Chapter 678: Chapter 611: Need to Pay Extra Chapter 678: Chapter 611: Need to Pay Extra Although the location had changed, the room where the strange soldier was situated was almost identical to the previous one.
Still half bookshelves, half wine racks.
The strange soldier, with his tallic body resembling that of an iron man, displayed an exaggerated smile upon seeing Tao Yu.
“Old pal, you’ve finally co back.”
After saying that, he even wanted to embrace Tao Yu in a bear hug.
Tao Yu, however, slightly repulsed, pushed him away,
“If you’re being so overly attentive without reason, you must be asking sothing of .
Spit it out, is it about the employer and the New Developnt Zone of Starshine?”
The strange soldier didn’t care about Tao Yu’s attitude at all; instead, he grinned widely and said,
“It seems you’ve guessed it.
The Suns, without a peep, suddenly made a large-scale Catastrophe Level mobilization, outwitting the Gundy Family’s black-hand operation; they vanished into thin air, and to buy ti and mislead, they even claid that they had fled…”
He paused there, and then with a hint of emotion, he continued,
“So now, you are the only Catastrophe Level on our side for the New Developnt Zone of Starshine, and the difficulty of sending more support afterward is extrely high…”
In the past, two people, Old Mu, used a one-ti personal Teleportation Device, activated by an energy source obtained from the League of Interceptors through a difficult and risky trade.
...
And Teng Lianghong managed to hide during the World Breaker’s ti by daringly using the thod of energy possession.
It could be said that even if other Catastrophe Levels had similar Abilities, they wouldn’t take the risk.
Especially now that the Suns’ Catastrophe Levels had taken up positions at the Teleportation Devices.
Otherwise, if they were caught repressing their powers during the teleportation, they could easily give away their advantages for nothing.
At tis like these, the importance of Teng Lianghong rose steadily.
“Since we’ve already taken on the task, of course, I have no objections.
But as you know, the guys from the Suns there are not only greater in number, but also stronger than .
If I encounter them, my chances of survival are slim to none.”
Tao Yu spoke with a grave expression, which the strange soldier undoubtedly shared entirely,
“Of course, I agree with you.
You’ve just broken through to the Catastrophe Level.
It’s okay to carry out so targeted assassinations on World Breakers when necessary, but if they corner you, the risk is too great.”
As he said this, the strange soldier added,
“So before we et them this ti, let’s first agree on a charter.
Since the main focus is on you, feel free to suggest any terms, and I’ll negotiate with them in my capacity as the leader.”
The leader of the Assassin’s League in Baixing State had successfully assassinated Catastrophe Levels before, which was a significant deterrent.
Catastrophe Levels were already formidable, and certainly, all of them had a few ace abilities up their sleeves.
While defeating them in varying degrees of strength might not be difficult, actually killing them without sustaining any damage was challenging.
Rumors were that the Big Boss had ans akin to a “Duel Space.”
But since everyone who had seen him act had died, it couldn’t be confird.
It was only inferred through so of the scene analysis.
By invoking the na of that Big Boss, even if the employers were forrly the third-ranked family of Starshine City, they would definitely have to show enough respect.
“First of all, the paynt definitely needs to be increased, and the extra amount has to go into my pocket.”
The first thing that Tao Yu ntioned, which the strange soldier agreed to without hesitation,
“Of course, after all, you’re the one taking the risks.
How much do you think is appropriate?”
“Five hundred million.”
Tao Yu went straight for the fences with his demand, and this made the strange soldier see stars; he then rubbed his tallic head, causing a screechy sound, and said sowhat helplessly,
“I’m afraid that’s not very realistic.
Even for them, taking out such a large amount of liquid funds all at once would have an impact.
Why do you need so much Yuan Force?”
The strange soldier found it unusual.
At their level of power, the appreciation for Yuan Force wasn’t really that high anymore; it was more about things that could be of personal use.
There is a threshold to Yuan Force accumulation, and families with considerable incos also have well-defined expenses, including the nurturing of the younger generation and their own consumption, which are represented by fixed numbers.
In terms of total net worth, they were certainly much more than that scale, and their liquidity could suffice as well.
The long-term investnt alone in training a World Breaker could exceed hundred million.
But taking out five hundred million Yuan Force all at once would definitely have so impact in the short term.
After all, there was a limit to how much Yuan Force could be produced, and spending it promptly was more beneficial.
If stored excessively, keeping it in the God Statue would incur deductions, and if kept personally, it could be lost upon death.
A sum of five hundred million was probably sothing only a large cash-flow entity like the Wanhuo Chamber of Comrce could handle with relative ease.
“I just want to see their sincerity.
What do you think is the most they can offer?”
Tao Yu lacked experience in dealing with such big families and could only infer from the examples of the Suns and the Wanhuo Chamber of Comrce.
However, now with the strange soldier at hand, he could suggest, as they currently shared ‘the sa goal’.
“In pure Yuan Force, being able to assemble a couple of hundred million would be considered good, and to be taking so much Yuan Force is quite a loss anyway.”
The strange soldier actually thought that demanding Yuan Force was sowhat tacky.
“Don’t rush.
Besides Yuan Force, I’ll have other demands, like Skills that allow to evade or even Anti-Divination Skills.
They must have plenty of good stuff, right?”
“Those Skills co with severe Pollution issues.
I think artifacts might be better.
There’s no need to waste your Pollution buffer on these.”
The strange soldier advised.
“I want Skills.”
“Alright, alright, it’s up to you.
But with this, it’s about enough.
If you demand too much Yuan Force, they’ll definitely want to sign a very stringent contract, which will really make you take risks.
Actually, asking for a little less and leaving yourself more breathing room might not be bad.”
The strange soldier shared his opinion.
But Tao Yu spoke with a righteous conviction,
“I’ve just made my breakthrough; how else am I to advance if I don’t take risks?
I’ve decided.
Let there be a contract if there must be.
It doesn’t matter.
They’re not commanding ; I’m the one completing the tasks they arrange.
How exactly I do so is up to , and they will have to make their people follow my lead.”
“This shouldn’t be a problem, but do you have any Talent in Divination?
Wanting such Skills…
do you have any specific requirents?
It’d be easier for to negotiate.”
“Have them bring everything they have and let choose.
They’re not worried about us deceiving them, right?”
Tao Yu’s remark made the strange soldier pause, then he nodded in agreent,
“That makes sense.
I’ll tell them straight up.”
‘Teng Lianghong,’ the Newly Ascended Disaster Level, was willing to take such a risk.
As a predecessor and friend, the strange soldier still had to support him.
And though the perks of being the Big Boss went into ‘Teng Lianghong’s’ pocket, the Assassin’s League would still earn its honor and the agreed upon fees from before.
Besides, for the Assassin’s League, the higher the strength, the lower their cut.
When it was only the three of them at the Catastrophe Level, they also casually made their own arrangents.
Having achieved the rank of Catastrophe Level, Teng Lianghong now had this privilege too!
