Chapter 92 Establishment of Commission
"This is also a helpless move." Before issuing a shadow-chasing commission, we will definitely understand the specific situation of the shadow-chasing people in detail, including their characteristics, preferences, habits, taboos and other information, so even if we don't interact with too many The shadow chasers have dealt with each other, and they have never entered another world projection, but what these shadow chasers are taboo, Bonita is very clear.Therefore, she also knew that she was in the wrong. She smiled awkwardly under Xiure's gaze and reluctantly explained, "Besides this, there is really no other way."

"Actually, it's not impossible. There have been two cases of successfully obtaining the Sacred Heart from projections from other worlds in the past. Things like the Sacred Heart require priests designated by the gods to carry the sacred objects and obtain them in person. Those two The first successful example was when the Shadow Chaser team brought a priest into another world for projection, so I think there should be no problem if we try it again."

"Hehe, I succeeded twice." Xiu Er said with a sneer, "One thousand and seven hundred years ago, the priest of Lord Sailo, the wind god, entrusted Fiona's team to obtain the heart of the wind. The priest entrusted Hughes' team to obtain the Heart of Morning Mist. In the 700-year history of chasing shadows, there are only two successful examples."

"Yes, they did come out alive, but instead of using them as a reference, it is better to compare the other three times. Roland 100 years ago, Ankana 780 years ago, and Rebecca 310 years ago. These three people were all the best among the shadow chasers of that era. Their team attracted worldwide attention. Among them, Ankana was even a legendary shadow chaser. However, their ending was that they were all wiped out in the projection of another world, and even No one knows how they died."

"Those churches have done a good job of keeping secrets. Before that, I didn't know why the three teams fell. I only thought that the projection world with the Sacred Heart was extremely dangerous and caused the team's destruction. Now I understand the original reason. They brought outsiders in, no wonder such a strong team died inside."

"Ms. Bonita, do you think I will send my teammates into a certain death environment for a little immediate benefit? Or do you think that for Lady Wendy's needs, you can just let us die?"

"Mr. Wright, please calm down first." Realizing that Shuer was not just pretending to increase his reward, but that he was really angry, Bonita was also a little unhappy. She frowned and said, "The Temple of Water didn't want you to The meaning of death, and I think that as long as the conditions are right, all things have room for discussion. Just like taking Kelly into the projection of another world, I think it is not impossible. Indeed, you Shadow Chasers are indeed very taboo about outsiders joining, but I mentioned those two successful examples just to show that a team as mature as theirs is not without discussion on this issue."

"That's because they are confident and think they are strong enough to control everything." Shuer sneered, "Then three teams were slapped hard by the facts."

"I'm not as confident as them. We are just a group of gold-level little people. We never think that we are powerful, and we don't have the courage to violate the experience summed up by our predecessors at the cost of their lives. So I'm sorry, Lady Judy, I I will personally come to apologize. If you are willing, I can also introduce you to several capable teams, but I cannot guarantee whether they will accept it. As for us, I am really sorry, we do not have the ability, so we can only refuse the commission. "

Bonita was silent. She didn't expect that Xiure would refuse so firmly. Not only her, but also the archbishop behind her didn't expect.The price offered by the Temple of Water is already quite high, and she had also vaguely reminded her just now that as long as she can accept the mission, the conditions can be discussed further.It stands to reason that it would be difficult for these shadow chasers, who are desperate for wealth and excitement, to refuse such a generous offer, so none of them expected that they would actually reach a deadlock on this issue.

"It's not about remuneration, Ms. Bonita." Shuer was not willing to completely stalemate the relationship between the two parties. Even if the commission could not be negotiated this time, there might be opportunities for cooperation in the future, so it would be better to leave some room.Therefore, seeing the confusion in the other party's heart, Shuer sighed and explained, "As I said, if it was just me, I would go even if I risked my life, but I need to be responsible for the team. The remuneration you offer , it is not so attractive to the rest of our team. After all, it is just money, which is not commensurate with the huge risks they take. I don’t think you can come up with equivalent rewards, so as the leader of the team, I cannot accept it.”

"I don't quite understand." Finding that the two sides were getting more and more stalemate as they talked, and seeing that there was no hope, another cleric, Kelly, who had been ordered not to speak, suddenly spoke, "You have been saying that the risks are huge, but I can't I don’t understand, but I’m just following you, what’s the risk?”

"Hey, Ms. Kelly, let me explain in advance that I am not targeting you. I hope you don't have any thoughts."

"Well, I wouldn't have any idea."

"Heh, heh." The corners of Xiu'er's mouth twitched, too lazy to argue with this guy who couldn't even understand the polite words, and patiently explained, "The first is the problem of coordination. Entering the alien projection is equivalent to using a The power of the team, to fight against a completely strange world. There is a serious imbalance between consultation and strength. In this case, as long as one wrong step is made, it is likely to induce a chain reaction, and no one will survive in the end."

"Therefore, when encountering a situation, everyone must have enough tacit understanding. Just by looking at a teammate's eyes and movements, you can know what he wants to express and what needs he has. You can understand yourself without even using eyes and movements. What needs to be done, can you do this?”

"Can't do it."

"There are only two possible results if you can't do it. One is that you are responsible for the mistakes you make, and no one will care about you, and then you die in an unexpected situation. The other is that we make up for your mistakes, but the cost of doing so is, It could very well be our lives." Shuer pointed at Safu and Moria, "The three of us once experienced an unprepared pursuit of shadows. That time we followed a medium-sized temporary team of more than 30 people. During the mercenary mission, I accidentally entered the projection world."

"There are more than 30 people, most of them are experienced old mercenaries, but they lack a tacit understanding with each other. Do you want to know the result? The result is that only eight people came back. Even veterans will be like this, not to mention you don't even have mercenary experience. Woolen cloth."

"The second issue is trust. I won't beat around the bush, I'll just tell you straight." You couldn't understand it even if it was said euphemistically. Shuer secretly cursed, "We don't trust you. We won't do anything you do." I have to be on guard at all times. I am only guarding you. How can I have the energy to guard against dangers from the outside world?" "Mr. Caffrey, you are also an expert. What I said is not an exaggeration."

"Everything Mr. Wright said is true." As a witness, Caffrey was also very distressed. The two priests of the Water Temple had even concealed it from him before. If he could have known about it earlier, maybe he could still He came up with a compromise to solve the problem, but now it was too late to say anything, so he could only stay neutral. "This request from the two of you... is really embarrassing."

"If you cooperate with the problem, you really made a mistake. You can just pretend that I don't exist. You don't have to worry about my life and death." She was obviously talking about a topic related to her own life and death, but Kelly still had no emotion at all. "If you find me I had already died on the road before the Heart of Water, so you just come back directly. Oh, don’t forget to bring the holy object back as well. You will complete the commission. If I die after getting it, then you just need to bring the Heart of Water. Just bring the heart and the sacred objects back together."

"You can completely treat me as a disposable consumable. My life and death will not affect your mission. The healing spells of the Water Temple are much stronger than the healing spells of your Dark Moon Temple. After all, we are specializing in healing. I am here. , you are equivalent to having a large-scale treatment device that can be discarded at any time, so it should be able to make up for my impact on cooperation."

Fanatics.

Shuer was finally able to identify Kelly. She was definitely a fanatical believer in the Lord of Lakes and Rivers. Everything was subject to the will of the gods, and she could sacrifice everything for this, including her own life.

If this kind of person uses the right method, it is indeed a very useful tool as she said, but in some respects, this kind of person is also terrible. A person who doesn't even care about his own life, who knows that she will do it. Whatever happened, if her god Wendy assigned her some other ulterior tasks, she would never hesitate to do it, even at the cost of death.

How to say no?

It was impossible for Xiure to express this latter concern. It would be tantamount to blaspheming the opponent's god in person. If he expressed it, he would just wait for the two temples to start a war.

Frowning and tapping his thigh, Shuer fell into silence for a long time.

"As for the second question you mentioned, it's about trust. Actually, it's not unsolvable." Not paying attention to Xiu Er's silence, Kelly said to herself, "It's just..."

"Sorry to interrupt." Lisa suddenly stood up and smiled apologetically at Kelly, "Brother, brother, I have something to tell you."

The girl leaned close to Xiu Er's ear and whispered for a while. As the girl whispered softly, Xiu Er's expression continued to change, and finally settled into a smile that seemed to have enlightenment.

"In the name of the Lord, I pay tribute to the Lord of lakes and rivers, and may the running water remain clear forever." Putting one hand on his chest, he stood up and bowed deeply to the void. Xiure faced Kelly and Bonita again, smiling. He said non-smilingly, "It seems that Lady Wendy is determined to win the Heart of Water. No wonder you said that trust can be solved."

"The Lord's will is our will."

"Since this is the case, it would be too much for me to refuse." Xiu Er sighed, nodded and said, "Master Cafry, both of us have no objections, the commission is established, please preside over the signing."

　My paranoia is getting worse. Is the imaginary reader actually leaving me a message?I am terminally ill, no, go to the emergency department of the hospital immediately.
