Chapter 1148: Insatiable
Soros, the top executive of the Thieves Association, one of the two vice presidents, his status in the Thieves Association is second only to the president, he is only six hundred years old, a ninth-order assassin, generally a ninth-order powerhouse can live for about two thousand years, and he can also be called a young man.
He now looks like a middle-aged man, which has something to do with his past experiences.
Born in the slums, he lost his parents and relatives at a very young age and became an orphan, and was bullied, but he survived tenaciously, if he hadn't caught up with the thieves' association when he was eight years old to recruit orphans all over the world to train killers, I am afraid he could only live at the bottom of the world until he died of old age.
After joining the Thieves' Guild, he underwent a decade-long brutal training before reaching the end with a tenacious will, followed by a long career as an Assassin.
For more than 500 years, he couldn't count the number of lives that died in his hands, and he stepped into the ninth order at the age of more than 500 years, vicious and cautious, and became one of the vice presidents of the thieves association step by step.
His life can be called a legendary one.
Nowadays, he rarely goes out on missions, and the truth is that there are very few people who can afford to ask him to help, and most of them usually sit at the headquarters of the Thieves Association, or venture out to seek opportunities in dangerous places.
Today, when he was sitting at the headquarters of the Thieves Association, Poplar came, a person who he couldn't see through, and someone who could see through his hiding place at a glance, which made him very jealous.
Originally, he thought that Poplar would have a fierce battle uninvited, but the other party had only come to make a deal to find out the whereabouts of the temple.
The Thieves' Association, itself a gray organization engaged in intelligence trafficking and assassination missions, has no reason to push out the door.
The mysterious temple, of course, the thieves association doesn't know where it is, but because the temple is too mysterious, the big forces in the world have not given up tracking down its news, and the thieves association also has some information about the temple.
For ordinary people, these materials may be secrets that they can't access in ten lifetimes, but among the top powers, they are nothing, and everyone has more or less mastered some information about the temple, so if someone can afford to pay the price, it is naturally understandable to exchange these useless materials for payment.
Hearing Poplar's words, Soros's mind raced, weighing the value of the temple information he had, and still speculating about what price Poplar could afford.
Since it is a business, of course, we must strive for the greatest profit.
After a moment of silence, he looked at Bai Yang and said the quid pro quo, "Artifact, about the temple information, only the artifact can be traded, and only the artifact can reflect the value of the temple information!" ”
Artifact, to put it bluntly, is the ninth-order artifact of this world, because after the ninth-order, the title of the powerhouse must be prefixed with a god domain prefix, so the ninth-order artifact is also called an artifact.
In other words, with Poplar's understanding, the artifacts of this world are almost the eight-grade artifacts on the Tianyuan Star, and the Earth Emperor Mirror True Divine Mirror can only grasp and exert its power.
Eight-grade artifacts, to be honest, on the Tianyuan Star, the Earth Emperor Realm True God Realm can't make a single one, which shows its preciousness.
However, there is no shortage of such things in Bai Yang's hands, and it can even be said that if Bai Yang throws out the eight-grade artifact in his hand, he can be stoned to death!
Without him, Poplar had collected too many of these items on the Eternal Ship, and although most of them had been broken over the years, they were still in surprising quantities.
It is conservatively estimated that there are 18,000 eight-grade artifacts in the hands of Poplar!
How many aspens have not yet been sorted out......
The Eternal Ship is too old, and those who come on board are the strong, and there are too many things on it for endless years.
Regarding the quid pro quo proposed by Soros, Poplar thought about it for a while, and felt that it was fair, after all, the news of the temple was a clue related to the existence of at least ten orders in this world, and in Poplar's understanding, the existence of the tenth order in this world was estimated to be at the emperor level.
In the middle of his hand, a ruler-long pitch-black dagger appeared in Poplar's hand, which looked inconspicuous, but in the eyes of those who actually carried it, they could feel the terrifying power it contained.
This is an eight-grade weapon dagger, just worthy of the first eight-grade only, with a sense of historical vicissitudes, in the poplar mastered a bunch of eight-grade artifacts, this dagger can be said to be the most rubbish, take it out as a transaction is not distressed at all.
Holding the dagger, Poplar looked at Soros and said, "Give me information about the temple, this dagger is yours"
Buying and selling, each taking what he needs, and if you want to get what you want, of course, you have to pay the price, which is fair, isn't it?
However, Poplar still underestimated the value of this eight-rank dagger in this world.
Originally, Soros proposed to use the ninth-order artifact as a trading condition, and he was already bargaining with a black conscience, since it was a sale, of course, he had to bargain back and forth, and he didn't expect Poplar to simply take out an artifact.
Especially the casual posture of Poplar, which makes Soros's heart lively, can he fight for more benefits?
But he was a little hesitant in his heart, Poplar could see through his hiding place at a glance, and he could take out an artifact at will, the origin was probably not simple, and it would be inappropriate to provoke him.
However, people's hearts are greedy, and who wants to give up if they can get more benefits effortlessly? After all, after this village, I am afraid that there will be no more such shops.
Again, this is the base camp of the thieves' association, and the other party may also be afraid, which also increases their bargaining chips.
Everything in the world is risky, and when you drink water and get choked, it's worth it to get more benefits and take some risks......
Weighing in his heart, in the end greed prevailed, Soros looked at Poplar with an unchanged expression, but said very tentatively in his heart: "This gentleman, you may have misunderstood what I meant, I mean exchanging artifacts for information about the temple, but not one"
Poplar pinched the eight-grade dagger slightly, probably understanding the other party's mentality, people's hearts are greedy, this is understandable, Poplar also understands.
But the other party is trying to blackmail himself......
Quietly, Poplar frowned and asked with a pretending to be in pain, "How much does it take to exchange for information about the temple?" ”
The other party can really come up with more artifacts!
Soros's heart skipped a beat.
He is not brain-dead with a cautious personality, and understands that no one is a fool at their level, and Poplar can come up with more artifacts to prove that the other party is bigger and more dangerous.
However, if you can exchange the news of the temple for multiple artifacts that are not of much value, how can you give up this profitable deal?
With a sharp turn of mind, Soros decided to slaughter Poplar with a knife, and everyone can discuss it slowly whether it will succeed or not.
Then, he once again ignored his conscience, and his heart was so black that he felt embarrassed and said, "Five, five artifacts, I'll give you news about the temple!" ”
To be honest, when he said five artifacts, Soros himself was trembling, you must know that the artifacts are too rare, so far he doesn't have one in his hands, even the best alchemy craftsman can't create an artifact for a hundred years, and every time it appears, it will cause a bloody storm.
Five artifacts, if you get them yourself, Soros has already imagined that he will beat the chairman and step on the majesty of the three alliances.
The premise is that Poplar can take it and give it to him willingly.
sighed in his heart, Poplar had to say that people's hearts are greedy, you said that the artifact can be exchanged for news, if you give it to you, I will give it to you, but you shouldn't treat me as a fool.
With a wave of his hand, five eight-grade artifacts appeared in front of him and floated in the air, and Bai Yang looked at the other party and said with a smile: "Five artifacts, I have them, but what about the information I want?" ”
When the five eighth-grade artifacts, that is, Soros's so-called ninth-order artifacts, appeared, his eyes widened in an instant, and his hairs exploded and his eyes were bloodshot.
His gaze swept over the artifacts with restrained divine light, and a voice in Soros's heart roared, get them, once you get them, you will not be afraid of anyone in the world!
Even at this time, a crazy and bold thought appeared in his heart, if he killed this person, would he get more artifacts?
The appearance of this thought was like a weed growing wildly in his heart, and he couldn't stop it.
When the interests reach a certain point, it can really make people lose their minds.
Resisting the impulse in his heart to kill Poplar immediately, Soros felt that he would first fool the five artifacts in Poplar's hand, and then arm himself, at that time, with the strength of the entire Thieves Association of the Headquarters behind him, it would probably be stable to take a certain risk to take Poplar.
As for the consequences, not to mention whether you can get more benefits by taking down Poplar, even if it is just the five artifacts in Poplar's hands, why not take the entire Thieves Association?
"Wait a minute, I'll have someone fetch what you want now," Soros said with a deep breath.
The more critical the moment, the more calm he must be, Soros wants to do a big job, of course, he must consider all aspects clearly, and send someone to the news about the temple, and he is also arranging follow-up actions.
He didn't go to get it in person, because he was afraid that Poplar would run away, and the five artifacts would have to regret that his intestines would be in pain for the rest of his life.
Bai Yang nodded, smiled without saying a word, waved his hand and put away the five eight-grade artifacts and waited slowly.
How could he not guess what the other party had in mind? But so what, as long as you can get what you want, let's cooperate with you first.
Soon after, a man from the League of Thieves came to Soros's side and handed him a pitch-black box.
Getting the box, Soros nodded without a trace, and then opened the box in the direction of the poplar, and inside was an ancient animal skin, which was unclear.
He said: "This is a ninth-order dragon skin, we obtained it from an ancient ruin from three thousand years ago, it has information about the temple, the thing is here, take five artifacts in exchange!" ”
"Really? You have seen the artifact in my hand yourself, it is genuine, but it is just an ordinary dragon skin in your hand, and it is not known whether there is any information about the temple, out of sincerity, should you give me a priori to inspect the goods? Poplar squinted and smiled.
"This ......," Soros hesitated.
