Chapter 494: Discovering that I Was Cheated
On the other hand, after signing the contract, Maris did not take back the communication stone.
Instead, he began to contact his colleagues in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, informing them that he had to leave for a while and would be back in half a year at most.
He did not lie to Morris.
During this period, he was indeed hunting down a strong man from the Time Clan Intelligence Organization with the strong men of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
However, it was not as urgent as he told Morris.
Of course, the most important thing is that he has a wide network of contacts.
Even if there are tasks to be done by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it is not a big deal to take a leave of absence for half a year.
After finishing this matter, his perception ability began to search among the many auras in the communication stone.
Soon he chose a strong friend named Hashi, who was also a friend of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs like Morris.
To go to the distant extragalactic cluster, it is definitely not enough to just listen to Morris' introduction. Just in case, he must ask about the situation of this extragalactic cluster.
"Maris? Why did you suddenly think of contacting me? I heard that your War Department has been busy tracking down the intelligence organizations of the Time Clan and the Samsara Clan recently. Are you in trouble?"
Soon, Hashi answered the call.
"I do need your help. How about it? Are you free?"
Maris was not in a hurry to get to the point. He had many friends. Since he had found the other party, he might as well keep in touch with them.
"Of course I am free. Do you want me to help you kill the strong or collect rare materials? Just tell me what you want!"
Hashi was obviously not as proficient in the ways of the world as Maris. In addition, he owed Maris a big favor, so he patted his chest and expressed his position very straightforwardly.
"It's not a big deal. I just want to ask you something."
Maris explained.
"Except for the secrets that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs strictly prohibits from being spread, I will help you find out as soon as possible even if I don't know."
Hashi said straightforwardly.
"Thank you in advance. I recently got a batch of Jixin Stones. I will go to your Foreign Affairs Department headquarters in a few days. I will send some to you. If you are not here, you will not get any."
Maris smiled.
"Jixin Stones are good things. Even if they are not here, I will rush over."
Hashi said without hesitation.
"Okay, I'll go there half a day in advance."
Maris then got to the point and asked, "I contacted you because I was asked by someone to go to the extragalactic cluster in a few days. Because we only met once, I'm a little worried, so I came to ask you about the situation of this extragalactic cluster."
"Extragalactic cluster?"
Hash was stunned and said with some surprise, "Extragalactic clusters are small places with scarce resources that are so scarce that even if they are given to strong people like you as territories for free, they are too lazy to take them. Even you and I don't like them, let alone our entire Earth Tree Clan."
"The only exception is a small race called the human race. Although this race is weak, it has weapons that can transport troops on a large scale over long distances. It has been specially authorized by the Eighth Elder to become a vassal race of our Earth Tree Clan."
"Yes, yes, yes, I'm talking about the galaxy cluster where this race called the human race is located."
Maris was relieved immediately.
From Hash's tone, he could easily judge that this extragalactic cluster was just as Morris said. With their strength and realm, they would be invincible.
As long as safety is not a problem, the rest will not be a problem.
"Is the extragalactic group you are asked to go to this group?"
Hash's tone changed slightly.
"Yes!"
Maris nodded.
"Hurry up and refuse. It must be Morris who is looking for you. This man is mean and mean. He can't do anything except taking advantage. He has a very bad reputation in our Foreign Affairs Department. The farther you stay away from him, the better."
Hash said affirmatively.
"Really?"
Maris was a little confused.
"It's true. Don't you believe my words?"
Hash said unhappily.
"Okay! I'll stay away from him after I've done what I promised."
Maris immediately regretted it.
He had contacted Hashi many times and had a good relationship with him. Naturally, he believed that Hashi would not lie to him.
If he had known this earlier, he would definitely not agree to help Morris.
After all, it would waste several months of time and he would have to put down the task at hand.
Although the benefits are good, he still values favors more.
With the resources and treasures he has accumulated, he is not short of these resources.
If this Morris is really sarcastic and mean, and doesn't want to suffer any loss, no matter how much you help him, it is estimated that you will not get any favors.
"Don't just finish this thing and not go. If you don't want to ask, I will help you contact Morris to turn down this matter."
Hash said decisively.
"This... has been agreed, and this Morris, who is sarcastic, can still offer a thousand years of territory income as a reward, which means that this matter should be very urgent."
Maris shook his head and said, "Such a groundless rejection will definitely make him extremely dissatisfied, and I'm afraid even you will be jealous."
"What a bullshit thousand years of territory income... Even if it is ten thousand years of territory income, it is not worth much."
Hash sneered, "You don't know that the planets in his territory have been squeezed out by him, and most of the tribesmen have run away."
"The simplest point is that the tax department is ready to send someone to take over the jurisdiction of his territory because the tax revenue in his territory has been at a low level for a long time."
Maris was stunned.
Are the profits so low that the tax department has to send people to take over?
Let alone the benefits of a thousand years of territory, even ten thousand or one hundred thousand years are not worth much resources in his eyes.
Damn it.
Actually got cheated?
He really didn't expect that when a strong person asked him for help, he would deliberately plot against him in order to reduce the reward.
The other party is still a strong man with considerable strength!
The number of strong men he had helped in his life ranged from one thousand to eight hundred. This was the first time he had encountered this situation.
"The second reason is that the gains from the territory are not valuable. He has always been like this, extremely sarcastic and mean. He is the only one who takes advantage, and no one else can take advantage of him."
Hash sighed, "The most important point is that the galaxy group outside the cluster is not compatible with our tree tribe. From the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Maurice is already the third envoy."
"But of the first two envoys, one lost his body, and the second, as a strong man, even suffered the consequences of his soul being destroyed."
"Maurice is good. Although he has never completed his mission, at least he is still alive..."
"Isn't it said that this extra-cluster galaxy group is already invincible at the strong level?"
Maris was a little confused.
"It is invincible. The upper limit of the strength of that outer galaxy group is only one hundred and fifty. But there are always all kinds of weird accidents. The encounters of the first two envoys are the best proof. Morris has not completed the mission until now. , which is also the best proof.”
Hash explained, "That place, if it were the people in our Foreign Affairs Department, they would definitely not go there even if they could afford it, even if it costs a lot of money."
"Maurice was sent there just because he was not very popular. Don't think of him using worthless territory profits to hoodwink you, but with his character, he wouldn't do this unless he ran into big trouble there. "
"In our eyes, the income from his territory is worthless. But when it comes to him, it is already very generous and generous."
Maris was so angry at these words that he almost exploded on the spot.
He has seen shameless people, this is the first time he has encountered such shameless people.
Morris, this bastard, is a powerful man of the Earth Tree Clan, and is considered a prominent figure in the entire Earth Tree Clan.
He actually deceived himself into going to the most dangerous place to help with a completely worthless reward.
Even, in order to prevent himself from regretting after knowing the truth, he actually tricked himself into signing the relevant contract in advance.
