Chapter 935 - 9: United Against Outsiders, Time to Kill! (Part 2)
Duncan pondered for a moment and said, "Intelligence support, economic support, it would be best if you could secretly provide me with a group of people."
Sharella thought for a while and said, "I happen to have a band of reckless mercenaries under my command."
"They can be your helpers."
"Moreover, they have a clean background, as long as you pay, they will sell their lives to anyone."
After Duncan got everything he wanted, he turned around and prepared to leave.
However, just as he was about to leave, Sharella suddenly stood up in front of him, stopping him with a slightly suggestive and playful expression, softly saying, "Are you interested in working for me?"
"What Della-Isgill can give you, I can give the same."
"What she can’t give, I can also give."
As she spoke, a faint fragrance wafted over, and this beautiful woman stood very close, her expression very ambiguous, yet in the depths of her eyes lay indifference and calculation, as if contemplating what kind of price to offer to win over the man in front of her. To her, even her own body was part of the price, as long as the price was right, she would give it away.
The Five Fierce Women were not simple characters.
In modern terms, those women who calculate everything clearly and accurately are the modern versions of the Five Fierce Women.
Dealing with them requires a hundred wits.
It’s possible that tonight, just after you’ve slept with them, tomorrow they can sell you out, as long as the price is right, they can even sell themselves.
Duncan stepped back a bit, did not reply, just nodded slightly, and then left directly.
There is an order to things.
Della-Isgill had already bet on him first, as long as this Gold Lord continues to pay, Duncan values his reputation in his work.
"Humph!"
Sharella watched Duncan’s departing back, snorted coldly, and then called for a wanderer and gave some instructions.
No matter what, inquiring about the Lady of Wealth is the most important.
The Five Fierce Women will weigh the pros and cons, so there’s no worry about them ruining big plans. In the original history, the Lady of Wealth, Waukeen, disappeared for over a decade, yet the church continued to operate normally, only a few corners were poached by the church of the Goddess of Joy.
It can be said that the internal management abilities of the Wealth Church’s high-ranking figures are fully maxed out, whether it’s the Holy Coin Shepherd Leader or the Upper Gold Five Fierce Women, they are all top talents.
Despite being without a goddess for more than ten years, the Wealth Church still operated as usual, even opening business centers, financing centers, currency exchange centers, and deposit storage places everywhere. One can imagine how many professionals proficient in making money are there in the church.
Even if the military power is lacking, they can use money to hire plenty of experts to sell their lives.
Of course.
The Wealth Church’s most profitable business is still lending, and they’re not greedy for all the gains.
"If wealth turns into capital."
"Then it’s formidable."
After Duncan left the black market, he immediately began preparing. He had only been working over this period, leaving his legitimate skills in killing behind.
This is unacceptable.
Only by cutting down people can he strengthen his human form, which is Duncan’s vocational work. However, in this world, one cannot kill indiscriminately, because random killing of innocents can put one into the evil camp. Duncan doesn’t want to be chased by a group of dull Paladins in the future.
Things need to be done with a legitimate reason, cutting people is the same, otherwise, if your infamy grows, Paladins can chase you across half the continent. If your good reputation grows too much, dark guards might use you as a stepping stone to please some Evil God.
Duncan needs to stabilize himself closer to a neutral position first.
Upon returning home, Duncan began to review the many abilities of the human form, many abilities had become gray, and the data page transformed into a rough vocational panel.
But actually, it doesn’t mean much to him, because conventional vocational systems are ineffective for him.
——"Golden Eye (inactive): The Divine Grace of Lady of Wealth, upon activation, you can see the spiritual light of treasures around, including equipment, curiosities, treasures, etc., on others, allowing you to judge the target’s wealth and capability. You can also find unexpected treasures in the wild more easily."
A defunct Divine Grace.
It is basically useless before the Lady of Wealth returns.
——"Money Talks (Wealth) (Special Ability) (inactive): Money makes the world go round. When you engage in negotiations, intimidations, bribery, and other actions, you can try offering the other party an ’irresistible price’. Once the deal is struck, you can impose a contract on the other party.
Through this special ability, Lady of Wealth’s followers can extend business to Baator Hell and the Bottomless Abyss."
[Requires support from the wealth domain!]
[Can be merged into the Golden Rule.]
——"Wealth’s Shield (inactive): Under the blessing of the wealth domain, the higher the value of the curiosities you equip, the greater their effect, which can even exceed the limitations of the curiosity itself."
This resembles a kind of Divine Grace or a special ability bestowed by Lady of Wealth.
Generally speaking, only core members of the Wealth Church can have it, Duncan-Starfall obviously counts as a core middle-management member.
——"Holy Healing (inactive)."
——"Golden Guard’s Protection (inactive)."
——"Divine Power (inactive)."
——"Divine Shield (inactive)."
One is the Paladin’s holy healing, one is a similar exemption ability enhancement like Torm’s warriors, basically, all inactive.
The current human form is practically a high-tier warrior on a whiteboard.
As for Divine Magic Casting Ability, typically, Duncan could use 0-3 circle divine spells, but now that’s not possible either, some priests may not necessarily cast many divine spells.
——"Duncan-Starfall: Level 5 Warrior/Level 10 Golden Guard (replaceable)/Level 1 Weapon Master (replaceable)."
