Section 296 New guests

In the beginning, every mercenary felt like pie from the sky.

They are not low-wage migrant workers. It is true that even among the mercenaries, there are defective products of the "migrant worker" grade, cheap cannon fodder that is "sold" in batches, and a life is worth hundreds of dollars. But the elite troops who are a little more upscale are embarrassed to go out and greet people when they earn a few hundred dollars a day. They come from a variety of backgrounds, and most of them are veterans. It should be noted that those who came from ordinary military units are almost the same as those who graduated from junior high schools in China and completed compulsory education. Born in the special forces of various countries or something, it is only the grade of "college students of second- and third-rate universities". Only those special forces that are legendary in various countries, such as seals, berets, Royal Special Air Service Regiment, Alpha, etc., are considered higher education.

Of course, like society, academic qualifications are important, but academic qualifications are not everything. Those who "graduated from junior high school" can also mix very well, and it is common for a higher education to be killed by a bullet in seconds for the first mission.

And this group of people is the best of them all - each person's commission is calculated in "thousand dollars" every day, which is the cost of hiring them at Thomas. In other words, this group of security guards earns tens of thousands of dollars per day.

In fact, this is the amount of employment for their "offensive contract". Although this commission is high, the time to perform the task is limited. The mercenaries are equipped with their own weapons and equipment, and it is impossible for them to engage in a long war of attrition. This means that although the commission is high, the contract will not be valid for too long. Usually ten days is too much. Really those more complex tasks that take a long time, such as a month or two or something, will not be this "pay by the day" model.

But Thomas didn't understand and didn't care too much. Money is hardly an issue for Thomas these days. Of course, this was not a problem for Thomas in the past. In fact, although he was born in a capital-oriented society, he grew up with little thought about money (otherwise he would not have become the stupid person he is now). Now it's even more exaggerated, if he stays at home, the money will keep rolling in - since he studied with Director Gao, Thomas has felt more and more that money is within reach and not worth mentioning.

Therefore, he signed a security contract at the most unfavorable price and method.

Every mercenary feels like they've met a stupid man with a lot of money (although in reality they're right). Every day is as easy as a vacation – patrol the camp, guard against thieves, and the danger is infinitely close to zero, and a few thousand dollars roll into your pocket. By the way, the camp conditions here are also very good, and it is by no means an environment in the wilderness that requires Ru Mao to drink blood.

But unfortunately, this does not seem to be the case now.

The fact that more than 20 companions were wiped out by mysterious forces at the beginning is actually nothing. After all, if you are completely defenseless, if you are ambushed in this kind of jungle area, even if you are attacked by an equal number of enemies, the veteran of a hundred battles is likely to lose to a group of rookie newcomers. If there is a numerical advantage, this possibility is greatly increased. If you add the advantage of heavy equipment, the odds are basically very high.

But this time, things are very different.

The situation here is far more complicated than imagined. And, most likely, there are forces that mercenaries simply do not want to and dare not step into. Upon hearing the news, a group of mercenaries immediately realized this. After the two companions carefully finished what they had seen and heard today, there was a big uproar.

As the leader of this team of PMCs, the captain thinks a little more than others.

“…… What kind of people are those two?"

"Men should be Chinese, women should be ...... It should be a mixed race, but I don't know if it's from my own country. "It is important to note that in this tourist country, there are all kinds of services. It's very common for those white Europeans and Americans to keep their seeds here, so there are more mixed-race children. The two PMCs recalled their thoughts on the two men during the day. "However, it is certain that they must have some kind of professional training. Not necessarily a master of combat, but definitely not an ordinary person. ”

They took the initiative to go out to check on Amber today, and Lu Wu told them about staying where they were. It doesn't take much evidence, and from this point you know that these two people came prepared, not without purpose.

"Is there some kind of training?" the captain pondered as he let the team members make noise. And, as I said earlier, the killing scene made even his teammates, a group of war hyenas who claimed to be hard-hearted and hard-hearted, feel extremely uncomfortable. And the two men talk and act in this kind of scene, with a blind attitude.

"When did they come today?"

"Came to visit Thomas at camp in the morning. After we met, Thomas arranged for us to take the two of them there. ”

"Meet...... How long have you been there?"

Among the team members, the person in charge of duty saw Lu Wu and Amber coming over and watched them go out. So it is very accurate to say that these two people have not been here for a long time, and the meeting with Thomas is only ten minutes.

All the evidence is clear: they and Thomas have known each other for a long time, and even know each other better. Otherwise, a stranger wants to convince Thomas to send people and a car in a matter of minutes...... That's a little too likely.

With this in mind, he immediately stepped out of the noisy tent, walked to a secluded place, and began to make phone calls.

Although it is already night in this Asian country at this moment, on the other side of the world, everything is still daytime. The call came almost instantly.

“…… Yes...... That's right...... That's it...... There is reason to suspect that the employer is withholding valuable information...... There must be something ...... This does not fit in...... He's going to increase the price?"

"Yes, Mr. Thomas said he couldn't change the previous contract, but he was willing to sign a new contract and add fifty people to us!" said the company's headquarters on the other side of the phone. Similar to this kind of PMC company, it needs not only front-line combat personnel, but perhaps rear personnel responsible for logistics, intelligence, and business transactions. Of course, in such a company, the combatants are always the dominant ones, and the rest are just cooperative. Being the boss is either fighting on the front line or retiring from the front line battle. Because this kind of company itself cannot tolerate blind command.

Before the "Fifty ......" company accepted the request of the local warlord, only seventy or eighty people were dispatched, half of whom went back, and the other half were intercepted by Thomas. "What does he want to do?"

"He demanded that the camp be secured, as well as ...... Cooperate with the wilderness exploration!"

"Exploration in the wilderness?" it must be said that mercenaries really trade their lives for money, and they themselves think of this way. So the first reaction when I heard the news was not "this thing is weird and dangerous, it's better to leave", but whether the price is worth it. "How much does he offer?"

"He has accepted our offer. The other end of the line replied.

The captain thought about it carefully, although it was very weird, but technology has developed in these years. The death of a small town can actually be explained. He doesn't believe in the paranormal as his subordinates say. After all, it's not that hard to do this kind of thing. For example, poison gas can do it. Of course, it is not the usual poison gas, such as mustard gas, which has a high residue of strong poison gas, but some kind of special poison gas. In fact, he had the qualifications of a military doctor, so when he heard his subordinates explain in detail (and there were photos to corroborate) the deceased's situation, he was completely sure that the deceased had died of suffocation.

As long as you have money, or as long as you are willing to invest, it is not difficult to do this at all. At least not more difficult than improvised explosive devices that are now prevalent everywhere.

"I see, if the contract is signed...... When will the others arrive?" The words of so many people are already the upper limit of their company. In other words, it's a big deal for a small company like theirs (which isn't really small, and there are even those who are really small). As a big customer, Thomas can't be offended by waiting for leisure. If the company loses its credibility, it is estimated that the disintegration is imminent.

Don't look at the PMC that everyone likes to use these days, but in fact, everyone is also wary of this group of war hyenas. An unreputable company can't get any orders.

"The fastest speed, in three days. "In fact, it only takes half a day for a plane to fly halfway around the world. But the problem is that it is convenient for people to come over, but it is not convenient for equipment to come over. It has to go through some specialized channels.

The captain looked up, and then habitually took out the intercom and contacted the guards who were in charge of keeping watch at night. After all, it was his job to protect the camp, so it was customary to contact him every once in a while.

But this time, nothing happened to the intercom. This is not a thief, someone attacked the sentry! Moreover, this is not the first time!

He immediately yelled. In just a dozen seconds, the screeching of the alarm sounded in the camp. Not to mention his subordinates, even the scientists, or assistants, were disturbed and came out one after another, wondering what was going on. Of course, there are some people who feel that it is the group of security guards who are making a fuss again, so they simply ignore it and continue their own discussion and research work.

……

"Do you have to be so exaggerated every time?" Thomas asked, looking at the young Asian in front of him. "My security guards are going to riot again. ”

"It's because your sentinels are too good to let them down, I can't get in. The other party replied with a smile. The outsider's face was young, perhaps a little bigger than Lu Wu, but he looked less than thirty years old. But if you look at his eyes carefully, you may be able to detect the vicissitudes that do not belong to young people.

This is the person introduced by Director Gao. Although Thomas now thinks that what Director Gao said is indeed right, this person is very powerful. But what...... Well, his hobby seems to be a little different. At least Thomas himself didn't find it funny to tease the heavily armed mercenaries. In particular, he knew that the guns in the hands of these mercenaries did not have the rule of "the first round is empty".

"But can't you come in the normal way? as long as I introduce them to it, it won't be a problem in the future. ”

"I don't want anyone to see me, especially my face. J replied uninterested.

"It's dangerous!" Thomas didn't want to kill each other...... Well, although they are mercenaries, but at least they are their own people during the contract.

"For me, it's the safest way. J replied.

"Okay, okay. Thomas raised his hand in surrender. "You're not here to tell you about your sense of security, do you? I don't even know where you live right now. ”

J smiled, baring his teeth like a wolf or a tiger. "Of course not. I learned a little bit about living in the wild, so I didn't have to worry about my accommodation. I want to know what happened during the day. ”

"This happened. Thomas casually opened his computer. Show J the picture inside. This was photographed by PMC before, and of course some senior factory directors sent it. As for why Director Gao is not Lu Wu, this question is very simple, because Lu Wu must give Director Gao there first after taking pictures.

"That town?" J wasn't a fool and knew what was going on after looking at the photos.

"Yes, a massacre. Thomas replied. It's finally a layer apart, and if he goes to the scene, he will probably have nightmares, right? Although he is a person with a big heart, no matter how big he is, there is a limit.
