  Chapter 34 Silver Seal II

If the conversation is compared to a fight, then the battle The initiative is undoubtedly in the hands of Uther.

Previously, Uther had suppressed Rhodes in an imposing manner through a series of consecutive questions and answers.

According to Uther's idea, not to mention that at this time there is only one Business Group going to the City of Sorrows, the person who wants to become a tourist is an undead mage, and his experience is not very good, of course he A price increase can be requested.

The identity of the undead mage is destined to make it difficult for them to collude with others, but in Uther's memory, the incident of the undead mage alone harming the Business Group also happened from time to time. Taking an undead mage on the road by Business Group is inherently risky.

Because of his strength as a senior warrior, Uther is not particularly afraid of the undead mage in front of him, but he is not willing to have too much involvement with it. Unless the undead mage in front of him is willing to pay a large amount of gold coin, Uther will let him become a passenger.

“What do you think of two hundred gold coins?”

Uther stated his estimated price.

Rhodes did not rush to answer, but began to ponder a problem, one that Rhodes had discovered before.

Seeing the undead mage in front of him seemed to be lost in thought, Uther was not in a hurry, just crossed his hands and looked at the undead mage in front of him, waiting for his answer.

After waiting for a while, Rhodes finished thinking and said to Uther: "I have a few questions, I hope the captain can answer me."

"Ask."

At this point, Uther also started to get impatient because of the long wait time.

Uther knew that the undead mage in front of him was asking these questions in order to save money on travel by pointing out the shortcomings of the Business Group. An undead mage is still thinking about bargaining at this time, it is better to check whether the gold coin has enough.

Rhodes asked: "Silver Seal Business Group, why do you want to go to the City of Sorrows?"

Hearing this question, Uther almost couldn't help it, he didn't know Why did the undead mage in front of him ask such an obvious question.

"For trade."

Rhodes then asked: "If it is for trade, why go to the City of Sorrows at this time."

Uther didn't seem to understand, and asked Rhodes, "What do you mean?"

"According to what I know, a large business group went to the City of Sorrows not long ago."

Uther frowned slightly. "So what?"

"A large business group travels to the City of Sorrows, while employing a large number of guards, they will carry a large amount of cargo for maximum benefit, which is sufficient for the City of Sorrows It has been used for a long period of time. This has also led to the fact that during this period of time, the rest of the Business Group can get very little income from going to the City of Sorrows."

Uther said as if he did not understand: "What does that mean?"

"Then I'm asking you, why did you choose to go to the City of Sorrows when none of the other Business Groups went to the City of Sorrows?"

Uther did not answer Rhodes' question directly, but asked Rhodes: "What about you? Two undead mage, why go to the City of Sorrows at this time?"

"For the sake of Go to war."

Rhodes said it in a flat tone, Uther eyes shrank.

Rhodes asked Uther these words to confirm one thing. That is, according to Uther's existing information, do you know that Dia is about to break out into a war with Eli.

Although Uther did not answer Rhodes directly, based on his reaction, it was obvious that he had information about the war.

Uther naturally wouldn't reveal a bit of information about the war until he was sure whether the undead mage in front of him knew it.

What surprised Uther was that in the process of collecting war intelligence, he spent a lot of money to confirm some things from the mouth of his old friend, plus his own analysis, he was only half-trusted, and the current The undead mage is obviously looking for this war.

Reconfirming his intelligence from the undead mage in front of him, Uther's heart was also firm.

Uther said to Rhodes: "You know, because the war is about to break out, the City of Sorrows will need a lot of basic materials. It's natural to get more benefits by sending weapons to the undead mage side."

Uther said to Rhodes. p>

Rhodes replied: "Since you can get news of the war, can't the rest of the Business Group get it? If the war is about to start, the City of Sorrows is the only large town on the border of Dia, and large towns everywhere The Business Group will send supplies to the City of Sorrows, and the price of Weapon Category equipment will be reduced."

"As far as I know, the Silver Seal Business Group is only a small business with about 20 people. Group, how can we compete with large Business Groups with hundreds of people to deliver supplies.”

“In addition to the risks that may be encountered when crossing the border, especially in times of war, the border is full of With a large number of thieves and looters of various races, if it is just transporting weapons, I am afraid that the gold coins you earn are not enough to pay the guards."

"The goods transported by Business Group, terror is not only about weapons. Simple, right?"

Uther's face darkened with every word from Rhodes. At the end, Uther's face darkened completely, but he still didn't speak.

Rhodes continued, "From the moment I entered this tent, I felt something was wrong. There is an aura in this tent, which gives me a very familiar feeling..."

Rhodes stretched out his left hand, spread it out, and said, "This is what you're really delivering, right?"

Uther looked down and saw a dark crystal with a rough appearance lying there In the palm of Rhodes is the Crystal of Revenant that Rhodes obtained in the tomb.

"Because of the abundance of materials shipped, the large Business Groups will not ship many Revenant Crystals for the sake of stability. The rest of the small Business Groups do not have the courage of yours, and immediately purchased a large number of them when they sensed the war. Revenant Crystal."

Uther laughed as Rhodes' voice fell.

"It's just your guess. And I think other members of the Business Group shouldn't welcome undead mage."

After saying this like an expulsion order, Uther Getting up, instead of looking towards Rhodes and vampire, he walked towards the back of the tent.

"You said, how much gold coin is Thief Guild willing to pay for this information."

Uther instantly understood what Rhodes meant, turned around suddenly, looked towards still sitting Rhodes in the chair.

Large quantities of Revenant Crystal, once successfully delivered to Dia, waiting for the coming of war, the price may increase several times.

For this reason, immediately after confirming the war, Uther used all the savings of the Business Group to purchase Revenant Crystals, and went to Dia quickly.

Uther tried to hide it from his men, but no one but a few cronies knew what the shipment really was. In order to prevent leaking information, it was besieged by thieves and undead mage.

If the time drags on a little further, the intelligence of the war has been confirmed. when the time comes all trade routes will become chaotic, and it is not so easy to get to the City of Sorrows without a high-level guard.

Once the news of Uther's delivery of Soul Crystals leaks, before the City of Sorrows, they will be besieged by thieves, and even the official Undead mage will be snatched.

"You..."

"I just wanted to go to the City of Sorrows," Rhodes said, looking at Uther with a sullen face.
