Chapter 231 Money! Life!

Feiqi spread his wings and flew onto the boat and stepped on it gently. The wooden boat full of holes trembled slightly and sank slightly, but it steadily held him. The Styx flowed around the ferry, but the boat was extremely stable and there was no feeling of being in the river at all.
"Don't panic, the shipping of the Styx on the Styx will ensure your safety." The faceless boatman gently pushed the stone trestle with his oar, and the boat slid into the center of the Styx and began to move along the water. Feich noticed that the speed of the boat was slower than the Styx, which was completely different from the merchant ship he had once ridden. He did not see any movement from the boatman, and the boat could turn, slow down, and it was extremely stable.
"Styx Shipping is obliged to introduce our business methods to the first-time customers: if you ask questions, we will quote the price, and we can negotiate the payment method, but we cannot pay the price. Generally, 1 spiritual coin is required for every ten inquiry, and some are of special significance, and the inquiry fee will be quite high. Two of the ten spiritual coins at the beginning can be used as a question. After the transaction is reached, our transaction amount is insurance..."
The faceless ferryman used pure hell language to tell the general trading rules of Styx Shipping, and Fitch listened carefully. Many rules were set up very cleverly. Fitch even suspected that the contract demons participated in the initial drafting work. Simply put, in addition to discussing payment methods, they would charge money when asking questions; information is also a commodity, which will affect the price of the answer; transactions are all conducted on the Styx, including delivery; Styx Shipping has the ability to cross the world, but cross the world only collects fate gold coins and blue standard energy crystals, and does not accept other payment methods...
"Styx Shipping does not provide exchanges for Fate Gold Coins and Blue Standard Energy Crystals, but we have purchased these two things for a long time, and the price is very fair." The faceless ferryer finally finished speaking, then looked at Feiqi quietly, waiting for him to start asking questions (spend money).
"Can you stop the world from destruction?"
The faceless ferryman trembled gently, and then said, "I didn't expect that there would be a devil in hell to ask this question. Styx Shipping does not serve as a savior, and there is nothing else to do except the so-called world destruction at the level of natural disasters on this planet. By the way, this post is free: Styx Shipping does not conflict with gods and god-like existences, including the great lords of hell."
Feiqi stared at the faceless ferryman, a little disappointed. If he could hire someone to save the world, it would definitely be the greatest good deed in the world - almost the same as saving the world himself. It seems that the Styx is not omnipotent, and judging from its answer, this organization cannot destroy the gods. If considering that the collision between the Second World and the Third World space was also planned by the Creator, the Styx will not interfere with this matter.
Sure enough, there is never a savior in the world, and it is not as reliable as a god or an emperor, so I can only do it myself. However, it would be even better if I could solve my own problems before making an evil plan. "My soul and body are separated. Is there any way to make me reunite and become a human?"
"Before answering this question, Styx has a statement." The faceless ferryer lowered his head slightly, and he clenched it very clearly: "Given that the business involving souls is very sensitive and various problems have occurred in the past, Styx did not intend to undertake such business. If we operate your soul, it will inevitably understand your soul through scanning, and this extremely important and private information may be known by others as the insurance amount is broken. The risks in it need to be borne by you."
"I understand. You don't need to operate it. Don't touch my soul. I just ask if there is a way. What is the most feasible way?"
"The safest and most feasible way for you..." The faceless ferryman suddenly stopped talking, his body did not move, and even the gray-black robe outside stopped swinging, quietly becoming like a sculpture. After about ten seconds, it became "lively" again, and the wind blew its hem, and it also blew its answer into Feichi's ears: "This question is worth twenty spiritual coins."
Where does the money come from? It is blown by the strong wind! So it doesn’t hurt to spend it! It’s true! (sad)
"The Desire Demon is a very special devil, formed by the fall of angels. Hell likes creatures like angels to join its camp, so the devil type is produced. However, depravity weakens goodness and increases evil. The sins in it sometimes exceed the amount of turning a inferior demon into a devil, so the extra part will form multiple forms of the devil. Therefore, the best solution is to use your original body as a special form of the devil, so that there is no need to operate your soul at all, and it can completely maintain all the state of your original body. All the secrets and control methods of the desire form are explained in detail in an evil hell book, called "Painted Book". The original book belongs to Asmotils, the Lord of Hell, and there are copies of the Styx shipping, worth 2,500 spiritual coins."
If Feiqi had water in his mouth, he would definitely spray it out in one mouthful. Two thousand five hundred spiritual coins per book? Just knowing the existence of this book requires ten spiritual coins? No, the money must be worth it: "Can you tell me what is about the content in the book? Introduction or summary? Otherwise, I will not have the interest in purchasing!"
"This book is listed as extremely dangerous and evil, and the secrets are absolutely worth this price. I cannot query other information." The faceless ferryer shook his head: "I can only convey this information. The items of Styx and Styx are not owned by me personally, so I cannot view them beyond my authority."
"I understand. Then I only have one question for this book: if I use the "Painted Book" method, can I ensure that I achieved the effect I wanted before? If I can't achieve it, will Styx compensate me for all my efforts due to the error message?"
"Effectiveness is guaranteed. In case of unexpected situations, Styx Shipping shall bear up to the full return compensation."
It seems that there are no rules like the Consumer Rights Protection Law to double the compensation. Feiqi thought about it. Although the multiple forms of Desire Demon are good, he still has to solve the problem of the Fork Road Demon, so he must become a high-level devil, at least at the same level as the Demon Refining Demon. "The next question: I want to advance myself to become a high-level devil no less than the Demon Refining Demon. What is the way to do it?"
"The self-advancement will not work in hell..." The faceless ferryman suddenly stopped halfway, and then became a stagnant state like a sculpture. Feiqi took the opportunity to poke it with the tip of his wings. The clothes could be concave, completely empty inside and without a body. He was about to poke the face of the faceless, but the guy came back to life again, and Feiqi quickly pretended that nothing had happened...
"It's very rare. I received a message that since you have paid to ask "Painted Book" before, this time there is an additional answer to the question. In addition to the answer that the devil in hell cannot advance himself, the other one is "Painted Book".
Very good. In order to promote this "Painted Book", Styx Shipping has definitely spared no effort, but it also focused on Feiqi's weaknesses - or aroused his great interest. According to the knowledge obtained by the Desire Demon, all devils need to be promoted to the rituals themselves. This devil must generally be of high level, preferably by the Demon Refining Demon. However, the Contract Demon is quite special. You can use the Contract to perform the rituals in some cases and convert the target into a devil with no higher class than your own.
This creates an embarrassing situation: Feiqi's superior Demon King Yama is himself, and his method to improve himself is to enhance the magic array, but this method is very unstable. The last time he took off the contract demon and re-transformed the demon, if the pit sword had not rushed over and "give him the power", he would have almost become a inferior demon. The general direction of the devil version of the enhancement ritual is fine, but there may be too many problems in actual operation, and how many times did he have the chance to experiment with himself? From the desire demon to the deep sacrificial demon, the next mistake may make him doomed, and this is almost inevitable.
Therefore, the "Painting Book" is particularly important. Two thousand five hundred spiritual coins are a huge sum, and two hundred fiqi can afford it. Ten times two hundred fifty will definitely go bankrupt. In this way, there is only one feasible method left: sell things.
“If I hire Styx to sell things as an intermediary, what’s the charge?”
This question directly includes "Can you hire Styx as an intermediary" as a tip for saving money. The faceless ferryer nodded: "Simple intermediary is 10%, and confidential intermediary is 30%.
"Isn't your confidentiality method related to the transaction amount? Why do you have to charge an extra fee?"
"Because in this process you did not sell the things to Styx, and we will handle them. The 20% excess of the confidentiality middleman can increase the insurance amount to twice the total value of the reselling thing."
"I understand. I'm making a request now." Feiqi said after a while, "I want Styx to find one or more high-level devils, who have the need and desire to attack a world and are willing to pay for the information of the world they attack. I sell the transmission coordinates and transmission keys of that world to it or them through Styx."
"This is a very complicated transaction, essentially a consignment, but there is always no shortage of devils interested in directly seizing a world. In principle, Styx Shipping accepts this commission, please pay one hundred spirit coins first, which will be deducted from the final confidentiality fee." The faceless ferryer stretched out his skeleton hand and turned into a broken sea bowl out of thin air. Feiqi suddenly understood that the major shareholder of Styx Shipping is probably the Beggars and Cao Gangs. Pay the money...
"Styx Shipping needs to evaluate the consignment information. Can you introduce that world from the perspective of the devil's interest? Remember, the information you provide will be verified by Styx Shipping, and false information will affect the price."
"That world has many lives, a complete ecosystem, its own civilization, and a huge number of souls. Currently, the world prohibits external teleportation. I happen to have a rune key and have verified it myself. In addition to the soul, what else will the devil be interested in..." Feiqi thought for a while and said, "Oh, there is a Creation God in that world, but it has suffered heavy damage recently and split into pieces, which should be in a state similar to a clone individual."
“This information is very useful.”
There was a tremor in the originally gentle voice of the Faceless Ferryer. Despite trying hard to hide it, it was still keenly captured by Feiqi. "What is the current estimate? What kind of information do you need?"
"According to environmental information alone - on the premise that it can be verified - the rating of this world is B. If the Creator God is indeed severely damaged and shattered his clone, for the devil, this unexpected situation will make the rating jump directly to A. Therefore, the total evaluation price of the above information plus the transmission coordinates and the passing key is from 1,000 spiritual coins, which means you can get at least 700. Other information includes the civilization form of that world, the highest combat power and average development level, as well as the species structure, etc. - but the evaluation price that can be increased by this information is limited. Styx will conduct the evaluation itself and increase the transaction volume as much as possible on the basis of no less than 1,000 spiritual coins."
"One thousand spirit coins, this price is a bit low, but I can barely accept it." Feiqi calculated that if he bought 700 spirit coins, at least the "Painted Book" would be available. He became a high-level devil and then suppressed the fork-way demon (at least not suppressed), and the plan to terminate all hidden contracts between the two parties would be more secure. "How long does it take for the transaction of Styx shipping? I want to get the "Painted Book" as soon as possible."
"The assessment takes thirty minutes, and after that, you can take 700 spirit coins first. After the transaction is completed, we will find a way to transfer other benefits to you. Or you pay 1,800 spirit coins and we will give you the drawing book. This is all OK." The faceless ferryer said: "Remind that ten questions have been completed, and the individual paid questions are not counted. The remaining questions need to be charged an additional fee."
"Start the evaluation, this is the coordinate information and key runes. The calculation method of keys is like this..."
Feiqi was on the Styx, and through the faceless ferryman, he opened the door to the second world for the devil. What he said was just a few simple lines of runes, neither the detailed description of the sound and emotion, nor the touching emotions, but it made Feiqi feel very heavy. After he finished speaking, he immediately felt his heart began to pound and his breath became rapid. It seemed that there was great pressure coming from all directions. She was a little nervous, but in just a moment, his female white-winged demon-like form recovered.
"You can cancel this commission within half an hour, but we will not return the commission fee of 100 spirit coins." The faceless ferryman looked at Fitch with the black void, his voice feeling emotionless: "Are you okay? Please don't be too nervous. What you are going through is just a process of concentrated hell favors. If you don't have the corresponding method of collecting these hell favors will gradually disappear after a period of time. So why not recommend it... It's okay."
Feiqi was surprised by the sudden interruption of the faceless ferryman. He spent four more spiritual coins to ask questions - and then he said after deducting them. "I noticed that you have absorbed all these good feelings. Now the evil light on you is dazzling. I think you have a smooth road ahead of you to advance to the higher devil."
It's less than half an hour, and there's actually a chance to withdraw. Feiqi thought about it and then shook his head. He won't lie to himself in this matter. He has made up his mind that there will only be waiting in this half hour, and there will be no withdrawal.
So he sat down, sat quietly on the boat gang, watching the flowing River Styx, waiting for time to pass by seconds. The evil aura was still gathering towards him, and there was also some information about hell, as if he had suddenly become enlightened. He was sure that he could advance at any time, and his superior devil would be very happy to directly promote him to the bone demon. If he paid some spiritual coins, he could even become a high-level ice demon. The favorable impression of hell would ensure that he successfully advanced.
But he did not have a real upper-level devil presided over the ceremony, and for the sake of the Painting Book, he also had to maintain the state of the Demon of Desire. More information came in, including how to make his evil light awe-inspiring, or to gather it in a low-key manner. This evil aura is a special medal that he only rewards for doing very important evil deeds, completely surpassing the level of evil represented by his own class, and hell. A Desire Demon has limited ability and was originally impossible to knock on a world portal and find out the state information of the Creator God in the world. World-level evil deeds are things that the devils near the Demon of Deep Demon have "responsibilities and abilities".
Half an hour later, the faceless ferryer was stunned for a moment and after recovery, he said to Feiqi: "It has been confirmed that it has been completed, and this commission has been officially accepted. Should you want the spiritual coins, or will you continue to pay the spiritual coins to purchase the Painted Book."
"The Book of Paintings." Feiqi threw out a large handful of spirit coins, sighing in his heart that the money came and went quickly. The faceless ferryman bowed slightly, expressing that he was very happy to serve customers like Feiqi, and hoped that he could take more care of the business of the Styx shipping after he advanced. After another fifteen minutes, there was a thick fog on the Styx River. There was a ferryman coming out, and there was actually a more broken single-wood boat under his feet.
The new guy hung seven bags around his waist. It took out a white cover book from one of them and handed it to his colleagues. Then, without saying a word, summoned a thick fog at the bow of the ship, and crawled in and disappeared. "For this, this is a copy of the Painted Book. Although it is a copy, the content and power are exactly the same. Only the devil can read it, and only you can read it. There is no doubt that you can use the knowledge inside, but the risk that may be caused by spreading this knowledge is your own responsibility, and the Shipping of the Styx has nothing to do with it."
"Painted Book" is very thick, about 30% more than "Cihai (Index Book). The white cover of the book is a material similar to human skin, warm, soft, smooth and delicate, and it feels very much like stroking a real person when touching a real person. A thick belt tied the book, and a golden buckle was fixed on the part of the cover. Feiqi pressed the golden buckle and felt a pain in his fingers, and a drop of blood was absorbed by the gold. Then, he felt that the book had become a part of his body, like a wing or a finger behind it. No, to be precise, the skin of this book is his skin, which can be fused in at any time and summoned at any time.
The belt was unbuttoned and the book could be read. However, before Fitch opened, the faceless ferryer said, "Please don't read this book in front of me, it's not part of the deal."
Feiqi nodded and tried to put the book away. It then buckled the strap on itself and disappeared from his hands. In various forms, Feiqi could summon the book again, just as the Desire could use the power of hell to shape the flamed longbow (replaced by the pit sword) and the entangled rope (replaced by the hair).
"You can ask questions about the spiritual coins you paid before. If there is no other thing, please tell me, and you can accumulate it until you ask next time."
Next time? Summoning the Styx shipping will cost more money, Feiqi did not forget this! "I haven't thought about buying and selling things yet, so I'd better ask something. What kind of devil is the heart-turning demon?"
The four spiritual coins he had given to the Faceless Ferryer were directly spent, and Feiqi had to add eighteen more, so he bought the information about the Heart-Changing Demon. It has to be said that the Styx shipping is well-informed, and only some things that the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the Demon of the De
But what did the Demon King get from the Styx shipping? Forget it, it must be a big deal, and the insurance amount (confidential amount) is definitely an astronomical figure, so don't ask.
The heart-turning demon is a high-level top devil directly affiliated with the Demon King himself. In Feiqi's feeling, it is like a top-level inner master around the emperor holding a Shangfang sword and patrolling him under the order. No wonder the deep-saded demon Kurdan would "take care of" himself and be assigned to the siege equipment camp. Well, you can't let it down in the future, and you must continue to maintain your image.
"Well... the last thing, this time." Feiqi was preparing to solve the problems that have been bothering him at once. Even if he didn't know the answer, it would be good to know the price of the answer! "I have seen a black ink-like substance that looks a bit sticky and exists in the soul and soul crystals, and seems to have the ability to shape and transform into other things. Do you know what that is?"
"Two Spirit Coins." The faceless ferryman still had the same official expression. It seems that this information is not very valuable, far less valuable than the secret of the heart demon... Anyway, there are only two spirit coins, so it is good to solve the doubts. Feiqi paid the money, and then watched the faceless ferryman stay silent.
The stagnation lasted a little long this time, and Feiqi even had time to pull out the feather and poked it into its hood. It was true that there was nothing in it, and I don’t know what force it was to support the robe outside. He inserted the feather back, used hell therapy to restore it, pretending that nothing had happened. Suddenly, the faceless ferryman grabbed Feiqi’s wrist with his cold skeleton hand.
A stern voice that was completely different from before said: "You have triggered the highest security alarm. The strike group will arrive in a moment, and the power it has can easily destroy any planet. If you don't want to be accompanied by the strike group, take the strike group to find that black thing. Don't try to hide it, don't stand on the same side as the black matter. If necessary, we will use all our strength, including the rules of time and soul search to find the answer."
"Let me go, isn't Styx shipping guaranteed safety?"
Chapter completed!
