Chapter 289 Thieves Guild

"Goudan, please go back first. Pay attention to safety on the road. You'd better eat the ingredients you bought in the future."

Although Tao Yu received a lifetime discount of 10% compensation from the store, he still felt that the outside world was still a bit unreliable.

The store owner was also a victim in this matter, but Tao Yu didn't do anything to them.

"Okay, pay attention to safety. I heard that the Thieves Guild is very chaotic."

Wang Goudan has never been in contact with the Thieves Guild, and he always focuses on safety when doing tasks. However, he often hangs out in the task hall, so he still knows a little bit about the news.

Precisely because he heard it was very messy, he didn't try to make extra money.

Even Wang Goudan, a mid-level partner, did not dare to go there easily. Even if it was because he was safe enough, he could initially tell that most of the people hanging around the Thieves Guild were ruthless characters.

For example, the original Catwoman An Nan, although she was very well-behaved after being subdued in front of Tao Yu, was also a person with blood on her hands.

It is common for wanted criminals to appear in the Thieves Guild, but there are no senior partners who stay in the Thieves Guild to make extra money. This shows that the risks outweigh the benefits!

"Chaos? Chaos is good..."

Tao Yu's eyes became a little deeper...

…

In the dark alley, even the street lights are broken, and the flashing electric fire from time to time makes the place look a bit eerie.

It was obviously out of place with the bright lights of the street next door.

Tao Yu came here wearing a partner's cloak and a mask, and also found the sewer entrance that the captain had mentioned before.

Because there was a guy in black robes coming out of the sewer entrance of an uninhabited alley in front of him. When he saw Tao Yu, his eyes were wary and he left in a hurry.

But the next moment, he felt someone tap him on the shoulder.

Before he could react, his whole body was numb and he completely lost control of himself.

This made the man horrified, and he who could still speak quickly uttered words of begging for mercy.

"Grandpa, please forgive me, I am not the person you are looking for."

The guy who was caught knew that there was actually a tacit understanding between the thieves' union and there would be no disputes about the entrances and exits that would be temporarily changed every month.

Although it is not absolute, most people will generally abide by this except for a few unruly young people and lunatics.

Because the core of the Thieves Guild cannot deal with all those who do not follow the rules, but it will randomly select some people to use as rafts.

Often, people who cause trouble in the Thieves Guild appear to be fine on the spot, but a few months later their bodies are found soaking in the sewers passing by the Thieves Guild.

This is also the reason why senior partners don’t come to stay.

It’s hard to get ahead, but you’re stupid enough to risk your life.

Besides, everyone who comes to this kind of place has a lot of brushes and is very vigilant. No one can guarantee that they will not overturn.

Go over and say hello, and then the other party will throw all kinds of deadly methods at you, and you may be in trouble.

Examples of the weak defeating the strong are commonplace in the hands of these people in the Thieves Guild.

An Nan has even assassinated a senior partner, but her overall strength is still far behind the threshold of a senior partner.

The basic physical body cannot carry bullets.

But in this situation, if you encounter a few strong dragons crossing the river, there will be no way.

The Thieves Guild is not invincible, and it has even been thwarted by some strong men on several occasions.

It's just that the Thieves Guild model is prone to resurgence, and it has a flexible bottom line and will compromise with the strong.

Now he was caught at the door, and it was obvious that he was not a stupid young man or a lunatic. The gap in strength between him was almost instantaneous, which made him completely give in.

"Don't be afraid, tell me what's going on inside and I'll let you go..."

Tao Yu spoke in a gentle voice as much as possible, but because his voice had changed, it was a bit hoarse, so this "gentleness" sounded like a devil's whisper in the other person's ears.

"First of all, sir, if this is your first time coming to the Thieves Guild, having a token of introduction will save you a lot of trouble. I, I can be your introducer. This is my token."

To hang out in a place like this, in addition to not being too weak, observing words and emotions can be said to be a necessary skill.

Just hearing Tao Yu's inquiry, I probably made a rough guess. This big shot probably rarely comes here.

Maybe he just wanted to come in to learn some secret information, or maybe he was offered a reward and came to take a look.

When your strength reaches a certain level, it is easier and more convenient to obtain information through the official than the Thieves Guild...

…

"It's okay."

Tao Yu jumped down from the entrance of the sewer. According to the other party, the location of the Thieves Guild is often moved. The token is actually a bit similar to a BB machine, which can simply receive group radio encrypted messages, usually some changes of location. of.

Moreover, the Thieves Guild is actually far less powerful than some mysterious killer organizations. Compromising with the strong is commonplace, and even the information obtained from the opponent's mouth seems a bit cowardly.

Typical powerful verifiers, generally speaking, those that can be hanged out by the Thieves Guild are mostly guys who are not top-notch in strength, and the consequences of killing them are usually mediocre.

Tao Yu originally thought that something was wrong. She was protected by her Sun siblings, but then she thought that she was just a worker. She could have some influence while she was alive, but if the assassination was successful, that would be it. .

It's a bit troublesome, but it's within the acceptable range of the Thieves Guild.

In fact, there is still a difference between himself and the children of those inner city aristocratic families.

The advantage is that the conflicts will be concentrated on me, so my family will not be implicated before I am resolved, but the disadvantage is that I don’t have a solid family to back me up.

If there is a chance to kill me without leaving any traces, there will be many people willing to try.

For example, the wild boar man at the beginning, and the lizard glutton was willing to avenge the "friend of life and death" after the conflict was triggered. In fact, it is all like this. The ability and privileges brought are all on me.

What makes Tao Yu feel a little funny is that the Thieves Guild has only been restarted not long ago.

The last time, the president of Chaoyang Society came to argue and directly overturned it. It was only recently reopened, and then all the assassination business related to Chaoyang Society was gone.

When Tao Yu heard this, he felt a little unexpected, but also felt that it was reasonable.

If they are not smooth, then as long as the Thieves Guild cannot become the strongest, it will be destroyed sooner or later.

On the contrary, their current reputation seems normal.

But there is one thing that the Thieves Guild is doing very well at present, that is, their task is anonymous system, and they also have the ability to store willpower remotely in the same city.

"Public credibility actually relies on the 'gods', which is quite interesting. No wonder it can be so prosperous. Aren't you afraid that the Thieves Guild will directly eat the reward for the bounty?"

Tao Yu looked a little strange.

The Thieves Guild mainly relies on the 'God of Wealth', which is one of the righteous gods born by the will of the world and can be visualized by meditation.

It has no will of its own, but has corresponding constraints.

The most important thing is that the 'God of Wealth' can store willpower. As long as there is a carving master who can carve a statue of the God of Wealth, it can complete the remote storage, but the 'God of Wealth' will charge a 10% commission every time.

Generally speaking, companies would rather set up their own willpower payment system than choose the God of Wealth, but the Thieves Guild is different.

The task mode is also very simple. The advance deposit of willpower takes the form of two secret keys, one in the Thieves Guild and one in the hands of the task publisher, and is stored in advance in the statue of the ‘God of Wealth’.

If the task is completed, the publisher will send the secret key after confirmation.

You can also withdraw the task, but there will be a 10% loss of willpower and a commission from the Thieves Guild.

However, there will be a few days of ‘cooling-off period’ for withdrawal, mainly to prevent the publisher from taking advantage of the time difference to withdraw the task in advance after the task is completed.

At the same time, there are also chaos in this task, such as the Thieves Guild’s key holder being beaten to death.

However, because there are constraints on either party and the Thieves Guild has a certain ability to retaliate, this kind of thing is still a low-probability event.

The Thieves Guild is a smooth guild that is good at compromise and has a very flexible bottom line.

It is not uncommon for a powerful victim to come to the door and start to trouble the task publisher in turn!

Therefore, there is usually a potential upper limit to the tasks that the Thieves Guild can undertake.

Whether it is the Thieves Guild’s own caution or the task publisher’s caution, this point will be taken into consideration.

Risks are borne by yourself...
