Quadruple split

Even for a person like Muse who is so cultivated, qualified, independent-minded, aware, and wise, he can't stand it.

To be honest, when Mo Tan blurted out the words 'nine hundred thousand', this shadow master who was two levels stronger than the ones at the door just wanted to give him a white knife to go in and a red knife to come out, and a red knife to go in again. The red knife comes out again!

But he finally calmed down his excited heart and suppressed his trembling hand.

Can't take any chances! At least not for now...

You must know that not only did he not know Mo Tan's strength at this time, but he also didn't see clearly where the opponent hid the small box. Not only was he not sure of killing the opponent, but it was also unknown whether he would be able to find what he wanted after success. !

[So, don’t take risks! 】

Muse, who originally stood up because of anger and anxiety, let out a long breath, then slowly sat down again, picked up a crystal cup from the tray at the bottom of the round table, and raised his hand to Mo Tan: " Can I have a drink?"

"Ha, smart man~" Mo Tan grinned, a trace of surprise flashed behind the inorganic confusion in his eyes, and then he put the half bottle of wine in his hand in front of the muse: "If you are not afraid that I have done anything here, Just do it yourself.”

Muse picked up the wine bottle and filled the cup in front of him, and raised the cup to Mo Tan: "If you can add ingredients so fast that I don't notice it at all, then you don't need to take my life." Poisoning is so troublesome, isn’t it?”

"So I have given you a high degree of recognition as a 'smart person'." Mo Tan said leisurely: "And I have raised my evaluation of you a little, second-rate, Mr. Muse."

Muse shrugged, drank the bright red wine in the glass, and suddenly smiled: "It's a great honor to be praised."

"Oh?" Mo Tan stood up unsteadily, leaned over and stared into Muse's eyes, and said softly: "I thought you wanted to do something with me just now~"

He couldn't help but feel it. Just the murderous aura that Muse inadvertently revealed in those few seconds caused Mo Tan to lose a small amount of physical energy. Although the concept of "pretending" is the same in the eyes of NPCs and players. , but things like murderous intent and coercion are very strict.

The weak Motan can only bring psychological pressure to people, but Muse's murderous intention can make the physical value of weak players drop like a floodgate.

The system is fair.

But this justice did not change the situation, because although Mo Tan felt uncomfortable all over when he suffered the murderous intent of the Muse, his expression and body shape did not change at all, and although the Muse's eyes were vicious, , but without the means to observe the data, it is impossible to see the slightest difference from the former.

"Who are you?"

Muse's voice became a little cold. This was not because he wanted to get angry or hurt others, but because the de facto leader of the Thieves Guild had taken off his disguise. There is no need to maintain the illusion at this moment, and those disguises will have no effect on the rest of the conversation.

Mo Tan still just smiled cynically: "It's a long story, but as far as the current situation is concerned, the most suitable identity for me should be the owner of a valuable item, and that thing... you want .”

"Yes." Muse said solemnly: "So let me talk frankly about this sealed box..."

"No need." Mo Tan waved his hand, interrupted Muse, then turned and walked to the lounge behind his chair, saying without looking back: "I have always been a pure and upright person. so……"

He paused and opened his arms in an exaggerated way: "The negotiations broke down and that's it for today."

Then he walked into the lounge with the door ajar.

Muse quickly stood up and chased after her, but...

People are gone.

Just letting the other person out of sight for less than 2 seconds, that person actually disappeared!

"This is impossible!" Looking at the empty lounge, Muse exclaimed in disbelief: "Impossible!"

The space is not big enough for him to see everything at a glance, and this lounge is located in the corner of Room 11, and there is not half a window in it...

There are no windows, no back doors, no blind spots, and no theoretically feasible hiding places. Even ventilation is accomplished through a magic circle.

Muse couldn't imagine how the other party did it. Even a high-level space mage couldn't teleport in just two seconds. Even if the spell was engraved on a scroll or a high-level enchanted item in advance, it would definitely be exposed. There were relatively inconsistent magic fluctuations and spatial distortion, but Muse could not feel these two points at all.

【This is impossible! 】

"Blood Chain, Flower Snake, Ye Yin, Acupuncture!" Muse shouted to his companions guarding the door: "Come in quickly!"

However, at this moment, he suddenly saw a piece of paper at his feet. The handwriting on it was elegant and flamboyant...

[Please put away that stupid look on your face. 】

This was the first sentence Muse saw after unfolding the note.

He frowned and continued to look down.

[You are a pretty smart guy, at least smarter than those unsavory guys outside the door, so I decided to give you a discount of one million as agreed before. Of course, I plan to give you a generous discount. For you, that is to say, it is up to you to decide how much you want to spend on this box. 】

‘You guys, block the door and check this lounge as quickly as possible! ’ When Muse saw this, he suddenly raised his hand to stop several of his colleagues behind him, and then continued reading while sweating profusely.

[No need to be surprised, there are too many things in this world that you don’t know. I have no obligation or mood to popularize science for mediocre people, so let’s get down to business now...]

[I will now give you the initiative. There is only one chance. Tomorrow at midnight, at the north gate of Black Tower City, you can find any trustworthy person to find me there and bring an amount you think is appropriate in exchange for the one that is actually right for me. It's a useless box. 】

[The premise is that the amount satisfies me. Don't forget that I said that there is only one chance, so if you don't grasp it, I will destroy the box immediately. 】

[No one can stop me, whether it’s breaking something or leaving this barren countryside. Think about it yourself. It would be bad if it doesn’t reach the level of ‘satisfying me’, isn’t it? 】

[By the way, the Legend of Zelda mentioned before is just for fun. 】

that's it……

That's all the content on the note was.

But this still couldn't ease the livid face under the muse's mask.

【horrible. 】

This was the only word he could think of right now.

It was definitely a wise move not to take action just now!

You must know that Muse has never seen a thief who is so powerful that he can disappear in front of him in the blink of an eye, let alone in a room with no other exits in principle, not to mention that he still stays there for at most three seconds. Write such a note!

"Boss Muse, I didn't find anything here." Xue Lian, who walked around the lounge carefully, said solemnly: "I didn't find any shortcuts or places to hide people." Hua She shrugged.

"How did that guy get out?! This is completely beyond my imagination!" Ye Yin's voice also came from the air.

"It's like evaporating out of thin air." Acupuncture smacked her lips and asked Muse with some fear: "Who is he?"

The latter shook his face-less head, stared at the note in his hand and shook his head slightly: "I don't know, but at least one thing is certain, that is, no matter what the circumstances, it is best not to go. Offend that guy!"

"So, what should we do next?" Ye Yin, who was invisible, asked in a clear voice: "Is there anything else we can do to help? I can go with..."

Muse quickly shook his head: "No, if you go, you may not be able to come back. Now you should return to the guild immediately, or go whatever you should do. Leave this matter to me!"

He has completely given up the idea of ​​'robbery', and now he has begun to mentally calculate what kind of price can satisfy the other party...

…

[You have actively disconnected, please choose whether to reconnect]

"There's no need~"

【Do you want to execute the wake-up procedure? 】

"Please be gentle~"

[Received, it is now 06:47 on January 20, 2049, you will wake up in one minute]

So, one minute later

Mo Tan climbed out of the game cabin with a smile on his face.

He had no reason to be unhappy, because until just now, everything had been according to his plan.

And if nothing else happens, Muse should have given up the idea of ​​causing trouble for himself by now...

[That guy's strength, intelligence and psychological quality are all very good, but it's a pity~ The dimensional restrictions are too big. Under the premise that all aspects are unequal, it is worthy of praise to be able to achieve this level. 】

Mo Tan thought in his heart while humming a little tune and walking towards the kitchen.

It was completely impossible to disappear into the 'secret room', leaving only a piece of paper that was completed in a short period of time. There was no problem in terms of shock.

It's all so simple and outrageous!

First of all, when Mo Tan sat down in the hall of the room, he deliberately sat on the chair closest to the lounge, and then entered the lounge as soon as the opportunity came. Since there was no battle, Mo Tan could log off at any time. Tan then made two operations the moment he was out of sight of the muse...

Throw a note on the ground, and down the line.

He had prepared the notes in advance, and there were about fifty of them in total. The content of each note was different from the extortion amount to the tone and the target. They were compiled by Mo Tan and placed in the luggage in order. To deal with any kind of situation, of course, it is not difficult if Mo Tan deliberately guides the topic.

He also asked Cole to practice offline operations many times with him. Judging from Mo Tan's current psychological quality, the possibility of him performing abnormally is infinitely close to zero.

So, after repeated trials, Muse, who was always prepared, finally decided to give up the dangerous idea of ​​'breaking her face'.

"Full of pleasure." Mo Tan smiled happily while cutting tomatoes: "I feel that my life is so fulfilling now."

He believed that Muse would come up with a price that would satisfy him, because no matter from which angle it looked, the Black Tower City Thieves Guild was determined to get the box.

【Perfect seller's market~】

…

at the same time

City S, a manor, villa rooftop

A sudden ringtone interrupted the first movement of K331 that had just sounded. Judging from the slightly frowned eyebrows of the owner of the phone, this call obviously came at the wrong time.

But she still picked it up quickly, then took a look at the name of the caller and waited patiently for ten seconds before pressing the answer button unhurriedly.

"Hello, Uncle Zhao."

Her voice is soft and low, with a somewhat thick nasal tone. This feature makes her sound several years younger than her actual age on the phone.

The figure under the white windbreaker is a bit slender. Her calm temperament, short black hair, soft facial lines and small and delicate facial features give her a unique classical beauty, as if she had stepped out of a painting.

The man on the other side of the phone whispered something...

"Don't worry, in fact, if you go back home before making this call, you will find that half of what I promised you has been done." She smiled and said with relief: "I like honest people, so First of all I will be an honest person."

The man on the other side of the phone let out a sigh of relief and smiled in relief.

"Then, I hope to hear the news about your withdrawal from that muddy water within seventy-two hours." She picked up the black tea in front of her, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Don't worry about what this will do to you. Whatever bad impact the reputation has caused, I will be responsible for solving the trivial matters later."

The other party immediately promised something loudly, looking very confident.

"Then, please."

She ended the topic with a smile, and then politely waited for the other party to hang up the phone first.

After a sonata time passed, she picked up the phone again and dialed a number.

"The plate I mentioned before has collapsed. Their last major shareholder will withdraw capital within forty-eight hours." She gently stirred the black tea in front of her and said unhurriedly: "Get your people ready. Is it okay to be a little neater?"

The lazy female voice answered in the affirmative.

"Okay, I'm looking forward to it."

…

Time for another sonata.

She picked up her phone again and dialed a number that required three transfers.

"I am Bai Fujin." There seemed to be a faint chill in the girl's smile. She gently stroked the hair beside her ears, and then after confirming the other party's identity, she slightly raised the corners of her mouth: "Zhao Mingguang's All the old debts have been settled, right? Very good, he will be prosecuted as planned in forty-eight hours, and he will take all the blame this time, ha... It will only be an extra seven or eight years, it doesn't matter."

…

"Retaliation? Haha, it doesn't matter. It would be great if he plans to take revenge on me after he comes out. After all, it is a more comfortable stepping stone. I am very patient~"

…

"Then that's it, eh? You asked me if I would betray you, how could I? I like honest people, so first of all I will be an honest person, don't worry~"

…
