Chapter 848 The Art of Bargaining
Chapter 848 The Art of Bargaining
Do you want to save me... So besides these true gods, are you targeting me too?
Looking at the man who was holding a long string of true gods' souls in his hand, but neither taking action nor leaving, but just looking up at his God of Food below, Wuyouzhishu, who was hovering in the sky, couldn't help but grit his teeth, staring at Leon more and more fiercely.
However, even though he wanted to pounce on him immediately and tear the damn God of Cookery into pieces, when he saw the expectant expression on Leon's face, Wu Youzhishu felt a slight chill on his back, and the anger that had originally filled his mind was frozen into ice chips in the blink of an eye.
That's the look!
Before, when he heard that more than thirty true gods would descend, they looked at him with this disgusting look, then smiled and gave him a thumbs up, saying that the King-Slaying Society would surely prosper under his leadership.
As for the final result...
Looking at the string of true gods in Lyon's hand, Wu Youzhishu in the sky couldn't help but be silent for a while, then turned around and left without saying a word!
No way! Wait till you die!
Although as a pillar god, he is stronger than the ordinary Director Huang Dao, but the prerequisite is that the place must not be chosen in the real world. Under the forced suppression of the Watch Palace, the strength he can exert is not much stronger than that of an ordinary true god, and he is definitely not a match for Director Huang Dao.
The people from the Pisces Branch were not far from the Secret City. They had to withdraw because they had no way to deal with the "Bedtime Story". Now that the "Bedtime Story" had been cancelled by themselves, if the God of Food notified the Pisces Branch...
……
"Don't worry, the director of the Pisces Branch will not come."
As if he had guessed what Wu Youzhishu was afraid of, Leon below directly shouted in comfort:
"She was beaten up and is not in good condition now. She will probably need to recover for a while, so you still have a good chance of rescuing her."
Bah! Even a fool knows it's impossible!
"How about this?"
Seeing Wuyouzhishu flying straight up into the sky and refusing to turn back no matter how much he shouted, Leon thought for a moment and then made a promise:
"If you are willing to come down and fight with me, I can promise to let one third of these true gods go... How about that? Are you interested this time?"
"?!!!"
Faced with Leon's outrageous proposal, the black crow froze in mid-flight, then stopped its wings and said in doubt:
"Are you serious?"
"of course it's true."
Looking up at Wuyouzhishu who had stopped fleeing, Leon explained sincerely:
"The truth you hold is too dangerous. It can even bypass the protection of the Watchtower Palace. Although I am confident that I can resist it, others may not be so sure. So if I can get a chance to deal with you by just letting go of a few True Gods, I think it is still a good deal."
"..."
If he can really let go of some of the true gods...then we might as well take a chance and give it a try?
Seeing that he didn't even pretend anymore and frankly said that he just wanted to kill his God of Cookery, Wu Youzhishu couldn't help but be silent for a moment, then said with a dark face:
"But how can I be sure you will let him go?"
"This is a problem..."
After frowning and thinking for a while, Leon seemed to suddenly think of something and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Wait a minute!"
Under Wu Youzhishu's puzzled gaze, Leon searched through the long string of True Gods in his hand, took True God No. 19 off the rope, then pinched the terrified True God No. 19's neck and shouted to the pitch-black crow circling above:
"It just so happens that the God of Contract and Faith is right here! As long as you agree, we can sign the contract through him right away!"
"..."
Sign a shit! Do you think I'm stupid?
“No!” Looking at the God of Contract and Faith, who was being held in Leon’s hand like a dead dog, with his soul shaking like a sieve, Wu Youzhishu gritted his teeth and bargained loudly:
"He has been captured by you, and his body has been destroyed, leaving only his soul. Now even if you take the initiative to step into his power, he may not be able to restrain you!
If you really want me to come down, you must be guaranteed by the Black Cat who inherited the position of the Great Wizard King, and let her swear to the Heart of the Great Court! Also, it is not enough to just release one third!"
After looking at the long list of true gods in Leon's hand, Wu Youzhishu couldn't help but said coldly:
"God of Food! I can give you a chance to catch me, but in exchange, you have to let go of two-thirds of the true gods! And you have to release their souls the moment I come down!"
"Two-thirds is too much. Let's give up half at most. No more than that."
"No, it must be two-thirds. Not a single one of the twenty-six true gods can be missing!"
"Then get out of here!"
Upon hearing this, Lyon sneered, and then used the Archer Secret Technique - Lyon Limited Edition to strengthen the [Cutting Silver Dagger], temporarily contaminating it into a three-headed black dog, and driving the three heads of the black dog to hold the heads of the three true gods in their mouths.
"Crack!"
Along with the sound of sharp teeth cutting off souls and the sharp screams of the three true gods, three souls strung together on the long rope were instantly reduced to zero, leaving only thirty-six of the thirty-nine captured true gods.
"you?!!!"
"My conditions remain the same. I will let half of them go if you come down."
After selecting three heads from the screaming True Gods that were most likely not to affect the operation of the present world, and ordering the three black dogs to hold them in their mouths, Leon said calmly:
"But every time you reject me, there will be three fewer true gods on the rope. Now it is half of the thirty-six true gods, and later it may be half of the thirty-three true gods, and then it may be half of the thirty true gods."
"You... you lunatic! You shouldn't make such conditions! You should at least..."
"Wrong answer."
"Wait! Don't!"
Amid Wu Youzhishu's shocked and angry shouts, the three-headed black dog that was the incarnation of the Silver Dagger bit down again. The souls of the three true gods were instantly broken in two, and disappeared in the dog's mouth with screams.
"You're halfway to thirty-three now, so do you want to continue to reject my proposal, or do you want to..."
"Damn it! I promised! I promised! You... stop it!"
"Crack!"
"Asshole!!!"
Seeing the three-headed black dog suddenly open its mouth and swallow another true god, Wuyouzhishu in the sky couldn't help but get furious.
"I already agreed! Why are you still doing it?"
"Because thirty-three is an odd number and cannot be divided by two."
After answering the questions as if it was a matter of course, Leon reached out and touched the strung true god souls one by one, then reached out and grabbed them and adjusted the position, stringing the true gods that helped maintain the rules of the world in the front half, and the true gods that didn't matter if they were eaten in the back half.
Then, amid the terrified looks of the two groups of true gods, Leon first broke the rope that strung the true gods in the middle, then after thinking for a while, he flipped over the front half, pulled out True God No. 7 whose soul was marked, and put it on the edible back half, then shook the front half of the rope towards his head.
"Here, these can be released. As long as you come down, I will release them immediately."
"..."
Seeing that there was one less true God than agreed, Wuyouzhishu, hovering in the sky, almost gnashed his teeth to pieces.
However, through the transaction just now, he already understood Leon's style. He knew that if he argued with reason, the God of Food would only use the excuse of balancing the numbers to eat a few more True Gods. Therefore, he had to pretend that he saw nothing, ignored the desperate shouts of True God No. 7, and nodded silently:
"Okay! Make her swear!"
