Somewhere in the Crafts Commission, a conflict is brewing between two major factions. Help Jing Yuan and negotiate with the KMM representative to force him to provide the cargo to the inspection.
Yanqing in a dispute with a Corporation employee
Travel to the Crafts Commission with Yanqing and find representatives of the Alliance and the KMM gathered at a cargo container near the dimensional anchor "Secret Wharf". Approach a group of people to intervene in the conversation and offer your services as a skilled negotiator.
How to convince Scott to negotiate
Immediately after the scene at the cargo container, a negotiation mode will start in which you will need to convince Scott, a KMM employee. The outcome of the dialogue depends on the number of enthusiasm points of one of the parties to the dispute. Over the course of four rounds, choose appropriate answers to convince your opponent that you are right. In addition to remarks, in a dispute you can use negotiation strategies located in the upper right corner of the screen:
- Playing on feelings — the number of enthusiasm points (both gained and lost) for the current round will be doubled.
- Significant silence — skipping a round without losing or gaining enthusiasm points.
- tactical retreat — return to the previous round.
To successfully complete the negotiations, you must dial greater than or equal to with the opponent the number of enthusiasm points. If one of the parties receives six points, the dispute will end instantly with the victory of the corresponding participant.
Successfully completing negotiations will grant you the achievement "The Consummate Orator", and their failure - "Power of persuasion".
You can object to Scott's statement, “According to Article 4 of the Trade Agreement between the Xianzhou Alliance and the Interstellar World Corporation, the Alliance and the KMM are prohibited from infringing each other's intellectual property rights” as follows:
- Offer a solution that does not violate the law. — +1 энтузиазм.
- For starters, make him nervous.
- Intimidate him by telling him who Yanqing is.
- Remind him of his shameful past.
In response to “You have no idea how valuable these prototypes from the Guild of Scholars are! If something happens to them, you won’t even pay with your lives!” one might argue:
- Don’t even try to convince, but go straight to threats.
- Convince that everything will be done very carefully.
- Compensation? Here's another!
- The flight commission will pay. — +1 enthusiasm.
To Scott’s question, “If you want to inspect it, why isn’t at least one member of the guild present here?” can answer:
- Put pressure on him with connections.
- Raise the stakes!
- Try to resolve everything according to the laws of Xianzhou. — +1 enthusiasm.
- Try to resolve everything according to the KMM charter.
In the last round, Scott said, “I am an employee of KMM and must comply with the requirements of the corporation. If I make an exception and allow you to inspect the cargo, this will have serious consequences for me,” which can be countered:
- In Xianzhou, too, they only follow the requirements. — +1 enthusiasm.
- Try to bribe him.
- Talk about a bad influence on his career.
- Put your pride aside and beg him.
If you win the dispute, Scott will agree to inspect the cargo, but if you lose, you will have to fight a squad of four KMM Security Officers (vulnerabilities: fire, ice).
How to defeat the Howling Coffin
Regardless of the outcome of the negotiations, a team will arrive at the scene. Lingsha, the new head of the Alchemy Commission. The girl will convince Scott to give access to the contents of the detained cargo container anyway. It turns out that inside is an unusual Borisinets automaton, fueled by a certain biological nerve that attracted the creatures to the Star Skiff Shelter. Touching its body will instantly awaken the robot, which will lead to a battle with an elite enemy.
Only one creature will appear on the battlefield - Howling coffin (vulnerabilities: electrical, wind, imaginary). Its mechanics almost coincide with the abilities of the Borisinites encountered earlier. The Automaton, unlike living creatures, goes into Lunar Beast mode faster due to only 4 levels of Bloodlust.
Reduce the robot's vulnerability scale faster than it can switch to enhanced mode and cause damage to the team to guarantee a quick victory. If your party does not have enough characters of the required attack type, leave the battle by clicking on the pause button in the upper right corner of the screen and configure the group in a new way.
The next task is "Blade Singing Ends War".
