that the other party would definitely feel embarrassed to refuse, but he had to admit that this was another thing that had to be paid attention to, for example, if Rogge succeeded in recovering the crystal weapon of the Razfield plane this time, it would be the shopkeeper who would retreat gorgeously.
Therefore, after waiting for Emilina to finish speaking, the young man unhurriedly raised his index finger and proposed very seriously: "You are right, there is definitely no way to deal with both the Abyss Boss and the crystal weapon at the same time, and the energy, manpower and time are limited. However, before crystal weapons are affected by the abyss, they are only magical weapons that absorb the soul and life force of the user, so it should not be difficult to deal with. ”
"Although this is true, it is impossible for us to leave behind the Abyss Leader-level who will cause more harm, and turn to some planes that have not yet received the attention of the Abyss to search for treasures in the world, and you yourself said that our team is not manpowered......" The beautiful blonde girl suddenly reacted when she said this, "Do you say?"
Yes, this is Nangong Rong's idea, the boy plans to replace the elite team of the alliance to search for crystal weapons in those relatively safe planes, and then use his special physique to transform them, so as to completely solve this hidden danger.
The shopkeeper quickly understood the twists and turns, and couldn't help but ask with a little confusion, "Is this good for you?"
Even the alliance would not take the initiative to follow the abyss for no reason, and should it really cost the cost of maintaining a huge army and the pensions of soldiers killed and injured in battle? This has nothing to do with the so-called righteousness that the other party will sooner or later sweep through all the planes and kill everyone in order to ensure the survival and continuation of the intelligent race, and the reason why the alliance can chase the abyss all the way and fight without giving up halfway is purely because they have used various means to obtain a large amount of resources from the protected plane as a supplement.
There are normal fair trades, and there are also those that are directly snatched from the stunned young people who refuse to cooperate, but these have nothing to do with the shopkeepers, they are all handled by politicians - he just guessed that Nangong Rong probably had similar reasons to take action, so he asked that.
"Of course there are benefits. Others have no choice but to use the crystal weapon, but I have a way to transform and control it and turn it into my own combat power. When I was fighting with Rog for control of Octavir's crystal weapon, I found that it could merge with the one I already mastered, though it was eventually disrupted by the enemy. In short, the more crystals I find, the more power I get from fusing them, and eventually the stronger I can become. ”
Emilina, who was ponytail and seriously thinking about the young man's words, nodded lightly in agreement after a while: "Use the items and energy of the abyss to strengthen yourself, and then face the more powerful abyss monsters?" Although there are many uncertainties in the middle, such as whether you will be affected and corrupted by the abyss because you absorb too much energy halfway, but in general it is indeed a pretty good idea. So what exactly are you going to do?"
Obviously, the team is nominally the Crystal Palace of the store master, but it is Emilina, the main palace girl, who really leads the team and makes the decision, and the lord of the queen (divine beast) palace next to him has not even been able to find a chance to make a suggestion.
Considering the difference in force between the two, Nangong Rong felt that this seemed to be nothing strange, so he replied calmly enough: "I plan to cooperate with you." The Alliance provides a variety of information, including the recent movements of the Abyss, and then uses this information to determine which plane to go to, and then search for crystal weapons to retrieve them. It's also good for the Alliance, you don't need to worry about these dangerous items anymore, and if the Abyss takes any sudden action and doesn't have time to deploy troops, we can also be a temporary force to save the day. Well, it's a pretty good plan, right?"
"Sounds good, but you're talking about [us]?"
"Well, I definitely can't do it alone, so I'm going to bring Weiyin with me. Of course, if possible, I would also like to persuade some local powerhouses in different planes to join in, and it is better to form a team like yours. ”
So far, it's been a normal development, but the people who communicate with Nangong Rong belong to the alliance camp after all, so the blonde girl just tilted her head a little and didn't hesitate to deviate from the topic: "Could it be that you plan to go to various places to collect girls in the name of traveling with public funds, and then form a crystal palace like Zhou Yi to sprinkle dog food everywhere to flash your blindness, and really think that you are a light male protagonist who is directly invincible after crossing into another world?"
Fortunately, after a long-term exercise by a golden retriever cat, the boy has long had enough resistance to the sudden daily life, and when the scene did not change color, he replied without a beat: "If things can really unfold as you say, what do I have to mind, it's too late to raise your hands to welcome." ”
"Tsk, is it really because I've been with the device for a long time?,This reaction is completely different from the royal plot.,Hey.。 I said that the character of the system AI should not choose that guy as a template, it will definitely bring countless people, and sure enough, I was fed!"
The embarrassed shopkeeper finally couldn't help but raise his hand to interrupt his main palace: "That, Amy." Nangong Rong was obviously just complaining plainly, and he didn't show any signs of being taken away, right?"
"Shut up, or don't want to go to my bed tonight. ”
When Nangong Rong heard this, he immediately opened his mouth and put on a profound expression of "oh——] and looked at the shopkeeper.
However, Zhou Yi, who was full of black lines, couldn't care about dealing with the young man, and he almost burst into tears and stretched out his hand and pressed his sister's shoulder tightly: "To be reasonable, when did you agree to let me go to your bed?"
The girl slapped off the other party's salty pig's trotters unceremoniously: "Of course I didn't agree, so every time you try to climb into bed and attack me at night uninvited, don't you, and you still have all kinds of strange things provided by Lu Yin's friendship." ”
Nangong Rong's eyes became more meaningful when he looked at the shopkeeper.
"That's not a strange thing, it's obviously a serious computer accessory - ahh ”
"Did you know that your initiative was used in the wrong place!?"
After clapping his hands together and making a very loud sound, successfully attracting the attention of the two opposites and making them shift their eyes from each other to himself, Nangong Rong nodded at the other party unhurriedly: "Thank you for your hospitality, but I've really eaten enough, and this is not your two-person world, can we start talking about business again?"
To the surprise of the young man, the two people in front of him, who were unscrupulously discussing such a loving thing as a night attack, actually blushed when they heard this, and instantly made Nangong Rong look cute.
After a moment of silence, Emilina, who was very open-minded, coughed first and made a serious appearance to recover: "Uh, where did we just go? Oh yes, you're planning to form a team similar to ours." No problem, I can now agree to cooperate with you on behalf of the Alliance, providing information on everything from communication tools to the movements of the Abyss. ”
Nangong Rong knew that the alliance would definitely agree to cooperate, after all, his special physique had an absolute restraint effect on the abyss. In the past, he might only be able to use the support skills provided by the system to fight soy sauce and wait until the battle is over to clean up the environmental pollution caused by the abyss, but now the boy can continue to increase his strength by holding the crystal weapon prepared for him by the abyss, and eventually become an existence that can compete with the enemy boss.
For Zhou Yi and the others, the boy is simply a natural ally, and all they have to do is help a little.
"Well, it's better to also have reimbursement for all kinds of expenses and good logistics, and then have a comfortable transportation for everything from horses to hovercars, and then a maid who is skilled in everything from cooking and housework to fighting and shooting...... Am I overdoing it?"
However, the boy's gag did not stop the blonde girl from noticing the small anomaly in her plan, and the girl soon asked suspiciously: "Those unreliable ones are put aside, if you want to form a team, why did you only choose Lin Weiyin, and Octavir was ignored?"
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is the son of the current plane of the Razfeld plane after all, and there is no doubt about her combat power, what reason does Nangong Rong have not to bring her? Even the cooperation agreement with the alliance The young man has to deliberately hide from the girl, what is the purpose of doing this?
"Although I plan to transfer my compatriots from this world to Weiyin's hometown to settle down, it is not at all easy to say that I may not be able to reassure Octavil and the empire behind her. Nangong Rong's tone sounded very helpless, and he probably didn't know whether it was right to do this, "When the abyss hits, maybe we can maintain a short-term cooperative relationship, now that the abyss has retreated, the opponents in the country have been wiped out, and the alliance is still in chaos, what do you think the empire will do?"
"Take the opportunity to unify the continent. The couple in front of them said the same line without thinking.
The boy spread his hands and gave an affirmation: "That's right." Unless Rogge is willing to stay and lead the army of abyssal monsters in the alliance to continue to fight with you, no matter how many and powerful the number of miscellaneous soldiers is, they will only be scattered, and they will not be able to withstand the organized attacks of the empire - even the people of the originally hostile allies will raise their hands to welcome the empire's army, at least it is much safer to accept the empire's rule than to get along with monsters day and night. Thus, my compatriots and I became the biggest problem for the empire, which was destined to unify the continent in the future. ”
Octavir has no prejudice against Nangong Rong and the others now, but this can't change the minds of others, and a nation that tries to break away from the control of the empire itself is not much of a threat, not to mention that they are still ready to go to the other world to settle down, but if these people have had a considerable hatred with the empire since ancient times, it will be different.
What's worse is that Nangong Rong still has the strength and talent that is not lost to Octavir at all, and this group of Han people is definitely a hidden danger for the empire, and to be precise, a big problem in the future. They can't just let the teenagers take their compatriots out of control, slowly develop and accumulate strength, and eventually threaten the empire, and it is the safest way to always trample the Han people under their feet and never turn over.
In other words, even if Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess herself didn't realize it, Nangong Rong understood that her short-term cooperation with the empire had come to an end. The boy sought to cooperate with the Alliance, but also to let the other party help transfer his compatriots, as for why he wanted to hide it from Octavier, if the girl knew that Nangong Rong could become stronger and stronger by fusing other crystal weapons, she would definitely tell Ley and the others the news, and who would be able to remain calm at the top of the empire at that time?
Nangong Rong didn't want to pay attention to the assassination from the empire when he was busy transferring his compatriots, or send an army to attack in an open and honest manner, in order to get rid of himself completely.
