Gold is Justice

Big Cannon chuckled, the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously, and said: "Generally, I am willing to sell my guild. After all, no one can be an adventurer for a lifetime. As he grows older, his physical strength weakens, and even Even the magic affinity will gradually weaken. At that time, doing this kind of thing is undoubtedly equivalent to waiting for death. But..."
"Hehe, I don't want to sell it at such a cheap price. And if possible, I hope that all my guild members can be assigned to a team with me. If possible, even let me lead my team directly. The members of the guild will directly form a small team. If the empire agrees to such a condition, I don’t want to insist too much on the price.”
After all, it is a kind of freedom.
There may be a lot of money for the acquisition, but other than that, these adventurers themselves know that if they are incorporated into the army, it is conceivable that there will be many constraints.And after that, it is equivalent to a soldier receiving death wages. Compared with the guild, the income may not only have no way to increase, but will directly drop.Not to mention some fixed guard missions that were originally entrusted by wealthy families to perform every month, this is equivalent to disappearing all of them!
However, if you can form the same team with your own guild members, then these problems can be easily solved.
Ai Luo nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "It seems that the boss of Big Cannon hasn't made a final decision yet... But what does this have to do with those of us who participated in the guild championship battle?"
Big Cannon sighed, and said with a somewhat helpless attitude: "For us guilds that have become famous, the empire is of course willing to buy us and incorporate us."
"But, what about you newbies? How will you new guilds deal with it? Could it be like our big guilds will buy you all? This is impossible."
Airl thought for a while, and said with some doubts: "So... you mean, the third task of this guild championship battle... is entirely the Empire's hope that us new adventurers and those mountain The thieves started to fight among themselves, then consumed each other in a wave, and finally entered the field to harvest us?!"
Big Cannon's expression suddenly became tense. He quickly put his finger on his lips, hissed softly, and said, "Don't be so loud! Keep your voice down, do you want to die?!"
Arrow quickly lowered his head and stopped talking.
Big Cannon looked around and confirmed that there was no one else, and then continued: "I can't guarantee that someone will come to harvest you in the end, but I think, let you and those bandits consume each other for a while." There should be no problem with Bo. Otherwise, think about it, you have never heard that there are a large number of bandits in that forest and mine area before, and our guilds have never received such a task. But why do you come here? Suddenly there will be so many bandits appear?"
Speaking of which, the Big Cannon patted Airl's back forcefully. This action was a bit too violent, causing Airl's body to jump forward involuntarily.He was slightly frightened, instinctively clutching his chest, turned his head, and glared at the president of the Purgatory Guild.
"President Airl, I owe your guild a favor, so I will return this favor to you now."
However, Big Cannon seemed unaware of Airl's vigilant and nervous eyes, thinking that he was nervous about the bandits, and continued——
"The task of this guild championship battle is absolutely extremely difficult! You have to understand that it is best for your guild to retire directly, and even return to the town you came from as soon as possible after directly retiring! Your The town seems to be very remote, right? I guess it will take a few years until the reform order reaches you, take advantage of these few years to speed up the reform, and then find a way to sell yourself for a good price!"
As he said that, Big Cannon raised his hand again, as if intending to slap Airl on the shoulder again.
Chapter 840
This is really no one's fault, because Airl's stature is too short compared to these tall guild masters, so that their palms can easily pat him on the shoulder.
It's just that... without any hesitation, Airl took a step back nervously, nodded slightly, and said, "Thank you for the reminder, President Big Cannon. Well, although this situation may be very bad, But there are still reasons why I have to go on.”
Seeing that Airl couldn't be persuaded, Big Cannon shook his head slightly.But after a while, a respectful smile reappeared on his face, nodded and said: "President Airl, everyone has his own ambitions, and I can't persuade you. Now that you have decided, then I can only wish you the best of luck." Good luck. Well, speaking of it, I should have thought of this a long time ago. So, I have also prepared some gifts for you."
With that said, Big Cannon turned around, and a member of the Purgatory Guild at the back stepped forward and handed over a box in his hand.
"President Ai Luo, our Purgatory Guild has no other specialties, but we have a little bit of our own advantages in alchemy. This is the basis for our guild to be ranked in the top ten in Hanhai City - Purgatory Potion, please You take it."
Airl took the box and opened it.The four inside exuded a strange red light, and the liquid inside kept churning, and the potion that seemed to be bubbling from lava appeared in front of him.
"As long as you take one medicine, you can quickly improve your own strength, speed and reaction ability in a short period of time. The effective time is 10 minutes. However, after taking the next medicine, you can't take the second medicine within 24 hours. Otherwise, there will be strong adverse reactions. It not only includes diarrhea, headache, chills, fever, paralysis, etc. If it is not done well, it may even face death."
The corner of Airl's mouth twitched, looking at the big cannon in front of him, his face was full of doubts.
Big Cannon seemed to know what Ai Luo wanted to say, quickly waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Don't worry! As long as you don't drink it continuously within 24 hours, there will be no danger to your life, and there will be no side effects! If the purgatory potion is sold, our guild will sell it at the price of 2 gold, 9 silver and 8 copper coins, and the four this time can be regarded as my little care."
After listening to Da Cannon's speech, Airl lowered his head again to look at the four potions in the box in his hand.
There is no introduction to these medicines, and the bottles containing the medicines are also glass vials that can be bought casually in item stores.From this point of view, even if these potions are shown to others, others will not be able to judge whether they are purgatory potions...
Alas, if this is the case, it cannot be resold...
Ai Luo felt a little regret in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face, expressing his gratitude to the president of the Purgatory Guild.After handing the box to Brad next to him, everyone also walked to the intersection of the busy road.Now that the words are finished and the things are given, the Purgatory Guild is also planning to leave.
"By the way, Chairman Big Cannon, there is something I want to ask."
Before Big Cannon left, Airl suddenly asked——
"Excuse me, are you familiar with Death Forest and Death Cave?"
Big Cannon looked back at Airl, thought for a while, and said, "Oh, if you want to ask about the situation over there, then there is really nothing to introduce. There is always a place near the forest and the cave. A few small villages, no one knows that the place has suddenly become a gathering place for bandits?"
Airl thought for a while, and asked again: "Then, may I ask, have the two names Death Forest and Death Cave been produced for a long time?"
After thinking about it again, the president of the Purgatory Guild finally shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily true. I don't think I've heard of this name before three or four years ago. These two names should have been arranged recently. Up."
After speaking, Airl has no problem.After saying goodbye to the guild leader with a smile, he led his guild towards the parking lot.
There, several guilds that formed groups with Song of the Mermaid had already been waiting for a long time.When they got together, they immediately began to push the carriage, drove out of Hanhai City, and drove towards the direction of the death forest together with a large number of other guild carriages.
----
Three days is not too long, and even if you slow down a little after leaving the main road, it is nothing in front of these adventurers who are accustomed to living in the wind and sleeping in the open.
In a blink of an eye, it was the evening of the third day.Before the last rays of the setting sun had completely set on the horizon, the adventurers had already seen the dense forest at the foot of the mountain in the distance.More than 400 adventurers stopped their carriages one after another and began to gather together to raise bonfires, set up tents, and cook with fire.
This is not a carelessness, but to prepare the most energetic reserves for the attack tomorrow morning.
Also at a distance of about [-] meters in front of where everyone camped, many assassins and thieves began to set traps and ring bells in the cracks between the slopes and rocks, as a cordon to protect the camp, so be sure to be safe.
The same goes for Song of the Mermaid.
After setting up the trap, Cream non-stop took out the national war cards, and went to play cards with the national war card fans in several other guilds to pass the time.Coco and Brad were cooking, and when it was done, Brad scooped up a bowl and sent it to Cream, and then arranged for everyone to have dinner.
"President, do you think those bandits will come to attack us tonight?"
Cheese, who just woke up, opened the small bag he carried with him, took out one of the sugar candies, stuffed it into his mouth, and said while holding it.
Airl looked at the surrounding terrain, shook his head, and said, "Our campsite belongs to the upwind area, and the terrain is quite high. There are many mountains and canyons around, and traps are set up everywhere. I believe that so many The rich experience of the adventurers here is absolutely no worse than those bandits. And those bandits must be crazy to want to go to this open mountain to fight. My only worry is..."
After taking a sip from the tea bowl in his hand, he thought for a while and continued: "The only thing I worry about is whether we will encounter an ambush when we attack that forest tomorrow. Even if everyone here is Adventurers with strong fighting power, but don't forget that those who can participate in this guild championship battle are basically rookies who have been established for less than three years."
Margot looked very relaxed, she drank the soup in her bowl and said, "President, what's your idea? Let's listen to it. It's been so many times anyway, I don't care to listen to it again." What a weird idea."
Regarding this, Airl gave a wry smile helplessly, and said, "Margaux, I have said it many times. It is my responsibility to find ways to make money, but thinking about how to break the enemy's formation is not something I am good at. Of course, if I can fully grasp the specific data of the enemy and us, such as the number of people, combat capabilities, and the personal information and personality of the bandit leaders, then I can formulate strategies. But now I don’t know anything Under the circumstances, I can research a ghost."
This is not modesty, Arrow really feels that he is too far behind in the specific arrangement of tactics.Usually when facing the battle directly, it is at most to command on the spot, and then make improvised response according to the situation discovered.But if you really want to plan carefully in advance, then you really overestimate him.
Coco is now in the third bowl, she smashed her mouth, drank the food in her bowl, and said: "Brother President, let's proceed steadily as we discussed with other presidents before." Slowly push forward? I looked around, and the strength of our guild is actually not weak. No matter how bad it is, let Brother Cheese go to the forest by himself first, kill some bandits and come out, isn’t it all right? Anyway Cheese brother can't kill him either."
"Well, you stinky girl, I don't die so easily, so I can just die casually, right?"
The cheese was also polite, and after waiting for Ke Ke to put down the bowl, he slapped the girl on the back of the head.
When Coco covered his head and started chattering, Cheese turned his head, looked at Ai Luo with a smile on his face, and said, "President, although this little girl's idea is not very reliable, I think it's a good idea. I can Go to investigate first, maybe you can easily complete the task?"
Arrow didn't mind if it was possible.After all, cheese's "immortality" is still very convenient.
However, he still has some concerns.
Before so many questions in his heart were solved, it was not a joke to casually let a guild member go deep into the enemy camp, in case something happened.
After thinking for a while, Airl shook his head and said, "I don't need it tonight. There are too many weirdnesses revealed in this mission. I hope to be able to proceed steadily... You also know that the royal family is likely to be behind the scenes. Given this battle, if we don’t want to become extremely passive in the event of an accident, then we still need to fight steadily.”
The discussion is over here.After eating, everyone should clean up and rest.On the other hand, Cream over there was still playing cards with a few adventurers. He seemed to be having a good time playing cards, and he didn't look like he was going to sleep for a while.
Arrow looked at the time and decided to go over and take care of it.But at this moment, several figures in cloaks quietly walked to the camp where the Mermaid Song Guild was stationed.At the same time, it also blocked Airl's way.
Chapter 840 Two Ugly Monsters
"Ah... the hand of heaven?"
Airl was taken aback for a moment, his eyes resting on the badges on the chests of these cloaked men.After a while, a smile appeared on his face——
"It turns out that you are also acting together here? I thought you would leave sooner. Is there anything you can do?"
The other Mermaid Song members are also members who have seen these Heavenly Hands now. Brad and Cheese immediately stood up and came to the sides behind Airl.Ke Ke and Margot both stood at the back of the team, preventing themselves from being exposed to each other's direct vision.
As for Cream in the distance, while calling the person in front of him to play cards, he quietly put his hand on the blade of nature around his waist.
However, the Hand of Heaven doesn't seem to be interested in answering Arrow's question.Their eyes swept over the camp of Mermaid Song, and after a while, the two of them went straight to the camp that had been built over there.After they circled the small tent, they walked to another tent and checked again.
Arrow snorted and said, "Is there any question?"
A fat-looking member of Hand of Heaven stepped forward, took off the hood on his head, narrowed his smiling eyes, and said, "What? You won't be allowed to check?"
Seeing that the other party had such a smile, Airl naturally couldn't be inferior.He smiled brighter, and said: "Where is that! The hand of heaven didn't open the tent, just looked outside. Besides, we are camping now, if people are not allowed to look outside the tent , that would seem too domineering."
The fat man looked Ai Luo up and down, then nodded slightly, and said with a smile again: "President Ai Luo, I have heard about your deeds. In fact, the most prominent of the previous two missions may be precisely You mermaid song. For this reason, I have specially investigated you."
Ai Luo laughed, seeing that the members of the Hand of Heaven over there had walked around all the tents and came back, he immediately smiled and said: "Thank you for the compliment, it is also the luck of Song of the Mermaid to get the attention of the Hand of Heaven Bar."
The fat man nodded again and said with a smile: "Yes, you are very lucky. And lucky people often know what to do and what not to do."
The two members of the investigation came back and shook their heads lightly in front of the fat man. The fat man hummed, and then said with a smile: "I believe President Airo will know what to do at the most critical moment. Then , Excuse me, I wish you a pleasant evening."
After speaking, the fat man turned around.It seemed that nothing really happened, and he was about to leave.
but……
Just when Airl exhaled softly, sighing that he could finally have a good rest tonight...
"You just left? Don't check anymore?!"
A slightly sharp voice suddenly came from the cloaked men in the Hand of Heaven!And this voice...
It turned out to be a girl's voice?
Airl was taken aback, then raised his head, only to see a cloaked man pointing at himself, and said angrily to the fat man——
"Why don't you go in and search? Why, you are afraid of such a small guild? Go in and search! If there is a problem, I will blame it!"
Seeing that the owner of this voice uttered such nonsense, the smile on the fat man's face was obviously not very good-looking.He no longer smiled as before, but said in a somewhat embarrassed manner: "Okay, okay, let's go back and talk, let's go back and talk..."
"Why go back and talk? Is there anything you can't say here?"
Perhaps because he felt uncomfortable, the owner of the voice pulled the hood off his head.
And the next moment, Airl saw a monster-like face appearing in front of him!
Sparse and dry hair, a half-bald forehead, two large and one small eyes, a face covered with a lot of plaques, a collapsed nose, and a smeared red face, which makes people fall in love at first glance. The lips that feel physically uncomfortable, and even the mouth that turns yellow and lacks teeth after the mouth is opened!
If there is really a certain kind of person in this world that can be called "ugly", then the face that appears in front of Airl is undoubtedly synonymous with "ugly"!
"Miss...Miss! There are so many people here...please don't make any noise! I beg you, miss!"
Now, the fat man is completely begging.
However, this ugly monster is still relentless.She put down her leather gloved hand, nodded and said, "Okay, if you don't do it, then I'll do it!"
As she said that, she completely ignored Airl beside her, and walked directly towards those tents.Seeing her menacing appearance, Margo yawned slightly, and walked straight to her tent, blocking the way of this "eldest lady" with the staff in her hand.
