Big Beard and the others naturally expressed their thanks again, Hou Ying said with a smile: "Since the hidden danger has been eliminated, our base can't leave us for too long, let's send everyone to a safe place and let's say goodbye."
"How is this possible? Then, what about that lightning zombie?" the bearded man asked immediately.
Hou Ying raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Although I sympathize with your situation, unfortunately, our team belongs to our base, and the mission content we received did not solve the trouble for you. Sorry, we must follow our The base operates according to the rules, so we can't meddle in our own business."
"This, this... but you guys clearly—"
"Hey," Hou Ying was surprised again, "What happened to us before? It seems that we never promised you anything, right?"
Bearded: "..."
Yes, you are absolutely right.
He didn't expect the team of supernatural beings from Huaguo to be so ruthless. Seeing that everyone else was following Hou Ying's lead, he couldn't get up or down, and his face turned red. Seeing this, the other people around him couldn't help being puzzled, and asked aloud if there was any unpleasant conflict just now? As soon as the bearded man explained to them, these people immediately reacted violently and yelled.
Zhou Tianyi sneered and said: "Don't make any mistakes, firstly, we have no employment relationship with you, secondly, we have not made any agreement, thirdly, hehe, since we have only known each other for a day, what are you talking about? ... Are you a bit too self-indulgent, we are not so familiar with you. "
He also hated the faces of these people, even though they did not pose any threat to Hou Ying and his own people, but the fact that they treat them as his dogs and dogs is really not flattering.
Wu Nan also smiled and said: "I'm really sorry, we are the supernatural beings of Huaguo and the team of the Yellow River Base, and we have no obligation to consider for you. Now that the threat of the Devil's Stone has been lifted, these zombies have also lost the possibility of mutation and can no longer be moved. to our territory, our mission is accomplished."
Those white-skinned men who couldn’t understand were still talking excitedly and spattering their tongues and saliva. The bearded man calmed them down with a deep voice, and turned around to apologize sincerely to them: “I’m really sorry, we got carried away before. But, we I really need your help, just think that we are re-employing you now, if there are any conditions, as long as we can afford it, please tell me directly."
Hou Ying said: "It's too serious."
I have to say that this bearded man is still somewhat scheming.
Wu Huan was not as polite as Hou Ying, and directly sneered and said, "Do you know the basic conditions for our S-rank team to send out missions? One, all mission proceeds belong to the S-rank team, and two, the rewards must be paid in advance. As for the remuneration, that is a number you can't even imagine, can you be the master?"
He naturally had the same nostrils as Li Hou's team, and it could be seen that Hou Ying and the others were also very interested in that lightning zombie, but even if they were going to help, the higher the air, the better.
Why doesn't the bearded man understand this
After thinking for a moment, he said: "I can make the decision. I am the son of the leader of our base. As long as we can afford the price, I will be sure to persuade my father to agree to your request."
"Oh, that's disrespectful." Wu Nan looked at him with a half-smile, "Then, Mr. Chief Heir, what kind of reward do you think should be paid for the task of protecting your base from destruction?"
The bearded man pondered for a moment, and said: "I can do my best to persuade my father to take out one-third of the base's crystal nucleus inventory as a reward for everyone."
Zhou Tianyi: "Don't fool us with vague concepts. Who knows how much of your crystal core inventory is left. In my opinion, we should set the amount and sign the terms. After all, I don't have much confidence in your ability and reputation."
The bearded man: "It's a bit hurtful for you to say that."
"Don't talk about feelings, we really don't have such a need." Wu Nan interrupted.
The bearded man knew that the matter had come to an end, and their previous actions really made these people unforgivable, so he could only compromise and agree to their request and ask them to report a specific amount.
Wu Nan glanced at Hou Ying and Li Xuanyuan who didn't intend to speak out, and continued: "The last time our team took action was to treat the leader of the Chuanyuan base and pay 10 million crystal cores. I wonder how many people your base has?"
Surprised, the bearded man suppressed the anxiety in his heart and replied, "There are more than 36,500 people in total."
Wu Nan understood, nodded and said: "We don't make things difficult for you, why don't we give a discount and pay 10,000 crystal cores per person, how about it?"
That is more than 300 million crystal nuclei? !
The bearded man didn't expect them to say such an astronomical figure, and his expression changed immediately.
Wu Nan: "Why, this is considered embarrassing for you? Does Mr. Heir think that the lives of people in your base are not worth 10,000 crystal nuclei?"
The bearded man tightened his face and said, "But this is beyond our solvency..."
Hou Ying said in a timely manner: "Then how much ability do you have?"
The bearded man opened his mouth and wanted to cut off that number by a zero, but he also knew that this cooperation would definitely collapse. Thinking of the fellow comrades who were besieged by zombies so that their lives were in danger, the bearded man became ruthless and said: "Fifty million! Crystal nucleus, pay back in three installments, is that okay?"
They really can't be as rich and powerful as the survivor base in Huaguo. The first and most important reason is: the population of their country is scattered, and the total population of the eastern part is just the number of people passing through a province. Such crystal nuclei can't be dug out.
Wu Huan said: "Cut half in one go, you really know how to do business."
Hou Ying smiled, and said in a relaxed tone: "Please don't mind, my teammates like to joke. How about this, a one-time payment of 10 million crystal cores as the reward for this mission, in addition we get All the crystal nuclei and other things we are interested in are owned by our team and Mr. Wu Huan's team. What do you think?"
Compared to the previous number that cost them half their lives, this equally difficult number has already made the bearded man heave a sigh of relief.
He agreed without much hesitation, but said that their base also needs to be dispatched, so they can only pay 5 million crystal cores in advance as a deposit, and the final payment will be paid after the task is completed, that is, the crisis in the base is resolved. Hou Ying readily agreed, and the two parties signed the contract. Although this paper contract has lost its legal protection before the end of the world, if they dare to break the contract, he doesn't mind letting them know that they are looking for someone who is better than that The lightning zombies in the castle they were trapped in were a hundred times more powerful and terrifying opponents.
Send the bearded people back to the base. The medieval castle covers a large area and is strong, but they have no intention of wandering around. After meeting the leader with the bearded people, they politely declined their hospitality and put out the contract straight to the point.
The bearded man bit the bullet and explained to his father, but before he finished speaking, he was scolded by his elder brother, accusing him of being unconscious and daydreaming, agreeing to such unequal terms and so on.
Ordinary translators kept explaining the current situation to them. The bearded man was not the only heir to them. It seemed that the internal struggle for power was complicated.
However, Hou Ying and the others didn't pay attention to these things. Seeing that the leader thought over and over again, he agreed to Big Beard's request and understood that the other party valued Big Beard. Returning to the team train, the request to stay in the castle was rejected.
Seeing them leave, the bearded brothers ridiculed him extremely. In fact, he himself was uneasy, but he didn't show it at all on the surface, but he was confident.
Seeing this, the leader stared deeply at the direction the team train was leaving, and took this big gamble in his heart.
They, too, had no choice.
It turned out that after the bearded men left, the lightning zombies attacked the castle more and more frequently, and now they have reached the point where they have run out of ammunition and food. If they can't completely solve this hidden danger, the food brought back by the bearded men will not last. How long did they have, but in the end they could not escape the fate of being trapped in the castle.
If that day really comes, what's the point of holding those crystal nuclei in your hands
Hou Ying and the others were not interested in understanding the heaviness in the leader's heart. They agreed with the leader for half a month, but they were not in a hurry to start taking action.
Hearing that Hou Ying planned to act separately from them, Wu Huan said in surprise: "The zombies here are very weird. What if Captain Hou encounters any trouble and doesn't take care of him?" He thought it would be safer for everyone to act together.
Hou Ying said: "Team Wu should not have forgotten what these foreigners said before. The mutation of the zombies first spread from the north, which means that there may also be hidden dangers of the devil's stone in the north. I will go to find out the way first. It is best to throw them into an area free of zombies, if not, I will naturally come back to ask for help. This problem cannot be ignored, otherwise the zombie mutation will spread to the territory of China sooner or later."
Wu Huan knew the priorities when he heard the words, seeing that Li Xuanyuan and the others had no objection to Hou Ying's actions alone, it was even more difficult for him to say anything as an outsider.
Hou Ying was satisfied when she saw this, hugged Li Xuanyuan and said, "I will try my best to go back as soon as possible. Before I come back, you can take them outside to hunt and kill some mutated zombies."
Li Xuanyuan nodded. Since the bearded and the others all said that the zombies have several times their strength after the mutation, Li Xuanyuan would naturally not take the risk of doing something he was not sure about. He also planned to talk about the ability of polycrystalline core zombies first, while ensuring the safety of others, he would charge a little interest first.
