Looking at the movements of the five people opposite, the plot characters such as Gillym, who had originally noticed the abnormality, were a little confused. Because the dwarves were not familiar with Qin Lun and the others, they each guessed in their hearts whether the five people were friends of the other party, so they were only a little vigilant and did not overreact.

"Assassins of the Santarim Society?" Elistin looked warily at the grove.

"No, it's impossible, it's only been less than two days since the assassination, and the headquarters of the Santarin Society may not have received accurate information, how can they send someone over so quickly?" Mastasha shook her head in denial and looked at Qin Lun with a puzzled expression, she instinctively felt that this might have something to do with the silver-haired elf.

"It's the Apostle, the Apostle of the Santarin faction!" Qin Lun and the others quickly reacted and looked at each other cautiously.

"It's not like a deliberate provocation, I'll go over and take a look!" Rand drove his mount toward the grove.

Qin Lun and Mastaxia each took out their longbows and stood on the high place on the side of the road to sweep the formation for Rand. This place is only a few hundred meters away from the grove, although it is not a battle distance, but the two elven hunters gave Rand a sweep, which is enough to ensure that in a combat situation, Rand can hold on to the support of everyone.

Not long after Rand entered the grove, his slightly strange words came from the team channel.

"They want to join us!"

Qin Lun and Hill glanced at each other in surprise, as an apostle, whether they were in the same camp or in the hostile camp, they were all mercenaries of the Shattered Starry Sky. Competing tasks aside, they can work together at any time.

It's just that those five people were their mortal enemies two days ago. And now that the competitive task has just ended, it seems a little strange to run directly to seek cooperation.

"What price are they willing to pay?" Hearing Rand's feedback, Qin Lun's first reaction was that the five people on the other side were in big trouble.

Otherwise, it is similar to the previous fortress team, which must complete some specific goals in this world, but the original mission is destroyed by them, and the guide zhì does not have enough benefits. Or is it being hunted by the enemy, and you need to use their strength.

If this is the case, Qin Lun and the others don't mind letting these cannon fodder join the team. The first is that they have not yet received other tasks, and the second is that exploitation and anti-exploitation are sometimes just a thin line, and trouble is often accompanied by opportunities.

Of course, no matter what the situation on the other side is, since it is taking the initiative to seek cooperation, it is also the meaning of the question to pay some price.

"No, according to their own words, although they killed the necromancer who escaped from the Supreme Palace, they didn't leave too many hands behind, and the next pursuit of Santarin will not be a problem for them."

Rand responded truthfully, "They are asking for equal cooperation and a certain amount of payment to share our next story missions. ”

"If we receive the plot of the Secret Silver Hall, our existing strength is really not enough, if the other party is really sincere, we can consider cooperating!" Qin Lun frowned slightly, turned his head and asked, "Hill, what do you think?" ”

"If it can be proved that the necromancer really died at their hands, then the two sides have a basis for cooperation, and the plot camp is no longer an obstacle." Hill groaned, "Still, to be on the safe side, let them add temporary collateral to the contract. If because of their relationship, the guide will get into trouble in the later stage, then we won't have much to lose. ”

"Good!" Qin Lun nodded appreciatively, Hill was very thoughtful, he couldn't find any flaws, "Rand, inform them of the conditions, if they are willing to sign a contract, bring them over." ”

"Lord Gillym, I'm sorry for the delay!" Seeing Rand walking out of the woods with the five apostles, Qin Lun's eyes flashed, and he turned around to apologize to the old dwarf, signaling that everyone could get back on the road.

"Just call me Gillym!" Gillim waved his hand unhesitantly, in keeping with the usual boldness of the shield dwarves, but for the sake of caution, he asked more, "Who are they?" ”

"They are mercenaries, and King Tynequelas sent them to find me after I met with an accident at Baldur's Gate." Qin Lun's expression did not change at all, and the lie came as soon as he opened his mouth, "However, their luck is not good, they always miss my whereabouts, and they didn't rush to the vicinity of Silver Moon City until yesterday." ”

Qin Lun's words were conclusive, except for Mastasya, who glanced at him vaguely, almost even Illistin and Idria believed it, thinking that those five people were really sent by the Anker Elf King.

The old dwarf did not doubt Qin Lun's words, and the high-ranking members of the elven clans rarely traveled outside alone. This kind of behavior is too dangerous for the elves who are more delicate than the flowers, and the elven slave trade has not been cut off since ancient times.

When dealing with external affairs and commerce, the major elven courts on the continent often hire some familiar mercenary groups, which is already a norm.

Although Erasdra had told the old dwarf that the elven prince was shrewd and cunning, and that he should always be careful when dealing with him, after all, Qin Lun's camp belonged to the orderly and kind, so there was no need to worry about him colluding with evil organizations like the Santarin Society.

Of course, creatures like apostles have no camp or position to speak of in many cases, and this is not something that dwarven powerhouses can speculate.

While explaining to Gillymu, Qin Lun cautiously looked at the five apostles and opened the team channel to them. Although Rand had already signed a cooperation contract with the other party, the temptation was necessary, and the previous meeting was a bit hasty.

The five apostles were four men and one woman, the leader of whom was a young man with narrow eyebrows and phoenix eyes and a slightly gloomy face. The strong man on his left hand was clearly an MT, nearly seven feet tall, with a tiger's back and a strong look.

On his right hand stood a black-robed mage, the most impressive thing about the mage was his eyes, their dead-gray pupils unfocused, looking like two glass beads that had lost their luster.

There were two men and women, the man was emaciated, always walking with his back hunched and his hands above his knees, like a monkey. The woman's face was covered with a veil, her face could not be seen clearly, she was wearing a suit of leather armor, and she could not see the specific combat occupation.

As soon as the two sides met, Qin Lun and Hill were surprised to find that the strength of this apostle team was very good, at least much stronger than the three of them. Judging from the mutual inductions between the apostles, there is no doubt that the young man at the head is a high-level apostle, and the aura of the remaining few people is also very strong, at least they are all old second-order powerhouses.

"You're the head of this team?" At the same time, Wei Si was also observing Qin Lun and the others, and most of their attention was given to Qin Lun, after all, the plot identity of the silver-haired elf was the top priority.

This is the main reason why they let go of their grudges, and give up part of the mission income, and they have to join Qin Lun's team.

"No, the three of us are a temporary combination, this time we entered the world of Torel and used the world token, and the team we belong to is the loss of the devil's horn, so it's nice to meet a few." Qin Lun's eyes flashed and he said in the team channel.

"A token of the world!" Wei Si showed a hint of understanding in his eyes, and said with a smile, "We are the core branch of the 'Scarlet Castle' in Gray City, in addition to the plot of Silvermoon City, you should have other plot tasks on you, right?" ”

"Not yet, but the dwarven envoy is on their way to their field camp at the foot of the Ridge of the World. Once there, there's a good chance you'll receive an epic plot about the 'Silver Hall', or its precursors. ”

Qin Lun did not conceal this information, and said frankly, "Of course, if you want to share this task, you must pay some reward. ”

Hearing the words "Secret Silver Hall", Weiss's eyes lit up, and he felt that his previous decision was correct. Since the other party has a pivotal plot identity, the mission plot that he can access is really much stronger than them.

"Of course, if you don't mind, after you receive the task, the collateral on the cooperation contract will be our reward!" Weiss replied without hesitation, and displayed the collateral that had been agreed upon with Rand on the team channel.

"Soul fire?!" Seeing the dark green flame displayed on the team channel, as well as the text introduction it gave, Qin Lun and Hill raised their eyebrows at the same time, this is the bloodline item dropped by that necromancer!

"Are you still satisfied?" Weiss asked with a smile.

"Yes, that's a big deal!" Qin Lun was a little surprised, this soul fire was of very high quality, and it belonged to a high-level bloodline item.

Although the undead bloodline of Soul Fire belongs to the big road, high-level ones are rare, and seriously, they are no worse than the Ice Flame Demon bloodline he got at the beginning. Of course, if it is compared to Ciel's rare spirit sucking bloodline, it is much inferior.

"We don't need it, but we sell it at the Apostle Club, and I believe it can be sold for a good price." Hill smiled kindly.

"That's good!" Weiss's eyes flashed, and he put away the bloodline items, and the two sides looked at each other tacitly and smiled. Everyone tested each other, and the original cooperation contract was truly established at this moment.

The necromancer's bloodline items dispelled Qin Lun and the others' doubts, believing that the other party did not have ulterior motives. The Weiss team confirmed that Qin Lun and the three of them were qualified to cooperate with them through the information about the world tokens, the plot of the Secret Silver Hall, and the Apostle Club deliberately leaked by Qin Lun.

This point is very important for the next cooperation between the two apostle teams, any strict contract is just a premise, and the Weiss team deliberately waited here for Qin Lun and the others to pass by, with the intention of not just seeking cooperation.

If Qin Lun and the others did not have the corresponding strength, even if they signed a contract, they would have a lot of black means to circumvent the contract. For example, deliberately release water during certain key battles, let the story monsters "destroy the opponent" for them, and then get all the mission benefits.

Now after the temptation, Qin Lun showed that his plot identity is indeed very capable, not only can he get in touch with the epic plot, but he also has powerful plot characters around him to help. Weiss and others also vaguely said that they had broken away from the Santalin Society, and the plot forces were temporarily blank, so that the two sides would close the gap in strength and could cooperate on an equal footing.

After Weiss and the others joined the team, there were no more waves along the way, and two days later, at dusk, they finally arrived at a hidden valley located at the southern foot of the World Ridge, and entered the outpost camp set up by the shield dwarves. I1292
