Chapter 1232: Exchange
— An equivalent exchange? Reed asked, and quickly calmed down, a slight look of confusion appearing in his eyes.
Seeing Reed's puzzled look, Bubtney secretly kicked Su Xiao with his hind paw, clearly wanting to say, " Master, hurry up, I won't be able to hold on any longer».
Bubtney was very good at lowering the other party's "IQ" to his level during negotiations. Earlier, he greeted Reed and wanted to give him his favorite sharp sticks, which combined with his charisma dealt a combined blow to Reed's mind.
Of course, this attack was just a metaphor, and Bubtney didn't actually lower Reed's "IQ". He simply used his unique method of negotiating, and his charisma played a vital role in this. Before Reed could adapt to Bubtney's negotiating style, Su Xiao cut in, which significantly reduced the complexity of the conversation.
But since Reed was too strong and had lived too long, Bubtney's "attack" was very limited. The tomb keeper could escape Bubtni's clutches at any moment.
Once he gets back to his usual routine, Reed will be difficult to deal with. A little carelessness could lead to hostility, so Su Xiao had to end the negotiations as soon as possible.
— Yes, an equivalent exchange. I can help you enter the Void, and my help will be... " Slaughter appeared in Su Xiao's hand, and he began to draw something on the floor with it. "First of all, this is the world you're in," Su Xiao said, and drew a circle on the floor.
— Emptiness is not what you think it is. You can't get into it by breaking through the outer layer of the planet. If you do this, you will only end up in an oxygen-free environment without gravity, which will eventually create a death trap for you, " After finishing, Su Xiao drew a few X's outside the circle.
— You're right. Once I tried to fly high into the sky. When I reached a certain height, the wind resistance increased by an order of magnitude, but when I overcame this special section, I found myself in a place without air. I couldn't breathe in there. No, more like I could breathe in there, but it just didn't make sense, " Reed said, and nodded. In the past, he had almost gone mad, and of course, he had tried to leave this world.
Hearing Reed's words, Su Xiao paused. The tomb keeper was indeed very strong. He was really only able to break through the atmosphere with his own strength.
— Once you've already tried it, everything else will be easier to understand. First of all, you should know that the Void is not in the same dimension as your world. The void is in another dimension. As for its structure, it would be more appropriate to say that the Void is a collection of many worlds. As for the specific number of worlds or planets, the exact number will be difficult to calculate. There are too many of them, but although the Void is huge, it has a stable energy system and environment...
Reed could understand the first part of what Su Xiao said, but the more Su Xiao talked about the Void, the more Reed's face changed.
He was like a duck that saw thunder for the first time.
Reed couldn't understand most of what Su Xiao said, but with the help of some keywords, he was able to understand that it was all true.
— Getting to the Void from this world won't be easy. To do this, you will need to restrain the pressure of teleportation for an ultra-long distance for a long time. Without proper protection, even your body will eventually be flattened due to the resistance of space.
— Reid muttered and nodded, not quite sure where this was going. Su Xiao, on the other hand, was already beginning to pull the wool over Reed's ears, for when it came to the Void, he could definitely say anything that would play into his hands.
Reed was very strong and was once the strongest being in this world, but the technological level of this world stopped at the level of the Middle Ages. Some fundamental things about the cosmos were known to some powerful beings, but only a very small amount, and even the strongest beings did not know what principle everything worked on.
Why did Su Xiao want to send Reed to the void? Or why did Su Xiao want to send Reed out of this world? Everything is very simple. He was going to go deeper into this temple, and since Reed was guarding the entrance of this temple, Su Xiao wouldn't be able to enter such a dangerous place with peace of mind.
Su Xiao didn't think that Reed was the type of NPC who was friendly and gave out equipment and other help to the first travelers who came along for nothing. Su Xiao had never met such people before, even in the derived worlds. Most of the characters he interacted with were either cunning or violent.
And Reed was the keeper of the tomb. If Su Xiao caused some damage to this tomb, Reed would obviously not be happy about it and might very well try to kill Su Xiao.
When Su Xiao saw that Reed had the title of tomb guardian, he knew that he had to get rid of it or else he wouldn't be able to go inside.
Killing Reed was too difficult, at least not with Su Xiao's current strength, so he had to find another way to get rid of him.
Sometimes Su Xiao would act recklessly, but if he really was such a person, he would have become a corpse long ago.
— That's all. I've described everything about entering the Void. I'll tell you in advance that you won't be able to get there with one hundred percent probability. Teleportation, especially over very long distances, is very dangerous, and it is accompanied by... a strong hammer blow to the back of the head.
Su Xiao didn't promise that Reed would be able to reach the Void safely. If he said something like that, it would look very suspicious.
— And with what chance can I reach the Void? I want to hear everything without embellishment.
— Approximately sixty percent, but I have a very valuable item, if you help me, I will help you in return and you will be able to enter the Void with about an eighty percent chance, " Su Xiao said and waved his hand, and a legendary time and space coin appeared in his hand. Although it was covered in cracks, the power of time and space could be easily felt inside it.
As soon as Reed saw the coin, his eyes lit up and a dangerous light appeared in them.
— I've already used it once. It was thanks to her that I was able to enter this world from the Void. You must have already figured out why I came here. Yes, I want to find three keys and enter the ruins. You will also need to be careful when using this coin. If you use it incorrectly, the space-time power contained in this coin will kill you before you can teleport away.
Su Xiao didn't seem to see the dangerous light in Reed's eyes, and because of Su Xiao's words, the bloodthirsty intent in Reed's eyes quickly disappeared.
— If you had come two hundred years earlier, I might have been able to give you something in return. I only forged two hammers: one for fire, which I use now, and the other for ice. I put the other one in the temple to suppress a guy who hasn't been very peaceful lately.
The meaning of what Reed said could be summed up in one simple phrase: he was very poor.
— If you want to find the three precious keys, all I can say is that the Shadowstone has been missing for many years, and the Vanishing Stone is somewhere deep in the temple, but even I do not know where. As for the law stone... I'm one of the few people who knows where it's hidden, since everyone else is probably already dead.
— It's a done deal, " Su Xiao replied and held out his hand. Originally, he wanted to buy some good equipment from Reed, but Reed was a bit stingy. Fortunately, he had the information he needed about the keys, which was quite enough.
If he agreed to help Reed enter the Void without asking for anything in return, Reed would definitely start to see it as a trap, since there were no free lunches in this world, but the situation was a stalemate, since Reed was stingy and unwilling to make significant concessions.
In the past, the strongest being in this world wasn't that generous.
