Chapter 170 Negotiation
Thor looked at Hayden with his only remaining right eye and saw the color draining from his face little by little.
Based on Thor's understanding, Hayden, who was huddled in the corpse room without going to class, research, or making progress, probably just wanted to wait until he was thirty, leave the Wizard Tower, and live a free and low-key life.
But the reality is not as beautiful as imagined.
The closed-off Hayden finally comes into contact with the truth he has never understood.
His whole body slumped, his body swayed, one hand pressed on the tool table, and the neatly arranged tools were messed up.
Just like his mood at this time.
"I just said don't hide, don't hide, you coward, it's over now! Is it over?" Hayden, who looked pale, suddenly opened his mouth and said something completely inconsistent with his expression.
Seeing Hayden like this, Thor raised his hand and pinched his chin, thinking deeply.
A neighbor who has been with him for two years, he has long discovered that Hayden has some personality problems and seems to have evolved a second personality. I don't know if it was the influence of witchcraft radiation or his own inner pathology.
At first, Saul didn't intend to ignore it, but during this cooperation, he suddenly felt that Hayden was actually a good assistant.
He has no unnecessary curiosity and solid basic knowledge. He has almost 100% unlocked level 0 witchcraft library. He has rich experience in experiments and has handled countless customers through his hands.
Most importantly, Hayden has no power behind him.
Thor lowered his hand and crossed his index fingers.
"Senior Hayden, let me give you a choice. Do you want to leave the Wizard Tower at the age of thirty, or do you want to work hard in the last two years and hit the third level?" Thor's question made
Hayden's restraint loosen for so many years. But thinking about his own situation, he became discouraged again.
"Saul, I am already 28 this year. The two years you mentioned are really only two years."
Saul did not force Hayden. He looked back at the human body display cabinets all over the wall, "If you change your mind, , if you want to give it a last try, you can come to me."
Thor walked out the door, "If you want to try, you can put an eye outside the door. I saw it and came back to find you." "
You? You want to help me?" Hayden took a breath and looked at Sol, who was only fourteen years old, thought it was a bit ridiculous, but he couldn't help but want to believe it.
"Try your best." Thor shrugged and opened the door to the corpse room.
His white joints stood out against the scarlet door.
After leaving the corpse room, Thor saw that it was almost time and went to Ku Jin's dormitory to make an appointment that implied a conspiracy.
"Your eyes..." Ku Jin opened the door and saw Thor, who was fine yesterday, turned into a one-eyed dragon today.
"A little experimental accident, it doesn't matter." Thor said casually.
When Thor entered the room, Kujin closed the door directly from the outside, leaving himself outside.
Sol was startled, and immediately turned around to open the door.
When his hand touched the doorknob, a voice came from the direction of the bedroom.
"Don't be nervous. Ku Jin didn't come in because I am the one who wants to discuss cooperation with you."
He turned around and saw Ferguson who had taken off his pants last night.
Sol's face showed appropriate confusion and vigilance, "Senior, who are you? Do you have anything to do with me?" "
Sit down." Ferguson pointed to the tables and chairs in the living room, "I am used to sitting down and talking." "
It's because Can't you stand?" Sol thought to himself, hesitantly walking to the chair closest to the door and sitting down.
Ferguson chose a seat opposite Saul and sat down, looking like he was about to negotiate.
"I don't know what you are capable of. You can actually take Culkin's position for several years." Ferguson raised his chin and looked at Saul, "But there has always been an agreement between Culkin and I. I will provide credits or other If Ku Jin needs something, Ku Jin will provide me with materials unique to the second warehouse."
So straightforward?
Saul puffed up his chest, "That was the transaction between you and Ku Jin. Now that he has left the warehouse, I am not able to continue the transaction with you like him." Saul did not say anything stupidly, "
You are stealing from the warehouse." Materials?"
It's okay to act stupid, but if it's too stupid, it's fake.
Ferguson didn't mince words, "What are your concerns?"
"Metal door, since you have done the transaction, you should know that the door will automatically determine the content of the task. Things that have not been written with a communication pen cannot be transported out of the warehouse."
"We can help you solve the transportation problem. So what other questions do you have?"
Us?
Did he secretly tell me that Ku Jin was among them, or was there another partner?
Thor pondered for a few seconds, "What can you provide?"
"The most basic magic crystals, credits, and since you have accepted the task of the warehouse, you will definitely not be able to go out for a long time, so the outing task will basically not be available to you. If you have If you need something that is not available in the wizard tower, you can ask me and I can help you find it."
Thor crossed his arms and leaned on the back of the chair, thinking to himself, "The pie is quite round."
" So what do you need me to transport? Let me declare in advance that I will not touch anything with a number, even if you promise to help me solve the corresponding troubles." Ferguson's hand tapped lightly on the armrest, "We naturally
taboo I won't touch it. I just want some ordinary things. We want to cooperate for a long time."
This time, it was Sol who started to think about it.
"How can I guarantee that people won't secretly report me after trading with you?"
"Hahaha..." Ferguson leaned back, "What's the use of reporting? As long as you say you used it yourself, will the mentor still do it?" Are there missing materials if you go one by one?"
Ferguson raised a finger to Saul and shook it gently, "You don't have to think about reporting it. Firstly, we have been doing this for many years, and secondly, the mentor actually knows about it. We are not greedy either. I won't touch the mentors' bottom line foolishly."
It seems that these guys have really been smuggling materials for a long time, but I'm afraid some of those words just now were meant for Thor.
Even if Saul did not overhear the conversation between the two, he would not accept Ferguson's words in full.
"I know about this, but I need some time to think about it." Saul glanced at the hourglass clock on the wall and stood up. "It's almost three o'clock. I'm going back to the warehouse." Ferguson didn't stand up, but
he His face became slightly gloomier, and he folded his hands to cover his mouth.
"Thor, I think there is one thing you must understand. We are not wandering wizards or lone wolves in the wasteland. It is normal to cooperate in the short or long term to achieve certain goals. Otherwise, why do you think Mr. Gorsa Wizard Want to build a wizard tower? A person's power is limited after all."
Thor lowered his head slightly, "I understand what you mean, but it is also because I consider cooperation, so I am more cautious. If I agree to everything easily, you will too Are you worried that I'm cheating?"
Saul asked again, "What do you want?"
Ferguson pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "In order to keep it confidential, I will only tell you the moment before you enter the warehouse. If If you haven't left the warehouse for a long time, or you didn't bring what we need when you came out, our transaction will be terminated immediately."
Not giving Saul time to prepare was obviously to prevent him from having time to play tricks.
But they didn't know that Thor had already heard their plan.
Thor stood up with his knees supported and said: "Well, it seems that what you want is not simple."
Ferguson's expression froze. He didn't want Thor to think so, and quickly explained, "Materials that can enter the wizard tower warehouse. Of course there is nothing simple. I didn't tell you in advance because I was afraid of any accidents."
He tried to change the subject.
"You'd better not waste our time too long. Give us an answer before tomorrow night, otherwise we may change our partner."
Sol's smile instantly cooled, "Change? How? Are you threatening me?
" A second-level apprentice asked, and Ferguson's anger boiled over. But when he pressed his hands on the armrests and tried to stand up, his movements changed from supporting to holding.
"It's not a threat." He suppressed his anger and held the armrest tightly, as if he wanted to break it. "It's just a necessary reminder."
After Ferguson surrendered, Saul's face changed instantly and he smiled: "Thank you, senior, for reminding me, then. I'm leaving first."
But this time he didn't promise that he would think about it carefully.
