Volume 19 Chapter 140 Reaching an Agreement

"What did you say?"

"I..." The woman was a little timid at first, but soon she seemed to have regained her courage and said, "I know a secret vein of magic crystal. If you agree to help me, I will tell you where the vein is. But you have to sign an agreement with me, and I will share half of the proceeds from the mining of the veins."

I pondered for a while and then said: "You didn't make the agreement. If you want me to help you, please go find a place with me to talk in detail first. This is not the place to talk."

The woman looked at the corpse on the ground, and then at the big hole I dug in the wall. Then she realized what she was doing, nodded and quickly followed me out of here.

The trip out of town went very smoothly. I am currently in disguise mode. I look like a white player with average to above average strength and average appearance. People who look like this are definitely the least harassed by others when walking around the city. Not to mention the woman following me. Although her strength doesn't look that great, there is a badge hanging on her chest, indicating that she belongs to a guild. It is really not a wise move to provoke a player who has a guild without knowing the size of the other party's guild. Moreover, this woman has average appearance and average equipment, and there is nothing worth causing trouble for others.

After leaving the city, we quickly turned onto a small road. After walking for a while, I turned around and said to the woman: "I am wearing a disguise now. Don't be too surprised when you see my true face. If you see After you see my true face and still decide to cooperate with me, then I will take you to the mountains ahead to talk. If you are not willing, then we will separate here. Is that okay with you?"

The woman was slightly stunned after hearing my words, and then asked: "Are you famous?" I didn't answer her question, but directly removed the disguise. The moment she saw me, the woman was shocked and took several steps back. She didn't stop until she hit a big tree and had no way to retreat. The woman stared at me with her mouth open in surprise for a long time before reacting and pointing at me and asking: "Are you Ziri? The Ziri from the Frost Rose Alliance?"

"Besides me, do you think anyone would dare to dress up like this and wander around in France? I have a semi-hostile relationship with France now. Even if someone pretends to be me, they can only do it in Germany or China, because that way they can still be more deceptive. Benefits. If you pretend to be me and run around in France, isn’t that asking for a fight?”

The woman also reacted after hearing my explanation. If my current image appeared on the streets of France, Lima would definitely be besieged. Of course, I am definitely not afraid of being besieged. In fact, no one can threaten me. But if someone dares to pretend to be me and wander around in France, it will be terrible if someone finds out. With my strength, I can easily break through even if I am surrounded by tens of thousands of people, but the person pretending to be me is definitely not as strong as me. Once surrounded, it is basically equivalent to a death sentence. Therefore, no one will impersonate me in France now.

"It would be better if you were Zi Ri." To my surprise, the woman said: "Before, I was a little worried about whether you had the strength to help me, but now it seems that this question is completely unnecessary."

"Does that mean you want to continue cooperating?" I confirmed.

The woman nodded and said, "Of course."

"Then follow me into the mountain first. Although this is a small road, it is still too close to the city. You may encounter some players passing by here at any time. I don't want to have a meaningless fight." I said and started to fight. With a snap of his fingers, Yeying and Xiaoxue appeared beside me at the same time. I quickly climbed up Ye Ying's back, and then said to the woman: "I'll lend you my magic pet for now. Hurry up."

The woman was obviously a little over-excited when I asked her to ride Xiaoxue up the mountain. As the silver-winged unicorn king, Xiaoxue's appearance is definitely that of a female killer. Women with normal world views and hobbies usually cannot avoid Xiaoxue's lethality. Seeing the white and slightly pink hair on Xiaoxue's neck, which was surprisingly long and wavy, the woman was so excited that she almost pulled out a few hairs and went back to collect them. In the end, if I hadn't urged her, she would have been able to hang around Xiaoxue for a whole day.

Probably because she was unhappy with being 'touched' by the woman, as soon as Xiaoxue found out that the woman was riding on her, she didn't care whether she was sitting firmly or not, she immediately went to full speed, and instantly turned into a white light and disappeared on the road ahead, causing me and Ye Ying could only hear the woman's screams from behind.

"This crazy girl!" After sighing helplessly, I urged Ye Ying to speed up. Although Xiaoxue's speed was also exaggerated, she was running on the ground after all, and Ye Ying's dream shuttle was similar to teleportation. In the blink of an eye, we were beside them, and in the next blink of an eye, we were in the mountains and forests ahead, and Xiaoxue could only run slowly in the direction prompted by the telepathic contact between me and her.

He said he was running here slowly, but in fact the speed could not be slower. It only took Xiaoxue two or three minutes to finish the ten-kilometer distance. When she stopped, I realized that the woman was gone.

"Damn it, Xiaoxue, what did you do? Where is he?"

"It's hanging on the tree behind. I didn't have to go back first." Xiaoxue said this and went straight into the training space. I could only look back along the way Xiaoxue came. It's not bad. Xiaoxue finally got the people to the place, but the unloading was a bit rough. I looked back along the way Xiaoxue came, and after walking a few steps I saw the woman, but she was not on the ground, but hanging on a tree branch above the road just like Xiaoxue said. Yeying and Xiaoxue are both too big, so branches that others can pass through on horseback become dangerous roadblocks for people riding on their backs. Normally Yeying would pay attention to avoid these obstacles when carrying me, but Xiaoxue was obviously losing her temper today, so the woman was in tragedy.

"Hey, are you okay?" After sending Ye Ying back, I stood alone under the tree and looked up at the woman and asked.

"It's okay, get me down quickly!"

"Stand still." I said and suddenly raised my hand, a sword flashed across the branch and broke off, and the woman screamed and fell down. Seeing that she seemed unprepared, I had to help her. Unfortunately, her balance was so poor that I couldn't help her. Fortunately, the branch was not too high from the ground, and the game The physical fitness of the players here is definitely much better than in reality, so falling down from this height is not a big deal.

The woman got up from the ground and said, "Your demon pet's character is really wild."

"High-level familiars are somewhat troublesome." I said, looking around again, and then said: "Okay, this place is remote enough. Let's discuss our specific cooperation agreement."

The woman nodded and said: "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Amanda.g. Alpha. You can call me Amanda."

"You already know who I am, so I won't introduce you anymore. Let's talk about our cooperation agreement. Your purpose is to ask me to help you kill a few people, right?"

"Originally, yes, but I changed my mind after I found out you were Ziri. I hope you can help me kill those people back to Novice Village, and also help me destroy their guild."

"Don't expect to fight back to Novice Village. This is not China. I don't have enough manpower here. It's not that simple to hunt down a person and kill him all the way back to Novice Village. I can't do it in France. That's it. But I have a compromise."

"you say."

"I can... Oh, by the way, how many people do you want to kill?"

The woman lowered her head and counted, "Sixteen."

"so much?"

"Three of them must be severely punished, and the other thirteen can be given a lesson depending on the situation."

I thought for a moment and said: "That's it, I'll help you get those three guys who need severe punishment below level 600, and try to strip them of all their equipment. Although this is a bit different from being killed and returned to the novice village, but With the current average player level of 900 per capita, those who do not have good equipment below level 600 are basically the same as re-training a new account. What do you think?"

Amanda nodded and said, "I accept this."

"Okay. That's it for these three people. My plan for the other thirteen people is to kill them five or six times and then blow up a few of their equipment. That's about it."

Amanda nodded again and said, "I can accept this too."

"In the end, their guild...the main members are all dead anyway, and it doesn't matter whether they can be disbanded or not. But I still help you destroy the guild headquarters of their guild, so that their guild will completely collapse. The entire help This is the plan, do you think there is anything else that needs to be added?"

Amanda shook her head: "This plan is very good, let's do it."

"Since you agree, that's all my help. Now let's talk about the problem of the mine. Are you sure that the mine is the magic crystal mine? Also, you have the quality and reserves of the mine and the difficulty of mining. Are you all clear?"

Amanda obviously knew nothing about mining. When she heard my question, she was immediately stunned. After a long time, she said in a squeaky voice: "I can confirm that it is a magic crystal mine. The quality of the ore is high." I don't know how to read, so I don't know. I don't know the reserves very well, but they should be very large, because the area where I found the ore covers a very large area. The entire cave is almost full of mining areas, and there are many magic crystals. It's directly exposed on the rock wall and can be dug out by just hitting it with something."

"You mean the mining area is not difficult to mine?"

"It shouldn't be high." Amanda said with some uncertainty: "I don't know how you define the difficulty of mining. Anyway, I don't think it is too complicated. Just take people down to the hole and smash them casually with tools. You can dig out a piece in just a few strokes.”

After hearing such an answer, I gave up hope that Amanda could directly provide valid data. After thinking about it, I had to ask step by step: "Do you know how deep the hole is from the ground? Is the cave in a mountainous area or a plain? What is the density of wild monsters nearby? Do you know the type and structure of the rock formations in the mining area?" "

Amanda recalled while saying: "I don't know how deep it is, but I am sure it is at least seven or eight hundred meters deep. The entrance to the cave is in the mountain, and there are many magical beasts nearby, and the level is not low. As for the ground you mentioned What kind of rock formations or something, that one is too professional, I don’t know much about it, but I know that the ground there is very hard, and you need to use a weapon to hit it hard to get the magic crystal off."

"What weapon did you use to hit it?"

Amanda directly handed over the scepter and said: "This is it."

I took the scepter and looked at my subordinate 'Xing', then returned the scepter to her and said with a frown: "Although I haven't seen the mine yet, if your description is correct, I can roughly see it now. It is determined that this is a high-reserve magic crystal mine, but the location of this mining area is quite bad. It is buried too deep. All the ores are buried in hard rock formations, and the nearby mountainous environment means that there is likely to be an underground water system under the ground. Such a mining area It is easy to penetrate the underground river if you are not careful. If you are more unlucky, it is not impossible to dig out the magma directly. In addition, the level of Warcraft near the mining area is high and dense, which is the most unsuitable area for mining. So the mine you are talking about At best, it can be regarded as a medium-value mining area. Because the mining area’s mining profits are average, I can’t split it half and half with you.”

"Then you give me a ratio and I'll see if I can accept it." Amanda obviously knew that she was not a professional, so she didn't think about estimating it herself. Besides, she had a very good mentality and didn't think that what she discovered should be All to myself. After all, she is just a person, and the profits from the mining area are dispensable to a guild like ours, but for her it is absolutely an astronomical figure, so even if it is only 1%, for her it is It is definitely a huge sum of money.

Although our guild will take the dominant position in this mining area, without her information, it will be empty talk to open the mine, so her information must not be ignored. After thinking for a while, I opened my mouth and said: "6% of net profit or 1% of 'gross' profit, you decide. If my estimate is correct, the difference between the two will not be too big."

"That's it?" Amanda asked in surprise.

"You think it's too little?"

"Of course." Amanda said excitedly: "Although I have done nothing but provide information, is this too little?"

"Then how much do you think you should get?"

"10% of net profit."

"7%, this is the limit. Don't bargain with me anymore. If you agree, it will be this ratio. If you don't agree, hire someone else."

Seeing that I looked a little angry, Amanda also became a little anxious. After thinking about it, she finally gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, it's up to you."

“A pleasure to work with.”

After discussing the mineral distribution issue here, the two of us signed a system guarantee agreement, and then I informed the God of War about the matter and asked him to find a way to find someone to mine. Because the mining area is in France, our guild will definitely not be able to dig directly. However, although we ourselves cannot come, our guild originally has two mining areas in France, which are jointly mined with local French guilds. We are responsible for mining, providing equipment and responsible for sales. Anyway, as long as we don't send people from our industry to France, it will be fine. As for this new mining area, it must be mined using the same method. Although it will lose some profits, it is at least safe.

After the magic crystal mining problem is solved, all that's left is to help Amanda deal with the group of people she has to deal with. According to Amanda, she was originally a member of the guild called the Crystal Rat Alliance. Later she discovered this mining area, and then she told a friend in the guild, who was the vice president of the guild. President.

Originally, her idea was for her guild to contact other guilds, and then everyone would work together to mine the mining area. She hoped to get 15% of the subsequent profits. It can be said that this request is not excessive. After all, unlike us, their guild is a French guild. Unlike us, we have to hire an agent guild, so the mining cost is very low. Besides, their guild is actually doing business without capital. After all, their guild is too small to mine on their own. In the end, they have to disclose the information about the mining area and let other guilds mine it. They can do it. In fact, it is equivalent to making money from selling mining area information. From this perspective, Amanda could actually find a guild to sell the information on her own. Although this would be a bit selfish, there is nothing wrong with it. She can now think of telling the people in the meeting the news and sharing it with everyone, which is already very good.

Unfortunately, although her idea was good, she underestimated the temptation of money. In the end, not only did the people in their guild not agree to give her the 15% profit share, they actually tried every means to deceive the location information of the mining area. In the end, they couldn't deceive the information and actually started to rob it openly. Amanda completely broke with the guild because of this incident, but the gang in the guild were like sharks smelling blood. They had been following and attacking her during this period, just to 'force' her to tell the news. come out. As for the people I met today blocking her in an alley, it has happened countless times in the past few days, and every time it ended with Amanda being killed. It can be said that Amanda was "forced" to ask me for help, otherwise she would never be so eager to find someone to cooperate.

After listening to Amanda's narration, I asked her about the specific number of people in their guild and the general abilities of the people she mainly had to deal with. Although Amanda couldn't remember the specific attributes of everyone in their guild, I basically didn't care about this issue after just hearing a general idea. How can a small guild with less than a hundred members in total be able to independently mine? According to Amanda's description, the president of their guild has just passed level 1,000. This kind of person is just an ordinary member in our guild. I don't bother to deal with such a guild personally, so I directly summon Xiaochun, Jingjing, Lingling and Amynis asked the four of them to help me complete this task.

In fact, if I wasn't afraid that Amanda would say that I didn't value our agreement, I would have even planned to send Lingling alone. After all, this guild couldn't even find a single player over level 1,100. Lingling could kill seven in and seven out of their guild by herself. It would be a waste to kill four people. However, it turns out that plans can never keep up with changes. Just when I sent Xiaochun and the others out, and then went to find our guild's agent in France to discuss mining matters, Xiaochun actually sent a distress signal.
