Just when Du Yuqi was embarrassed, someone came to the rescue. There was a light knocking sound outside, and then Boss Moss's voice rang out:

"Someone from the Steel Bear Knights came here and said they want to talk to the White Widow about something."

Yangzi frowned slightly and said:

"Okay, I understand."

…

Needless to say, the Steel Bear Knights came for Major Xia. Why did they know that Major Xia was here? Of course, it was because Yangzi informed them. At the same time, Du Yuqi also knew that Yangzi's nickname was the White Widow.

The person who came to pick up Major Xia was one of the five vice-captains of the Steel Bear Knights, named Lei Ben. He was a man who looked a little gloomy. If he didn't have a terrible centipede-like scar on his face, he could even be called a handsome man.

When Du Yuqi and his companions returned to their residence, they saw Major Xia being carried onto a carriage by two people. After witnessing this scene, Du Yuqi frowned slightly and rushed forward. At this time, the people of the Steel Bear Knights were also in a state of nervousness, and one of them immediately threw a short spear and stabbed at Du Yuqi.

Fortunately, at this time, Jet appeared from nowhere and stood in front of Du Yuqi. He was holding a black shield in his hand and directly knocked the spear away. The shape of this black shield was strange. It was the black scale shield seized from the experimental centaur.

The misunderstanding between the two sides was soon resolved. Du Yuqi then strode forward and asked them to put Major Xia on the ground. Then he said with a very unpleasant expression:

"His spine was seriously injured before, and I finally managed to fix it. But the way you just lifted him up will make him lie in bed for more than half a month. In serious cases, it may even cause him to be paralyzed!"

After hearing Du Yuqi's words, the others were stunned. They all looked at Major Xia with apologetic eyes. The latter also looked quite depressed, but still managed a smile as if nothing had happened and said:

"It's okay. At worst I can just drink a bottle of alchemy potion."

At this time, Lei Ben, the deputy leader of the Steel Bear Knights, came over. He first thanked Du Yuqi and the others for their help and assistance with a stern face, then looked at the shield in Jet's hand and said:

"Where did you get this thing from?"

Du Yuqi said:

"We encountered an enemy experimental subject that was dropped on the battlefield during the day. This guy's combat power was very strong, and it was obviously different from the other mechanical centaurs. So I guess it was used to collect data in actual combat. We disabled one of its arms, so the shield equipped on its arm fell into our hands."

Lei Bendao:

"Can you show me a little?"

Du Yuqi hesitated for a moment. The material of this black scale shield is very special, and the combination and arrangement of its surface also presents a unique pattern. It is precisely because of these two points that its strength is beyond imagination. Although Jet has no skills related to shields, it is also a very good self-defense weapon. However, the other party just said that he wanted to take a look and it was nothing special, so he motioned for Jet to hand it over.

Lei Ben looked at the shield over and over for a long time. It was obvious that he was very interested in it. If it were according to his usual personality, he would just take it away. But at this time, although Lei Ben was lonely and irritable, he could not do such a thing.

This was not only because Du Yuqi and his men had done a favor for the Steel Bear Knights, and if they turned against them now, they would surely be stabbed in the back, but also because Lei Ben had also seen that Du Yuqi and his men were not easy to mess with.

Therefore, he could only hesitate for a moment and then said:

"This shield looks quite unique..."

"So I like it very much, and I think it will be of great use in the future." Du Yuqi immediately said indifferently, blocking Lei Ben's words one step ahead.

At this point, there is no way for the Steel Bear Knights to compromise with the Zero Organization. The hatred between the two sides can be said to be irreconcilable. To translate it into the official language here, the flag of the Steel Bear Knights has been severely tarnished, and only the blood of the enemy can wash it clean.

Since the two sides were destined to be in opposition, Du Yuqi's goal had been achieved, so there was no need to compromise. Moreover, Lei Ben seemed to be a stingy person. He just said a few words of thanks after meeting. We risked our lives to rescue your people from the battlefield, okay? Now you left a few empty words without any substantial reward, and actually came to plot against my precious spoils. Is there any justice in this? Is there any law?

However, Lei Ben obviously did not realize this. On the contrary, his face became a little ugly. He threw the shield back to Du Yuqi, and then said nothing more. He just said to the people behind him:

"Let's go."

After saying that, he really left.

Faced with this situation, Jet seemed quite indignant and spat at the guy's back. The black stick was always good at expressing his anger in the most direct way, but Du Yuqi and Lin seemed somewhat calm. The Steel Bear Knights had been entrenched in Kantwin for so many years, they must be the local tyrants, so if the deputy commander Lei Ben became polite and courteous, then people would have to doubt whether he was fake.

As for the fate of this black-scale shield, Du Yuqi firmly believed that it would belong to the Steel Bear Knights - of course, after they paid a high enough price.

I believe that the Steel Bear Knights have realized that they underestimated the Zero Organization and paid a heavy price for this underestimation. Therefore, knowing yourself and the enemy will ensure victory in a hundred battles. The black scale shield in Du Yuqi's hand is the most convenient and quickest way for them to obtain information about the Zero Organization. First of all, it comes from the experimental subjects that the Zero Organization put on the battlefield, and it is well known that the weapons and equipment on the experimental subjects should be relatively advanced.

Secondly, because there was no defense, the black scale shield might also contain some information that the Zero organization was unwilling to disclose... For a large military organization like the Steel Bear Knights, obtaining this information might allow them to gain the upper hand in the next conflict, or definitely not be so passive. The gains from this shield might save the lives of dozens of elite soldiers, or even decide the outcome of a battle!

Sure enough, less than an hour after Lei Ben left, Du Yuqi and his friends welcomed another visitor.

The visitor had a round face, a smiling face, and a fat body. His huge belly could not even be covered by his robe. He also came in a carriage pulled by four white camels, which was very grand. Fortunately, Du Yuqi and his family had already decided to move to another place, so they were not afraid of attracting other people's attention.

The identity of this visitor was the vice president of the Spice Chamber of Cantwin. The people of the Steel Bear Knights obviously knew that it was most appropriate to leave professional matters to professionals, so they decisively sent out the most business-savvy person they could find.

Among Du Yuqi's group, Jet sold himself to Du Yuqi for a few bags of melon seeds and instant noodles. He definitely couldn't be asked to do such a thing. Du Yuqi had seen how his dear Master Xi shopped in luxury stores on Earth, and that had nothing to do with being thrifty, so he had to give it a try.

As for Lin, can you imagine a prince bargaining and calculating carefully? Please, he should have been taught from childhood how to give things to others, or to make a law to take other people's things into the treasury...

Therefore, in the end, the only person Du Yuqi could ask for help was Yangzi, because this woman gave him the feeling that oil could be squeezed out of stones. Du Yuqi couldn't help feeling sad when he thought of this, because what he had been working tirelessly on before was to marginalize this woman, because he felt that this woman was unreliable, but unfortunately, in fact, her involvement with the team was getting deeper and deeper.

The following negotiations were quite difficult because the vice president showed his great strength in haggling over every penny. Du Yuqi and his team were obviously the suppliers and had enough initiative, but they still felt stuck in a quagmire. Fortunately, Yangzi smiled and confronted them in a tit-for-tat tone at this time, and women always get some privileges in this regard.

Finally, the two sides reached a consensus. After Yangzi took out fifty ounces of Dragon King Ointment and the Black Scale Shield, the vice president finally breathed a sigh of relief, and placed the things he brought on the hard round table made of jujube wood in front of him.

He took out five items in total, and also came with quite detailed instructions.

The first thing was the weightless fragment that Du Yuqi hoped to find. This thing looked very much like a smashed clam shell, with a slightly blue color and a faint glow on it. It was placed in an exquisite wooden box and was pressed down with something, otherwise it would float up automatically.

The second item was a strange card with a cat demon pattern drawn on it. It looked very lifelike, and the material of the card could not be seen. Although it was only the size of a playing card, it was not heavy. The introduction next to it said that this was a strange card called a cat demon card, which contained the soul of a cat demon and could be used to enchant boots, making the jumping ability slightly improved.

The third item was a scroll. It did not look ordinary. There was a faint white light shining on it. Not only that, it felt cold when the fingers touched it. From time to time, a strange sound of cold wind whistling came from it. It was exposed to the air for just a short while, and its surface began to freeze. The condensed ice was as sharp as a blade.
