Chapter 5 Bluffing
Chapter 5 Bluff
"I didn't expect it?" Ghostsou Nobu stood up and walked to me with a proud look, then he looked up and down at my new look. "You have changed a lot. I haven't seen you for only a few weeks. Didn't you actually degenerate back to the four-legged stage?"
"Hahahaha..." A burst of laughter rang around.
"It's really a long time no see!" My body began to shrink quickly back to the human form, and at the same time took Eternity to the hand. "Last time I brought your old nest in one breath. I haven't seen it for such a long time, why? The spring breeze is blew again?"
Nobunaga Ghostou was so angry that his teeth were itchy when he heard my words, but he did not make any excuses. Just like what I did just now, I could not make any arguments, but could only interrupt them, otherwise the more I would be distracted.
"Don't you want to know how I set up this plan?"
"I can probably guess."
Nobunaga Ghostou glanced at me in confusion, guessing that such a huge plan was not simple, and he didn't expect me to guess. "Then tell me how I did it?"
"It's very simple." I pointed to the parasitic tribe next to me and said, "Since you can deceive their trust, you can naturally deceive other races. In my opinion, you gathered all the powerful personnel of several main battle races on this planet, and then asked them to take advantage of the fisherman's benefits when our country's holy beasts and demons fight. But I didn't expect that our country's national guardian beasts were so powerful that they actually brought down all the helpers you found, and chased them all the way. But you were not willing to fail, so you temporarily changed your plan and let these people lie here, because you know that the country guardian beasts lost such a big thing, so it's good that you can't catch the big ones and kill me, the small ones. Am I right?"
"How do you know that we are temporarily changing our plans?" A foolish guy next to Nobunaga Ghostou couldn't help but ask.
I smiled and said, "Don't you understand this? You are still a follower of Nobunaga Ghostoo. You really didn't learn it at all! Nobunaga Ghostoo has fought with me many times, so he knows my abilities very well. The thing that seals me already shows his understanding of me. However, Nobunaga Ghostoo cannot not know my other abilities. Even if my summoned creature is blocked, the force here alone is not enough to defeat me, at least there is no certainty of winning. Nobunaga Ghostoo will not be so reckless. I understand him. Although we are enemies, I will not deny the enemy's ability, because that is also a derogatory to myself. However, if Nobunaga Ghostoo knows that these people can't stop me, then why did he send only such a few people? Although you are not very strong, RB is a country after all.
It is definitely not a problem to get some people who can deal with me. Nobunaga Ghostou knows that there are not enough people and he has enough people to call, but he still has not found enough people. Then there is only one reason left - he has no time. This is my basis for judgment. Because you have temporarily changed your plan, you didn't expect to intercept me, the number one expert in Asia, and there was no time to mobilize enough people in haste. So even the parasitic tribe who is not very reliable in the relationship was transferred to help the battle. Otherwise, with Nobunaga Ghostou's conceit, he would not use power other than the RB people in the fight against me, because if I was defeated by people from outside forces, it would prove that the RB people were useless. I am right? Nobunaga Ghostou?"
"I have to admit that you are very smart. But your intelligence has ended here." Ghostsou Nobu clapped his hands smugly, and a large number of RB players suddenly rushed in from behind him. Although his profession is relatively messy, we can judge from the ninjas and RB samurai, which account for a large part of them. These are RB players, at least most of them are. "You did guess that we did not prepare enough personnel because of the hasty time, but you have been blocked here for so long, and all of us have arrived. Now you are dead."
"It should be that you are dead." I also clapped my hands, and a large group of people appeared outside the cave instantly, and the RB players inside were all compressed into the middle area of the cave. The crowd surrounding the RB players suddenly separated a path, and Rose and Red Moon and several main combat forces of our guild came out. "Ghost Nobunaga, is it only you who can call reinforcements? Do you think I was summoned creatures and were surrounded by people, and will fight you to the death? I am the president of a guild, not a single-handed ranger. Of course, I have blood, but I have always kept rationality. Do you really think I would be stupid enough to fight you one by one?"
Rose standing at the entrance of the cave added for me: "Zi Ri just found out that his summoning ability was blocked and immediately notified me, so until just now he was just deliberately delaying time and waiting for our reinforcements. Unexpectedly, you were deliberately delaying time in order to wait for reinforcements. As a result, it was easy to wait for reinforcements on both sides. It's a pity that you brought too few people."
"Hmph. I miscalculated it, but so what? It's very simple for us to run away. You can't do anything to me at all!" Nobunaga Ghostou is indeed a person who often cuts off major issues. In terms of judgment, he is indeed better than his ex Masaga Matsumoto. He does not delay any slut in this kind of thing, and he will break it as soon as he says it.
Because Nobunaga Ghostou's decision was too sudden, I didn't react at all and rushed towards us.
"Where do you run?" I ignored the minions and jumped over to Ghost Nobunaga.
Nobunaga Ghostou completely ignored my attack and rushed up directly without dodging. Of course, I would not be polite. I cut him into two pieces with one knife, but the dismembered Nobunaga landed on the ground and turned into two wooden stakes. I was stunned for a moment. Nobunaga Ghostou should be an RB samurai, why did he suddenly have an extra ninja skill?
After losing the target, I quickly turned around and started looking for it, but there were RB players everywhere around me, so I really couldn't find the target. "Damn it, I actually let him run away."
I was sulking when I suddenly heard the sound of roses sounding behind me: "Honey, lie down."
I didn't even understand what it meant, so I instinctively lay down. Then I heard a bang, and a can-sized thing flew over my head and fell into the crowd ahead. As soon as the little thing landed, it stood up like a tumbler. Then a slight explosion sounded, and half of the little thing flew up. When the half flew to about two meters high, it suddenly exploded in the air. Tens of thousands of small steel beads flew in various places like raindrops, and a large number of people were instantly knocked down. There are many ninjas among the rb players. This profession is a profession that sacrifices defense for speed. The tight cloth dress on his body has almost no defense and cannot withstand such blasting weapons at all.
"Do you have sanding thunder?" A familiar voice suddenly appeared behind me, and I saw May after a while.
"Why didn't you run?" I asked as I got up from the ground.
May said with a smile: "I bumped into your reinforcements halfway through, so I'll just come back together. Today I was so open-minded. I didn't expect that your guild's guild equipment was so complete that it beat the small rb to flee."
Rose walked over from behind and said, "The RB people ran not because we had all the weapons. But today they have few people. However, our guild's weapons are indeed very complete. If you are interested, you can buy a few and try it."
I smiled and pulled the rose into my arms and said, "Don't sell it to him. I promise he definitely wants it, but he just has no money to buy it."
"How do you know I have no money? I can still take out the three or five hundred crystal coins." May's face turned red and his neck was rough.
"Hahahaha..." Rose and I laughed together.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Hahahaha! I can't stand it anymore!" I patted May's shoulder and said, "Do you know how much the scattered nail thunder just now?"
May shook his head: "I don't know. Why? Is it very expensive?"
"It's not too expensive, it's just one of two hundred crystal coins."
"Two hundred crystal coins...one?" May asked as if he was unacceptable.
I nodded: "Although you need one or two hundred crystal coins, you can knock down one or two hundred enemies with just one. On average, you only spend one or two crystal coins against a person. If you go up and fight with others, don't mention whether you fight or not, the blood bottle consumed by fighting with so many people will cost forty or fifty crystal coins? In this way, you are actually very cost-effective."
Rose added: "Don't just look at the large investment. Calculate the output and find that the return rate of high investment is actually higher. Just like the super weapon installed under Esinger, the magic crystal required for each launch is worth millions of crystal coins. But imagine how many enemies you have to destroy a city at a time? In addition, the enemy is scared by this, the actual average price to deal with an enemy may be only a few copper coins."
"It seems that my economics is really much worse than you!"
Rose suddenly said, "I heard from the son of Ye that you are studying high-energy physics. What type is it?"
"I studied electromagnetics." May said: "But biology and physics are good, too. That boy, Ye Zi, is doing well with you now, right?"
"How? Interested in joining us?"
May smiled, then pointed to the chaotic crowd ahead and asked, "The enemy is almost running away, aren't you chasing me?"
"Chasing, of course, chasing." I said, pulling out a loudspeaker crystal from the Phoenix Dragon Space and putting it in front of my mouth and shouted loudly: "Ghost Nobunaga, don't run away, I must catch you today. You still run..."
Mayyue looked at me with a puzzled look on her face, not knowing what I was doing. Actually, although I was so angry that I was screaming, I didn’t move at all. However, the RB players in the chaos didn’t have time to confirm my position, so they just ran even more panic.
I waited until the RB players ran away and explained to May: "I want to know why I just shouted to catch people but didn't move?" May nodded. I smiled and replied, "It's very simple. Because the enemy didn't know that we didn't actually come so many people."
"ah?"
I smiled and winked at Rose. Rose immediately clapped her hands. The guild staff around me were missing half of them, and only a few people were left standing there. If RB players saw our situation at this time, they would definitely shout and come back.
"You are cheating!" May finally understood. "But how did you know that there were not many reinforcements? I was with them on the road for so long, but I didn't find that many of them were illusions around me."
Rose and I just laughed, but didn't answer. Actually, I could find that there was a reason for the illusion. First, Rose winked at me from the moment she came in. With the tacit understanding between Rose and I, I could roughly guess some. In addition, since illusions are not real characters, their behavior often has patterned actions. For example, the distance between footsteps and footsteps is always the same, and the way of doing something is the same, which are all flaws. In ordinary people's eyes, these flaws are very small and are easily overlooked, so they generally do not cause exposure. However, I have an electronic brain, and my ability to analyze these subtleties is much stronger than that of normal people, so these flaws that ordinary people cannot see are as conspicuous to me as ink dots on white paper. Of course, the specific reason is that I can't tell May. Although he chased me and asked, I just smiled mysteriously and didn't say it.
Rose saw that I had almost made May funny, so she said to me: "Come on, let me introduce you to me."
"Who?" May and I asked in confusion.
Rose waved to the remaining players on our side over there, and a cute young man ran over immediately. This player not only had the logo of our guild, but also the logo of the elite. Obviously not an ordinary person. He looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, and his white and fat round face looked very fun. Otherwise, he would be afraid that others would misunderstand that I was a pervert, so he really wanted to go up and rub it a few times.
"Hello president." The child greeted me as soon as he came over.
I nodded as a response, then looked at Rose and waited for her explanation. Rose immediately said: "He is called Xinyin, and his profession is an assassin. But he has a strong ability called scene replication, which is considered a kind of illusion."
"That illusion just now..." May asked tentatively.
"It was him." Rose pushed Xinyin in front of me, and then said to Mayyue: "Sorry. Can you let us talk alone?" Mayyue nodded and walked to another place. Rose said to me: "Xinyin is Uncle Wang's son."
"Uncle Wang? Which Uncle Wang?"
"It's the colleague who saved my dad." Rose said sadly.
I instantly understood who this Uncle Wang is. Meigui once mentioned that her father had a life-saving benefactor before, and this person was the Uncle Wang of the Earth. Since this young man is the son of that person, he is the orphan of the military family.
Xinyin looked at me and said, "I heard from Sister Rongrong that I know who you are, so I joined the Frost Rose League."
I solemnly reached out and shook his hand and said, "If you have anything we can do to help, just say it."
Rose quickly regained her cheerful and happy expression and said to me: "It is because of something that I brought him to find you. When you ask me for someone, you will not be able to pull anyone out, so I brought him. I scared him away by my side."
"What exactly does Xinyin need me to do?"
Xinyin said himself: "It's not entirely my own business, because you were counted in the same time as I received the task." He handed me a scroll.
I expanded the scroll and looked at it. This is a task scroll, to be precise, an associated task scroll, and it is actually a level 1,000-level promotion task that I couldn't find after searching for a long time.
"I didn't expect that the level one thousand promotion task was not for me to do the task, but for others to do the task!"
"What?" Rose also ran over and looked at the scroll. It seemed that she didn't know the content before.
The main body of the mission is to ask Xin Yin to reach a temple deep in the red planet to get the sacred object Assassin's soul. This mission looks very simple on the surface, but it is actually very troublesome. The reason is the level difference. There is a sentence on this mission scroll that mentions that the monsters on the road are generally between 800 and 900 levels, and there are some monsters of level 1,000 levels. Xin Yin is only 600 levels. Such a difficult task of level 600 levels must not be completed by a level 600 level 600, so I need a protector, and I happen to be this protector. With the difference in level between Xin Yin and monsters, I almost die as soon as I touch it. This protection is a bit too difficult. But this is a promotion task, and it won't be enough to accept it. It's really angering to death!
Xinyin said beside him: "My task is to get the holy relics and return successfully, and your task is to prevent me from dying up on the road. I know it seems difficult on the surface, but it is actually simpler than you think."
"Oh? Tell me why?"
"Because I am an assassin." Xinyin said confidently.
My intelligence level is absolutely first-class, and I immediately reacted to Xinyin's statement. Assassin was killed usually at the moment of attack. Either the enemy died or he died by himself. But Xinyin's mission was to get things, which means he didn't need to fight with monsters. If an assassin did not want to contact the enemy at all, he would hardly be killed, which means that the mission was actually far from as complicated as I thought. In such a mission, protecting the assassin was even much easier than protecting a meat shield-type warrior who had high blood and thick blood.
"Yes! You are an assassin, why didn't I expect it!"
Rose said: "Although all monsters on the road are difficult to deal with, Zi Ri can easily break through with Zi Ri's ability. What Xin Yin should remember is that you must not be too far away from Zi Ri, and you must protect yourself. As long as you can cooperate well, it is not difficult to complete the task. You two should be more attentive, because the information I bought from NPC shows that there may be serial tasks after level 1,000 promotion to the task. But the final reward... you should understand."
If you don’t understand this, you will be a fool. The serial tasks in Zero are notoriously complicated, but as long as you can complete them, the final reward will definitely make you feel that you have no time to work hard.
"It's great, but before doing the task, I have to find Yinxue first."
The crab man who has been standing aside since the appearance of Nobunaga Ghostou suddenly came over and said, "Dear friends, you look stronger than them. Can I ask you to help us find holy objects?"
I thought about it and said to him, "I think I know how those guys did it. They first stole your holy objects, and then used another group of people to trick your tokens and promised that they were very powerful. I hope you can cooperate with them, right?"
"How do you know?"
"Because they do this every time." I said to the Crab Man: "In fact, we don't have any extra time to help you find holy objects, but since the holy objects were taken away by the RB man, we may discover your holy objects at any time in the subsequent battle. I promise that if our people retrieve the holy objects or find any clues about the ground, they will definitely notify you as soon as possible." The Crab Man was about to speak, and I quickly reached out to stop him. "Don't be busy with thanks. I have never done a loss-making business. At least you have to make me feel that this thing is not a loss."
The crab man in the middle hadn't spoken yet. The crab man next to him rushed up in anger and shouted, "You are even more evil than those guys. Although they deceived us, at least they didn't negotiate with us."
I laughed. "Poor child, can't you understand it until now? You were paying the price to help them fight me before. Do you think you are voluntary labor? Who do you prefer to sell the unsavvy merchants who can't eat food for very little money and the real merchants who sell you normal food for normal prices?"
"Hmph! You guys who come from the blue ball are so cunning!"
"There is no free lunch in the world. You don't really think I will work for you in vain, do you?"
"What you said makes sense, but we really don't have any extra money to ask you for help!"
"I didn't say I wanted you to pay, the rewards don't have to be in material form?"
"Then what do you want us to do?" asked the crab people very seriously.
I smiled and said, "Don't worry. Before I tell you what I want you to do, you'd better answer a few questions first so that I can know what you can do. This way I can decide what you want you to do."
"No problem. Ask."
I reached out to stop his urgent behavior. "Don't worry, this is not a place for conversation. It's better to go to your village first, and then we sit down and talk slowly."
I deliberately don't ask immediately, just passing on a message. Any creature will unconsciously absorb a large amount of information from the environment, but this information will not be directly presented to your superficial consciousness, but will subtly influence your behavior in a way similar to a computer background program. For example, in a dark ancient tomb, you will unconsciously fight a cold war. This is actually the subconscious mind working. It is not your subjective consciousness that is directing you to fight a cold war. What I am doing now is the same. I consciously show an indifferent attitude of not being anxious, so that the people of the parasites know that I don't care whether they cooperate. In this way, they will think that their side lacks chips and the subsequent negotiations will be much easier. If I am eager to ask them to agree to the conditions now, it will be over. I am afraid they will not agree to any conditions in the end.
At my request, the people of the parasitic tribe finally agreed to take me to their village, but these guys asked us to blindfold us, otherwise we would never take us to the village. Considering that they had just lost the holy objects and were in a very insecure moment, I agreed to their request.
Under the guidance of the crab man, we passed through the complex underground caves and reached the underground world. Strictly speaking, this is the real surface of the Red Planet. The ground above is completely covered by a red desert. It is simply a forbidden zone for life. The real life of the Red Planet lives in this underground world.
After we traveled through the underground world for a while, the crab man suddenly asked us to blindfold our eyes. I knew we must be about to get to the place, so I asked everyone to do it. However, I am not a fool. Blind eyes does not mean that I don’t look at the road. The spiritual body of Phantom can use the mental field to sense the surrounding environment, so the eyes are not a must for me. In addition, I can also observe the things around me through the ghost beetle manipulated by the queen who lives with me. It doesn’t matter whether the eyes are necessary or not.
In order to prevent being discovered, I only released a few beetles to take alert tasks along the way, and let a ghost beetle phantomize and stand on my shoulders to replace my eyes to help me see the road. Of course, the crab man couldn't see my tricks, and thought we didn't know the road, so he was proudly leading us around nearby, hoping to mess up our sense of direction.
After almost ten minutes of circles, these guys finally confirmed that we could not figure out the direction, so they took us to a near an underground forest. However, we were not taken into the forest, but stopped near a tree beside the forest. The crab man who brought us knocked on the trunk twice, and the big tree suddenly cracked a crack in the middle, revealing a step leading to the lower level. These guys really know how to hide the entrance!
Chapter completed!
