Chapter 10: Do Not Underestimate Newcomers

However, this money was never intended to be taken away by anyone

The leader has issued an order: engage with the surveillance target before dawn, using diplomacy before force

Not long after the short and poor president left, Wang Qi also welcomed a visitor

Enough, enough! The beauty is truly a goddess who can change lives and alter my destiny!" Wang Qi cheerfully accepted the money and handed over the information card

This is the difficulty of making a decision; without sufficient information as a basis, it is impossible to assume a certain outcome. The ability to recognize the uncertainty in the judgment of the outcome is also a testament to your leader's wisdom. However, while this tactic is indeed clever, I believe there are still ways to counter it

As the window opened, she flew in like a specter, drawing forth a pitch-black, gleaming short sword, and like a shooting star, pounced onto the bed, the sharp blade mercilessly piercing into the bulging bedding

The information card from the members of the Tiger Courage Mercenary Corps that you sell to us will result in profits for you. We will not increase the price for the destruction of the Empire; we will only add to it.

Is there anything else?

At the same time, among the second group of visitors to the Empire of Destruction, there was one person who, after receiving the information card and getting up to leave, was timidly called back by the short and impoverished president, saying, "Wait, wait a moment... please wait a moment."

"Report to the Commander, the Tiger Courage Regiment has left the city overnight"

Outside the inn, one can see the dimly lit alleyway at the window of Wang Qi's room, where a woman, concealed beneath a dark green cloak, quietly watches like a stone.

The commander of the Tiger Courage Brigade, however, sternly pressed on, saying: "What about Wang Qi's suggestion? Hurry up and tell me the situation"

50,000 Imperial Coins in destruction?" Wang Qiqing smiled with surprise after counting.

That sense of force is certainly not that of piercing a living human being

The short, unattractive, and poor man anxiously grabbed his hair, distressed, and exclaimed to hetushu.com: "Three possibilities! So annoying! If only I could be sure that all the cards you have are fake!"

Do you think those who destroy empires will understand your thoughts?" Wang Qi's retort made the short, poor vice president, who had stood up, sit back down with a bitter smile. For a moment, he felt somewhat dejected and sighed repeatedly. After being frustrated for a while, he suddenly stood up again and said: "I have to go! If I stay here too long, it will make you...

This is not good news

How much can one earn as a mercenary in the home star system for a year? The average reported income is 50,000.

Their intentions were clear, their words direct, and in the end, they decisively took out a heavy bag of money.

Four women in black cloaks stood in a line behind the person who had brushed past Wang Qicuo a few days ago in a dimly lit alley

The woman from the Three-Eyed Clan protested unwillingly, saying: "If we leave the city now, we will definitely face an attack! How can the leader change the decision on a whim because of a young brat's words?"

The woman from the surveillance empire stepped out of the dim alley after receiving her orders. The light in Wang Qike's room was still on. She secretly scoffed, imagining that at this moment he was foolishly counting his vast fortune over and over, consumed by restless fantasies of how to spend that money

As soon as the door closed, the smile on Wang Qi's face vanished. He quickly walked to the window, watching the woman enter the dimly lit corridor, and then drew the curtains, leaving a small gap.

The words 'Nightmare Alarak Incident' caused the members of the Tiger Courage Mercenary Corps to change their expressions slightly, and the three-eyed woman no longer had any objections.

These individuals, whether male or female, all conceal themselves beneath cloaks

Was Wang Qi from Guyong Village killed or captured alive

When the words of these visitors were finished, a cold weapon was heavily dropped beside the money bag at https://mhetushucomcom

"Aren't you afraid..." Before the words of the short, poor, and unattractive could be finished, Wang Qi smiled and interrupted, saying: "In fact, the possibility that they are all fake cards is the highest. After all, this is a life-or-death level mission, and both the Free Union and Tiger Courage cannot afford to fail. It is unlikely that the hope of success would be placed on us inexperienced newcomers who have just graduated."

The woman took the card, said nothing more, and walked away.

At the same time, among the students that the short, unattractive, and poor individual had encountered throughout the day, half of them experienced unexpected visitors upon returning to their rooms

She quietly climbed over to the window of Wang Qi's room, subtly channeling her inner energy, instantly shattering the lock inside the window without making a sound

Until a shadow suddenly appeared behind her.

Wang Qi quietly climbed over the wall from the other side of the guesthouse after leaving her room, completely unaware that a greedy and foolish young graduate in her eyes actually possessed such cunning!

A hand, either cautiously or with a mix of fear and excitement, carefully embraces the money bag, holding it tightly to the chest

Is it to choose to fight with that cold weapon, or to take that bag equivalent to ten years' worth of money

After giving the agreed signal to the short and poor leader through the curtains, he left

When spending money does not guarantee that all messages will be intercepted, why should one still spend money? Especially when the problem can be completely resolved with only half of the amount spent.

The empire can afford to destroy, but that does not mean it must do so

Wang Qi smiled and shook his head without speaking, clearly wary of eavesdroppers on the other side of the wall. He simply placed his hand lightly on a certain part of his body, and the loser suddenly realized...

What method? The short, poor individual was stunned on the spot; he and the *illustration* book believed this idea to be extremely clever. What else could be done?

---

However, the woman in charge remained calm and devised a countermeasure. "Teams 1 to 5, follow me in pursuit; Teams 6 to 10, stay behind. If the relevant mercenary groups within the city leave, pursue but do not engage, and wait for the mercenaries to provide support before striking."

This means that the brilliant strategy of the Tiger Courage Corps commander was soon deciphered by others, at least in part.

The leader of the Tiger Courage team wore a heavy expression and uttered through clenched teeth: "The incident of the Nightmare Alarak will repeat! There is still a chance to leave now. The saboteurs of the Empire must leave some personnel behind because the information cards in the city have not been completely recovered. If we wait any longer, we won't be able to leave!"

Captain, something is wrong! We must leave immediately

The message is valuable, and I will give you an additional 50,000 Empire Coins.

Understood

What I want is to create the effect that the Empire of Destruction finds me the most suspicious

The room on the top floor

Unfortunately, she is all alone

The empire's surveillance was met with a quiet disdain, and the words clearly conveyed a sense of contempt. "Give me the card, and the money will be yours. This amount is enough for you to live comfortably in such a small place"

The chosen position for monitoring the empire is excellent, as it allows a view of Wang Qike's room window and the situation at the front door of the inn

Not correct

After the short and poor leader finished speaking, Wang Qi smiled and waved his hand, saying: "There is no need to mention these things. Since we are friends, there is no reason to fear danger. I am only concerned that it may implicate too many people. I have always aspired to be a mercenary; how could I be afraid of danger?"

The pouch contains 50,000 Destruction Empire coins, which are one of the currencies that can circulate in any empire across the universe. This is equivalent to 500,000 of the currency used in the Neutral Star System. The cold weapons beside the pouch are not only tools of combat but also symbolize the deterrent power of the Destruction Empire

A card with information about each book was handed to the visiting guests

The short, unattractive, and poor president, who had been waiting all along, was taken aback by the size of the gap intentionally left in the curtain, and hurriedly rushed back to the inn where the Tiger Courage Mercenary Corps was located

Indeed, it also depends on the value it holds

In the guesthouse

Brother! I was wrong! I swear—I truly had no idea this matter was related to the destruction of the empire! Even if I had a hundred times the courage, I would never dare to agree to that short, poor person!

Of course, he never expected that Wang Qi was also carrying two information cards, which were given to him by the short and poor president. As for the two cards bought for fifty thousand to sabotage the empire, they were certainly fake, because Wang Qi happened to have the information cards with him. Moreover, the information cards prepared by Captain Hu Dan were originally purchased temporarily in Qihang City, with a mixed variety, and there was no need to consider whether their appearances were the same.

The short and poor leader took a few breaths and hurriedly summarized the situation. "... Before leaving, Wang Qi mentioned that those who seek to undermine the empire might consider using money to buy their way, and she believes that the reinforcements aiming to disrupt the empire could arrive sooner than we anticipated. They could very well recruit local mercenary groups from nearby star systems, even at a high cost"

Yes, that's right. I also know some information. How much can you offer? The man looked expectantly, his gaze mixed with unease. Initially, he worried that the people from the Empire of Destruction would kill him after taking the card, which made him hesitant to seek greater benefits. He felt that his relationship with the short, poor president was quite ordinary, and in the face of such a huge sum, that little connection was certainly insignificant. With this money, he could cover his two younger brothers' future tuition fees, and they could replace their old, small house with a larger one. If the Empire of Destruction could offer a bit more, he could even consider getting a wife for himself, and his two brothers would have their dowries secured!

Wang Qi once said that if the amount of money offered by the Empire of Destruction is too high, it is certain that there will be issues with the *map* and *book*, and it is possible that someone might proactively leak information in exchange for greater benefits. Therefore, it was agreed to use the curtain as a signal. If the gap in the curtain is only one-fifth of its size, it indicates that the Empire of Destruction has offered more than 50,000, and we should leave immediately

... ...

Wang Qi left a long time ago

It was learned from the graduates that each person received more than one message card

The woman from the Three-Eyed Tribe, who had spoken first, was momentarily taken aback. They had indeed overlooked this possibility; firstly, they had underestimated mercenaries from such a small place; secondly, the overall combat capability of the pursuers from the Empire was far superior to theirs. However, she was not convinced by a brash youth like Wang Qi, and with a disdainful sneer, she said: "Nonsense! The captain has already considered various possibilities, and giving you two cards alone is a precaution against this."

Chapter Introduction: Li Ying resolutely passed through the window and leaped onto the bed... However, the cold reality told her: do not be too excited

Beneath the tossed bedding lies a pile of miscellaneous items stacked in the shape of a human figure, including blankets, pillows and so on

The commander of the Tiger Courage squad changed his expression slightly, suddenly stood up and ordered: "Prepare to depart immediately!"

The short, poor president had long been worried about others. At this moment, he thought of several college friends who were not suited to bear such danger and pressure, secretly regretting it. Suddenly, he stood up and said: "I need to retrieve some cards!"

The members of the Tiger Courage Mercenary Group gathered together, originally waiting for news from the short, poor president. Suddenly, upon hearing such remarks, most of them frowned. A woman from the Three-Eyed Tribe reproached, "What are you shouting about?" Clearly dissatisfied with the reckless behavior of a newcomer who knew nothing.

Kill him and bring back everything he has on him

The short, poor person gave me two message cards and asked me to give one to someone else. I just gave one to the brother next door, and now I can go retrieve it to hand it over to you
