Golden Summoner

Listening to Mr. Curie's praise, Xia Pingan did not show any trace of pride on his face. Instead, he frowned lightly, his eyes were deep, and his face was solemn. "To be honest, I personally don't have that much ability. All of you here are." The people who decide the fate of Paris also have many sources of information, so I can tell you honestly that the last time we entered the underground tunnels and cleared out the demon rats, the Order Committee and the dragon group's summoners who participated in the operation, the cemetery corpse transformed , I was the one who suppressed the zombies together with them. It is absolutely impossible for me to complete these arduous tasks by myself!"

Several people in the room looked at each other. They knew some of the news before, but they didn't expect Luo An to be so honest. In most cases, those summoners who want to negotiate terms will at this time. Bragging about his abilities, Mr. Luo An is just the opposite.

Xia Pingan sneered at the thoughts of these people. If he could complete these dangerous tasks by himself, how could he ask for more boundary beads from everyone? Therefore, in order to complete the task of entering the catacombs, I need to find a team to work together. For teamwork, the boundary beads are indispensable.

"Mr. Luo An is humble..." Mr. Curie introduced everyone in the room to Xia Pingan, "This is Mr. Wenger, the government representative, this is Professor Fernand, the chairman of the Paris Citizens' League, and this is the president of the Paris Citizens' League." Renault, the leader of the guard..." Mr. Curie introduced all the important people in the room to Xia Pingan. After everyone got to know each other, they sat down together and started discussing business.

The first one to speak was Wenger, who represented the French government. He pushed up his glasses and looked at Xia Pingan with shrewd eyes, "Mr. Luo An, I want to know how confident you are that you can eliminate the problem when you enter the catacombs this time. This crisis?”

"Sorry, Mr. Wenger, we don't have any confidence!"

Xia Pingan's decisive words made everyone present look at each other in shock.

Xia Pingan spread his hands and continued, "Mr. Wenger, Bourget Maunouli is the summoner you selected to guard Paris. This man is so powerful that I don't need to say more. You know better. He It is possible that he is still hiding his own strength. There are quite a few summoners who gathered at Chateau Boulogne before, and these may only be part of the strength of the Devil's Eye. Hundreds of them already exist in the catacombs of Paris. Years ago, there were 6 million corpses inside. Who knows how many arrangements the Devil’s Eye summoners have made in the past few hundred years. The Paris Catacombs have now become one of the most dangerous places in the world. You can ask any summoner to come Faced with this situation, I dare not tell you that I am even remotely sure!"

Xia Pingan's eyes looked around, his eyes were lowered, his face was solemn, his tone suddenly became heavier, and he began to turn into a shadow emperor, "Gentlemen, when you ask me how sure I am, you have to know that in the catacombs of Paris, , a mage with the Devil's Eye who can cause corpse transformation. The nuclear material obtained by the Devil's Eye is most likely to prepare to summon the Bone Monarch in the catacombs and to repeat the Mambinet Incident in Paris. Anyone who enters will be It is possible to face more than 6 million enemies and a group of demon eye summoners. Whether you can send a legion in and come out alive is unknown. So, don’t ask me if I am sure. If anyone faces this situation You are still sure, you can go find him!"

There was no talking in the room, and a group of people looked at each other.

Mr. Wenger also cleared his throat, "Mr. Luo An, we know that the underground tombs are dangerous, but we will have to pay a huge price for this operation. How can you give us confidence and a little guarantee?"

"My guarantee is that if this operation does not succeed or achieve the expected results, if the difficulties and dangers we encounter in the catacombs are beyond the capabilities of our team and we are unable to do anything, we will terminate the operation and evacuate the catacombs and return to the catacombs. Eighty percent of the world beads, and the remaining 20% ​​are for the risks we bear and the intelligence fees we collect. We will tell you what the specific situation in the underground tomb is like, and why we Is this enough of a guarantee that if you withdraw, you will not be completely kept in the dark?"

Everyone in the room looked at each other, and after a few seconds of silence, they all nodded. Such a guarantee showed Luo An's sincerity, which was beyond their expectations.

Xia Pingan's voice changed, "But I also have one request, that is, you must pay all the remuneration before the mission begins!"

"Mr. Luo An, can we pay half when the mission starts, and then pay the other half when the mission is completed?" Professor Fernando asked.

Xia Pingan shook his head and said in a very firm tone, "I have given you a guarantee, but without the Jie Bead, I cannot summon the team involved in the operation, so the Jie Bead must be paid in full before the action. This is unacceptable. Discuss, if you don’t agree, this negotiation will end here, can you find someone else to complete this task?”

Looking for someone else? It's impossible to find it, not to mention whether it's time or not. Even if we can find someone, can the person who can come have Luo An's strength and Luo An's credibility? Can everyone afford the asking price? More importantly, the local snakes in Paris are very wary of the government's action team stationed in Paris. At the same time, the summoners from the government do not want to carry out such a dangerous mission in a place where logistical support cannot be guaranteed.

In the past few days, Mr. Curie and others have negotiated many times with Wenger, who represents the government, and discussed various options and candidates. However, there are many difficult-to-coordinate issues and details that cannot satisfy everyone. In the end, both parties found that except for Apart from Mr. Rohan, there were not many people they could rely on in Paris at this time, and there were even fewer options to solve the problem.

"I wonder how many boundary beads Mr. Luo An's team needs?" Mr. Curie finally said.

"Our team has six people, and they are all very strong, so the minimum number of boundary beads we need is... 60!" Xia Pingan said loudly. He already knew what the bottom line of Wenger and others was.

Everyone in the room was stunned for a moment, and Wenger almost jumped up. "Mr. Luo An, your asking price is too high. We don't have so many world beads?"

"How many world beads can you provide?"

Wenger looked at Xia Pingan and gritted his teeth, "The most we can provide is... 25 boundary beads!"

Xia Pingan smiled and stood up, "Then I wish you good luck. I will leave Paris today. Things in Paris will have nothing to do with me in the future!"

"Mr. Luo An, we can discuss the number of world beads!" Mr. Curie quickly stood up and stopped Xia Pingan.

Xia Ping An glared at Wenger, his tone was already very unhappy, "Do you know that there may be more than twenty magicians of the Devil's Eye around Bourget Monuri, take out these more than twenty world beads, Are you asking us to rush to a place where there are more than 6 million skeletons that may undergo corpse transformation to kill them all? A mage with a devil's eye is worth one of your world beads. The price you are offering is too outrageous. Not only is it You look down on the Eye of the Devil, and you look down on me and my friends. The millions of people in Paris and your capital are worth 25 world pearls in your hearts?"

"Ahem, this can be discussed..." Wenger looked at the eyes of the people around him and said with a little embarrassment.

"Don't waste my time. If you want to bargain for a small business, you can find someone else. The minimum reward that I and the action team I hired can accept for this mission is 60 boundary beads. I will give you five minutes to discuss it. Discussion, if it doesn't work, then today's meeting ends here!" After Xia Pingan finished speaking, he glanced at his watch and started counting.

Less than five minutes!

After a lot of bargaining and debate, the final result came out.

Local gangsters and government representatives in Paris paid Xia Pingan and his team a total of 40 boundary beads and 260 million euros in remuneration, allowing Xia Pingan and his team to enter the catacombs to perform the task. If the task could not be completed, Xia Pingan and the others would return it. Eighty percent of the reward, and the sign of mission completion is to find those nuclear materials and stop the evil eye's conspiracy in the catacombs.

The money and beads were collected by all parties involved in the negotiations, with the French government bearing the bulk of it.

Before negotiating with Xia Pingan, Wenger and others' final bottom line was 40 boundary beads and 300 million euros. The conditions Xia Pingan accepted were just above their bottom line.

…

When leaving the restaurant, Xia Pingan already carried 40 world beads and a cashier's check from the European Central Bank for 260 million euros.

Xia Pingan solemnly promised that within 48 hours he and the team he convened would enter the Paris catacombs and start the operation to save Paris...
