Moonless Thunder knew exactly what Fearless meant. If he dared to ask if they were selling it, Fearless would definitely extort him of his entire asset, so Moonless Thunder could only feign ignorance.
Fearless did not want to waste time with Moonless Thunder so he straightforwardly said, “Isn’t your quest at the Atlanta dungeon? After you left, we picked up an item by accident so we would like to notify you guys.”
“Oh, Boss Fearless, how much are you selling it for? Let me tell you first, you and Master Reynolds have already emptied our savings just now, so we don’t have much left.” Moonless Thunder took the initiative after seeing how Fearless was so direct and ready to extort them.
“Haha!”
Fearless laughed out of the blue and said, “What a pity, we aren’t selling this.”
“You!!” Moonless Thunder heard what Fearless said and almost choked to death. He agitatedly said, “Boss Fearless, are you fooling me? Why ask us to come if you are not selling it?”
“Oh?” Fearless lifted an eyebrow and said, “Seems like you are very disappointed?”
“I…” Moonless Thunder was stumped for words. F*ck it, no matter how they tried, they could not escape this guy’s trap.
“What’s there to be disappointed about? Anyways, after we reach level 60, we will also be able to attempt that dungeon quest.” Moonless Thunder said to preserve his pride.
“Really? Fearless smiled, “Are you sure that after you reach level 60, the Atlanta City that you visit will one hundred percent still be resided by Regis?”
“Erm…” Moonless Thunder was speechless.
Although it was the same location, based on the habits of online games, dungeons of different difficulty level will have different content. Hence, definitely so for a dungeon quest. Moonless Thunder did not dare to take that risk.
“Boss Fearless, name your price. If it isn’t too overboard, we will buy it.” Moonless Thunder said with no choice.
Fearless said, “As I said, we are not selling it.”
“Why?” Moonless Thunder questioned.
“Because it can only be used, and cannot be sold,” Fearless said.
“Oh, I understand. This proof for entry is tied to its owner!” Moonless Thunder said.
Although <<REBIRTH>> was a whole new mode which removed the tied function, there were still some special items which could not be traded. The letter was one of those.
Fearless smiled but did not acknowledge if his conjecture was right.
Moonless Thunder then said, “Then what do you think we should do?”
“Same rule, keep aside our differences and work together.” Fearless said smilingly, “So long as you show some appreciation, we will bring you guys in.”
“Hehe.” Moonless Thunder laughed, “Boss Fearless, don’t lie to me. If we don’t help you, you guys will also not be able to enter the dungeon, right?”
Moonless Thunder was not stupid. Everything was two-sided. Just like how Berserk Heavenlaw would not be able to enter the dungeon without the proof for entry, Quan Zhen Sect was also not able to enter as they did not have enough people. Hence, with Moonless Thunder’s quick reaction, there was a turning point to this.
Fearless smiled, “Brother Moonless, how many of this proof of entry do you think there is?”
“One.”
“How about the number of players in <<REBIRTH>>?” Fearless asked again.
“Erm…” Moonless Thunder was embarrassed again. There were hundreds of millions of players in <<REBIRTH>>. No matter what they were short off, there was definitely enough people. It was too naive of him to use this as a bargaining chip.
“So we will need to discuss the price.”
“How about five thousand gold coins?” Moonless Thunder asked after some thought.
“Huh, you guys have spent more on information than this, right?” Fearless said as he shook his head.
Berserk Thundergod who was at the side said angrily, “That was because you guys demanded such a sky-high price. If it wasn’t us who bought the information which triggered the quest, how would you guys have picked up this proof for entry?”
Ming Du said, “Boss Thundergod, this is not what happened. We waited for you guys to leave before asking. Why didn’t you guys ask a few more questions?”
“…” Berserk Thundergod was at loss for words, then said, “We didn’t think of that.”
“Haha, didn’t think of that… Boss Thundergod, I’m afraid that your reason cannot even convince yourself.” Ming Du said sarcastically.
Just then, Reynolds coldly said, “I like players who ask questions. Do you have any for me?”
Berserk Thundergod, “…”
Moonless Thunder wiped his sweat and said, “Boss Fearless, we really don’t have the money. On the account that we had fought side by side before, how about 6000 gold coins?”
Fearless smiled and said, “I am also not an unreasonable person. Since Brother Moonless, you have put it this way, I cannot not do you this favour. 6000 gold coins is fine, but I have a condition.”
“What condition?” Moonless Thunder asked warily.
“The team leader will have to be my person and after we enter the dungeon, everyone will have to abide by my command,” Fearless said.
“No problem!” Moonless Thunder said happily after hearing it. Berserk Thundergod and the rest also broke out in a smile and heaved a long sigh of relief.
Berserk Heavenlaw thought Fearless had some unreasonable condition, but it was just him wanting to be the team leader and having command. When they enter the dungeon, the leader would only assign roles and the assignment of equipments would be decided by the player who picked them up. Being the team leader was just in-name with no real authority.
Commanding mattered even less as this job was demanding and yet, reaped little rewards, especially in large dungeons. It was extremely complicated for the team leader to command as it was extremely common for the entire team to be wiped out. As the one in command, if they succeeded, few people will acknowledge his hard work, but if they were wiped out, he would be held responsible…
In such an important dungeon, no one dared to be in command without some impressive abilities. Since Fearless volunteered, they fulfilled his wish.
Of course, everyone knew how good Fearless’ commanding abilities were, or else they would not be so agreeable. After all, everyone wanted to complete the quest and not just collect equipments.
“Alright then, you guys gather some people. Not too many, just 200, but they must be elites.”
“Of course, everyone in Berserk Heavenlaw are elites.” Berserk Thundergod bragged.
“Most importantly, they must have the quest assigned to them, or else it would be a waste.” Fearless reminded them.
Berserk Thundergod waved at him in annoyance, “I don’t need you to remind me.”
After leaving the library, Moonless Thunder said worriedly, “Thundergod, do you think Quan Zhen Sect is up to no good? I got a feeling that something is not right, but I just can’t figure out what isn’t right.”
“Oh? Really? I think those people are just greedy, other than that, they seem fine,” Berserk Thundergod said.
This dude was also a greedy person. Seeing how Fearless extorted him with less money, he took Quan Zhen Sect as good people.
“That Fearless has endless greed. He agreed so easily this time, so I feel a little off,” Moonless Thunder said.
“Haha.” Berserk Thundergod laughed. “You must be traumatised by him. Didn’t he want to be the leader and in command?”
“This is what worries me. For someone so greedy to want two tough roles is what seems wrong to me,” Moonless Thunder said.
“I know.” Berserk Thundergod suddenly said, “You are not ill, you are habitually over-worrying for nothing.”
