Chapter 312 Recruitment and Entrustment
"ah!!!"
Shui Xiu, who was still looking proud and kept ordering the Kwai Shui elves to attack, suddenly screamed in pain, as if he had been in severe pain, and instantly retreated from the psychic state.
The flesh and blood rebuilt on her cheek.
Plop!
Shuixiu fell heavily to the ground, veins popped out on her forehead, black blood oozed from her seven orifices, she covered her head and screamed loudly.
At this moment, Han Ning felt that the element was back.
The black sunflower water spirit turned into water mist and exploded, casting a black rain in the sky.
"That's enough, let's stop this fight." A gentle voice echoed across the field.
An old ape whose hair looked like blue waves stretched out his hand and pushed.
A dozen long sharp needles were intercepted in front of a thin wave of water, emitting a harsh buzz.
Zizzi~
The sound waves full of magic are like magic sounds that penetrate the ears, penetrating everyone's eardrums and reaching deep into the spirit.
The water waves condensed by the old ape began to shake violently, showing a tendency of cracking.
It kept retreating, its powerful ape arms shaking violently.
Dense golden needle-like wounds suddenly appeared on the thick arms covered with blue hair.
"Haha, Miss Shui Rui, it is indeed you."
Han Ning glanced at Shui Rui, who was standing behind the old ape. He kept a kind smile on his lips, but the expression between his eyebrows became calmer.
"Hey... little brother Han Ning, it's a long story. Could you please signal it to stop attacking?"
Shui Rui saw that her own soul beast could not even resist the attack of a mere lord-level soul beast. She felt a little confused on her face and transmitted a spiritual message that no one else could hear.
"Sorry... with its current ability... it is currently unable to control the free movement of this soul skill." Han Ning shook his head helplessly.
He was not lying about this. The "Zangfeng" spiritual model was a very offensive divine model he selected from the Four Symbols Meditation Method. Yinyi had only been thinking about it for a few days and had only scratched the surface of it. , like a child wielding a machete, so tight and laborious.
Shui Rui had no choice but to signal the old ape to use more powerful force.
"Whoa!"
Facing the menacing flying needle, the old ape shouted suddenly, the long hair on his arms shook violently like water waves, the sound of the surging tide echoed, and the turbulent blue-black tide spurted from the pores, forming a huge fist, flying in the air. The flying needle attached to the fist surface exploded.
In this way, the surrounding sharks could clearly see how difficult it was for the old ape, as a monarch soul beast, to resist the attack of the lord soul beast.
This made Shui Rui's pretty face even more embarrassing.
She walked up to Han Ning in a few steps, showed a gentle smile, and said softly: "Brother Han Ning, for my sake, this battle should be temporarily suspended. I apologize to you on Shuiyun's behalf. You are listening today. All the expenses in the Chao Pavilion, as well as the treatment costs for the injured soul beasts, will be paid by me. How about that?"
Before Han Ning could speak, Lin Tianhe beside him couldn't help it: "Miss Shui Rui, it's not that we are unreasonable, doesn't the rule say that the use of spiritual magic is not allowed? Why does this woman explode when she comes up? It's completely Ignore the rules set by Tingchao Pavilion, right?”
"This... Strictly speaking, what Shui Yun performed just now is not a spiritual magic. The 'Elemental Vacuum' is a display of the elemental talents of the Wuling Tribe. It consumes the spiritual energy stored in the body..." Shui Rui smiled apologetically.
"Nonsense... We don't know the situation of the Wu Ling Tribe. Teachers Seg and Holm both said that elemental vacuum is obviously the spiritual magic of the Wu Ling Tribe..." Lin Tianhe muttered to Han Ning with his mental power. , but did not continue to refute.
What he just said just showed his dissatisfaction to Shui Rui.
"This is not the place to talk... How about we change places and talk in detail? Don't you want to know why I specially arranged this battle?" Shui Rui stared at Han Ning.
In fact, Han Ning was very curious about why the other party specifically targeted his group. Seeing Shui Rui's serious gaze, he nodded: "Okay."
When Shui Rui saw that they had no objection, the smile on her face became brighter and she leaned over to make a gesture of invitation.
In a luxurious box on the sixth floor of Tingchao.
When Han Ning and others entered the box, they found that a young woman with an exquisite face, probably in her 28s, 29s, or early 30s, wearing a white gauze skirt of the same style as Shui Rui, was already sitting here.
Compared to Shui Rui, this person's figure is hotter.
This made Han Ning and Lin Tianhe even more confused as to what Shui Rui's intentions were in arranging a hot woman here.
"Let me introduce, this is my sister, Shuili..."
"Hello, everyone." The young woman stood up and saluted everyone one by one.
"you are very welcome."
Lin Tianhe waved his hands repeatedly, sat down on the comfortable soft chair with a smile, and sighed,
"Thanks to Han Ning, this is the first time for a country bumpkin like me to come to the private room of Tingchao Pavilion."
This guy...is really a familiar person.
Shui Jin, who was following behind, and Shui Yun, whose face was covered with healing water plants, had this idea in their minds at the same time.
"Haha, if brother Tianhe likes to eat seafood, you can come to me and Tingchao Pavilion will arrange it at any time." Shui Rui blinked and personally opened the special-shaped soft chair for Han Ning.
"You must have tasted Tingchao Pavilion's dishes. Do they suit your taste?"
"It's okay...it's quite unique."
“…”
After all, they weren't very familiar with each other. The two of them chatted about the current situation for a while, but the topic gradually disappeared. Only Shui Rui, who was good at people affairs, kept chatting awkwardly.
"So, Miss Shui Rui, just tell me what's going on." Han Ning stopped Shui Rui's complimentary smile and said with a smile.
"Hey, this is really a long story..." Shui Rui let out a long sigh, no longer hiding anything, and told the relevant situation.
"Do any of you know about the Deep Sea Clan?"
"Deep Sea Clan? You know something about it, but what does this have to do with the Deep Sea Clan?" Han Ning became even more puzzled.
"..."
It turns out that the Samekai Alliance is not as peaceful as it seems.
Shui Rui is engaged in the spiritual material trading business in the Shark Sea Alliance. This business involves purchasing soul beast materials of varying values from foreign races outside the Shark Sea Alliance, and then transporting, processing, and selling them internally.
Or use soul beast materials that have been processed internally and transport them to foreign territories for sale.
If you want to do this business, you won't be able to do it without a strong background. Shui Rui usually needs to spend a lot of money to manage relationships.
"Although I am one of the 36 elders of the Shark Sea Alliance, my status in the alliance can only be ranked below 30 at most...and I am not a pure Shark clan, but just a member of the Huanhai clan affiliated with the Shark clan. , the right to speak in the Shark Sea Alliance is even lower," Shui Rui said in a sad tone.
And what she asked for happened here.
Originally, Shui Rui had already established a good relationship with one of the top 10 elders in the Sharkai Alliance, and the two parties had agreed that her ethnic group would be able to obtain the right to acquire materials from a certain alien territory in the next three years.
Unexpectedly, another elder from the Sharkai Alliance who was engaged in the same business used some means to cut off her quota.
The agreed-upon matter was suddenly cancelled, and Shui Rui was depressed and couldn't sleep for a few days. While she used her connections to negotiate with other senior leaders of the Sharkai Alliance, the forces in the alliance among the ethnic group also began to operate.
The final result of the discussion was that both sides took a step back and decided to use a soul beast battle to decide who would take the spot.
Shui Rui is just a low-ranking elder. She can't hire a powerful beast master, so she can only keep looking for connections to find cost-effective beast masters that meet her requirements.
"That's the thing. The forces behind the other party are stronger than mine, and they may also involve the Deep Sea Clan. It's my limit to be able to get a chance to fight fairly..." Shui Rui took a sip of tea, her expression extremely depressed.
Anyone who encounters a situation where the duck suddenly flies away from their mouth will be depressed.
After hearing this, Han Ning showed an interested expression and continued to ask: "Tell me about the rules, and aren't we going to have a fight? Why would you target me when you don't know my strength?"
"Let me answer the latter question first." Shui Rui personally refilled Han Ning's "tea" and said with a wry smile, "Among your companions, are there two high-level wizards, right? During the war between the wizards and the Arataks, In recent years, when the war has reached its peak, high-level wizards have rarely appeared in places other than the battlefield..."
"The Witch Spirit Clan is different from a small ethnic group like ours. When each Witch Spirit Clan reaches adulthood, nearly 60% of the clan members will become true beast masters, and the high-level Witch Spirit Clan are the nobles of the Witch Spirit Clan. They can Going together with them, your strength cannot be underestimated, so... I have thought of testing your strength."
"What's more, the high-level wizard spirit appears in the Shark Sea Alliance. Who knows if it's for war."
"As for the rules."
"We stipulate that each side sends 3 beast masters, each of whom can only fight 1 soul beast, and their strength is limited to the lord level. It will not be considered a failure until the last soul beast of one side completely loses its fighting ability."
"Fortunately, I am smart enough to limit the strength of the soul beasts. If they send soul beasts above the monarch level, I will simply surrender." Shui Rui seemed to have found the target of the prosecution and said a lot of words in one breath.
"Lord? How much is the reward? How many people have you found now?"
When Han Ning heard about the lord, his interest increased a bit.
"Currently, there are only two of you, and one person is still missing. Little brother, do you have any suitable candidates?"
"The right candidate..." Han Ning turned around and looked at Lin Tianhe, "Brother, are you interested?"
Han Ning didn't want to participate in a battle with little profit, but if the other party paid, and he was short of money now, it would be different.
"Me...if the opponent's level is similar to that of Shui Yun, I can give it a try, provided that I can use spiritual magic." Lin Tianhe was a little unconfident.
"You guys take a look at this first." Shui Rui gestured to her sister.
The young woman understood, picked up a thin wooden box from the seat next to her, opened it and pushed it in front of several people.
Inside the wooden box, which is 30 centimeters long and nearly one meter wide, five things with different shapes lie quietly.
"Blue Moon Grass, Void Spirit Stone, Geomagnetic Crystal, Monarch Soul Crystal..."
Han Ning glanced at it, and information about several materials was instantly refreshed on the panel.
The value of these things is high or low, and they are extremely precious for Lord-level soul beasts. However, at the Sovereign level, except for the Sovereign Crystal, the effects of these materials become relatively useless.
Such high-quality geomagnetic crystals are very useful for egg cakes. This commission can be received one after another...
Considering that Omelette is not far away from breakthrough evolution, not to mention the rewards such as the geomagnetic crystal, establishing a relationship with an elder of the alien alliance will also be helpful for collecting various materials in the future.
"This is just a gift for meeting... everyone has one. In addition, I can give you your fire dragon heart for free, and I will do my best to get you the divine seed of the Red Lotus Mountain Beast!" Shui Rui gritted his teeth.
This level of material is extremely precious even in the eyes of an elder.
"If Brother Tianhe can show enough strength to defeat Shui Yun, I will also give you a generous gift!"
"Also... Shui Li will accompany you as a guide for a few days. During this time, she will meet all your needs." At the end, Shui Rui's cheeks flushed.
The young woman beside him lowered her head and did not speak.
"It feels like a business companionship. I was wondering why you are wearing so revealing..." Lin Tianhe bared his teeth and couldn't help but send a private message to Han Ning.
"I have a question. Will helping you fight cause the other party to retaliate? I heard you say that the other party has a deep-sea background. Aren't you and the deep-sea people hostile?" Han Ning did not agree immediately, but continued to ask.
"The Deep Sea Tribe is also divided into several factions. We are indeed hostile to one of the tribes, but we maintain relatively friendly relations with the vast majority of Deep Sea people. Moreover, they occupy almost the entire Tianmo Sea. The small fights within our Jiaohai Alliance will not attract their attention."
"These are only part of the rewards. If the matter is successful, each of you can get a copy of the same materials, and I will also give you other materials." Shui Rui laughed and emphasized again, with a bit of confidence in his words.
"Haha, Miss Shui Rui is polite. Let's talk about the specific strength of the opponent first. When will the battle start?" Han Ning was also very satisfied with the reward, but his face looked calm.
"The one I'm fighting with is Sha Lei, one of the elders of the Jiaohai Alliance and the deputy chief of the Liusha tribe. From what I've heard, they have found a Liusha beastmaster with a spiritual power of level 3 and a wind elemental spirit of the upper lord level."
"And a merman beastmaster with a spiritual power of level 3 and a soul beast of the B-level Storm Eagle."
"As for the third one, I don't know yet."
Shui Rui said, and then looked at Han Ning with a smile and asked,
"Brother Han Ning, you asked so many details, are you ready to accept your sister's commission?"
"I need some time to think about it and give you an answer tomorrow." After thinking for a while, Han Ning felt that he could take on the commission, but for safety reasons, he did not reply immediately and prepared to go back to ask for other people's opinions.
