Monarch of Evernight: The wind rises on September 1st
bsp;The agreement was quickly reached, and each division promised to send manpower within a week. This is equivalent to paying Qianye a protection fee. The price may seem high, but compared with the annihilation of the entire army in his own defense area, it is nothing at all.
But the more protection money he receives, the greater Qianye’s responsibility becomes. If you can't withstand the attack of the dark race, then everything will be over.
After sending off these officers, Qianye received another special guest.
This is a man in his forties. He is not tall, has gained weight in middle age, and has a very obvious belly. However, when he sat opposite him, Qianye felt a faint sense of danger. This feeling was stronger than when he faced many officers of the expeditionary force.
The middle-aged man sat down on the sofa, straightened his back cautiously, and subconsciously rubbed his hat with his hands on his knees. He looked very embarrassed, just like a small businessman who suddenly met a high official.
Even Qianye had to admire his acting skills. If the pupil of true vision hadn't clearly reflected the obscure force fluctuations on his body, he would have been concealed and thought to be just an ordinary fat man with no abilities.
Qianye waved his hand and asked Song Hu to go out, so that only he and the middle-aged fat man were left in the living room.
"If you have anything to say, just tell me. There is no need to act. I think no matter whose family you are from, you are at least an elder." In other words, the man in front of me who came to see him as a small businessman is a war general. .
The middle-aged man took a deep look at Qianye, his eyes suddenly as sharp as a knife, "Sir Qianye really has good eyesight. But now that he knows my identity, he still dares to be alone in the room with me. This courage is also It’s extraordinary.”
Qianye smiled slightly, "This has nothing to do with courage. I have killed many viscount elders in the past, and I will kill more in the future. I don't care if there are more or less."
The middle-aged man's expression suddenly froze, and then his aura suddenly subsided, and he returned to his appearance of a friendly fat man, "Well, as I get older and have a career and a family, I really don't dare to venture and fight like young people. If Five years ago, I would have asked Master Qianye for advice."
Qianye smiled but did not answer. Talking about this kind of thing is meaningless, only doing it will tell the difference.
The middle-aged man looked serious and said: "My surname is Zhou, my name is Caiguang. I am currently a senior elder of Guisuo. I have just been transferred to Yongye. In the future, I will be responsible for the business of the six counties in the northwest region within the scope of the expeditionary force. . So I came here specifically to see Master Qianye to see if I can have the opportunity to serve you in the future."
His words were said in a tactful tone. In fact, if Qianye hadn't broken his disguise, who knows what other words he would have heard.
Qianye’s eyebrows jumped slightly when he heard the name Guisuo. He reached out to pick up the tea cup, took a sip, then glanced at Zhou Caiguang and said, "Guisuo? I heard that you have been operating in the Western Continent. Do you think Yongye also has a branch?"
Zhou Caiguang said: "The Western Continent is the territory of the Zhao clan, and the pattern of Guisuo is just like this. Yongye is the place for free development." A few words revealed the ambition of this middle-aged fat man.
Qianye said calmly: "But there are many organizations like yours, and there are even bigger ones than you. Even in Yongye, there are many organizations, at least they are familiar with the local situation. Why should I look for you?"
Zhou Caiguang smiled and said: "No matter how Guisuo is on the Western Continent, entering Eternal Night is a completely new situation. The forces you mentioned have existed for a long time and may be temporarily stronger than us, but they inevitably have various human relationships. Sometimes it’s convenient, but it’s also very restrictive, and it’s even hard for you to figure out who is standing behind them.”
Qianye raised his eyebrows slightly, not wanting this fat man with an unattractive appearance to have such a good eloquence. The various forces in Yongye Continent are complex, and the biggest obstacle to alliances and cooperation is often mutual trust, because in some fields, Financial gain is not everything.
"But I am different. Yongye's Guisuo is as clean as a newborn and deserves more trust from you. Your Dark Fire is very powerful, but I heard it was established not long ago. I think we can cooperate in many places. . As time goes by, you will know that Guisuo is not only capable of killing people. This is why I chose to see you in the first place. In addition, I have prepared something for you to take a look at."
As he spoke, Zhou Caiguang took out an envelope and handed it over. Qianye opened it and saw that inside was a certification document listing many properties used as mortgage. What surprised Qianye was that the certificate was signed by Wei Potian.
Zhou Caiguang stared at Qianye, taking in every trace of his expression. He smiled and said, "Look, this is enough to show my sincerity. All the properties on the list have been mortgaged to Prince Wei. If there is a future between us, If there is any problem with your cooperation, based on your relationship with Prince Wei, you can collect these things as compensation at any time."
At this point, Qianye couldn't help but admire the fat man's methods. Now it seems that Zhou Caiguang still doesn't know that Qianye and Guisuo had a quarrel. It was purely out of considerations of developing business. Among the many divisions of the expeditionary force, Choose dark fire. In order to facilitate this matter, he went to Wei Potian specifically to endorse his credibility. In other words, Zhou Caiguang had already made great efforts to understand the background of Anhuo and Qianye.
Qianye pondered for a while and asked: "What can you give me?"
"We can start with the simplest things, such as intelligence. Dark Fire pays a monthly fee, and we provide general information on a fixed basis. I guarantee that you will see some things that you cannot see elsewhere, but you will definitely be very happy. Something of interest."
Qianye smiled. This is a customized service. It seems that Zhou Caiguang is really sincere in winning the dark fire market.
Zhou Caiguang took out a thin document and handed it over. There are only a few pages, which are divided into several columns, including world events, empire news, and eternal night affairs. Several to more than a dozen messages are recorded in each level, including even two royal family movements. Each message is only about a hundred words long, with a few sentences introducing the matter.
Qianye took it and turned it over. Zhou Caiguang said on the side: "You are so young and have opened up such a situation. After you break through the warrior general, your future will be limitless, so you must have these things now. Less. If you want to do big things, you need to have a big vision.
Qianye put down the briefing and said, "This thing seems a little simpler."
Zhou Caiguang smiled and said: "This is just an entry-level briefing, one hundred gold coins per month. If you need it, there are two more advanced briefings on top of this. The prices are different, and they are more than ten times more expensive. . If you are particularly interested in any aspect, we can also provide a more in-depth investigation report. As for Guinsou’s old business, it is also the scope of our business. ”
The so-called main business is killing people. In fact, assassination is Guisuo's real business. However, Fatty Zhou focuses on news. He is quite an interesting character.
Qianye nodded and put down the briefing in his hand, "Okay, just keep this one. Leave your contact information and I will contact you again if necessary in the future."
Zhou Caiguang stretched out his fat hand and said with a smile: "It is my honor to be able to serve you."
Qianye stretched out his hand to shake Zhou Caiguang's hand, and suddenly felt a terrifying force coming from his hand. If there was no resistance, even fine steel could be crushed. This seemingly friendly fat man couldn't help but test Qianye's strength.
Qianye's whole body was running with the Force, and his hands suddenly became stronger. The surging Force combined with the powerful force of the vampire's physique surged out!
The sound of thunder suddenly sounded out of thin air in the living room. Zhou Caiguang's face instantly turned pale, sweat rolled down his forehead, and his whole body was trembling. The force force he attacked collided with Qianye's force force and actually rolled back.
Seeing that Zhou Caiguang could not hold on any longer, Qianye slowly withdrew his force and let go of his hand. Zhou Caiguang's right hand swelled rapidly, and a purple handprint on it was very clear.
Zhou Caiguang tried to move his fingers, but his face turned pale in pain and he gasped. Fortunately, every finger could still move. It was obvious that Qianye was merciful and did not want to crush his bones.
Zhou Caiguang couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Master Qianye's strength is really amazing. Although I didn't live up to expectations, I didn't take ordinary tenth-level warriors seriously, but I never thought that I could survive even a few minutes under Master Qianye. I can’t hold it down. When your force moves, the void becomes thunderous. Not even every warrior can achieve this state.”
Speaking of this, Zhou Caiguang couldn't help but ask: "When do you plan to advance to the level of warrior?"
"No need to worry." Qianye didn't think he needed to answer this question.
Zhou Caiguang also knew that he had made a mistake, so he bowed slightly, left his contact information, and left.
In the next few days, people like Zhou Caiguang came to visit one after another, all kinds of people came in an endless stream. This actually also means that after Dark Fire annexed the 7th Division, a series of vigorous and resolute measures and the Western Expedition finally showed results, and they were gradually recognized by everyone in Yong Ye. Only then did they truly gain a firm foothold.
Among the people who came, there were those from the Guinsou organization who wanted to cooperate, there were also aristocratic families and some forces with ambiguous backgrounds who wanted to come to Blackliu City to expand their business, and there were even representatives of some small aristocratic families who were arrogant and brought with them When others look at the untouchables, they ask Qianye to join them, and they also look like they are giving you a great favor.
Qianye didn't even bother to pay attention to such people, and simply had them dragged out, beaten up, and thrown outside the Black Current City. As for the clamors like "You will definitely regret it" and "You can't afford to offend the people behind me", even the Dark Fire Warriors only regarded it as the barking of dogs.
It was enough once or twice, but similar things happened more times, and Qianye realized that not everyone was well-informed and knew the rules.
Looking back now, if he had not relied on the channels of Song Zining and Zhao Yuying, he would have been ignorant of what happened outside the war zone. Qianye couldn't help but remember that in the Hunter's House, the price of information was often more expensive than the reward for tasks.
From this point of view, Zhou Caiguang's briefing is indeed important, at least he will not be ignorant of major world events. Another topic brought up by Zhou Caiguang also made Qianye feel a little disturbed, and he began to seriously consider the possibility of being promoted to a warrior general.
The war generals of the human race and the viscounts of the dark race are both thresholds, the threshold that truly distinguishes the upper class from the lower class. No matter how strong Qianye's fighting power is, no matter how many generals he kills, if he doesn't break through the generals for a day, the respect he gets will always be a little less meaningful.
The key to promotion of a human race to a warrior general is nothing more than gathering energy into a whirlpool with just one sentence. At the nine major nodes, let the force condense to a certain extent and naturally turn into a vortex. In this way, the speed of absorbing the Force will be doubled, and the Force of the surrounding environment can be used for one's own use, and at the same time, the body's physique can be improved to a certain extent.
Promoting to the general level is a process of comprehensive improvement. This is a watershed, and the strength of the upper and lower ranks is completely different.
However, for the same warriors, the size and purity of the Force vortex can be very different. The purer the Force, the closer it is to its origin, and the corresponding power and promotion potential will be greater. Ordinary warriors can only condense the Force to a better degree than soldiers. This is why geniuses try to suppress levels and work hard to purify the Force.
Thinking of this, Qianye remembered that Song Zining once said that the great families have their own secret methods to assist the promotion of generals. Not only can it greatly increase the chance of promotion, but top-level methods can even bring the purity of the Force to a higher level.
The top training room Qianye used in the Song clan was one of them. The consumption was an astronomical figure for ordinary people. He was a little curious about what the Zhao clan's method was.
At this time, the Iron Curtain has been formed, and a war may break out at any time. Qianye is determined not to suppress the level and be promoted to a warrior in advance. Perhaps this may slightly affect the achievements achieved in the future, but if you die in a **** battle because of insufficient combat power, then what is the future?
The endless stream of visitors finally died down after a few days of excitement. Qianye was free to practice well, so he began to prepare for promotion to a warrior general. The officers of An Huo were instructed not to disturb him unless there was something urgent, and the daily operational affairs were handed over to several senior officers such as Song Hu.
On the second day after Qianye practiced behind closed doors, a small airship with an unremarkable appearance flew to Black Current City. It looks ordinary, but the fact that it can reach Blackstream City safely under the Iron Curtain shows that it is extraordinary.
Under the Iron Curtain, not only the land beasts became violent, but also the ferocious birds that occupied the sky. All ordinary transport ships have been grounded, and only fleets escorted by warships dare to take off.
The aerostat landed on the landing pad, the hatch was opened, the gangway was lowered, and an old man with a clear face walked out of it, his silver hair carefully combed.
He was dressed in plain clothes with almost no modifications. However, those who really know the industry can see that the tailoring and fabric of this dress are made by a master, and every detail is impeccable. I'm afraid these clothes alone are enough to buy a few houses in a remote rural area on the border like Heiliu City.
Behind the old man, there was a handsome young man and several other followers.
The old man glanced over like a hawk, and said calmly: "Is this the Black Current?"
"Yes, we are already here." The young man next to him replied.
The old man was noncommittal about the city scene in front of him, and just said: "Since the place is right, let's go find the lady first."
