321: Trade with Wolf Mother

Chapter 320: Trading with the Wolf Mother

Having lived for a hundred lifetimes, Dick had been in various organizations, seen various systems, and played various "games."

Naturally, he was very good at exploiting loopholes in rules.

The goal of this Elite assessment was to collect one hundred snow wolf's fangs.

Although the guild explicitly prohibited buying them with money according to the rules, it didn't prohibit trading with Snow Wolves.

Dick remembered clearly that the rules prohibited almost all types of trading partners, but only the Snow Wolf, the main character of this task, was omitted.

It's estimated that even the guild didn't expect someone could make a Snow Wolf willingly hand over its canine teeth.

After all, canine teeth were important weapons for hunting, and could be considered a Snow Wolf's lifeblood!

After dinner, Dick summoned Mina, Alice, Xiao Nai, and Cecilia for a mission briefing on the [snow wolf's fang].

Fama and Adolf, the examiners, were present as observers.

Everyone thought Dick would postpone the departure time, as the blizzard was still raging with no sign of stopping.

However, Dick dropped a bombshell: he planned to go to the Lamos Mountains and trade with the Snow Wolves!

The women had absolute trust in Dick, so they didn't say much, but Fama and Adolf, who were observing, couldn't sit still.

"Nonsense, this is simply nonsense!"

Fama frowned at Dick, his shriveled old face full of displeasure.

"Dick, my little friend, you should reconsider this plan. Impulsiveness is the devil..." Adolf advised with a bitter face from the side.

Trading with bloodthirsty and violent Beasts was simply sensational. Even those Beast merchants who valued money like their lives rarely had such crazy ideas.

The reason was simple: humans were one of the Snow Wolves' main foods!

And in Fama's view, Dick clearly intended to use him, knowing that he would never let him go to his death!

Dick was an indispensable part of the life extension plan. Without him, Donald and Leon would not give him face at all.

Without Dick as the middleman, let alone the Rite Trial, Fama estimated he couldn't even enter the Snow Goddess Sect's temple.

During this time, Fama also tried to contact Donald, attempting to bypass Dick.

But strangely, Donald was impervious to both soft and hard tactics. No matter what conditions Fama offered, he would be rejected.

Fama even had the illusion that this four-hundred-year-old Elf was like Dick's loyal slave, completely obedient!

"Lord Fama, please calm down," Dick pressed his hand down, explaining, "I'm looking for that Level 69 Wolf Mother. She has already transformed and is the leader of the Snow Wolves in the Lamos Mountains."

Beasts are not incommunicable. Once they reach Level 50, they can transform, and their intelligence will increase significantly, while they will also learn to control their desires.

There is a very famous Snow Wolf in the Eternal Frost Forest named Wolf Mother, who is several hundred years old.

She was once the chief of the strongest Snow Wolf tribe, with exceptional talent. At her peak, she had hundreds of thousands of her kind following her, and her reputation was formidable. It was rumored that she was just a little short of breaking through Level 70!

However, now, the Wolf Mother is old and frail, her combat power has declined sharply, and she can only retreat to the Lamos Mountains, ruling over a group of equally aging Snow Wolves.

Hearing about the Wolf Mother, Fama was stunned for a moment, but soon shook his head and said, "As everyone knows, the Wolf Mother hates humans the most. Going to negotiate business with her is no different from seeking death!"

"That's not necessarily true."

Dick slowly walked to the bed, looked at the flying snow, and sighed softly, "The Lamos Mountains are also one of the hardest-hit areas by this blizzard. How many Snow Wolves do you think will starve to death in a week?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the meeting room looked at each other.

Soon, Alice was the first to react, exclaiming, "Dick, you want to use food to exchange for snow wolf's fangs with the Wolf Mother?"

"Exactly," Dick smiled slightly and looked at Fama, saying, "Even if the Wolf Mother hates humans, she wouldn't kill the savior who provides help in her time of need."

The Lamos Mountains are extremely barren, and the Snow Wolves there are a group of old, weak, sick, and disabled individuals. Even when the weather is good, they often go hungry.

And now, with the blizzard raging, the Snow Wolves have no food stored and cannot go out to hunt. They can only choose to endure hunger in their caves.

It is estimated that by the time the blizzard ends, several tenths of the Snow Wolves in the Lamos Mountains will have died.

As a Level 69 transformed Beast, the Wolf Mother, although cruel and violent, can fully communicate with humans.

Dick had learned about the Wolf Mother. As the leader of the Snow Wolves in the Lamos Mountains, she cared deeply about the lives of her subordinates.

Generally speaking, the Wolf Mother's love for her own kind was as strong as her hatred for humans, but this made her an anomaly among the Snow Wolf race.

The name "Wolf Mother" means the mother of all Snow Wolves!

The Wolf Mother was born infertile, but she treated all Snow Wolves as her own children.

Despite this, the Wolf Mother still ended up with a bleak old age, struggling to survive in the Lamos Mountains. This is the cruel reality of the Snow Wolf race.

Looking at the confident Dick, Fama pursed his lips and said bluntly, "It's easy to say, but in reality, it's very difficult to sit at the negotiating table with the Wolf Mother and communicate peacefully!"

"So many years have passed, and it's not that there haven't been fanciful Beast merchants attempting to do business with transformed wild Beasts..."

"But their endings were surprisingly consistent: they all paid the price of their lives for their recklessness!"

Fama, like a wise elder, earnestly advised Dick, hoping he would immediately abandon this unrealistic idea.

Fama didn't care about Dick's life or death; what Fama cared about was his life extension plan.

After obtaining the sacrificial kiss and successfully extending his life, even if Dick married and had children with that Wolf Mother, Fama wouldn't stop him. He could do whatever he wanted.

Dick nodded lightly at Fama's advice, indicating that he had listened.

"Then let's try another method, or..."

Fama's eyes narrowed as he looked at Dick and said, "Or we could first go and worship at the Snow Maiden temple and ask Vivian-sama for a Blessing. The blizzard might end earlier."

In fact, Fama was the most anxious. His lifespan was limited, and he wanted to undergo the Rite Trial as soon as possible.

Therefore, like Dick, Fama didn't want to wait at Bit Manor until the blizzard ended.

"Haha, let me give it a try. If it really doesn't work, I'll listen to you."

Dick chose not to insist, but gave a middle ground answer, preventing Fama from getting angry.

As one of the examiners and also his own person, with Fama's help, the Elite assessment score would be very stable.

This was also why Dick was not in a hurry to kill him. Anyway, he didn't have long to live, so naturally, he had to maximize Fama's value.

This Level 72 Mage, famous in the Northern region, was still immersed in the beautiful dream of extending his life by several hundred years.

Little did he know that the moment Fama decided to cooperate with Dick, he had already lost everything.

Looking back at the past ninety-nine lifetimes, those who closely cooperated with Dick generally did not have good endings.
