Book IV, 68: The Devil's Plan and the Yellow Sparrow Follows
In Di Bar, the two people, who didn't know that the content of their conversation had fallen into the eyes of others, were still exchanging information unconsciously. Scarlett followed up on the previous question with a wry smile: "Actually, the second question you asked is also related to this."
"Uh, wait a minute, how do I have an ominous premonition!"
Chen Xi interrupted Scarlett's speech and asked thoughtfully, "Wouldn't you mean to tell me that the matter of luring a large number of idle witchers to gather in Field Land was also your handiwork?" ”
"I hate to admit it, but it's exactly what you think."
Scarlett said, the bitterness and helplessness on her face deepened further: "A lot of the news in this has been spread by the heads of our contact points in various regions, the purpose of which is to use a large number of people to find out what is going on here, and by the way, let the Staple region rejoin the control of the witchers. ”
Scarlett sighed and said, "You probably don't know, due to the existence of those things arranged below, the Staple region has always been a barren area that witchers rarely touch, no way, as the key basis for us to make a fortune, the aliens here are too rare." Like the commission you completed this time, it is the biggest business since we took over here, and there was no profit at all before, and we barely managed to maintain the expenses of this contact point by running the outside Di bar. ”
Chen Xi suddenly said: "No wonder you are so black, a set of materials about aliens that can be directly printed in countless copies will be sold for 500,000 yuan." ”
When Scarlett heard this, her face was a little angry: "How can you say that it is all necessary for survival." After all, no one is easy, without us to maintain the existence of this contact point, what about the other demon hunters who have come over, especially those who are new to the industry, without our help, most of them will not survive the first encounter with a strange battle, even the lowest level, like in ancient times, when a unified contact point was not established, before becoming an experienced demon hunter, their death rate was at most more than two-thirds. ”
Chen Xi realized that he really shouldn't have said this in front of a woman: "Okay. I was wrong. Beautiful lady, let's talk about the point! ”
"If it weren't for the money, I would have thrown you out of the bank."
After Scarlett gave Chen Xi a fierce look, she turned the topic back: "We originally thought that those aliens were the same conspiracy this time. I was going to look for an opportunity to hold an advent ceremony. And then they start the proliferative diffusion that they do best."
"It's something they do every time they come to earth. Trying to increase their numbers to the point where they can't handle a war with the strength of ordinary witchers in the shortest possible time and before they are discovered by us, but. Even we didn't expect them to endure so long and act so carefully this time, and we found almost nothing but that they were gathered within the confines of Fieldland. ”
Scarlett said this, her tone became serious and cautious: "This just represents a bad fact, due to the extremely chaotic environment in hell, there is not much reason and wisdom in the consciousness of all low-level aliens, so as soon as they appear in the human world, they will only obey the control of instinctive desires, and quickly invade the human body by not adapting to the human environment, and then start killing as soon as the mutation is completed to satisfy their bloodthirsty desires." ”
"If it's okay if these guys just appear in Fieldland, it doesn't matter how many of them are, the chaos of nature makes it impossible for them to carry out a unified action in an organized manner, even if there are some middle-level aliens mixed in, such as bloodlines, beasts, monsters, etc., they can only use their autonomy to barely reach the level of human beings to speed up the progress of the advent ceremony, and it can't stop the trend of low-level aliens being exposed, but because of the anomalies I mentioned earlier, It means that there are different high-level beings in Fieldland."
Scarlett paused for a moment before she uttered the name that many witchers didn't even dare to mention: "They're devils!" These aliens with their real names are the true rulers of hell! Only they can make those low-level outliers completely obedient, and they can carry out all kinds of schemes in Field Land without a trace. ”
"And in history, behind every devil's coming, there will be a disaster."
When Chen Xi heard this, he finally understood what was wrong with Gu Bernard comforting them in the underground prison: "Saying that you won't meet difficult objects in the passage, it is decisive to let us who don't know the truth stupidly do the rhythm of cannon fodder!" ”
At the same time, in addition to Chen Xi, Benist and the others, who were in another place, also sounded a system prompt in their minds.
[Note: You take the initiative to explore some of the implicit information about the main quest - the devil's plan, discover the advanced creatures of the enemy camp that you need to face in advance, and if the difficulty base of the quest remains unchanged temporarily, you will get the reward of the main quest information exploration, 500 evolution points].
[Hint: You can take the relevant information for some degree of profit, in which the reward for the Evolver who learns the important information firsthand remains the same, getting 500 points, and the rest of the Evolver can only get 100 points].
At this time, seeing Chen Xi's sudden change of color, Scarlett mistakenly thought that he was afraid, and couldn't help sneering: "Hehe, it seems that your boss didn't tell you this, but this is also the norm What is the norm Most witchers don't like to join the ZF department in order to pursue a more stable and comfortable life, which is caused by this, there are too many irrelevant factors and concerns, not so much to live by others, it is better to only believe in the weapon in your hand, It's the partner we can really trust. ”
Scarlett didn't forget her current responsibilities when she spoke, and took the opportunity to mock her. Chen Xi said with relief: "But you don't have to worry too much, I believe that you have already seen each other, with the cooperation of hundreds of demon hunters, even if the devil personally acts, don't be afraid, all you have to do is pay attention, don't let you be in the first batch of people who bump into the devil, then no one can save you." ”
As for the third question, Benister in the distance motioned for Haukeil not to repeat it.
He didn't know the actual income level of the witchers, but it didn't matter what kind of currency it was. As long as the unit is calculated in billions. What can be bought back is not a simple concept. What's more, after getting the memories instilled by the system, they know very well how much purchasing power Ranke has. 800 million, enough for dozens of witchers with not weak strength to work hard for this money.
Benist sighed at this: "This guy is getting harder and harder to approach. Now the three obvious advantages of money, manpower, and power have been gathered. And it's more than everybody. If we also rashly reveal our identities, and he is afraid of it, then. It was a disaster for the task we were going to do, and he could easily undo our efforts. ”
"Beni, don't say it so complicated, although I understand every word you say, but when combined, I am a little confused, as if we have to go against him, I just want to know now, is he an evolutionary like us?" Black Gibby is still more entangled in this problem.
"I wish he was a witcher, which also means that he used more time and experience than us to gain such a big advantage in advance, but if he is an evolutionary like us, oh my God, I can't imagine that under the same starting line, he can unify so many resources and information in less than a day!"
De Huaye's words suddenly came out full of exclamation: "I don't have to think that as time goes by, the gap in strength between us will only get bigger and bigger, using this money to win people's hearts, he can almost control most of the [Chengguan troops], plus those people recruited outside"
It was rare for Dewarya not to use his psychic ability to say these two passages in his consciousness, which was enough to prove the degree of shock in his heart at this time. You know, when they sensed Jeffrey's intrusion through Haukie before, they still wondered if they would go over to help, but now, they didn't have that idea at all.
"Or we seem to have offended someone who has already offended him, right?"
Dewarye asked hesitantly, he was still accustomed to listening to Benist in such a direction that required a choice. Just like before, Benist insisted on monitoring outside, so that they could get a reward of 500 evolution points per person without having to do anything.
"No insurance, no security!"
Benist thought for a moment, then shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter whether he is an evolver or not, our main limitation at present is that we don't dare to easily make friends with people, we don't know a lot of joints, for example, we don't know the information about the gathering point of the witchers here, if it weren't for the Jeffrey Seven to explore the way, it is likely that we would still be at a loss now." ”
"Similarly, on the premise of not knowing the identity and strength of that person, we will only become candidates for cannon fodder to a large extent if we take refuge in the past. Because even this Chen Fala has to recruit enough people to protect himself, and in the past, we didn't have much autonomy at all. ”
"Besides, compared to taking refuge in that unknown figure and getting the support of I don't know how much support Lu Dao has, as we have obtained the identity of the [Chengguan Force], we already have the help of ZF, and we happen to know such important information, so why bother to seek the near and far and rely on this possibility that I don't know if it is good or bad."
Benist explained in detail to his teammates that Hauke's detection methods are not a panacea.
This skill of [Kantley's Eye] can only be obtained in the area of biological activity, just to prevent accidents, and it is discovered by people who have not weak strength like them, they do not dare to let Hauki drive [Kantley's Eye] to possess the people inside that door, and only dare to use it on the dance floor where there are many ordinary people. So, they don't know much about what's going on inside.
But that's enough.
Benist already had a complete idea of how to carry out this task.
"Actually, you've all overlooked one direction, and we have a better character to choose from than the ones who have other intentions and are not fundamentally messed with, and the one who doesn't know the details." Seeing everyone's puzzled eyes, Benist explained, "This candidate is far away in front of us, and it is Chen Fala who we are monitoring now. ”
"There are three advantages, the first is that through probing, he does not surpass us in terms of strength, even if we find out about our small moves, it will take time to arrange revenge, and we are easy to escape. Second, the scope of the activity is in a place that we can easily access, which is convenient for surveillance, and with him as a relying point, we can learn first-hand information about the movement of the [urban management force] to the greatest extent. ”
"Thirdly, and most importantly, he found that the ability of task clues is very powerful, as long as we follow him, we can naturally save a lot of time and energy spent on mission exploration, and then use these to do something else, and it will not hinder the benefits we should get in the mission."
At this, Benist chuckled softly, his stereotypical face with a fox-like cunning.
"Well, just like this time, you don't have to do anything to get 500 evolution points!" (To be continued......)
