Chapter 330: This Dragonman is Very Greedy
The dragonman youngster and Bing Xiao tugged at each other for a long time before the latter finally took his leave.
The dragonman youngster remained in the captain's cabin, looking at a piece of paper in his hand.
It was a thick piece of parchment from Bing Xiao.
The dragonman youngster continuously infused it with battle qi, and the text on the surface of the paper continuously evolved, as if a book had been compressed into a piece of paper.
This was the alchemy technique of the endless paper.
The content on the paper was Bing Xiao's insights on cultivating giant slaves.
Of course, it was a simplified version.
The most important core content was missing—how to control higher level giant slaves as a lower level life form.
The dragonman youngster read it intently.
Although the core was missing, he didn't actually need it.
He had never thought of using a slave contract to control the big guy.
They were companions, comrades-in-arms who had experienced life and death together, not tools.
Bing Xiao was not easy to deal with.
A straightforward refusal was not in line with the strategies of the dragonman youngster and the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord.
This time, in order to paralyze the enemy and ease the situation, the dragonman youngster still signed a contract with Bing Xiao.
However, it was not the magic contract that Bing Xiao carried with him, but a temporary draft.
The dragonman youngster would not change his mind and say that the previous accusation was a pure misunderstanding.
This was the core reason for the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord to launch an offensive against the Bayonet Gang, and it was the best opportunity to strike the Bayonet Gang.
According to the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord, he had been waiting for this opportunity for many years!
But the dragonman youngster promised Bing Xiao that the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps would not take any further action against the Bayonet Gang unless the Bayonet Gang attacked first and violated the agreement.
This promise was beneficial to the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps.
It was to prevent the Bayonet Gang from sensing something was wrong and becoming evil and daring, carrying out a second assassination attempt on the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps, or even more despicable, insidious, and vicious ambushes!
The final agreement between the two sides was that the dragonman youngster said he would sign it after the end of his heroic duel with Teng Dong Lang.
He made it clear to Bing Xiao that this heroic duel was his initiative, and he needed to fulfill it. He also needed to personally gauge the strength of the leader of the Bayonet Gang!
When he said this, the dragonman youngster stared intently at Bing Xiao, his eyes burning like flames.
Under such a gaze, Bing Xiao felt the dragonman youngster's fighting spirit.
When Bing Xiao left the captain's cabin, the expression on his face was somewhat complicated.
“Commander Long Fu really wants to have a duel with Teng Dong Lang!”
“Judging from his previous performance, I'm afraid he really has a way to deal with gold level opponents.”
“Otherwise, with his silver level, he wouldn't be so confident as to challenge a gold level opponent to a duel.”
“He is the commander of the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps, and his every move is not just his personal will.”
Thinking of this, a look of concern flashed across Bing Xiao's face.
“What is his trump card?”
“What makes him confident enough to challenge someone above his level?”
"Teng Dong Lang's previous caution was right. Unfortunately, his arrangements didn't seem to work. Even Xiong Ju couldn't force him to reveal his trump card!"
“The other three ringleaders can't do it either.”
“Given the current situation, perhaps Long Fu's trump card can't be revealed lightly.”
“Once the opponent is on guard, the threat will plummet!”
“The primary objective of this operation has not been achieved.”
A fleeting glimpse of coldness flashed in Bing Xiao's eyes.
“Long Fu is holding out for a better offer.”
“I presented such a tempting list, but he didn't buy it!”
“He wants more.”
“This dragonman is greedy, very greedy.”
“He wants to use his trump card to defeat Teng Dong Lang and embarrass the leader of the Bayonet Gang in front of everyone.”
“This will put him in a more advantageous position in the upcoming negotiations.”
“He wants to take more from us!”
"Hmph, this dragonman is really bold and reckless. Teng Dong Lang should indeed deal with this kind of thing and restore the reputation of the Bayonet Gang!"
“Let the whole of Snow Bird Harbor know what kind of existence the Bayonet Gang is.”
Bing Xiao was not satisfied with the results of his trip, but it wasn't as if he had nothing to show for it.
At least, after negotiating with Long Fu, he had softened the other party's attitude and greatly reduced the intensity of the conflict.
Next, it was time to watch the heroic duel between Teng Dong Lang and Long Fu.
“The Bayonet Gang needs a decisive victory with a huge advantage!”
“Long Fu needs to be taught a harsh lesson, preferably by losing his life in the arena under the gaze of everyone.”
“Even if his trump card works and Teng Dong Lang is humiliated, we can still compensate the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps after the duel.”
“It doesn't matter!”
“They are just outsiders. If they want to settle in Snow Bird Harbor in the future, we will have plenty of opportunities and time to deal with them.”
“There are many ways to do this.”
“We'll make them spit out the meat they've swallowed, though this alone won't be enough.”
“If we don't make them pay back tenfold, how can we live up to the reputation of the Bayonet Gang?”
As the saying went, a true man could lower his head when necessary. Bing Xiao understood this well.
We'll see how it goes!
The dragonman youngster returned to the cabin with the endless paper and met with the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord.
He concisely described his negotiations with Bing Xiao and the preliminary results.
Upon hearing about the magic contract between the dragonman youngster and Bing Xiao, he shook his head slightly, unconcerned: “This contract is not a problem.”
“According to our previous plan, Long Fu, you only need to accuse the Bayonet Gang of desecrating the heroic duel and fulfill the heroic duel with Teng Dong Lang.”
“I will take care of the Bayonet Gang.”
“You are just a battle banner. Wave the battle banner to attract the main attention of the Bayonet Gang. You don't need to follow up with a charge into battle.”
The Snow Bird Harbor City Lord said this and gave the dragonman youngster a meaningful look.
He knew that the dragonman youngster had deliberately made this contract with Bing Xiao in order to counterbalance him, the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord.
In the event that it came to a full-scale battle, if the city Lord wanted to force the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps to help out on the grounds that the situation required it, the dragonman youngster could use this magic contract to block him.
The dragonman youngster's move once again made the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord feel the dragonman's tactics. The latter was definitely not a partner who could be manipulated at will.
The dragonman youngster noticed the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord's gaze and smiled slightly: “Right, this is the giant training insight from Bing Xiao.”
The dragonman youngster said, and then directly handed over the parchment.
The Snow Bird Harbor City Lord was slightly taken aback, but then smiled: “To be honest, I am indeed very interested.”
He took it and quickly glanced through it, then pondered, “There is some content, but the most core secrets are not there.”
“The most powerful aspect of Bing Xiao's training insight lies in the fact that this method can be used to make weak slaves strong.”
“The gold level giant slaves he trained always obeyed his every command, even if it meant dying on the battlefield, they were willing to do so.”
The dragonman youngster looked slightly stern. After hearing this, he realized that he had underestimated Bing Xiao's cultivation insight.
Sacrificial fighters were always troublesome.
Gold level sacrificial fighters were very dangerous.
This was because those who reached the gold level were basically city Lords. Even if they were not, their social status was not low.
But Bing Xiao was able to get a city Lord-equivalent expert to fight to the death for him!
The Snow Bird Harbor City Lord said with emotion, “Gold level giant slaves can really play a role on large battlefields.”
“Unfortunately, they ended up in the hands of a local gang like the Bayonet Gang.”
“The most common battle scenes are street fights in alleys, which are mere skirmishes. For giant slaves, it's like being tied up.”
“Bing Xiao cannot truly unleash the value of giant slaves!”
“To be honest with you, I've always been interested in Bing Xiao's method and have been secretly using means to probe into the specifics.”
“The things you have in your hands are indeed substantial, but I've already collected them.”
"Much of the content is actually available in major factions, libraries, or academies. As long as you're willing to pay the price in time, money, and so on, you can collect it."
"The information I have collected is even more comprehensive than yours. When I return, I will have someone send it to you."
“Like yours, we are missing the most core secrets!”
The dragonman youngster thought to himself, “Actually, I don't need it. This information alone is enough for me to train the big guy.”
Of course, he did not say what he was thinking.
In fact, the dragonman youngster changed his mind and thought that if he could really collect such secrets, it wouldn't be bad.
What if it came in handy in the future?
Seeing the reaction of the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord, the dragonman youngster knew that he had done the right thing by taking the initiative to share the insights this time.
Since the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord wanted to deal with the Bayonet Gang, it was impossible for him not to consider Bing Xiao and his gold level giant slave.
Before leaving, the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord patted the dragonman youngster on the shoulder to show his closeness.
He was satisfied with the dragonman youngster's sharing.
This showed that the dragonman youngster did not want to hide anything from him and was happy to give back to his allies.
The dragonman youngster had previously made the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord express his sincerity in cooperation in an almost calculating manner, so the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord was naturally uncomfortable in his heart.
But now, after cooperating, the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord felt much better.
Because all signs indicated that although the dragonman youngster was difficult to deal with, he was quite reliable as an ally.
“You've gained a lot of good things today.”
“Familiarize yourself with this equipment as soon as possible, you don't have much time left.”
“Also, hurry up and heal your injuries.”
“The sooner you engage in a heroic duel with Teng Dong Lang, the less likely we are to be exposed.”
The dragonman youngster nodded.
He didn't have any internal injuries, so he didn't feel any psychological pressure in this regard.
The Snow Bird Harbor City Lord quietly left.
He didn't want to expose his whereabouts and let the Bayonet Gang guess his true relationship with the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps.
The dragonman youngster began to inspect all the equipment he had obtained today.
These alchemy treasures were very valuable, but since they came from outside, he could only feel a little more at ease using them after testing them.
After Zi Di finished her inspection, she said with emotion, “Compared to the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord, Bu Quan is much more generous by giving them away directly.”
She then asked the dragonman youngster, “When will the alchemists we want arrive?”
The dragonman youngster shook his head slightly and said, “I asked, but the city Lord said that it would take time to make arrangements. There should be two alchemists.”
Zi Di said, "I understand. We will only get these agreed-upon rewards after we complete the duel."
