Chapter 964: Chapter 351: Devil Contract, Unlucky as Hell (5k)_2
Once they passed through the basement, Gauss hadn’t reacted yet.
"Is this even possible?"
"Don’t think too much about it, people in my family are very amiable. I’m asking you for a favor, there aren’t many rules."
Leading Gauss to the room where Men Xinsheng was suppressed, Wen Yan first bestowed a bit of Yang Energy on Gauss, allowing him to temporarily be immune to the overwhelming Yang Energy suppression here.
Upon entering the room, Wen Yan pointed at the strangely appearing Men Xinsheng, briefly explained the situation, then asked.
"Can you see anything?"
"It certainly seems a bit like a Devil’s Contract."
"Someone faced backlash before, but after providing compensation, the backlash dissipated."
"How much compensation was given?" Gauss keenly caught the critical point.
"Three times."
"300%, huh, there must be part of the Devil Contract involved, 300% is the minimum point."
"What do you mean?"
"After signing the contract, ordinary traditional devils actually don’t care about breach of contract.
As long as you can afford the price, breaching the contract is actually no big deal.
Either they’re quite powerful, and the devils dare not ask you for an account anymore.
Or, if the price for breaching is something the traditional devils find satisfying, they will also terminate the contract.
It’s just that those guys are too greedy, they will take people’s souls bit by bit through the contract.
If termination is involved, 300% is the minimum limit.
As long as you can afford the price, devils dare to sell even themselves, the rope to hang themselves, they would dare to sell."
Gauss stretched out a finger, poked through the black aura surrounding Men Xinsheng, then tasted it with his finger in his mouth.
"This taste, I don’t recognize it, nor am I familiar with it, it might just have a bit of Devil Contract content mixed in, but isn’t traditional devil stuff."
"Can it be resolved?"
"As long as the backlash can’t harm, why bother to resolve it?" Gauss said earnestly.
Wen Yan hadn’t reacted for a moment, pondered, and said.
"Are you saying resolving it might trigger some detection, but leaving it unresolved is fine?
If it’s only backlash that can be borne, it’s better not to deal with it?"
"Yeah, if you completely resolve it, the other party of the contract would sense it.
Otherwise, if you killed this guy, the other party wouldn’t sense it either.
Because his death isn’t a breach of contract.
If death counted as a breach of contract, the backlash would forcibly control him to prevent death.
Then it wouldn’t count as backlash, the power and rank required would be very high."
Gauss said this, pointing upwards, and Wen Yan instantly understood.
"Can you help track it? Consider it going on a mission, there’s bonus pay."
"Enough to buy games? I’m finding games surprisingly expensive, my month’s salary can’t buy many games."
"If you help out, the games you buy, even if you don’t sleep at night, should last you a year!"
"Let me take a look."
Gauss immediately focused, extended his hand, reached into the black mist, then stepped back and pulled behind.
The black mist was drawn out some, swiftly condensing into bizarre characters, part of which were Divine Land’s characters.
At first glance, Wen Yan gave up trying to understand, quickly took out his phone, snapping several photos.
After confirming the photos captured the characters formed by the black mist, he took more pictures and switched to recording a video when new characters appeared.
Gauss extended both hands, as though holding a massive book, examining the characters transformed from the black mist.
After a long while, the extracted black mist returned behind Men Xinsheng’s face, Gauss then raised his head.
"Definitely referenced a Devil Contract, some runes used are devil runes.
The contract content grants the opportunity for the party to transform into Different Races after death.
Whether he can seize the chance depends entirely on himself.
If successful, the party provides necessary guidance, directing him to complete advancement.
The rest is up to him.
He has the qualification to use the recognized currency by the party to exchange for things from them.
What he can exchange depends fully on himself.
Hmm, a very standard rigorous Devil-style contract.
The latter part, a long section, are limitations he must follow.
Cannot disclose any content about the party to non-same contracted individuals, except the allowed part.
There’s heaps of limitations, quite lengthy.
I suspect they didn’t carefully read the content when signing the contract.
Even the devils find the restrictions somewhat excessive.
However, the breach penalty isn’t high, just the base 300%.
Seems the party doesn’t care much about breach happenings, quite odd."
Gauss merely shared what he observed with Wen Yan, remaining powerless for the rest, half of his rank being sealed, aside the traditional devils not having good ties with him.
Wen Yan grabbed Gauss, led him back to the surface, letting him continue to enjoy torture in the game.
Wen Yan continued to question Men Xinsheng about the case. freeweɓnøvel.com
By dawn, as the sun rose, Men Xinsheng withered, and the black mist surging on him calmed down, returning to tranquility.
Wen Yan held the newly interrogated information that might link to seven or eight related cases, and the captured photos and videos, sending them all at once to the General Director.
Deciphering, let it be handled by professionals.
Wen Yan felt that only relying on Men Xinsheng alone, the intelligence source seemed a bit too singular, besides, the intel from Men Xinsheng couldn’t be considered fully reliable.
