Quadruple split.

Chapter 2573 Interlude: Will It Be

A moment later
"Big brother..."

After the handsome dwarf named Zipper or Pants Zipper had completely left, Wang Badan, who had been as quiet as a turtle just now, coughed lightly, turned his head to look at Mo Tan who was trying to fight against the side effects of instantly opening [Reverse Scale·Full Release], and asked with a subtle expression: "Is this appropriate?"

Mo Tan barely suppressed the backlash while slowly putting on his own set of plate armor, which was of very good quality and should not have been blown up, and asked casually without replying, "What do you mean?"

"Ha, of course I'm referring to the wave you just pretended to be."

Wang Badan laughed dryly, and said with a twitching mouth: "Should I say it or not? No matter whether it's the epic called "open crotch" or "pants zipper" or the "Wildfire" behind him, their attitude towards us is pretty good. I think we should have a chat with them no matter how high or low we are."

Mo Tan turned his head and glanced at the slaves in the distance who were mostly dozing off because they didn't have to continue working, and said noncommittally: "Didn't I chat with him for quite a while?"

"Is that what you call chatting?"

Wang Badan rolled his eyes and said with a grin, "I didn't know that you were the only epic here. To be honest, brother, aren't you afraid that he will get angry and explode with us? Even if that unlucky guy Cordova can be pulled in to help, we may not be able to escape unscathed, right?"

Gu Xiaole beside him also chuckled and smiled, "Now that you little bastard mentioned that, I am a little curious. Although we are not on the same side as those people from the Viper Chamber of Commerce, your attitude just now was a bit too tough, Mo-chan. Although it was very handsome, there must be some deeper reasons, right?"

"Right, right!"

Ji Xiaoge immediately spread his wings and said cheerfully, "I also think Mo was so handsome just now!"

After rearming himself, Mo Tan sat on the ground somewhat exhausted, smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "It's just that I say one thing to one person and another to another. No matter what, the other party is from the Viper Chamber of Commerce after all. Since both parties have no common interests from the beginning, I think it's a good thing to draw a clear line early. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome."

"Oh?"

Gu Xiaole blinked and asked curiously, "Is it just like online loans and credit cards? Once you apply for it, even if you pay it back on time, will you still receive harassing calls frequently for many years to come?"

“Not quite the same, but not without similarities.”

Mo Tan shook his head slightly and said carefully, "It can be seen that no matter whether it is the hooded man who conveyed a lot of information to us before, or the group of [Sour Bugs] who deserved to die, or the Epic who just represented [Wildfire] to deal with us, they all follow completely different logics in their styles of behavior. Not only are they not united, they can even slaughter each other without any burden. But even so, they still gather under the banner of [Viper Chamber of Commerce]."

Wang Badan curled his lips: "So? What happened then?"

"That means that no matter how much we interact with any of them, we will be on the same side as the Viper Chamber of Commerce to some extent."

Mo Tan's face darkened, and he said with a slightly focused gaze, "Since we have already regarded Viper as an absolutely hostile force, I personally cannot allow such an ambiguous situation."

"agree."

Ji Xiaoge clenched her fists and gritted her teeth as she spoke, "Although I think that person's attitude just now was very good and polite, but when I think about that [Wildfire] who knew about the existence of this place and that amusement park for a long time but chose to sit back and do nothing, I feel that I can never understand each other with that kind of person."

"How should I put it? Maybe I have seen too many bad things..."

Gu Xiaole put his arm around Ji Xiaoge's shoulders and gave a complicated smile: "Now I feel that your idea is somewhat naive, and so is Mo-chan. Although I already know what you are thinking, if it were me just now, I would probably keep that person to talk more."

Ji Xiaoge turned to her sister Xiaole in surprise and asked, "Why?"

"Because ideals and beliefs are good, but they can't fill your stomach."

Gu Xiaole sighed, hesitated for several times and finally told the truth: "Although it's just a personal opinion, I think we can't just think about 'ourselves' now. The [Paw Patrol Adventure Team] can pat their butts and leave, and the [Wreck-It Mercenary Group] no longer has a big problem, but what about those people we rescued? What about the girls who are with Little Bill and the others right now? What about the laborers next to us who are almost destroyed by drugs and whose worldviews are forcibly distorted?"

Dabus nodded when he heard this, reluctantly expressing his agreement with Gu Xiaole's words, and added: "Xiaole is right. Putting aside the question of whether we are qualified to be the strong dragon here, [Wildfire] is definitely a qualified local snake. If we can have his help, at least these victims can be properly resettled."

"How are you sure?"

Yaya, who was squatting next to Mo Tan, wrinkled his nose and asked unhappily, "What if that [Wildfire] throws those people into the new mine?"

Dabus waved his hand gently, smiled and shook his head, "No, you heard that person say before, at least in a place like Ankh Market, even if [Wildfire] is a member of Viper, they are not interested in those low-level bad things."

"And if they are willing to agree, they will definitely find a way to reassure us."

Although very reluctant, Gu Xiaole chose to stand against Mo Tan this time and said in a depressed mood: "I understand that you, Mo-chan, don't want to go along with the evildoers, but sometimes... ideals have to give way to reality."

Ji Xiaoge pouted and whispered, "There are also Birger and the others. If we talk about local tyrants, the Destroyer Mercenary Group is also..."

"There is no comparison between the Destroyer Mercenaries and Wildfire, Pigeon."

Dabus interrupted Ji Xiaoge and said helplessly: "According to what you told me about the situation of the [Loya] tribe, our highlander friends don't have much surplus food at home. It is too unrealistic to ask them to settle so many people at once. What's more terrible is that they gritted their teeth and agreed to it because of personal relationships. If that happens, the result will only be worse."

"So, now it is me, Dabus, and Miss Xiaole who agree to have a good talk with Wildfire and ask them to clean up the mess left by Woodlice in a way that complies with humanitarian standards~"

Wang Badan smiled obscenely, shook his head and said, "Big Brother, Big Sister and Yaya support drawing a clear line between us and those scumbags. Tsk tsk, that is to say, in the case of a 3:3 tie, the only person who can decide the future direction is Anthony!"

Anthony: "...Tony?!"

"Don't make trouble."

Dabus glared at the troublemaker and said to Mo Tan sincerely, "Let's think about it from another angle. This matter can be understood as asking Wildfire to pay off a debt for Woodlice, who is also a member of Viper. This is not cooperation in the objective sense."

Mo Tan nodded and chuckled, "Well, I understand. Is there anything else you want to add?"

"……I have."

As a result, Gu Xiaole really raised his hand. After Mo Tan turned his head to look at him, he pursed his lips and said seriously: "Even if you really don't want to deal with [Wildfire], I will find a way to get things done. Although it may take some time, but... um, no problem."

"... Miss Xiaole?"

Ji Xiaoge's arm around the other person trembled slightly, and she looked blankly at the beautiful female Onmyoji with a firm expression, seeming a little dazed.

Gu Xiaole smiled slightly and repeated softly: "It's okay." So, is the fact really as she said, there is no problem?
In a way, the answer is yes.

As a super powerful player who was a big name in [Questioning Debate], although he lost to Dahua Qianniu in the individual battle, he still won the championship in the team battle and played a decisive role in the final. Gu Xiaole has been enthusiastically pursued by major professional players since the end of the game.

Although she was not interested in the various benefits promised to her by these professional player organizations, at the suggestion of the mysterious collaborator Ming Sakaki, the great Onmyoji Gu Xiaole reluctantly added a few people she liked, such as Jiuchong from [Red Constellation], Shion from [Wind-Breaking Bird], Fenghuaxueyue from [Pai Lao], I'm Not a Lesbian from [Hundred Flowers Kill], Xue Ye from [Green Apple Chamber of Commerce], Jin Beibei from [Bath of Fire], and so on.

Although the group rescued a large number of victims in [The Music Field·Warm Cocoon] and [Mountain Earthworm Excavation Site], it was effortless for major studios and clubs with capital injection to properly resettle these people.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Gu Xiaole takes the initiative to contact the above-mentioned people, within 12 hours at most, these victims will be transferred in an orderly manner to a safer and simpler place, where they can enjoy professional treatment and psychological counseling in an environment equivalent to that of a professional sanatorium.

but--

There is no free lunch, breakfast, dinner, afternoon tea or midnight snack in the world. Since Gu Xiaole has no intention of joining any online or offline professional organization, the only way to balance this favor is to say goodbye to the Wangwang Adventurer Team here and go to the Dark Forest to help with the strategy of the limited-time secret realm.

Saying goodbye to the Paw Patrol means...

"all in all……"

After showing Ji Xiaoge a bright smile, Gu Xiaole subconsciously turned to look at Mo Tan and said with a smile: "You don't need to know why, just trust me, your sister!"

of course……

Definitely…

You don’t have to think about it to know…

This kind of thing definitely cannot be told to everyone.

After all, apart from himself, no matter it is Ji Xiaoge who won the runner-up in the individual competition and stole the limelight, or 'Mo' who cherished heroes with Xinglong, they can all exchange for help from professional players in the same way.

But what they really want is to have adventures with Yaya, Wang Badan, Jadeka, Anthony Dabbs and others. They also deserve such a kingly story.

As for myself——

[Well, I have been doing this for the past ten years, so I have already made some money during this period~]

Gu Xiaole touched the tip of his nose, which was a little sour. Just when he wanted to strike while the iron was hot and get Tanjiang to agree, he saw the other party shaking his head with a subtle expression——

"Now that you've finished speaking, let me say a few words."

Mo Tan, who had not said much just now, raised his hands and said seriously: "Although everyone's ideas are reasonable, I have actually made some plans for the follow-up arrangements, so..."

"ちょっと出って!"

Gu Xiaole suddenly leaped in front of Mo Tan, grabbed the latter's collar with both hands and pulled him towards him, and said in shock: "T... Mo-chan, you have a plan? You you you you have a plan, why didn't you tell me earlier?!"

Mo Tan let Gu Xiaole drag him around while smiling bitterly, "I wanted to say it, but you guys were talking one after another and didn't give me a chance to interrupt. Then I asked you if you had finished, and you added something, Xiaole. So... okay, I was wrong. I should have said it earlier."

Under the extremely oppressive and slightly red gaze of the beautiful female Onmyoji, Mo Tan decisively gave up explaining and simply admitted his mistake.

"Humph, next time if you have something to say, just say it earlier, don't let your sister worry about you for nothing!"

Gu Xiaole pursed her lips angrily, then let go of the other person and trotted back to Ji Xiaoge. Before someone started to explain his plan, she instinctively and unconditionally believed that he could properly solve all problems.

Anthony Dabbs, Yaya and Wang Badan all turned their heads to Mo Tan, realizing belatedly that this guy who played the role of "backbone" most of the time had never disappointed them.

So, Mo Tan coughed lightly, and said quickly and clearly: "We are facing two main problems now (Wang Badan: Wow, two?!)... Yes, two. The first is the issue of resettlement of the victims of the [Solphins] that we just discussed, and the other is the issue of the vacant 'market share' after the [Solphins] forces are defeated by us."

Dabus and Wang Badan asked in unison: "Market share?"

Mo Tan nodded solemnly and said in a deep voice: "Led by the amusement park we destroyed before, [Sootles] have many 'businesses' in the Anka Market. Although the scale and severity are far less than the former, after losing the core, these..."

"Pigeon?"

Because he trusted Mo Tan unconditionally, he was not listening very attentively. He then accidentally noticed that someone beside him seemed to be distracted. Gu Xiaole looked away with a flickering look and asked in a low voice, "What are you thinking about?"

"Well, Miss Xiaole."

"what? What?"

"Probably, no?"

"What can't you do?"

"That... shouldn't be the case, right?"

"Uh……"

"Well, I don't mean anything else, it's just that suddenly..."

"It will not happen!"

"Eh?"

"Sister, I said - no."

“…Yeah, yeah.”
