After Wen Leiya, it was Shirley's turn to appear. Although she now goes by the pseudonym of Winter, after all, she gets along with other contractors day and night, and there are no secrets between them.
Everyone knows her true identity, but no one has revealed it.
The equipment Matthew gave her was a pair of wings.
Wing equipment is a rare thing for the Celestial Race.
Equipped with wings for ordinary people, the most it can do is increase their flying ability, allowing races that do not have the ability to fly to fly freely in advance before super-high-level realms.
Beyond that, wing gear is just a beautiful decoration for most people.
But for the Celestials and Winged People, wings are the equipment that can exert the greatest combat effectiveness.
For them, wings can increase mobility and stimulate many additional attributes.
Not long ago, Anivia broke through to the super position, and she left behind a batch of Phoenix Feathers.
Matthew used these phoenix feathers as raw materials and added a large amount of precious materials to make this pair of wings.
It mainly has ice attributes, supplemented by sacred attributes, which perfectly matches Shirley's attributes.
The attributes of the equipment are important, but the matching of attributes is also important. If it does not match the training attributes of the wearer, the effect will be greatly reduced.
Shirley's basic attribute is Ice Seven Light Three. The most suitable equipment for her is naturally the main ice and secondary holy light. However, such equipment is difficult to obtain and must be specially customized.
Matthew had long planned to make a piece of equipment for her, but he never had a suitable carrier.
He once considered using the ice crystal provided by the teacher as the base plate, but although this material has a high level of magic energy, it has a fatal flaw, that is, it has poor growth potential.
If the equipment is made from ice crystals, Shirley will have to change the equipment when she reaches the demigod state.
It is definitely not a good thing to rashly change the equipment you have. There are many excellent practitioners who have a low adaptability after changing weapons, which greatly affects their combat effectiveness and even affects their training progress.
He wanted to make long-term plans for Shirley's growth, and naturally he would not allow Shirley's talent to be wasted like this.
So, he made a deal with Anivia, using ice crystals and a bunch of magic materials in exchange for the shed wings of the Ice Phoenix.
A pair of very complete phoenix wings.
This is a win-win deal.
Matthew got high-quality raw materials, and Anivia got the magic materials that can be cultivated to the hero level.
But Anivia didn't know that even if there was no transaction, Matthew would still provide her with these materials, but the purification level would be slightly worse.
Matthew promised to train Anivia, and naturally he would not break his promise.
But little Phoenix didn't know this. She had been taught since she was a child that if you want something, you have to pay the price.
She obtained all the resources to practice at the cost of a pair of wings left over from the breakthrough. In her opinion, it was simply a gain in blood.
From Matthew's perspective, although he paid a lot, these things were all consumables that could be obtained from other channels, while the Phoenix wings were priceless treasures.
Although the price of their transaction was similar, he actually made a lot of money.
He can use many methods to get another batch of training supplies, but there will never be another Ice Phoenix in this world.
Win-win.
This is not just casual talk, but Matthew’s basic principle for doing business with people.
Matthew is a smart man, but his negotiating partners are not fools either. They want everything, and the end result is to lose all business partners.
Always thinking about taking advantage of others, you will gain nothing in the end.
The basic principle of commerce is circulation.
As long as it circulates, profits will be generated.
This set of phoenix wings is profit.
When Matthew called Shirley's name, she stood there blankly. It took a long time before she remembered that her real name was Shirley.
This name represents her past. When Matthew mentions the name [Shirley] in public, it also means that he has put aside all his grudges against Shirley.
Shirley once tried to assassinate Matthew, but gave up at the last moment.
As a price, she was placed under house arrest in the Fengxue Courtyard north of her home, never to see the light of day.
Because the war broke out, Matthew released her early and gave her a chance to redeem herself. She did not disappoint Matthew. She performed very powerfully in the war and killed many enemy generals.
In this battle to conquer the Kingdom of Perth, her achievements among several contractors were among the best.
However, this time Matthew gave the equipment based on his total achievements over the past few years. Shirley's assassination of Matthew caused her to lose too many points. Even if she was convicted and meritorious, she could not compete with Sistine and Surante, the two people who had followed Matthew from the beginning. Compared to the old man.
Matthew values the present while also being nostalgic.
He recognizes Shirley's achievements, but will also punish her accordingly for her mistakes.
The equipment he gave Shirley was actually a semi-finished product.
The reason why there is no finished product is partly because Matthew is not strong enough now, and partly because it is also punishment.
When Shirley makes more achievements in the future and Matthew's strength gradually increases, there is still a chance that this Ice Phoenix Wing will be upgraded to a legend.
Shirley stood still for a long time, and finally woke up as if from a dream under Diana's gentle reminder.
She looked at the other contractors around her from the corner of her eye.
After they found out that Lin Dong was Shirley, their reactions were different.
Rena, Wen Leiya and others have simple minds. Since Matthew thinks Shirley can be forgiven, they naturally have no objection.
Kalainen looked at Shirley suspiciously, feeling suspicious.
This time the rewards were based on merit, and she was convinced by the rewards from the others, except Shirley's rewards that she couldn't accept.
If Shirley had not assassinated Matthew, she would indeed be eligible for such a reward, but she is a sinner.
Serving crimes and making meritorious deeds?
What a joke.
Shirley was only a few centimeters away from killing Matthew that day, and she did have murderous intentions.
A guy like this, even if he can be forgiven, must pay a greater price.
Shirley didn't expect Matthew to be so generous to her. She hesitated for a long time before kneeling down in front of Matthew.
She expressed her gratitude to Matthew, but firmly rejected Matthew's move to give him magic equipment.
She said seriously:
"Master, what you are leading now is not just a few people, but a team of ten contractors."
"If you want to lead a team well, you must have strict discipline and follow the rules. If you forgive me because of a moment of weakness, it will be difficult for others to convince you."
"You made a contribution in this war." Matthew's reason was simple.
Shirley shook her head slowly and said: "These achievements can only make up for my guilt at best. I ask the master to temporarily take back these phoenix wings and give them to me after I have made new achievements."
"If you give me these wings now, what will others think?"
The corners of Shirley's mouth trembled slightly, her expression bitter.
She could feel the magic fluctuations flowing on this pair of phoenix wings. More importantly, these wings were a mixture of ice and sacred attributes, which perfectly suited her.
If she could get this pair of wings, she would have full confidence in reaching the fourth or even fifth level when she broke through the super level.
She knew very well that as long as she held the wings, she could win more benefits for Matthew. This should be the real reason why Matthew was willing to give her the wings.
She is also willing to accept this win-win solution.
But the equipment she got surpassed many old people who had followed Matthew from the beginning. What would they think?
She looked around just now, and these were the people who expressed dissatisfaction with her getting the Phoenix Wings.
On the contrary, Sistini, who had always been at odds with her before, had no reaction.
Sistine's position with Matthew was solid, and since Shirley truly repented, she didn't bother to say anything.
In the past, Sistini was responsible for Matthew's security, so she naturally had to keep an eye on Shirley. Now that this job is handed over to Kalainen, it is natural that Sistini will not be in charge if she is not in her position.
She believed that Shirley could use this pair of wings to play a greater role, so she was naturally willing to support it.
Deanna and Surante are the kind of people who don't like to argue. Matthew can forgive Shirley, so there is no need for them to be evil people in vain.
Matthew looked at the expressions of each girl and could clearly see their little thoughts.
He was aloof, just like a teacher watching the students in the audience covering the table with books and playing tricks.
He has a keen eye for the struggles between women.
Of course he knew the reason why Kalainen and the others were opposed. They had been with Matthew longer and were more loyal, so why did they get worse rewards than Shirley.
No one can be convinced.
Matthew was not going to explain this.
The KPI points ranking is there. What they should reflect on most is why they have followed Matthew for a longer time but cannot compare to Shirley, who has been deducted a huge amount of points.
The rules are transparent, and the results produced under these rules are naturally fair.
Matthew turned his attention to Deanna, hoping to get a positive answer from her.
Diana originally didn't want to get involved in these things, but facing Matthew's questioning gaze, she couldn't escape and could only nod vigorously in agreement.
This result is indeed fair.
In Shirley's KPI points column, she was deducted a very exaggerated number of points.
Without these deductions, her points would even be in the top two.Now being ranked in this position is already her punishment.
Of course, she couldn't say that.
Because she and Shirley had similar backgrounds. They were both former cadres of the Claire Empire's religious legion. Now they have switched to Matthew's command. In the eyes of those old people, they are almost surrendering to the enemy.
Although she has a clear conscience, it is better not to take the initiative to avoid disputes.
Of course, since it was Matthew who asked, he still had to answer.
After receiving Diana's affirmation, Matthew also nodded with peace of mind.
Diana has no position or interest in this matter, so her words are very fair.
Since she approves, it also represents the attitude of the neutrals.
Thinking of this, Matthew felt a little tired.
This is just a contractual relationship, but there are already signs of palace scheming. How do the women in the harem fight for the favor of the king/emperor?
He didn't want his wife and contractors to be like this.
You have to stop it when you see signs of it, otherwise you won't be able to control it in the future.
Matthew looked at Shirley kneeling in the center of the hall, snorted and said coldly: "Whether I want to give you equipment or not is not something you should consider. What you have to do is accept the gift, and then let these pairs of wings fly over you." It’s all in your hands.”
Shirley hesitated for a moment, looked at Matthew's unquestionable attitude, bit her lip and said loudly: "Yes, Master!"
She took the phoenix wings with trembling hands.
The pair of ice wings emitted a soft blue light as soon as they were acquired, making the atmosphere of the whole room softer.
The other contractors were stunned.
Under normal circumstances, only artifacts will emit the light of recognition.
The equipment that Matthew made for them were all sacred weapons (super-level magic equipment). With Matthew's current strength, he still can't make sacred weapons for the time being.
But there are also differences between sacred vessels.
The best holy weapons possess some of the characteristics of divine weapons, and growing holy weapons can even evolve into divine weapons using special materials in the future.
Everyone present is a well-informed and well-read person, so they can naturally see the greatness of this pair of wings.
Seeing Shirley's surprised expression, Matthew smiled and said: "The raw material of these wings is the feather slough left after Anivia's breakthrough. The properties are just right for you."
Under Matthew's encouraging expression, Shirley equipped her wings and flapped them casually.
She just opened the door lightly, and the temperature in the room dropped by more than ten degrees, almost to freezing point.
But because of the presence of the sacred breath, although it was a bit cold, the others did not feel the biting chill, and even felt refreshed by the cool breeze with sacred attributes.
Everyone present is knowledgeable and naturally knows how extraordinary this piece of equipment is.
This is clearly the artifact embryo!
Matthew smiled and said: "Shirley, this equipment still has room for growth and evolution in the future, but you have to use more KPI points to exchange for it. Come on!"
