Chapter 2163: Exploring the Trail of Sha Lan (1)

At around 7 o'clock the next morning, on the Red Sea in Africa, in the exclusive lounge of the captain of the sandship Dawn.

"Heh------" Bediwell got out of bed, feeling only muscle aches all over his body. It's no wonder that I didn't go to bed so late last night (or maybe I went to bed very early this morning?), and I don't get enough sleep time, so I feel tired for granted.

"Eve, is Lawrence on the boat?" asked Bedeville as soon as he changed his clothes, "help me inform him." ＂

"Yes, Captain. A notice has been issued to the person concerned. The ship's artificial intelligence navigation system replied.

"Okay," the werewolf youth rubbed his shoulder, "Looks like it's going to be another long day." ＂

Ten minutes later, in the crew lounge of the Aurora.

"Work?" said Big Lawrence, blinking at Bediwell as he ate his french fries, "Oh, oh, you're talking about the job that makes a lot of money, boss." That has already been arranged for you, don't worry. ＂

"What is the job?" said Beddyville, sitting across from the same table, grabbing a handful of french fries and stuffing them into his mouth.

"That's the job assigned by the Bounty Hunters Guild, so it's not convenient to say here. Lawrence glanced at the idlers next to him, but there weren't too many idlers in the lounge, just Aubert and Kate, who were watching cartoons on TV.

"Well, let's talk about this when we get to the guild. Bediwell then said, "I just hope that the reward will really be seen." I have to scrape together 100 million Egyptian dollars in a week, which is very stressful. ＂

"Don't worry, boss. The owner of this mission is a rich man, and the reward will naturally not be less------ relatively, the danger of the mission is also very high. ＂

"Expected, reasonable. The werewolf youth was not moved in the slightest.

"Then let's have breakfast and go. Lawrence said, and sped up his french fries, not so much as to finish breakfast as soon as possible, but for fear that the remaining french fries would be snatched up by Bediwell.

"Uncle Wolf wants to go out to play?" said the little tiger Aubert wagging his tail and saying, "Bring the puppet with you, too!

"You two stinky boys are still on ground, forgot?" Bediwell glanced at the tiger man: "Stay on the boat for me obediently and don't make trouble, otherwise I will extend your grounding for another two weeks!"

"Wow, stingy!" said Aubert, sticking out his tongue, "Aunt Eve, get me an ice cream!"

"Understood, send it right away. The sand boat's artificial intelligence navigation system replied.

"You kid, you don't look like you're in the boat at all. Bedeville widened, "Eve, keep an eye on the actions of these two little naughty ones. If they mistreat, they will not be allowed to serve sweets to them in the future. ＂

"Yes, Captain. Eve replied again.

"Huh!" "It's too much!!" Kate and Aubert protested.

At the same time, a burst of sirens was remembered inside the ship, although it lasted for a short time.

"Captain Bediville, the occupant of the medical chamber has completed his treatment. Eve said.

"Little Hal. Bediwell remembered everything that had happened last night and couldn't help but have mixed feelings. Either way, after the organ transplant, little Hal spent the night in the medical pod, and should now at least recover to a certain extent. This is also a happy thing. He had to rush over and see what was going on.

"No, forget it. Bediwell quickly dismissed this thought, and muttered to himself. By this time the Paramidis had already rushed over to see their youngest son, and it was better not to get in the way of the reunion of the family.

"Let's go. The werewolf youth then said to Lawrence, "Are you going to report to the guild and take on the mission?"

"No need, I've already helped you apply for the task. The sorcerer handed over a paperwork, "The employer asked us to meet them at a designated location, and it seems that there is a special test set up. According to the employer, it seems that it is necessary to have a practical understanding of the power of the person being hired before deciding whether to hire or not. ＂

"I see, it makes perfect sense. Bediwell said unemotionally.

"Boss, you should be angry. Obviously, according to your strength, your ranking in the guild is not low, but the other party still doesn't believe in the guild's recommendation, and wants to test you. Lawrence snorted, "This is clearly an insult to both the guild and you. ＂

"The fact that the other party is capable of doing this also means that they have a lot of financial power over there, right?" Bediwell said tentatively.

"Well, that's right. Anyway, you'll understand when you get to your destination, boss. Lawrence pretended to be mysterious.

"You're just a job agent, buy me something there. Bedivel said with a long face.

Lawrence grinned and didn't say anything.

Using the Aurora's teleportation beam to fly directly into the city outside Cairo's black market, Beddevil and Lawrence were almost at their destination in the blink of an eye.

"Is this the place?" the werewolf youth stood in a daze in front of a dilapidated house in the western part of Cairo's black market. The employer must be very rich, right? But the dilapidated concrete bungalow in front of him was not even three stories high, it looked really unremarkable, and it looked very suspicious that it was in a deserted area in the western part of the black market.

"Welcome. Seeing Bediwell and Lawrence approaching, a large man in a black suit stepped up to answer him. The man looked very authentic Egyptian, and he was an upper-class person. Although he was a purebred white man, his skin was wheat-colored from the scorching tropical sun all year round, but it was completely different from the black of black people. This man is wearing a strict black suit in a region like Egypt where the daytime is hot all year round, is he not afraid of the heat? Bediwell muttered to himself. Maybe the other party is just desperately patient because of decency.

"You're the employer?" asked Bediwell, curious.

"No, it's just the person in charge of answering the order. However, the big man in the black suit said, "Our employer has hired about 300 people to participate in the mission, and although we have recruited mercenaries with extraordinary skills through your bounty hunter organization, our employer does not plan to recruit everyone into the team of this mission, and will probably only keep the best tenths of talent." Our employer said that this mission was very dangerous, and that no one who was not able to fight could be involved in the mission, as that would only cause casualties. ＂

"Yes. Your employer is so considerate. Bediwell said with a hint of sarcasm.

"Then, gentlemen, please take this hood. The man in a black suit handed over a black hood. The texture of the hood is very light and breathable, but it is made of a fabric with excellent shading properties. This allows the wearer of the hood to not feel the stuffiness of the hood, but also to conceal his face as much as possible.

"What does that mean?" said Bediwell, frowning.

Dahan added: "Our employer said that they would never judge a person's strength based on their appearance. That's why he wants all the bounty hunters who take part in this test to wear hoods, hide their identities, and prove their strength only by their performance in the test. No matter what country you are from, you can participate in this mission as long as you have enough strength. ＂

"What, pretty seriously. Bediwell blinked, "I can understand that. That's it. ＂

"Boss ------" Lawrence glanced at Bediwell and handed over the Hunters' Guild's mandate.

"No, please keep this for yourselves. When you have actually passed the test, it's not too late to submit this document. Dahan said.

"That means that people who don't even pass the test, your employer won't even want to look at their appointment papers. Bediwell put the black hood on, "Well, that's fair. ＂

"This gentleman ...... too?" the big man in the black suit turned his gaze to Lawrence, handing the other hood to the sorcerer.

"No, no, no, I'm not here to participate in your mission, I know that I don't have enough strength. Lawrence hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand: "I'm just the introducer of my boss...... Well, it's probably an intermediary-like person. What tests do you have, please keep going and leave me alone. ＂

"So, sir, please, you wait here. The test site is free of occupancy, and we are unable to let you in. ＂

"Of course, of course. Lawrence took a step back: "Then I'll wait for you to come back at the black downtown market in Cairo, right?"

"If you like. Bedivel shrugged, "But maybe it's going to take a long time?"

"You don't have to worry about that. The man in the black suit added, "When all the hunters who participated in the test have arrived, the test will probably be over in an hour." ＂

Interesting. Can the strength of more than 300 participants be tested in just one hour? Bediwell smiled indifferently. Let's look at what kind of medicine these people sell in their gourds.

"Well, please. The big man turned and left, motioning for Bedeville to follow.

The werewolf youth followed behind the big man in the black suit and walked into the ordinary and even slightly dilapidated cement building.

The iron door behind him was closed.

"The test site is accessed from here. The big man in a black suit walked only a few steps inside the building's hall before he pulled a mechanism disguised as a wall lamp on the wall of the hall.

Boom Boom Boom ------Boom

Amid the sound of mechanical gears turning in the hall, the floor in the center of the hall opened, revealing a staircase path to the underground. The path led to a very deep underground, lit only by mysterious fires that shot out of holes in the walls.

"Is the test site underground, sure enough. Bedivel then said.

"No, the tests have already begun. But the big man said.

Countless red lasers shot out from between the various gaps in the staircase, and there seemed to be mechanisms controlling them, and these lasers were constantly moving up and down, left and right, and they were dazzling to watch.

"This is the initial test. Dodge the laser traps on the stairs and reach the underground testing site safely. Dahan said: "Don't worry, the power of the laser can't kill people, at most it's just a level of mild skin burns." However, if you are swept by a laser, you will be disqualified immediately, so if you want to participate in this mission, please make sure that you arrive at your destination without being injured by the laser. Can you do it?"

"Whew, it's finally interesting. Bediwell smiled heartily.
