Chapter 137 Cooperation? trade!
"Yeah."
Link nodded, saying nothing in particular.
But his tone and demeanor showed that he had indeed listened to Jasmine's words.
This made Jasmine feel better.
"Everyone, let's take a rest and recharge our batteries. We'll fight again tomorrow."
Link waved to everyone happily eating melons, indicating that that's it for today and everything is over.
Hurry back to your tents and go to bed early.
Everyone was still unsatisfied and returned to the tent area reluctantly.
Watching the ambiguous relationship between the boss and the eldest sister is much more fun than brainstorming to save this messed up world.
By the way, the sloppy round shot that the eldest sister hit just now was really good.
That means meeting a big boss, otherwise who can bear it?
Jasmine pursed her lips a few times, and finally swallowed what she wanted to say.
She glanced deeply at Link, turned back to her tent, got into her sleeping bag, covered her head and fell asleep.
If the words are not spoken, you are the master of them.
Once the words are spoken, you become a slave to them.
Link once told her.
Now, she has to use the principles Link taught her to control her emotions.
Emmm...
Be self-reliant and self-reliant, don't worry about the love between children.
Link entered the tent, his consciousness sank into the sea of consciousness, he reflected on himself in the memory palace, then meditated deeply, and then fell asleep.
Unknowingly, the small transformation of the sea of consciousness has ended.
Link is now a genuine and genuine third-class wizard apprentice.
You can now practice the third level of "Meditating on the Mutual Generation of Water and Wood" and continue to accumulate spiritual power to 99 points.
Afterwards, he transferred to the fourth level of the "Meditation Method of Water and Wood Coexistence" and shaped the rune structure of the meditation method into a round ball. Then he can try to
inscribe the natal witchcraft, prepare for the leap in the essence of life, and launch an impact on being promoted to a formal wizard.
After the small transformation of the Consciousness Sea, what changes did it bring to Link?
The mental power and magic power are still the same as yesterday, there is no qualitative change.
The space of the Consciousness Sea has been further opened up. Not only has it become larger, it can accommodate more spiritual power and more runes, it is also stronger and can withstand the impact of the transition of the essence of life.
In terms of strength, there is no essential difference between third-class wizard apprentices and second-class wizard apprentices, except that they can use more witchcraft at one time.
Link was still the same Link he was yesterday. He didn't become invincible as a first-level wizard just because he was promoted to third-level wizard apprentice.
Hmm...
In a sorcery duel alone, Link can shout out who else.
If you include runic items and witchcraft, facing a powerful person like Iris Clark, Link would have no choice but to turn around and run away.
Money can change your life, that's what they say.
A sound sleep all night.
The next day, Link woke up on time.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, he greeted Lin En who was on duty for the next shift, and Link took a look at the real-time reconnaissance screen of the circular flying saucer.
After confirming that no one was lurking around to observe, Link took away the two reconnaissance puppets and left the tunnel.
The sooner you do some things, the better, such as a short separation, something neat and tidy.
So as not to tug and pull and affect your mood.
When he came to the riverside, Link looked far into the distance and felt relieved as he watched the river flowing eastward.
It was still too depressing in the tunnel.
Link was somewhat affected.
Although "Occlumency" can ignore this, if you can be in a good mood, who wants to be poker-faced all day long?
Choosing a place where the water flow was relatively gentle, Link began to cross the river.
He first turned on the levitation function of the boots and cloak of the "Defender 3202" suit, and the whole person floated into the air, keeping the height above the ground at about 5 centimeters.
With a thought, pseudo-natal witchcraft, "double casting" and "parallel casting".
The four water shield techniques that reached the level of "innovating the old and bringing forth the new" were quietly executed. Two double-layered nested water shields appeared, one in front of the other, spread across the river.
The water shield clings to the roaring river water.
Link stepped on the water shield behind him with his left foot. With a little help, he moved his body forward and stepped on the water shield in front of him with his right foot.
Continue to lean forward with your center of gravity, lift your left foot, and move forward with the water shield.
The two double-layered water shields seemed to be firmly stuck to Link's feet.
With the levitation function of the "Defender 3202" suit boots and cloak, it can carry Link across the river and quickly travel to the other side of the river.
Like a dragonfly touching water, his steps are light.
From a distance, Link looks like the young hero described in martial arts novels from his previous life.
He has a handsome figure and outstanding lightness skills.
He stepped on the water with his feet and easily crossed a wide river.
The ferocious beast entrenched in the river expressed dissatisfaction.
This is my territory. Do you want to go there without paying some protection fees?
They all jumped out of the water and attacked Link.
But what greeted them was a heavy blow to the head.
After unlocking the ability to meditate at any time in daily life, the most important thing Link now lacks is magic power and the number of spells he can cast.
The "continuous casting" technique was also used.
Double-layered water shields appeared one after another.
Either it sticks to Link's feet, replacing the disappeared predecessors, and carries it across the river;
or it knocks the heads of ferocious beasts in the water head-on, knocking them back into the river.
It doesn't matter if the double-layer water shield is broken, there will be a subsequent shield.
One water shield shattered, and thousands of water shields followed.
In this way, Link crossed the river safely and came to the riverside.
The two reconnaissance puppets flew out from behind themselves and began to conduct reconnaissance.
Link took a look at the real-time reconnaissance screen and noticed something strange on the hill where the ropes were tied the day before yesterday.
After confirming that there was no ambush, Link carefully walked towards the hill.
The journey was smooth and no pitfalls were encountered.
Under the boulder where the rope was tied, there was a line of writing. The handwriting was delicate, but it revealed a strong sense of resentment.
Link recognized it at a glance. It was left by Lanny Taylor. The specific time was unknown.
But most likely it was before the private message exchange.
The content of the message is:
Link Grande, no matter what misunderstandings there are between us, everything still has to focus on the two-district competition and the Paro Wizard bet. I implore you to seriously consider it, join hands with me, and cooperate sincerely. I can guarantee that I and my companions will obey your command.
The signature is: Lanie Taylor.
After reading the message, Link was speechless.
In other words, there is no such thing as abacus in the wizarding world.
Otherwise, Lani's wishful thinking would have been slapped on Link's face.
They are all thousand-year-old foxes, what kind of fairy tales are they playing?
If Lanie Taylor really wanted to team up with Link, she wouldn't do this.
This message, like the previous private message, was prepared for possible accountability, so as to put the blame on Link.
"Too many eyes."
After a brief comment, Link left without any disturbance in his heart.
Leaving the riverside and walking some distance away, Link did some operations on his watch, and then sent two announcements in succession on the camp channel:
major progress, and completion is expected.
Wait for three days and good news will come.
Link what does this mean?
This is making a nest and preparing to fish.
Afterwards, he switched to private chat mode and sent a message to Iris Clark: We have something to discuss. Can we meet in person?
Ignoring more than a dozen private messages that came one after another, Lin Kejing waited for Iris's reply.
Soon, Iris directly sent a request for mutual positioning.
Link decisively agreed.
Hey, the two of them are not far apart.
Link looked at the direction, compared it with the incomplete version of the "world" map in his mind, and recognized where Iris was.
There is a forest there, with tall trees and dense bushes.
I've passed by there before and didn't notice anything different.
Looking back now, everything seems wrong.
Generally speaking, when trees are placed close together, they will compete for sunlight, water, and soil nutrients.
It is impossible for every tree to grow tall and straight.
There are always trees that have not been snatched away from brothers and sisters, and they are all crooked and out of shape.
Or simply die young.
But in that forest, at first glance from the outside, there wasn't even a single crooked tree, with its roots straight and straight.
Even the shrubs underneath are growing extremely lush.
Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Link walked towards the woods.
The map is in his mind and he is familiar with the terrain; the scout puppets surround him to eliminate dangers.
Link travels very fast.
It only took less than an hour to arrive near the woods.
As soon as they got close, before Link could contact her with his watch, Iris flew in front of him.
"What good thing are you looking for me in such a hurry?"
Iris changed her outfit, wearing camouflage that was suitable for jungle operations, and had a few streaks of oil paint on her face.
In conjunction with the function of concealed witchcraft, it is very difficult to identify when hidden in the jungle.
"It's true that something happened, but I don't know if it's good or bad for you."
Link didn't resort to cajoling, he got straight to the point and said directly, "I really found a way to complete the camp mission, but our team's capabilities are limited. , if you do it alone, maybe you can finish it in the end, but it will take a long time. I'm afraid something might change in the middle." "
Well."
Iris came online rationally and asked calmly, "So you want to contact me through me? Some North District apprentices, it is better to be half-blood, not pure-blood?"
Link replied: "Half-blood, pure-blood, this is your division, I don't understand. I only have one request, that is, 'pure-blood' Except members of Will."
"I understand."
Iris nodded, thoughtfully and enlightened.
After a while, she put her right thumb and index fingers into her mouth and blew a sharp, high-pitched whistle.
Psychic power and magic are applied in the whistle.
It makes the whistle sound spread far and wide.
After a while, five boys and girls also dressed in jungle costumes flew over.
These people are all in trenches, and everyone wears a pair of boots that can fly around.
Envy Link.
"Iris, what do you say?"
A tall and handsome young man walked up to Iris, stood side by side, and asked softly, even with the oil paint on his face.
He didn't even look at Link the whole time, his thoughts were on Iris.
Link felt a faint sense of hostility.
Iris's perception was also very keen, and she immediately glared at the young man with dissatisfaction and said, "Don't do this nonsense, I'm here to seek cooperation." After saying that, she was still not relieved and punched the young man in the face
. abdomen.
The young man refused to dodge and took the punch forcefully. He chuckled and said, "Don't I care too much about you?" "
Huh..."
Iris shivered and seemed to be numb. Some couldn't stand the young man's direct words, "You guys chat, I'm leaving."
After saying these words, Iris disappeared in a whoosh.
"Hello, I am Munro Briceño."
After Iris left, the young man immediately returned to his smart and capable image, grinned in a friendly manner, and took the initiative to extend his right hand.
"Link Grande."
Without reaching out to hit the smiling man, Link briefly shook hands with the young Munro.
"How do you want to cooperate with us? Continue to let us be thugs and hold back the other party's people?"
Munro Briceño withdrew his right hand, his tone was still gentle, but his words were very sharp.
It directly exposes Link's little tricks in the camp channel and private chat channel.
Link never thought that his thoughts could be hidden from everyone.
It's normal to be seen through.
"It depends on how you choose."
Link said calmly, without the slightest embarrassment of being exposed.
"Oh?"
Munro became slightly interested.
To be honest, if Iris hadn't been the matchmaker, he wouldn't have been prepared to meet Link, let alone cooperate.
Yesterday, I saw four announcements posted by Link on the camp channel, I saw the private chat between Iris and Link, and I saw the same message that another companion later received.
Munro could tell that Link was deeply wary of the local apprentices in the North District, even if they were from the same camp.
How can we work together if we are wary?
Cooperation is naturally out of the question.
However, after Iris received Link's private message this morning, she repeatedly insisted on meeting him.
This is the basis for dialogue.
Munro put away his hostility and asked: "Tell me in detail?"
Link replied:
"If you are willing to do research and experiments, I can share some ideas with you. Of course, this is not free, you need to get it Produce some valuable information or exchange artifacts.
If you are unwilling to do research and experiments, I can also share other ideas with you for free, so that you can deal with the opposition camp." "It's a bit interesting."
Munro
felt When Link spoke with confidence and confidence, his interest suddenly increased, "I want both ideas! Make a price!" He asked
Link to give a price so boldly, as if he was willing to give "money" at any time, which means What are you wearing?
It means that Munro Briceño does not want to cooperate, but to make a deal.
Cooperation creates camaraderie.
At the last moment, after the camp wins, it’s hard to backstab someone while competing for personal results!
The transaction is more pure.
At that time, we will take action when it is time to take action, no matter how heavy the strike is, no matter how dark the means, there will be no burden in our hearts.
Link understood Munro's intention and was not surprised at all.
Why didn't he think so?
"I need some experimental equipment, whether it's for botany, zoology, or microbiology."
Link first put forward his own needs.
"No problem."
Munro waved his hand and said, "I can give you a complete set, as long as the ideas you give are worth the price."
Link smiled and said directly without going around in circles: "I wonder if you have found some relics that tell the story of how this world is on the verge of destruction and why.
We discovered that a god-slayer once appeared in this world and started a thousand-year war with the gods of this world.
In the end, the gods fell, mankind was destroyed, and the origin of the world was severely damaged and on the verge of destruction.
This has also led to the current unbalanced ecology of this world and various abnormalities.
For example, the woods behind you reflect this. "
While speaking, Link had been carefully observing Munro's eyes and face, trying to see some reaction.
However, Munro always maintained a faint smile without any change.
He had a good character and a good reputation.
Link turned off . Pry into the other party's psychology and throw out the real information:
"Saving the world and destroying the world are actually two sides of the same coin.
The true meaning of the mission of the opposing camp is to destroy first and then save.
The true meaning of our mission between the positive and negative camps can be to destroy and save at the same time.
I call it devastating salvation. "
After a pause, Link emphasized:
"As long as we get ahead of the opposition camp and destroy everything that needs to be destroyed, we will win for sure. "
Follow the path of others and leave others with nowhere to go!
