Chapter 47: Lost
"Can you tell me why?" Qin Lun asked suspiciously.
"An Apostle with a combat class is a notch more difficult than an Apostle without a combat class!" Kelly said lightly, "A lot of knowledgeable junior apostles procrastinate the inauguration process because they can gain gain in low-difficulty tasks. Of course, if you're comfortable with the difficulty of the current mission, then I didn't say it! β
"I see!" Qin Lun was thoughtful, raised his head and said sincerely: "Thank you for your advice!" β
"It's nothing, it's just common sense, it seems that you don't usually communicate much with other apostles." Kelly said calmly, "Professional apostles can't be alone forever, and later tasks require the whole team to work together, how can you be interested in joining my team?" β
"Join your team?" Qin Lun sighed slightly, knowing that he was still not low-key enough, which attracted the attention of the other party.
In the Apostolic City, it is taboo to listen to the messages of other apostles. In this regard, the intelligent race did a better job than the apostles, except for the apostles' own network, there was basically no way to get information from other apostles from the intelligent race.
The growth of the apostles is not in the normal range, and any apostle as long as he is alive may turn over. The grievances between the apostles have nothing to do with the intelligent race, and once the intelligent race is involved, the apostles' long-term revenge is enough to slowly bring the entire race to ruin.
This is the law of survival that the intelligent race has learned from the blood lesson for thousands of years, and no native race will disregard the survival of the race for some profit. Just like the Earth Federation, even if the superpower can use a nuclear bomb to destroy an enemy country at any time, no supreme leader will actually press the nuclear button.
The female apostle opposite Qin Lun was undoubtedly a high-level apostle, but she was also unable to get his personal information from the Moon Night Elf. Now inviting him to join "Lost", it is obvious that Qin Lun has just attracted her attention in some places.
"My team is called 'Lost', and although it is not the top few in the Devil's Horn, it is also in the top 10 in points, and currently has more than 200 members. I'm the vice-captain of one of the core sub-groups, and if you're willing to join 'Lost', I can make you a full member directly, eliminating the selection of peripheral members, you know, we only have less than thirty full members! Kelly said seriously.
"No, thank you, I already have a team. Although they are all newcomers, they are all from the same world as me and are familiar with each other, and I can't betray them! Qin Lun said with a happy face, "However, we do need guidance, I wonder if you can introduce some large team systems to me?" β
"Hehe, you're so greedy! I can't reveal the 'lost' information to outsiders, but every large team is pretty much the same, with the core members, the full members, and then the largest number of peripheral members. Kelly smiled dumbly, "You don't have to turn me down right now, this invitation will always be valid, maybe in the near future, you will rethink this proposal!" β
"Aren't you optimistic about our new team?" Qin Lun rolled his eyes and asked respectfully.
ββ¦β¦ Well, I think it's better for you to break up your own team and let the new people spread out to other big teams so that you can survive better. Kelly sighed and said, "Maybe it's a bit cruel to say that, but the ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny." Most of the rookie teams I've seen end up in mission worlds. Even if a few persisted, there were not many of the original old members left. β
"What's the reason for that?" Qin Lun frowned slightly, he vaguely realized what Kelly wanted to express.
"Experience...... The mission plot is ever-changing, and there are countless possibilities. No matter how talented an apostle is, as long as he is a newcomer, he will definitely make mistakes. Some mistakes can be remedied, while others are enough to destroy the team. Kelly said with a gloomy face, as if she remembered some of the past, "Before the team really matures, you will have to go through dozens of mission worlds, and you will inevitably encounter this kind of time!" β
Qin Lun fell silent, the team that was not united enough could not move forward, but the team of newcomers who were united enough would be wiped out at some point. Indeed, as Kelly said, sooner or later they will encounter some unsolvable problems.
However, will the team of killers be different? A glimmer of light flashed in Qin Lun's eyes!
"In fact, each team has a different style of doing things, and the rules are different. Some teams seem to be more arrogant and act unscrupulously, but in fact, they are very united internally, and arrogance is just a manifestation of the outside. There are also teams that are humble on the outside, but on the inside, they are full of mountains and are competitive......" Kelly let out a sigh of relief, as if to put aside her previous depression.
"Your team must be the epitome of brutality and unity on the inside!" Qin Lun smiled and quipped.
"Oh? Why do you think that? Kelly asked in surprise with an eyebrow raised.
"Hehe, there are a total of tens of thousands of apostles in the Devil's Horn, hundreds of apostle teams. However, to be able to have more than two hundred peripheral members, it must be a team that protects the calves, which will be favored by the junior apostles. Since the team is very protective of calves, it will naturally be arrogant externally and lenient internally! Qin Lun said lightly.
"You are indeed a smart man!" Kelly said meaningfully, "Think about my JianyΓ¬, and if your companions have your level, you might as well consider joining 'Lost' as well." Not all of them are full members, but at least they survived together. β
"I will consider your advice, thank you for your advice!" Qin Lun leaned over and saluted.
Turning off the video projection, Kelly smiles on her face and turns the pager back on to find a professional secretist on her team.
"Jack, tell the elven clan, our group is going to recruit a group of potential newcomers, and then you can help me track down which newcomer apostles those elven elders have notified!"
"Sister Kelly, this will damage our relationship with the Moonlit Elves!" A young face appeared on the other side of the projector.
"It's okay, don't you always brag that you're the number one thief in the team, just don't let them find out!" Kelly laughed wickedly.
"After all, they are elven elders, and I'm under a lot of pressure!" Jack said with a sad face, "If the regimental commander finds out, I will definitely eat the chop!" β
"I'll explain to the head of the regiment, do you kid do it?" Kelly raised her willow eyebrows and said with a fierce look.
"Okay, eldest sister, you have to make it clear to the head of the regiment!" Jack sighed weakly.
β¦β¦
After ending the correspondence, Qin Lun sat on the sofa and fell into deep thought. The female apostle's words make a lot of sense, he is confident in his mind, but so far, whether it is in the shattered starry sky or in the mission world, he has made several mistakes.
Poor perception of equipment, misjudgment of the difficulty of the mission, underestimation of the strength of the hostile characters, these mistakes have nothing to do with the mind, and are purely inexperienced. Although he has been involved in the first three missions to the Atlas, the luck component cannot be ignored.
He can't just rely on luck to go all the way, maybe he should be more active and promote the establishment of the killer team as soon as possible. As for Kelly's invitation, Qin Lun actually had no idea at all.
The team point ranking cannot fully represent the strength of the team, but it can stand out from the Devil's Horn with tens of thousands of apostles and hundreds of apostle teams, and "Lost" should be a fairly strong large team. This kind of large team has strict rules, whether it is good to enter or not, Qin Lun may not care, but it is definitely not suitable for Joey.
"It may take some time for those people to realize that they have to build a team of killers. Maybe before that, I should find a new team and try to see how to survive the annihilation! Qin Lun shook the wine glass in his hand to himself.
"Master, I'm back, Elder Beruses is here with me!" Didi's reminder came from outside the door.
"Oh!" Qin Lun's eyes lit up, and he stood up diligently, welcoming Beruses into the hall.
"I am really flattered by your welcome!" Beruses sat down with a wry smile and took the wine glass handed by Qin Lun, "It looks like I'm going to bleed heavily this time!" β
"Is it that obvious?" Qin Lun touched his nose in embarrassment, even if he was clever, he was still not tactful enough to deal with people, especially when dealing with an old fox like Beruses, he would be seen through at a glance.
"Hehe, I have learned your wit, compared to your wisdom and strength, your face and disguise are really far behind!" Berusese said with a grin.
Although it was only the second time he had dealt with, the old cunning demon did not show a sense of strangeness, and his tone made people involuntarily feel close, worthy of being the foreign affairs elder of the demon clan who was especially responsible for receiving the new apostle.
"Well, it's better to be honest with you!" Qin Lun sighed, his smiling face regained his indifference, "Please come over this time, I need some help!" β
"Of course, it is my privilege to serve an apostle like you." The smile on Beruses' face did not decrease, but a gleam flashed in his eyes, "However, can you tell me why you are looking for us Demon Clan?" I have the impression that you are leaning more towards the Moonlit Night Elves! β
Hearing Beruses' words, Qin Lun was silent for a while, and finally sighed, and said sternly: "The Moonlit Night Elves are the first intelligent race to give me heavy help after I entered the Broken Starry Sky, and the time in the Moonlight Forest was very beautiful, and I will not forget the friendship of the Elf Clan......"
"I guess there should be a 'but' after you." Beruses blinked his scarlet eyes and said with a smile.
"But...... After successfully touching the threshold of the profession, I found that unless I fully embraced the ideas and martial arts path of the Moonnight Elves, the support of the elves would be very limited, and they would not be able to meet some of my needs! Qin Lun said seriously.
"And we demon clans can, right?" Beruses narrowed his eyes and said slowly.
"Not only the demon clan, it should be said that the races of the chaos camp can be!" Qin Lun glanced at the old cunning demon lightly, even if he asked for help, he didn't want to be led by the nose.
"But I'm the most sincere, aren't I?" Beruses didn't seem to notice the spikes in Qin Lun's words at all, and asked with a smile, "So what kind of help can the Demon Clan provide you?" β
