The powerful Gargoyles, the agile and fearless Undead Naga Army, as well as the Ratman Army that was not worth mentioning in individual combat but had a ridiculous amount of numbers …
Such a combination was a force that could not be ignored in any hell.
Huai Shi could be said to have gained a lot from this summoning.
But in fact … he was in a bad mood.
Any fat sheep that had been ruthlessly ripped off several times would not be in a good mood, even if they were not the ones paying the bill. This would only highlight Huai Shi's incompetence, even if everyone knew that it was the Ivy League's doing.
The Gargoyles that opened their mouths like lions, the unruly Undead Naga Army, and even the Ratmen that looked spectacular but could only fight with ease … No matter which one it was, they were not the type that could be easily controlled.
If there was a battle, then so be it. It was completely wishful thinking to expect them to work for the Ivory Tower.
A power that could not be truly controlled was not considered a power.
At best, it was just for show.
He might have spent money to invite a bunch of masters back.
Huai Shi's original expectations for this summoning were almost completely dashed. He could only try his best to compensate for the damage caused by the Ivy League's plan being suddenly thwarted.
Just blowing the trumpet caused him to fall into such a passive situation, and he was almost flustered.
The embarrassment brought by reality made Huai Shi want to be incompetent and furious, but in the end, he restrained himself from such a loser behavior.
He forced himself to remain calm. After presiding over the ceremony, he once again began the unplanned summoning …
This time, he threw aside all the media provided by the Iron Crystal Constellation and began the last summoning of the day.
For a long time after the light shone, there was no sound.
Huai Shi pulled out the Sword of Virtue and inserted it again. He hung up and replayed, replayed, and replayed. He had to patiently throw a series of harassment messages into the abyss.
Until a helpless voice came from the matrix.
"Hello, I'm not here. Please leave a message …"
"Don't pull the wool over my eyes. I know you're at home."
Huai Shi sneered and bluntly exposed the other party's lie. "To be honest, I'm not in a good mood right now. If you hang up on me, I'll definitely try my best to bring the people from the astronomy club to find you and have a chat —"
"Aiya, what are you saying!" Kitten's tone became aggrieved, as if Huai Shi had done something heartless. "We're all family, there's no need to be like this …"
"Hehe, then return the authorization fee to me. “
"Hello? The signal is bad, so I can't hear you. "Kitten raised her voice and asked blankly," What are you talking about? Do you want to hang up and call again? "
"Alright, stop pretending. I'm not here to ask you for money."
"Then you must have something even more troublesome waiting for me. Why don't you bring the Astronomy Association to raid my house?"
Kitten let out a long sigh. "Do you think it's easy for me to earn some dishonest money? You are the Prince of Paradise, okay? The copyright image is part of the paradise. I've given you so many benefits, and I've only collected a little authorization fee from you. Why are you always thinking about it? Don't you have any gratitude … "
Huai Shi didn't say anything.
He just raised his eyebrows and looked at the outline that faintly appeared in the matrix. It wasn't until Kitten began to have goosebumps all over his body that he smiled.
"Since you admit that I'm the Prince of Paradise, then it's reasonable for me to use the people from the legal department, right?"
"No!"
Kitten shook her head and flatly refused. "All transfers that are not within the authority of the paradise are against the rules — you'd better kill me!"
Huai Shi said calmly, "I'll pay."
"…" Kitten fell into silence.
Huai Shi spoke again. "You can name the price."
"…"
Kitten didn't speak again. She opened her mouth several times as if she wanted to refuse, but Huai Shi's promise was too tempting. She didn't know how to reply.
"It's up to you whether you agree or not."
Huai Shi waited for too long and was a little impatient. "If you don't agree, I'll leave. In the future, I'll break up with the paradise, and don't mention the title of the Prince of Paradise anymore. Is there a reason in the world to use others as a signboard and not help at all when something happens? "
"…"
After a short silence, Kitten finally couldn't help but sigh. "I can only give you five. Recently, the paradise has been expanding, and there's really not enough manpower …"
"Okay."
Huai Shi said, "But I want the few who worked with me last time."
"And … this has to be considered a business trip. In addition to food, accommodation, and transportation subsidies, the employment fee will be doubled! Nine to five, and overtime on weekends will be charged separately! "
"Okay."
Kitten asked for a high price, and Huai Shi returned the money. He said decisively, "But if that's the case, I'll have to use my authorization fee as collateral to pay part of it. Also, you have to give me a receipt and invoice three times the amount!"
"Hiss …"
On the other side, Kitten sucked in a breath of cold air and sighed with emotion. "Are you still human!"
"Look at what you're saying. These days, it's not easy to make some dishonest money."
Huai Shi calmly returned the original words.
Kitten was speechless.
It didn't say that it couldn't do so. Although it didn't want to give out the copyright and licensing fees for Huai Shi's poems, compared to the huge amount of employment fees, the licensing fees were just a small addition.
So, it simply wiped out the zeros for him.
But Huai Shi's show made it a little dizzy …
It shocked Kitten for a whole year.
After eating the first party, eating the second party, falsely reporting the purchase price, and still forcefully receiving rebates. Why was this trick so good? Was this really the pure and harmless little guy from back then?
Although it was said that learning to be good for three years and bad for three days, after not seeing him for a few months, he had become so bad … Wasn't it too f * cking ridiculous?
But what did this have to do with Kitten?
"It's settled then."
It immediately made the decision and happily rubbed its little hands. "Sign the contract."
Five minutes later, Huai Shi deducted the part of his copyright fee from the urgently delivered advance payment, stuffed it into his bag, and threw the rest into the summoning matrix.
Then, as the light lit up, five tall good brothers in black suits and sunglasses walked out of the matrix.
The leader nodded to Huai Shi and saluted. After greeting the Prince of Kitten Paradise, he handed over a set of invoices and receipts for Kitten Paradise. Then, without needing to be told, he led the team and stood behind Huai Shi, looking like a personal bodyguard, the Prince's hired thug.
Huai Shi waved to Lin Shijiu, who was rushing over from afar, and then handed over the invoice.
"Take it to the head of affairs to report the account."
Huai Shi paused for a moment and said to the hut in the forest, "Tell him that when the money from the Ivory Tower arrives, the extra money will be distributed as welfare subsidies. Also, give more compensation to the deceased members … Life in hell is not easy, so just treat it as Secretary Huai treating everyone to a meal."
From the beginning to the end of the negotiation process, Huai Shi did not hide it from the Iron Crystal Constellation.
The wolf dog was squatting next to him.
Besides, what was the point of hiding this kind of thing?
Could they report him to the head of the Iron Crystal Constellation? Sorry, I'm the head of the Iron Crystal Constellation …
And he didn't embezzle much. He didn't even keep a cent of the extra money. He just took back his own copyright fee.
Although it was somewhat against the rules, wasn't it good?
He got back his copyright fee, the Iron Crystal Constellation got reinforcements, and all the members got benefits.
Everyone had a bright future.
How good was that!
After confirming that Huai Shi's safety was not a problem, the wolf dog nudged Huai Shi a few times and then left with its tail wagging.
Lin Shijiu, with a look of panic, was still standing there without moving.
"What's the matter?" Huai Shi asked.
"That group of Hell … They … They started fighting before the contract was signed. After they were separated, they were still arguing and shouting that they wanted to see you."
"So fast?"
Huai Shi laughed. "What a coincidence. I also have something to talk to them about."
For some reason, his mood, which had been terrible for a long time, suddenly became cheerful.
He couldn't wait.
.
.
When Huai Shi arrived at the Iron Crystal Constellation's outer encampment, the temporarily built hall was already in a mess.
But at least they didn't fight in front of Huai Shi. A few large groups clearly occupied the corners of the room.
The person in charge of the contract signing was livid. He stood in the middle and didn't say a word. Obviously, he was very angry. Huai Shi walked in and waved at him to calm down. Then, he looked at the group of Gargoyles.
"What's going on?"
The leader of the Gargoyles calmly held up the completed contract scroll in his hand, indicating that they had signed the contract and that the chaos had nothing to do with them.
The ones causing trouble were the Undead Nagas and the Ratmen.
"I'm sorry for causing trouble, but we can't accept living with other people."
Among the Nagas, the one who had white scales stepped forward. He looked like he was old. The scales on his face were full of gaps. His left eye was blind, but his right eye was frighteningly bright. "In order to ensure that the mounts are in good condition and have good rest, we request separate lodging and food."
"You should have said so earlier. Okay, no problem."
Huai Shi smiled warmly. "How about I arrange separate lodging for you? If you're not satisfied, I'll ask someone to build more for you. Your needs will be prioritized. Do you have any other questions? "
"And …"
The one who gave the name was about to say something, but when he saw the young man's dark eyes and passionate expression, he didn't know why, but when he was about to say something more, he was stuck.
He paused for a long time and suddenly shook his head. "No, that's all."
He said, "We're very satisfied with all the arrangements."
"Is that so? That's good. "
Huai Shi seemed to be relieved. He held the Undead Army's hand enthusiastically. "Our Ivory Tower and the Undead Army have a deep friendship. Naturally, we shouldn't mistreat them in this place. If there's anything you're not satisfied with, please do tell me! "
"… O-okay."
After a short pause, the one who gave the name nodded and returned to the formation.
Its deputy flicked its tongue and asked in a low voice in their language, "Honorable Elder, didn't you say that you could increase the price based on their situation?"
"Don't worry. I still feel that something is wrong."
The leader of the group was silent for a long time. He pulled a piece of dry grass from his leather bag and stuffed it into his mouth. "Let's wait and see."
He said, "Let's wait and see."
Behind the cover of his subordinates, he quietly looked at the young man who was surrounded and quarreled with the Ratmen. He felt that something was wrong.
From the moment he saw the young man, his sharp intuition, which had been brought about by hundreds of battles, had been beating wildly. There was no warning, and it brought about an uneasy premonition for no reason.
He could not understand it, but at the same time, it was so real that he subconsciously followed the guidance of his intuition and chose to stop while he was ahead.
After a long period of observation, he could not see anything special about the young man. When he was about to look away, he saw the light tubes hanging from the ceiling.
He suddenly felt a chill all over his body. He finally noticed where the abnormality was.
In a daze, the old Ratman narrowed his eyes and looked at Huai Shi's feet.
It was unbelievable.
Why … did that person have five shadows?
Before he could think carefully, chaos spread out again.
The Ratmen's sharp screams stuttered.
"This, this, this is different from what we agreed on!"
Among the Ratmen, a burly Ratman in chainmail pulled Huai Shi's collar angrily. He led his subordinates and began to clamor. "Changqing, Green Vine, the price you offered is much, much higher than what you offered!"
"You, you have to pay more!!!"
