Idle game leads to another world

The essence of commerce is actually transportation, transporting things from the east to the west.

As for which item is more profitable to transport, it depends on the judgment of the merchant.

Before Teresa came, she had thought about what Viola might need and made preparations in advance to maximize the benefits of this trip.

But it has to be said that troop deployment maps are not something that ordinary traveling merchants can get their hands on.

"Where did you get it?"

“With a little connection, a little attentiveness, you can trust Theresa’s credibility.”

Of course Theresa will not expose her wealth. She is a pure businessman. As long as there are customers who need them, she will find a way to get the goods. As for who the customers are, it doesn't matter.

"Teresa's information is always very accurate and well-informed. There is no doubt about its authenticity. As for where she got it..."

Aldai pointed to Trosha's backpack. Inside the open backpack, a white palm-shaped mark was vaguely visible.

That's the emblem of the White Hand Society.

This is a huge intelligence organization that spans multiple dimensions. It claims that as long as the starting price is paid, it will sell anything, whether it is the underwear the emperor is wearing today or information on long-lost legendary magic items.

"I hate it, Miss Aldai, please don't expose me."

The characteristics of the White Hand Association make them unpopular with all rulers. After all, no one wants to have a group of guys in their territory who dare to sell any information.

But it is true that the White Hand Association's integrity is trustworthy. They may be greedy for money but the information must be accurate.

"Okay, I bought your information."

“Thank you for your patronage!”

Trosha rubbed his hands very happily. He completed two big orders at once and made a lot of money regardless of the cost.

"By the way, I have something else to ask you to help investigate."

"What's the matter? As long as you can afford the price, Miss Aldai, this won't be a problem."

"What do you know about the recent lack of response from the gods?"

Mentioning this matter, Teresa's smile dropped:

"I do know some inside information, but the price..."

"How much?"

"Ten million gold coins, no discount."

"..."

"This is news from the headquarters. The pricing is unified. No matter where you go to buy this news, it will never be cheaper."

This price is too outrageous, it can be said that there is no intention of letting anyone buy it at all.

But this does mean that the gods have not yet responded to the importance of this matter.

"Although I can't disclose the specific things, you probably don't care about this. Taking advantage of the fact that the gods have not responded is the perfect opportunity for the development of the Demon King's Cult."

It is true that the Demon King's Cult is now a dominant one, with Kaimen City as the center. With the actions of merchants, the Demon King's teachings have begun to spread to surrounding areas.

Priests will be very religious, but most lay people will be very practical.

If your god doesn't give you magic, and you can't cure my injuries, then I'll find someone who can.

“I can’t say specifically, but do you know when the gods will return?

"We don't know the exact time, but it is expected that the gods will not return in about one or two years. Just treat this information as a gift for old customers, and there will be no charge."

In other words, the two years are the most important period of development and the best time for Viola to restore her country to avoid interference by religious forces from other countries.

"Since this thing doesn't work, then I have other commissions."

"Just say it."

"How much do you know about the Demon King's Ring?"

Viola immediately looked at Aldai with serious eyes, and the latter secretly waved her hands to show that she knew what was appropriate.

The White Hand Association uses information as a commodity. If Aldai reveals too much, this information will be sold to others as a commodity in the future. She knows what can and cannot be said.

"The Demon King's Ring?"

Teresa rolled her eyes:

"This is a difficult problem..."

"No information?"

"It's hard to say. It's too old. At that time, our White Hand Association was not active in this plane, but...hey, as long as you can afford the price, I will naturally inquire about it."

"How many do you want?"

"The deposit is 1,500 gold coins. Any more will be refunded or compensated."

"No problem. I want the exact location of the Demon King's Ring. It's best to have a clear record rather than an ambiguous guess."

"Big clients have many demands, but I'm sure that's fine."

The Demon King's Ring is an artifact after all, and its clues are actually so cheap, not even as good as a poetry manuscript from the mythical age.

The reason is simple, because it is an artifact.

Not everyone can touch the artifact. Unless you get permission from the god, the consequences of touching the artifact will be very serious.

This thing is not even considered garbage in the hands of ordinary people, it can only be regarded as a cursed magic item. Not only is it useless, it will bring disaster.

If it is other powerful legendary magic items, the information fee alone will start at 100,000 gold coins, and will increase depending on the value of the legendary magic items.

Having said that, although Aldai placed the order, she actually had no expectations for how much accurate information Theresa could provide.

After all, Teresa just said that the White Hand Association had not yet been active in this plane during the Age of Mythology, and there was very little information about that era, let alone the crucial Ring of the Demon King.

But this is a matter of checking for omissions and filling in the gaps. Aldai will investigate by herself, and with the intelligence support of the White Hand Association, at least some wrong answers can be eliminated.

Anyway, in her opinion, any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.

"Oh, by the way, Your Highness Viola, I also have information about the Demonic Kingdom of Oswaya. Are you interested?"

The Demon Kingdom of Oswea, an ally of the Demon Kingdom of Avarus, does not share a border with each other, so it is a typical example of distant relations and close attacks.

But when the Avarus Demon Kingdom was invaded by the four-nation coalition, the Oswea Demon Kingdom did not respond. Even though they had a feud with the Tandelon Demon Kingdom, one of the four-nation coalition forces, they did not take advantage of the Tandelon Demon Kingdom. Attack when your base is empty.

This strange reaction puzzled Viola. Even if it wasn't for the sake of the allies, she wouldn't let the enemy take the opportunity, right?

So when she heard the news about the Demon Kingdom of Oswea, Viola immediately asked:

"How many do you want?"

"Not much. I believe this news will reach your ears within a month or two, so I only need a hundred gold coins for running errands."

"Your errands are quite expensive."

"Of course, I have some inside information that will give you your money's worth."

In today's era, long-distance communication basically relies on carrier pigeons and messengers. Long-distance magic communication must rely on establishing nodes and relaying them step by step. Generally, only national-level finances can support it, and very little information can be transmitted.

From this perspective, the timeliness of information is important.

"Okay, I bought it."

"Thank you for your patronage."

Teresa's fox eyes almost narrowed into slits, and she said happily:

"The Demon Kingdom of Oswaya is gathering troops recently. The Demon Kingdom of Tanderon has also discovered this and recalled some of the troops sent to the Demon Kingdom of Avarus. However, the Demon Kingdom of Tanderon does not know that Osway The target of the Subya Demon Kingdom is not them, but the neighboring Subia Demon Kingdom.”

"So, is it for the Shiloc Fortress?"

"As you said."

This fortress is stuck between the Subia Demon Kingdom and the Tandelon Demon Kingdom. It was originally the territory of the Oswea Demon Kingdom, but it was never able to take it back because of the defeat.

Later, the Demon Kingdom of Subia attacked the Demon Kingdom of Tandron, and the fortress changed hands again.

For the two countries, taking this fortress is equivalent to having an extra security door. It is best to have it. If you don't have it, you don't care.

But for the Demon Kingdom of Oswaya, this fortress is already their most important gate. Once the enemy country sets out from the fortress, it will even attack the hinterland of the Demon Kingdom of Oswaya.

The Demon Kingdom of Oswaya, which had been silent until now, took action at this time. Although she didn't know the reason, Viola saw an opportunity.

An opportunity to significantly weaken the four-nation coalition and then restore the country!
