The rustling of the wind rolled up the dust on the weeds on the ground.

As time passed, the scorpion and the others went into the cave to look for thorns.

Jiang Cang stood outside the cave, looking at the surrounding hills, and the powerhouses of the companies who came for themselves had already come nearby.

Eagle Gaze looked out over the cracks in the hills to the south.

Two miles away, a convoy had arrived, and the rest of the people had also stopped around the hilly area one after another at this point in time.

It's like they've had some kind of communication, and they have to be not far apart, and they arrive together.

It's more like locking off this area, trying to discuss something.

Jiang Cang turned around and looked at the scorpion team members in the cave who were still looking for thorns, this was really a coincidence, if people didn't understand, they would really mistakenly think that these people had a different kind of 'premeditated'.

Not for yourself, but for thorns.

Maybe when the scorpion and the others just came out, they ran into these people head-on, so it was really difficult to explain this matter clearly.

At the same time.

Outside the hills to the west.

A convoy of four jeeps came to a halt.

The 'click' door opened, and in the lead of the car, a bald man came out, holding a gray-glowing radio talkie, talking to the convoy of people in the north, south, east, and north.

The communication of this world is like that, and it is also related to thorns.

Enchant the crystals of the same thorn magic fluctuations into walkie-talkies and evolve into a kind of 'sound transmission spirit stone.' ’

Many companies in the western region have a 'same channel' to ensure that they can communicate normally within 10,000 kilometers and will not be interfered by foreign objects.

The 'signal tower' that maintains the channel's communication is a half-human-sized thorn crystal, which stands within Ruder Finn, and is guarded by nine companies in the western region.

Today, there are nine teams and nine companies, all of which are the largest low-level companies in the western region.

The purpose of their coming here is to try to pull Jiang Cang into their company, increase the strength of their own company, and try to move towards an intermediate company.

The easiest way is that if there are five S-level powerhouses in a company, 100% of them can be rated as an intermediate company.

"We at Lightning are very good at keeping our promises.."

At this time, the strong man was touching his bald head, and the polished big scalp shoes stepped on the weeds under his feet, and said to the radio intercom: "You say one piece, one piece, we belong to fair competition, we are all members of the alliance." We'll meet later, but don't quarrel and fight! In case someone dies, but the gain outweighs the loss... I believe that you have brought the S-level powerhouses in the company with you this time, slightly.. Be peaceful? ”

"I don't seem to say how your company is?" To the south, a gray-haired young man choked up, but he also came up with a relatively peaceful idea, "Let's not play so much." Just said that if we can keep up with the scorpions, it is all the power of the Lord of Rock City. Therefore, when the strong man is contacted, the Lord of Rock City and Manager Jett can take the lead in questioning and give priority to throwing an olive branch. ”

"Tracking this is what the Lord of Rock City should do." Also in the south, a middle-aged man retorted to him, "We are an alliance after all, an alliance of companies in the western region. It doesn't matter who discovers the ownerless powerhouse, as long as the powerhouse has no intention of submitting to their company. The company that discovered the strong man is obliged to report the traces of the strong man. ”

"Your words are too profitable.." The strong man in the west shook his head, "If the people from Rhodes don't say it, what can we do?" ”

"It's all about interests, and we will form an alliance!" The middle-aged man sneered, "Also, if my company has something to hide and doesn't tell you, what will happen to you?" ”

"It must be questioning you." The young man took out a piece of tin foil with a precious piece of chewing gum in it, "Also, the company that betrayed the alliance will be removed from the alliance." ”

"Then you can kill them .." The middle-aged answered, "Reap their benefits." The rest of our companies split it equally. It will be one step closer to the mid-level company. ”

"Hey, guys, my Jett isn't scared!" On the side of the Rock City Lord, Manager Jett smiled when he saw that they meant something like intimidating him, and took the radio to pick up the conversation, "I think we should do something now, we can ask anyone first, instead of discussing here for a day and a night!" Don't you want to go home before it gets dark, before this damn cold weather arrives, make a warm cup of coffee and watch TV? ”

"Manager Jett is right!" The strong man laughed when he heard Jett's anger, "I found a game disc from the last century yesterday, it's very cool to play, and when I go back, I'll burn a copy for you." ”

"I hope it's not a funeral post." The young man laughed, waved his hand, and asked the driver to drive forward.

The Lord of Rock City took out a compass and checked Jiang Cang's position to ensure that the powerhouses of the other eight companies would not go astray.

The young man chewed gum, felt the freshness in his mouth, and turned off the walkie-talkie, "A bunch of mercenary crumbs." ”

'Buzzing' cars.

In the valley, the radio in the nine convoys was silent, save for the 'snort' of wheels running over the weeds.

Just for a moment.

Jiang Cang outside the cave didn't use eagle vision, just looked at it with the naked eye, and saw nine convoys around him heading towards him.

And while they were driving, they saw Jiang Cang outside the cave, and after seeing the corpse of the thorn beast, they stood up in the car and waved to Jiang Cang, saying that they and the others had no purpose.

Because the discerning people can see that Jiang Cang, a strong man, seems to have just experienced a battle and killed a thorn beast that doesn't know how strong it is, then the next step must be to hunt for treasure.

It's a bit of a coincidence that they're here now, and it's easy to be suspicious.

It's closer.

After carefully looking at the corpse of the thorn beast next to Jiang Cang, they gasped.

They are not scorpions and others, treasure hunters who are on the knife, their company has detailed information, and they have also tracked down and recorded this thorn beast some time ago, and now they find that it seems to be the fierce beast that migrated from the north some time ago?

A thorn beast with strength at the S intermediate level?!

But now that they look at it again, the strong man and the others found that this fierce beast, which was difficult to deal with themselves, had died, and the fatal wound was in the skull, and he was even broken in the head with a blow!

Time.

Although these powerhouses are not in the same company, they look at each other and feel that if this fierce beast is killed by Jiang Cang, then Jiang Cang's strength assessment will be one level higher.

Therefore, they all want Jiang Cang to work for their company.

"Hello.." The convoy of people came to the vicinity of the cave, they were a little embarrassed, they didn't know what to say, they simply made a very formal opening statement, and introduced their names one after another, indicating that there was no malicious intent.

From beginning to end, their eyes occasionally looked at the cave behind Jiang Cang, but more often they looked elsewhere, proving that they and the others really didn't come for thorns.

Jiang Cang looked at them, and indeed felt that there was a faint traction, and he could join their company.

It's just that I want to go to the Midlands, and I've heard that there are more resources there, and what kind of thorn magic is it in big cities?

It is impossible to accept the invitation of these nine companies and be tied to their rules.

I don't know how much time this world has, and I can't waste it here, because if I waste it, I probably won't be able to accomplish my goal of 'progress'.

"Mr. Jiang.. We've packed it up.."

At the same time, when Jiang Cang was thinking and thinking about how to refuse.

With the sound of excitement, the scorpion who went to the cave to look for thorns and others came out with a leather bag.

It's just that when they suddenly saw this scene surrounded by people, they were suddenly stunned.

Did you come across a truncated beard?

The scorpion was on guard, but when he and the team members looked at the people of the nine companies again, they found that there were many famous and strong people here, and as treasure hunters, of course they knew these masters.

What are you doing when you go out to do errands, I'm afraid that I won't know you in advance, and it's easy to offend.

Then why did they come, and how did they find themselves and others?

Silence, the skin bag of the scorpion and the others was filled with thorns, four ordinary thorns the size of a fist, I thought it was a good thing, but who knew that such a thing had happened.

But as soon as the scorpion and others came out and spoke, it was considered to break the calm and silence.

Because he knew Jiang Cang, the Lord of Rock City was the first to speak, and explained to Jiang Cang respectfully: "Mr. Jiang, these fifty-three friends are from eight companies in the western region. ”

The Lord of Iwaki said, seeing that everyone was smiling and nodding, he also smiled, "Everyone is a guest from afar, why don't you go back to the nearest Iwacheng together, and I will entertain everyone to have a dinner.."

"Lord Iwaki Castle." The young man's smile suddenly stopped, "I think your previous sentence is very correct, and there is no need to say this sentence of the guest later." ”

"I feel the same way." The middle-aged man nodded approvingly.

The strong man squinted his eyes and glanced at Manager Jett and the others, cleared his throat with 'cough', and said solemnly to Jiang Cang: "The purpose of our nine companies coming here."

When the strong man said this, he first looked at the bag in the hands of Scorpion and the others, and then continued: "Mr. Jiang and Mr. Scorpion, don't misunderstand, our original intention of coming here is not for the so-called thorns, but to invite Mr. Jiang Cang to join our company. Of course, everything depends on what Mr. Jiang means, which one of our alliances will join? But I believe that our company is treated with the best! I will definitely be satisfied with Mr. Jiang. ”

The strong man's words fell, and although the other company representatives scoffed at the strong man's words, they also nodded one after another, and began to introduce their own company while releasing an olive branch to Jiang Cang.

Anyway, in their minds, even if Jiang Cang doesn't join his own company, at least he is a member of the 'Western Alliance'.

Naturally, they will be jealous of everything, but on the surface, if they want to show the generosity of their company, Jiang Cang can join whichever company they want.

At this time, it seemed to the scorpion and others that they were very envious of Jiang Cang's treatment, and let nine well-known companies in the western region send people over, and there was no one on this card!

The conditions are still arbitrary, and Mr. Jiang can ask for a sky-high price!

But Jiang Cang heard what they said, to be honest, whether there is a guide task or not, this cooperation is indeed possible.

But don't label yourself indiscriminately, before you say who to rely on, you were labeled as 'Western League' in advance?

If you really want to take refuge, no matter which company you go to in the future, it will represent the 'Western Alliance', if you go to the central part of the country, or the rest of the region, can you please in this world with many forces?

This is really an enemy from the beginning, enemies in all regions.

Although they thought of him as a 'sleeper', he had figured it out in the past few days.

Regions are in competition with each other, and if they want to be labeled as 'Western Alliance', they will be excluded.

Or that is the way to choose a guide, which side to turn to at the beginning is not neutral.

But taking refuge is also the safest, at least there is a person covering it from the beginning.

Otherwise, 'neutral chaos', it doesn't touch anywhere, it's obviously looking for trouble.

People kindly invite, but if you don't come, you just don't give face.

The reason is as simple as that, people have seven emotions and six desires, and if their face is lightened, they must be angry.

Now look at their posture.

Jiang Cang looked left and right, good guy, the convoys of these nine companies have stuck the surroundings tightly, and if they don't make a decision, it seems that they can't go, they can't go?

I didn't think anything before, but now that I think about it, if I go to which world and refuse the invitation of the guide, it seems that I will offend the guide first, at least I will be remembered. ’

To sum up, if the Primordial One wants to show that he doesn't need a guide, he must first defeat the guide to prove that he can be independent.

"I know your company." Jiang Cang looked at everyone and interrupted their words.

Everyone also looked at Jiang Cang, not angry, but looking forward to it, did this strong man have the answer to which family to turn to?

They looked at each other, who did the flowers fall to?

But after Jiang Cang paused, he said something that surprised everyone,

"Can I go?"

"Let's go?"

"Where is Mr. Jiang going?"

Everyone was curious and incredible, but the same body didn't get out of the way.

It was also that they had already discussed, and it was impossible for this natural powerhouse to let go and let the hostile forces win him over.

Even if it's killing.

This world is like this, if the strong are not their own people, there are only enemies that they may become in the future.

The world is very big, and the circle of the strong is very small, and they will eventually meet.

Therefore, even if Jiang Cang does not join any company, Jiang Cang must be allowed to join the Western Alliance, and he will appear as a free man, a free man marked with a regional identity.

Maybe Jiang Cang will come back to them when he can't move an inch in other regions in the future.

It was the persecution of interests and the persecution of survival that made Jiang Cang finally make the answer to his choice.

There are many such examples.

Strong men and young people are.

"You can go." Manager Jett looked at Jiang Cang, and also said something that seemed to be a compromise, but in fact, he was secretly thinking, "But you must join the alliance, as a treasure hunter, and join the Western Alliance." You are also a free one. ”

"Is this a compulsion?" Jiang Cang asked rhetorically, "I know that if I join the Western Alliance, then in other regions..."

"Yes, it must." The strong man was sure, moving his wrists, his attitude was obviously different from before, and he also knew that as long as the strong man made a decision, he basically couldn't change it, so he didn't have something to say, "Join the alliance and leave." Either choose a company to join. Because we can't be sure that you will join our hostile forces when you travel to the rest of the territory in the future. We don't want to have one more enemy in vain, so Mr. Jiang will put himself in his shoes and be considerate of us. ”

"Then do you have the understanding of me?" Jiang Cang smiled, "Friend, you are robber logic. ”

"No.." Manager Jett retorted, "It's a matter of interest between the strong, a condition of conversation." ”

"We don't have much to talk about." Jiang Cang didn't say anything and was ready to leave.

But at the same time, the thorn magic fluctuated nearby, but the strong man and the young man suddenly stepped forward, and the weeds on the ground exploded, wanting to capture Jiang Cang!

Jiang Cang stood in place, reached out with his left hand, and dispersed the weeds in the air nearby, and with a flick of the young man's arm, he used his aura to push, making him, an S-class powerhouse, make a circle, and the thorn magic on the surface of his body dissipated, and he retreated into the crowd.

At the same time, Jiang Cang took out the dagger in his right hand, which was an inch long and an inch strong, and stopped in front of the strong man's neck, making his body pause.

The weeds fell near the 'rustle', and many people in the company who wanted to come forward were stunned when they saw this scene.

"Who wants to try?" Jiang Cang saw the strong man raise his hands high, took a few steps back, and then his left hand was slightly bent, holding the dagger, and he was in front of everyone, "You all come, the nine strong men are all up, and they are not my Jiang Cang's opponents." And we just have different ideals, there is no right or wrong. I'll stop here, but come again, don't blame me Jiang Cang for being ruthless and killing half of your powerhouses in the Western Alliance. ”

"Mr. Jiang.." When Manager Jett and the others heard Jiang Cang's words, they were afraid, and they felt that Jiang Cang was infected by thorns and had a strange personality, and if he could subdue the strong men in an instant, it might really kill them!

But they also showed a look of incredulity, like a final affirmation,

"Mr. Jiang.. Are you going to make enemies of the entire Western Union? ”

"So what?" Jiang Cang was curious, "According to your logic, I don't care if I join you or them." You will all think that I, Jiang Cang, don't know how to lift, and I have also offended everyone except you. Why don't you be happy, what if you are all offended? It's not much for your family to protect me. ”

Jiang Cang's words fell, and when he saw that everyone didn't step forward, he smiled, "I think the world is so big, there is always a place for me Jiang Cang." ”
