Chapter 1297: When In Trouble, Call Daddy (3)
The eyes of the various mayors flickered as numerous thoughts crossed their minds.
A female mayor said, "Mayor Su, you can't joke about something like this. If you can really reduce our burden by thirty percent, I will be your strongest supporter. If anyone objects, they better be able to do the same to gain my support."
"Mayor Su, are you being truthful? You mentioned that not everyone can enjoy this benefit. Who are these people? What do we need to do to gain this benefit? Do you need us to risk our lives for you?"
Su Yu was blunt in his reply, "So what if you have to take some risks? Do you expect me to help you for free? Why should I? I don't enjoy listening to such stupidity. No matter the endeavor, what you receive will always be proportional to your efforts. If you wish to take without giving, you are free to opt out of the alliance. This is the Allheaven Battlefield. All of you have been around for a while. Are you still dreaming of reaping without sowing? Are we children here for games?"
Didn't he proclaim himself a child just moments ago? Had he forgotten? Some of the mayors resisted the urge to blurt these words out. He was shameless enough that arguing against him was essentially pointless.
Su Yu said, "It is normal to risk yourself to gain something valuable. Stop dreaming about benefiting without doing anything. As for who those people are, we can talk about it in private. There is no need to inform the myriad races and give them the opportunity to meddle in our affairs.
"Thirdly, with an alliance, we can fight for things we didn't have before this. For example, we can fight for some Luminous Domain Mansion slots. It matters not if we're using these slots ourselves. It only matters that the myriad races must concede some slots to us. Fractured, what can any of us do if the myriad races refuse to share the slots with us? I doubt any of you are uninterested in the Luminous Domain Mansion. Even a living dead can enter the mansion to fight for more opportunities."
At that, an Invincible interrupted, "That won't be as easy as you think. Su Yu, stop dreaming."
Su Yu laughed, "Yes. It won't be easy. It doesn't matter. The ancient cities lack a lot of things, but we have no lack of dying individuals. And dying individuals can be a lot more courageous than you imagine. Why should we fear your threats?"
Su Yu did not deign to say more to the Invincible. He continued addressing the mayors, "Fourthly, I am still an elder of the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion. I have reached an agreement with the department heads. For the right price, I can even purchase some carrier treasures from the pavilion. I will do my best to help my fellow mayors become Pseudo Invincibles or even Invincibles. Of course, I'm not rich enough to buy these carrier treasures for you, so you'll need to come up with the money yourself. I'll only facilitate the transactions."
At that, numerous gazes landed on a faceless elder in the sky. The elder was left quite speechless. As far as he knew, Su Yu had indeed reached an agreement with the heads. He was now an elder of the pavilion. But what Su Yu spoke differed slightly from what he knew.
