The fishy sea breeze blew up waves, and the ferry carrying food, fresh water, medicine and other supplies sailed smoothly.
The ferry captain Raul stood in the cab somewhat absent-mindedly, letting his first officer drive the ship.
His eyes looked at the small room outside the cab from time to time.
There, it was originally his captain's cabin.
But now he gave it to someone else.
Willingly.
There is no coercion.
Because, he knows why these people boarded his ship!
Thinking that these people were going to the island to solve that special trouble, Raul couldn't help trembling.
As a man living at sea, Raul has seen too many things that cannot be explained by science.
Therefore, he is in awe of some things and things.
It naturally includes people who solve these things and things.
…
"Ferry? A very nostalgic means of transportation!"
A cigar in his mouth, a shirtless man with muscular muscles leaning on a backpack that was as tall as a person, grinning loudly.
And this was the first person Kieran saw and the first words he heard after the sense of weightlessness and the glare disappeared.
Qin Ran looked around without any trace.
The sound of the waves and the clearly visible waves outside the window all indicated that he was on a boat.
And the crowded people in the not-so-spacious room in front of him were his teammates this time.
Except for the strong man who spoke first, the remaining four people also have very obvious features—although all of them have some changes and cover-ups on their faces, some features cannot be concealed.
Standing directly opposite Qin Ran was a young man with a slightly pale face who was dressed gorgeously and maintained his so-called 'grace' while sitting there.
Beside the young man stood two well-armed, strong men, standing there straight, with solemn faces and vigilant expressions, especially the shields that were half the height of a man in their hands, even more so. It was to attract Kieran's attention.
The positions of the two were obviously protecting the gorgeously dressed young man at all times.
From this, the identities of the three are naturally obvious.
The gorgeously dressed young man should be the employer this time: Steinbeck.
The remaining two should be No. 1 who was the spokesperson of the other party before, and the remaining one should be No. 2.
As for the identities of the two
A concise nickname and a protective gesture at all times.
Apart from bodyguards, Kieran couldn't think of other possibilities.
Beside the three of them, there was a lean, strong, well-proportioned young man with an ordinary appearance.
This person obviously noticed Qin Ran's scrutiny, and immediately showed a simple smile, looking very simple and honest, but Qin Ran noticed that there was something hidden in the other's eyes.
It is definitely not as harmless as it appears.
"If it's not for special skills!"
"Then...perception is at least d!"
Qin Ran tried his best to look at it from the corner of his eye, but he was still spotted by the other party.
It is enough to prove the extraordinaryness of the other party.
At least much stronger than the three people beside the opponent.
Even if one of them has experienced more dungeons than the other, the remaining two are fully armed.
So, of the remaining two... who is lawless
After excluding the three of them, Kieran's eyes scanned the shirtless burly man with a cigar in his mouth and the ordinary-looking young man.
This time, Qin Ran didn't hide his gaze.
Everyone present could easily see Qin Ran's glance.
With Qin Ran's understanding of lawlessness, that guy will definitely stand up.
And the fact is just as Qin Ran guessed.
next moment-
"I am the captain this time, lawless!"
"This is my eighth copy!"
"2567?"
The burly shirtless man with a cigar in his mouth took a step forward and looked at Qin Ran with a bold smile on his rough face.
"Hmm! 2567, the second copy!"
Qin Ran nodded with a smile.
The shirtless brawny man is lawless, which did not surprise Qin Ran. In fact, after the other party opened his mouth directly, Qin Ran tended to think that the other party would be lawless. is too consistent.
"2567, you are younger than you think!"
"The strength is also stronger than I imagined!"
"The artisan has always said that you are very lucky!"
"I hope this time will bring me good luck!"
"What I lack the most is luck!"
The next moment, the other party's chatter made Qin Ran confirm it even more.
The other party is lawless, even though his face is rough and wild, he is tall and strong.
"I'm Zhang Wei, this is my fourth copy!"
The young man with a very simple and honest appearance followed the lawless words and introduced himself.
"No. 1! The third copy"
"Number 2! The second copy"
"I'm Steinbeck, this is my fifth copy, please everyone!"
Then, the remaining three introduced themselves in turn.
When it was Steinbeck's turn, the gorgeously dressed employer stood up, with his legs straight and his upper body slightly bent, but the angle did not exceed 20°. The whole process was meticulous, but without deliberation, and he looked personable.
And this simple, seemingly casual etiquette once again showed the other party's extraordinary background.
"Steinbeck, we all do things for money!"
"There's no need to be so polite!"
Lawless, apparently not the first to be hired by Steinbeck, puts it bluntly. .
"I'm used to such etiquette!"
"I guess... I can't change it in this life!"
Steinbeck shook his head with a wry smile.
Facing the wry smile of his employer, Lawless shrugged.
Everyone's personality is different.
The so-called persistence is also different.
Lawlessness did not change Steinbeck's mind.
Not to mention that the two are simply employers and mercenaries.
Even if it is a friend, lawlessness will agree with the friend's choice.
"cough!"
Lawless coughed lightly, and after attracting the attention of everyone present, he began to ask as the captain: "What do you guys think of this mission?"
Immediately, everyone looked solemn.
The adjective 'extremely abnormal phenomenon' not only brought bad associations to Qin Ran.
The same goes for everyone else.
"I, No. 1, and No. 2 are completely incapable of dealing with the 'extremely abnormal phenomenon'!"
Steinbeck first confessed his own shortcomings.
"If it's a monster with a body, I can show my full strength!"
"But if it's a ghost or something, I can deal with ordinary ghosts, but I can't deal with ghosts!"
Zhang Wei also did not hide his ability tendency.
However, the specific data will naturally not be exported.
"What about 2567?"
Lawless looked at Qin Ran.
"My combat ability is relatively balanced. I can deal with those with entities and those without entities! But I can't deal with those that are too powerful!"
Qin Ran half-truthfully revealed his own abilities and tendencies.
After all, Qin Ran couldn't trust the people present, except for being lawless.
What's more, Qin Ran didn't believe that everyone else was telling the truth.
At least, Steinbeck didn't!
With the opponent's 'financial resources', when entering such a dungeon, various extreme situations must be considered, and it is impossible to be unprepared.
However, even such half-truths and half-false words attracted the attention of all players present except Lawless.
"As expected of being introduced by the 'Broker', even the level of the second dungeon cannot be underestimated!"
Steinbeck sighed.
Zhang Wei on the side was also surprised.
However, there was no doubt at all.
Because, before entering this team, he knew that this team was organized by 'brokers'.
The golden signboard of 'Broker' is enough to convince people.
What's more, beside him was a lawless man who seemed to be familiar with Qin Ran.
Zhang Wei trusted the latter's reputation among senior players even more.
He believed that Lawlessness would not strike up a friendship with a man who lied at a mission-critical moment.
After everyone had introduced themselves, Lawless spoke again.
"Under the premise of the fourth dungeon, as long as no special side mission is triggered, no matter whether it is a monster with a physical body or a ghost without a physical body, I can easily deal with it!"
Lawless words carry a sweeping meaning.
However, no one objected.
The opponent who can survive seven copies has such confidence.
And Qin Ran's keen perception found that Steinbeck heaved a sigh of relief after the lawless guarantee, and a tinge of blood appeared on his slightly pale face.
"Before Steinbeck was pale because he was afraid?"
Qin Ran couldn't help but startled.
He was a little surprised by his guess.
However, without more evidence, Qin Ran will not jump to conclusions.
Compared with Steinbeck's relief, Zhang Wei is eager to try.
Obviously, Zhang Wei will never be satisfied with one main task.
The same is true for Kieran.
Even more thorough than Zhang Wei.
What he expects is: At least to meet a monster like the giant crocodile Pruss in the previous dungeon!
Only monsters of this level can get considerable loot!
Lawless looked at the expressions of Qin Ran and Zhang Wei, and grinned.
"According to the rules of the temporary team, don't expect me to wipe your ass!"
"Except for the main mission, I will only complete my side missions and get my share!"
"It's the same with you—whoever pays gets what!"
He reminded them very seriously.
"It should be so!"
Qin Ran answered very simply.
Qin Ran never had the idea of counting on the other party's help.
Because Qin Ran was unwilling to owe favors to anyone.
Qin Ran knew how difficult it was to repay a debt of favor.
"I have no opinion!"
Zhang Wei shrugged.
"Very good, then the first thing we need to do now is to judge the extent of the 'extremely abnormal phenomenon'!"
Lawless nodded in satisfaction, and pointed to the outside of the room.
Although they couldn't see it, the hearing of several people could clearly distinguish the human voice outside.
"My art of speaking is completely incomprehensible to the aborigines!"
"This task has to be handed over to you!"
Lawless was very annoyed, and then looked at the rest of the people.
"I'm fine staying here!"
Steinbeck said so.
Naturally, the two bodyguards would not say anything against it.
After removing the three of them, only Qin Ran and Zhang Wei were left among the players present.
Qin Ran looked at Zhang Wei, who also looked at Qin Ran at the same time.
Both sides are reluctance to back down from the other's eyes.
After all, in addition to understanding information, communicating with the aborigines is more about triggering side missions.
For side tasks that can improve your own evaluation.
No one will give up!
Even if there is only a slight possibility!
Immediately, there was a smell of gunpowder in the narrow captain's room.
