Chapter 540 Raising the Price

Grace immediately retorted: "It's not the dead that rule the living, but the common lords of the living and the dead. Teacher Arms uses the dead to protect the living. His rule over Ivanso is not taken by violence, but Ivanso's." Elected jointly by the living people. As for the will of the gods, if the gods did not allow Mr. Arms to do this, they would have already sent down divine punishment. You are just using the name of the gods to convey your voice. You are the only one who can do it. Blasphemous."

Her rebuttal was not only clear and coherent, but also a counterattack with sticks and sticks, directly questioning Veranika's beliefs.

Veranika did not fall into her topic trap and argue with her about the issue of faith, but continued to bite on the issue of their governance, "There is no need to beautify yourself. When the whole city is surrounded by the undead, those living people want to avoid it." Being transformed into an undead, I can only recommend you."

The main meaning of their dispute is that teachers should be famous.

As long as the orthodoxy and rationality of their rule are denied, the conqueror's army attacking Ivanso is a just cause, not just for conquest and invasion, and is not easily subject to joint resistance from other cities.

"There is no basis for saying this kind of thing. You can go to Ivanso to experience it for yourself. It is the city with the lowest crime rate in the entire Dragon Coast. We have driven away all the bandits, slave traders, assassins and cultists. Grace said with a proud look, "Look at all the cities on the Dragon Coast, which one is ruled by living people? They are only ruled by a group of bandits and slaves? Dealers, assassins or cultists, they are the ones who need to be rescued. "

Although Grace has been putting gold on her face, her evil nature has been revealed in one sentence. For the safety of Ivanso, she doesn't mind selling other cities.

Gavin waved his hand at Veranika, indicating that there was no need to continue this verbal dispute, and asked: "What kind of trade do you mean by trade just now?"

This kind of thing can never be resolved because they all firmly believe that they are the right side.

The most important thing is that their strategy for Ivanso has not been completely settled, and it is just preliminary contact now.

When they actually decide on a military strategy, even if they have no name, they can still create it artificially.

It is better to see first what kind of conditions the other party will offer.

After all, it all comes down to profit.

"We are willing to pay 2,000 gold coins for the corpses of ordinary trolls in the hands of adults, and the noble trolls that are specialties from the Giant Plains are 20,000 gold coins each. We can also buy the corpses of demons and monsters from ten to a thousand gold coins. The price." Grace made the first transaction cleanly.

This deal did not surprise Gavin. For ordinary people, those corpses were a lot of trouble, and if they were not handled properly, they would cause a lot of zombies.

For the Necromancer, it is a precious treasure. The more powerful the corpse, the higher the value.

I believe they buy troll corpses not to refine alchemy potions, but to create unique and powerful troll undead.

The price is directly twice as high as what City Lord Raymond asked. Although the price will be higher than this after it is made into alchemical medicine, it needs to be divided with Raymond, and it requires a series of tedious business operations such as production and sales. It is far less expensive. Selling corpses is a clean process.

Gavin shook his head without hesitation and said: "Sorry, we have no way to conduct this transaction with you, not to mention that we have disposed of all the corpses on the spot. Even if we didn't, we would not conduct this kind of transaction with you. "

There is some money that can be made, and there is some money that cannot be made. Even if it is the same as picking up for free, trading corpses with the necromancer falls into the latter category.

This will label yourself as evil, and it will be extremely difficult to clear yourself and prove yourself.

"That's a pity." Grace said with regret, "The other deal is that I hope you won't be confused by those so-called Avengers and become hostile to Ivanso.

As long as your army does not approach Ivanso, we will open the city gates and allow you to send small groups of people into the city. We will recruit those living people who are willing to follow you to migrate and join your army. When you set off, we will also Millions of supplies will be donated to help you reach your destination smoothly. "

This transaction can no longer be called a transaction, but a unilateral benefit, with only one purpose, that is, the conqueror's army should not attack Ivanso.

"Are there any others?" Gavin then asked.

"That's all for now. If you have any other needs or opinions, you can bring them up for discussion. I come here with enough sincerity." Grace replied respectfully.

"I have felt the sincerity of Lord Arms. I will consider it carefully. You go to rest first and I will get back to you later." Gavin nodded to Veranika.

Grace could only stand up and resign. The conqueror was not only younger than she thought, but also more difficult to deal with than she thought.

From beginning to end, it was tepid and watertight.

She couldn't get anything useful from him at all, not to mention the promise, even the true thoughts, she didn't get the slightest bit of it, including her own unique special ability, which was completely ignored. She was completely led by the other party.

The other party's prestigious reputation is not a fluke, but a person with real talent and learning.

Coupled with what she saw and heard in the conqueror's army these days, Grace only felt weak in her heart. If there was no way to impress the other party, let him avoid Ivanso.

The only thing I'm afraid of here is that things have to change, and they are among those who will be replaced.

Only ten meters out of the main tent, Grace narrowed her eyes involuntarily. There was a dangerous light inside. Under the guidance of a female mage, two familiar figures were walking towards the tent.

These two people were none other than Yeshandara and Fan Ruina, the two leaders of the Avengers of the Ivanso Resistance.

Grace had known for a long time that these two old rivals were also in the army of conquerors, but they had never met each other. They were consciously separated.

At this time, there was a sudden encounter and a face-to-face meeting.

It was definitely not a mistake in the work of the conqueror army, but a deliberate arrangement.

Grace had to praise the opponent's skill in her heart. In this way, the army of conquerors would be a rare commodity. The two sides were no longer fighting to favor one side, but needed to ensure that he would not fall to the other side.

This is an out-and-out conspiracy, which is difficult to break.

Sometimes the key to breaking the situation lies not in yourself, but in the enemy's stupidity.

Grace's mind was spinning very fast, and she figured out all the joints in an instant. She greeted the two opponents with a smile and said, "It's been a long time since I last saw you two ladies. How are you? I don't know if Ms. Yeshandara's injury has healed." No? The corpse poison carried by Lady Agatha was carefully prepared by Teacher Arms. It cannot be cured by ordinary detoxification or restoration techniques. As long as you can disband the Avengers, I guarantee that Teacher will be willing to give you the antidote. ”

Grace's words were obviously knowingly asking questions and deliberately irritating the other party.

The woman named Yeshandara was not only green all over, but also had a terrifying claw mark on her face. From the corner of her right eyebrow to her left lip, it was as deep as the bone. It was all turned out, green and black. , and even smelly juice flowed out of it.

That kind of terrifying situation makes even the timid people dare not look directly at it.

But this person has a figure like a devil. Her legs are tall and long but not thin. Her waist is as slender as that of the skinny beauty Grace. However, the plumpness of her upper body is not comparable to hers. She stands proudly upward.

But the more this happened, the greater the psychological impact he received when his eyes fell on her terrifying face.

Yeshandara remained unmoved, but the girl named Fan Ruina next to her was furious. She instinctively touched her bow backwards, but found nothing.

Then I remembered that in order to show respect, in the army of conquerors, their main battle weapons were voluntarily disarmed.

But it doesn't matter if she doesn't have weapons. She still has hands and feet. In terms of close combat ability, she is a quasi-legendary ranger and is definitely better than a necromancer. Killing her is a matter of minutes.

But she was firmly grasped by a big hand like a pair of iron pliers. Who else could it be if it weren't for Yessandra? This woman with a devilish figure and a face as terrifying as a devil shook her head and said, "Don't forget her." Nickname, when the death viper starts to hiss, there must be a conspiracy. She is deliberately irritating us and making us act irrationally to offend the owner here.

This also fully demonstrated her guilty conscience. She did not get what she wanted here.

And as long as we let the master here recognize our just cause, it will be the best counterattack against her and her master. Don't lose the big for the small. "

Yessandra was preaching to Fan Ruina, but also a counterattack against Grace, saying that she had seen through her little thoughts.

Grace, however, was not too disappointed that her plan was revealed. She said calmly: "Ms. Yeshandara, you are still as confident as ever. Be careful that this kind of confidence will make you doomed. Next time, you won't be so lucky. Then I'm here , I wish you success in advance.”

"I don't need your blessing, I will succeed." A sense of confidence came from within, filling Yeshandara's body and mind.

"Ha..." Grace sneered, "Not everyone will accept your hypocritical words of justice. It is just your wishful thinking, forcing your own wishes on others."

"It's not us who impose our wishes on others, but you! People in Ivansu only have fear of you who dare to be angry but dare not speak out, rather than respect from the heart..."

Seeing that they were showing signs of arguing on the spot, Veranika reminded her kindly: "Two ladies, the lord is still waiting for you!"

This chance encounter was naturally carefully arranged by her, but it was enough to stop there. It was impossible for them to really let them fight here. That would not be in the interests of the conqueror's army.

"Ma'am, please continue to lead the way." Yeshandara gave up the verbal dispute in a good-natured manner. Anyway, they were arguing again and again.

If they could really make sense, they wouldn't be at war with each other.

Conspiracies are worthless once they are exposed.

As an expert in conspiracy, Grace obviously knew this very well. She stopped making unnecessary attempts and took the initiative to get out of the way. It was just the smile on her pretty face that made people angry, especially the hot-tempered Fan Ruina. If it weren't for Ye Before Sandara could let go of her hand, she might have punched her.

There was also an exchange of people on the side of the conqueror's army. Grace was taken away by the female mage who had just taken office, while Yeshandara and Fan Ruina were handed over to Veranika to take back to the coach's camp.

The opening remarks that followed were no different from those when receiving Grace.

Yesandala and Fan Ruina introduced themselves as representing the living and dead in Avanso, and they were the avengers against the terrorist rulers, and they would drive the evil that enveloped the city out of here.

In their attitude towards them, both Gavin and Veronica were much gentler, and some things were done in a roundabout way, not as straightforward as they were towards Grace.

Because these people's actions represent justice and the reasonable demands of the living.

Most importantly, Gavin also has a piece of intelligence belonging to the future - the two people in front of him belong to the future masters of Avanso, one is the future city lord of Avanso, and the other is the future captain of the guard of Avanso.

When Gavin previously decided on the northern end of the Giant Plains of the Migration Road and the warhorse trading point in Anfield Village, he chose Avanso without hesitation, which was subconsciously considering Avanso to be under the rule of these two people.

Although Avanso under their rule is not the pearl of the Dragon Coast, it is also a rare safe and fair place. At least the large-scale transactions on the surface can be guaranteed.

Especially Vanreena, she is not the childish look she is now. Her hot temper of hating evil and pursuing the murderer at all costs is not only famous throughout the Dragon Coast, but also very famous in the Valley. Gavin, as one of the ace fighters of the Zhentarim, had fought with her several times, openly or secretly, and even had a brief cooperation in dealing with the Dragon Worship Cult.

The meeting in this life was advanced, and they had not yet fully grown up and achieved the greatest highlight of their lives - overthrowing the necromancer regime of Avanso and becoming the ruler here.

Listening to their demands, Gavin couldn't help but sigh that things are impermanent.

After listening to their impassioned speeches, the first person to speak was still not Gavin, but Veronica. The chief of staff played the role of the bad guy conscientiously and said: "You mean, you want to borrow troops from the lord to help you overthrow the current regime of Avonso and help you seize the rule of this city, but may I ask, what benefits can we get from it?"

"How can such a just cause be measured by interests?" Mielikki's young ranger said righteously, "You will win the favor of the people of the entire Dragon Coast because of your righteous actions, and you will win the friendship of us and all the citizens of Avonso City. Isn't this enough?"

"Not enough." Veronica said coldly Smiling, she said, "Although I am not from the Dragon Coast, I am not unfamiliar with this place. The so-called righteous act you mentioned is not even as good as the cheapest goods here. Even a copper coin is too expensive. Everything has a price, but the Dragon Coast is more fair. Isn't this what you people from the Dragon Coast often say?

Miss Grace has just offered us a price. What she asked for is completely opposite to what you asked for. As long as we don't cooperate with you and don't send troops to Afonso, they will open Afonso to us and let us recruit those living people and prepare one million supplies for us afterwards."

Veronica's implication is very obvious. We don't do anything, but we have such a huge benefit.

If you want us to send troops and work, let alone lower than this price, even if it is several times higher than this price, it is an uneconomical deal for the Conqueror Army, because fighting a war costs money, and the military expenditure is very huge.

This is still on the premise that we can win. If we fail, the loss will be heavy.

"Shameless." Fan Ruina cursed angrily. As for whether she was cursing Grace who tried to bribe the Conqueror Army, or the Conqueror Army's behavior of clearly marking the price.

"Fan Ruina, control your emotions." Ye Sandala said seriously, "Why don't you apologize to the Baron and Ms. Veronica?"

"I'm not wrong." Fan Ruina raised her head, with an expression that said, "I'm not wrong, why should I apologize?"

"Apologize immediately, otherwise even if the Baron doesn't ask you to leave, I will ask you to leave first." Ye Sandala, who was surging with anger, shook the muscles on her face uncontrollably for several times, which immediately affected the terrible scar on her face. This scar was originally in a state of erosion and unscabbed, and the rotten water immediately flowed uncontrollably, which made her facial muscles twitch more violently.

Fan Ruina hurriedly took out a bottle of ointment and applied it to the scar on Ye Sandala's face while apologizing repeatedly: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, all kinds of emotions will increase the toxicity of this strange virus. I was wrong, I was wrong, I will listen to you in everything..."

After applying most of the bottle of ointment, the strange injuries on Ye Sandala's body were barely controlled, but the smell in the entire tent was unbearable, filled with the smell of corpses exposed to the sun and rotting for three days in the dog days of summer.

Smelling the strange smell floating in the air, Gavin looked thoughtful, turned his head and asked Veronica beside him a question that was completely unrelated to this meeting: "Where is Luna now?"

"In Misnoel, purifying the corrupted forest over there." Veronica controls all the teleportation resources of the entire Conqueror Army. Those who need to use the teleportation ability to enter and exit need to ask her for permission and she will arrange the teleportation.

Gavin nodded to show that he understood, then turned around and said, "Ms. Ye Sandala, may I ask how you got the scar on your face?"

"Sorry to trouble you." Yesendala wanted to show an apologetic expression, but the injuries on her face did not allow it, so she could only make her expression as solid as possible and said, "There is nothing to hide about this. I was injured by the plague bone dragon Agatha controlled by Arms. Since you have already met Grace, you should already know their identities."
