Seeing that Mr. Slime had changed into a profiteer's face, Alan could only cry and laugh. Where is this still the sage teacher who instructed him, has completely become a bargaining vendor in the market, and he is still a very treacherous one.

Fasqi didn't expect Mr. Slim to open his mouth and go straight to Sicheng. You must know that the treasures of the old king of the blood clan are absolutely valuable. Among them, the most valuable thing is not the gold and silver money, but some special items and equipment inside, and even some special martial arts suitable for the blood clan to practice.

As far as Fasqi knows, almost all of the upper echelons of the Inquisition are controlled by humans. This is also to keep the original definition of the inquisition. Otherwise, after the upper echelons are mastered by supernatural lifeforms, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not fall to the side of the Cyborg Council. Therefore, the treasures of the old kings of the blood clan have lost most of their attraction to these high-level people. But Mr. Slim didn't look like a joke at all.

"Forty percent, are you sure?" Fasqi asked, confirming further, "I hope you have heard clearly that this is the treasure of the Old King of the Blood Clan, and that the contents are not of much use to the Inquisition. ”

Mr. Slim smiled, "If you had come back earlier, I probably wouldn't have asked for so much. But the time you have come back has been unfortunate, and we have suffered heavy losses on the alien battlefield. There is an urgent need for a large amount of equipment and supplies, and the Republic is now a little unable to make ends meet, so we can only rely on ourselves to make some extra money. ”

Mr. Slim looked at Allen and said, "Fasqi has reported your findings to me. And she also gave you a brief explanation of the situation of the Thlex. Now I won't hide it from you, but Fasiqi didn't say it in detail, and today I will take this opportunity to talk to you about the things on the alien battlefield, so as not to make you think that I am a lion with a big mouth. ”

"Fasqi has introduced you to the three main nations of humanity. The Empire of St. Athos, the Empire of Twilight, and the Republic of Steppen. The three nations were connected to each other by the survivors' corridors in order to resist the attacks of the Thleans. Even if the three countries are in a state of cooperation. But each country has its own theater of operations for which it needs to be responsible. Moreover, this theater of operations is not fixed, and every ten years, the military exploits established by the three theaters will be counted. Those with the most military merits can demarcate the area they want from the other two war zones. Those with the least military merits also need to pay a certain amount of money and materials to the other two countries. The most fundamental reason for such an agreement between the three countries is that the human kingdom will be more active on the battlefield. ”

"The expansion of the war zone meant that there were more Thleans to face, but it also meant that there were more military exploits. In this way, the more powerful the country, such as St. Athos, the more advantageous it is. Another point is that when the Thleans die, they leave behind a crystallization of the original energy solution, which is an energy substance that has been compressed to the extreme and has a variety of uses. Even under the research of the Chief Academy of Sciences of St. Athos, it is expected to replace steam power as the first energy source in the entire human kingdom. This is also the main reason why the human kingdom will expand the war zone at the expense of blood. ”

"But now, the republic is weak. Don't talk about competing for the first place, in the past two hundred years, we have been ranked at the end of every settlement, not to mention that St. Athos, who is chasing the first place, is several times behind the Twilight Empire, which is in second place. As a result, the strength of the republic weakened more and more, and it had to pay goods and money to the other two countries on a regular basis. This is the main reason why the Republic has been unable to support large-scale battles lately, and can only rely on the support of our Trial. ”

"Could it be that the other two empires really watched the fall of the Republic?" Allen's heart sank when he heard such news. If the republic falls, then the people of the republic will become the people of the country. At that point, the situation will be very difficult.

"Naturally, the two empires will not sit idly by. But once they intervene, the internal affairs of the republic will be completely external, and we will become vassals of the two empires. Mr. Slim sneered, "Although the war zone of the Republic is not large, if it is annexed by either side, then the other side will definitely jump to the first war zone." Just right. Recently, the critical moment of the change of consuls has arrived. The Senate is already arguing, and the military department, the Knights, and the cutting-edge laboratory all have their favorite candidates. The interior of the republic seems to be calm but in fact very dangerous, and with two empires eyeing each other, you can imagine how bad our situation is now. ”

"So. The Inquisition has reached a consensus and has taken the lead in the latest military merit settlement, so we have decided to raid one of the Thleans' main city in the war zone, and once the main city is captured, our military merit will surpass that of the Twilight Empire, which is ranked second. It's just that this plan is too dangerous, and the Inquisition has devoted all its energies, but the strength of the Thleans makes it difficult for us to move forward. Therefore, we must seize every opportunity to get supplies, we don't want any equipment, combat skills, etc. in the treasure of the old king of the blood clan, what we need is those real money. Even if we buy equipment from the other two empires, we will not hesitate to buy it. This is a battle that we can only win and not lose. ”

Alan couldn't help but nod, and then he looked at Mr. Slim and said seriously, "In that case, we, as citizens of the Republic, should also contribute. In this way, as long as the mission is completed, I will voluntarily donate all the gold coins in the treasure of the old king of the blood clan, and some equipment that we don't need will also be donated. ”

When Mr. Slim heard this, his eyes lit up, and Fasqi covered his face with his right hand. Just as Alan wondered how the two of them reacted, he saw Mr. Slime pull out a contract from his arms at lightning speed, and then grabbed Allen's right hand and pressed a scarlet handprint on it.

"Okay, Alan, I really didn't misunderstand you, on behalf of the Inquisition, I thank you for your generosity, as for the matter of the escort, I will return to the tower immediately, and I will give you a satisfactory answer if you leave for this time tomorrow." After Mr. Slim finished speaking, he rushed out of the room as if he had fled as if he had fallen into the wilderness, and then Alan inexplicably heard one or two loud laughs of successful tactics in the snowstorm.

"How do I feel like I've been fooled?" Alan looked at the firmly closed door and couldn't help but say with some chagrin.

"You idiot, you just knew!" Fasqi said angrily, "Did you know that Mr. Slim has a very famous name? ”

Alan shook his head innocently, obviously not knowing.

"The thousand-year-old fox who poured into the eyes of money!" Fasqi snorted heavily, "Although he usually looks like a master and a sage, but when he touches the question of money, he will instantly change as if he is a person." A stupid presiding judge like you doesn't know how much he has deceived, and if there is not a ten thousand, there will always be eight or nine thousand. You know, that's what he said when I first came here, and I can't imagine that it will be like this in a few years. ”

"Then why didn't you remind me earlier!" Eren began to regret it, and when he thought about the gold coins in the treasure of the old king of the Blood Clan, he felt his heart dripping blood.

"I warn you, you didn't even allow me to speak. If Mr. Slim does not hurry up and implement the agreement, it is impossible for you to go back on it. So don't think about it, you just pay the tuition fee with these gold coins, and next time be more thoughtful, don't be sold and help people count the money. Faski stood up as she spoke, then pushed open the door and walked out.

"The human heart is sinister, the human heart is sinister!" Alan couldn't help but beat his chest, this tuition fee is a little too much, right......

Early the next morning, Alan couldn't wait to rush into the Supreme Tower, because his identity as the third-level presiding judge had been registered, so he could naturally enter and exit the Supreme Tower freely with the power badge.

Fasqi waited in the tower early, and when he saw Allen, he beckoned, and the two of them walked together towards the top of the tower.

"Listen to me later, don't talk nonsense. Mr. Slim must have ulterior motives in asking us to come to the High Tower to find him, perhaps this time the operation is too much involved, and it is related to the treasures of the old king of the blood clan, it is very likely that the high-ranking inquisitor will come forward to discuss the specific details. So you just have to listen, no matter how the other party bargains, you just have to keep your bottom line and don't talk to death, understand? ”

Alan nodded: "Don't worry, I've suffered a loss once, if I'm still fooled, then I'm not really a fool?" ”

"I don't think you're much better than a fool!" Faskie couldn't help but tease, and then Bian and Alan went up the elevator to the top of the tower.

At the top of the Tower was a circular floating platform, and Alan was curious to walk up the hollowed-out steps with Fasqi. Looking down, it seemed that the entire Supreme Tower no longer existed, and Alan actually saw the vast snowy scene, but he couldn't feel the slightest cold feeling, and this illusion made Alan quite uncomfortable.

The suspended circular platform was already full of people at the moment, and Alan looked up to see that except for Slick standing in the center of the platform, Alan didn't know anyone.

Alan heard the bustling sound on the platform on the hollow steps, but when he actually stepped onto the platform, the surroundings were completely quiet, and many eyes came with curiosity and thought, all falling on Allen.

The feeling of being stared at like this made Alan uncomfortable, but the stakes were so high that he could only smile and walk in front of Mr. Slim.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the parties have arrived, now let's start our meeting!" (To be continued......)
