readx;? Early the next morning, before the sun had risen, Ian and his party gathered at the gates of the city. After waiting for about a quarter www.biquge.info of an hour, they heard the sound of horses' hooves, looked up, and saw a carriage approaching from the west. Soon it came to them, then stopped.
Then, Aris and Quintina were the first to step out of the carriage. As Dennis had guessed last night, Aris and Quintina had everything ready, including their clothes, and had changed into looser hunting suits suitable for entering the jungle. They also carried a small backpack with a dark green scythe hanging from it.
"Morning. ”
Quintina greeted everyone with a smile, but only Ian replied. Dennis has always had no good feelings for the law enforcement team, Green is eating breakfast, and Nicole is looking at the two people who are getting out of the carriage.
For the indifference of others, Quintina could only shrug her shoulders helplessly.
In addition to Aris and Quintina, two people got out of the carriage. An old man and a young man, all heavily armed. The old man wore half-moon framed eyes, and looked extraordinarily old, while the young man was still a little young, or perhaps a little shy, and kept his head down.
Seeing this, Dennis's brows furrowed tightly, and he leaned over to Ian's side and said, "That's not right." ”
"What's wrong?"
"In the report that Lord Wang gave you, in addition to the two members of the law enforcement team, there should be only one businessman. "Now there's one more." ”
Ian reacted at this point, and then looked at Quintina suspiciously, hoping that the latter would give an explanation.
"Don't look at me, I can't help it. Quintina spread her hands, "I know the orders of Lord Lord better than you, but this young man is a disciple of this old man, and the old man must take him with him, or he will not go with us." I have no choice but to bring him over and let the captain make your decision. ”
"Captain?" Ian was stunned, "We still have a captain, who is the captain?" ”
"Ahem. Nicole coughed twice deliberately, "Well, you're the captain." ”
"I'm the captain?" Ian was startled, "I didn't know. ”
"This kind of thing, it should be needless to say. In the hunter squad, the highest-ranking person is usually the captain. If there are two hunters of the same level, it is more seniority, or it is voted on by the team members. Now, you are the only one in our team who is a high-level hunter, so you don't need to compare qualifications or votes at all, and you are directly the captain. ”
"And that kind of statement?"
"It's common sense. ”
Ian was depressed, he didn't know this common sense. At the mention of the captain, he couldn't help but think of Diff Myers and Vincent Yan Xiu, one was the captain of the King-Killing Squad and the other was the captain of the Sophia. Both of them are leaders of the same team, and although their styles are different, they don't seem to end well.
Dev Myers was killed by Naga, and Vincent Yanxiu's right hand was bitten off by a giant serpent. If I were the captain, I wouldn't end up like them.
Dennis saw that Ian was hesitating, so he walked up to him and said softly: "The current captain, anyway, the four of us, it doesn't matter who is the captain. It's just that you can't let the two people from the law enforcement team, otherwise it will be very troublesome. ”
Ian felt reasonable, the four of them, it really didn't matter who was the captain. Anyway, he was the captain, and he didn't think about commanding anyone, but if he let two people from the law enforcement team command, he really didn't know what chaos would happen, especially Dennis was particularly repulsive to the people in the law enforcement team.
"Okay, then I'll be the captain and I'll be the captain. ”
Ian felt he had to do his bidding, so he walked over to the old man, "Hey, old man. ”
"It's closer than me. The old man glanced at Ian coldly, "I just put this sentence here, and if you don't let me bring my disciples in, I won't go with you." ”
Hey, the temper is quite big. Ian felt his hot face pressed against his cold ass, which immediately aroused his anger.
"Well, dead old man. Ian directly called out the title that made the old man blow his beard and stare at him, "It doesn't matter if you bring your disciples or not, I don't care." Anyway, here, the Rose Lord's order is indeed not so binding. So you can bring it if you want, but I'm going to say it."
Ian paused and said coldly: "You should also know about the mission six years ago, so I might as well tell you that our team this time is much weaker than the team six years ago, so it is already very difficult for us to protect you alone." As for your apprentice, if we can't protect it, you'd better understand. ”
"You can rest assured, Your Excellency Hunter. The old man said stiffly, "My disciple and I don't need your protection. On the contrary, it's you, it's better to think clearly, once you enter the dense forest, who will protect whom, you don't know yet. ”
Ian felt like he was touching a nose of ash again. Why is this old man so tough, he still refuses to compromise after saying this, but threatens him. He couldn't find the bottom of the stairs, so he had to go back to Dennis's side.
"You're a good captain. Nicole's eyes turned into crescent moons when she saw all this, "It's too intimidating." ”
"Come less, come less, let's go. ”
Ian felt his face panic and hurriedly gave the order to go.
"Quintina, isn't it inappropriate to have this guy as the captain. Arris, who was walking at the back of the line, looked at Ian's back and asked with some concern, "I always feel that this guy is not very reliable." ”
"You can't always rely on your feelings. "He's not as simple as you see. ”
"Yes, but I always felt that he was too weak. Aris scratched his head, "Is this my delusion? We've seen other high-level hunters, and they're much stronger than him." ”
"So, you believe his words, we're weak?" Quintina raised an eyebrow.
"Compared to the team six years ago, this team is really weak. Aris replied honestly.
"Then why did Lord Lord send them to their deaths?" said Quintina, "The team from six years ago was wiped out, and if this time the team is weaker than the last time, why would you send them to die?"
Aris couldn't answer, he hadn't thought about it.
"Look, this guy, he's going to surprise us. Quintina whispered, and at the same time, this image came to her mind:
A young man in black, holding a dark golden long knife, galloped towards the dazzling golden pupils.
He's strong.
Quintina thought to herself.
