Another week has passed, and Lin Dong's trip to the United States has come to a successful conclusion. And there was an unexpected joy, once again adding an important member to his dragon soul.

The affairs of the research center are not something that can be achieved overnight, so Lin Dong is not ready to stay here for long, and now he doesn't have much money in his hands, and the rest has to be reserved for the base under construction in Tanzania, so they now need to take on several tasks to solve the funding problem.

Matthew spent a good time with his family during the week, after all, he was about to go to Africa, and maybe he would have a chance to go home once in a year and a half.

After more than ten hours of flight, the group of three came to Abuja International Airport in Nigeria again.

"Welcome back, Boss! All done? ”

At the airport gate, Wall drove a car to pick up the plane.

"Well, things are on the right track in the United States, and there is no need to worry about it for the time being." Lin Dong got into the car and said.

"This is Matthew Andros, codenamed Echo, my new recruit, and the Medic of the Second Squad."

Wall looked at the somewhat silent white youth and greeted with a smile: "I'm Wall, the first squad sniper." ”

"Matthew, Matthew Adros. Served in the U.S. Navy, medic. Matthew reached out and shook Wall.

And he was also a little curious in his heart, because he could tell from the accent that this sniper named Wall should also be American, and he was from California.

"How's the bootcamp going?" Looking at Wall, who was driving, Lin Dong asked casually.

Wall laughed, "It's okay. Some of the equipment you got from Namar last time is already in place, and now our training camp has some defense. But it's just a hundred and ten AKs and four heavy machine guns, which costs two hundred thousand dollars, which is really too expensive! ”

Lin Dong nodded, because of the lack of weapons in the training camp, Lin Dong specifically looked for Namal, these equipment were obtained from the Nigerian military, and the price cost was several times more than the weapons themselves, and it was no cheaper than the arms dealer in King Kong Guo.

But the main thing about this money is not the weapons themselves, but to open the gap in the Nigerian military, and the money is just to gag the mouths of those military people.

"What about the number of people? How about getting Bout to recruit some new people? ”

The previous fifty soldiers were basically able to come in handy, but the number was too small, so the task that Lin Dong gave to Bout was to recruit fifty personnel for training again.

"It's going well, there are so many people here who don't have jobs, and in our case, even the trainees get a hundred dollars a month, and it's a good thing that a lot of people want to attend."

"But Ben has been training in the mountains with his second squad for the past few days, and it will take at least three days to come back, so you can't see them now, boss."

Lin Dong nodded, this is not a big deal. It's just that this guy is really very attentive to his team, and he doesn't miss the slightest opportunity to improve his strength.

Time passed another week, and the affairs of Matthew and the second team had been arranged, and Lin Dong began to prepare for their next mission.

"Assistant, give me a search for the status of the task, it will be difficult and the commission will be high!"

During this period of time, they did not take the initiative to contact the people of their Dragon Soul Mercenary Group, so Lin Dong still needed the help of his assistant if he wanted to take over the task.

"Host, please wait."

"Ding, congratulations to the host, the system has released a new mercenary mission - Rapid Rescue."

"Rescued four British citizens who had been kidnapped by pirates off Somali in three days."

"Task Publisher: Stookard Channing."

"Judging by the difficulty, this mission is an A-level mission."

"Mission Objective: To successfully rescue four Britons who had been imprisoned by pirates on Rock Island."

"Mission reward - a bottle of intermediate enhancement potion, 5,000 mercenary points."

"Since this is the host's seventh A-level mission, there are no additional rewards after the mission is successful."

"Realistic mission commission, $4 million."

"Oh, another rescue mission?" Lin Dong looked at the task introduction given by the assistant and said a little speechlessly. And with such a high commission, it seems that these four people should have some background.

"Also, where is this Rock Island?" Lin Dong asked out loud.

"The specific mission location and information can only be obtained after the host arrives in Victoria, the capital of Seychelles, and meets with the mission publisher."

Lin Dong was helpless.

"Okay, but the situation of this mission doesn't seem to be easy, the three-day mission deadline, is it calculated from now on?"

The assistant's voice was still calm, and he said, "Yes." Because it's a quick rescue mission, the time is changing at any time, and if the host picks up the mission tomorrow, the mission time will become two days. ”

"Damn, Seychelles is a long way from Nigeria, and it almost needs to cross Africa!" Lin Dong scolded.

The Republic of Seychelles, or Seychelles for short, is an archipelagic country located in the Indian Ocean in East Africa. On June 29, 1976, Seychelles declared independence and established the Republic of Seychelles, a member of the British Commonwealth. Half of the territory is a nature reserve, enjoying the reputation of "Tourist's Paradise".

It is a small country with a population of less than 100,000, an underdeveloped economy, a very weak industrial and agricultural base, and the general population is engaged in agriculture and fishing, and raises many poultry and livestock. In other areas, the state is mostly dependent on the consumption of inbound tourists.

However, because of its geography, the country, like other countries around the Somali Seas, suffers from piracy.

In comparison, Seychelles' military is very fragile, with a total strength of 800 troops, including 500 in the army and 300 in the coast guard. There are also 50 members of the Presidential Guard and 1,000 members of the National Guard (formerly the militia).

In 2011, the country even wanted to invite China to set up a military base on Mahe to strengthen the fight against piracy.

This time it happened that four young men from England came to the Seychelles for a tour, but they were robbed by pirates while exploring at sea.

The pirates extorted £1 million from the young men's families, but instead of releasing them as agreed, the pirates raised the price again, and the ransom was raised to £5,000,000, or the hostages would be executed immediately.

Clearly, the pirates knew from the four that they were all rich, and it was evident from the millions of pounds they had come up with without hesitation.

This has fuelled their greed even more, and it is clear that a million pounds is no longer enough to satisfy their appetites.

This made the family behind the four young men angry, and they no longer believed in the credibility of the pirates.
