Don't call me evil god

Chapter 143 Hugo Seavey's Stand-in Business

Hearing the shout, Pete turned his head and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

A short green-skinned goblin was standing on a small table half a person's height. He was wearing a gray cloth shirt that had been starched and looked a little pale. There was an iron ring around his neck with a row of keys tied to it. He was waving at them with a flattering smile.

Seeing that Pete noticed him, he jumped down and trotted over to Pete and the others.

"Sir, judging from your appearance, this must be your first time to venture into the Dark Forest. Would you like to consider the body double business?"

Pete was stunned: "Substitute? What substitute?"

The goblin introduced with a smile:
"Sir, my name is Hugo Sivi, you can just call me Hugo."

"You should also know that going out to hunt monsters is very dangerous. Those monsters are not only bloodthirsty and crazy, but they are also extremely sensitive to our smell. If we are not careful, we may be besieged by monsters."

Pete hummed.

The goblin was telling the truth.

Most of the casualties when hunting monsters occur when the target is lured into being alone and discovered by other monsters during the process of preparing to attack it.

In that case, we will change from being the besieged party to being the besieged party.

"Please allow me to introduce to you the Adventure Stand-in Business, designed and grandly launched by the future hobgoblin tycoon Hugo Xiwei!"

"With just a few gold coins, you can temporarily hire a 'stand-in' servant who will obey your orders. You can safely let the stand-in do all the dangerous things!"

"After the adventure, if the stand can return here, I will refund you half of the fee."

"Of course, if... well, God of Fortune bless you, if the substitute unfortunately stays in the Dark Forest forever, it doesn't matter. You just won't get a refund."

Gale was puzzled: "What do you mean by a substitute?"

"Hehe," said the goblin Hugo with a sly look on his face, "They are... some refugees who voluntarily signed the agreement."

"I found these people nearby. They are really pitiful people. When I found them, many of them were about to starve to death because they could not get any relief."

"I made a simple agreement with them."

"Follow the employer and leave the kingdom border to adventure outside the Dark Forest. During the adventure, they must obey all the employer's orders and do whatever they are told to do."

"They will be like stand-ins for my most honorable employers, helping you explore dangers and endure harm!"

"If they can return successfully, they can get corresponding compensation from me according to the length of employment."

"If they fail to return, then, oh, it's so sad. Another precious life will be left in that evil forest forever. Let's mourn for them!"

Hugo said this, pretending to wipe away his tears.

The movement of raising his arms caused the keys hanging around his neck to collide with each other, making a clanging sound.

"But I also promised them that they can designate a beneficiary before going on an adventure, and I will transfer their share of the reward to the beneficiary afterwards."

"Sir, you see, these guys are really poor people. If I hadn't helped them, prepared food for them and brought them here, they might have starved to death."

"Ah! I am one of the few good businessmen with a conscience among the goblins!"

"How about it, would you like to consider the body double business?"

"Compared to your precious life, a few gold coins are a trivial price to pay, right?"

Hugo said in a seductive tone.

Gail shook his head decisively: "No, don't."

"When faced with life-threatening situations, who knows if these guys are trustworthy or not." "What if they are afraid of death and run away? What if they even implicate me?"

Hugo had expected this and immediately explained:
"Dear sir, please rest assured, I can guarantee that this will never happen!"

"Please take a look!"

As Hugo spoke, he pulled out a small crystal bottle from the pocket of his cloth coat.

The bottle was filled with a brown unknown liquid. As the bottle was shaken slightly, bubbles would occasionally bubble out.

"I solemnly introduce to you the exclusive potion made by the future earth elf tycoon Hugo Xiwei with the blessing of the god of alchemy - it will cost you 3000 lives!"

Gail's eye twitched.

His family also sells potions, but the names are all normal.

For example, things like sustained-release potions, lightness potions, and firming potions.

Who would have the time to name a potion "3000 Deaths"?
He also used a respectful title, which was quite polite.

Hugo introduced enthusiastically: "This magic potion is a delayed-acting poison that can theoretically be made from any combination of 3000 ingredients!"

"Only by taking the antidote made from the corresponding ingredients can you avoid death from the poison!"

"Its only shortcoming at the moment is that this potion is ineffective against professionals. It can only be effective on ordinary people."

"But it is used to ensure that the substitute obeys your orders. I can guarantee that its effect will definitely meet the needs of distinguished gentlemen!"

"As long as you choose the right substitute, he will take the potion in front of you. Only when you return here successfully can he receive the potion to remove the magic."

"When running away cannot escape the call of death, I believe those substitutes will make the right choice!"

"In addition, if you are still worried, you can pay a little more gold coins from me and buy a D9 collar produced by Caron Sex Toy Store!"

"I modified it and added steel spikes that can be used to stab at any time. The pull switch that controls when it will stab will naturally be handed over to you!"

"Double insurance, guaranteeing that the stand-in who will serve you will work hard and obey all your requests and instructions, helping you to bear all the risks in your adventure!"

After listening to the goblin Hugo's introduction, Gale hadn't figured out what to say yet, when Miranda, who was beside him, burst out with a very unpleasant expression:

"How could you do such a thing!"

"Those refugees are pitiful enough, no one is willing to help them, and now you want to make money with their lives!"

"They are just a group of ordinary people. Even if they don't encounter any monsters when they cross the border, the evil spirit coming from the depths of the dark forest is enough to pose a huge threat to them!"

"What's the difference between this and asking them to die!"

"Believe it or not, I will file a complaint with the Glorious God Church right now..." At this point, Miranda's voice suddenly paused, she hesitated for a few seconds, and could not continue.

She thought of the refugees she had seen outside Ceylon and the homeless people in downtown Greenport.

If reporting to the Church of the Luminous God really works, why are there so many poor people who don't get help?

I am really sorry, when Guozi checked the content of the last two updates, he was not satisfied, and directly posting it would be spamming to trick subscriptions. I have deleted it all and am rewriting it. It is expected to be completed and uploaded before 2 o'clock. There will still be five updates today.

PS: Author's note: Hugo Sewer is a transliteration here. Sewer actually means "sewer", because the goblin Hugo was born and abandoned by his mother in the sewer. He gave himself this surname, which is briefly explained here.
