According to the agreement, on the first of March, the three guilds would each send an elite group to the Cliff State.
A guild's elite group had 500 people, and the Rattlesnake Mercenary Group had less than 600 members, so they did not participate in the Cliff State's pioneering operation.
After the discussion about the Cliff State, it was almost noon. Ouyang Shuo hosted a banquet in the Shanhai Court to entertain the guests.
After lunch, it was free time.
Everyone was free to form groups, tour Shanhai City, or find a place to discuss cooperation.
No one knew what Violet was thinking, but she actually encouraged Mu Lanyue to take the girls to the beach to swim. At this time of the year, the North Bay was still a little cold, not a good time to swim.
Fortunately, players had special physiques, so if they really wanted to go, they could barely go into the sea.
Ouyang Shuo completely underestimated the attraction of the beach and the sea to girls. Not only Violet, but among the ten girls, except for Red Eagle, all were persuaded by Violet and left.
Red Eagle did not go, most likely because she had already been abducted by Bright Moon Illuminates the River.
Siege Lion, Fat Tiger, and the other male companions wanted to go to the beach, but they were mercilessly rejected.
"Pervert!"
Violet rejected them like this.
"…"
Siege Lion and the others' plan died in their throats.
Unwilling to give up, Siege Lion could only take his good brother Fat Tiger to the brothel in Shanhai City to spend time. He even shamelessly called it: to inspect the entertainment industry of Shanhai City, to observe and learn.
Song Wu also went with them.
Compared to Song Wen, Song Wu's private life was simply rotten to the extreme. In reality, he was a typical playboy, changing "girlfriends" at least once a month, never the same.
Song Wen toured Shanhai City with Dragon Seeking Acupoint and Tao Wu.
As a textbook for territory construction, Shanhai City had too many things for them to learn and figure out. Many of the details of the city's construction had to be personally experienced by the lord in order to understand them.
Ouyang Shuo called the Black Mamba to the study alone.
He personally brewed a cup of hot tea, pushed it in front of the Black Mamba, and asked with a smile, "Brother Black, is there any progress in the investigation of Blood Blade?"
Since Ouyang Shuo had entrusted the investigation to Rattlesnake, he did not ask about it during the process. There were two reasons for inviting the Black Mamba to the Alliance of Mountains and Seas Conference. The first reason was to help him expand his network, and the second reason was to investigate the Blood Saber incident.
Rattlesnake had been investigating [Blood Blade] for two months, and it was time to close the net. There was no point in dragging it out any longer. If he really couldn't find any clues, [Blood Blade] would've gotten rid of them long ago.
"Things are more troublesome than I thought." The Black Mamba Snake's expression was solemn. Such an expression was rarely seen on his face. From this, one could see the brilliance of [Blood Blade].
Ouyang Shuo didn't say anything and slowly drank a mouthful of hot tea.
Right now, his ability to maintain his composure was getting more and more profound. He wouldn't be impatient no matter what he encountered.
"Based on the clues you provided, our men indeed found [Bloodshed]'s base in Kyoto. Unfortunately, we were a step too late. When we got there, the place was already empty. "
The Black Mamba Snake was a little dispirited. Rattlesnake had spent a lot of effort just to find this base. Who would've thought that when they got there, they wouldn't even find a hair.
Ouyang Shuo was silent. [Blood Blade] wasn't conceited. They knew that if the assassination failed, they would definitely seek revenge on them. Thus, they decided to cut their losses and simply gave up on the base in Kyoto.
Encountering such a seasoned opponent was really a headache.
"Apart from the base, there's no other news?"
The Black Mamba Snake was startled for a moment. He smiled bitterly and said, "You might not believe it if I say it, but we accidentally found out that [Blood Blade] has already taken the initiative to withdraw the kill order against you."
Because the information came too easily, the Black Mamba Snake suspected that it was a smokescreen released by [Blood Blade].
This was interesting!
Ouyang Shuo frowned. He thought of something and said, "I'm afraid that [Blood Blade] released this news on purpose. When did your men receive this news? "
The Black Mamba Snake said with certainty, "We received the news ten days ago."
"Ten days ago?" Ouyang Shuo's lips curled into a smile. He said, "Ten days ago? That's when the battle of Lian Province just ended? [Blood Blade] is really well-informed. "
"Oh? What do you mean? "The Black Mamba Snake's eyes narrowed.
Ouyang Shuo nodded and didn't explain.
Ouyang Shuo could roughly guess [Blood Blade]'s mentality. Thinking about it, the tyrannical strength that Shanhai City displayed in the battle of Lian Province must have shocked the higher-ups of [Blood Blade].
Perhaps there were intelligence agents from [Blood Blade] among the allied forces.
Facing such an opponent, [Blood Blade] naturally had to weigh the pros and cons. If they forcefully opposed Shanhai City and insisted on assassinating Ouyang Shuo, even if they succeeded in the end, the outcome would not be good.
Moreover, with the secret investigation of the Rattlesnake, [Blood Blade] faintly felt that the influence and tentacles of Shanhai City were not limited to the two big domains of territories and guilds.
Even in the gray area, Shanhai City also had helpers.
Dealing with such a Shanhai City was really not worth it.
Therefore, [Blood Blade] intentionally released the news to show their goodwill!
Ouyang Shuo thought for a moment and said, "How about this, Brother Black, think of a way to send a message to [Blood Blade]."
"Speak!"
[Blood Blade] wasn't the only one who was shocked by the battle of Lian Province. Even the Black Mamba Snake, who had always maintained close cooperation with Shanhai City, was really shocked when he heard the result.
The Yan Huang Alliance, from an outsider's point of view, was a colossus that caused people to tremble in fear.
But such a super invincible giant, after meticulously planning and using all his strength to attack, even with the support of the natives, in the end, still suffered a crushing defeat.
Perhaps even Ouyang Shuo himself didn't know how afraid outsiders were of Shanhai City!
Therefore, the attitude of the Black Mamba Snake towards Ouyang Shuo was more and more respectful.
Ouyang Shuo sensed the emotions of the Black Mamba Snake, but he didn't say anything and continued, "Tell [Blood Blade], I want Lord Chunshen to be killed in public once. Once this is done, all grudges will be written off. "
Ouyang Shuo also didn't want to be entangled with [Blood Blade].
Maybe in the future, he would still need [Blood Blade]. Since [Blood Blade] had already expressed his goodwill, Ouyang Shuo was naturally happy to have another friend.
But towards Lord Chunshen, he still couldn't let go.
Although in the battle of Lian Province, Lord Chunshen had already died in battle once and even dropped the [Golden Qilin Seal]. Only by stabbing Lord Chunshen to death once, Ouyang Shuo would be able to vent his anger.
Hearing this, the Black Mamba Snake laughed, "This is a good idea, you are really bad!"
Ouyang Shuo wanted [Blood Blade] to assassinate Lord Chunshen, naturally to clearly tell [Blood Blade] that he already knew who the financial backer behind [Blood Blade] was.
At the same time, it was also to tell Lord Chunshen that Ouyang Shuo had long seen through his little tricks.
As for how he would choose, it would depend on the sincerity of [Blood Blade].
Thinking about it, when the higher-ups of [Blood Blade] received Ouyang Shuo's request, their expressions would be very interesting.
"Let's not talk about them." Ouyang Shuo waved his hand and continued, "Brother Black, I wonder if you have considered my previous suggestion? Can you give me a reply? "
The suggestion that Ouyang Shuo was referring to was to let Cobra and Viper hold positions in Shanhai City. Cobra planned to be the Director of the Military Intelligence, while Viper planned to be the Chief Instructor of the Special Operations Training Base.
In this period of time, Ouyang Shuo had also chatted with Cobra and Viper. In their hearts, they were more willing to hold positions in Shanhai City. After all, Ouyang Shuo had arranged for them to hold key positions.
Especially for Cobra, the position of the Director of the Military Intelligence was really too tempting.
On the other hand, the two were more nostalgic and could not bear to part with their comrades in Rattlesnake.
The Black Mamba Snake's expression turned serious, and his smile disappeared. He was also in a dilemma.
In the Rattlesnake mercenary group, besides Black Mamba himself, there were five other core members named after poisonous snakes. Cobra and Viper were two of them.
Once the two of them left the group, it would have a huge impact on Rattlesnake.
Moreover, the Black Mamba Snake was also worried that once a precedent was set, it would not be easy to lead the group in the future.
And this, was the most fatal.
Seeing the expression of the Black Mamba Snake, Ouyang Shuo already had some understanding in his heart.
Ouyang Shuo knew that if he could not come up with a creative solution, not only would his plan of poaching people fail, it would also affect the cooperation between Shanhai City and Rattlesnake.
After all, as long as there was a knot in their hearts, it would be impossible for them to cooperate intimately.
Ouyang Shuo thought for a moment, and decided to throw out his trump card.
Just as the Black Mamba Snake was worried, previously, Ouyang Shuo indeed wanted to gradually incorporate the [Rattlesnake Mercenary Group] through poaching people one by one.
Now that he thought about it, his original idea was indeed not considered.
Since that was the case, Ouyang Shuo wanted to try and see if he could solve the problem in one go.
"May I ask, Brother Black, where do you want to bring the [Rattlesnake Mercenary Group] to in the end?" Ouyang Shuo changed the topic and threw out a big question.
Hearing this, the Black Mamba Snake smiled bitterly.
"To tell you the truth, I really have not thought about it. You also know that we are a group of soldiers, and other than fighting, we do not know anything else. Whether it is in reality or in the game, those who are capable will accept employment and make a lot of money. Make money, drink the strongest alcohol, sleep with the sexiest women, that is our goal. "
Ouyang Shuo nodded his head. The Black Mamba Snake's words were crude, but the logic was crude.
"Since it is like this, then let me be the only employer of the [Rattlesnake Mercenary Group], how about it?"
The Black Mamba Snake's eyes narrowed, "What do you mean?"
He knew that for Ouyang Shuo to say such words, it was not without reason.
"Simple." Ouyang Shuo did not keep him in suspense, "The [Rattlesnake Mercenary Group] will move to Shanhai City, and exclusively serve Shanhai City. I will double your total income. "
"How about it?"
The Black Mamba Snake had to admit that he was completely stunned by Ouyang Shuo's big move! (To be continued.)
