Are You Very Rich?
"This is a bit troublesome..."
Looking at that group of graceful and mature female wolves.
Roger instinctively sensed something was wrong.
The young wolves under his command are all hot-blooded and impetuous young men.
How could they possibly be a match for these ferocious she-wolves? Let's delay a little longer.
You might end up having your entire family background found out!
At present.
Roger quickly used his Slaughter Authority to warn the Little Wolf Cubs to be careful and know their limits.
on the other hand.
He decided to take a roundabout approach.
That is, to use her beauty to solve the problem! Now that Sophie's gender has been determined to be female.
Roger believed that there was no enemy he couldn't defeat with his "Heroic Demeanor + Charm Authority"! Under the moonlight.
Roger silently straightened his back.
But the next second.
But a cold voice came from beside him. "Stop posing, Mr. Roger. It's not very respectable for your status..."
"In addition."
"I am completely immune to the allure of charm."
A hint of smugness flashed in Sophie's eyes. "No man can seduce me!"
Roger tried it and found that it really didn't work.
Unfortunately, we had to call it a day.
And from beginning to end.
Sophie, who had subtly regained the initiative, maintained a calm and composed demeanor.
This made Roger somewhat unhappy.
The stalemate continued for a while.
Sophie spoke first:
"My words still stand. If you really need to Nullification Blades, then I can lend it to you."
"On the condition that you do me a favor."
"Tonight, I am going to assassinate a Middle God of the Starry Sky God Race. If you help me complete this mission, I will lend you the Nullification Blades for ten days after it is done."
"Believe me, this will be a very fair deal."
On the stone.
Sophie spoke eloquently.
It seemed that victory was already in their grasp.
Roger showed no reaction.
She was just about to elaborate.
Who knows what will happen next?
Roger, who was under the rock, suddenly turned and ran!
His speed was unparalleled.
In the blink of an eye, it was about to disappear from Sophie's sight! The girl was taken aback.
They quickly chased after him at Lightning Speed.
The chase between the two top rogues was destined to be silent yet intense.
Just 3 minutes later.
Roger stopped at a high point on a mountain ridge.
Twenty seconds later.
Sophie had barely arrived near him when he reached the vicinity.
She stood on the low ground and raised her head.
Her rapid breathing caused her chest to heave violently.
The moonlight shone on her blurry profile.
At least it revealed a patch of pure white.
"You..."
Sophie's voice was very hoarse:
"What are you doing?"
She already knew the answer.
But until it is confirmed.
Sophie still harbored a sliver of hope.
But the next moment.
Her wishful thinking was ruthlessly shattered.
But then Roger spoke:
"I can run faster than you."
Sophie did not refute.
She knew it was true.
Even though they are all Ascension Agility and powerful individuals.
But this freak in front of her is indeed far superior to her in the sprint project.
"Since you can't catch me, I can just go and sell information to the Starry Sky God Race Clan."
Roger continued without panting, "The news about the Ancient Ice Dragon, plus the intelligence about tonight's assassination attempt..."
"Perhaps its value does indeed exceed that of a Nullification Blades, doesn't it?"
This calm narration sent Sophie's heart sinking to its lowest point.
She never expected that the man in front of her could remain so clear-headed after she had quietly regained control of the conversation!
That's right.
The person who needs to make deals and negotiate right now is not Roger.
It was Sophie! Roger was not only holding the Hundred Battles Blade in his hand.
They still hold the key to the Celestial Gods Race's plan!
"How could I be so stupid?!"
Sophie thought with annoyance:
"I actually told him about tonight's plan in advance, which is tantamount to handing over my bargaining chips!"
She was losing control of her emotions.
She put her hands behind her head.
Somewhat helpless, they squatted down on the ground.
However, this scene only lasted for three to five seconds.
In the blink of an eye.
Sophie was suddenly jolted awake from her regret.
Then she closed her eyes.
The Perception Authority has been activated! "Despicable scoundrel!"
"Don't look at me with those evil eyes!"
Sophie yelled angrily in Roger's direction.
Roger shrugged.
On the data panel.
"Warning: Sophie has noticed your ' Insanity Gaze '!"
"You stopped harassing Sophie..."
That's a tricky guy.
The game has come to this point.
Roger couldn't help but admire the quirky young rich woman in front of him.
Her keenness and responsiveness are exceptional.
As for his combat talent, there is no doubt about it.
With a little refinement, it can definitely become a top-notch hunter.
It is highly likely that he will ascend to the Immortal Stele in the future.
It could even be a god!
"The Celestial Gods Race is indeed full of talented people..."
Roger secretly envied the race's extraordinary talent.
On the surface.
He calmly began to speak:
"To reiterate, the initiative is now in my hands. The only reason I'm standing here negotiating with you is to demonstrate my sincerity in making the deal."
"You shouldn't ask for too much."
"I only have one question now: should I trade the Hundred Battles Blade for the Nullification Blades, or not?"
Sophie crouched on the ground with her fists clenched.
Her body was tense.
It resembled a frightened black cat.
The black bodysuit accentuated her ample bust.
This makes her whole body appear more visually explosive and impactful.
Roger looked at her with seemingly relaxed eyes, squinting.
In reality, their vigilance was already at its peak.
If Sophie makes any aggressive moves.
Then Roger would leave without hesitation.
He wasn't planning to break ties with the Celestial Gods Race tonight.
The Nullification Blades is good.
But as long as Sophie remains in his sight.
There will always be opportunities in the future.
"Do!"
When the word signifying a deal slipped out from between Sophie's pearly teeth.
Her tense body suddenly relaxed.
"The ten-step rule, understand?"
Sophie asked.
Roger nodded.
This is an unwritten rule among top-tier rogues when exchanging items.
Both parties will place their items ten paces apart.
Then walk face to face to face to the other person's location.
Then I received the item.
The deal is done.
Within these ten steps.
No one can guarantee your safety.
Only your own reaction and ability can save your life.
But the top rogues are all extremely arrogant.
Ten steps is a distance that allows them to react.
That's why this rule exists to facilitate appropriate transactions.
After the two made their agreement.
They then moved closer to each other.
When they were only ten steps away...
Roger immediately plunged the Hundred Battles Blade into his heel.
Sophie also reluctantly placed the Nullification Blades in the same spot.
Immediately afterwards.
Both sides are moving towards each other.
Under the moonlight.
Both of them were masked.
Their eyes met briefly.
The same applies to the shoulders.
The next second.
The two reappeared in each other's original positions.
"They actually refrained from attacking me?"
Roger grabbed the Nullification Blades with some surprise.
In an instant.
The Nullification Blades transformed into a vicious venomous snake.
It bit Roger's hand hard!
Clang!
There were no bite marks on the back of Roger's hand.
The snake's fangs broke off without incident.
On the other side.
Sophie happily grasped the Hundred Battles Blade.
But the next second.
The joy in her eyes turned into astonishment.
The dust, symbolizing "camouflage," has been removed.
The Hundred Battles Blade in her hand had suddenly transformed into a weathered thigh bone! And it was a bone of the lowest quality, repeatedly used by necromancy and drained of 1000% of its potential! "You..."
She turned around, instinctively wanting to accuse him.
But then I saw Roger casually toss the snake aside.
"It seems neither of us is being sincere."
Roger chuckled softly, "Then..."
"It's time to take my leave!"
His figure began to blur.
Sophie quickly called out, "Wait!"
"I can give you the real Nullification Blades... but you simply can't control it!"
Roger stared at her coldly. "Keep making this up?"
Sophie said urgently:
"I'm not kidding you!"
"The Nullification Blades is Demigod Artifact that I forged myself, but it is still only a half-finished product!"
"Please believe me..."
"If you need it, I can really lend you the Nullification Blades, but not for too long!"
"Because the Nullification Blades and the Hundred Battles Blade are a pair, their condition for use is that both blades are used simultaneously!"
"Furthermore, these are Demigod Artifact refined by my rank, so only my rank or my divine blood can activate these two weapons. Even if you take them, they won't be of any use to you. Try it if you don't believe me!"
This time.
Her voice was filled with urgency.
Roger savored it carefully.
It was discovered that Sophie was indeed not lying.
There is indeed a very subtle connection between the Hundred Battles Blade and the Nullification Blades.
More importantly.
Both knives were pointed directly into the depths of Sophie's body.
That place.
That's probably her status.
"Sir Exorcist, I don't think you are an unreasonable person."
Sophie noticed that Roger remained silent.
The tone gradually softened:
"These two knives are a part of my body. To be honest, I can't allow anyone to take either of them. My determination to defend them is the same as my determination to defend my own body and life!"
"That is beyond doubt."
"But if you really need this weapon, we can discuss a short-term lease, in the form of a contract, on the condition that I have already said, that is, you help me complete tonight's mission."
Roger gave a few noncommittal hums.
To be honest.
Sophie's reasons did not sway him.
However, Roger was somewhat embarrassed by the part about the other party being 'unreasonable'.
He recalled what happened after he bumped into Nullification Blades.
It seems that they have indeed resorted to a tiny bit of unscrupulous means.
Although the Celestial Gods Race is not a good thing.
But Roger felt his eating manners were too unseemly.
Rather than that.
It would be better to just kill Sophie directly.
But now it seems...
This option can also be ruled out.
Divination and perception are displayed.
The two knives were indeed as Sophie had described.
It is a pair of unfinished products.
Sophie is dead.
These two knives will also lose most of their spiritual essence.
The special effects that Roger wanted might not be preserved.
"Demigod Artifact with a spirit is such a hassle; even the Telepathic Fingers doesn't work!"
Roger thought to himself, somewhat annoyed.
However, he was more concerned about the 'contract' that Sophie mentioned.
So he couldn't help but ask:
"What contract can bind you and me?"
"I don't want to get bitten by a poisonous snake again when I try to fulfill my obligations next time."
Sophie coughed twice, somewhat embarrassed.
Then he quickly said:
"Ancient Desolate Contract".
It was a standardized and just contract based on the praise of the Ancient Desolate Giant who were the guardians of this continent.
As long as you remain on this continent and violate the terms of the contract.
Then you will be punished by the will of the Ancient Desolate Giant.
Throughout history, many top experts have died mysteriously after violating Ancient Desolate Contract.
This is a very effective way of making contracts.
However, the method of signing a contract is somewhat expensive.
Therefore, this should be stated in advance.
The costs of signing the contract must be shared by both of us!
Upon hearing this...
Roger instinctively asked:
"The cost? How much?"
Sophie quickly calculated. "At least one million Copper Coin."
Roger was taken aback.
What kind of contract is so expensive? Could this Ancient Desolate Giant be just trying to freeload?
Or perhaps.
Was this something Sophie made up? But the next moment...
The information "Historical Knowledge (Ancient Desolate Contract)" that flashed on the data bar dispelled Roger's doubts.
What Sophie said is true.
The Ancient Desolate Contract is a valid contract recognized by all creatures on this continent except for the Totem God.
The method of establishing a contract is also very easy to verify.
If Sophie wants to play tricks in this regard...
Then she will definitely suffer.
Roger pondered for a moment.
Suddenly asked:
"What if I leave the Ancient Desolate Continent?"
Sophie said calmly, "No one can toy with the Ancient Desolate Will."
"At least to my knowledge, no."
So don't even think about finding loopholes.
Roger nodded noncommittally.
Looking at Sophie in front of him.
He scratched his head.
There was no better solution at the moment.
Sophie's determination to protect the weapons was evident.
Roger had exhausted almost all his methods—
Skilful Plunder?
Fail!
Charm Authority?
Fail!
Insanity Gaze?
Fail!
A deceptive deal?
Fail!
It's not impossible to force it if you really want to.
After all, Roger was confident that his Martial Force skills were slightly better than Sophie's.
But that would be a gamble.
Even after leaving its master, the Nullification Blades still retains such domineering special effects—
The probability of this is very low.
In summary.
If Roger really wanted the Nullification Blades special effect.
It seems that renting is the only option.
certainly.
There's a lot to learn about leasing.
Especially when it comes to things like contracts.
Roger, who dealt with devils every day, was well-versed in their intricacies.
At present.
Roger then calmly discussed the details of the loan with Sophie.
Roger then stepped down from the stage.
Sophie naturally gave them a warm welcome.
And so.
The tense atmosphere suddenly transformed into one of mutual understanding and joy.
The two discussed the matter amicably for a while.
An agreement was reached very quickly, without much trouble!
The agreement between the two parties was quickly finalized.
Its key contents are as follows:...
"1. Roger must assist Sophie in completing tonight's assassination mission."
The target of the assassination was a servant of Olmerdo, one of the Three Main Gods of the Starry Sky God Race.
Stone Angel Az
2. Roger will return the Hundred Battles Blade after the mission is completed.
"3. Roger will obtain the right to rent the Hundred Battles Blade and the Nullification Blades for a total of 30 days.
The rental options are flexible and varied.
It can be in whole or small amounts.
Available for immediate rental.
But if Sophie is in battle.
Therefore, she has the right to refuse the lease request.
"4..."
"99. To show his sincerity, Roger is willing to pay all the contract fees..."
"Huh?"
Are you willing to pay the full amount?
Are you very rich?
Sophie looked at Roger with some surprise.
