Chapter 2037 Ransom
"The speed of time...is different?"
Granny Mei's words finally made Yao Daichi remember that there is such a setting in this world.
"Yes, the flow speeds in the two worlds are different."
"In our world, six years have passed, but in this world, only one year has passed."
"With such an exaggerated time velocity difference, it is indeed possible that only a few years have passed here while the world over there has undergone earth-shaking changes."
"So, this Miss Denise should really be a remnant of the Bear Country that has been incorporated into the unified country."
Denise had a blank expression on her face, and Lin Youde sensed that she was a little depressed, but her voice was quite calm.
"I also learned about the affairs of Water Blue Star through some channels."
"My country has perished, and my family members are probably gone too."
"Living alone in this world is no different from returning to the original world."
"Besides, in this world, I still have the power to protect myself. If I return to my original world, I still don't know how I will be treated."
"So, I have no plans to return to the Blue Water Planet or even contact the Blue Water Planet people."
Hearing what Denise said, Lin Youde nodded slightly.
"I see. Since you only want to be a mercenary, I won't use our hometown status as an excuse to make a fuss."
"Since you have already given up the mission, I wonder if you are interested in taking over my mission."
Denise looked at Lin Youde in confusion: "You want to give me a commission?"
Lin Youde spread his hands: "You are a mercenary, and you are alone. I don't think anyone will redeem you, right?"
"Since no one has redeemed you, as my captive, if you want to leave me, you must pay a price. This is very reasonable, right?"
As a mercenary, Denise accepted this very quickly.
"I understand. Now that I have become your prisoner, I have no choice."
"In our line of work, we are already prepared for anything."
"If you want me to work for you, I can comply, but how long will it take?"
"Also, if it's a mission that means I'm going to die, I'll refuse or not do it."
"Everything is just for survival. If we can't survive, then the mission will be meaningless."
In response, Lin Youde waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you go on a mission that will get you killed. You are more valuable to me if you are alive."
"Let's set the time limit at three years. Within three years, you will work for me and become my subordinate."
"As long as you help me complete the task I assigned, I will pay you some extra compensation."
"After three years, you can leave on your own and regain your freedom."
Denise murmured: "Three years..."
Seeing that Denise was hesitant, Ann Marie thought for a moment and persuaded her, "Ms. Denise, three years is not a long time. Using three years of service in exchange for your life is a good deal no matter how you look at it."
The corner of Constance's mouth twitched slightly: "No, Blue Stone, you haven't recovered your memory yet, right? You have no memory, and you are so impatient to stand over there?"
Ann Marie blushed slightly, but answered firmly: "Even if I don't have any memories, I still believe in De Ge. Besides, I'm doing this for Miss Denise's own good."
"Although we didn't get along for long, at least we were colleagues for a short period of time."
"If I can, I don't want to see her die in vain."
Constance was speechless and could only complain: "It's true... after just a brief contact, the change is so great. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't believe that you are the same person as the Blue Stone just now."
Annemarie blushed slightly and said nothing.
Lin Youde glanced at Denise who was still thinking, and did not rush to persuade her. Instead, he looked at Constance.
"What about you? You are just a worker, and your position in the Church of Order is not high, right?"
"If no one comes to redeem you, would you consider coming to work for me?"
Constance shook her head. "No, you want to deal with the Church of Order. I can't be with the Church of Order. Even if I agree, I can't do anything. This has no value to you, and I guess you won't be interested."
"And I just want revenge, I'm not interested in paying any other price with my body."
"So, give me a chance. I will use the familiar puppet to send a message to the Church and ask them to redeem me."
"I just don't know how much you want."
Seeing that Constance was unwilling to work for him, Lin Youde did not force her and looked at Nimru.
"How much is she worth? I'm new here and I don't know what to exchange for."
"Nimulu, what are you guys lacking here? Give her a list and see how much you can get."
Nimulu looked at Lin Youde in surprise: "Hmm? You're giving it to me?"
Lin Youde smiled and said, "After all, you have taken care of Xiao Si for more than a year, so I should give you some compensation, right?"
"Besides, it didn't take much effort to catch her. It was just a piece of cake."
"Besides, Miss Constance wants to redeem herself, and what happened here will definitely be known to the Church of Order."
"I don't think that a behemoth like the Church of Order will obediently pay the ransom and compromise, so there will definitely be another war later."
"By that time, I think I can get another batch of high-quality hostages, and then I can exchange them for money again."
"So, this is a gift for you."
Seeing that Lin Youde treated her like a commodity in front of her, Constance's cheeks trembled slightly.
If the situation was not stronger than the person and Lin Youde had no intention of hurting her, Constance would have wanted to perish together with him. It was too bullying.
Fortunately, Constance, who had experienced many things, was in a good state of mind and managed to hold it back.
Nimulu was not very cunning and responded happily: "Okay, okay, then I'll go see what we need recently and ask the people from the Church of Order to bring us some of the things we need when they come."
"By the way, Lin Youde, when the Order Church attacks us later and you kill all those guys in one go, can you capture her again and earn another ransom?"
Nimulu's words shocked everyone in the audience.
Granny May covered her face with her hands, speechless, but Hopes flapped his wings.
"Not bad, not bad, little girl, you have made progress recently. You can actually be so mean, it's worth my previous teaching you, you have really improved."
Lin Youde looked at Hopes speechlessly: "So, what did you teach Nimulu? You didn't teach her a good queen badly, did you?"
