Chapter 360

Then, she continued to ask with some worry: "Li Te, did you go to a casino or a bar? Or, did you go to one of those fancy places? Otherwise, why did you spend your money so fast?"

"No!" Hearing this, Lite blushed and shook his head. "I didn't go to those places. Sister Chelinina, I also kept a lot of the money you gave me before and haven't spent it all. It's just that I have something urgent recently and I need a lot of money..."

"That's it...then I understand." Hearing this, Chelinina nodded, indicating that she understood. "So, Liteuk, can you tell me, sister, what exactly it is and how much it will cost?"

"Well..." Li Te was silent for a while after hearing this, and then told Chelinina. "Okay, I'll tell Sister Chelinina about you, but you can't tell anyone else."

"Of course, I will definitely keep the secret for you, Little Li Te." Seeing Li Te's strange appearance, Chelinina also felt a little maternal inexplicably, and nodded in agreement with Li Te.

"To put it simply, I have been targeted by others recently, and they seem to be trying to assassinate me."

After hearing what Leeteuk said, Chelinina looked surprised.

"But, I heard that the security at Imperial College is very strong."

"Yes, but I happened to have something to do recently and can't stay in Imperial College, so I'm a little worried..."

"Then you can't let Orson accompany you?"

"Well, Orson is also busy with his own affairs, so I'm going to pay a security guard to protect me for a while." Li Te said this, stretched out his fingers and made a sign.

"Ten thousand gold coins?" Chelinina asked doubtfully.

Ten thousand gold coins can indeed hire a very powerful bodyguard in Saint Laurent City.

The turnover of her chamber of commerce during this period was quite large, and all of this was thanks to Orson. Thinking that helping Lite was also equivalent to helping Orson, Chelinina was ready to agree without thinking.

"No, one hundred thousand."

But what Lite said next made Chelinina stunned.

"One hundred thousand

gold! ? "Chelinina looked at Liteuk in shock.

One hundred thousand gold coins, good guy, are you going to ask an eighth-level master to protect your safety?

One hundred thousand gold coins is neither too much nor too little.

For a farmer living in the countryside, even ten gold coins, let alone one hundred thousand gold coins, were a number that he could not even imagine in his life.

Although the total value of the agricultural products produced by a farmer definitely exceeds ten gold coins, after being taxed, he can leave very little wealth.

For a citizen living in the city, ten gold coins are equivalent to a considerable deposit.

And 100,000 gold coins can even allow you to buy one of the towns in a city farther away from the empire and live the life of a mayor.

And to say few is actually quite small.

After all, Louis, the president of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce, and Muhammad, the president of the Ali Chamber of Commerce, had previously made a deal. In order to obtain this secret of the commercial messenger, the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce spent a full three million gold coins.

As long as a city is not particularly remote and poor, the tax collected in the two industries of agriculture and business every year will far exceed this figure. The reason why no businessmen seem to be rich is simply because the city needs to invest in various facilities, institutions and organizations. Just a lot of money to maintain.

But no matter how you put it, for Li Te, the money is indeed a bit too much.

"Li Te, do you know what one hundred thousand gold coins is?" Chelinina said with a hint of seriousness in her tone.

It's not that she can't raise one hundred thousand, now even if Chelinina is asked to raise one million gold coins, she can still raise it.

Of course, if one million gold coins are really collected, it will inevitably have a considerable impact on the operations of the Antika branch of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce, and may even directly shut down the branch.

"I know." Li Te nodded after hearing this. "However, the people who want to kill me this time will only spend more than 100,000 gold coins. If they don't spend more money, I'm afraid..."

When Chelinina heard this, she was beyond shocked.

"Li Te, you mean that someone spent more than 100,000 gold coins to murder you? No, how did you know?" Chelinina discovered a question and asked instead.

"Besides, Lite, do you have something very important that you must go out for? If not, why can't you stay in the academy for a few more days? One hundred thousand gold coins is not a small amount after all..."

"I..." Li Te was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Actually, there is a reason."

She said this, coughed twice, cleared her throat, and then said: "However, it is not convenient for me to tell you the reason why I went out. You just need to know that this incident is really important to me." Very important."

"Anyway, Sister Chelinina, if you are not willing to help me, no one will really be able to help me this time. I will remember these 100,000 gold coins and will repay you in the future."

"..." Chelinina was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Okay." She said, agreeing to Li Teuk's request. "One hundred thousand gold coins, right? Come and get it with me. With so much money, you can only get it with paper tickets."

"It's okay." Lite was relieved to see that Chelinina didn't help him because she doubted him, and his inner affection for Chelinina improved a little.

Of course, what has improved even more is his favorable impression of Orson.

After all, if Orson hadn't helped Chelinina, Chelinina wouldn't have helped her for Orson's sake.

After withdrawing the money from the bank, Leeteuk waved to Chelinina and then said goodbye to her.

"Sister Chelinina, let's see you later~ I'll treat you to a meal in Antica after the holidays~"

"Okay." Chelinina smiled and nodded, then sent Li Te away.

Then, she lowered her head and pondered something. After a while, she raised her head and walked in the direction of Imperial College.

…

After Li Te got the money, he came to Oak Street and walked into the Orchid Tavern.

"Hello, I'm the one who came yesterday." Lite came to the second floor. On the stairs to the third floor, he saw the half-orc girl guarding the door.

The other party didn't say anything, just nodded, and then led Li Teuk inside.

After entering the room, Liteuk saw the killing angel covered in a cloak.

"Oh? You're here so quickly. It seems like you've raised the money?"

"Yeah." Lit nodded and sat on the sofa.

"Can you agree to my terms now?"

"Of course." Killing Angel nodded. "We never have trouble with money, just a hundred thousand, Mulder

Rick's head is your toy. "

"Okay, this is what you said." Li Te said and handed the money to Killing Angel. "Your reputation has always been very good. I hope you won't let me down this time."

The other party looked at the paper tickets placed on the table and did not deliberately click them. If you take advantage of this kind of transaction, you will die.

"I know, okay, you can lead the orcs at the door now." Killing Angel said, "Oh, by the way, her code name is Lion, you can call her Lion, or you can call her Big Orange or whatever, it’s up to you.”

"Wait a minute..." Hearing this, Li Te looked at the Killing Angel with some confusion.

"I have seen the person at the door before. Are you sure she has the ability to kill Mudrick? You must know that Mudrick is at the seventh level..."

"Mudrick's seventh level is different from her seventh level." Killing Angel smiled. "Guest, do you know something? Within the seventh level, there are three, six, and nine levels. Mudrick can only be regarded as the seventh level who has just entered the seventh level, while Shi Shi's strength is at the peak of the seventh level. It can be said that she is only one step away from the eighth level. The finishing touch.”

"I heard you boasted that it was amazing. What if you fail to complete the task by then?"

"How about we give you a full refund if you can't complete it?"

"Do you think I still have life to take it at that time?"

"Of course, after all, no matter how weak the lion is, she can't possibly endanger your life as a guest."

Li Teuk nodded after hearing this.

Then she walked out of the room and came to the door.

"Lion, right?"

"Yes." The half-orc girl nodded. "This is my code name, what's wrong?"

"You have a new mission now. Follow me and kill Mudrick tomorrow." Lite said.

"Huh?" When the girl heard this, she tilted her head and showed a puzzled look. Then, she opened the door and glanced at the killing angel under the cloak.

After seeing the other party nodding, she closed the door and backed out.

"I understand, what's the location tomorrow?"

"There is an open space in the forest on the outskirts of the city. Anyway, follow my arrangements tomorrow."

"Okay." The lion nodded.

…

After Leeteuk saw the lion that drove Mudrick away that night, he had an idea in his mind.

Since the other party can hire mercenaries to kidnap his parents, why can't he also hire others to help him deal with things?

With this idea in mind, Li Te came to Orchid Tavern that day, and the reply she got from the Killing Angel was positive.

As long as they have money, they will accept any job.

Then, Li Te asked politely for the price, and the other person found out that it was a sum of 100,000 gold coins.

After all, he was going to kill a seventh level strong man.

In the entire empire, there are not many strong people of the seventh level.

You know, a well-known and powerful man like Luka, the president of the Imperial Academy, is only an eighth-level magician himself.

Although the entry threshold for teachers in charge of combat subjects at Imperial Academy is level seven, in fact most of the teachers are only at level seven.

There are a total of 200 classes in the four grades of Imperial Academy, and among them, at most, no more than ten eighth-level teachers in charge of combat can be found.

Among them, there is a fixed placement for each class in each grade.

Hekatia, Lite and Lianka's teacher, and Tris, Orson and Olivia's teacher, are two of the ten.

It can be said that among the tens of millions of people in the entire empire, there are only more than a thousand people above level seven. This ratio can be said to be one in ten thousand.

From this, we can also see the terror of the Imperial Academy. There are more than a thousand seventh-level masters, more than two hundred of whom gather to teach in the Imperial Academy. The Imperial Academy alone has gathered more than one-tenth of the masters in the empire.

One hundred thousand gold coins, a seventh-level powerhouse is actually worth that much money...

Li Te thought about the expenses of the Imperial College and suddenly became in awe of the Imperial College.

Unexpectedly, I was surrounded by millions of gold coins on weekdays.

Later, Leeteuk said that he could not afford that much money, and Killing Angel was also very accommodating, saying that Leeteuk could raise the money first, and it would not be too late to come back when the money was raised.

Then, Li Te thought that Orson had accidentally mentioned that Chelinina would come to Saint Laurent City for business in the past two days, and then he took the initiative to find Chelinina and took 100,000 gold coins from her.

…

Time goes back to the present, the lion and Mudrick are fighting. As a half-orc, the lion is indeed as fierce as a ** in fighting. Mudrick was suppressed by the lion for a while.

At this time, Litt believed that the lion was indeed much stronger than Mudrick.

Before, Litt thought that Mudrick did not dare to fight with the lion because Virgil had consumed too much physical strength. Now it seems that even if Mudrick is well fed and rested, he still can't beat the lion.

"Heh..."

As the sound of metal clashing resounded through the forest, the birds on the book were startled and flew away, and Mudrick and the lion pulled apart briefly.

Mudrick looked at the lion with only mockery in his eyes.

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that you would be willing to be ordered by such a person." Mudrick tried to provoke the lion, but the other party was unmoved.

After adjusting his pace, the lion rushed up again, and the long sword in his hand slashed through the air, and a sword energy swung towards Mudrick with the momentum of breaking through the air.

Mudrick also swung a sword and cut off the oncoming sword energy, but at this time, the lion had already approached very close and was about to attack Mudrick.

Mudrick had no time to defend himself and could only dodge to the side, but his clothes were still cut by the lion, and blood slowly flowed down the slit of the clothes.

"Is that all?" The lion looked at Mudrick and mocked him instead.

"Tsk." Mudrick frowned. The wound on his waist was not deep. Fortunately, he dodged in time and was only scratched a little. The sword did not penetrate the flesh and blood much.

For him, this kind of injury is almost the same as no injury.

It's just that in the high-intensity activity of fighting, every action of his will involve this small wound, and the nerves will send waves of slight pain.

Compared with the severe pain from the tiger's mouth after the knife fight with the lion just now, this small injury is nothing at all. It's just bleeding, the clothes are torn, and it looks a little embarrassed.

"How much did this guy give you? I'll give you double, let's kill him together." Mudrick said this, trying to persuade the lion to surrender.

"You are a mercenary, you should know the principle of mission priority, right?" The lion said this, without stopping the action of attacking.

Another round of metal clashing sound came.

The so-called principle of mission priority is the behavior of the mercenary industry to prevent unethical mercenaries from taking both ends of the money.
