Chapter 537: New Team, Unexpected Interception!

A super-large human settlement of about 30,000 people is still within a thousand kilometers of the depression. Google search reading

As soon as he heard this "big news", Su Mo wanted to reject it directly.

After all, when the depression was moved, through the analysis of the various camps on the map.

It can be clearly seen that most of the human settlements are concentrated on the lower left side of the coast of the New World, together with many ordinary small tribes of foreign races.

Few humans dare to go to the middle of the New World, let alone to the upper right corner where the depression is now!

In the interior of the continent, it means that once a war breaks out, it will face the embarrassing situation of being attacked from both sides.

In the absence of sufficient strength, there are hungry wolves behind and fierce tigers in front, and you will be someone else's prey wherever you go.

At the same time, without the supplement of marine fish food in the inland, most humans can't have enough food to transition to the recovery of crop production like the depression.

Only a small number of people who think they are strong and have enough basic resources dare to go deep into the tiger's den and seek benefits and development with the foreign races in the inland.

And these people will never expand their scale to 30,000, which will cause a situation where the tail is too big to be removed.

"Within a thousand kilometers"

"The distance we directly cross from the coastline is about 1,600 kilometers to 1,800 kilometers, within this range"

After trying hard to recall the details recorded on the map and filtering out some useless corner maps, a vague terrain map appeared in Su Mo's mind.

Four powerful neighbors near the depression, several small tribes of tree people, and a large area of ​​colorful medium-sized tribes

In addition, there are many places that are temporarily unowned.

From top to bottom, according to the scale of 30,000 people and the general situation of the terrain, Su Mo began a detailed analysis.

After a while, as the whole passage came to the end, when the two returned again, Su Mo raised his head thoughtfully:

"Hao Qiang, did this person tell me the direction of this human gathering place?"

"Direction?" Hao Qiang was stunned, then thought for a while, and said uncertainly: "When he shouted to me, I was afraid of exposing my identity, so I didn't communicate with him, but he seemed to have mentioned a direction. Let me think, maybe it's southeast?"

"Hiss"

One guess may be a coincidence, and two guesses together may also be a conspiracy.

But when three, four, or even more guesses are put together, the cost of falsification is undoubtedly far greater than the fact itself!

With the depression as the center, draw a circle within a range of one thousand kilometers.

The north, west, and east are all endless plains, which are most suitable for large forces to develop here.

Only the south, which is a little to the east, is not like the terrain near the depression within a range of one thousand kilometers. There are wilderness everywhere.

In the mark on the map, the southeast is almost all long mountains, with a length of up to four or five hundred kilometers.

According to normal people's thinking, these mountains are barren and desolate, and basically cut off from the outside world. It is indeed not a good place to develop.

But if you change your thinking angle and become a "Tibetan", let alone 30,000 people, there will be no problem even if 300,000 people come!

"Let's go, take me over to see, what this person said may be true!"

"But the probability that we will be discovered"

"No, we will not be discovered, Hao Qiang, you still haven't completely changed your mentality. Think about it, what is your current identity!"

Understanding your own identity is the most important part of the lurking process.

And this is also the first lesson that Hao Qiang took when Su Deben opened the lurking class.

"Current identity?"

"Now I am"

Looking at his silver-white lower body, and then looking at the blue mark on his arm that was glowing with light, Hao Qiang was stunned, and then his eyes quickly showed enlightenment.

From the perspective of the lurker, in the enemy camp, seeing the captured people of his own, he is naturally afraid of his identity being exposed, so the mentality of considering the problem will immediately return to the state before lurking.

But think about it carefully, considering the status of the Demon Soul Clan, a super-large human settlement of 30,000 people is indeed a possible "hot commodity".

"With his current flamboyant attitude of shouting to everyone he sees, there is no need to guess at all"

"I guarantee that when he first appeared in this place, many people must have known the news, and he must have told more than one person the real location of the settlement he mentioned"

"But until now, no one has redeemed him, and he is still working hard to attract customers here, which proves that the value of this news is completely not equal to his efforts"

"Hao Qiang, don't think that these people of the Demon Soul Clan are as clumsy as children in market transactions, but when it comes to choosing interests, we can't catch up with them even if we flatter them!"

It was like talking to himself, but also like on-site teaching.

When he completely walked out of the exchange, Su Mo had completely become interested in the super-large human settlement mentioned by this human.

Indeed, it spans hundreds or even nearly a thousand kilometers.

For these people of the Demon Soul Clan, regardless of how much profit they have, the initial investment alone requires an unimaginable amount of money.

The people who could afford this amount of money, counting all the names in the city, were only the top ten exchanges, the escort team, and a few scattered people who had some talent.

For the top ten exchanges, the benefits brought by 30,000 ordinary people may not be as great as overwhelming one of their peers. There is absolutely no need to take this risk.

As for the guards, the complex situation in the city and the relentless pursuit of the Empire of Light outside the city have already made them anxious enough, and they have no intention of caring about the whereabouts of these humans.

As for the remaining individual investors, they will even less invest money.

Compared with other people, they have the most difficult time getting money. On weekdays, they would rather break a dollar in half and spend it. How can they invest money in such a bottomless pit full of risks.

Taken together, this super-large gathering place that the captive humans talked about has become something that everyone wants, but no one is willing to pay for.

Tasteless!

"Hey, Lord Hal, this is"

"Oh, he is the new shopkeeper in my shop. I just heard him say that someone in your alien sales said that he has news about a large human gathering place. I am very interested in this!"

After leaving the exchange in a remote place and walking all the way back to the entrance of the exchange where Hao Qiang was talking, the servants greeted him skillfully.

After hearing Somo's intention, the servant did not show any surprised expression. Instead, he smiled with a sense of pity and a sense of strangeness:

"Oh, Master Hal, I'm so sorry. This person has been listed for sale here for five or six days. The price is not high. Many people have seen it, but no one bought it."

"When your shopkeeper first came here, he also knew that his brain was not suitable. Most people would just take a look at it for fun."

"Unfortunately, our external steward in Free City, Mr. Stone Ninja, just came over and picked this person away without anyone asking for it. This is true."

After touching his head, the servant said, while quietly making a gesture to his shopkeeper from behind.

In Liberty City, people doing business in the outer city will be at a higher level than those in the inner city because they face greater competitive pressure and target more people.

Similarly, people who do serious business in the city will be one level higher than those who sell mercenaries in the inner city.

Adding the two together, even though they are both merchants selling things, the identity of the owner of the Xinhuo Exchange is still much higher than that of the ordinary mercenary exchange owner.

While thinking about the past, two high-status people fought in the inner city because they both fell in love with a mercenary, causing a huge uproar.

Immediately, the shopkeeper of Mingtang Exchange came up wiping his sweat.

Like the servant, the shopkeeper was straightforward and offered today's 10% discount without saying anything, which was a sincerity from the very beginning.

"It's such a pity, but I'm just interested. Since the Stone Ninja Manager likes it, that's okay!"

Smiling awkwardly, Sumo had a look on his face that showed that although he was unhappy, he could only force a smile.

The next moment, after walking into the exchange and taking Hao Qiang for a walk, Sumo walked out of the exchange with a gloomy face.

In the whole performance, although Sumo didn't say anything, anyone who saw him could see that he was holding back his anger.

And this is exactly in line with Hal's fiery temper and his tendency to get into fights when he gets upset.

However, after walking to a sparsely populated place behind the street corner and entering what Hal called a "high-end" exchange again, Sumo's expression returned to normal instantly.

"Director, the person was actually bought, could it be?"

"Don't worry, I have been in contact with Shi Nin. He will not be interested in this person. The greater possibility is"

Halfway through his words, Sumo suddenly stopped and stared at the cage with a wooden sign marking the information.

Unlike ordinary mercenaries seen in other exchanges, after coming to these high-end exchanges, although the price has more than doubled, the quality has also increased several levels simultaneously.

First of all, in terms of living, the accommodation here is not a small cubicle with a size of only three square meters, making it difficult to even turn around.

Everyone who can live here is allocated a small residence of eight to ten square meters with all the living facilities.

Except for the fence used to separate the entrance and the iron chains still on each mercenary's feet and hands, the mental state of them living here is obviously much better.

In the first few exchanges, most of them were manual mercenaries. Only occasionally could you see an intellectual type, and the price was very expensive.

Here, for the first time, Sumo finally saw the so-called "all-rounder".

"You used to be a fourth-level professional, but because your template was forcibly peeled off and all your resources were given to your brother, you have now lost all your strength and become an ordinary mercenary."

"What you are good at are small-scale combat, latent operations, basic business operations, and basic housekeeping services."

"The master you desire is someone who is motivated, unsatisfied with the current life, and promises to be free after five years of employment."

"Your price is four thousand contribution points!"

As Somo read the message on the wooden sign word by word, the thin man who was imprisoned on the stool raised his head, a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes.

Unlike other mercenaries in other places, when they see a strong person, they kneel on the ground and beg him to take them out, but when they see a weak person, they don't even bother to raise their faces.

The man's attitude was very upright and he knew his identity as a prisoner.

Although his eyes were full of resistance, he still tried his best to show himself in the face of Su Mo's scrutiny.

"Can I ask you a question?"

When choosing, guests and mercenaries can have a brief conversation to determine the compatibility of both parties.

But there are also some people who look down on each other and choose to keep silent and pretend to be dumb so as not to be picked by the buyer.

Facing Su Mo's question, the man was stunned for a moment, and then nodded slightly.

"What is the one thing you want to do most?"

"What do you want to do most?"

It seems that Su Mo did not expect to use such a question as an opening statement between the two people, and the man's prepared draft could not be used.

However, after reacting for a moment, he said decisively: "What I want to do most is, of course, revenge and grievance. I want everyone to know that what I lost, I will take it back with my own hands!"

"Very good, you are selected by me, get ready and I will take you to handle the formalities later!"

Wow!

Almost as soon as the man finished speaking, Su Mo responded and pressed the selection button on the fence.

As the button rang, a stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the other cells that were originally quiet suddenly heard an inevitable commotion.

At the same time, some bold people poked their heads out, curiously looking at what kind of person bought their "colleagues".

"You buy me now?"

"Why, do I need to pass your test to buy you?"

After the button rang, the servant in charge of the transaction moved quickly, and in less than half a minute, his figure appeared at the end of the cell.

Looking at the servant's full smile, the man also clearly realized Su Mo's identity, which was not as ordinary as the template showed.

"No, no, I mean, if you plan to buy me, you'd better consider them!"

"They are very strong, stronger than those on record!"

In just a moment, the man quickly changed his position and began to consider the master's affairs.

In response to this, Su Mo turned his head curiously and began to walk forward along the position pointed by the man.

After a while.

With 34,000 contribution points being transferred from Turner's account and a pleasant sound of arrival, the mercenary replacement finally achieved initial success.

"Master Hal, do you think we should help you with the formalities of these mercenaries, or do you handle them yourself?"

"I have arranged the people. If you take them away now, we can go to handle the formalities immediately!"

More than 30,000 contribution points are not many in this free city.

But considering that Su Mo is not like other people, taking it back to speculate in stocks, buying today and selling tomorrow, then these 30,000 points are real profits.

Faced with such a huge sum of money, considering several reasons, even if there is a shadow of the guard team behind this exchange, the attitude is also humble enough.

"Let's go and handle it together, it just so happens that I have to handle it for him!"

Pointing to Hao Qiang beside him, after confirming other procedures, a group of people began to walk into the street.

After walking along the winding streets and arriving at a place that only handles large transactions, the procedures began to be handled quickly.

From the authority management of all mercenaries to the fine for changing Hao Qiang's identity, the whole process was completed smoothly with only one thousand contribution points, which can be said to be extremely convenient.

At the same time, half an hour after the procedures were completed.

The seven mercenaries purchased by the group were processed with express procedures and quickly sent to the office.

From left to right, there are a total of five men and two women, and the templates are uniformly the first-level arm transformation people provided by the exchange.

Looking at their new boss, everyone's face is nervous with a hint of surprise.

Obviously, on the way here, they have already fully known the identity of the master.

"Hal, are these people any good? Why do I feel that they are not as powerful as our traitors in terms of momentum!"

Turner, who had just paid a huge sum of money, was close to Su Mo's ear and looked distressed.

You know, the price of the seventeen mercenaries purchased before was only two thousand!

Now, the number of people has halved, but the price has increased by more than ten times.

It is completely different from the imagined brand new and unique feeling. The seven people look like they have no characteristics, just like ordinary goods that can be bought for a few hundred points in ordinary exchanges.

"Don't worry, whether they are mediocre or genius, we still have to use them to know, but in terms of loyalty, at least we don't have to worry about what we ate today, someone will know it in the next second!"

After taking over the formal stamping procedures of the seven people including Hao Qiang and putting them in his arms, Su Mo's face brought a long-lost smile.

In terms of ability, these mercenaries may only be considered mid-level, not outstanding.

But when it comes to loyalty, Su Mo believes that as long as they are reasonably trained to a certain extent.

These people will become a sharp knife in his hand!

When the time comes, even the Demon Soul Clan and Liberty City will be completely penetrated by this sharp knife with hatred, leaving only a pile of ruins and debris!
