Capítulo 927: Chapter 348 Mask of Personality (6k)_2

Anyway, it’s not my money being spent, so everything should be arranged with the highest standards!

And most importantly, as long as it succeeds in the end, he can receive a Seventh Rank inheritance!

He had once devoured a lord of the same rank, and he knew very well how much gain this could bring.

Having just been promoted to Seventh Rank and being able to harvest a same-rank lord is enough for him to quickly establish himself as a standout at the Seventh Rank!

Even though the two high-level people will take away a large portion, the other’s territory and various lord-exclusive resources cannot be taken away and will be left to him.

With this part, it’s already enough!

Besides, this cooperation is not yet finalized, and all conditions are still negotiable!

“When it comes to the final distribution of benefits, I need to take at least fifty percent of those resources!”

The Mech Lord opened his mouth and immediately put forward a number that made people frown.

“That’s impossible, don’t push your luck, we’re not limited to just choosing you!

In the end, only the resources that can be taken away can participate in the distribution. Don’t think I don’t know the special nature of you lords. Those remaining territories are equally valuable to you!

You can get an extra twenty percent at most from the resources!”

Madison calmly stated. Before he came, he specifically asked Leia to gather intelligence about the lords and had already gained some understanding about the contractor profession of the lord.

And now this Mech Lord is clearly asking too much.

However, he was not angry because of this. After all, this is negotiation; only by initially proposing more favorable conditions can both parties have room for negotiation.

“Those territories indeed have value to me, that’s true.

But don’t think I don’t know that the Lord Fan Mao also owns quite a few assets in the Starry Sky, and those things are much more valuable than the territories I could get!

At least forty percent! Otherwise, there’s no deal!”

“But the core of the plan is all on us! Even the power you have is granted by us, you just need to take your men on a trip.

You think you can take forty percent just like that?

We’ll give you at most twenty-five percent…”

“Then let me ask you…”

The Mech Lord didn’t care in the slightest that the other party was many times more powerful than himself, and he wasn’t willing to give an inch on the terms.

Especially when decimal points started appearing in the calculations, the nature of this negotiation had already undergone a slight change.

The arguments between the two continued until half an hour later, and finally, the two sides reached a consensus at a distribution quota of 33.45 percent.

To prevent either side from backing out, a Paradise rules fairness session was specifically conducted for this.

When both parties signed their names, and the contract turned into rules imposed on them, they each bloomed into smiles as if the argument just now had never happened.

“Now that the distribution of benefits is finalized, it’s time to confirm the specific plan.

What is your specific plan?”

The most important distribution of interests has been settled, avoiding potential internal strife down the line. Now everything is settled, and continuing to argue clearly has no meaning.

Compared to continuing to quarrel, the Mech Lord is now more concerned with the plan itself.

Now that the cooperation intention is basically settled, and with the restriction of the rules in place, Madison had no further reason to keep things secret and laid out his entire plan.

The main plan had just been described once. After receiving sufficient reinforcements, he would lead their sponsored fleet and weapons to invade Fan Mao’s core territory, forcing Fan Mao to return for aid.

Meanwhile, the two high-level combatants would hide within the attacking team, waiting for Fan Mao to appear and then capture him.

This repetition was merely to emphasize the various details of mutual coordination, as well as the detailed capability information about the target, Fan Mao.

For instance, how much support they will provide later, how much force they will deploy to press the front, and what contingency plans will be necessary if Fan Mao turns out to be stronger or weaker than expected.

The Mech Lord did not interrupt and listened attentively to the entire plan, thinking it over in his mind.

In the argument just now, he had already calmed down from the excitement brought on by those numbers.

Although it should bring considerable gains this time, he always believed that with great gains comes great risk.

Just now, because of the shocking conditions proposed by the two Pharmacists, he somewhat overlooked this aspect. Now, calming down again and listening to the detailed plan, he suddenly felt a bit worried.

The current plan is still too idealistic.

After all, this is about confronting a Seventh Rank lord, and it’s about taking direct action against the opponent’s stronghold — no amount of caution can ever be too excessive.

Moreover, from the fact that both Pharmacists required him to conduct a feigned attack instead of personally leading forces, there must be a reason — it’s not because they don’t want to, but because they can’t.

And it only takes simple reasoning to conclude that the opposing side likely has the ability to call in a significant amount of advanced combat power, which is why they need him, the lord, for the feigned attack.

Using him, the lord, to create an illusion that it’s not the two Pharmacists making the move.

The Mech Lord felt as if he had guessed the truth, uncovering the real thoughts in the hearts of the two Pharmacists.

“But if that’s the case, this means that Fan Mao’s power might be even greater…

No, following their current plan is not secure enough, we have to drag more people into the mix…”

The Mech Lord pondered, having already formed an idea in his mind:

“I have an idea. Since I have to put on an act, why not make it more realistic? For example, we could recruit some other Paradise contractors to join the attack, pretending that I’m uniting with other contractors within Paradise for the operation.
