Chapter 163: Selling the Future to the Devil (Alliance Leader Plus 4)

Klein: "."

Again? I'm going to die again?

Is there an end?

He broke off his spiritual touch with the devil and pondered all that had happened during his time in Beckland.

The biggest crisis comes from the ambassador of Intis, but he has already used covert means to make the other party die in assassination, and the means sent by the other party, the secret puppet master of Sequence 5, also died in the whispers of Miss Resentful and the true creator.

What else?

What are the hidden dangers of the city of Tingen? The seal numbered 0-08?

However, he is now a new identity, and those hidden dangers should be cut off with the previous death.

Klein never suspected that the devil was lying, and he was convinced that there was no point in forcing himself by lying to people of that level.

"It's okay, it's just a prophecy of my own death, not including the people around me, and I don't have anyone around me."

Crane smiled sadly and wryly, sat down on the high-backed stool, and showed a piece of paper, and a line of words.

"The source of the danger I face."

After reciting it in his mind seven times, he closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair.

This is a dream divination, which allows the soothsayer to see some images.

But the picture did not appear, Klein just heard a voice, a middle-aged man, with some arrogance in his tone.

"The person I'm going to kill is a detective whose name isβ€”"

"Sherlock Moriarty."

The voice stopped abruptly, and Crane snapped his eyes open.

There is so little information that can be used for divination, and spiritual divination can only obtain this kind of sound.

"The other party came under my pseudonym, which means that it is indeed not a hidden danger caused by the incident in the city of Tingen."

He pondered the contents of the words he had heard in the dream divination: "So, I'm going to be assassinated?" ”

"Who did I provoke?"

He tried again to tell the source of the sound, but failed.

"I still have the protection of Miss Wraith, she is a Sequence 5 transcendent, and even so, the foreshadowing of danger is so strong that the devil even threatens me to die."

"Could it be that the person who came to assassinate me was a demigod?"

Klein felt a chill down his spine, and was silent for a moment to calm himself down, before continuing to analyze: "It's unlikely, the existence of a demigod wouldn't have come to assassinate me, it should be a very powerful sequence 5, such as a shepherd like Mr. A." ”

"Miss Wraith is not good at protection, which can also be seen in the previous battle with the Master of Secret Puppets."

"In other words, with what I have so far, I'm afraid it will be difficult to face this unknown assassination."

Crane stood up and walked over to the crimson star that belonged to the devil.

"Do you want to make a deal with the devil in exchange for His protection?"

"No, the devil must make very excessive demands, as I have proven before, and although he claims to be fair, the price is always made by himself, and often not money I may not be able to meet his demands."

"In exchange for some information to improve your odds of survival. Then try to find a way, but no, ask Mr. Azik for help, I don't know if he is in Beckland now, and I haven't told him about my resurrection. ”

He gritted his teeth, and his spirit touched the crimson star.

Darkness filled the air, followed by the devil's malicious laughter: "Long time no see, Mr. Fool. ”

"I want to know about your prophecy, and at what cost?" Crane was not in the mood to greet the devil and asked straight to the point.

"How's your fifth?" The devil's voice came to Klein's ears: "Don't worry, I won't take it for the time being, just keep the account." ”

"I will not trade my soul, nor will I trade my body and abilities." "It's not fair to me, you know, death isn't a price I can't afford," Klein muttered. ”

"The prices I offer are all fair." The devil chuckled and said, "So, what are you willing to give?" Or, Mr. Fool, is there anything else you can look up to me besides what you just said? ”

Klein: "."

Feel the pressure of poverty.

"I still have knowledge." Klein said, "I can trade you for quite a few potion recipes, including recipes and rituals for the main ingredients of Sequence 4. ”

"Even. Hey. The devil picked out a word, and it was followed by a mocking laugh.

Crane couldn't help but clench his fists.

Indeed, for an existence of the level of the devil, the potion formula of Sequence 4 was not high-end at all.

"Your knowledge is priced, Mr. Fool." The devil said, "I can trade with you at any time if you want to sell, but that doesn't get me information and help." ”

And so it was.

The devil doesn't care about that knowledge at all, and if he asks for it, the price he pays must be the part of the soul or body that the devil is interested in.

Klein suddenly remembered the information mentioned by Miss Justice before, the person named Mr. Red, who was suspected of being able to make a deal with the devil, made a deal with the devil in a certain crisis to let the devil's relatives make a move, although it was only a short three seconds, but how could an ordinary person pay such a bargaining chip?

And, according to Audrey, Mr. Red showed no signs of losing his life, or soul.

So Klein spoke, "What if I, like Mr. Red, ask for the help of your dependents?" What price should I pay? ”

Klein did not hide the news that he knew about Mr. Red's existence, after all, everything he did was under the watchful eye of the devil, including the words of Miss Justice above the Tarot Society.

"You want to know what he's giving for, right?" The devil said happily, "I can't tell you, it's a customer's secret, and the only thing I can tell you is that it's expensive." ”

"You are not willing to sell your soul or your body, so are you willing to sell your future?"

"Future?" Klein was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?" ”

"I can be flexible in my way of trading, Mr. Fool." There was demagogy in the devil's tone: "Of course, just for you, based on what I want from you, I am willing to give you some privileges. ”

"Flexible." Klein was silent for a moment: "What exactly do you want?" ”

"Magician's potion material, Mr. Fool." The devil spoke in a slow tone.

"I don't have it." Klein said calmly, "I just got the magician's potion recipe tonight. ”

"You will." The Devil said, "To be precise, you will entrust the Hanged Man to obtain all the spinal fluid of the Evil Striped Panther, and the Sun to obtain the true rhizome of the Misty Tree Man, and then on October 10th, you will obtain all the materials for the Magician's Potion." ”

Klein had a chill down his spine, not only because the other party had detailed the time and behavior of his future picture, but also because he finally understood what the devil was saying.

Trade the future.

The magician's potion doesn't mean anything to the devil, but it means a lot to himself, because the materials for Sequence 7 are quite rare and not so easy to collect.

If the magician's potions are traded to the devil, there is a high chance that his promotion will be greatly delayed.

Is this what the devil is for? Slowing down your growth? But isn't his purpose to attack the gray fog when he grows up enough to control it?

No, maybe the devil isn't ready either.

The corners of Klein's mouth hooked slightly: "Mr. Devil, are you afraid that my growth rate is too fast?" ”

"I've never hidden my attitude, have I?" The Devil was unexpectedly frank: "Mr. Fool, the day will come when I capture the Grey Mist, and until then, I don't mind making the story a little more twisty. ”

"I think this will be a fair price that you and I can accept."

"What can I get in exchange?" Klein asked directly.

"Ten seconds." The devil said, "I think if you don't waste it, this time is enough." ”

Crane fell into deep thought.

According to the current information, the Devil's Dependents are a giant dragon, a giant dragon that can kill the demons of Sequence 6 in an instant, that is, the other party's level is very likely to be above the demigods.

The potion materials of Sequence 7 can be exchanged for the demigods' shots, which can definitely be regarded as a sure profit, and those materials can get one copy by themselves, and they can get the second one, but it will take more time.

No matter how you look at it, this deal is good.

But

Klein reminded himself in his heart that he must not follow the devil's train of thought, and that there are sinister traps hidden in those bright and attractive fruits.

"Since my future can be a bargaining chip, that means I can propose this trade to you at any time, right?" Crane spoke.

"Only until you become a magician." The devil said: "Moreover, the value of the future is not static, I must remind you that the price I want is the future, not a bottle of potions." ”

"Very understandable." Klein nodded, "So, let's talk about the other deals." ”

"I want to sell some potion recipes."

The devil said slowly, "It seems that you want to keep the price tag about your future. ”

"I must warn you that death is looming."

"If it gets to that point, I'll be able to reach you at any time, won't I?" "Now, I think I might be able to struggle a little bit on my own," Klein said. ”

He raised his head slightly, his black pupils staring straight into the darkness in front of him.

The devil in the dark must have hidden a lot of malice in the transaction, trying to manipulate and use himself, but from another point of view, why can't he take advantage of the other party?

The essence of that malicious transaction, if you think about it from another angle, isn't it an opportunity to summon a demigod to make a move at a critical time?

"This time, the few potion recipes I want to sell will be the Witch of Pleasure, the Priest of Light, the Magician, the Mind Reader, and the Faceling."

"Make an offer, Mr. Devil."

Monthly pass 1173/100, alliance leader 1, plus 8/26.

I know the update time is a bit underworld, and I'm still trying to adjust my biological clock.
