Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 1247: Leave a Way Out
It is unknown how many auctions the Deep and Shallow Devil has held so far. Basically, it is held once a year, but Alyssa is unlikely to come every year. Even her grandfather, Mr. James, a frequent visitor, basically only comes every two or three years.

However, this place is very clear about how people are treated differently. Your status here does not only depend on how much money you have, but also on your influence in the outside world.

A great hero-level figure like Mr. James from the Whirlpool Federation is the most distinguished guest in the eyes of the Deep Diving Devil. It doesn't matter if he has no money, because his reputation is much more valuable than just gold coins.

"Please take a seat. The auction will probably not start for some time."

Alyssa noticed that there were not many people coming down, which meant that they came too early and might have to wait for several hours.

She sat down on the sofa without hesitation, picked up the bottle of wine in the ice bucket on the coffee table and took a look:

"Alan Starlink's fine wine, Deep Diving Devil's taste is still as good as ever."

Fang Lanyin's hometown, Alan Starlink, only recently started growing grapes. Although the wine is of excellent quality, it is not very famous. For now, only top gourmets know about it.

This is also why Fang Lanyin felt that the wine from Kexing City was just swill. She had been spoiled by fine wine since she was a child.

Speaking of Fang Lanyin, she finally asked the question she had always wanted to ask:

"Boss, do you have a grudge against that guy named Cindy?"

"I don't think there's any hatred, but I don't know what he thinks."

Alyssa shrugged and explained:

"Cindy is a nouveau riche who has only appeared in recent years. I remember that he made his fortune by reselling minerals. He has been trying to find a way to enter the real upper class society to stabilize his business. But as you know, every circle has its own entry threshold. Nouveau riche like Cindy are not welcome, so he is particularly keen on the auctions of Deep Diving Devil, relying on rare collections to open the door to the upper class."

Alyssa handed the bottle to Sofia, who didn't use a corkscrew at all. She pulled the cork out with her bare hands, put it to her nose and sniffed it, then went to get the glass with a smile on her face.

That's just what she likes.

Alyssa continued:
"In the past, this guy targeted artifacts with a long history. But my grandfather and I also like artifacts. He couldn't compete with us, so he chose to change to more perverted biological collections. Don't be fooled by his powerful words. In fact, he should not pose a threat to us."

As she spoke, Alyssa looked at Eunice who was sitting on the side:
"The premise is that our target is not some biological collection."

She was taking the opportunity to point out Eunice. Now that we're here, it's time to let us know what we're looking for, right?
Eunice has remained tight-lipped about this matter and has not revealed a single word.

Eunice, who was called, shrugged:

"I just know it might be on the list, but I'm not 100% sure, and I can't say what it is unless I see it."

Alyssa thought about it:

"The royalists asked you to sign a magical contract?"

"Yes, the most severe magical contract."

No wonder she didn't say a word. If it was due to the influence of the contract, then that would explain it.

After all, there was no need to hide what they were looking for from Alyssa. All they could say was that this thing was extremely important to the royalists, so important that no news of it could leak out, especially to the Republic government, otherwise it would be very troublesome.

Eunice has a cooperative relationship with the royalists, but cooperation also has its prerequisites. The royalists cannot completely trust Eunice as an intelligence dealer. Who knows whether she will sell this matter in order to make a fortune.

"Are there bathrooms?"

“Of course.” Alyssa pointed to the door on the other side. After Eunice went in and confirmed that she could not hear any noise outside, Alyssa said to the others:

"I still don't trust her, and the things the royalists are looking for are probably what the Republic government is looking for. I have a feeling something might go wrong at this auction, so you all should be careful."

No one can trust an information dealer with confidence. This has nothing to do with whether or not a magic contract is signed. There are many ways to circumvent the contract through word games.

The best and most reassuring way to cooperate with intelligence dealers is to take money. You give me the information and I give you the money, and we both get through it.

Alyssa reached out and knocked on the coffee table, and a cylindrical object rose up, and a screen appeared on one side of the column.

This is a terminal. You can use it to contact the Deep Devil's waiter if you need anything.

Alyssa looked back at Long, and Long shook his head tacitly:

"As usual, I found no hidden cameras."

It was easy to deal with since no one was monitoring her. Alyssa took out the boot disk from her arms and placed it on the terminal.

A few seconds later, the words 'Initialization of the creative machine. Divine crystal completed' appeared on the terminal.

“Can you take over?”

"Don't worry, I'm trying."

Li Chengxi said, and then added:
"Don't tell me, this damn place is pretty big."

With this sentence as a basis, Alyssa felt relieved.

No matter what Eunice is looking for, or whether anyone will come out to cause trouble in the process, as long as Li Chengxi controls the Deep Devil's facilities through the terminal, this is Alyssa's biggest trump card, which can help everyone escape even in the worst case scenario.

Alyssa was willing to come, not because of her friendship with Eunice, but because after helping the royalists, they would cooperate with the Whirlwater Federation to attack the Red Maple Republic fleet. After this matter was over, there would be a more important battle waiting.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

The Deep Diving Devil is located under the water more than ten kilometers below the ice. Everyone who comes in will be searched to ensure that they are not carrying any dangerous goods or weapons. Even people with supernatural powers such as psychics are not allowed in to ensure that the staff can control the situation.

This sounds safe, but on the other hand, the Deep Devil is also a huge cage. As long as the elevator is blocked, no one can walk out of here alive.

In the past, Alyssa didn't have to worry about this problem. After all, Deep Diving Devil had a good reputation, and Alyssa had always come as a pure guest. The situation was still stable at the time, so she didn't have to think too much about it.

But now it is different. The number one and number two on the Star Alliance have started fighting. The ripples caused by the fight between the giants have a fatal impact on not only individuals but also various organizations.

The Deep Diving Devil is doing this at this time, and on the border between the Red Maple Republic and the Whirlwater Federation. I always feel unsure.

Alyssa vaguely felt that something might go wrong with this auction, and it would be better to be prepared early than to be at a loss when something really went wrong.

From this we can see that although Alyssa always thinks that Li Chengxi's unauthorized actions give her a headache, she also relies very much on Li Chengxi's help.

——Why do I feel like I am saying one thing but doing another.
