Don't call me evil god

Chapter 239 Acquisition Plan
There is an extremely spacious and magnificent hall inside the Qiusuo Tongtu, covering an area of ​​thousands of square meters.

With a floor height of more than 9 meters and a large number of supporting columns, carved beams and painted buildings, the interior of the entire building is filled with solemnity and sacredness.

Sam subconsciously slowed down his steps when he walked in.

Although there are no spectacular sculptures or precious treasures inside the building, the imposing structure alone is enough to give people a strong shock.

Deep in the hall there is a "door" that looks like it leads to a misty valley, with two uniformed clerks stationed at the door.

When Sam tried to go over to see what was going on, he was politely stopped by the other party.

"Sorry, for your safety, only believers of the Lord can enter the back area."

"To participate in the study of the Seeking Knowledge Doctrine, please go to the second floor."

"The test will be held at midnight on Tuesday. If you want to participate, please arrive at the basement in advance."

Sam scratched his head: "Okay, I get it."

The same is true for churches of other gods. Only limited areas in the church are open to outsiders.

The Church of Seeking Knowledge does not exist as a church in the strict sense, but to Sam, Seeking the Way feels a bit like a church that spreads and promotes doctrines.

The only thing that puzzled him was that the other party's words when trying to dissuade him were "for his safety."

"Is there any danger in there?"

Unable to immediately find out whether it was a "resurrection" or not, Sam hesitated.

After all, he saw Brandon coming out of here with his own eyes. Whether it was divine magic or blessing, it must be related to the God of Knowledge.

Since it is related to this mysterious god, there should be clues in the teachings, right?

Again.

Just because he has learned the other party's doctrines doesn't mean he is willing to give up his faith!
Didn’t they say it when they introduced it? Just learning the doctrine is not enough, you also have to take the test.

He tried to learn it first.

Just understand a little bit and don’t get involved too much!
……

at the same time.

Ceylon City.

Several weapons and armor merchants who formed the "Business Alliance" gathered together again after several days.

The worry on everyone's brows not only did not lessen, but became even more intense.

"how is the situation?"

"It's worse."

"We no longer see those guys selling super cheap equipment at the border defense camp, but... for some reason, we still can't sell our goods!"

"And I heard that the number of adventurers in the defense camp seems to have decreased significantly!"

"In previous years, there would be at least hundreds of adventurers coming here at this time, right?"

"How many are there this year?"

"Very few, it seems, only a few dozen here and there."

"Damn it, they all went straight into the Dark Forest?"

"Someone who went in should also come out. How can it be that only one person went in but no one came out? Could they all have died in there?"

"Any news from the killer?"

When he heard someone mention the killer, the bearded businessman in the lead frowned even more.

"No, there is absolutely no news. It's as if they disappeared from the face of the earth."

The three stalker killers contacted by the bearded businessman through an intermediary had collaborated twice in the past.

Although the other party's asking price is high, their "professional quality" is indeed quite strong.

A Tier 3 Stalker, if lucky enough and able to seize the opportunity wisely, may even have the chance to assassinate a Tier 4 Archmage single-handedly.

Normally, news of a successful assassination would be received in one or two days at the fastest, or three to five days at the slowest.

The bearded merchant used this trick to kill two guys who tried to interfere with Ceylon's weapons and armor business, ensuring their monopoly on the market.

As a result, this trick that had always worked didn't work this time.

He felt a little uneasy. No news was also a kind of news in a sense.

They failed, so there was no response.

He was able to escape the assassination of a Tier 3 stealth fighter, and most likely even managed to kill the enemy in return!

This is what annoys the bearded man the most.

He found out from the information merchant that the goblin named Hugo Xiwei was obviously an ordinary person, and he seemed to have an unclear relationship with the refugee camp outside the city.

How could such a guy possibly defeat a powerful Tier 3 Stalker? !

After thinking about it, Bearded Man could only think of one possibility.

There is someone behind the other party.

Hugo Sivi is probably just a spokesperson who is put forward in public. There is someone else who is actually in charge of this ultra-low-price dumping of equipment.

Thinking of this, the bearded man began to plan.

He who knows the times is a hero. There is no doubt that he knows the times very well.

"Don't panic! Listen to me! Listen to me!"

When it comes to doing business, assassination or price war, they are all means!
Everyone’s ultimate goal is not just to make money!

The bearded man analyzed seriously: "No matter who the other party is, Hugo Xiwei should just be a spokesperson."

"It's normal for a business representative to die in a business war, and he's not dead!"

"In this case, I think we have room for negotiation with the other party, right?"

"We established this business alliance in the first place, wasn't it so that we could join forces and make money from the areas around Ceylon?"

"The other party has proven his strength. He has sufficient supply and good strength. I recognize him."

"We are also quite powerful. We previously monopolized the market in Ceylon, right?"

“We can extend an olive branch to each other!”

"Price wars and assassinations will only hurt both sides in the end."

"Join hands to monopolize the market and drive up prices, and everyone will make money, and everyone will be happy."

The bearded man's words can be summed up in two words:

Persuaded!

He couldn't afford a price war, and the assassination attempt also failed.

The only thing we can do is to ask the other party to join the business alliance and make everyone “one of our own”.

"But will the other party be willing to join us?" someone asked hesitantly.

The bearded man affirmed, "That guy is obviously new here. Even if he wants to sell, he can't find a suitable channel. Unlike us, we have stores all over the surrounding areas of Ceylon Territory."

"If he wants to make money, he definitely needs our channels!"

"I think if he really wants to do business properly, he might contact us soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, as if to confirm the bearded man's statement, there was a knock on the door outside the room where the equipment merchants were gathering.

"My Lords, a letter to you!"

The businessman near the door stood up and opened it.

There was no one outside the door, and there was a letter left on the ground.

"Look! Look! What did I say!"

The bearded man took the envelope and opened it with a smug look on his face.

"If nothing unexpected happens, that guy must be planning to take the initiative to discuss cooperation with us. Look, isn't it written here? It's about the acquisition plan of weapons and equipment sales business?!"

"Walter?! What the hell?!"
