Chapter 488: Mister X’s Sincerity
This question was absolutely crafty enough – Mister X was challenged in his answer . If he answered that, they would be able to replace .
Since Onishi was now joining and would be able to directly replace September Night Rain, then after if there were others better than Onishi joining, would they directly replace Onishi?
That way, what would be the point of joining such a guild?
If they would not be able to replace him, then why would Onishi, with the identity of a top-notch star player, join a second-tier guild to be a spare tire – then why wouldn’t he join the Nine Star Guild if he wanted to .
……
If they were typical people, they would only be able to think of a way to change the topic with an awkward expression at this time .
However, hearing this, Mister X smiled sheepishly as he replied .
“Miss Phoenix, this question is really hard to answer . Perhaps you aren’t quite sure about the situation in the September Guild now . Due to the news of Night Rain’s failure in the Agent Hidden Profession transfer mission half a month ago being released onto the forum, it had resulted in much of a drop in his popularity now . Luckily, the guild has an extremely important plan to be carried out right now . Considering this situation, we will work hard to help him recover his popularity as we share some of his stressful problems regarding finding new people to join the guild as we’ve discussed with him before . In fact, other than to get this evolution solution capable of awakening Force, naming a huge price this time was also out of the consideration for this reason . ” Mister X’s words were said nicely though essentially it was actually not considered a positive reply .
With September Night Rain’s personality, his face would probably be dark upon knowing this news .

At least it sounded like the September Guild was not considered to have owed September Night Rain in this aspect – resulting in September Night Rain losing his position was still the problem of his popularity .
Looking back on the problem of popularity, it was because of the “Agent Hidden Mission failure” half a month ago .
“Agent Hidden Mission…” It had to be said, hearing Mister X say this term, other than Feng Luo who had long known September Night Rain’s situation, the remaining three people instantly changed in expression .
This change was caught by Mister X, and his eyes revealed a look of having confirmed something .
“Miss Phoenix, you’ve asked me a few questions, could I dare to ask you a question too?” Just when Phoenix did not continue speaking for a moment due to the shock, Mister X smiled as he turned from passive to active and said .
“Of course…” Phoenix regained her smile, but her eyes revealed a slight, unobvious sense of caution .
“I would like to ask if Miss Phoenix also participated in the Agent transfer mission, and if you’ve obtained victory in the end, and successfully transferred?” Indeed, Mister X’s question was not tricky but was a little beyond expectation .
“Mister X, are you specialized in investigating a small person like me, I thought you’d only look up Onishi’s information?” Phoenix was still smiling, but her tone had turned a little cold .
“Apologies, please don’t misunderstand…I did not let people from the Hounds specially investigate but saw it from Miss Phoenix’s attire . Such Rare equipment as the Red Lotus set has less than five complete sets in the entire game, and together with what September Night Rain had said previously about the group of those few opponents at the end of the battle, I made the daring guess . ” For the third time, Mister X made an apology .
However, Phoenix’s answer had absolutely confirmed his question . Mister X immediately turned towards Onishi and Big Pineapple’s direction .

“If I had not guessed wrongly, you all should’ve completed the transfer mission and have transferred to the Agent hidden profession . Especially that top-notch Sniper who had eliminated Night in the transfer mission, I think that should be Mister Feng, right . ” At last, Mister X’s gaze landed on Feng Luo as he spoke with a serious expression .
“Mister Feng, I truly and sincerely invite you to join us at September . I can represent the guild’s higher-ups to decide that no matter whether it’s you or your members, you’d enjoy top star player treatment upon joining . Furthermore, the guild will not restrict your normal game activity and missions, you just have to be able to accommodate with the guild to do some propaganda when necessary . ”
This Mister X was still really something else .
Guessing that they were the people who had passed the Agent investigation just according to the eye-catching Red Lotus set Phoenix was wearing and by linking up the few of their professions with their actions .
It was not hard to understand why Mister X was willing to spend such a huge sum and speaking straight to give all four of them the most top-grade star player treatment .
After all, for four Hidden Profession players, the same type of hidden players, it was impossible to find a second group in the game currently .
Once it was exposed, it was in itself hot news capable of hitting some players’ G-spot, and the viewing level was, as a result, able to attract and would extremely like to be those of the most top-notch star players .
This was just like those solo-developing stars, still not as famous as some groups to a certain extent, especially in this group, where there was such a top-notch player as Onishi – it was rich in sellability .
Saying it like that, he was clearly still misguided by Phoenix saying previously that Onishi was the “vice-captain . ”
Phoenix’s previous “vice-captain” was indeed deliberate – it was in itself meant to test how sincere Mister X was, and to seize the opportunity to gain an active stance herself in the conversation .
After all, if such a player as Onishi was “vice-captain,” then their small team clearly still had someone who was better than Onishi .
And whether to join, the key was to see if Mister X could raise the stakes .
However, this had misguided Mister X to treat Feng Luo as the one in the few of them with the most right to make decisions based on his own judgement, moving his target of persuasion to Feng Luo .
“Mister Feng, perhaps you’re worried that Night would have an estrangement with you due to the matter of the Agent profession transfer mission . Please be assured, I guarantee that he won’t have any conflict with you all because of this matter . Everyone else doesn’t need to be worried about being restricted because of joining the guild either . We can write it out on the contract that you all are free to do your own thing . To enjoy the right, you only have to take up a bit of propaganda duties…” It seemed like Mister X really did not know of what had happened at the underground ruins the day before .
If not, treating Feng Luo as the decision-maker, he definitely would have stressed on this point, instead of continuing to use alluring conditions to rope them in .
“I’m sorry, Mister X, I actually don’t have much prejudice against you all at the September Guild . It’s just as I said before, I don’t have the intention of joining a guild at the moment, my apologies . ” Feng Luo shook his head, rejecting for the second time .
