Chapter 48: The Way of Hunger Marketing

"Okay, but I want to ask, are you interested in coming to my Chamber of Commerce as a training instructor?"

After receiving a negative answer, the Demon had no choice but to hand the ruben to Quest, and then carefully counted the small bag of soul prisms he had paid for, and after confirming that it was correct, he carefully received it into the pocket on the inside of his burqa.

As if trying to get back into the field, the Yugros demon settled down and used the two spells of "Fox Cunning" and "Owl Insight" on himself, temporarily improving his intelligence and perception, and then the jackal-like face showed a confident smile that could scare crying children.

"Eloquent boy, the following information deal about the bloody war is a bit complicated. First of all—"

The Judge reached out and found a little glowing sand from the many pockets inside the robe, tossed it into the air, and chanted a small spell, the only spell that Quest had seen the demon need materials and chant to cast.

"It seems to be some kind of advanced anti-detection magic. Quest made a basic judgment about it, and at the same time secretly prepared for a possible surprise attack.

Sensing the guardiness of the young man in front of him, the Jugros Judge explained after completing the spell chant, "Rest assured that there will be no flames or ice interfering with our trades. It's just a small preparation, and I will prepare the corresponding anti-detection means before each intelligence transaction. ”

"Be prepared. Not knowing whether he was explaining his actions or complimenting the prudence of the Yugros Demon, Quest replied with only that.

"That's right, be prepared, a great habit," he said, brushing his few mustaches, as if confident in the effectiveness of the anti-detection spell he had cast, the Judge no longer spoke softly as before, and echoed Quest's words in purgatory in a voice that was somewhere between a dog barking and a wolf howling.

"Boy, I'll admit that you're a connoisseur at buying and selling, but I'm well prepared for the next deal. ”

Clapping his hands, the invisible servant handed over an hourglass the size of a wine bottle for a halfling.

"From now on, every word I say is valuable information about the bloody war, and the storage makes you feel that it is worth the money. It's just—"

With a snap of his fingers, the hourglass floated in front of Quith as the sand began to fall above it.

"There is no price to speak of in this transaction.

Now, every time the sand in the hourglass falls, you need to pay three soul prisms,

As for whether you are willing to pay the bill. Boy, you can always pick up the timing hourglass, and I won't stop you. ”

Sure enough, the guys who can do business in the lower world also have some skills, and they actually know the tricks of "hunger marketing" and "time-sharing payment".

Quest tossed the three soul prisms into the Judge's outstretched hand, agreeing to his trading rules.

The Merchant of the Eugros Demon reversed the reward he received, showed a satisfied expression, and said slowly:

"The interest in information on the bloody battle shows that Your Excellency is not just an ordinary soldier pulled from the physical plane by the devils.

According to the information that our Chamber of Commerce has obtained from the high-ranking partners of the Batzu clan, the acting commander of the camp has been killed in an encounter before, and it must be you who will replace him as the actual ruler of this camp.

This time is different from the past, not the current lord of Aphnanas, His Excellency Bair, but the noble god of evil dragons, His Highness Tiamat, the five-headed dragon god, as the commander-in-chief to lead the entire bloody battle.

This is rare, and even throughout the history of bloody wars, there are not many times when great true gods have been involved.

In addition to the question of the commander, there is also an unusual place, that is, the location of this war is not the gray field where major battles often break out, and the two sides of the war are not fighting for control of the Abyss Plains and Aphneras - this may not match the information that other devils have revealed to you, the Abyss and Barto are more often evenly matched,

There are some signs of this war, which have been infiltrated several times before.

Aphneras and a certain level of the Abyss in the Nine Hells of Bato are artificially propelled - more likely by the Demon Prince or the Devil Lord, overlapping in some areas, with armies of the Devil and Demon fighting each other, and the victorious side will receive an additional reward in addition to the Bloody Faction Bonus - occupied territory.

This kind of battle, generally speaking, is indeed the devil has the advantage, at least the few infiltration operations that have occurred in the past have ended with the final victory of the devil, so they were captured by Aphernas at several levels in the abyss, pulled out of the chaotic camp, and gradually assimilated by hell, and the new land of hell ......"

At this point, the Judge stopped talking, and the hourglass had already fallen. According to the agreement, Quest handed the demon three more soul prisms before he continued:

"This kind of dimensional infiltration will bring huge benefits to the devil's side almost every time, and the devil rarely takes the initiative to use this method of warfare. The reason for this is the huge upfront investment that is proportional to the income.

According to the statistics of the upper echelons of Batezus, in order to push Aphnanas to completely overlap with an abyssal plane, it takes medium divine power to construct the full power of a complete incarnation - this avatar is almost equal to a god with weak divine power, and even if it is partially overlapped, it requires at least one weak god to consume a complete incarnation.

With the strength of His Royal Highness Tiamat, the god of evil dragons, it would naturally take a lot to achieve this. Know that this is only the input required for pre-war preparations.

And to achieve complete victory, according to past experience, it is necessary to use the army to fight for at least more than 200 years. During this period, they may also be attacked by other demon lords and even demon princes, and even with the support of the Batzu demons, the five dragon queens in this war will need to take huge risks.

Unless she has a reason to do it-"

The Judge stopped his narrative once more, and smiled as if he had succeeded in his plan, and Quest, eager to know the secrets, could only pay as promised.

"Boy, or Your Excellency the Commander, you have made a wise choice.

The most lasting impact one can expect to have in a bloody war is to be a small footnote in the annals of this war, but unfortunately only a handful of mortals have had such an honor for eons of eons - and of course the wise gods are no longer among them.

Do you know why most mortals are just cannon fodder in bloody battles?

Almost all of the people who participated in the bloody battle believed that their own strength was too weak and the scale of the war was too grand.

But that's only part of the reason.

Among the two warring sides of this war, there is a different opinion among the group of Yugros merchants who have carefully traveled through the ages—mortals are mostly short-sighted, and they participate in bloody battles in the hope of gaining strength, and they tend to become so addicted to the battle that they give up thinking.

When the wielding of a sword and the preparation of spells take up all of the brain, there is no room left for thinking about the real motives of this war, which is when a creature is about to come to an end in this war.

But it seems that you are an alternative with a smart brain.

In order to congratulate you on your wisdom and to congratulate me on finding a partner who can trade for a long time, the above words are not charged to you as a discount. ”

This time, the recorder fiddled with the halfway hourglass and made it start counting again.
