Chapter IX: Argo, the Intelligence Merchant

Zheng Shuanglong took the reluctant Asuna, kept a delicate distance, and walked through the forest like this, and walked into the north gate of Torbana, the public building area closest to the first layer of the labyrinth area. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Looking at the purple words [Inner Area] that appeared in the field of vision, Zheng Shuanglong, who understood that he had entered a safe neighborhood circle, quickly slid the window, ready to contact Claire and Shino Asada. Hand over Asuna behind you to them earlier, and let them deal with this girl who makes herself a little tricky.

Mourning is greater than dying, and it is also difficult for Zheng Shuanglong to deal with such a girl who is full of despair.

Zheng Shuanglong, who was making contact while walking, turned around and found that the pace of the girl named Asuna wearing over-the-knee boots had not slowed down. This made Zheng Shuanglong have an urge to sigh, Zheng Shuanglong didn't think that a few hours of sleep could completely recover the fatigue caused by more than three days of continuous hunting, probably she was still tense with a string.

Such a girl is really too troublesome, if it weren't for her talent, it was really good, very good, so good that if she exercised to a considerable extent, Zheng Shuanglong himself might not be able to beat the other party's level, maybe Zheng Shuanglong wouldn't be nosy. One more good player and one less good player are completely different in this Sword Art Online.

This quiet situation, although Zheng Shuanglong didn't care very much, but it was also a little embarrassing, just when Zheng Shuanglong was about to say something to Asuna, his keen eyes caught a petite figure who gave his team a lot of help and gave him a headache.

Zheng Shuanglong, who understood what was going on, had no choice but to say to Asuna calmly: "The gathering point of the Void Brigade team is in the central square of the street, and I have something to do now, so I won't accompany you over." When you arrive at the central square, you can see a girl with blue hair and a girl with short black hair with a team of four super cute young girls. ”

Listening to Zheng Shuanglong's introduction, Asuna hid her face in the woven hood and moved up and down slightly. His footsteps paused, and he muttered softly, "Lolicon!" After that, the slender body walked past Zheng Shuanglong's side. The breeze through the streets of the valley made the distant cloak swing.

"Am I being despised, Lori control something, sweat ......" Zheng Shuanglong, who was choked by Asuna's words when she left, couldn't maintain that gentle smile on his face anymore, and said with a bitter smile a little helplessly.

When Zheng Shuanglong felt sorry for himself, a female voice sounded from behind Zheng Shuanglong, "What a strange woman." ”

Hearing someone behind him say this, Zheng Shuanglong instantly put away the wry smile on his face, hung up a gentle smile, and turned his back.

"I thought she would die soon, but I didn't expect it to be. No matter how you look at it, it's a novice in online games, but the skills are very skilled. What kind of person is it? The person who has a characteristically nasal voice at the end of the sentence and continues to say it in a very sharp voice is a very, very petite figure who seems to be a very agile player. The ability of such players to save their lives and escape is still worthy of recognition.

"You're stranger than Asuna, Rat Argo, the best intelligence merchant in the SAO, I don't know what you're looking for me this time. Okay, if there is a task, I don't have time for these ten days, as for the reason, after seeing this swordsman lady, you should understand. Of course, if there is any valuable information, if the price is not so bad, and most importantly, if there is use value, I am happy to buy it. Seeing Argo, the most outstanding intelligence businessman, Zheng Shuanglong said with a commercial smile on his face.

A smiling countenance is one of Argo's hallmarks. On each of the two faces, three animal whiskers were painted with makeup props. Combined with its short, golden-brown curls, it is always reminiscent of a rodent. The danger is super low, and it is estimated that this is one of the reasons why Argo was able to make friends with Theo, Fi, Lixia and others in a short period of time.

In other words, it is clear that young women in their twenties can mingle with young girls such as Theo, Fei, Lixia, and Xili without any obstacles, what is going on. Could it be that the petite figure is too deceptive?

Looking at Argo's flat ****, Zheng Shuanglong thought thoughtfully.

"Hey, I don't know why, I always think you're thinking something rude." Argo, who noticed Zheng Shuanglong's gaze, endured the anger in his heart and said.

Although I am very familiar, as a businessman, I must look like a businessman, and a gentle smile that makes people relax is a must. Even if he is facing Zheng Shuanglong, a guy who is definitely thinking about something very rude, this is the case.

"Delusion, delusion. Well, let's not laugh, everyone's time is precious, what the hell is going on, let's talk about it. Waving his hand, Zheng Shuanglong diverted the topic and said quickly.

"Originally, there was a task that needed your help, but now that I see the situation just now, I have to find someone else, hehe, you are really kind in your heart. This is the twenty-third player you've rescued in more than 20 days, and I hope you can successfully pull him back from the abyss of despair. After looking at Zheng Shuanglong seriously for a while, Argo grinned and said, "Now, do you want to buy a little information, the latest is also the best." There is a lot of information that is very suitable for you, of course, familiar to familiar, business to business, not to discount. ”

"Kind, I'm not a kind person, the reason why I help them is just that they have the value of helping, and they won't waste much of my energy. If I don't have any value, I won't lend a helping hand, I'm not the one who can't help the unsaved, if I really can't save it, or if I will drag myself down, I can definitely give it up. Zheng Shuanglong shook his head slightly, smiled and said in a serious tone.

"WELL, I KNOW, I KNOW, YOUR EXCELLENCY ZHENGSHUANGLONG IS VERY COLD, VERY IMPERSONAL, VERY UTILITARIAN, WELL, IN THIS CASE, GO AND TALK TO THE TWENTY-TWO PLAYERS WHO WERE GRATEFUL AND AROUSED TO SURVIVE BY YOU. Well, I don't think it's just me, even they won't believe it. With a bright smile on his face, Argo said lightly.

A thousand words are not as good as one action. For Argo, an intelligence merchant who has a lot of knowledge about the Void Brigade formed by Zheng Shuanglong and his party, even if Zheng Shuanglong says too much, it is useless, the merit of saving the twenty-two players is real, and the event that rekindled the desire to survive of the twenty-two players is real.

Therefore, in Argo's view, no matter how much Zheng Shuanglong belittles himself, he is only modest, shy, or hypocritical.

Zheng Shuanglong is a good person, this is Argo's thoughts, if it weren't for a homebody, knowing the harm of good guy cards to people, Argo would definitely send a lot of good guy cards to Zheng Shuanglong, in this desperate, disappointed, hopeless death game, can lend a helping hand to others regardless of gains and losses, such a person is not a good person, who is still a good person.

As for what Zheng Shuanglong said about the kind of valuable person on the other party to lend a helping hand or something, Argo won't believe it, among the twenty-two players who were rescued, there are eighteen rookies who can't do it, what value can such a rookie have to penetrate this SAO, tsk, they can't give Zheng Shuanglong, who is already considered the top player class, any benefits, and their greatest value is that if they really clear the level, they can kill one less person. Abandoning the quest for this purpose and throwing away items of considerable value. Whether it's worth it or not is really a matter of opinion.

Like this time, didn't Zheng Shuanglong throw away a lot of loot and carry Asuna out of the labyrinth area. That's a day's worth of fighting, and that's not counting the leveling time spent guarding Asuna's dormancy. It's strange to be able to do this to other people you don't know at all, not to be a good person.

Hawkers, anyway, Argo doesn't hate Zheng Shuanglong like this. Don't hate the Void Brigade that doesn't have the same bitterness, despair, and sorrow as other players.

Looking at Argo's expression, "Just say it, I will never believe it", Zheng Shuanglong sighed, waved his hand and said weakly: "Forget it, since you think so, then so be it, after all, the head grows on your head." Really, no one believes it these days, to be honest, it's really bad enough. Well, what is the information, what is the price, if it is not too powerful, and if the practical value also exists, I will buy it. ”

Zheng Shuanglong is telling the truth, saving those people is really because they have the value of existence, a total of less than 10,000 people participate in the game, if you die too fast, too much, this game will not be interesting. It is precisely for this reason that Zheng Shuanglong will lend a helping hand when he is not troublesome. Really, why is everyone misunderstood, it's really bad enough. Don't you know that there will be no love in the world for no reason.

It was Argo, who used his skills to check Zheng Shuanglong's level, his expression became complicated, and he pushed Zheng Shuanglong's back and came to the nearby alley.

Argo, who stopped in the depths of the narrow alley, leaned against the wall of the private house, and said in a low voice a little helplessly: "It's only LV7, with your skills, it shouldn't be so slow, you must know that Kirito is already LV10, and he has reached the limit of the first layer." I don't know if I should sell you this information. The risk is too great. Am I going to postpone this information I bought, it's a bit too difficult, and if it takes a few days, I can't guarantee that it won't spread. ”

Argo never sold information obtained for free. When she judges that this information is "valuable", she will definitely pay the corresponding intelligence fee to the other party, and ask the other party to keep it secret, and then sell the information as a "commodity". As an intelligence merchant, she sells fake information once, and her credibility as an intelligence dealer will be ruined, which is a different kind of risk than selling the materials and items she collects from the maze to NPCs on the street, and it is also an energy-consuming errand.

"I'm really sorry that the level is not high enough, although it took a lot of Cole to buy a lot of information from you to facilitate leveling, but, you also understand, the gap between me and others, I want to take my team, they entered this game with me, and I can't do it if I leave them alone. Add to that the unexpected that comes up from time to time, like today's, and I've had almost a day's worth of experience. Zheng Shuanglong shrugged his shoulders and said with a wry smile.

"Yes, yes, I know, you're a really nosy, rotten good guy. Xili and Tio can obviously entrust it to Claire and Shina. Damn the winner of life, if you go on like this, you will fall out of the first team, you know, no matter how good the skill is, in this hierarchical game, the level is not enough, you will fall. If you drop too much, you'll be left uncovered by the unreasonable rules of the hierarchical game. Looking at Zheng Shuanglong, Argo said a little bitterly.

Should I say that this rotten good person's character is hateful, or does he like it? Argo couldn't tell. Because of this character, he saved the lives of twenty-two players and is now saving twenty-three. This is a good thing. It was precisely because of this that he shifted his gaze from Kirito's body to his.

However, it was also because of such a character that it seriously slowed down his leveling speed. Let a swordsman who should be the most dazzling swordsman is only barely in the first tier of all players.

It's a waste.,It's a bad thing.,The value of a top player with level and skill when attacking the boss.,But it's higher than a hundred ordinary players.,Although skill is important.,But level is everything.,This is the reality of a hierarchical game.。 The difference is ten levels, no matter how good the technique is, it will be crushed, and the difference is twenty levels, so there is no need to fight at all, and the attack is estimated to be not as fast as the opponent's blood recovery.

And according to Zheng Shuanglong's situation, he will soon be dragged down by the Void Brigade from top players to mid-level players, which is a particularly bad thing for Argo.

Reaching out and rubbing Argo's head, Zheng Shuanglong said with a bright smile on his face: "Hawkers, thank you for your concern, but, rest assured, when I break through the first layer, I will let Xi Li transfer to life skills and become a life player, specializing in practicing forging skills, after all, because it is directly related to life and death, there are very few players who improve forging skills, and although the NPC forging masters are all dwarf-looking people, their proficiency is not complimentary." Weapons and equipment are the player's second life, so it will be difficult to play the game without the support of enough life players. (To be continued.) )
