The God of the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 335 - Zhuge Liang's Real Purpose
When Lin Xiaodao's question was asked, Shu Qi's face became extremely ugly for a moment, but then he spoke to Lin Xiaodao with a face full of doubts.
"Gunpowder? Is the Lord of Shenhou making fun of us? How can there be such a thing as gunpowder in this game!"
"You think I'm joking?" Lin Xiaodao's grin widened.
"Could it be that you actually didn't know that gunpowder had already appeared above the ring I was in during the first round?"
At this moment, Shu Qi's expression finally couldn't hold back, modern people are too familiar with such things as gunpowder, and Lin Xiaodie itself attracted a lot of attention, plus the smoke and dust that was obviously produced by gunpowder, in such a situation there are people who would actually say they didn't know there was gunpowder in this game.
Lin Xiaodao closed his mouth to hide his fangs, he quietly looked at Shu Qi and then at the rest of the people.
"I know that you guys are unwilling or unable to tell me the truth for some reason, it doesn't matter, I can forgive you all and understand, after all, this matter may concern your personal interests, right?"
Several people nodded subconsciously and then quickly shook their heads, but their appearance was tantamount to telling Lin Xiaodie the answer.
Seeing them like this, Lin Xiaodie actually understood, after all, this matter concerned their interests, so if Lin Xiaodie wanted to get this information from them, he had to pay a certain amount of interest first.
"I know what you want, and I'm sure you know the last thing I need here is that kind of thing, but I hope that the information you're telling me is proportional to what I'm paying for it, otherwise, you might as well try it?"
What's the last thing the city needs? Everyone knows that the last thing the City of God is short of is money!
If someone asks who is the richest person in the game world, I'm sure everyone will answer that it's Jinho City, it's Lin Xiaodao!
No one knows where Lin Xiaodao's money comes from, and no one is going to believe that the so-called Treasure Bowl he posted last time is real, but it doesn't matter, for countless players, how to get more money from Lin Xiaodao is the most important thing!
Shu Qi is not stupid, how could a lord level figure be stupid? So he acted out a scene called "The Thief in the Ear" with extremely poor acting skills.
The other lords soon found out about this, so they also decided to join in the play directed by Shu Qi.
As for what Lin Xiaodie wanted to know, it wasn't really a secret to them at all, and the reason why Lin Xiaodie didn't know about it was more because someone behind the scenes didn't want Lin Xiaodie to know about it, and this so-called person behind the scenes was the so-called secret that Lin Xiaodie really wanted to know about!
"Ten thousand taels of gold, plus your generals and pawns in the ring, is that enough?"
This is 10,000,000 taels of gold, that's 10,000,000,000. Using 10,000,000 to buy a piece of news should satisfy anyone, not to mention Lin Xiaodagger's willingness to let go of those generals and pawns who were almost certain to die in the arena!
Shu Qi agreed to Lin Xiaodao's conditions almost instantly, after all, Lin Xiaodao was giving too much!
With a whisper, Lin Xiaodao learned the news he wanted to know.
Lin Xiaodie was surprised because the person Shu Qi told him was not the one he guessed, and Lin Xiaodie didn't even know when he had offended them!
"Advance layout? Or is it just pure profit?" Lin Xiaodao didn't know the answer, but he believed that someone would know the answer.
"Brother Shu Qi has already traded the information he knows for the benefits he wants, so, what information can you give me?"
The identity of the mastermind behind the scenes is already known to Lin Xiaodao, but what the mastermind is doing is still unknown to him, so this question will need to be answered by the remaining ones!
Shall we? Several people actually had the answer in their minds, and even the first person to come forward had appeared, so what was there to hesitate about?
The reason why the person behind the scenes is targeting Shenhou City they actually don't know, but that doesn't mean they don't have certain information in their hands that is relevant and happens to be what Lin Xiaodie wants to know, and as to whether this information will be repeated, it depends on who is faster!
A series of crawling operations, several people scrambled to Lin Xiaodao's side you said one by one to report to Lin Xiaodao the information they knew about the people behind the curtain, and even because they were afraid of their information in advance of being told by others, these people almost made a move!
Fortunately, the ending was satisfactory for everyone, Lin Xiaodao got the information he wanted, and the others got the money they wanted, and then these people simply approached Zhuge Liang and asked him to withdraw from the competition, and then they left the place under the puzzled and despised eyes of countless people.
Lin Xiaodie's ring actually ended in a great success once again, which made Zhuge Liang more and more curious about Lin Xiaodie.
Zhuge Liang didn't need to hold this kind of event at all, because a top strategist like him, if he wanted to find a suitable lord, would have his own way to make certain necessary judgments on those people, but Zhuge Liang didn't do that, he just released a message, recruited people and then used a similar way of raising parasites to choose a lord!
Is it possible to choose the right lord in this way? No one knows.
But the players were actually weakened in some way, either by losing powerful generals or by losing pawns of higher rank.
Was this a deliberate act by Zhuge Liang? No one knows, and neither does Lin Xiaodao, but he does know that the fact that the ring he was in twice without much loss of personnel has definitely been fondly remembered by Zhuge Liang!
The second phase of the "Long Zhong Pair" trial was a little troublesome for the people of Shenyang, but these troubles disappeared with the cooperation of the top generals in Shenyang.
And because of Lin Xiaodao's tempting interest, he was the first finalist to decide the winner!
Do you want to watch other players play against each other? Lin Xiaodagger felt it was completely unnecessary.
After two trials, the first one over individual force, the second one over group force, and after two consecutive force competitions, Lin Xiaodao didn't believe that this third one would still be a force competition!
So it doesn't really matter whether you watch them fight or not, what matters is what Zhuge Liang really wants to do, and what matters is what kind of lord Zhuge Liang really wants to choose!
This time, Zhuge Liang, who had no excuse to silence Lin Xiaodao, actually had a pleasant conversation with Lin Xiaodao.
