Chapter 1505 Even if it is a tradition

As Hailin expected, the accident happened soon.

It was quite troublesome just to explain to strangers that the teleportation tower now required payment to use. Sometimes, as soon as I opened my mouth, I would be attacked by [SKIP] just by saying the word "welcome".

This can be done by putting up a sign to inform strangers of the situation, and strangers really don't care much about having to pay to use the teleportation tower.

It was okay when there were only a few strangers at the beginning, but when the strangers were highly active, the disaster began and a huge number of strangers lined up in front of the teleportation tower.

No matter how fast the elite receptionists trained by the McLen tycoon could process the affairs, they could not keep up with the speed at which the strangers came. Even if they did not review anything, did not register, and were not even sure how much the strangers had paid, it would still take at least five seconds. In just five seconds, the strangers were crowded together.

This is the price of having a limited number of entrances and checkpoints, and crowds and queues are one of the things in the world that can make people irritable and dissatisfied the most.

Hailin recalled the situation of the teleportation tower in the past. Unless it was a large-scale event, the teleportation tower had never appeared in the current situation.

Normally, people thought that [Hermes's Travel Hat] had a very advanced payment method, but I didn't expect it to be [Trust].

That's right. As long as you have a commission, you can use the teleportation tower for free. This is the trust that [Hermes's Traveling Hat] has in strangers. No staff member checks whether the strangers who use the teleportation tower have really accepted the commission, and just lets the strangers use the teleportation tower directly.

What should I do if the stranger did not accept the commission but pretended to accept it and used the teleportation tower?
Hailin couldn't help but cover his face and sigh. Judging from the behavior of the strangers, they would not deliberately do something like [not accepting the commission but pretending to have a commission] to use the teleportation tower for free.

There are places to accept commissions everywhere, not only that, even commissions like helping to deliver letters are included.

This can be considered as a big favor to the common people. Even if strangers do not have the free benefits of the teleportation tower, they will still accept those commissions. The [Hermes Traveling Hat] can be considered as a favor done by borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha.

Hailin persisted for a long time, and finally left his post and came to the top floor of the teleportation tower, took off the heavy waiter maid skirt, leaving only the casual clothes underneath.

Her goal was to leave an impression on the strangers, but they would skip over her as soon as she opened her mouth. Perhaps after a while, some impression would remain, but she did not have that much time now.

"I told you that you can't beat [Hermes's Traveling Hat], they work harder than you." Lord Aarhus stood behind Hailin so openly, and even when Hailin changed his clothes, he didn't show any intention of leaving to avoid suspicion.

Hailin rolled his eyes.

"You don't have to speak if you can't. What I need now is for you as a lord to assist us, add new service desks, and introduce new policies, such as allocating your territory commissions to us."

"Unfortunately, that cannot be done." Lord Aarhus shook his head. "[Hermes's Traveling Hat] has contracted many things and has a higher appeal. They can entrust the territory to more foreigners, which will be more beneficial to the territory."

"And you, the McLen tycoon, are not good people. If you are allowed to lead the territory's economy again, you will soon start trying to split the covenant."

"About that!"

Helin ran to Lord Aarhus. Although she was a very tall woman, she still looked very petite in front of the people of Giens.

She put her hands on her hips, quite dissatisfied.

"Aarhus has been allied with the Giant Kingdom for so many years but has not gained any benefit. Especially during this anti-life tree crisis, they actually asked you to destroy the teleportation tower in the territory."

"If we don't destroy the transmission tower, the territory won't be able to survive the attack of the Anti-Life Tree."

"Then they didn't follow the covenant and send the Knights to help when the territory was in danger."

"Because they used the teleportation tower to attract almost all anti-Tree of Life attacks." "You!" Hailin widened his eyes, trying to express his dissatisfaction clearly and explicitly in this way.

Lord Aarhus nodded, indicating that he knew that Hailin was angry, and Hailin immediately lost his temper.

"Silly, we should cooperate. The Mags chaebol has a strong foundation and can turn this territory into a powerful kingdom."

"You can no longer be an ordinary lord, but a king!"

"Then the war will begin, the hard-earned peace will disappear, and everyone will have to live in fear again. Ordinariness is more important than glory." Aarhus Territory shook his head, turned and walked to the door.

"Sometimes I fantasize that if I were not the heir to the lord and you were not the heir to the Mags tycoon, we would be more relaxed."

"So I will keep an eye on you and not let you do anything bad, my villain childhood sweetheart."

"What are you talking about!" Helin bent down and took off his shoes, intending to throw them at Lord Aarhus's face, but in the end he put them down and threw them on the ground.

But she couldn't just give up like that. She felt very upset, so she immediately rushed to the window on the top of the teleportation tower, lay on the windowsill and waited until Lord Aarhus showed his head, then threw her shoes down and waved her fists and shouted.

"I hate you. You never help me when I need you. I will never remember your kindness!"

Lord Aarhus was hit by a shoe, but what was more terrifying than this harmless attack was the foreigners around him who were staring with wide eyes and full of gossip.

He had to explain.

"No, she meant that I always solved the problem before it happened, so it seemed that I was always against her. There was nothing else to it."

Seeing Lord Aarhus surrounded, Hailin retracted his head guiltily.

She sat in the shadows and sighed softly.

The traditions of the Gianes were sometimes not so solid, and could not change the fact that when two people went in opposite directions, they were bound to drift further and further apart.

……

In a dim space somewhere, people hiding their bodies in the darkness were whispering and arguing.

"As expected, simply replacing the teleportation tower network is useless. Hermes's Travel Hat is not that easy to defeat."

"I've said it before, [Hermes's Traveling Hat] is the former Titan Evil God, and it's not an opponent that can be defeated by tricks. If you want to regain sovereignty, you can only fight head-on and come up with something that can dominate the market."

"..."

The quarrels were endless because no one was willing to come up with any ideas and no one wanted to be the one to get killed.

Until a hand with fish scale patterns placed a huge gem on the table.

"Have you ever heard of the treasure house of Atlantis?"
