Chapter 482: 481, Equal and Reciprocal Agreement_1

“Equal mutual benefits? What do you mean?” Su Yu was somewhat confused.

Alyssa stood up, cradling Morning Star in her arms, and began to slowly pace around the garden. “Nemesis, as time passes, the strength of the human race in your world will become stronger and stronger, reaching the average strength of either the second or third tier. This poses a serious threat to the lives of our citizens.”

“Therefore, we must sign an agreement of equal mutual benefits to resolve the conflicts between us.”

“That makes sense,” Su Yu agreed, “So, how do you plan to make this agreement?”

“Quite simple,” Alyssa turned to face Su Yu, “In our world, your country’s people cannot illegally harm my subjects. If so, they will have to pay a corresponding price, up to permanent expulsion from the game world and corresponding imprisonment measures in your world.”

“Of course, after the agreement is signed, we can deepen our cooperation within a general cooperation framework. For instance, introducing industrialization from your world to liberate my people from labour; we could invest jointly in overseas trade to earn money from the whole world; my people could give you more high-quality tasks based on their authority. What do you think?”

Hearing Alyssa’s words, Su Yu’s eyes lit up, “This is good! I believe the United Government will definitely agree. A mutually beneficial situation fits the needs of both sides well. I will help you contact them right now!”

Finishing his speech, Su Yu opened the private chat window and relayed Alyssa’s words to Snow Leopard.

Snow Leopard was hurrying to the [Panda Empire Embassy] in the Imperial Capital. The crowd outside the embassy was so dense that he could barely move.

Knowing that the Taoist profession could wield flying swords for long-distance attacks and even fly with swords, players wishing to join the Pandamen or switch to the Taoist profession were flocking over like fish crossing a river.

Snow Leopard, who had just stepped into the fourth tier and could not yet fly, felt helpless in the face of such congestion.

However, his helplessness disappeared instantly after receiving a private message from Su Yu, as he had other things to attend to.

Snow Leopard deeply understood the importance of cooperation between both sides. This was definitely a good opportunity to negotiate cooperation with the Goldfinch Empire!

So he quickly responded: “Got it. I’ll go offline to contact Chairman Hu Jing right now and relay the Empress’s intentions to him.”

…

Twenty minutes later, the offline Snow Leopard returned to the game.

As soon as he logged on, he immediately sent Su Yu a message, “Nemesis, Chairman Hu Jing has agreed! The diplomats have started drafting the cooperation agreement, and the chairman will also send a special ambassador to meet Her Majesty the Empress in the game.”

“Got it, I’ll be waiting for your good news,” Su Yu replied, “But don’t forget to actualize your strength at Mogu Mountain Vault. Sky Dragon and the others have already arrived at the Pandamen Continent.”

“Alright,” Snow Leopard replied.

He didn’t need to worry about the cooperation between the United Government and the Goldfinch Empire. What he needed to do now was to proceed to the Pandamen Continent to actualize his strength as soon as possible.

But looking around, he was shocked.

His surroundings were particularly crowded, he could only see dense layers of people. The number of people was at least ten times more than half an hour ago!

“This…”

Feeling helpless, Snow Leopard could only open the guild chat room to ask, “Does anyone know of a way for me to quickly get to the Panda Empire from the front of the Panda Embassy?”

Seeing that it was Snow Leopard speaking, the chat room quickly responded.

[Zhan Tianjian]: “Snow Leopard boss, you’re also stuck in front of the embassy?”

[Pigeon Kiss]: “Me too, I’ve been stuck for more than ten minutes and haven’t moved. [Crying Emoji]”

[Enemy in the Clouds]: “I have a way… One of our guild members, [Mango Ice], accepted a hidden mission. Anyone who joins his team will be transported to a secondary plane with no people, which can avoid the long queues caused by the crowd!”

[Zhan Tianjian]: “Old Cloud, you’re not kind for not saying this earlier.”

[Pigeon Kiss]: “Exactly.”

[Enemy in the Clouds]: “It’s not my fault, I just found out. I’ll make Mango Ice add you now.”

…

Half a minute later, Snow Leopard received a friend and team invitation request from Mango Ice.

After accepting, all the people around him instantly disappeared. However, in the embassy hall, he could see Zhan Tianjian and Pigeon Kiss.

“Boss Snow Leopard!” Zhan Tianjian and Pigeon Kiss turned around to greet him.

“Hello, everyone get on with your quests,” Snow Leopard tersely greeted them, and walked swiftly towards the Pandaman Ambassador, [Season Fire Control], to accept the mission.

Snow Leopard maintained a certain guard against Zhan Tianjian.

In fact, Zhan Tianjian has always performed well. He’s upright, efficient and reliable. Snow Leopard would actually enjoy being friends with someone like him.

However, Su Yu had repeatedly asked him to keep his distance from Zhan Tianjian. Naturally, he couldn’t ignore this and tried his best to keep away from Zhan Tianjian.

At the same time, he had also deliberately limited the scale of Zhan Tian’s guild from growing too much, keeping this guild that originally had the potential to be among the top ten in the game world at the tail end of the top hundred. He wondered if Zhan Tianjian had noticed this yet.

…

After completing the task from Season Fire Control, Snow Leopard, rejecting Zhan Tianjian’s team invitation request, went off to complete the task alone.

The entire task line was straightforward, still sticking to killing monsters, bosses, collecting task items, and other cliche routines.

Snow Leopard had already advanced to the fourth tier, so carrying out this second tier task was no pressure, and he completed it easily.

The last part of the task was gaining the trust of the Pandamen. He then boarded the large treasure ship bound for the Pandamen continent.

…

Despite their seemingly naive appearance, the Pandamen were intelligent due to their large brains.

They clearly understood the value of players and knew that to win the upcoming battle, they would have to rely on fearless players.

Therefore, on the treasure ship, the Pandaman Captain [Zheng Keshuang] loudly told the players about how much the Pandamen loved peace, and did not wish to have disputes with other nations. He appealed to the players to actively defend the tranquility of the Pandamen world.

At the same time, he tempted them with benefits, promising generous rewards for the players that contributed significantly; for instance, the opportunity to enter the [Kunlun Mountain Nuozao Temple Trial], or the access to [Yulon Spring Eye], etc.

Getting one of these qualifications could not only bring players a large amount of experience, but also provide a certain effect of permanent attribute growth (similar effect to [Root potion]), causing the players’ eyes to light up, swearing to fight to defend the peace of the Pandaman Empire!

However, Snow Leopard did not show too much interest.

The rewards offered by the Pandaman captain didn’t give him much of a boost. He had a way to solve the experience points, and for the attribute template, after reaching a higher level in the future, he could find high-ranking root potions himself.

So, when the treasure ship docked on the Pandaman continent, Snow Leopard didn’t follow the main group, but instead bid farewell to the team alone, transformed into an eagle shape, and flew towards the north of the Pandaman continent, i.e., the direction of Kunlun Mountain-Mogu Mountain Vault.
