Chapter 464 Contract established
Chapter 464 Contract established
Geniuses are always conceited.
Out of arrogance, they have too much confidence in their own abilities, reasoning and judgment.
And once they reach a conclusion, they rarely doubt themselves.
Even so, "cheating" a genius is still not an easy task.
Because their arrogance is often matched by their abilities - they have extraordinary observation, memory and reasoning abilities.
But what a coincidence is...
Lin Yu has extensive experience as a genius in "fraud".
He has his own unique insights on how to deceive smart people.
No, rather than being experienced in how to "cheat" geniuses, Lin Yu felt that he was more experienced in dealing with "people who are much smarter than himself."
The source of this experience is my sister Lin Zhao.
Maybe Lin Zhao doesn't seem to be a genius now, but in Lin Yu's memory, when he was young, Lin Zhao was indeed smart to a terrifying degree.
It was not until he grew up that Lin Zhao seemed to become more and more normal.
Sometimes Lin Yu wondered if his sister was hiding her talents or if she had lost her "talent" amidst the hardships and difficulties of life.
The most important thing that these experiences gave to Lin Yu was...
Go with the flow.
Once the other party has a reasonable reasoning, let him continue to reason.
At this moment, Twenty, who had completely fallen into the trap, looked at Tai.
"So, there's no need for us to fight to the death, right?"
Tai was also very into the state - Lin Yu had to admit that this patient with split personality whom he met by chance in this [copy] unexpectedly gave him a lot of surprises.
Although the information Lin Yu gave Tai was limited, Tai still acted so well that even Lin Yu himself doubted whether this guy really thought he was "Lin Yu".
When Tai heard Er's proposal for negotiation, he did not object, but just shook his head slightly.
"I don't trust you."
"You expended precious [Items], chased me into this [Instance], and risked being killed by me to open this dream, all just to... negotiate with me now?"
"Like I said, I'm just being asked to do this. As a rising star of Order, you even managed to escape the clutches of the Diviner. So, of course, the Plunderers are very interested in you," Twenty said calmly. "Indeed, the Diviner's mission for me is to investigate your secrets and, if necessary, kill you."
"But... as you said, I used up a lot of precious [Items]."
"And the price of helping the Fortune Teller get rid of you, and the price of investigating your secrets and making you a friend of the Predator... the latter is obviously higher."
Tai said calmly, "Interesting. Are you trying to threaten me and make me an undercover agent within the Order?"
"You don't seem to have a strong sense of identity with 'order', but it's not like I can't give you some benefits."
Twenty asked back.
Tai nodded. "I don't really agree with it, but... what's the price you can offer?"
Twenty murmured, "I'll get the Predators to stop pursuing you. You should know that you have a high bounty on your head within the Predators."
"I need tangible benefits and security."
Tai stared at Twenty and said.
After thinking for a moment, Twenty spoke again, "Okay, let's be frank. Here's a [Dream Blessing]."
"I want three."
Moss interrupted him.
"can."
Ershi agreed readily. He waved his hand lightly, and then a transparent and exquisite bottle appeared on the table in front of him.
The bottle seemed to be filled with flying crystal fragments of light.
At the same time, a parchment "contract" appeared on the table.
"As for the guarantee of our transaction... how about using this [Abyssal Contract] to achieve it?"
On the parchment, lines of twisted ink emerged and merged into words.
Tai picked up the parchment scroll and placed it in front of him, placing it at an angle where Lin Yu could also see it.
Lin Yu glanced at the content above.
"First, after signing the contract, and while it's in effect, both parties must not harm each other."
"Second, after the contract takes effect, the signatory, 'A,' is obligated to protect the personal safety of the signatory, 'B.' They must not take any direct or indirect action that is subjectively detrimental to 'B's' personal safety and freedom. If they become aware of another's intention to take detrimental action against 'B,' they must inform 'B' and provide assistance."
"Third, after the contract comes into effect, Contractor 'B' is obliged to truthfully answer questions raised by Contractor 'A' regarding 'order', and must not make any subjective concealment, omission, or misleading remarks."
"This contract is effective for three months. Violators will suffer the soul backlash of the 'Lord of the Abyss', and will bear the 'Mark of the Betrayer' in their souls. They will also be shunned and hunted by all 'Abyssal Creatures'."
Twenty bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood on the bottom of the parchment contract.
Even though this is a dream and the blood that flows out is not real, but precisely because it is a dream, this action is even more effective than dripping blood in reality!
This is a "ritual" performed directly from the soul state.
The position marked "A" was stained with blood red, and an invisible force was embedded in Twenty's body.
"It's your turn."
As Twenty said this, Tai calmly bit his finger.
Blood dripped onto the parchment.
"You seem to think highly of me. This [Abyssal Contract] alone is invaluable... not to mention you still have to convince the [Fortune Teller]."
"The duration of this contract is only three months."
"Yes, it's an investment," Ershi said slowly, looking at Tai. "If you hadn't done so well in this dungeon... I definitely wouldn't treat you this way."
"It's just that you did it, so I had the idea of investing in you."
"Three months is more than enough time, and I believe... after three months of cooperation, you will be happy to continue working with me."
Moss bit his finger and dripped blood onto the parchment.
"make a deal."
The blood mark dripped down, and the contract was officially established.
Lin Yu, who witnessed all this, couldn't help but sigh...
"No wonder Tai agreed after just a moment of thought."
This guy is indeed a smart man, worthy of being certified by the God of Change.
By cooperating with me, I actually made such a huge profit from Ershi.
However, Lin Yu was also happy to see such a scene.
In this way, in the most optimistic case, moss might be able to help me fool around for a while - at least three months.
Even if I'm unlucky, at least I won't have any problem cheating this [copy].
And the [items] given out and consumed by Ershi are also a relative weakening of him!
