Chapter 23 Negotiation (Part 1)

Shen Yi's words were like a thunderbolt, which knocked Fatty dizzy.

Not only him, even Ruan Rou and others looked at Shen Yi in disbelief.

Duriel, the King of Pain, Lu Gaoyin's most powerful mission boss, and the Demon King of Hell who is stronger than Andariel, Shen Yi actually asked Fatty to fight him one-on-one?

Is this guy crazy?

The fat man looked at Shen Yi in a daze: "Boss...boss...you...you..."

He was so frightened by Shen Yi that he couldn't even speak, he could only look at his boss with pleading eyes, Shen Yi smiled at Fatty: "Why, are you scared?"

The fat man gritted his teeth and said nothing.

He knew he couldn't say the word "afraid".

After joining the Broken Blade team for so long, he has gradually understood many truths.

In the bloody city, a person can be incompetent, arrogant, and even stupid, but the only thing that cannot be timid. To survive in a place like the bloody city, the basic quality that adventurers need is to dare to fight.

Without this foundation, all good qualities are bullshit.

He was able to join the Broken Blade team because he stood up and fought bravely at the last critical moment in the X-Men mission. Although he played a very small role, Shen Yi saw Fatty's potential at that moment's outburst, and thus accepted him.

If the fat man said the word "fear" today, saying that he dare not accept this task, then Shen Yi might not force him, but he would definitely be disappointed with him.

He didn't want to let Shen Yi down, he didn't want to let the team down, and most importantly, he also believed that Shen Yi would never push him to his death.

So there was a pause, and he said, "No, boss, I'm not afraid. If you want me to be a Halo Knight, I can try."

Shen Yi looked at him with a smile.

The fat man in front of him had a simple and honest expression, he was obviously terrified to death, but he insisted on holding on and never retreated, this is what Shen Yi admired most about him.

There is a kind of people in this world who may not perform well at ordinary times and are extremely timid, but they can often unleash amazing strength in desperate situations.

Fatty is obviously this type of person, but it's a pity that he has been under Shen Yi's wing for so long that he gradually doesn't know how to fly solo.

Nodding in satisfaction, Shen Yi put his arms around Fatty: "Very good, this is my brother. Don't worry, I won't let you die so easily."

The fat man snorted, he didn't know what Shen Yi had planned, but the long-term inertia had made him gradually learn to trust Shen Yi unconditionally.

Shen Yi looked around at his teammates, and then said: "I know you are all wondering why I let Luo Hao choose the profession of Halo Warrior. There are three reasons for me. 1. This profession is strong enough to ensure the overall strength of the team. Second, with the halo effect, it is possible to better attract adventurer opponents, otherwise, it is impossible to display his true value only by imprisoning chains. The professional tasks of three halo warriors require the shortest time and the simplest execution process .We don't have much time to waste, and it's the best thing to do."

King Kong replied immediately: "I admit that you are right. It would be great to have a halo warrior in the team, but the question is can he do it? That is the hell demon king Duriel!"

"You don't have to worry about this problem. Since I dare to let Luo Hao fight, of course there is a way to keep him alive. When he actually fights, I will put T1000, ant suit, star necklace and other things that can help him become stronger. Give him all the equipment."

Hearing Shen Yi's words, everyone was obviously relieved.

It turned out that Shen Yi wanted to use the method of equipment transfer to instantly strengthen one person, so as to achieve his goal.

With Fatty's strength, even with these equipments, he can't be Duriel's opponent, but on the other hand, if he only lasts for three minutes, he can do a lot. What's more, the Broken Blade team now has two big killers, the team assembly order and the space gate, even if they can't fight, they can always escape.

However, King Kong was still worried: "The question is, how can we face competition from other aspects?"

"How can there be competition?" Shen Yi asked back.

King Kong was taken aback by these words: "Those adventurers..."

Shen Yi quickly interrupted him: "They won't be a problem! Believe me, it doesn't matter whether it's time or adventurers, it won't be a problem!"

Everyone was dizzy when they heard this, but Shen Yi had strode up to Deckard Cain and said, "Dear elder, we can accept your request. We will protect Lu Gaoyin and this beautiful land as much as possible." Last effort."

Ding!

The bloody coat of arms sounded: "You have accepted Deckard Cain's commission: retrieve the lost staff. Task execution time: from the start of the main mission of the second arena to the end of the second arena."

"If the mission is successful, the friendliness will increase by 200 points. If the mission fails, 5,000 blood points will be deducted."

—————————

The center of the city is the most prosperous commercial area in Lugaoyin.

Shen Yi and the others found a hotel here to stay - the task will not start until tomorrow, so they have to find a place to eat and live for themselves.

Interestingly, most of the other adventurers also chose to stay at the same hotel. The adventurers who were fighting and fighting with each other a few hours ago now became neighbors.

In the room, Shen Yi was standing at the window and looking out. Some adventurers were walking around in the streets. They should be trying to find out the news, to see if they could officially get the news about the specific address of the mission point before the mission starts tomorrow.

Hong Lang was playing computer games with Zeus, his simple nerves could not tolerate any extra thoughts, anyway, it was up to Shen Yi to decide everything.

The fat man was holding his face in a daze, apparently still worrying about his upcoming mission. Fortunately, Shen Yi didn't tell him to pick up the mission right away, but asked him to wait first. As for what to wait for, he didn't tell him . For him, it is better not to take this task. Although Shen Yi has made careful arrangements for him, when he thinks of the hell demon king Duriel he is going to face, he can't help but feel a little nervous. fear.

As for Zhou Yiyu, he went to the next room to talk to Ivy, while Rourou and King Kong were discussing the next step.

King Kong was holding a pen and paper, and was painting and drawing on it, muttering: "If you want to complete the continuous mission, you must complete the second and third mainline missions. In addition, we have to send people to the Temple of Death, and at the same time Get Duriel in your hands... that's four points."

"We have twelve people now, and each order will send three. The number of people is far from enough, and it is impossible to win all of them." Gentle sighed, stared at Shen Yi at the window, and muttered softly: "Really I don’t know what he thinks, but he still wants us to gather the equipment and give it to Fatty. We can’t be together, how can we give it? If we give it to him, what should we do?”

The more they analyzed, the more they felt that the hope of success was slim, and they sighed sadly together, Shen Yi's plan sounded good, but it was really too difficult to execute.

Shen Yi smiled and said: "Hey, don't you look so sad, okay? Have some confidence in your captain, OK?"

King Kong spread his hands: "It's not that I don't have confidence in you, but that I really can't find any solution to the problem under the current situation. Yes, our current strength can be called the strongest of all, but you Our appetite is stronger than our strength. Three points for the main task and one point for continuous tasks, which means that we have to eat half of the tasks in the second arena."

Shen Yi lazily replied: "Didn't we also get half of the mission before?"

Rourou immediately replied: "That's not the same. We only have to face the threat of adventurers in the first competition field, and we also have the advantage of Zhou Yiyu's speed. We just need to rush to the place and kill special kills. Even so, it's not half the task. At least the contribution points of the Andariel mission will not be our share. But in the second arena, we will not only face the adventurers, but even the target monsters will no longer be easy to deal with. Shen Yi, maybe we can just Use three people to clear the mission point, but it is absolutely impossible to ensure that you get the reward points when other adventurers are watching and making trouble. You want too much, and I’m afraid you won’t get anything when the time comes.”

"Since this is the case, don't let other adventurers become our stumbling block."

King Kong was stunned at the same time, and they glanced at each other.

King Kong's tone was horrified: "You don't mean to kill them all, do you?"

Shen Yi laughed loudly: "How is it possible? Don't say it can't be done, even if it can be done, it's impossible to do it."

He turned his head to look at the sky outside, and after a while he said leisurely: "You are still used to violent thinking, when you encounter problems, you always think of killing them to solve them. In fact, killing is always the worst way to solve problems. The best way The solution to the problem can only and should only be on the negotiating table.”

"negotiation?"

"Yes, negotiation!" Shen Yi turned to look at King Kong: "Why do you think the bloody city keeps a buffer time between competitions? It's just for us to negotiate."

"Who are you talking to?" Gentle asked.

"Of course they are strong targets...Fenglin team and Nanhai team."

"How?"

"Let's talk according to the rules we made!"

"Why?"

The questions followed one after another, quickly and urgently, and Shen Yi's answers were also without thinking.

"Just because we defeated the Longya team in the first competition and won half of the tasks, from now on, we are the boss, and we are qualified to decide how this competition will unfold!"

King Kong and Wen Rou looked at Shen Yi together, even Fatty, who was immersed in the game and pondering, focused on Shen Yi.

negotiation!

The members of the Broken Blade team finally understood Shen Yi's intentions, and also truly understood what the competition and cooperation model is.

First show your fists, confirm your strength, and then strive to become the maker of the rules of the game after you have enough strength. This is the core meaning of the competition and cooperation model.

Cooperation is never fair, and the strong will never be able to share the benefits equally with the weak.

Because of this, in the first arena, because the adventurers are not familiar with each other, there is no basis for negotiation, and it can only be a life-and-death contest between you and me. When we arrived at the second arena, as everyone demonstrated their strength, they got to know each other better, and the foundation for cooperation began to emerge.

In this case, blind confrontation and cannibalism have become meaningless.

The participating parties divide the territory according to their strength, share the benefits equally, and formulate the rules of the game. It is a better choice for the strong to exploit the weak. The previous barbaric competition model will become a game of great powers like the United Nations. The weak will either choose to attach themselves, or they will be ruthlessly eliminated in the brutal competition.

Shen Yi was very smart and did not choose to continue to kill violently, but immediately made a plan to unite all parties after properly showing his strength, which gave him more space to display, thus avoiding risks from Internal strife and threats among those involved.

Of course, in the upcoming negotiations, how to formulate the rules and who can get more benefits from them still depends on whose fists are harder and who has a higher level of negotiation.

In this regard, both Shen Yi and his team members have sufficient confidence in their captain.

King Kong Huo stood up: "I'm going to invite those two team bosses over here."

"There's no need for that." Rourou said suddenly, "They're already here."

There was a knock on the door.

A pleasant female voice sounded: "Excuse me, is Captain Shen Yi there?"
