Sometimes the development of the situation will not change due to the will of the individual or even the group, because there are many groups in the world. This is the case in the current world, and the same is true in the cursed space.
After listening to what the beautiful woman said, the middle-aged man named Feida stopped talking. Instead, he frowned, and several people next to him also had tangled expressions.
There is no doubt that these people are the executors, the third execution team of Cursed Space. As for why they are in the Qinling Mountains or even traveling through the mountains and forests? The answer is precisely a supernatural mission. The mission goal is self-evident, but it is a pity that they cannot find it. Not to mention the underground tomb, even the mission area is difficult to lock. They have no choice but to gather and discuss, and finally come to the conclusion that it is impossible to find it. , the Chinese Feng Shui metaphysics is too profound, and it is difficult for them as foreigners to understand it. They cannot even understand it, let alone understand it and search for it. In this regard, Master Haller made a suggestion, that is, to join this mission. The reason is that the seventh team is a team composed of Chinese people. Compared with them, the opponent is more likely to find Anling. As the captain, Abdullah has also thought carefully. Later, they adopted the old man's suggestion. If the team's original purpose was to find Anling, then now their purpose is to find someone to find the seventh execution team that although they have never met each other, their overall strength is superior to their own.
After all, it is obviously easier to find someone than to find the Dark Tomb. Besides...
If they were just looking for someone, they would still be very confident. .
At this moment, walking through the woods with dense vegetation, let alone Abdullah and others who were following behind, Master Haller who was walking in front kept moving in a certain direction as if he had a purpose, watching the old man's back. , glanced at the already darkened sky, hesitated for a moment, and Abdullah asked tentatively: "Master Halle, your body..."
Seeing the worry in the man's words, Master Haller gasped and said: "Huh, don't worry, I can still hold on, and my consciousness has been maintained in a diffuse form. As long as there is someone nearby, they will not be able to escape my perception."
No one knows what the so-called divine consciousness in the old man's mouth specifically refers to, but the words reveal an important key, that is, the spread of divine consciousness requires consumption. The longer it lasts, the greater the burden will be on Master Haller. Perhaps this is why During the journey, the old man would be out of breath and look more tired than the others, but...
"Well?"
After responding to Abdullah, before the other party could respond, suddenly, Master Haller's face froze slightly, and he suddenly stopped. Seeing that the leading old man stopped, Abdullah and others who followed him also stopped at the same time. He stopped, and then, without waiting for others to ask, the old man turned back to everyone as if he had discovered something and said, "Everyone, follow me!"
The sun was falling little by little under the pressure of time. As the sun gradually set in the west, the environment became darker and darker. Along with it, He Fei's hesitation and entanglement became more and more intense.
(What's going on? Why am I so panicked? Was I like this before? It's not my first time on a mission. I won't and shouldn't be like this? Am I scared? Or am I scared by some unknown entity? arrive?).
Staring at the dark cave leading to the dark mausoleum at his feet, He Fei's face kept changing, sometimes white, sometimes normal, and sometimes showing a rich and complex expression representing entanglement. Perhaps He Fei thought he was inexplicably scared, but in fact Is he not the only one with similar reactions? In fact, from the moment they learned that the Thief Cave was the entrance to the Dark Tomb, Peng Hu, Cheng Ying, Tang Meng, Chen Xiaoyao, Li Tianheng, Kong Ling, Chen Shuihong, Tao Mei, and even the newcomers all collectively thought of retreating. As if they were very resistant to this robbery, everyone hesitated. Even Zhao Ping, who was always calm, frowned while observing the robbery. Unfortunately, resisting was meaningless. He Fei understood this, and the others Everyone understands it, and because of this, so...
(No, I can't continue to think like this. If I don't stop, I will be confused. I don't believe it anymore!)
"call!"
Gritting his teeth and taking a deep breath, He Fei stopped hesitating and said at the same time: "Let's go..."
"etc!"
Just when He Fei was about to call everyone into the robbery cave, for some reason, Cheng Ying's expression changed next to her. She first stopped He Fei, then turned to look at her opponent.
noodle.
"Huh? What's wrong?".
The result was certain. Seeing Cheng Ying suddenly turning around to look behind her, she was surprised and didn't care to think about it. Everyone turned back one after another. And coincidentally, just as everyone was led by Cheng Ying to look back in panic, At the same second, there was movement in the woods opposite, followed by a crashing sound, and soon, a group of people came out!
Seeing a group of men and women suddenly emerge from the forest, no matter it was He Fei, Zhao Ping or Cheng Ying who was the first to notice, everyone was shocked. Some of them reacted quickly and instinctively reached out when they discovered the person. Go to touch the weapons. In just a moment, Cheng Ying grabbed the dagger on her waist. Peng Hu grabbed the machete on his waist. Zhao Ping also reached into his arms immediately. Especially Cheng Ying, who held the dagger and jumped at the same time. He stood in front of He Fei and firmly protected the college student behind him. As the saying goes, everything is relative. Seeing Cheng Ying and others fumble for weapons, the crowd on the opposite side also went to get their weapons in panic. For a moment, the two sides were at war with each other. , the atmosphere was extremely tense! After all, no one expected that two teams of similar size would suddenly encounter each other. In addition, both sides were strangers and did not know each other. It was normal to have this reaction. It is true to say so, but the problem is that this is not the way to go. The two sides are definitely not at war with each other. A good thing, but once it gets out of control, the consequences will be disastrous!
This truth must be clear to He Fei, who is observing carefully, and it is also true for Abdullah, who has suddenly changed his expression, especially Abdullah. At first, he was just walking through the woods under the leadership of Master Haller, but not long ago Master Haller, who was aware of this, actually accelerated his team and rushed in a certain direction. He thought he would have to walk for a while, but unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the woods, he saw a crowd. The number of people in this group was not much different from his own. men and women! .
As for the specific identities of the people opposite...
The seventh executive team is exactly the Chinese team that they don't want to contact but have to contact!
(Oops!)
At this moment, seeing the tension between the two teams, Abdullah secretly said something bad. After all, he clearly knew that the overall strength of the Shenzhou team was higher than theirs. Once a fight broke out between the two sides, they would be the last to be destroyed. If possible, he would like to lead them now. Everyone turned around and ran away, but the problem was that they couldn't run away. If they ran away, they would never find the underground tomb, and they would only end up being wiped out.
The above were Abdullah's inner thoughts, but it was precisely because he was thinking too much that he forgot to speak in a hurry. Fortunately, the beautiful woman next to him responded well. Before Abdullah could recover, the woman As the crowd came out, Chao Hefei and others took the initiative and said, "Please don't misunderstand us, we don't have any ill intentions!"
While the woman was the first to express her kindness, Abdullah finally reacted, turned around and yelled at his companions who had taken out their weapons: "Put your weapons back, this is the captain's order!"
Relying on their status as captain and their high prestige in the team, at Abdullah's request, the members who had just drawn their swords on guard obeyed the order. Although they were upset in their hearts, they still took back their weapons one after another and waited for one party to After taking the lead to put away their weapons, not to mention, the tense atmosphere just now eased, and the members of the Shenzhou team who had been silently on guard looked at each other one after another, and basically guessed some kind of answer during this period. There is no doubt that the current station The group of people on the opposite side is most likely the third team, the Arab team that has never been seen before, an execution team that is weaker than them in the curse judgment.
Thinking of this, everyone, including He Fei, made secret calculations in their hearts, while Zhao Ping instinctively narrowed his eyes. .
Getting back to the topic, as the Arab team took the lead in putting away their weapons and actively showing goodwill, with He Fei’s nod, Cheng Ying and others also put away their weapons one after another. Soon, the two teams met each other and came closer. It was found that the initial guess was completely correct. As the two teams got closer to each other, they saw that the third team all had exotic appearances. In addition to their appearance, which perfectly matched the Chinese people’s subjective impression of Middle Easterners, the other team’s clothes were also very consistent with the characteristics of the Middle East. Some of the men were Wearing white scarves and white robes, some women also wore some Middle Eastern-style decorations. The leader was a middle-aged bearded man wearing a chak. Although the bearded man had an ordinary appearance and no highlights, he was a man alone. The position in the middle is enough to prove his identity. This person is most likely the captain of the third team. On the left and right sides of the bearded man are an old man in his early 60s and a young woman. The old man has a thin figure and a thin face. tired, eyes
There is an active energy that does not suit her age, while the woman has a beautiful appearance and a tall figure. She exudes an indescribable unique temperament. In addition to her unique temperament, the woman is also extremely calm. In fact, since the two teams met, the woman has been He kept observing He Fei and others with calm eyes, squinting his beautiful eyes from time to time, but his overall behavior was somewhat similar to that of Zhao Ping opposite him.
A bearded man, an old man and a beautiful woman stood in the front row. The people behind him also had their own characteristics. Among them, a middle-aged man was the most conspicuous. The man was about 30 years old. He had a white scarf on his head and was dressed strangely. He was clearly wearing a loose-fitting torso. He wears a white robe, but a few belt-like ropes tie up the white robe, so it looks very simple and suitable for action. The whole thing gives people an alternative feeling, and what is even more alternative is that the man is also carrying a mysterious gun behind him. The reason why the scimitar is described as mysterious is because the entire blade is wrapped in white cloth, and only a black handle can be seen.
Following the weirdest man in a corset, next to him is a short man. Compared to the weirdly dressed man in a corset, the short man is much more normal. Next is a man with a crew cut in casual clothes, and next to him is a man with a short head. Standing was a man with a slightly wretched appearance. In addition, compared to the thick beards of most of the male executors of the third team, this man had a relatively rare moustache.
The above four people stood in the second row, followed by a dozen men and women with nervous expressions, which was in sharp contrast to the overall calmness of the people in the front row. As expected, the seven people standing in the front were senior people. , the dozen or so men and women behind who could hardly conceal their nervousness were undoubtedly the newcomers who had just joined. .
Of course, as said before, everything is relative. When the members of the Chinese team headed by He Fei were observing each other, why were the members of the Arab team headed by Abdullah not looking at them? But the difference is...
Through observation, Abdullah and others discovered an astonishing phenomenon, that is, the overall calmness of the Shenzhou team. Except for the young men and women who showed the unique nervousness of newcomers, most of the rest were calm. After just watching for a moment, an astonishing guess was made. Suddenly it came to mind:
There are many senior members in the Shenzhou team, at least half of the team of more than a dozen people are seniors!
After observing this, Abdullah and the others understood instantly. No wonder the curse would judge that their team was weaker than the Shenzhou team. It turned out that the opponent had more seniors, at least more than them who only had 7 seniors. In addition, the invisible individual The combination of strength and various factors led to the overall strength of the Shenzhou team surpassing them, and there is another point worth mentioning, that is, the large number of seniors itself represents a kind of strength, which means that the Shenzhou team is more capable than them of retaining And train new people, and finally train the new people into senior people.
At this moment, looking at He Fei standing in the center of the front row, he glanced at Cheng Ying and Peng Hu standing on both sides, and suddenly came to his senses. Abdullah was the first to speak, and the next moment he recognized that the young man was the team leader, he took the initiative to extend his right hand. : "Well, this brother should be the captain of the Shenzhou team. Hello, we are on the third executive team. My name is Abdullah, and I am the captain of the third team."
With a hint of uneasiness, Abdullah took the lead in clarifying the facts. While saying that they were the third team, he reached out to show kindness. The moment he extended his right hand, Abdullah was quite nervous. He was worried that the other party would reject it. Shake hands, and the meaning of refusing to shake hands is self-evident. Fortunately, what he was worried about did not happen in the end. Seeing the bearded man reaching out to express his kindness, He Fei also extended his right hand.
"Hello, our seventh execution team, my name is He Fei, and like you, I am currently serving as the captain."
As He Fei stretched out his hand to shake his hand, Abdullah finally felt relieved. The other senior members of the third team also breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time. There is no doubt that since the other party is willing to shake their hands, it means that the other party accepts it. Although I don’t know if I think so in my heart, at least there is no malicious intention on the surface. But then again, judging from the situation of this mission, unless the brain is full of water, it is impossible for either team to take the initiative to challenge Things conflict, and the reason why the conflict between the two parties is impossible is precisely the difficulty level of this mission.
An abyss-level mission is a supernatural mission whose name alone is enough to make any executor feel chilly in his heart.
In the face of such an extremely dangerous task, any executive team with some brains will know what to do. Since the facts are before us, then
What follows can be expected...
With both sides secretly on guard, Abdullah spoke first and took the initiative to introduce his own members to the Shenzhou team except for the newcomers. Then He Fei also introduced his own members. Of course, out of careful consideration, the so-called The introductions were just exchange of names. Through Abdullah, the old man in his early 60s was named Halle, the beautiful woman was named Ives, the man in a corset carrying a machete was named Feida, and the short man was named Os. Ben, the man with the crew cut is called Carey, and the last man with a wretched appearance is called Donald. .
First, they told each other the names of the members, and then, without He Fei asking, Abdu explained the purpose of his visit very openly and directly made their mission goals public. The mission goals of the third team were the same as those of the seventh team, that is Entering the Wu Zhao Dark Tomb and finding something called the Soul-fixing Pearl, however, unfortunately, although the mission goal was clear, they had zero understanding of Chinese Feng Shui and could not find the Dark Tomb at all, even though they had originally appeared there. I heard some news in the city and learned that Longling Slope might be Juling Mountain, but that was all. Finding an underground tomb in the Qinling Mountains that stretched for thousands of miles was basically equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack. I had no choice but to change my strategy. They were not here. Looking for An Ling, I turned to the seventh team, with the purpose of getting help from the seventh team. After all, the seventh team is all Chinese, and the chance of finding An Ling is always higher than that of foreigners like them. Fortunately, the kung fu is not good. After passing through a forest, they met the seventh team by chance.
As a team captain, Abdullah naturally knows what can and cannot be said. After deliberately concealing the fact that they found the seventh team with the help of Master Haller's ability, Abdullah changed the topic and addressed He Fei asked: "Our situation is almost like this. By the way, if I guess correctly, Brother He, your mission goal should be the same as ours, right?".
"Yes, our mission is also to enter the Dark Tomb to obtain the Soul-fixing Pearl." Seeing Abdullah's confession, He Fei, who knew that sooner or later he would enter the Dark Tomb, also stated his mission objective very simply. , after all, the robbery hole is behind you, and there is no way to hide this kind of thing.
Sure enough, seeing that the mission goal of the Shenzhou team was exactly the same as theirs, after looking at each other with Avis, Abdullah changed his tone and made a suggestion to He Fei in a probing tone. No matter how you look at it, They are all reasonable suggestions that have only advantages and no disadvantages: "Since our two teams have exactly the same mission goals, can we cooperate?"
The cooperation mentioned by Abdullah is naturally to direct both parties to perform the task together, merge the two teams into one, and then search for the underground dark tomb together. After entering the dark tomb, naturally they will also search for the soul-fixing beads together. This proposal is very profitable on the surface. There is no harm, it is good for both the Shenzhou team and the Arab team. The so-called unity has great power, but...
After hearing Abdullah's cooperation proposal, for some reason, He Fei on the opposite side did not accept it immediately, nor did he answer immediately. Instead, he showed hesitation. Not only He Fei was hesitant, but everyone except Tao Mei and the newcomers All the members of the Shenzhou Team subconsciously frowned slightly and showed complicated expressions. The reason for these people's hesitation came from an experience, or a team task that was still fresh in their memory. .
When they were performing a mission called "Ghost Hotel", the sixth team at that time proposed cooperation between the two teams. He Fei and others who were performing a team mission for the first time also readily agreed. Originally, the two teams They would work together to overcome difficulties together for mutual benefit. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the mission, the sixth team suddenly attacked them and took the initiative to attack them! He completely ignored the original cooperation agreement and then launched a sneak attack on the seventh team, catching them off guard and putting the entire seventh team into crisis. If Zhao Ping hadn't been good at calculating and had built an almost perfect plan long ago, In response to the plan, perhaps their seventh team would be completely destroyed.
It is said that once bitten by a snake, he is afraid of well ropes for ten years. Because he once experienced an unpleasant cooperation between two teams, at this moment, when he heard the cooperation request from other teams again, He Fei couldn't help but feel guilty. Cheng, who was also at the scene, Sakura and others also had complicated expressions. Of course, strictly speaking, the situation this time is somewhat different. First of all, the difficulty of the task suddenly increased. At the same time, the third team was not the sixth team, not to mention the third team.
The overall strength of the third team is still weaker than that of the seventh team, so theoretically it is impossible for the third team to play tricks. This is true, but people's hearts are separated from each other after all. If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of the worst. No one in the world can completely Even teammates on the same team can't understand other people's hearts. It is conceivable that even teammates on the same team cannot completely guess each other's thoughts, let alone two completely unfamiliar execution teams. .
Thinking of this, He Fei turned around and looked at everyone. As far as he could see, he saw that everyone had basically the same reaction. Except for Chen Xiaoyao who showed an indifferent expression, Cheng Ying, Tang Meng, Kong Ling, Li Tianheng, and Chen Shuihong all cast their names. With a look that suggested rejection, Peng Hu shook his head very obviously, but...
As his gaze continued to shift, when his sight turned to Zhao Ping, the man with glasses suddenly spoke. After adjusting his gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, he said to He Fei: "I think cooperation is a good idea. After all, this mission is extraordinary. It is better for two teams to work together than to work alone.”
(Huh?)
Since he really didn't expect that the bespectacled man would agree to the other party's request for cooperation, He Fei was startled when he heard this. Everyone else also showed a collective look of surprise and looked at Zhao Ping with surprised eyes, but Zhao Ping didn't show any sign of it. Not caring, he just nodded towards He Fei. Seeing this, He Fei's expression changed slightly, next...
After taking a deep look at Zhao Ping, as if he had made a final decision, He Fei turned around again, and then said to Abdullah who was waiting silently on the other side: "Okay, I agree to your cooperation request, starting from now on. , our two teams work together to carry out this mission.”
