Historically, the things that have driven people crazy are nothing more than desires, and power and wealth are only the means needed to satisfy desires. Lust can drive people crazy, and it doesn't have to be negative desires. A good person, a person who cares about the world, may also go to unscrupulous means to obtain power and wealth for his good, and the so-called good has become part of the desire.

And there is no greater authority to satisfy desires in the world than the emperor, so whether it is a good king or a bad king, the struggle for the throne has always been cruel and uncompromising, both public and private, and it has nothing to do with the thoughts of the candidates for the throne.

The battle in the mortal kingdom is still so fierce, and the royal competition for all the goblins can only be too much. Due to the strange customs of the elves, Atta is forced to become the first in line to the throne of the next elf queen, so no matter what she thinks, there will always be people who hope that she will not be crowned. After an unsuccessful attempt to dispatch a Yew Legion, it is not uncommon for the other party to post the bounty directly among mortals.

"Can you find out who the publisher of the task is?" "Rewards, naturally, will not be automatically cashed out, and if someone wants to collect money, someone has to send money. If there is no bounty publisher, the bounty is not valid.

"It's hard, it's possible if you have a lot of money, at least more than the bounty is offered. Jerry immediately replied, probably realizing that his answer was too simple, so he hurriedly added, "The system of this kind of trading in the rush is very mature, and there is a relatively fair mechanism for both parties. It's not hard to find loopholes in such a mechanic, but each joint is a lot of money. ”

The mage's radical cure plan has been put on hold, for the simple reason that they are not financially wealthy now compared to when they first arrived, and that they have to spend money everywhere here. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, weighed the pros and cons, and then raised his head and said to Jian Qi, "When you can get out of bed and walk, go and sell those two horses, they have become a burden now, and it is better to exchange some cash than to continue to transfuse blood." ”

For the traveler who is away, the horse is equivalent to a second life, and when necessary, he can take his owner away from the threat. Not to mention two prairie horses, it is easy to sell now, but it is almost impossible to get them back.

Of course, Cheese understands this, and of course he knows that there is still a way back after going to the City of Ten Thousand Laws, but the current situation does not allow them to plan for the long term, so they can only compromise first.

"Wait—" Atta opened her mouth trying to say something, trying to tell her companions that they had done enough for her. After all, the purpose of this team is to escort Cheese to the City of Ten Thousand Laws, and she is accompanied by her because she needs the mage. Now, if Cheese were to put herself in danger for her condition and sell her property, it would seem like putting the cart before the horse. But before she could say anything, the mage waved his hand.

"I promised to help you crack your background. Or do you still see me as just a wizard to help along the way?" Cheese smiled, taking the initiative to comfort his companion. Not to mention that this trouble was actively found on Ata's head, even if it was caused by the female swordsman herself, with this friendship, he would not stand idly by. Is it absolutely right? I'm afraid not, but it's refreshing and righteous enough.

Jerry listened quietly to the team's conversation, and the relationship was not difficult to sort out. After hearing the mage say without hesitation that he would not give up on Atta, his eyes changed slightly. But before he could think about it, Cheese's gaze had already fallen back on him.

To be honest, although these two people have experienced a disaster together, they haven't actually been together for long, and they are not very close. For this mysterious gray robe, I heard more rumors before leaving my hometown, and even less heard of it after leaving my hometown. It's the same with Cheese, who knows Jerry only as well as the boy he knew six years ago.

"Jerry, can you arrange for me to meet with the leader of the Nine Rings? Cheese said suddenly, judging by the tone of his voice, he wasn't joking.

"I don't think you can convince them that the people who are forced into gangs are licking blood on the tip of a knife. Especially as the leader of a new gang, his position does not allow him to compromise. "The nezumi is not talking about speculation, in a radical group atmosphere, the leader is actually involuntary, which is the same as the wolf pack, the head wolf cannot only meet its own needs, it must be responsible for the whole wolf pack.

"Words are only one aspect, but I still have some tricks that can make people give up their positions. Besides, there is more than one kind of magic in this world, and maybe I can find a way to coexist with each other. It's impossible to know these until you try them. Cheese's tone was soft, as had always been the case with those who had taught him to think like this, except that he had not yet gotten used to the smell of a pipe.

Seeing this, Jerry didn't say much, just nodded, "I'll try to arrange this as early as possible." At the same time, more information about the Nine Rings will be collected. Either way, they're the most aggressive force in the business right now, and if you can get them to give up the bounty by means of it, the rest of the people will hesitate as well. Let me add that there is actually a possible solution to this problem. ”

"Are you saying that you are looking for a powerful enough force to rely on?" In fact, you don't have to think very carefully to come to this conclusion, the reason why someone dares to attack the mages is nothing more than because they are just a group of newcomers who have just arrived in the rushing stream. Although they were lucky enough to live in the streets of the dwarves and got a relatively safe refuge, the dwarves did not fight for humans, which was not in their style. On the other hand, as long as the cheese can win over the rushing stream enough to deter the small forces, it can largely eliminate the possibility of this kind of thing happening, and it is very important to make money, and it is even more important to ensure that it can make money in the future.

"Let me try it first, and if it fails, I'll consider it. Speaking of this, Cheese's first thought was Lady Teresa, and it should not be difficult to climb the financier with the line of Kailas.

From the attitude of the other party last night, the mage already understood that there would be no love and protection for no reason. The dwarves are willing to provide shelter because of the Breath of Dawn in his hands, and he doesn't know what Lady Teresa's power is, but if someone else provides enough strength to resist the intrusion of forces like the Nine Rings, the price to pay will not be less. Cheese doesn't like to be a mercenary, and he doesn't like to be anyone.

Nezumi, left. Although the mage said that he wanted him to stay and talk about the recent situation in the past few years, he still decisively disappeared from the door on the grounds that there were many tasks to prepare. This is a complete assassin style, never because personal emotions interfere with the mission, everything is based on efficiency. From this point of view, he was trained very well, which made Cheese unconsciously think of his past self.

"Do you really want to go to the leader alone? Even if you have spells, it's too risky. Jian Qi frowned and expressed his concerns to the gray robe.

Cheese nodded, but didn't speak, the Sword-Seeker only saw this one trouble, but he had to think about a much larger and more complex problem, including the kid next door. In the face of such a huge problem, a gang with malicious intentions, there is no need to worry so much.
