Chapter 579: Two Other Newcomers
After leaving the house, on the way to his destination, Stephen stopped by and K· K explained something about Zheng Shu.
In this regard, K· K's attitude was: "Sounds good, have you investigated his background?" ”
"I've investigated, but I haven't found any information related to this person, whether it's through my channels or other channels." Stephen sat in the passenger seat and shook his head.
"No information?" K· K raised an eyebrow, "Could it be a human from another world?" ”
"It's not impossible, now our intelligence network on the other side of the world has not been established, so there will indeed be loopholes. But as far as I know, if this person is really from another world, then we probably won't be able to find any information related to him. ”
Although there are all kinds of complete laws on the other side, basically every race follows the laws of its own race.
Among them, humans from other worlds are a relatively special race.
Humans are not the native race of the other world, and most of them are the descendants of warlocks who crossed from the human world to the other world by accident.
In this context, the number of human beings is not large, but the average strength is terrifyingly strong, coupled with the appearance of thirteen kings like Phimtor later, the status of the human race in the other world is also quite peculiar.
Although no one dares to mess with it, the human race itself seems to be scattered, and there is no unified state or city-state in the other world.
In this context, it is quite acceptable for a ridiculously strong warlock to pop out of a certain horn in the human race of the human race in another world, and the only drawback is that it is completely impossible to investigate his past.
"That's not really good news." K· K "tsk" a little.
"I thought we would have a warlock behind us in the future, so you can work hard, so I can find someone to take the pressure off of me! Every time I am your backup, I am always frightened when I am alone, for fear that I will not be able to hold back. ”
Stephen smiled awkwardly, but didn't refute it.
K· K's ability is relatively special.,It's one of the few people who can play their special abilities with bullets.,And he's also a top-level sniper.,You can even call it a gun god.,Such a person as a backup is naturally reassuring.。
But because of this ability, she has been traveling around the world to help people with various tasks.
Although now nominally and now nominally under Lebra, in reality he is more of a helper of Lebra.
As the so-called main c iron of the flowing water is assisted, if you really want to say it, Stephen is better than K· K wants to find a new backup for Lebra to make up for K· When K is away, there is a vacancy in the backup when Lebra dispatches the mission.
"How long can you stay here this time?" Stephen suddenly thought of this question.
"I'm not going to leave for a short time, I've already moved here." K· K smiled.
Not only Stephen, but even Klaus, who had been concentrating on driving since just now, couldn't help but turn his gaze to K· K。
"What about your family?" Stephen was not only not happy when he heard this, but his brows furrowed.
"Of course, I brought it together, my child is too young, I can't let him be separated from his mother for too long." K· K said it for granted.
"Then you ......"
"Of course I know the risks." K· K interrupted Stephen, "I was mentally prepared when I chose to get married, and my family understands it. ”
Stephen was silent for a moment, saying no more, just nodding.
However, Stephen stopped talking, which does not mean that K· K didn't want to speak: "You haven't said what our mission is this time?" ”
"It's actually no task, it's just two newcomers here, so I arranged for you to get to know each other, and I was supposed to arrange for you to meet at the headquarters, but it's not very convenient at the headquarters recently."
"Ah, that's right." Recalling Zheng Shu, who didn't treat himself as a stranger lying on the sofa at all, K· K nodded clearly.
"It's not easy, there are finally new people, what are they good at?"
Speaking of this, Stephen looked at K· K, there was a smile in his eyes again: "You are absolutely satisfied with this newcomer who came this time, the other party is good at weapon preparation, and he is an old friend that I finally pulled over, and I can find him for questions about weapon preparation in the future." ”
"Haha! Great, you guy finally got a job done! ”K· K was visibly happy, "It's not easy, I finally don't have to help you maintain weapons in the future!" ”
After parking the car, the three of them turned around the dark alley and came to an inconspicuous underground shop.
Knock knock!
"Patrick, I'm coming."
Knocking on the door, Stephen didn't wait for a response from the people inside, but said hello and pushed the door open and walked in.
Behind the door was a small hut that looked a little messy at the moment, with all sorts of miscellaneous luggage and dangerous utensils placed on the side, and it looked like it hadn't had time to tidy up.
Hearing a knock on the door, a tall man walked out from behind the door next to the front desk, with a cold and hard face, somewhat messy black hair, and a black sunglasses on his glasses.
After seeing Stephen, the man showed a hearty smile:
"It's been a long time since I saw Stephen, I was going to look for you, but I didn't expect you to find it yourself."
"There's something going on, so I'm bringing them to you in advance."
The man nodded, looked around the room, and looked a little embarrassed to see the cluttered house:
"You also saw it here, but it hasn't been sorted out yet, and there is no place for you to sit."
"It's okay, this time, let's get to know each other."
Stephen nodded, moved his body away, and reached out to the man to explain to the two behind him:
"He's Patrick Smith, and he's a pretty good engineer, and I'm talking about the weapons planner of the future Lebra.
Patrick, this is my boss I told you about, Klaus. This is K· K……”
Stephen's introduction was not finished, and after hearing K· After the K name, Patrick's eyes lit up.
"Thinking that I could still meet such a big person, Stephen, you didn't tell me that there was this 'gun god' in Lebra when you called."
"Oh hahahaha, I didn't expect anyone to remember my title, it's really shy!"
Although he said so, K· K laughed unusually arrogantly.
"But I've heard of your name, Patrick, the world's top engineer, and a first-class weapons designer, and many of the guns I use are from your designs."
"After the award, I'm just a coward, because I'm afraid of death, that's why I choose to do this job and hand over the dangerous work to others.
And I don't dare to call myself a top engineer when I come to the city, there are so many things in the city that I am not familiar with, and it looks like I will have to re-learn for a while.
But if it's just a normal weapon, I'll be able to help you maintain it at any time. ”
The group chatted with each other for a while, and suddenly there was a sound of falling instruments in the room that Patrick had just come out of.
"What's wrong?"
Patrick walked briskly into the room, and after a while he came out again.
But when Patrick came out, he was followed by a petite girl with blond hair and blue eyes.
"You...... Daughter? Stephen hesitated.
"Of course not! I'm only in my early thirties, and I can tell that the two of us are not much older than each other! Patrick immediately retorted.
"You're only thirty?!"
Stephen, who had always had a serious expression, couldn't help but show a shocked look, not only him, but even K· K's eyes widened as well.
"I thought he was over forty."
"I actually thought he was retired when I invited him."
"Hey! You two! I can hear you!! ”
Fortunately, the more stable Klaus quickly stopped the farce, and the little girl who followed Patrick also had a chance to introduce herself.
"My name is Nika, Nika Kovalenko, and I'm Patrick's assistant."
"Don't look at Nika's age, but she's a genius! Through my guidance, her weapon conditioning skills are close to when I was younger. ”
Speaking of his assistant, Patrick was full of pride.
Now the thing he is most proud of now is that he once discovered Nika, a top mechanical genius, on the battlefield.
"Hello, Miss Nika." Although Klaus looked vicious, he greeted Nika like a gentleman.
"Hello, Mr. Klaus, please take care of me in the future."
Although Nika doesn't look very old, she copes with it very well, and even in the face of Klaus's very vicious-looking face, she still doesn't have the slightest fear.
"Where, we are, and our weapons and equipment will trouble you in the future."
"You're welcome, by the way, I've actually always had a question."
"What?"
"I already know the names of the three of you, but the last one has never been introduced." Nika gestured to a figure behind the three Klaus.
"Huh?"
Stephen was stunned for a moment, suddenly thought of a possibility, turned around vigilantly, and sure enough, he saw Zheng Shu's figure leaning on the door frame and digging his nostrils.
"Why are you here?! When did it come? ”
"Huh? The exact time is probably after you enter this door. Your vigilance is too weak, and you will have to strengthen your training in the future! ”
After digging out his nostrils for a long time, he didn't take out anything, Zheng Shu regretfully withdrew his fingers, reached out and patted Stephen's shoulder.
"Isn't that what has been with us since the beginning?!" Stephen's face darkened, "What is your purpose in following us?!" ”
"Isn't he one of yours? I saw that he was following you all the time, and I thought he was one of yours. As soon as Patrick heard this, his footsteps began to move towards the room inside.
"Strictly speaking, we can only be considered collaborators now." Zheng Shu took the initiative to wave his hand at Patrick and said hello, "Zheng Shu, meet for the first time." ”
Looking at Stephen's darkening face and the soles of his shoes that began to diffuse with ice mist, Zheng Shu sighed, reached out and pressed it, and "pressed" back the ice that was about to emanate from the soles of his feet.
"Okay, okay, don't be so surprised, the reason why I'm here is to tell you that the circuit of the space technique of the Lebra headquarters building has been set up, so I want to ask when the final payment will be paid.
In addition, because I changed the circuit 'slightly', the moment the space technique was completed, the entire Lebra had already entered a certain closed state, and it was impossible to return to the company under normal circumstances. That's why I'm here to give you initial permissions, and you'll be able to handle the situation yourself when you get back to the building. ”
Zheng Shu walked to Klaus's side as he spoke, and with a casual hand, a complex magic circle converged on the back of Klaus's hand out of thin air.
Stephen looked at Zheng Shu with a little headache and gritted his teeth, but still responded to Zheng Shu's question:
"I know, I'll do the acceptance when I get back, and if it's okay, I'll arrange Jane's task schedule as soon as possible to make sure I have enough time to trade with you. Rest assured, you will be contacted soon. ”
"That's so much appreciated...... Ah, by the way, there's no need to rush too much, I also have things to deal with in a short period of time, at least not here for the last week or two. ”
Halfway through the words, Zheng Shu changed his tone as if he knew something, and after casually saying hello to a few people present, he tore open the spatial crack with his bare hands and stepped in.
"If I'm not mistaken, did this guy tear up the space with his bare hands just now? Are there all such monsters in Hersharemz? Patrick stiffly turned his head to look at Stephen.
After a moment of silence, Stephen shook his head heavily: "Although I haven't seen a similar enemy so far, I'm not sure if people like him are not very common in that world. ”
"You didn't say this when you invited me, such a high risk, remember to add money to me!"
It's not just Patrick, K· K felt that his facial muscles seemed to be a little stiff as well: "To explain in advance, if I fight this guy, I am not sure that I will be able to hit him." ”
"Then we just have to expect him to be our friend." Stephen seemed to think of being hostile to Zheng Shu, and his face became darker and darker.
"Don't worry, Stephen."
A hand patted him on the shoulder, and when he turned his head to look, it was Klaus, who had been silent since just now: "I will communicate with him." ”
