For Geese, Lu Ning actually didn't give him any choice. It was impossible for him to abandon his teammates.
When Zhu Qinyuan and Zao Wei returned here one after another, what they saw was Jisi standing aside with an unhappy face, Yan Rong holding Shao, and Lu Ning chuckling behind Yan Rong.
"Um...everyone...is everything okay?" Zaiwei looked at everyone nervously, "If we all know each other, then there is no need to fight..."
"Now that Shao has been taken hostage, why should we fight?" Gis snorted, shook his head and said, "It's long since these people want to see the boss."
"But...but the boss doesn't want to be disturbed..."
"Then is it Chen Dui or Hong Ying? Or is it some other famous person?" Lu Ning said with a smile, "If he is just because his research on the past has stayed at a critical stage and does not seem to be disturbed, then the rest of us Being in the know would be beneficial to him in the past, wouldn’t it?”
"It doesn't matter what you said." Giese curled his lips, "We have already sent a message to the boss."
"Oh, oh...ok..." Zaowei nodded repeatedly, walked to the window, and looked out the window with blank eyes. She seemed to be saying something quickly, but no sound reached everyone's ears.
After about five minutes, Zaowei turned around and said, "The boss said...if you want to see him, go there in person."
"Tsk..." Giss scratched his hair, "I don't want to follow you there."
"Is there anything difficult?" Lu Ning asked.
"Ha, the boss is currently conducting excavation work at a ruins. If you want to see him, you have to go find him." Giese said.
"Isn't it just a ruin?" Yan Rong didn't care, "Tell us where it is and we'll go over there."
"Inner city."
This sentence made Lu Ning stunned for a moment: "Are there also ruins in the inner city?"
"It's much denser than outside. The boss won't leave easily. After all, it's easy to get out and hard to get in. If you want to go to the inner city, you have to take a bus to the terminal." Geese stepped on the ground anxiously, "We don't want to Try to go to the inner city, even if you have treasure, it is still not safe, if something happens we will still die."
"That's not possible. After all, we have no way of judging whether what you said is true or false." Lu Ning shook her head, "But we can let this kid go. Anyway, his personality is in my hands, and you can't escape. I can see that you are a little reluctant, but at least you have to take us to the terminal. This requirement is not so harsh, right?"
"When we reach the terminal, are you qualified to ride the bus?" Giese held out three fingers, "Either you are a noble or an inner-city person of the same level, or you deliver a treasure in exchange for a ticket, or you defeat the people guarding there. Legionnaires. You can get on the bus only if you meet one of the three requirements. We have planned to exchange the qualifications with treasures. What about you? The treasures are also very rich? "
"I can fight." Yan Rong is very confident, "If it's one-on-one, I think I can win."
Giss choked for a moment. If he could defeat Shao, he didn't know what level of martial arts Yan Rong was, so it was difficult to refute it at this time.
"Giss, we can take people there..." Hayao whispered.
"Huh? I really don't want to escape from the rotary train again. I haven't forgotten the bad memories from last time."
"Can you please let Shao go after you go to the inner city? I will tell you the location of the ruins, and you can go find the boss yourself." He had not looked at Lu Ning for a long time.
"Of course, that's our purpose."
"Okay, we have to prepare. Tomorrow at noon... platform 11 in the East District, we will wait for you there, how about this?"
"You two, plus him." Lu Ning pointed at Shao, "I don't want you to come with a group of people to ambush us."
"Okay." Zaowei nodded, "It's a deal."
Yan Rong let go of Shao after hearing this, and Zhu Qinyuan came over. The three of them exited the floor from the stairs, then quickly went downstairs and left the building.
"Lu Ning, do you really think they will act honestly?" Zhu Qinyuan asked Lu Ning after they were a little further away.
"After all, there is nothing to lose for them."
"Then what kind of personality photo you have...are you sure about it?"
Lu Ning raised an eyebrow: "It's just a lie."
"..."

The night in the outer city is still not peaceful.
"This is probably how difficult it is to be a mediocre person."
Liu Yunqing's team had just cleared a bounty. Of course, there were actually only three of them. She, Kong Xiu and Li Qianqian. After adapting to the environment in the outer city and strengthening themselves appropriately, their strength has been greatly improved. The speed of completing bounties is also increasing.
"The Demon Sword..." Li Qianqiu looked at the short knife wrapped in densely packed cursed bandages in his hand, which he had to give to Samurai in the end. But no one living here could have imagined that someone would suddenly kill ten residents with a knife. He was hit dozens of times by people who resisted, but it still didn't hurt. He even took a shot from Kong Xiu in the face and was still alive and well. ?
"Is this the last one?" Kong Xiu said, "Complete twenty level three or above bounty tasks."
"The main plot is completed. What's left is to visit the Dark Sage and go to the inner city. We have a clue about the inner city, but we haven't got any clues about how to visit the Dark Sage." Liu Yunqing sighed, "The mission can't be done Should the instructions be more obvious? Only when we are in a desperate situation can we see... We have encountered many dangers."
"I think we may be too stable." Li Miqian said, "Because it is a chaotic scene, we have adopted a steady and steady strategy. In this way, if there is no risk, the return may be relatively low. For example... Feihua Fu Liu's and Yin Tianyou's three people are now trying to get dangerous bounties that are second only to the nobles' handling of large-scale events."
"Isn't it worthless if he dies?" Liu Yunqing shook his head.
"But the distribution center's routine is that risks may not necessarily give rewards, but there will definitely be no rewards if there is no risk." Li Miqian said. Feiku
This is true, but the team has encountered many accidents from the beginning. Although the number has not been reduced, the combat effectiveness has dropped a lot. Everyone has to stabilize themselves first to ensure that they do not die before planning the next thing.
"Do you think it's possible for us to survive the rotary train?" Kong Xiu suddenly asked Li Qiang.
"It's difficult... I think that if you want to survive from the train, it's not enough to just have some enhanced surgeries and special weapons. You also need to have at least one treasure. Unfortunately, we didn't get much from the ruins we went to last time."
Kong Xiu frowned and thought for a moment: "Then let's get in the car tomorrow."
"What? Are you crazy?" Liu Yunqing screamed, "Among us, the three of us are the only ones with strong combat capabilities. We are not even top-notch. How can we turn around at this level?"
"If there is a danger, we can see if we can take the opportunity to see the Dark Sage. The train is a very safe one in all events. After all, it will 'turn around'. We can also take the opportunity to observe the characteristics of large-scale events. I know you are worried about your strength, but it doesn’t matter, I know a place where you can get the treasure.”
"Get the treasure?" Liu Yunqing suspected that he heard wrongly.
Kong Xiu made a silent gesture and led the two people around a few streets and entered an underground bar.
There were only a few people in the bar, and even the owner was leaning on the bar with an idle look on his face. He didn't even say hello when someone came in. Kong Xiu didn't bother to pay attention to him and went straight to the two men in cloaks drinking in the corner of the bar.
"Both of you!"
After he said hello, the two cloaked figures raised their heads slightly. Both of them wore masks, with only their eyes exposed, and their gazes were cautious. After a moment, the taller man spoke: "It's you...what's the matter with you suddenly coming to see us?"
"In the previous conversation, you said that a transaction could be made." Kong Xiu said in a low voice.
"Oh? Are you interested now? It looks like you are in some trouble." The man raised his hand and motioned for the three of them to sit next to him.
"Can we listen to your introduction again?" Li Qiqiu did not listen directly to Kong Xiu, but asked the two people to talk for a while.
"Of course, we provide some power to some people who are eager to change, but it is twisted power. You may have heard of its name, treasure." The tall man said in a bewitching tone, "If you can't control the treasure, Then it will be contaminated and swallowed by the power of the treasure and turn into a disaster... There is no loss for us, we are just observing and recording your final outcome."
"So you're just giving away your treasure for free? As far as I know, it's not some trashy stuff." Li Qianqian asked.
"That's wrong. There are really a lot of treasures. Although it's not as bad as you said, the king has made a lot of treasures and buried them in ruins. As long as you have the skills, you can unearth them. We just have this ability.”
"…your team?"
"We are Kata Yoshimitsu, a team that aims to rekindle the glory of the past. Some of the things that the king abandoned without authorization are what the kingdom desperately needs. Since he saved the kingdom once, there must be someone who can do the same. Things. But these have nothing to do with you, you just need to take what you need from here and use it as hard as you can."
After the tall man finished speaking, he let out a few strange laughs.
Li Qianqiu and Liu Yunqing looked at each other. They didn't believe that these people really had such a noble purpose in distributing treasures. From the past rewards, we could also get some clues about the actions of these people. They didn't care what happened to the treasures. With so much destruction and so many deaths, how can such an organization be said to be great?
But...it's exactly what he said, what does this have to do with them? The team is in urgent need of strength, and treasure can provide strength. If you decide to go to the rotary train, you must at least obtain some special abilities to cope with large-scale events.
"Can we choose?" Liu Yunqing asked.
"Hahaha, of course, within a limited scope. We also hope that the treasure will be effective for a longer period of time." The tall man nodded happily.

In an abandoned factory building under the same night, the wine bottles on the ground collided with each other, making a crisp sound of glass.
"That idiot Yin Tianyou!"
Ise, Luo Bei and Chai Ying, who had a common fighting fate with Lu Ning, were gathered in this factory. Ise was cursing with his head raised, while Luo Bei and Chai Ying lowered their heads and remained silent.
"And Feng Hu and Tao Feiyan! What bullshit heroes... selfish bastards! They went to get some difficult bounty by themselves without saying a word. Even if we worked hard to get a treasure, we are still the same high-minded bullshit. Look like that!" Ise continued to scold Jiu Jin more and more fiercely, "Can they ignore the team because they are so good? It's not that we are not united, but we can't discuss what happens?"
"Ise, I think this will happen sooner or later." Robbe advised, "The three of them are originally a very exclusive circle. If they insist on forming a team, this will be the result sooner or later. At least our current strength is not bad... …I think it’s just that we just can’t understand each other.”
"Then what do you think we should do? They've got six bounties and they're probably having a great time now. They'll probably be rich when they finish this, and they won't care what happens to us!"
"We..." Chai Ying raised her head and looked at her two companions, "Should we also take the lead? We have treasure and are not weak. It is impossible to offer more rewards than them, but this This is a team task, let them do it if they are willing. Let’s go to the inner city first, maybe we can improve our strength again there!”
Ise was so frightened by these words that he was half drunk.
"But we don't have the qualifications to ride." Robbe whispered, "We don't have the qualifications you two asked about, and we don't have much wealth to pay for the fare."
"Yes, Chai Ying." Ise also said, "One of the three qualifications the Dark Sage told us is that treasure is acceptable. We are not from the inner city, and we may not be able to defeat the legion."
"I..." Chai Ying murmured, "When I was choosing blessings, I chose to become a [noble citizen of the inner city capital]."
Ise's eyes widened, and then he said dejectedly: "But we still have one less place."
"I can fight," Robbe said. "I can use the treasure to try to win the battle, and then use the treasure to buy you the last qualification. Since Yin Tianyou doesn't care about us, we have to find a way to change the status quo no matter what."
"Change the status quo..." Ise repeated, then nodded sharply, "Then do it!"

In a luxury hotel opened by Nest, Lu Ning and others met with Rang and others. Regarding tomorrow's actions, everyone chose the safest place - only here would provide sufficient confidentiality measures.
"Three hours... have you found it?" Lu Ning looked at the three men, each with heavy fatigue on their faces. Since it was a meeting between tourists, Jean did not allow Alex to participate.
"We found it, but in the end we used hypnosis to meet the Dark Sage." Jean said a little tiredly, "The mental state of the person we found with the Dark Secret Order has reached the limit, and it is difficult to stimulate it through soothing methods. So. I gave him some hypnotic suggestions, and then simulated his mental state so that a few of us also met the Dark Sage... It was not a pleasant experience anyway."
