Gold is Justice

However, Airl shook his head lightly, and continued: "Hands on the royal family? What, they robbed the royal family?"

Duck exhaled: "Not really. However, last year our royal princess celebrated her 15th birthday, and a large piece of strangely shaped jewels was brought from the frontier to congratulate her. But when passing through this mountainous area, those jewels were These bandits have been robbed... President Arrow, I know exactly what I'm talking about, and I also know that I do have a lot of conflicts. They robbed the gifts of the royal princess, but at the same time they also have a lot of old and weak women and children ..."

When Duck was frowning, Cream came up from behind and said, "I see, was it that robbery of [-] gold? The earl who was transporting it at that time did not expect that at such a short distance from the capital, there would be I would also encounter such fierce bandits, so there was no defense at all. This caused the bandits at that time to kill many people accompanying them. More than a hundred people died before and after."

Cream's words made Brad's eyes become confused.He looked at the bandits who were protected by the powerful guild over there, and his expression was obviously equally confused.

Airl exhaled, and said, "Why wasn't the gang of bandits that caused so many casualties immediately eliminated?"

Dak shook his head lightly, and said: "I heard from my father that he seemed to have suggested to the nobles that they want to exterminate these bandits. However, the amount of funds needed to exterminate this group of bandits is a bit huge, and those nobles don't seem to be I am willing to pay to cooperate. In addition, although the place occupied by these bandits is very close to the capital, in fact, there is a plain between this forest and the capital, and it is impossible for small bandits to cross such a They only dared to operate in this mountainous area. In addition, except for a very small number of people, this mountainous area was not within the key roads, so there was no further action for a while."

With a ding, a silver coin flew into the air, and after a crisp and pleasant sound, it returned to Airl's hand——

"Speaking of it, it's still because of money. It takes money to wipe out bandits, and it also takes money to maintain key traffic arteries. When the expenditure exceeds the income, naturally there is no motivation to deal with things here. But... ..."

After a brief pause, Airl asked again—

"Now the land in the poor village is also being looked at, involving so many landlords behind the consortium who want to compete with each other. Does this mean that this area has any development value now, so I finally made up my mind to let us adventurers To deal with these bandits? And these values... I guess, is it because of the large amount of magic crystal deposits hidden here?"

A little surprise appeared on Dak's face.He looked at Airl silently, as if he was looking at someone who couldn't figure it out——

"how do you know?"

Arrow couldn't laugh at Duck's current surprise.

Now, he finally understands everything, and also understands several problems that have been bothering him in this bandit annihilation battle.

"It turned out to be like this...why are there so many bandits gathered, why are so many bandits not wiped out, why are we allowed to handle the work here, why are the poor villages so close to the bandits, but not at all Signs of bandit harassment... I understand all of this."

"In the final analysis, it is because this so-called death forest and death mine are not in the traffic arteries of the empire's territory. In other words, the development here before has no economic value at all."

"If it's wood, there are several good-quality forest protection areas around Hanhai City that can be used. If it's stone, such a big pothole already shows that the stone here has almost been dug."

"There is no use value at all, so no energy will be spent on maintenance. Without the patrol of the imperial army, it will naturally become a gathering place for all kinds of thieves and robbers."

"Similarly, because of the lack of the care of the empire, this makes this place, which is only three days away from Hanhai City, very barren. There are no special products, and the output of items is not much. In this case, as long as you After the calamity year three years ago, bandits will naturally emerge and gather here."

"Then, the bandits who came here just for fame continued to gather, and everyone regarded this place as a place outside the law. Since these bandits themselves knew that they came from the villagers, they didn't care about the surrounding villages that lived in the same hardship. How to harass. If you don’t harass the surrounding villages, there will be little motivation for the surrounding villages to entrust adventurers to destroy them. Even in these villages, some young and middle-aged men will join the bandit gangs and become part of the bandits.”

After saying all this, Airl clapped his hands again, let out a long breath, and said slowly——

"In short, all of this is due to economic problems. It's just this simple economic problem. After the discovery of a large amount of magic crystal deposits here, it was declared over. These bandits changed from the original ones, and immediately became It must be eliminated and then quickly exist. Only after all these bandits are driven away or killed, can the royal family take over this area in a legitimate way, and carry out large-scale development here to obtain magic power crystals."

Chapter 850 The Eighth World Is a Business

Airl paused for a moment, then looked at the trembling bandits gathered behind the Protector's Guild again, but his tone was full of helplessness: "The real purpose of the empire is to get these bandits to go away. Just like the archipelago and the Like a poor village, people must have come here to inquire about the news before, hoping that they can leave by themselves. However, for those who have already developed their lives here, driving people away without any compensation or insufficient compensation, How difficult it will be. And because they have experienced many times of expelling people, they have no special precautions against the guild's extermination of bandits. Maybe they still think that it will be the same as before, a little bit Just be on the alert."

With a bang, the staff of light fell to the ground, and the bottom of the stick even pierced deeply into the soil under his feet. Even if he let go of his hand, he might not be able to move at all.

Dak nodded slightly, and said: "President Airl, your analysis is quite complicated, and I understand it. They are bandits, there is nothing wrong with that, and it is the job of us adventurers to exterminate them. If If possible, I would like to let go of those old and weak women and children, they have not committed much crime."

Ai Luo chuckled, shrugged, and said, "Okay, kill all the young and middle-aged laborers. It's just that how long can these old and weak women and children live without the support of the family?"

Duck: "This..."

Now, it's the middle of the night.

No matter how violent the bloody and murderous atmosphere in the entire pit is, some adventurers will lose their spirits and begin to fall into lethargy.Although there is no way to leave, it is not difficult for the several guilds who are protectors to hold on here.Some of them even started laying down sleeping bags and lay down to sleep.

Seeing that these people are all starting to sleep, there is no reason for the attacker not to recharge their spirits.

Airl glanced at the time, it was past three in the morning.

Seeing that the time was so late, he also yawned, stretched his waist, took out the sleeping bag from his backpack, opened it and said, "Okay, this matter doesn't seem to be anything worse for a while. A good solution, let us sleep first and wait until our spirits recover before making plans."

Now that the president of the family is sleeping on the floor, the other members of Mermaid Song have nothing to say, and they all start to sleep on the floor.Only the cheese is sitting on the ground with his arms folded, his eyes still look so energetic.

Dak looked at Airl's side, and then looked at the situation under the pothole. It seems that there is no better way now, so he can only continue to fight a protracted battle in this kind of situation.

----

bake--!

The flames rose, turning all the bodies of the dead into ashes.

While removing the peculiar smell, it can also be regarded as the last respect for these dead.

No one could have imagined that this persistence could last for such a long time.

The protector and the attacker persisted in confrontation in this pothole, and this indifferent confrontation has lasted for three full days.

At this time, the competition of strength turned into a confrontation of willpower.Both sides are unwilling to give in, and are waiting for the critical moment at the last moment to arrive.

The attackers have quite a lot of food reserves, and now they can go to the forest outside to hunt from time to time.

But this kind of hunting is also risky.

The biggest risk is that the people who protect Fang will also take advantage of this time to go hunting from another road.

And once the number of people leaving on both sides is about the same, the number of people returning from hunting on the attacking side will be inexplicably reduced by a few.

In the words of that Gem Lan president, those missing people should have felt the call of some mysterious power, and thus disappeared in this area.

Airl gnawed at the dry food in his hands, still carefully observing everything in front of him.

Compared with a few days ago when he was always thinking about the contradictory relationship between these bandits and the country, now he is clear-headed and clear about his goal.

His goal is always only one, and that is to make money!

Only when he can swim casually in the sea of ​​gold coins like a giant dragon, then he feels that he should think about other things.

So, how exactly can you make money from this situation?

Now, the sun has fallen into this pit from directly above, and all those who want to take a good rest are now a little tired because of the dazzling sunlight.

However, just after the sunlight finally moved over the pothole, everyone in Song of the Mermaid suddenly discovered something!

Their president... disappeared?

No, it shouldn't be said that he didn't see him, but the short president has already walked down the stairs, passed through the adventurers who kept laying their bunks around the campfire, and walked straight to the protectors over there!

"President Gem Blue, hello!"

Airl didn't talk to the members of Hand of Heaven, but directly faced the blue distance, and greeted very heartily.

Gemstone Blue looked up at Airl, then put on an elegant posture again, and said with a smile: "Would you like to ask me for an autograph? Yes, I am very free now."

Ai Luo smiled slightly, shook his head, and said, "I believe Blue Yuanfang will be able to successfully break through this mission and advance to the finals, right?"

Gem looked Ai Luo up and down, with a frivolous expression, but there was no sign of neglect in his eyes, and he said slowly: "What do you want to say?"

Ai Luo turned his head and looked at the two sides, and after confirming that there was no one else, he smiled and said: "If you can advance smoothly, then the biggest trouble you will encounter in the finals... should be Hand of Heaven Right? Guild Master Gem, do you think that with your guild's current strength...do you have the ability to defeat the Hand of Heaven?"

There was a slight flicker between Gemstone's brows, and after a moment of silence, he smiled slightly and said, "I know you are the president of Heaven's Hand, Dak Guangzhongguang's friend. You have been yelling about this for the past few days. .I don’t know if you’re real or you’re putting money on your face, do you think I’m going to reveal my thoughts to a friend of an enemy?”

Ai Luo smiled slightly, and began to wriggle his fingers and said: "Actually, there is no need to ask you about this point. Behind the hand of heaven is the light of heaven. This guild is an unsuspecting guild in our Blue Bay Empire." The largest guild. I believe everyone has heard that the president of the Hand of Heaven is the son of the president of the Light of Heaven. Under such circumstances, the father will definitely lean the best resources to his son. In other words, Hand of Heaven may have been equipped with the strongest lineup of Light of Heaven from the very beginning."

"In comparison, I don't deny that the blue distance should also be a lower-level guild cultivated by the abyss guild, but are you sure that the resources invested by the abyss in the blue distance will be as rich and reckless as the light of heaven is to the hand of heaven?"

No worry flashed across Gemstone's face, but a sneer: "Hehe, you want to drive me apart?" Ai Luo quickly waved his hand and said with a smile: "No, no, no, I just want to say a fact, a fact that any of us It is a fact that everyone can easily understand. And it is based on this fact that what I want to say next is what I really want to discuss with you. That is... are you interested... at this time Hand of Heaven eliminated?"

At that moment, the smile on Gem's face finally disappeared.He began to observe Airl in front of him seriously, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Is it up to you? Why do you eliminate Hand of Heaven? Besides, he is so calm now, maybe he has already collected the missions already." Woolen cloth."

Such a refusal was already within the expected range, and Airl didn't panic, just smiled calmly, and continued: "Don't believe me? If I really have a way, what do you say?"

Gem snorted and said, "If you have the ability to really eliminate Hand of Heaven in this mission, then the trophy of the guild championship must be our blue distance. Your song of the mermaid has contributed a lot, and I I can give you all the 500 gold coins as a bonus. But... hehe, I think you are just bragging here."

Airl was very calm, nodded and continued: "If you say it is difficult, it is actually very difficult for you. But if you say it is simple, it is extremely easy for me."

"I have here a contract in which I signed a joint agreement with the president of Hand of Heaven, Dak Guangzhongguang. In other words, we are connected with the Hand of Heaven team this time. But the problem is..."

Airl raised a finger and waved it in front of his face, and said with a smile: "This contract was signed with me in private by the president of Heaven's Hand. In other words, none of his members know about it at present. "

"Do you know what this means? It means that as long as our Song of the Mermaid does not carry out any activities to exterminate the bandits, and the hand of heaven over there does not know the link contract, it just collects its own mission If you have twenty ears, then once you wait for the settlement, you will suddenly find that twenty ears are not enough for our two guilds."

"That's when..."

Airl made a vertical descent, smiled and said—

"Hand of heaven, because there is no way to complete the task, it is completely finished~~~!"

If the gemstone just now had a completely mocking look, then the gemstone now has a completely skeptical expression.

No, maybe even a little more of the trust.

Facing Airl, Gemstone seemed a little hesitant, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "How do you do this? Now there are still nine days before the end, and there are still six days left after the three days for the return journey. If the president of the hand suddenly ran out at this time..."



Chapter 850 Nine Plans Can't Work

Ai Luo shook his head and said with a smile: "Absolutely not. I can guarantee this! The handsome president you imagined is wearing armor, holding a sword and killing all directions, making all the girls fascinated. It will never appear! After all, I really know him too well, we have worn a pair of crotch pants since we were young!"

Gemstone took a breath, exhaled it again, and after taking another breath, said: "If it is really possible, it is really a good way to eliminate the hand of heaven. However, there seems to be a lot more in it. flaws..."

Ai Luo didn't deny it either, and said with a smile: "Of course~~~ If the hand of heaven goes back too quickly, it will be over if you rush back to kill people immediately after discovering this contract. Therefore, I need the president of the gemstone to try to stabilize the hand of heaven as much as possible." The members of the hand, let them not act rashly."

Gem: "That's no problem."

Airl: "Secondly, in order to ensure the success of the plan, please be sure to protect these bandits. At the same time, try not to kill more people. Because there are too many people dying, it is hard to guarantee that the hand of heaven will not suddenly cut off on a whim. A little bit of ear is spared. In this case, the success rate will be greatly reduced."

Gemstone: "There is no problem with this, I will do my best to suppress this place, so as not to cause more bloody conflicts."

Airl: "Okay! Then here is the third thing. That is the token that I need so that we can guarantee each other that we will not betray."

This last question finally made Gem a little confused.Turning his handsome face away, he asked, "The token? Is that very?"

Ai Luo laughed and said, "It's very simple. It's a constraint that can guarantee that Song of the Mermaid and you Blue Yuanfang will come together to carry out this plan together! You can give me 250 gold coins as an advance payment. In this way, after I receive the advance payment, I will think of taking the remaining half and not betraying you. And if the Hand of Heaven is willing to give me 250 gold coins, it means that you are willing to trust us. After all, using 250 gold coins to deceive people, the price is too high."

There is some truth in these words, Gemstone thought for a while and nodded silently.But then, he shook his head again and said, "It seems that there may be no way to sign the agreement between us. Because I don't have that much money with me. It can't meet your deposit fee."

Ai Luo spread his hands and curled his lips: "It doesn't have to be in the form of gold coins, as long as it can make me feel that you will never betray me, and suddenly tell me about me and the hand of heaven next to you, then any Anything of some value will do.”

Now that that's been said, it's hard to say anything more about gemstones.He turned his head, called all the guild members behind him, and asked Airl to explain to them again.

After the explanation, Gem took out a small money bag from his pocket, weighed it, and handed it to Airl: "Not much, the price is less than two gold coins. Take a look."

This money bag is really small, so small that Arrow almost thought it was garbage!

The money bags that other guild members took out were also very small, and it didn't look like they had a lot of money.

"Hmm...can you get something a little more expensive? You want to exchange for the title of winner of the guild championship for less than ten gold coins, and then go to the palace to participate in the scene where the second prince chooses a concubine? It's too cheap Just a little bit."
