121. Chapter 121 Gray is a smart man!
Chapter 121 Gray is a smart man!
Rod read the document and felt that there was no problem. He asked Gray whether the logo of the Council House was fake.
Gray said there was no problem.
But, brother, have you ever looked at the logo?
Oh, it is precisely because he did not want to see it that it proved that the other party was real and reasonable.
”So, what is the content of the mission change?”
Kepting said: “It’s very simple. First, add a higher level of confidentiality agreement. The details of this mission shall not be disclosed to anyone. Here are detailed confidentiality clauses.”
Rod and Gray read it carefully and nodded.
This is not a big problem. Many clients will request confidentiality. It is understandable that the Council’s affairs require a higher level of confidentiality.
Captine continued: “Second, your mission this time is limited to assisting us in finding the Zat brothers of the Naked Bandage Man, but you are not allowed to contact them without authorization, nor are you allowed to arrest, interrogate, or do any other work without authorization.”
Rod asked: “That means as long as we find them and tell you their location, everything will have nothing to do with us, right?”
Captine said: “Yes, everything will be left to us in the future. Of course, we will also conduct searches, and your remuneration will remain unchanged.”
There is such a good thing? This brother Captine is a real person.
That’s impossible.
Rod thought there was something fishy here, but the other party was the client, and only reduced the workload without reducing the remuneration, so he seemed to have no reason to refuse.
He glanced at Gray, and Gray nodded to show that he had no objection.
Rod said: “We accept it.”
”Okay, then I’ll leave it to you.” Captine said, “Please start as soon as possible.”
So urgent? “Okay.” Rhodes held the pendant and said solemnly: “I am the one who communicates the two worlds…”
He recited the complete version of the chant meticulously. The ground lit up with magic light, and a river crab and a small shadow wolf appeared.
Although it is not a very strong wild monster, it must give the opponent an illusion that you are doing your best, no, it is a feeling.
This is like playing a game. When teammates fight with others, no matter how far away you are, you must tell the other party “I am going, I am going!”.
In this way, you can also give emotional value to your teammates when you lose – “If you can hold on for a few more seconds. ‘
”Is this… Star Spirit Magic? And summon two Star Spirits at the same time?”
Kepting said that he had opened his eyes today. Although Fairy Tail can cause trouble, it is also really talented.
It’s a pity that I can’t recognize what constellation the two Star Spirits are. Is the crab Cancer?
Rhodes said: “It is similar magic. They are good at searching. If there are items with the smell of the Zat brothers, it can improve efficiency a lot.”
”Sorry, we have no clues at all.” Keptim was a little ashamed.
The other party sent such a capable wizard, but he could not provide any help.
”It doesn’t matter. As long as they are active in the mountains, they will always leave different smells.”
Rhodes waved his hand to let the crab and the shadow wolf run away, “It’s just that the southern mountains are so big, please give us more time.”
”Of course, and we will also work hard to search.” Keptim raised his arms, “The search begins, cheer up!”
”Oh!!!”
The members of the forced detention team probably felt that they didn’t want to lose to the wizards of Fairy Tail. They were all excited and formed teams to start the action.
Gray put his hands in his pockets and watched Rod perform, and also watched the people from the Council walk away: “I’m talking to you…”
”Shh…” Rod pulled him in the opposite direction for a while, and then motioned him to continue.
”…” Gray wanted to ask if you were a little cunning, but now he was more concerned about another question, “Why did you lie to them?”
”Hey hey hey… What do you mean by lying? I just didn’t use my full strength. What’s wrong with keeping a little more magic power for self-defense when you go out?
And did I tell a lie just now? I just used a little trick to be lazy and slack off.”
Gray looked at him. It was even more terrifying that he could mislead people like that without telling a lie? Rod waved his hand: “Don’t look at me like that. Don’t you think it’s strange to suddenly change the content of the task?” It’s strange that the reward remains the same, but there are fewer things to do.
GrayAfter thinking for a while, he said, “It’s probably because the Council already knows the goal of the Naked Bandage Man.
They think this is a secret that we can’t know, so they deliberately changed the content of the mission. And…
This team probably doesn’t have anyone who is good at searching, and they are anxious to find the Zat brothers, so they didn’t cancel the mission directly, but continued to ask us for help… What’s that look in your eyes?”
It’s a touching look! Rod shook Gray’s hand up and down, and patted him on the back.
I didn’t expect that there are people in this guild who have brains and can use them.
I can discuss anything with Gray in the future.
Gray said with a sour face: “I always feel that you have looked down on me.”
”No, no, I just can’t imagine that a person who fights with Natsu all day and has his underwear taken away by him can have such a high IQ.”
Gray’s face flushed: “What does this have to do with underwear? Don’t you, a bastard, often fight with Natsu!”
”I thought you wouldn’t blush.”
”Who would say such a thing to my face so seriously!”
”Oh, sorry.” Rhode thought for a while and said, “Don’t mess around when you stay at Wendy’s house at night, or you will be beaten to death by the whole village.”
”No way!”
After “instructing” Gray a few times, Rhode called out other shadow wolves to search separately, and the area was set within the previously planned range.
As for him and Gray, they just need to find a place without mosquitoes to rest.
There were still some snacks I bought in Hargeon, so I could ask Gray to make a table to eat and play cards.
Thinking about the people who were working hard to search in the mountains, Rhode felt a little guilty: “Did you change the cards secretly?”
Gray pouted: “I’m not Kana.”
Roar? So Kana is a con man?
When it was getting dark, the two said hello to the people in the Council and returned to the Cat Transformation Inn to rest.
Wendy’s mood had improved a lot. When Rhode and Gray came back, she was holding the thick magic book and sitting at the door to study by the light.
”Mr. Rhode, Mr. Gray, welcome back!” Wendy closed the book and asked, “Did the mission go well?”
Rhode said: “It’s okay, but I have to go deeper tomorrow, so I’m afraid I can’t come here to live.”
”Why is that.” Wendy was a little disappointed. She really hoped that her home would be more lively.
Rhode said, “There is a mission, and there is nothing we can do about it. How about I bother you for two days after the mission is completed?”
“Yes!”
Xia Lulu stood in the doorway: “How long are you going to chat outside? The food will get cold.”
Gray said casually: “That’s just right. Cats are afraid of burns.”
”You bastard!” Xia Lulu ran back to the house and threw out a bunch of sticks, coarse cloth, ropes and other things.
”You’ve eaten outside, and it’s best to stay outside at night. Here’s a tent for you!”
Wendy whispered, “That’s the tent Xia Lulu borrowed from Magna. She said you might need it later.”
Oh~tsundere.
Rhode nodded and whispered in Wendy’s ear: “Do you think if I thank Xia Lulu formally now, will her expression be very interesting?”
Wendy hesitated and said, “Don’t do this?”
In fact, she was quite looking forward to it, but she didn’t want to tease Xia Lulu like this.
