Chapter 30 Next Meal, Preliminary(2/3)
He knew very well how important it would be if Jason could really discover the 'traitor' in advance.
After all, who can be sure that these exposed ‘traitors’ are all?
"He showed his murderous intent towards me."
Jason said half-truthfully.
He can't say that I smell 'food' on him, right?
"Can you identify the others?"
Cortana asked.
"Not guaranteed."
Jason told the truth.
"Is that so?"
Disappointment appeared on Cortana's face, but immediately, the lady said seriously: "Jason, I will help you apply for merit, including discovering the traitor this time."
The resolute Cortana took action as soon as she finished speaking.
She opened the microcomputer she carried with her and started a series of operations.
At this time, Vince, who finally accepted the fact, walked up to Jason.
"Sorry, Sir Jason."
"It was just my impulse."
"I am willing to compensate you."
The young knight said with a look of shame.
Given the education Vince had received, he simply could not accept that he pointed a sword at an innocent person.
Especially when this innocent person is uncovering a conspiracy.
Jason didn't care at all. He never found the slightest bit of malice in this young knight. Therefore, he raised his hand and pointed at the bodies of the 'Scout' and 'Assaulter'.
"Let's keep trading."
Jason said this.
The young knight was stunned for a moment, and then made a knightly salute to Jason.
"Your moral character is as admirable as your strength."
As the young knight spoke, he took off a short sword from the belt buckle at his waist.
The dagger was wrapped in a leather bag. When Vince opened the leather buckle, a unique aroma of 'food' began to appear.
Jason twitched his nose and glanced at his skin.
Magic equipment and props are not eternal.
They can also be damaged.
Even some props are quite fragile.
Therefore, more careful preservation methods are needed.
The skin bag in front of me is obviously one of them.
"Cling wrap?"
Jason thought silently.
"This is a short sword with the power of 'fire', which can last for 30 minutes."
"I hope to use it in exchange for the bodies of those 'scouts'."
"The bodies of 'Assaulters' are very rare, and I don't have enough items to exchange for them."
The young knight said very honestly.
Such honesty also made Jason have no choice to bargain.
"make a deal."
Jason said.
The next moment, the young knight handed the dagger and its leather pouch to Jason.
"Thank you for your generosity."
Saying these words, the young knight began to contact the people in the "Unyielding Bronze".
After a while, two large refrigeration trucks arrived.
When all the bodies of the 'Scouters' were put into one of them, the young knight pointed to the remaining one and said to Jason: "You can store the bodies of the 'Raiders' in this car, please don't refuse.
, this is just a trivial gift between friends."
"Hope to see you again."
Before Jason could speak, the young knight strode away following the refrigerated truck.
"Vince is a nice young man."
Delbon came over and said.
"Um."
Jason didn't deny it.
Delbon showed an apologetic expression.
"Sorry, I didn't expect such a thing to happen. I was originally going to let Vince exchange the bodies of the 'scouts' and let Larson exchange the bodies of the 'raiders'."
"Now I can help you contact several of your Excellencies again."
Delbon looked at Jason questioningly.
"Sorry to trouble you."
Jason's answer made the member of the 'Clock Tower' stationed in the 'Extraterrestrial Investigation Bureau' relax slightly.
He didn't want to leave a bad impression on an ancient species.
Moreover, this is when this ancient species has already shown its strength and possesses some special abilities.
Delbon would not believe that Jason only relied on murderous intent to judge that Larson was a traitor.
This is what his soul told him.
Therefore, Jason must have other ways of identifying traitors.
It's just that this matter is too important to disclose.
or……
For sale?
Delbon prefers the latter.
‘Mysterious people’ are not ascetics, nor are they philanthropists.
They also need various resources and have various needs.
Using 'knowledge' in exchange is simply a matter of course on the 'mysterious side'.
Similarly, 'knowledge is expensive and priceless' is also the consensus of the 'mysterious side'.
"Do you need an 'agent'?"
Delbon lowered his voice and said.
As if he was afraid that Jason would misunderstand, after the words fell, Delbon immediately added: "Don't worry, I will not be a middleman and I will not earn the price difference. I guarantee integrity."
"What are you talking about?"
With doubts, Jason asked.
Faced with such rhetorical questions, Delbon nodded repeatedly.
"clear!"
"I understand everything!"
After Delbon finished speaking softly, he walked aside and started writing.
Initial secrecy?
Let a few people know about it first, and then reveal it through these people to form the first "interest chain". Then, use this "interest chain" to continuously build momentum and strive to sell at a high price!
As expected of an ancient species, he actually thought of these things in the first place.
Sure enough, I am still too young!
Need to study hard!
With these thoughts swirling in his heart, Delbon wrote faster.
