Chapter 81: Seven Killing Stones (2)

At 11:30 p.m., in the office on the second floor of the office, Lauren Thomson, a young man, stood by the window and enjoyed the scenery on the street. The town, which used to be so boring, has become cute after entering its third year.

Is this because it's really cute? Or is it simply because I have a business here called "Hatsuba Morning News"?

Thinking about passing the time, Lauren lifted the sandwich she was holding in her right hand and took a bite.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then a blond young man pushed the door in. Noticing the movement, Lauren turned around.

Seeing him eating a sandwich, the young man couldn't help but be surprised.

"President, don't you have a dinner in a while?"

"Winscher, I really admire you right now. ”

"Huh?" Confused, the young man known as Winscher walked quickly to his desk.

"What you say means is that you genuinely think I could have a full meal later, right? Lauren further explained.

"Isn't that so?"

"That's why you're the editor-in-chief and I'm the president. ”

"Do you always feel that I am despised by you?"

"Compared to this ......," Lauren's gaze fell on a stack of papers in Winscher's right hand, "the layout of the manuscript has come out, isn't it." ”

"Yes, here. ”

With that, Winscher handed over the formatted manuscript paper. After a cursory glance, Lauren returned to her hand and placed it on her desk.

"No problem, just follow this seal. By the way, there's nothing wrong with that weird press, is it?"

"There's nothing wrong with that, except for the loss of a little bit of durability every time you work. In addition, the durability value of the machine is more than 20,000 yuan, so there is no need to worry about repairs in a short time. ”

"In that case, if you ask Soma to go to the Lonsminster workshop and order about two more units, it's time to put the plan to expand sales on the agenda. ”

"It's finally time to act!" Winscher exclaimed with excitement.

"Don't get too happy, to really get bigger, we need to have an opportunity. ”

"Opportunity?"

"That's right! To put it bluntly, it's a big event with a big impact that everyone wants to know! It's with this expectation that I'm going to plunge headlong into the monster pile. ”

"Monsters?"

"Those guys are monsters. Well, I wish me all the best. Lauren shoved the sandwich into her stomach in two bites as she stepped forward.

In this way, he left his office and went to the most luxurious restaurant in the city of early leaves, Linglang Pavilion. Waiting for him in the deepest private room were the monsters he spoke ofβ€”the leaders of the four guilds and their lieutenants.

The most powerful guilds in Mysteryworld are, of course, the Battle Guilds, and the "Four Guilds" are the general names of the four most prestigious and powerful Guilds in the Battle Guilds.

They are: "Heroes of the Obelisk", "Oberiske" by Richard Alphons; Legionnaire", Duke Edlaide's "Camelot"; The Empress", Fu Qingshu's "Pandora"; Tyrannosaurus Rex", "Rex" by Edman Schuzer.

And these four most powerful people in the whole player are waiting for them behind the door in front of them at this time.

At this thought, Lauren Thomson couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He took a deep breath before twisting the handle to open the door. Immediately, a serious atmosphere came to the face.

At a large round table, Fu Qingshu sat at ten o'clock, and behind him stood the number two person of "Pandora", the young man, Zhang Ji; at eleven o'clock sat Duke, and behind him was the adjutant Xiang Jing Binghua; at one o'clock, Richard, and behind him stood his own brother Williams; and at two o'clock sat Eedman, with a respectful "think tank" behind him, Cole Dietrie.

Finally, at six o'clock there was an empty chair, apparently reserved for Lauren Thomson. The atmosphere of this interview meeting really made him a little uncomfortable, but he still sat down in his seat without saying anything. And the other party all looked serious, and he became serious.

After seeing Lauren seated, the four guildmasters looked at each other, and finally Richard spoke: "Good afternoon, President Lauren Thomson." ”

"Thank you for your invitation. Lauren nodded and then said, "Excuse me, what is the important thing that the four of you want to meet with me to discuss?"

It's better to have some big news.

He added a sentence in his heart. It seems that the facts did not disappoint him.

"Has Mr. Thomson heard a very serious rumor lately?"

Hearing Richard's words, Lauren not only had an expression, but also a really serious attitude.

"I'm talking about the murder in the city three days ago. That's nonsense, though. ”

"If you really think so, please take a look at this. With that, Richard swiped his finger in front of him a few times and sent an email to Lauren.

The content of the email was a short video recorded with the camera function: a man fell to the ground on the street at night, looking terrified. Then, just as the man wanted to ask the photographer for help, another unidentified person appeared in the alley behind him and smashed it into light chips with a crystal beam, and the props that the man had brought with him were scattered all over the ground.

This is the "real image of the murder in the city".

Seeing this, Lauren felt extremely frightened, and then her expression became solemn.

Killing people is, of course, a terrible thing, but what is even more terrifying is doing something that would otherwise be impossible to do under the protection of the city, that is, the system. Being in the same place with someone who has the privilege of killing, and the other party can hurt themselves at will, and they can't fight back, just imagining it is enough to make people feel creepy.

"It seems that Mr. Thomson has also noticed the seriousness of the matter. "In fact, there have been signs of panic in the city in the past three days. ”

"I also have a little bit of a feeling that the eyes of people on the street are a little subtle. ”

"Our four guilds are deeply concerned about this. ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Lauren immediately realized.

"Do you want to interfere in this?"

"That's what we think. But in fact, if you really shoot directly, it is quite inconvenient. You should be clear about the reason. ”

"'The Dragon Emperor's Soul'. Lauren nodded.

This is an out-of-specification super-team-level large-scale dungeon event that occurred in the newly opened Central Desert Area of the Northern Third Region about half a month ago.

Under the influence of a certain anomaly, the bones of the Dragon Emperor in the underground ancient dragon tomb turned into the ghost dragon emperor and awakened, and used its power to resurrect all the dead ancient dragons. The player's mission is to wipe out the Dragon Emperor and his army in the Dragon's Tomb before they cause actual disaster.

The first to complete a series of pre-tasks and discover its existence was Fu Qingshu's guild, a few elite "Pandora". After repeated setbacks, they contacted the less contradictory "Oberiske".

But even if the two sides joined forces, they continued to fail. In the end, by the staff officer of "Oberiske", Lomaria came to a startling conclusion - this is a strategy that can never be completed by less than 100 people.

Therefore, in the end, the whole army of the four guilds was mobilized, and the battle lasted for three days with a large force of nearly 400 people before the final attack was successful.

The four guilds also received extremely rich rewards from this incident. In particular, a series of super-powerful equipment represented by the four artifacts made them widen the gap with other powerful guilds that had been chasing closely behind.

On this basis, the "Dragon Emperor's Soul Return" is still a one-time event, which means that other guilds cannot recover the gap through re-raiding. Therefore, this incident can be said to be the final battle of the four major guilds.

However, too much majesty and too much power has led to a barrage of gossip. Rumors of the four guilds wanting to join forces to rule all players are rife.

If you don't act carefully in this situation, especially when it comes to events like "Murder in the City", which has an important impact on all players, you will be seen as a ruler and end up in the position of being the ruler.

Even if the four guilds join forces, they can't be the enemy of all players. Take 10,000 steps back, even if they win, they won't have the slightest benefit.

Therefore, they are afraid of this situation and try to avoid it as much as possible, as evidenced by the recent low-key actions.

Despite this, in the face of such a major event as the "murder incident in the city", I still can't help but take care of it.

That being the case, then the best way is to hide yourself behind the scenes and find an agent.

After figuring out the middle joint, Lauren Thomson hooked the corners of his mouth.

"I see, you are making our newspaper your agent. ”

"Exactly. We didn't come up with the idea without thinking about anything. First of all, Mr. Thomson is capable. Secondly, it is normal for newspapers to be interested in this matter. In the end, finding out about this matter can make the status of the 'Chuye Morning News' soar in one breath, after all, life is at stake. That is to say......"

"In other words, I should have gone to investigate the truth in the first place. ”

"That's right. Don't you think it's a good cooperation, Mr. Thomson, you just have to carry out our plan and you can sit back and enjoy all the information. ”

"You secretly entrusted me as an agent, and I ostensibly asked for your assistance, which is probably your plan. There is indeed value in cooperation. It's just that there's another question, the other party is a vicious murderer, do you think I or my newspaper people can handle it?"

"Don't worry about that. At this point, Duke spoke, "Lord Richard said, you just need to carry out our plan. In other words, we have a solution that can help you solve this problem. ”

"Oh, then I'm going to have to listen to you. ”

"It's simple. You as our agent, just find another agent. We have all discussed the candidates, and he is a character with one of the best wisdom among all players, and the strongest force, and his sense of responsibility is not low. Such a person should be able to resolve this incident easily. At least there is value as a thug. What do you say, Lord Richard? ”

Richard didn't speak, just gasped heavily. There seems to be some reluctance to talk about it.

Why, exactly, Lauren is not interested, he is more interested in who Duke is talking about?

"Who is that person?"

"It's also a well-known person, and his name is 'Li Mengxi'. ”
