They couldn't raise their price anymore. Otherwise, they would look like fools who bought a piece of information with ridiculously high price.
Tyrant Guild and Rosette Guild did not have much interaction. Their strengths were not much different. So, the two guilds would only cause unnecessary destruction to both sides if they fought.
Since they could not get rid their competitors, they had to solve the source of the problem.
Knight Tyrant's gaze was cold, he directly said, "Little brother, having more friends means more options. Accept my conditions and you won't suffer any losses. In the future, I'll protect you in New World so that you won't be killed by players from other guilds."
"Quite being a solo player! Otherwise, you will be in big trouble if you offend other guilds. What say you?"
This was already a direct threat. Of course, Su Jin did not take back his offer.
If Su Jin agreed, he would obtain 3,000 gold coins, which was 300,000 real money. If he did not agree, he would be hunted down by Tyrant Guild. He would also incur the hatred of other guilds. In the future, no guild would want him.
If the information he had was not particularly important, he would have no problem to tell them. After all, he could not go against money.
However, information could be verified. It would be difficult to fool them with false information. Even if Su Jin managed to fool them now, he still couldn't escape forever. If they found out the information was wrong, they would still come after him. If he revealed the truth, he would lose a hidden quest, it was simply unacceptable.
He might as well make enemies right now. With the information he had, why did he had to be afraid of Tyrant Guild?
"Heavenly Cloud, don't let them scare you. The sisters of Rosette Guild will protect you in the future. Don't worry." Scarlet Rose added.
Although she had a good attitude, she was also trying to find out more about the hidden information.
Moreover, these words were also a test. If Su Jin expressed that he wanted to join Tyrant Guild, it meant that he was afraid of Tyrant Guild. If Scarlet Rose used this as a threat against him, he could only surrender. Then, the Rose Guild could obtain the greatest benefit.
At this moment, the other players also noticed their interaction. They stood in the distance and watched, discussing in low voices.
"That brother, he's a solo player, but he dares to go against those large guilds. Impressive."
"Impressive my ass. After this, you'll discover that he doesn't dare to leave the novice village."
"What good would it do to offend those big forces? If I had to say it, I'd just sell the information. What's the point of hiding it?"
"That's right. Who would dare to stand up for him in the future?"
"[ Tyrant Guild ] is the first large-scale guild to take over the place. Their guild leader is very brutal. It's not worth it to go against him."
The discussions of the surrounding players couldn't reach Su Jin's side, so the three of them didn't care.
Tyrant Guild and Rosette Guild both stated their conditions, waiting for Su Jin to make a decision.
Su Jin looked left and right before saying, "I'll take 200 wild boar tusks and 20 silver coins. I won't accept anything more than that. Otherwise, I could just go farm myself."
"If Rosette Guild is willing to trade, we can work together in the future."
Knight Tyrant and Scarlet Rose's expressions changed, and they were both unhappy.
Did this mean that they could only make a trade with Heavenly Cloud and not getting any information?
Scarlet Rose pondered in her heart. This deal had failed, and she hadn't received any information, so it was a waste of her time.
The only thing that she had gained was Heavenly Cloud's friendship. Or maybe, she had bested Tyrant Guild in some way.
This was because Heavenly Cloud had stated that he could cooperate with Rosette Guild in the future, but he hadn't mentioned Tyrant Guild. The difference was obvious. It was better to wait and see. It wasn't worth offending Tyrant Guild because of a solo player.
A smile appeared on Scarlet Rose's face. "Heavenly Cloud, it seems that you still have a good eye. If you can't survive in the future, come to my guild. I will still protect you."
"Save your silver coins. These 200 wild boar tusks will be my first gift to you."
After saying this, she took out 200 wild boars to trade.
It was free. If Su Jin didn't take it, it would be a waste.
Su Jin didn't stand on ceremony with her and directly took it. He smiled and said, "My taste is indeed good, but I don't need your protection. You guys are very pleasing to the eye."
"Of course, yours are bigger, so it should be very comfortable."
"You..."
A hint of anger appeared on Scarlet Rose's white face, but it didn't seem like she was angry at all. Instead, it seemed like she was acting coquettishly, which was exceptionally cute.
Knight Tyrant was not happy.
He had come all the way to the novice village, but he didn't get anything. He glared at Su Jin and say coldly, "Very good, Heavenly Cloud. I'll remember you. I hope that you won't run into me in the wild next time."
Su Jin glanced at Knight Tyrant and was too lazy to reply.
With the 200 wild boar fangs from Scarlet Rose, he could activate the hidden quest now. In the future, his development speed would become faster until he surpassed everyone else. It would not problem for him to fight against 100 people by himself.
"Heavenly Cloud, although your quality is relatively low, I've already said it. I won't go back on my words. If you come and join me, I'll definitely protect you. You can also fight monsters and level up with our guild's beautiful players."
Scarlet Rose appeared once again to gain a sense of presence.
The surrounding players were filled with envy.
Everybody knew that Scarlet Rose's guild members were all beautiful women. After fighting monsters with those beautiful ladies for a long time, they might be able to meet up in real life and develop a relationship.
"I'm sorry, I don't have any intentions of asking a woman to protect me. If you want to ask me out, I can consider it." Su Jin replied with a smile.
How could Su Jin not understand this woman's thoughts?
The so-called protection definitely had a price. Otherwise, she wouldn't give him such a good offer
"Ptui, who wants to ask you out? You're too direct. You definitely won't be able to find a girlfriend."
Scarlet Rose retorted before leading her people into the novice village.
Seeing this, Su Jin no longer hesitated and headed to the novice village to look for the village chief.
The village chief was still standing at the same spot.
Su Jin came to the village chief and didn't say anything else. He directly took out the materials that needed to trigger the hidden mission from the mission space. Then, he handed them to the village chief.
Information regarding the completion of a mission was something that others couldn't see. Only the person involved was clear about it.
As an NPC, the village chief had a set of words designed by the game. Before he could speak, he saw Su Jin's materials, his face was filled with shock.
"You killed so many magical beasts. These magical beasts have always wanted to invade the village. Thank you so much."
"I've never seen an adventurer as powerful as you. Perhaps you have the ability to obtain the inheritance left behind by that expert. This is an opportunity."
"Adventurer, in the north of our village, there is a cave. Inside the cave, there is a natural stone groove. There is a spring filled with divinity in it. If you can retrieve it, I will tell you the method to obtain that person's inheritance."
"Ding!"
"Do you accept the Hidden Mission: [ Proof of strength ] ?"
"I accept." Su Jin said without hesitation.
