Chapter 31: Alliances

[Drop, you received the transaction requested by the messenger of the Lord God No. 370890]

[Drop, you received a tracking paralysis dart from the main god messenger transaction No. 370890.] 】

【Tracking Paralysis Dart (Blue)

Level: Lv2

Category: Hidden Weapons

Attack: 30

Effect: Select a target, and the thrown dart will automatically track the target, causing a paralyzing effect for 3 seconds, and the number of uses is 1/1.

Introduction: Dr. Ziegler deliberately researched and built mechanical darts, so they have the ability to attack targets autonomously. 】

The attack and effect of this dart are quite good, but it is only used once, which is good as a surprise hole card.

Of course, Gu Xuan was not satisfied with just getting this little thing, and gave up the opportunity to compete for the championship. He was on the one side of the requested deal, so he naturally wanted to take advantage of the situation to get something else, such as intelligence.

Gu Xuan asked, "I also want to know about the recent actions of the Imperial Assassination Force. ”

Ai Ji was silent for a while after hearing this, and then his eyes shot out a sporadic cold light and said, "You want to meddle in the strategy of the mausoleum!" ”

The pupils contracted, and the vigilance that had been slightly eased after the transaction was completed once again became tense because of Edge's speculation.

"The strategy of the mausoleum is the Empire's recent big plan, so I naturally heard about it." Edge didn't say anything more, and fell into a dark silence for a moment.

Rustle rustle...... The temperature outside seemed to drop suddenly, and even the calm night breeze became noisy and cold.

"Come in." Gu Xuan invited Aiji, who was standing outside the door, to come in, and then lit a candle to light up the darkness.

Ai Ji walked in, gently closed the door and found a chair to sit on, and continued: "I'm not going to waste time here in Longxi City. ”

"Imperial Capital?"

"Yes."

Silence soon fell again, and the best way to protect yourself against a target you don't know is to make it impossible for this person to hurt you.

There are generally two methods, the first is to use communication, it is better to have more enemies than more friends; The second is to kill! Dead people don't hurt and threaten anyone, so ......

The latter, Gu Xuan was not sure that he could really kill Aiji, not to mention that he was not a person who did things with this kind of character.

For the former, the biggest problem in communication lies in the authenticity of the information disclosed by the other party. Therefore, for the information revealed by Ai Ji that he was not going to participate in the mausoleum strategy, Gu Xuan would not easily believe it at present.

"Let's make another deal!" Without too much nonsense, Aegie continued simply and clearly: "Alliance. ”

"Alliance?" Gu Xuan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Ai Ji to say this, and immediately thought about this possibility. Ai Ji also knew Gu Xuan's scruples, so he didn't speak, quietly waiting for Gu Xuan's consideration.

The power line of the Crimson Pupil is actually very simple, and there is no hidden force behind it. On the imperial side: Ornest, Estes, and Bud represent the three forces. On the side of the revolutionary army: the army and the night attack represent two forces.

For the time being, it should be possible to rule out the possibility that Aggie chose the Revolutionary Army camp but joined the Imperial Army camp. Although no one cares about the identity of civilians in this world, if Aiji becomes the Four Rakshasa Ghosts, his identity and the people he comes into contact with will be strictly investigated.

Then Edge's joining Ornest's side must be something to gain. To know the camp opposition model, you can see at a glance that one side of the camp will lose. And the defeated camp naturally has no contribution reward to speak of, which means that the value of what Aiji wants to obtain is more than the cost of the failure of the dungeon world.

Otherwise, joining Estes or joining the Imperial Capital Garrison like Gu Xuan would make it possible for the Imperial Army camp not to be overthrown. Joining the side of Ornest, which led to the root of the empire's corruption, wouldn't the end result be the overthrow of the empire?

"My aim is to improve the rotten foundations from within the empire, and then organize an army to defeat the revolutionary army. So if we don't have conflicting interests, I agree to an alliance. A hint of coldness flashed in Gu Xuan's eyes, and he said his plan to join the Imperial Capital Garrison.

None of the messengers of the Lord God would be fools, and if they were, I'm afraid they would have died long ago. There was no need to hide anything at all, Ai Ji would definitely be able to guess Gu Xuan's intentions. Then Gu Xuan said this, it was a conspiracy, clearly showing what everyone knew, and then forcing Ai Ji to ask for his purpose.

If it succeeds, the two sides know the roots, and they can be regarded as allies tied to the same boat. If he failed, Gu Xuan would not lose anything, Gu Xuan's position on himself was a conscience on the surface. Then there is no need for Aiji to become an enemy, and Minister Earnest will also send people to start assassinating Gu Xuan.

This time it was Age's turn to be silent, he bowed his head and muttered for a long time, and suddenly moved.

At this moment, Gu Xuan was keenly aware of Aiji's movements, and his body took two steps back and stopped. However, there was no tense atmosphere, but a calm look at each other.

"I want to get the core of the Protector (Supreme Throne)." Edge nodded as if he was sure of something, and said his purpose.

"Really? So you also need my strength to knock it out from the "outside". Gu Xuan walked to the same place with a light smile, because he sensed Aiji's attack, which was only extremely fast and did not carry any strength.

Temptation, that's why Edge made a move. The condition for becoming an ally is that there is no conflict of interest, and the second is that both sides have the strength to take care of each other. Otherwise, it is impossible for a strong person to form an alliance with a weak person, or that is called asylum.

Aiji's agility can also be roughly judged, probably around H80, of course, you have to consider whether it is like Gu Xuan himself, with a bug skill like doubling attributes. But in short, it would be quite tricky to really become an opposing enemy with Edge. And there was no conflict of interest between them, or they both asked for each other, so Gu Xuan didn't mind forming an alliance with Aiji, a main god envoy of equal strength.

So the two of them continued to talk as if nothing had happened.

"I need a list of Minister Ornest's assassination plans, and evidence of those dirty deals." Gu Xuan saw Ai Ji's default nod, and also put forward his request, that is, to make Ai Ji a spy-like identity to help him protect the life of the conscience faction official. And to arrest those who are at the root of corruption, to come up with a wordless proof.

"Okay, you can take this contact letterhead, and you will contact you when you come to the imperial capital."

[Drop, you received the transaction requested by the messenger of the Lord God No. 370890]

[Drop, you received the contact letter for the transaction of the Messenger of the Lord God No. 370890.] 】

[Contact Stationery (Age): Close the letter with both hands for 10 seconds, the contacted party of the contact letter will sense the location of the contact party, the number of uses: 10/10. 】

After the transaction was completed, Aegie stood up, walked to the door, and finally said, "The Imperial Assassination Force Reinforcement Team will start the strategy plan for the mausoleum in ten days. ”

"Hmm." Gu Xuan also got up to send him off, stretched out his hand and said, "Happy cooperation, reintroduce myself, Gu Xuan." ”

Aiji's expressionless face fluctuated in surprise, and he immediately stretched out his hand to shake Gu Xuan: "Aiji." ”

Then Aggie, dressed in pitch black, seemed to really melt into the night, and disappeared silently.

Gu Xuan went back to bed again, his dark eyes looked at the starry sky outside the window, and he couldn't sleep again...... I wonder if Agulola is also looking at the stars at night at this moment?

When you are lonely, you still have to protect the thoughts in your heart.

ps: I can't sleep together...... Nervousness and apprehension to be put on the shelf
