Chapter 139: No one is a fuel-efficient lamp

"If President Ziri thinks it's good, just move here!" Philindil responded to my words in an unusually provocative manner.

"I'm not lucky enough to enjoy such a life!" I said, opening the gauze curtain and walking to the back.

"President Ziri is really good at joking." Philindil walked over with a sweet smile, while the female archer on the side was so shocked that she couldn't even speak.

"No kidding." I suddenly corrected my tone. "Let's talk about something serious with you."

"Oh? Business? Is there anything I can do for you?"

"You're really right." I sat down on the bed where Philindil was sitting just now without any politeness, and pulled the fruit basket on the ground next to me, picked up one at random, and started to nibble on it. "I'm in some trouble."

"Is there any trouble here that you can't solve?"

"How do you say this? I'm not omnipotent, of course there will be troubles that can't be solved. In fact, it's not a big deal, it's just that it's troublesome, and I happen to be in a hurry and can't do it myself for the time being, so I want to find someone You can borrow some people to use."

"Borrowing people?" Philindil rolled his eyes and immediately replied enthusiastically: "I have people, but that bitch Marilyn has been keeping a close eye on me recently. If I second a large number of people, What should I do if she takes the opportunity to trouble me?"

"This is for you." I knew before I came that Philindil wouldn't be so easy to talk to. Although she doesn't dare to offend me now, she hasn't reached the point where she can be kneaded by me at will.

Philindil took the thing I threw and looked at it, but he didn't understand what it was. "What's this?"

"Emergency communication crystal. This is connected to the transmission device of my guild's Essinger Mobile Fortress. Whenever you crush it, my Essinger Mobile Fortress will be transmitted to your destination within thirty seconds. Above. If Marilyn takes the opportunity to cause trouble, just crush it and I'll teach her a lesson for you."

Philindil was obviously not very satisfied after hearing what I said. After all, what she just meant was to get some benefits from me. Of course she knew that Marilyn would not really take advantage of this moment to hit her. Marilyn is not stupid, she is counting on my support now. If she takes advantage of my opportunity to borrow people from Philindil to attack Philindil, wouldn't it be like slapping me in the face? She wouldn't do such a stupid thing like pushing me into Philindil's arms. Since Philindil knows this, she naturally also knows that the opportunity I gave her to call for rescue is not given, so she will not agree so easily.

"This thing is good, but if Marilyn just comes to humiliate me, I can't call your mobile city over, right?"

I knew that Philindil wouldn't agree so easily, so I didn't expect that thing to fool her. The thing I threw out before was just to get her to lower the price. Now I pretended to be thinking and said: "That's it! It's really inappropriate if that's the case. It's a bit of a fuss to bring the mobile fortress over just to have a quarrel. Otherwise, let's do this!" I said again He took out a scroll from his body and threw it to her. "How about this?"

Philindil took the scroll, opened it and looked at it, then his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he put the thing away with satisfaction. "I feel relieved with this. So what level of manpower do you need? Approximately how many are needed?"

"The level doesn't have to be too high, but it doesn't have to be too low either. A thousand levels will do. It will take about a thousand people. It can be returned to you in four or five days at most, or in one day at least."

Philindil frowned, because this number was actually very large. In fact, I was just symbolically speaking like a lion. Anyway, Philindil would definitely make a counteroffer. If I underquote, wouldn't it be inconvenient for her to counteroffer?

"I can't find all these people at once! I'll give you three hundred at most."

"Three hundred is too little. Can you think of a way to help me make up the money?"

"Four hundred, no more!"

"Four hundred is not enough! We need at least eight hundred, any less will not be enough!"

"But I really can't make it together! How about this! How about I transfer my private reserve team to you and barely make up 500 people for you?"

"Seven hundred, we can't have any less!"

"Okay, okay, everyone gives in, six hundred."

"Okay, six hundred is six hundred!"

The moment we reached an agreement, there was only a thud. Philindil and I turned around and realized that the female archer had fainted. It is estimated that what she saw today was a little beyond her understanding, and she fainted due to overuse of her brain. It sounds like that too. In the understanding of French players, the Temple of Light is basically a top-level institution, but now the boss of the Temple of Light, the Goddess of Light, is bargaining with me like buying cabbage. This scene is really shocking.

After the agreement was reached, I immediately took the 600 angels back to the location of the ruins. As for the female archer, I took her with me. Her companions were all in the ruins. It was unreasonable not to take her with me. This time was different from before. Because there were so many people, we used the anti-soldier advance method to conduct an investigation-style search. Not to mention, all the monsters and bosses we had never encountered before were revealed. However, facing the angel team with all members of level 1,000, these monsters and bosses were unable to exert any advantage at all. They almost appeared immediately. Got killed.

With more people, work efficiency will naturally increase. We quickly completed the search on the first floor. During this period, some angels found some strange things. I will go to see these suspicious things after they report them. As for the work of pathfinding, I No need to do it. After wandering around the ruins for several hours, we finally found the lost team, but by this time only the captain and another swordsman were dead, and everyone else was basically dead. Without my presence, their team would be unable to move forward here at all, and the breakthroughs in almost every passage were paved with people.

The female archer was also very happy to find the captain, but their mission was probably hopeless because I had no time to help them complete it. "By the way, where is the Stone of Commandment you mentioned?"

The captain shook his head: "Not here."

"I know it's not here. I'm just asking you how to get there."

"I don't know. In fact, we don't even know where we are now. We hit several traps by mistake on the way here. The road now is completely different from when we came in. How can we get out without you leading the way?" Do not know at all!"

"Really!" I said helplessly to an angel nearby: "You continue to search here. If there is anything suspicious, record it first and tell me when I come back." The Stone of Commandment is a big deal, and this thing is very important to these things. They are all important to the lower gods, and Philindil is certainly one of them. I dare not ask her men to help me get the Stone of Commandment. This is basically the same as asking a dog to help you pick up the meat buns.

They took the last three remaining people of the team back to the exit, and then walked back according to their memories. Soon they arrived at the place where they said the Stone of Commandment was placed. However, the situation this time was different from before. It was not an encounter. I arrived at many agencies, but it went smoothly with some exceptions.

"Do you feel like something is staring at us?" I asked suddenly while walking well.

"Huh?" The three of them looked around for a while before answering me. "Is there nothing?"

I frowned and continued walking forward, but my pace became faster and faster. The captain suddenly shouted: "You have passed by. The Stone of Commandment is on the side wall."

I didn't answer, but suddenly accelerated forward and rushed forward. At the same time, I unsheathed the blade claws of both hands. I only heard two clicks and pops. My blade claws suddenly stopped, and then drops of dark red liquid suddenly appeared. On my blade claw and along the blade of the blade gradually dripping towards the ground. Seeing this, no matter how stupid they were, the three people behind us knew that something was indeed following us, but they could only draw their weapons and be on guard because they couldn't see anything at all.

"Ah!" The female archer suddenly screamed and fell out. A huge bloody hole suddenly appeared on her chest. The blood sprayed all over the attacker like a fountain. As a result, there was a bloody hole in the air for no reason. human form.

"Rat." I pulled out the blade claw and flicked my hand back. A flying knife spanned the distance between us like lightning and accurately nailed the invisible guy's head. The guy staggered back while covering the dagger on his head. After two steps, he finally fell down with a thud, and the invisibility on his body was automatically lifted.

The female archer and the two people were stunned when they saw the appearance, because the person lying on the ground was not a monster, but an angel, a handsome male angel wearing a gorgeous armor. And just when the angel died, the invisible creature that I penetrated to the core finally stopped struggling and stopped showing signs of life. With his death, the invisibility effect was automatically lifted, and this was actually an angel.

"President Ziri, isn't this an angel?" the captain looked at me in surprise and asked.

I nodded and walked over and lifted up the angel's body on the ground, then pulled out the flying knife stuck in the guy's forehead. Then I turned the young guy over and rummaged around on his back, and finally I pulled him off. A completely invisible transparent feather was pulled out from the base of his wings. If it wasn't stained with blood, no one would be able to see it.

"It is indeed Shadow Angel."

"Huh? Shadow Angel?"

"The Special Forces of the Temple of Light, a special force that is kept completely secret from the outside world. All its members are this kind of angels. They have the ability to be perfectly invisible and have strong combat effectiveness. Unfortunately, they are not qualified to deal with me."

"But President Ziri, aren't you the leader of that group of angels? Why...?"

I didn't answer the captain's words, but said to myself: "Hmph... It seems that this woman Philindil needs to be dealt with!"
