Chapter 201 Negotiations with Dark Fang (2/2)

There were only two possibilities to this situation. First, either the parliament was too incompetent, which would only increase the burden on the players, or they had purposely used up their strength just to favor the future leader.

If it was the former, it wouldn't be that bad, but if it was the latter, then it was unforgivable.

In other words — the parliament must die.

So, with regards to Shawn's request, Rhode approved it. He was even grateful for Shawn's warning, Although Rhode was already prepared for the Country of Light, if someone were to provide additional information about his enemies, that would be better than wading through the river and groping at stones all by himself, wasn't it?

”I understand what you meant now.”

Rhode's expression remained the same despite agreeing with Shawn. After all, the other party was requesting for help, and if he seemed to be overly passionate, he might be taken advantage of next time. To Rhode, this was a mission. And since it was a mission, he should squeeze every single drop out of it, which suited his identity.

Rhode's stance on the matter caught the attention of Shawn. Frankly, ever since the two of them met, Shawn felt that this young man was becoming increasingly mysterious. At the Mercenary Association meeting, Rhode displayed the strategic side of him. However, Shawn was very clear that this young man was a steadfast man under the veil of arrogance. Now it seemed that his steadiness had gone a step further beyond Shawn's initial judgment. Even so, Rhode wasn't the least bit worried, and not a sign of worry was on his face. As a killer, Shawn was an expert in examining the expressions of people, so he could verify that when he mentioned the Country of Light, Rhode's calmness wasn't fake and was genuine.

Of course, the killer didn't know that Rhode had already wiped out the whole of Country of Light back in the game. So, naturally, Rhode didn't experience much shock when mentioned about these things.

Shawn was certain of what Rhode was thinking, so he didn't hesitate to extend his arm. In a flash, a black dagger appeared on his palm.

”Mr. Rhode, this is my 'Black Ivory'.” Shawn said as he placed the dagger on the table, ”It served me for many years and has always been a deadly weapon. I'll give it to you now as a deposit… and furthermore, I guarantee that in the future, if you require intelligence reports, we the 'Dark Fang,' will provide this service to you for free.”

Rhode nodded.

Although Dark Fang was just a mercenary group, they seem to resemble a hitman organization. The fact that they could gather secret intel from the Country of Light proved their strength in this field. If Rhode could acquire their help, then it would naturally be an advantage for the Starlight guild in the future.

However, Rhode's ambition didn't stop here. But he knew that some things shouldn't be brought to light now.

”I hope we will have a pleasant cooperation.”

Rhode said as he extended his right arm.

Shawn glanced at Rhode's outstretched arm and calmly shook on it.

”Yes… of course. Pleasant cooperation.”
