After hesitating for a while, Pike felt that he would rather believe what he has or not, and truthfully said: "A Yinling man claims to be the messenger of Dusky Star, I found a pitch-black bead from him, and I don't know what it is, I thought it was Treasure, take it with me, but the other day there was a scuffle at the dock, and the beads were lost, maybe they were picked up by someone…”
Because the beads are not on him, there is no loss in telling the truth, the other party is likely to be Dusky Star, not to mention his idol, just talking about Dusky Star's behavior, if you refuse to disclose information, you can imagine the fate, according to the risk estimate, Compromise is safest.
Han Xiao narrowed his eyes.
bead? What kind of thing is that? I haven't heard of this event in my previous life.
Is it a hidden plot
Han Xiao’s heart moved, it seemed possible that Dusky Star sent Ashes to represent a lot of attention, maybe it was a large-scale secret mission that no one had triggered in the previous life.
"You are very cooperative, and I will pay a certain fee as the intelligence fee."
"There is no need for remuneration, I only hope to join Dusky Star."
Pike rubbed his hands together.
Hearing this, Han Xiao suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Pike did not bargain before revealing the information. It turned out to be a potential supporter of Dusky Star. At the beginning, when he saw that Peiji’s information was a mixed-race Gedora, Han Xiao had a conjecture. He chose to replace Dusky Star’s name. In addition to making trouble, he also had a chance to win the bid.
In fact, the reasoning is not difficult. Pike is a mixed-race Gedora, and he is a wanted criminal who is not allowed to order, so the political tendency is more likely to support Dusky Star.
Han Xiao dared to use Dusky Star's name, considering that Ashes would hide his true identity for the sake of secrecy, even if Ashes came to ask first, he was using another identity, and he happened to borrow chicken to lay eggs. If he was a mercenary, Paige would definitely hate them, he might not necessarily get the information, and he might expose himself.
With a cough, Han Xiao pretended to be serious.
"I see your belief, you are a conscious Gedora, our great cause needs passionate people like you..."
Without waiting for Pike to be happy, Han Xiao changed the conversation.
"However, we have strict screening procedures for newcomers to prevent spies from infiltrating. Just, there is one thing that needs your help. There is another force on this floating island secretly competing with us for this bead. Before me, there were No one asked the same question as me?"
"Uh, no."
"That's good, we're one step ahead, this is your chance to make a contribution to the organization, and in a while they're likely to come to you like me and ask the same question, and you tell them that the beads have been thrown into outer space went."
Han Xiao smiled and said: "After you complete this matter, Dusky Star will accept you at the right time and take you to the secret base for formal training."
"I see."
Pike was convinced, his face solemn.
He didn't expect that the pool of Yinlingren was so deep, and he couldn't help but wonder what the secret of the bead was, and it would attract the secret snatch of the big forces!
At the same time, Pike was also very annoyed. If he could have noticed the extraordinaryness of the beads at the time, he might have obtained greater benefits, and he would not have done the matter of buying the caskets and returning the beads... But it is too late to regret it now.
After finishing the communication, Han Xiao turned around and left the pier, and waited until there was no one else to change back to his original attire.
"It turns out that what Dusky Star wanted was a black bead, but its whereabouts are unknown."
Although there are gains, there is still very little information. If you follow the normal method, the clues will be broken here...
However, Han Xiao did not take the usual path.
"Since you know what the target is, let's try it with the Destiny Child card, I hope it's worth the money." Han Xiao decided that to use the Prediction Card, at least he had to know what the target was. Although Pike's information was scarce, it just happened to be. conditions are met.
[You use [Character Advent Card-Child of Destiny], the number of times of use/]
The familiar hazy fog appeared, like a scene in a dream. Han Xiao’s line of sight passed through the fog, and a black bead appeared in front of him. He was caught in one palm and looked up along his arm. His face was fixed in Han Xiao's eyes.
After a full two seconds, the picture shattered and returned to the original environment, as if experiencing an illusion.
"Leaving the song?!"
Han Xiao widened his eyes.
He really didn't expect that the bead was picked up by the player, or was picked up by this leather boy, no wonder he didn't give it to him.
…
Twenty minutes after Han Xiao left, Ashes arrived late and rushed to the dock to find Pike.
Pike remembered Han Xiao's advice, and his face changed slightly. As expected, Dusky Star's competitors came so quickly.
"Who are you? What are you going to do?"
"I am a mercenary, my employer is a silver spirit, the prisoner has been saved, you are no longer our enemy, and now I have something to ask you to verify, whether you killed two silver spirits, we want to know For the specific details, I can pay a certain intelligence fee for this.”
Ashes chose to pretend to be a mercenary. Only the mercenaries knew about the two dead silver spirits. The motives for inquiring were reasonable, otherwise it would easily arouse suspicion and be reported as a murderer who attacked the slave market. In his impression, he has not been exposed. , no one knows their Dusky Star identities.
But his choice happened to be a coincidence, Han Xiao and Ashes exchanged identities mysteriously!
Pike even believed it to be true. He thought that Han Xiao was "Dusky Star", but Ashes, which really belonged to Dusky Star, was instead regarded as Dusky Star's enemy!
Even more coincidentally, because everyone only has a part of the information, Pike and Ashes are kept in the dark, only Han Xiao can barely see the truth, and his riotous operation puts the two on the road to the truth. Successfully strayed!
"Are you a mercenary?!"
Pike's eyes immediately showed hatred. It was the mercenary who made him lose a lot of money. Do you still want information? ! If Dusky Star hadn't told me, I would have ignored you!
Ashes said in a timely manner: "As long as you are willing to answer, I can pay 50,000 intelligence fees to make up for your loss, which is a lot of money."
Dusky Star's confidence is that it is rich and powerful, and Ashes directly transfers the 10,000 deposit, and is sure to let Pike speak.
Rao is Paige, not a rich slave, and was taken aback by this lavish shot. It doesn't look like a mercenary who licks blood with a knife.
He rolled his eyes, pretending to be moved by money, and talking about the process of arresting the Yinling man, he only concealed the secret language beads as a test.
Sure enough, Ashes heard the last thing and found that the information he wanted was missing, so he had to point out the target and said, "Did you find a black bead from those two people?"
"What beads? I've never seen them before. I threw them out of the spaceship and didn't bother to waste time searching. The things you said are probably drifting in the universe."
Pike sneered in his heart and lied according to Han Xiao's instructions.
Ash's eyes flashed a haze.
This is the worst result!
If the body of the carrier is accidentally captured by a star, the Secret Word Bead will also be destroyed. If it is attracted by a black hole, it will not be found at all.
"By the way, has anyone asked you the same question?"
Ashes asked suddenly.
"No."
Pike immediately denied it.
Ash frowned, gave the rest of the remuneration to Pike, and left with a solemn heart.
Up to now, the clues have been broken, their contingent is useless, and they can only report to the headquarters.
In the spaceship, Pike looked at the blackened communication screen with a smile and full of anticipation.
Joining Dusky Star has always been his goal, because Dusky Star is too mysterious, he has no chance to contact it, and he has always regretted it.
And now, the coveted opportunity has fallen from the sky!
Pike secretly excited:
'I have made a contribution to Dusky Star! After waiting for so long, I finally got the chance, I finally, finally can join Dusky Star... '
…
Near the ruins of the slave market, players do not need to return to the guards, and temporarily settle the three Volga brothers and Aroxia.
The crowd surrounded Aroxia, like a mad bee and a butterfly. Aroxia's appearance is amazing, which is pleasing to the eye, and she is also a beautiful beauty with amnesia. Represented by meat buns, most of the male players are full of hormones and full of interest. You chatted with Aroshia sentence by sentence.
Aroshia was calm, "anything is fine", she had no interest in the surrounding things, and responded to each and every one.
Next to them, the great gods of various clubs remained reserved, avoided far away, and chatted with each other.
At this moment, all the players of the Black Star Mercenary Group triggered a new quest.
