C629 Star Snow's Entrustment
In the face of their return, there were already people who came to receive them. The person who came to receive them was just as the two of them had expected. It was the boss of Star Universe Hall, Hsing Kongxue.
The latter should have also seen the strength and battle results that they had displayed on the battlefield. If that was the case, perhaps, the distrust in the latter's heart towards Chu Tian and Jian Lin had disappeared. It was precisely because of this that the latter was standing in front of them.
"It's all thanks to the two of you for this battle. If it wasn't for your help... Those Mechanical Soldier are a huge problem." Hsing Kongxue smiled and said. The latter was still as calm and collected as before. No one was able to see through the exact thoughts in her heart.
The two of them did not respond. It was likely that Hsing Kongxue did not come here to see them just to express her condolences. If that was the case, they could totally let someone else handle it. Just as they had expected. At this time, Hsing Kongxue had already sent an invitation to them.
"In order to thank the two of you for your help, I have already set up a banquet to welcome the two of you. Please follow me." Hsing Kongxue said.
Jian Lin and Chu Tian looked at each other. They were here to ask Hsing Kongxue for help. At this moment, they finally had the chance to talk to her face to face. If they missed this opportunity, they were afraid that the clues they were looking for would be cut off.
When they returned to Arcane Magic Star, they could not feel any trace of the battle in the starry sky. This kind of false calmness made them feel uncomfortable.
At this moment, Chu Tian and Jian Lin were sitting on Hsing Kongxue's exclusive warship. The interior of the warship was made into a luxurious room. Both of them were treated here by the latter, although the latter had prepared a lot of delicious food. To the two of them, these things were not attractive at all.
"You two don't have to restrain yourselves. I sincerely thank the two of you for helping me in the previous battle. As for the reward, I naturally won't treat you unfairly. The ten thousand Mechanical Soldiers can be said to be entirely dependent on the two of you. It's just that there are people helping to stall for time on the battlefield. Therefore, we can only give you two hundred million in reward. I wonder if you're satisfied with it. " Hsing Kongxue said.
The 200 million figure also shocked Chu Tian. He never thought that they would earn such a huge amount in such a short period of time. But after thinking about it carefully, if it wasn't a coincidence, they wouldn't be able to win against those Mechanical Soldier. Hsing Kongxue's price was also quite reasonable. Or it could be said that she had slightly mistreated Chu Tian and the others, but this price was enough for the two of them. After all, they still had more important matters to attend to this time.
"I don't have any objections to the reward, but before that... Actually, President Hsing Kongxue and I have something to ask of you. That's why we have been staying in Arcane Magic Star. I wonder if you can use your connections to help us find out some information. " Jian Lin said.
At this moment, Chu Tian's gaze also fell on Hsing Kongxue. This was their goal. They wanted to use Hsing Kongxue's relationship to find a way to get rid of the Great Dao Curse.
Hsing Kongxue was not surprised when she heard Jian Lin's words. She was afraid that she had already predicted what Chu Tian and the others were thinking.
"This naturally isn't a problem. I have also said that you have helped Arcane Magic Star a lot. That is equivalent to helping me. I will try my best to satisfy your request. But it seems like this isn't the place to talk. Follow me. "
After saying that, Hsing Kongxue led the two of them out of the living room. After that, they only moved to a room similar to the study room. However, Chu Tian could clearly feel that it was different. This room seemed to be isolated from the outside world. Although he didn't know what kind of method he had used, this room was like an independent space. It was impossible for the people outside to know what was going on in the study room.
"You should be talking about the Original Codex." Hsing Kongxue went straight to the point.
Chu Tian thought to himself. Indeed, Hsing Kongxue knew very well that he had borrowed the power of the Dao Runes to attack in the Star Level Warship, but the latter clearly did not have any intention of threatening Chu Tian.
"Just like what you said, the thing we want to request is the solution to the Great Dao Curse. A friend of mine has been eroded by the Dao Runes, and is now in imminent danger. That's why I want to know the method to remove the curse. " Chu Tian said.
Hsing Kongxue looked thoughtful, as if she was thinking about something.
"Everyone knows that the Original Codex has fallen into the hands of all the major powers. Even I have never seen the Original Codex before. The power within it has become a mystery. If you want to find a way to remove the erosion, I'm afraid it will be very difficult for you to obtain any information. " Hsing Kongxue said.
Upon hearing the latter's words, Chu Tian could not help but reveal a disappointed expression. Just like what Hsing Kongxue had said, ordinary people would not be able to come into contact with this Original Codex, let alone know the method to break it.
"But I also said that I will try my best to satisfy your request. I will get someone to think of a way to solve this matter. If there is a result, I will contact the two of you. I don't know what your thoughts are." Hsing Kongxue said.
"Thank you very much." Chu Tian said.
No matter what, Hsing Kongxue had more connections than them. With the help of the latter, there was more hope.
"Then I have a presumptuous request. I don't know if you guys are willing to help."
Hsing Kongxue suddenly changed the topic. Chu Tian and Jian Lin both focused their attention. Since the other party would meet them like this, it was naturally not as simple as a simple greeting. And now, it was Hsing Kongxue's true purpose.
"If you want me to participate in this war, we only managed to obtain such a result by chance. I'm afraid that the two of us alone won't be of much use." Jian Lin said.
They could imagine the war in front of the friend of nature, but to the two of them, such a huge war couldn't be changed by their strength alone.
"Don't worry, I won't let you participate in this war recklessly. However, I have a request for you two. I hope that you can send a letter of mine to Machine Star. I think both of you have seen the current situation. It is very difficult to get in touch with the outside world when Arcane Magic Star is surrounded. Although I can also send someone else, to be honest, after seeing the skills and strength of the two of you... I think you two are the best candidates. "
After saying that, Hsing Kongxue took out an antique envelope. In such a highly civilized space, such a letter was still used to communicate. This was something that even Chu Tian did not expect.
"You two can treat this as a commission from a mercenary. As long as you two can complete this commission, I will add another 100 million to the sum. Furthermore, I, Hsing Kongxue, owe you a favor."
Hsing Kongxue's words were quite tempting. Moreover, this commission was more valuable than the sum of the money. The favor Hsing Kongxue owed was not something that could be measured with money. The latter was the boss of the Star Universe Hall. The favor owed by such a person could be repaid in the future.
"Does that mean we will be hunted down if we escort this letter?" The two of them did not think Hsing Kongxue would make such a straightforward offer. This seemingly simple job was probably not as simple as it seemed.
"I am not sure if there will be a hunt, but Arcane Magic Star is so big. Even if there is a traitor, it is still possible. However, what you two need to pay more attention to is that you must pass this letter to a person called Misi when you enter the Machine Star. You can't pass this letter to anyone other than him. " Hsing Kongxue said.
Chu Tian and Jian Lin fell silent. This request seemed simple, but the hidden danger behind it was unimaginable.
