Chapter 253: Bribery

On the outskirts of Cloud City, inside an abandoned gas station.

The gas station is not big, and there is not much fuel in reserve. As early as half a month after the end of the world, almost all useful things were swept away by the survivors passing by.

After that, people passing by here could only sigh helplessly at the gas station that had been turned into a mess.

Over time, the professionals near Cloud City knew that there was no oil or water to be fished here, and they never came here again when they went out to search for supplies.

When Huang Cheng walked in, he found that the ground here was even covered with a thin layer of floating ash. Footsteps stepped on it, and suddenly left clear footprints.

This made him frown slightly.

Although he has only been a thief for a few months, he has quickly become accustomed to his new identity. The complex terrain and dark environment are the most suitable places for them. At the same time, no matter what the situation, it is important to take care to conceal your whereabouts and not leave any obvious traces.

The floating ash in the gas station made him give up the idea of waiting for someone to go in.

Anyway, it was very deserted, and there might not be a convoy passing by for a few days, so he simply stood directly in the shadow of the outer wall of the gas station. There it stood still, into a state of invisibility.

Although the concealment effect is terrible due to the light, it is enough to prevent passers-by on the highway from noticing his presence when they glance at it.

The hot wind blew, bringing in some of the withered leaves that had fallen to the ground, making a slight noise in the silence of the gas station.

Finally, this calm was shattered after twenty minutes.

Someone drove over from the direction of Cloud City and stopped outside the gas station unhurriedly. Then, a thief who looked a little sloppy and was wearing a level 5 leather armor jumped out of the car.

was probably a little weak-hearted, and he knew that there was no car following him along the way, but he still couldn't help but look around. Then he carried an empty oil drum, pretended to want to try his luck and see if he could find oil supplies, and walked slowly into the gas station.

"No one?"

Entering the outer wall and looking at the empty station, the thief couldn't help but be stunned.

Did you come early? Or did the other party have some accidents?

Just when the thief was a little uneasy, a figure sneaked up behind him, appeared when the thief was defenseless, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Who?"

The thief was frightened, and as soon as he let go of his hand, the empty oil drum he was carrying fell to the ground with a thud. He took a few steps back, turned around and drew his dagger, and bluffed it.

At this time, he realized that the person was actually what he was looking for, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. put down the heart that jumped to his throat and complained: "Dude, don't be scary, it's really going to be scared!" ”

It was none other than Huang Cheng, who had already arrived.

He snorted coldly and said, "You're at least a quarter of an hour late!" This little surprise is a special treat for you. ”

"Don't don't ......" The thief said a little weirdly: "I don't have that blessing, what special hospitality do I enjoy, Brother Huang, you should keep it for yourself." As for being late, I can't help it. In the past few days, the meeting has been very strict, and it is not easy to come out casually, and I also encountered a monster attack on the road, which delayed a little time. ”

"That's it."

Huang Cheng nodded reluctantly, agreeing with the other party's statement.

The thief in front of him is named Guan An, and he used to be a local professional in Shu County. The professionals under Fang Jin's command also did business with him and exchanged a piece of equipment at the same price. Later, Guan An didn't know what he did, and he had a grudge with a soldier with good strength, and ran to Cloud City two months ago to avoid the limelight.

When a friend of Huang An's accidentally contacted him again, he learned that Guan An was already a member of the Flying Crane League.

After some twists and turns, Huang Chengcai found Huang An through this relationship, and after the lure, he said that he moved the other party.

Today, this is the third time that the two have met this week, and it is also the official time for intelligence trading.

As for whether Guan An's words are credible, Huang Cheng is still certain about it.

First of all, he explicitly threatened the other side. With the power of the Salvation Guild, if he finds out that he has been deceived, he will not only send a master to hunt him down, but also issue a reward of 10,000 gold!

With this bounty, even if the high-level leaders of the Flying Crane Alliance want to shelter him, they can't stand the temptation of someone in the secret.

As long as Guan An is not stupid, he will not be stupid enough to invite disaster.

What's more, in addition to Guan An, Huang Cheng also contacted others. The information obtained will be cross-referenced and verified.

With such double insurance, the accuracy of the information can be basically ensured.

"I have limited time to come out this time, if Brother Huang has anything to ask, just hurry up."

Seeing that the late matter was successfully revealed, Guan An looked up at the sky and urged impatiently.

"Okay." Huang Cheng nodded and went straight to the point: "Is there such a person in your Feihe Alliance?" ”

As he spoke, he described the somewhat striking physical features of someone in the attack.

"As far as I know, no!" Guan An recalled for a moment, shook his head and said: "Such a conspicuous guy, and a bronze master, if there is really one in the alliance, I shouldn't be impressed." ”

His answer made Huang Cheng a little disappointed.

The other person before also said that he had never seen this person in the Flying Crane Alliance. In this way, it seems that the people who attacked the members of the Salvation Guild are likely to come from the other two major forces in Cloud City.

But just when he was secretly thinking like this, Huang Cheng suddenly thought of something, patted his head and said, "By the way, I remembered." Around this time last week, one of the Cyclamen Guild's vice-presidents came to the door with a few people to talk to our president. Of the few people he brought with him, there seems to be one person who is very similar to what you described. I should have been out training at the time, and I passed by them head-on, and I had a one-sided relationship. ”

"The Cyclamen Guild?"

Huang Cheng's heart was shocked, and he asked, "Are you sure you remember correctly?" ”

"What else can be wrong with that?" Guan An said with a big grin: "Zhang Chaofan, the vice president of the Cyclamen Guild, is one of the blatant masters of Cloud City. I've met him a few times and I'm sure it's a good look. ”

The problem seems to be a bit of a problem!

Huang Cheng's expression became a little serious, if it was really as Guan An said, the eight bronze-level masters who attacked them might actually be the two forces of the Cyclamen Guild and the Flying Crane Alliance.

If they had secretly reached an alliance to fight against the Salvation Guild, it would have been much more difficult to provoke and plant falsehoods.

What's more, these two are connected in series, so is the Cloud Dragon Gang involved?

"Cloud Dragon Gang? I don't know. ”

Guan An shrugged his shoulders, he was just a member of the Flying Crane Alliance, and he didn't know much about the other forces in Cloud City. Besides, if there is really any confidential matter, the high-level will definitely keep it strictly secret, how can he, an ordinary member, know about it?

"Well, there's another problem. Regarding the Yuncheng Strategic Reserve Grain Depot, has your president revealed any plans recently? ”

………

In the next quarter of an hour, Huang Cheng asked seven or eight questions one after another. Some Guan An can give a clear answer, but there are also some that he doesn't know at all, and even a little suspicious.

However, Huang Cheng finally gave the reward he had agreed with the last time they met: a second-order magic-grade green armor.

After all, there is a place where he will be used next.

Seeing Guan Anmei drive away with his new armor without looking back, Huang Cheng's expression was a little more gloomy.
