How much was 7 million? Although the RMB’s purchasing power wasn’t very strong, 7 million was still not a small amount.
“Arrow King” Sanguine Rain who had the highest value in Void Blade was worth 30 million in an one-year contract and yet, this was already 50% higher than other top tier players.
Quan Zhen Sect was simply killed several times and yet, they dared to demand 7 million. This was too insane.
Although Captain Don’t Open Fire had the money and could well afford to spend 10,000 gold coins, he was not stupid. A normal human would not spend 7 million on just one notification.
“Brother Spring, are you kidding me? Even hiring someone to kill the top professional player would not cost me 7 million,” Captain Don’t Open Fire replied emotionlessly.
Captain Don’t Open Fire’s intentions were very clear. Quan Zhen Sect was indeed impressive but they were still nowhere near the top professional players, so they were not worth 7 million.
“Hehe!” Spring Halo laughed, “Of course it won’t cost so much to die a few times but what you are also buying is Quan Zhen Sect’s reputation.”
“You guys have a reputation?” If they were not on the news boards, Captain Don’t Open Fire would have specified to have these words sprayed on Spring Halo’s face. He never really knew that Quan Zhen Sect was bothered by their reputation.
“Your reputation is pretty expensive then.” Captain Don’t Open Fire sighed.
“True, after all, we are very mindful of our reputation,” Spring Halo said shamelessly.
“Let me think about it.” It seemed like 7 million was not a lot to Captain Don’t Open Fire as he did not reject them on the spot, and chose to consider. If it was someone stingy like Sanguine Warflag, he would be furious even though it was Quan Zhen Sect.
“Ok, I’ll wait for your reply,” Spring Halo replied calmly as it seemed as though he already knew it was going to be this way.
“So? What did Captain Don’t Open Fire say?” Wang Yu asked after seeing that Spring Halo was finished.
Spring Halo said, “Just like what Fearless said, he needs to consider.”
Boson said, “He still needs to consider? If I were him, in the face of opponents like us, I would take the money out with no hesitation.” While speaking, Boson even turned to get Wang Yu’s support.
“We’re talking about 7 million, not a small sum… He deserves to give some consideration over it.” Wang Yu said with a smile.
“Will he agree?” Darknorth Fisher, who was usually wary, asked Fearless.
As a professional Mercenary and an ex-leader of a guild, Darknorth Fisher thought in similar ways as Captain Don’t Open Fire. They considered how much it would cost to kill one person. Ten thousand gold coins for one person was an unimaginable sky-high price.
Fearless let out a cold laugh. “They have no choice. If I guess correctly, Sanguine Alliance will definitely flood the chat group… Do you think Void Blade has any way out?”
“That’s true, Sanguine Alliance suddenly interfered. Fearless, did you also manipulate Warflag?” Wang Yu asked puzzledly.
Wang Yu was an honest person. With Sanguine Alliance’s sudden intervention, he had been feeling guilty. Although Sanguine Alliance did not help them explicitly, they helped Quan Zhen Sect quite a bit behind the scenes. He felt that it was not right to manipulate Sanguine Alliance at the moment.
“Nope…” Fearless said as he shook his head, “Sanguine Warflag himself caused things to develop till this step… He thought that after dealing with Void Blade, he won’t work with us anymore but who knew Void Blade was more eager than him to prove himself… We are just seizing the opportunity to earn money.”
“Sanguine Warflag has himself to blame. Why did he do this suddenly…” Crotch Lord said puzzledly.
“At the end of the day, he doesn’t trust you guys. See, you guys have traumatised him…”
Wang Yu was enlightened and he exposed the true reason.
“Damn, how shameless of you to speak as though you were not involved in cheating Sanguine Alliance. You were the most aggressive one when cheating Sanguine Alliance alright…” Everyone argued…
“Mm…” Wang Yu was speechless as everyone spoke the truth. They belonged to the same main city so Wang Yu knew those rumours and gossips which exaggeratingly praised him. Hence, the origin of Sanguine Alliance’s trauma was obvious.
Of course, Wang Yu was open about facing what he did. Hence, Sanguine Warflag only did this because Fearless and the rest were unlimitedly shameless…
“What if they refuse?” Frost Blade asked.
“Doesn’t matter if they refuse. Everything is within control. Even if they refuse now, they will have to give it to us sooner or later.” Fearless laughed coldly, “There is no way they can just leave after messing with us.”
Vainglory said on the chat, “That’s right, we are not to be trifled with. If they dare to mess with us, we will skin them alive.”
“Little brat, can you not be so gross?!” Yang Nuo belittled him.
“Yeah!” Ming Du side-eyed Vainglory then said, “We need to be a good piece of shit so no one will dare to step on us.”
Everyone, “*sshole, go and die!”
Over at Void Blade’s, Captain Don’t Open Fire said seriously, “Quan Zhen Sect says that they can be killed by us several times.”
“Sounds great,” Big Bear Deng Deng An said excitedly after hearing that.
“But we will need to pay…” Captain added.
Big Bear, unbothered, said, “Just money, how much?”
“100,000 gold coins!” Captain gave him the amount.
“F*ck, why don’t they rob someone?” Big Bear heard the amount and lost his balance.
“They said that it is a crime to rob…” after Captain mumbled casually, “Alright, I just want to discuss with everyone if we should spend this 100,000 gold coins. Sanguine Rain, what do you think?”
Captain Don’t Open Fire asked Sanguine Rain as he asked.
Sanguine Rain, who was silent all these while, heard Captain Don’t Open Fire’s ask for his opinion so after some thought, he said, “It is just 100,000 gold coins. Since you are not short of money, just give it to them. I think this advertisement fee is worth it.”
This issue was initially a conflict between Void Blade and Quan Zhen Sect but now that Sanguine Alliance’s tens of thousands of troops and marines were accumulating XP, causing chaos, Void Blade would be able to establish a reputation for himself if he cooperated with Quan Zhen Sect.
After all, this was Void Blade’s aim for ambushing Quan Zhen Sect. Sanguine Rain had fought against Quan Zhen Sect before. After considering slightly, he came to a conclusion. Instead of offending these scary people, he would much rather spend some money to resolve this issue…
Who knew, once Sanguine Rain finished speaking, Big Bear was upset. He rolled his eyes at Sanguine Rain and said, “Is the almighty Sanguine Rain afraid of them? After failing just once and you’re like this. This isn’t the typical you. Do you know how much is one hundred gold coins worth?”
“Hehe!” Sanguine Rain looked at Big Bear and told Captain Don’t Open Fire, “I am just suggesting. Boss, you have the final say.”
“Noted” Captain Don’t Open Fire nodded and said upsetly, “I am indeed not short of money but I also do not wish to be easily extorted.”
“Oh? Boss, do you mean that you have an idea on how to deal with Quan Zhen Sect?” Sanguine Red stood up and asked.
