"Are our colleagues in Yedi City so rude?"
Xiao Xiao looked at the other party's reply and felt a little confused for a moment. After a while, he replied: "Don't get me wrong."
"I am really Xiao Xiao from Black Gate City, but I haven't been certified yet."
"..."
The other party's reply was still very fast, with a sarcastic tone between the lines: "I am really Qin Shihuang, hurry up and make money!"
Xiao Xiao suddenly felt a little speechless. He turned to look at Yang Jia and Lin Bo, but saw that they were also looking blankly. He had to pause slightly and type the words to each other seriously: "Then, what can I do? Do you have to do it to believe it?”
"?"
Seeing that Xiao Xiao was so persistent, the other party was probably a little surprised. He replied a little slower this time, as if he was thinking about it.
After a while, the message came back: "Ask the soil-absorbing lady to come over and talk to me!"
"Sucking dirt?"
Xiao Xiao was startled for a moment and subconsciously looked at Yang Jia.
But Yang Jia was also slightly startled, and then suddenly realized, "Yes, Ruanruan."
"She is quite famous on this forum because she... posted a video before, which caused a lot of discussion on the forum, so many people are familiar with her. With her testifying, Ye Di City should be I won’t doubt your identity anymore.”
"..."
Xiao Xiao found it a bit magical: "Ruanruan still has such a side?"
Yang Jia glanced at Xiao Xiao calmly and said: "She is the most famous person in Black Gate City in this forum. Of course, there are red-eyed Ling Ping, Qiao Di Lao Zhou, and the Orochi sisters, these veteran strangers , basically have their own accounts on the forum, but the red-eyed Lingping is an old-school gentleman and doesn’t like the Internet very much, so he rarely interacts with people on it.”
"As for Lao Zhou under the bridge, this man is too careful. Even we don't know what his account is."
"The Orochi sisters are also quite popular, but they mainly engage in live broadcasting and are not part of the intelligence circle."
"As for Xiaosi..."
“…Normally, I can’t afford the Internet!”
"..."
"It turns out that I don't know enough about my classmates in Black Gate City..."
Xiao Xiao felt it was eye-opening after hearing this, and then he picked up his cell phone and called Ruanruan to tell him the current problem.
"What's up?"
Ruanruan's side seemed a bit chaotic. From time to time, there was the sound of whips, dogs barking, pigs barking, and men's moans of ecstasy. When they first answered the phone, they seemed a little busy, but after hearing Xiao Xiao's words, they immediately became vigilant. The surrounding environment becomes quiet:
"Have you entered the forum too?"
"..."
"Is it weird?"
Xiao Xiao asked in surprise: "What happened there just now?"
"Cultivate hobbies and learn professional knowledge..."
Ruanruan answered simply, "It's a simple matter. I'll talk to him later, but just wait a moment..."
"...I'll delete the post first."
"..."
Now I am anxious to talk to Ye Di City about the fourth element. Is there any post that needs to be deleted in such a hurry?
Xiao Xiao felt strange in his heart, but he didn't push him away.
However, it seemed that Luan Rou's movements were still very fast, and it didn't feel like it lasted long. The Qin Shihuang just now...no, it was the ghost of Night City, so he sent a lot of messages over at once, and he was so nervous that he seemed Setting off firecrackers:
"Fuck..."
"Are you really a pervert, Xiao Da?"
【withdraw】
"Are you really President Xiao of Black Gate City?"
"Mysterious and cruel Midnight Cowherd, professional interrogator, dog lover, tattoo master..."
"..."
"What is this all about?"
Xiao Xiao's eyes were a little confused, thinking about you withdrawing in front of me, and thinking that I didn't see it?
But I could only reply honestly: "It's me."
"Although I don't quite understand what you said next, I am indeed Xiao Xiao from Black Gate City."
"..."
"I understand, arrogant arrogance, right?"
I can feel the enthusiasm of this colleague from Ye Di City between the lines. He typed countless times faster: "Really, I am your fan. I am particularly fascinated by your usual style and unique temperament. I am very attracted to you." You are also full of praise for your hobbies, especially the story of your huge bet with the two major organizations of Hell and Dante has spread throughout the entire stranger circle."
"All of us like...no, admire you."
"Before, we wanted to propose to the president that we go to Black Gate City for team building..."
"If the president hadn't been worried that we wouldn't be able to come back, this matter would have been settled."
"..."
It seems that what Yang Jia and the others said before was good. This big gamble has really made themselves famous.
Although Xiao Xiao felt that the other party's words were a bit strange, and he didn't quite understand what he meant by certain things, but seeing the other party being so polite, he couldn't help but feel a little better. He pursed his lips slightly to prevent himself from laughing, and typed rationally on the keyboard. Hitting:
"thanks, thanks."
"So, the deal I just told you..."
"..."
"Deal? What deal?"
The other party was obviously a little surprised, but before Xiao Xiao could explain, he responded again and seemed to have climbed up the stairs:
"Oh, special item replacement..."
"I'll report to the president first."
"It's strange to say that, President Xiao, a big man like you, how could you think of doing business with a small place like our Night City? Our city is not half as big as Black Gate City, right? The Hell Organization and the Dante Organization usually They all look down on us..."
"..."
"This guy is pretty good at chatting..."
Xiao Xiao had never realized before that he could be considered a big shot in the circle of strangers.
However, after thinking about it, it became clear.
Is this a big gift from the hell organization to me?
The terror of the Hell Organization is recognized, but in this bet, the Hell Organization surrendered to itself and even openly declared that from now on, Black Gate City will exist as a "Hell Forbidden Zone" and no member of the Hell Organization will be allowed to do so. Will take a step forward, although Xiao Xiao understands that this is actually related to certain plans of the hell organization and their unique personalities, and does not represent strength.
But in the eyes of others, they don’t think much of it.
Maybe some people really think that it is because of their strength that the hell organization does not dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool.
Do you need to explain this misunderstanding?
Of course not.
So he sent a direct message: "Because your city has a special thing we need."
The other party replied: "What?"
Xiao Xiao glanced at Lin Bo and Yang Jia next to him, and then gently said: "Don't put out your heart."
This time, the other party paused for a long time and did not reply.
In the office, Lin Bo and Yang Jia were also waiting attentively for news from each other. During an online exchange, the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.
Until the other party's message appeared: "Don't extinguish your heart?"
"A-level taboo things..."
"It's not a great thing. With your strength and status, why do you want it so clearly?"
"..."
Xiao Xiao did not rush to reply this time, but paused. Sure enough, Yang Jia behind him thought for a moment and patted his shoulder.
"Black Gate City Defense System."
"..."
"Each special item has its own unique ability. Sometimes, they will restrain each other and offset each other's influence, but there are also some that can be more effective when paired together, just like the one who was used before. The man favored by death possesses terrible pain and influence, but it is uncontrollable. It is a special weapon that does not distinguish between friend and foe."
"However, when you use other elements to influence him, this power becomes controllable and the power is even more amazing."
"This is the embryonic state of the defense system."
"..."
Yang Jia whispered to him: "You don't need to tell the bottom of the night that the fourth element that belongs to you is yours. Just go to them to exchange it in the name of building the defense system of Black Gate City. In addition, just now, I also asked Mr. Ye On the forum, we posted some posts about purchasing other special elements, so that we can avoid the other party knowing our true plans and creating complications."
"The fourth element has a very special role for strangers, and not everyone is happy to see it."
"..."
Yang Jia was very thoughtful, Xiao Xiao thought to himself silently, and replied truthfully:
"Black Gate City Security Defense System."
"We're sourcing specific elements from cities, and Unquenchable Heart is one of the elements we need."
"..."
"Oh, that's easy."
Night Ghost's replies were all relaxed: "I've asked the president, but it's not something important in itself."
"You can take it away if you want. We can also make friends with Black Gate City by the way."
"..."
"So smooth?"
Xiao Xiao and Yang Jia both had slightly relaxed expressions.
Lin Bo, who was standing behind Xiao Xiao, suddenly had a strange expression on his face, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.
Xiao Xiao immediately said: "Then what do you think is the right deal?"
The other party's message came in quickly: "Just give us some points..."
"...For example, 150,000?"
"..."
When Xiao Xiao saw the first reply from the other party, he was already a little surprised. One word had already been entered.
Then he saw the other person's second sentence, and he was immediately confused.
Silently deleted the word "good", and then slowly tapped the other person with a "?"
The replies from the ghosts at the end of the night all contained a smile:
"Yes, President Xiao, please rest assured. I have already begged our President for mercy on the phone just now. This is a friendship price."
"One hundred and fifty thousand, you can redeem it for the Immortal Heart."
"We can even arrange for someone to send you to Black Gate City, guaranteed."
"Look, when will the transfer be made?"
"..."
"..."
"Why should I transfer money to you?"
Xiao Xiao's heart suddenly became angry, and his intuition of the seriousness of the world was greatly impacted.
An A-level taboo item costs 150,000 points?
What kind of ridiculous joke is this?
Turning to look at Yang Jia, he saw that Yang Jia's face was a little ugly, and he said in a low voice: "They really dare to bid. Normally, the value of B-level special things is only in the range of several thousand, and although A-level is already calculated It’s a taboo, the price has skyrocketed, but at most it’s only in the range of 10,000 to 30,000, which is already an exaggerated number, and they actually asked for nearly ten times the high price?”
Xiao Xiao understands this deeply.
The special items he had on hand were either stolen or strengthened by himself.
I haven't redeemed it directly yet.
But through some other things, we can also roughly understand the value of such special items. For example, the Butcher has reached level A after being strengthened by 10,000 points. Even the will of the city immediately acted on it. Heartbroken.
He once gave him the option of purchasing it for 30,000 points.
From this, it can be inferred that A-level taboo items are most likely to be worth tens of thousands of points.
Is the unquenchable heart very powerful?
To me, he is the fourth element and has a special meaning.
But for others, it is most likely just an ordinary A-level taboo item. The other party dares to ask for a price of 150,000?
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Xiao Xiao slowly replied: "Is it too high?"
"Not high, not high..."
The other party quickly replied to the message, and Xiao Xiao seemed to have a playful and sarcastic temperament in his eyes:
"President Xiao, you are very famous now. In the current stranger circle, no one knows that you alone defeated the Hell Organization and the Dante Organization. However, you are equally famous because of your cooperation with these two organizations. You made a bet with the Hell Organization alone, right? You’ve earned no less than 100,000 points from the Hell Organization alone, right? Plus the Dante Organization, which is equally famous and has a richer family background..."
"A conservative estimate is that you earned three hundred thousand from this vote?"
"Haha, we in Yedi City are willing to be friends with you, as long as you are half as long as you are, isn't it too much?"
"..."
"Where is this going?"
Xiao Xiao didn't know what to say for a moment. He did make a hundred thousand from the hell organization.
But the Dante Organization?
Equally famous, and with a stronger family background?
Feeling angry for no reason, he suddenly turned his head and glared at Lin Bo.
Lin Bo was smiling secretly when he suddenly saw Xiao Xiao's gaze on him. His face immediately tightened and he shouted angrily:
"Night End City is really too much!"
"..."
Xiao Xiao had no time to scold him for the time being, and was just thinking about how to reply, saying that he would not do this deal or something else.
I saw the ghost at the end of the night knocking over the message again: "Hey, in addition, don't threaten me and say that I don't want it anymore. I know that this special element must be very important to you. Otherwise, for such a high-ranking big shot like you, Even the Hell Organization and the Dante Organization don't take it seriously, so why come here to negotiate a deal with such an inconspicuous place as our Night City?"
"City defense system?"
"Oh, we all believe in other cities' construction, and we can understand it."
"But Black Gate City?"
"Are you kidding me? The Black Gate City is now a restricted area of hell. Not even the hell organization dares to step into it. Which blind pirate or aberration force dares to invade? So we don't believe this understanding. I'm just sure , this special element must be very important to you. It just so happens that you don’t have this point on your body. If you bring it for 150,000 yuan, you can take it away..."
"You are very powerful, but no matter how powerful you are, it has nothing to do with us in Yedi City."
"If you want to keep your heart alive, just collect the points honestly..."
"..."
"..."
Xiao Xiao didn't know what to say for a moment.
The opponent's intuition is still very keen, and the lion is not burdened when he opens his mouth.
However, if the other party only pays a slight premium or even doubles the original value of this special item, he still thinks it is understandable. Who can bear this if he directly increases the price by nearly ten times? Come on...
Is this taking the opportunity to blackmail?
He suddenly became angrier as he thought about it, and the corners of his mouth tightened slightly.
Lin Bo, who was next to him, also seemed very angry and said angrily: "These guys in Yedi City are simply crazy. When our Dante organization made deals with them before, we were also blackmailed severely by them. In other cities At any rate, I am still worried about whether I should ask our Dante organization for help and give some face if there is a problem. Only people in this city want money rather than their lives!"
"President Xiao, I can't bear to do this to me!"
"You can even take advantage of Dante's organization, how can you still be ripped off by these guys?"
"..."
"I'm holding back..."
Listening to his indignant words, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but turn around and glare at him.
This guy has the nerve to complain here.
Hasn't he ever thought that this is actually his problem?
Who would have thought that a divine messenger from Dante's organization only has a few dozen points in his entire net worth?
Fortunately, he was so proud at the time...
However, it was difficult for Xiao Xiao to explain this matter. After all, he lured the Hell Organization to follow suit and place a heavy bet. The reason was that the divine envoy of the Dante Organization was gambling his wealth with himself, the newly promoted president of Black Gate City. If the Hell Organization knew about it, The truth of the matter...
……hiss! toothache!
Facing Xiao Xiao's displeased look, Lin Bo suddenly felt guilty and turned his head without speaking.
"It seems that this transaction will be difficult to complete easily..."
Xiao Xiao didn't want to read any more messages from the other party, so he closed the page directly.
I was really angry, but in the state of explosive thinking, I adjusted my mood in less than a second and calmly turned to look at Yang Jia:
"The only way to get this special element is through them?"
"..."
When Yang Jia saw Xiao Xiao like this, he suddenly felt a little worried. He felt worried about not knowing what this guy was going to do.
Lin Bo next to him, on the other hand, immediately replied: "Of course not."
"In fact, although we strangers are in different cities and different organizations, the mysterious source that affects us is not the same, but the points are common to all cities. This special element, the simplest method Naturally, it is through the strangers in Yedi City, who exchange it and then trade it, but if we go to Yedi City, we can also trade directly."
"... Of course, only the points can be used directly. For forbidden items of A level and above, the city will usually set restrictions. Only foreigners with a city knight contract or above can redeem them, so we need an intermediary."
"...But I guess it shouldn't be very difficult."
"..."
Yang Jia frowned as she listened and wanted to say something, but closed her mouth again.
She is a Branded One and does not need the fourth element, but she also understands the importance and scarcity of the fourth element.
Lin Bo's purpose was obvious, but what happened was that what this guy told was the truth.
Xiao Xiao, on the other hand, looked at his mailbox, which was still flashing messages, and pursed his lips slightly.
"It seems that this trip is really necessary..."
