Compiling information takes time, and if you say you don't want to attend the banquet, you won't attend.
As night falls, the last stubborn resisters have fallen dead on the desert, and Node City has received reinforcements from all walks of life.
Node City, which had been as deserted as ghosts before, had a bunch of troops stationed there. The management of the company that had survived before quickly counted the losses.
He was so crazy that he actually invited all the independent mercenaries to the management department that was completely rebuilt in a few hours and held a hasty celebration banquet.
Seifer was sitting in the room of the maintenance factory. Next to him was Lin Shenxue, who was holding a tablet in his pocket and eating fried chicken in his hands. The two of them watched their car body being modularly dismantled in the factory for inspection and maintenance.
In the communication, Laika slowly compiled the information: "After this conflict is over, your personal remuneration has exceeded the five million mark."
"After deducting the proportion taken away by the support system, you still have about 100,000 left on hand. Have you considered how to use this money?"
One hundred thousand may seem like a small number, but among mercenary groups, this price can buy sophisticated weapons from several companies.
Or replenish the various supplies necessary for a small vehicle like the Seve, which will provide enough for at least two months.
Of course, you can also choose to purchase a weapon for the machine body. Each company has its own unique skills and matching weapons.
Compared to finding rubbish from small workshops or from unknown forces, products produced by companies must be reliable and cheap.
"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll think about it. Oh, by the way, my escort mission has changed, as you know."
"Does it mean... that the doctor died in the battle? I saw it on the list of casualties."
Laika's voice was low: "Not only the doctor, but even her team is gone..."
"I'll tell you about this later. If the mission changes, what problems may I encounter?"
There are many people and many things cannot be explained in detail.
So Laika calmed down and said, "If we were just transporting the remains, I don't think there would be any danger. But the bad thing is, someone on the mercenary network is already spreading rumors."
"An unknown person is claiming that a mercenary has research materials left by Dr. Mei. These materials are of extraordinary value. As long as they can be handed over to certain companies, they can instantly become rich and powerful."
"To be cautious, the doctor didn't leave these things behind...right?"
"I don't know. I'll ask you later."
"ask……?"
Changing the line, Cypher continued to wait for the repair and another transportation work to be completed, and then transferred the communication.
He asked: "Dr. Mei, if you are not busy, can you tell me if you have left any valuable legacy? For example, research that countless mercenaries are trying to steal."
"Yes, yes."
Dr. Mei: "About forty-two anomalies have been researched and collected, and an energy-to-mass printer is still being conceived. There are also devices that may allow people to live forever."
You are really a treasure doctor. Whoever explodes your gold coins will definitely get a lot of money.
"But they are all in the research and development period and cannot be put into production. These are only part of the research and development of climate change. What is this for?"
"It's okay, I'm just asking. When I run out of money, I'll blow your gold coins."
While he was talking, Seifer saw that his account suddenly increased by fifty thousand.
Dr. Mei: "If it's not enough, please apply again. These are research funds. If it doesn't matter, I'll continue to take a bath."
After the communication ended, Seve told Laika wordlessly that her guess was correct, Dr. Mei was a hundred treasure chests, and it contained everything!
By the way, at this time, Lin Shenxue was eating her second helping of fried chicken nuggets with a mouth full of oil. She didn't even bother to drink water. That was the reincarnation of a starving ghost.
Laika: "Then you have to be careful and don't leak too much information. The support system will not disclose the specific mercenaries who will take the mission, but there will definitely be people on the way who will test it. You have to be careful, Red Crossbow."
If no one tells it, who else will reveal it? Dr. Mei's scientific research team was completely wiped out.
Seve told her not to be so nervous. The more nervous she was, the easier it would be for others to see the problem. He changed the topic and said that he had got a new machine body, but the most important engine was not found. What should he do?
"Your problem can be easily solved. Someone in Edge Node City may sell second-hand, complete engines. If not, you can also go to Furnace Node City to order one."
As for the specific engine that needs to be replaced to drive the new body, it depends on the masters in the furnace node city.
The maintenance of the car body is soon coming to an end, and Seve is also planning to pack up and go back to the car to make some preparations for departure - the edge node city is dead, can we move forward?
Laika: "By the way, the name Foldrich, doesn't it sound familiar to you, Red Crossbow?"
"I don't think so. I've been working hard."
"It should sound familiar even if you are immersed in work. This is the name of the CEO of Abian Company. And don't look at her small size! She is a big shot."
The big shot was okay. When she said CEO, Seve had already thought of more than five ways to change his appearance.
However, Laika didn't understand at all: "Although her status comes from family inheritance, she herself is not the decoration that everyone imagined."
"When she just turned ten, she designed and put into production a special synchronous boosting device for the company. This made the company's weapons a big step forward in the electromagnetic direction."
"This is undoubtedly a genius - although there are rumors that this genius is very arrogant, but genius is more or less eccentric."
Laika kept talking and boasted about this 'genius'.
"So this is why she found someone to attack the city, intending to take it for herself and then slowly investigate?"
Having no choice but to interrupt, Seve told Laika about his pleasant exchange with 'Foldridge', but she got stuck on the other side.
After a while, she said seriously:
"If what you said is true, it would be very troublesome. Without enough evidence to prove it, it is best not to make any announcement, Red Crossbow."
"It seems like she doesn't know who you are. It's best to keep a low profile during this period. Just in case, I suggest you take on some less important tasks and always pay attention to the mercenary system...it will affect the hunted mercenaries." The soldiers issued a duty reminder."
The premise is that those people are using the mercenary system and not some private commission.
Seifer waved his hand indifferently: "Forget it, I don't want to go that much. There are so many cities anyway, just don't go to the land controlled by Abian Company."
"I have already planned the route to the Central Node City. The next step is to follow the route that Dr. Mei planned during his lifetime - end of communication."
"...Why should we follow the route we planned during our lifetime?"
Seve deliberately gave it a try, waited for the communication to end, and watched his car slowly drive out of the maintenance area and into the parking lot like a new one.
Then he answered another message that had been ringing for a long time: "So what do you want?"
Tien's voice sounded like an explosion: "You weren't at the celebration banquet at all! Where were you!"
"I'm repairing cars. The kind of publicity work like a celebration party is not suitable for me. Anyway, I can celebrate by buying something myself when I have the money."
"Yes! Where did your car go? Hurry back to the big parking lot. Your pile of things is piled in the parking lot. There are already mercenaries watching curiously."
She had obviously drunk a lot, and her voice was slurred: "If you don't want it, just sell it to them. Someone is already touching it."
It didn't work anymore, so Seve immediately stood up and tucked Lin Shenxue under his arm.
"I'll be back soon, help me maintain order."
