Hearing the voice behind him, Hao Ren could only shake his head and stand up, and then he saw a small group of soldiers standing more than ten meters away from him, with several small-caliber individual weapons pointed at them.
There were only seven soldiers in this group, and they were all wearing uniform gray-black combat uniforms. Their respective equipment was varied, but what they had in common was that they were all armed to the teeth. But the soldier standing in front of the team who seemed to be the leader was very surprising: it was a girl who was only 16 or 17 years old by visual inspection, and I don't know if it was too immature or really a boy scout. She pointed a light rifle at Hao Ren, her striking gray hair was tied into a single ponytail and thrown behind her head, while the expression on her face was blank—except for the cautious attitude that a soldier must have, Can't see any emotion from her at all.
Hao Ren was surprised that even such a young child had to participate in the war in this place, but after thinking about it, it is not so surprising that there are all kinds of wonders in the world. He opened his hand to indicate that he was not threatening: "I finally saw a living person... Don't be so nervous, I'm just passing by."
"What are you doing there?" The voice of the data terminal sounded in my head, "This machine senses that you are nearby, why don't you come to help?"
"Can't you hear the movement around you?" Hao Ren asked in his mind while observing the small group of soldiers in front of him.
"I don't know what's the problem. The current induction of this machine is very slow," the voice of the data terminal was very frustrated. "I'm afraid there was a problem when the transmission came in this time. Only part of the consciousness of this machine has been transferred to the dream plane. Now The machine is attempting to restart several services."
Hao Ren snorted, and at the same time saw the "Boy Scout" girl in front of her pointing her gun a few times, and several soldiers around her approached from both left and right directions. The girl asked with a straight face: "Report your identity, are you a mercenary or a scavenger, a natural person or a second-generation evolutionary?"
Hao Ren didn't know this, but in order to learn more about the situation on this planet, he still wanted to try to communicate with these people in front of him: "I don't know what you mean - I just passed by here, and I knew there was a war here. won't come."
"Can you still find a place where you don't fight?" A soldier wearing a full-coverage helmet laughed, with a dull echo in his voice. He scanned Hao Ren with some device mounted on his rifle, and turned to report to the gray-haired girl. "Nolan, he seems to be a commoner."
"Civilian?" The grey-haired girl named Nolan finally had an expression on her face. She frowned and came over to check in person. Hao Ren saw a small black device on the other party's glove that shimmered. She used this device I took a picture of this side from two meters away: it seems that it is a more advanced scanner, "There is no combat nerve response... not even the most basic embedded chip?" Nolan looked at Hao Ren in surprise, subconsciously He tightly clenched the rifle in his hand: "A natural person of the ultra-conservative?"
Hao Ren quickly speculated on the meaning of the various terms mentioned by the other party. While thinking of ways to lower the opponent's vigilance: "Then if you say you are a natural person, then you are a natural person, but I don't think I am an extremist..."
No matter which world you go to, extremists are not welcome, at least this is certain.
"Whether you're an extremist or not," Nolan stared into Hao Ren's eyes, "civilians shouldn't be here. But no matter how many mercenaries there are, as long as you know you're not a soldier—this place is not peaceful, so leave now , since you can come in, you should also know how to get out."
As Nolan said, he took the people with him and was about to leave. Hao Ren quickly stopped them when he saw the situation: "Hey wait! Can I go with you?"
A soldier raised his gun slightly. He looked at Hao Ren suspiciously.
Each of them has an almost neurotic vigilance. How long has this war been going on
Hao Ren continued to open his hands to show that there was no hostility. While fabricating an excuse to reasonably contact these mercenaries (judging from Nolan's words, these people are mercenaries): "Everyone who came with me is dead, I can't get out of this ghost place alone."
"We are paid for our work," Nolan pointed to a sign on his chest, "The 'Grey Fox' troops who are innocent and innocent, as long as the price is right, we will deal with anyone. Since you dare to fight in the Rift Valley City activities, you should know the rules of our mercenary business."
Hao Ren felt relieved, and felt that his judgment was right: mercenaries are the most accessible group in the world—as long as you bid appropriately.
This is all learned in the process of dealing with Betsy.
And at that time, Becky also specifically made suggestions in this regard: If you come to a strange world. As long as your words and deeds don't look too suspicious, it is undoubtedly smart to use a group of mercenaries as an entry point. As long as the price is fair and there is no danger or temptation sufficient to turn them back. Mercenaries are the best bodyguards and guides. They don't ask too many questions about their employers, and as long as their employers don't hold back, they are willing to answer many questions. It's still the same sentence: as long as the price is right.
Of course, the premise is that these mercenaries should have some professional ethics.
Hao Ren spread out his hands: "I don't have cash if you want it, can I do anything else?"
"Jewelry? Gold?" Nolan looked Hao Ren up and down strangely, "Rich people who escaped? Well, that's fine, but those things are more troublesome to deal with. You have to give me a satisfactory amount."
Hao Ren immediately pretended to take out his pocket, fumbled in his trouser pocket and threw a gold nugget over: it was picked up from the planet Tanagus.
Nolan and her soldiers were stunned, and a group of people stared at Hao Ren. The soldier who had completely hidden his face under his helmet couldn't help but said, "You... came out with half a catty of gold bricks in your pocket. shake?!"
After Hao Ren was reminded by the other party, he suddenly realized that his behavior was not normal: he didn't even carry a wallet with him when he went out, but he ran around with half a catty of gold bricks in his pocket. thing…
But at this time, he couldn't explain it anymore, so he could only bite the bullet and nod: "My situation is complicated, and it's hard to explain it to you. You can just say this number is okay."
Nolan nodded, but immediately raised his gun: "I don't know if you really lack common sense or what... You said that it would be more appropriate for us to kill you directly and then take your gold?"
The surrounding mercenaries let out all kinds of strange laughter, and several of them had already raised their guns.
Hao Ren thought of this classic plot when he took out the gold, but he didn't expect the development of things to be so uninspired: "Then shoot, I guess you will find the door to the new world after the gun goes off. But Let me say one more thing, you guys are so uncreative.”
"Aren't you really afraid?" Nolan stared, and then put the gun down with a twist of his mouth, "Tch, it's meaningless to tease. Let's go, as I said, we are 'grey foxes' who are innocent and innocent, you You and your gold are safe. But you won't be so lucky if you meet another mercenary—unwitted Mr. Rich."
This time it was Hao Ren's turn to be surprised, but these mercenaries were very lucky to maintain their principles under such circumstances, both for Hao Ren and for them.
It was only at this time that Nolan began to carefully examine the gold nugget in her hand, because normal people would not carry such a piece of gold as travel expenses, so her first reaction was that it was a fake. But after examining it, she found that the gold was real, just in a strange condition: "Why are there so many tooth marks on it?"
Hao Ren thought about it, and felt that he couldn't admit that this was the mark left by his dog girl grinding his teeth...
Several mercenaries turned around and were about to leave. Nolan gestured for his new employer to follow, but Hao Ren suddenly remembered something and quickly called out: "Wait a minute! I still have something left, It's around here."
Nolan showed an impatient expression: "Hurry up, don't delay."
Hao Ren waved his hand, followed the signal from the data terminal and ran to a ruin more than ten meters away, and the mercenaries followed curiously.
Some collapsed construction waste was piled up on the ground in a haphazard manner. Judging from the nearby bomb craters with residual heat, it was bombed and collapsed not long ago. Hao Ren felt that the signal from the data terminal came from below: That guy really found a good place to land.
Hao Ren bent down to remove the cement fragments, and Nolan asked next to him, "Is the thing you're looking for buried under here?"
Hao Ren hummed, and tried his best to maintain the strength and speed that normal humans should have to dig in the ruins. There were two kind-hearted mercenaries beside him, who also stepped forward to help. Soon the ruins were cleared and a big hole was opened, and the signal of the data terminal was in sight.
However, Hao Ren was stunned looking at the situation in the cave.
It wasn't his flying brick inside.
is a person. (to be continued~^~)
