Student 'Huang Jin' is really studious. It seems that for rich people, what is difficult to buy is not material things, but some special 'knowledge'.
What I threw to Gold last time was just some basic knowledge about the gap. If there is still something to sell, Tianyang is not without knowledge to sell.
However, the knowledge he possessed was actually limited. In addition, he had already sold it once before, and if he sold it again this time, it would inevitably give people the impression that "the knowledge is cheap".
Furthermore, he now plays the role of 'The Grim Reaper', a character that has been surrounded by elements of mystery, weirdness and death.
Rather than knowledge.
After sorting out his thoughts, Tianyang said in a gloomy tone: "I am not in the mood to discuss the gap today."
Gold still refused to give up: "I brought a batch of items from the cracks. If Mr. Death is willing to teach me, they are all yours."
That's really generous.
Tianyang felt a little regretful, but now, if he didn't want to ruin the reputation of the God of Death, he had to stick to his original decision.
Then Gold saw that the Grim Reaper remained silent and even closed his eyes behind the mask.
He could only smile bitterly.
In my heart, I slightly revised my evaluation of the 'God of Death'.
In addition to the previous impressions, labels such as "moody" and "capricious" have been added.
He had a headache.
Gold likes those who are ambitious and have desires the most, because such people can be easily impressed and exploited with generous material conditions.
The most troublesome thing is undoubtedly the character like 'Death'.
Powerful, mysterious, not driven by profit, not accepting threats, and acting according to his mood... .
The party continues.
At this time, the translator sitting next to 'Steel' raised his hand and said, "Mr. Gold, Mr. Steel said that he has some knowledge of the cracks to sell."
Huang Jin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Bi Dou, "Please prepare a private room for us."
Bidou responded cheerfully: "No problem."
So Gold, Steel, and the interpreter left the table and went to the private room.
Only Tianyang and Smiley were left at the scene.
Tianyang looked at the smiling face.
I wondered if this person was related to the murder of the former pastor. After all, a group of unrecorded desperadoes appeared in that incident.
Before that happened, Smiley "bought" a group of assassins from Gold.
Such a coincidence makes it easy for people to associate them with each other.
Smiley looked up at this time: "Mr. Death is interested in me?"
Tianyang knew that his observation had attracted the other party's attention.
"I wonder what kind of person Mr. Smiley is."
Smiley said "Oh" in the mask: "Mr. Death, I wonder if you have heard this saying. Curiosity kills the cat."
"A proverb from the world of adversity."
Tian Yang nodded, his tone grim: "I just happened to read it. Mr. Smiley, are you threatening me?"
Smiling face said calmly: "That depends on your understanding of the threat."
Tianyang let out a short, cold laugh: "I've been a little bored lately."
The hand on the smiling face's knee unconsciously raised into a fist: "Mr. Death, what do you mean by that?"
Tian Yang replied: "That depends on your definition of 'boredom'.
understand."
Smiling Face fell silent. At this time, footsteps were heard. Huang Jin came back with a glass of wine and said in a disappointed tone, "I thought I could gain something, but it seems that this friend from the West Land doesn't know enough about the gap."
“Not even as much as me.”
It seems that Mr. Steel failed to give Gold satisfactory 'knowledge'.
Tianyang made a quick judgment and looked towards the private room. Gangtie and the translator were approaching. This Westerner was obviously in a bad mood and was complaining about something in a language that Tianyang couldn't understand, and was expressing his dissatisfaction with large movements.
After sitting down again, Smiling Face looked at Huang Jin: "I still need some manpower."
Huang Jin said generously: "What kind of talent do you need? Another Ascender? I can't provide that. After all, Ascenders are not cabbages, and what you need is a special kind."
Smiley said with regret: "Really? It looks like we can't cooperate this time."
Snapped.
A large hand landed on the table.
Steel leaned forward and spoke in a rapid and intense tone. The translator beside him quickly explained: "Mr. Steel means that he can provide a group of people, including Ascendants, and guarantee that they have the strength of Rank 2 or above."
"He even has Level 4 and Level 5 experts in his hands, but what can Mr. Smiley Face give?"
Smiling Face leaned back in his chair, showing a calm sitting posture and said, "That depends on what Mr. Steel needs."
After a quick exchange with Steel, the translator responded, "Mr. Steel is interested in spices, rare minerals, the remains of the Black Folk of East Continent, and beautiful women. I wonder what kind of reward Mr. Smiley can offer."
Smiling Face spread his hands and said, "Except for spices, I can get some of the others. As for the quantity, it depends on how much 'goods' Mr. Steel can provide and the quality of the goods."
Soon, both sides were talking eagerly, and it seemed that they had a high chance of reaching a deal.
At this time, Huang Jin's body was slightly leaning towards Tian Yang: "Mr. Death, I remember you said last time that you can accept assassination commissions."
"It just so happens that I have someone I want to kill, I wonder if you are interested."
Tian Yang was very frugal with words, and uttered a few words from behind the mask: "What is the target?"
Huang Jin took out a photo and pushed it in front of Tian Yang. When he saw the person in the photo clearly, he almost jumped up.
It turned out to be Yunze!
Fortunately, he was wearing a mask, and because he lowered his head, the hood blocked his eyes. Otherwise, Huang Jin might have read some information from his reaction.
After a slight adjustment, Tian Yang kept the same tone: "What is his rank and position?"
Gold interlaced his fingers on the table, "Heart of the Elements, Rank 3, his strength is nothing to mention, it should be a piece of cake for Mr. Death."
"But he does have guards around him, probably experts at level 5 protecting him. He will leave the fortress after a while. The wilderness is very dangerous. I hope he dies in an accident."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the 'God of Death' say: "Not interested."
"W-what?"
Huang Jin was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Death, this should not be of much interest to you. Besides, you haven't heard what my reward is."
Tianyang snorted: "It's because it's not difficult, so I'm not interested. Besides, you hope it's an accident, and I disdain to do such sneaky work."
"You need an assassin, and I'm not one!"
Huang Jin once again realized how difficult it was to deal with the 'God of Death' and couldn't help but let out a bitter smile beneath his mask.
What he didn't know was that the main reason Tianyang refused was because of 'Yun Ze'.
Tianyang could not think of any reason to assassinate the young master of the Yun family who took good care of him. At the same time, he wondered what Huang Jin's true identity was and why he wanted to assassinate Yunze.
Yunze had said before that he would go to the Black Star Fort occupied area to take care of several mines.
This is a personnel transfer within the Yun family. How did Huang Jin know about it
After a moment, Huang Jin coughed dryly and asked tentatively: "Mr. Death, some interesting things have happened in the Reverse Realm recently. Do you want to know?"
Tianyang chinned gently.
Huang Jin became enthusiastic again: "It is said that a small earthquake occurred in the metropolis some time ago."
Tianyang looked at Huang Jin again. This guy was well-informed. He also learned from Luo Shan that an earthquake had occurred in the metropolis. Unexpectedly, Huang Jin also knew about it.
Gold continued, "When Fortress was tracking down the source of the earthquake, it discovered that an arch had appeared in an unexplored wilderness outside of Metropolis."
arch
Could it be the gap
Tianyang uttered two words in the mask: "Continue."
"That archway seems to lead to another dimension. The fortress naturally explored it, but only one person from the exploration team returned, and that person went crazy after returning."
"However, the equipment on him recorded some images. It seems that there is a large space behind the arch, and there is a city!"
"If my guess is correct, there should be a gap behind the door, right?"
Tian Yang hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's possible."
Huang Jin lowered his voice and said, "Due to staffing issues, the fortress is unable to allocate a large number of manpower to explore behind the gate. I got the news that the fortress will open the right to explore this archway, of course, with limitations."
"However, I am very interested and have already started to set up an exploration team. If Mr. Death is interested, you can join. I am willing to provide you with all the conveniences."
This is his real purpose!
Death is mysterious and powerful. Moreover, he is very familiar with the gap.
If he joins, my team will definitely gain a lot!
Tian Yang's heart was also pounding. After a little consideration, he nodded and said, "Okay, when is the departure time?"
"The specific time still needs to be confirmed by the fortress. Once there is a result, I will leave a message to Mr. Bidou. There should be news in a week at the fastest and half a month at the slowest."
Tianyang hummed and said nothing more.
Huang Jin walked towards Bi Dou and told him about the message. After listening, Bi Dou came to Tian Yang and put a note in his hand.
Tianyang unfolded it and saw an address of the downtown area and a secret code inside.
Bi Dou said softly, "This is one of our contact points in the lower city. As long as we say the relevant code, we can get the corresponding information."
After Tianyang memorized the address and the code, he rubbed his palms together and the note turned into powder and scattered it.
On the other side, Smiley Face and Steel seemed to have reached an agreement. After deciding the location of the handover, Smiley Face paid a deposit under the witness of Bidou.
As the party was coming to an end, Tianyang went to the bathroom, opened the crack door, summoned a split aphid demon, and secretly hid it in the cloak...
