Chapter 547 Magneto
After Humphreys solemnly promised that he would complete the mission of spying on the island group's intelligence, Lu Chen asked him to rest. After all, there was still some time at night, so it was still quite uncomfortable to face a person who was trapped in thinking about the mission. Then, until the sun rose, Mark and his men finally came back after cleaning the battlefield.
There was no one missing, and the mercenaries also had satisfied smiles on their faces. Obviously, Mark did not disappoint and made the choice that was most beneficial to him.
"You don't need to tell me anything. You are their manager. All I want is an elite army that can complete the tasks and abide by my rules." Seeing Mark coming towards him, Lu Chen seriously talked about the excuse of "being lazy".
"Uh~Mr. Marquis, I want to report to you the results and benefits of cleaning the battlefield. Isn't this necessary?" Of course, Mark understood that his team had to be led by himself, and he did not intend to repay his work process to let Lu Chen decide on such a small matter. But now after hearing what he said, he was a little confused and didn't know who he should be responsible to.
"Ah? That's it~ of course I'm reporting to your superiors. Oh, I forgot, when you are not here, I have decided to have two general managers. Vales continues to serve as general manager of coastal defense. The person you want to report is him; but he is not here now, just tell Humphreys about the situation, and I asked him to be the general manager of logistics." He made a mistake in his self-righteousness, but fortunately arranged Humphreys' work, and Lu Chen concealed the past like this.
Thinking that the material problem is indeed related to logistics, Mark did not doubt it. After saluting Lu Chen, he went to Humphreys. But after a while, the two of them came together. The reason was that the number of income from the battlefield cleaning was huge. I didn't know how to distribute it. Especially for those four-star mercenaries. According to the standards announced by the mercenary union, the money was enough for them to hire for more than ten years. In addition, the two sets of armor equipped for everyone, if anyone wants to be safe, they will sell their equipment after escaping and spending their wealthy life.
Since the girls of the Red Thorn Flower unconditionally followed him through life and death, Lu Chen did not think of such a problem, and this kind of thing could not be done. Moreover, although these mercenaries followed him with their lives, it does not mean that they had trust in life after only a few days, unless they all had hopes or gratitude like Mark and Humphreys.
"Okay, do what you want, just as fair as possible. We have worked hard all night, so let's rest here today and set off tomorrow." This kind of thing is not temporary, and it will inevitably be more frequent in the future. After thinking, Lu Chen simply let go and gave the two of them time to deal with it.
If you have money, anyone will want to make the people around you live a better life. But the problem is that the difference between everyone will make the "average" itself unfair. Although there are not many people at present, Humphreys and Mark both understand that this kind of thing should be avoided as much as possible. Then, looking at Lu Chen who was unhappy, the two looked at each other and decided that they would take the responsibility themselves and leave.
However, the profit this time was really huge for the mercenaries and almost no danger. Everyone happily accepted the distribution of Mark and Humphreys. Many people even felt embarrassed because they had never killed a monster. After continuing to get two sets of equipment, they each felt indebted to Lu Chen. After discussing with him in private, some mercenaries with good relationships decided to follow him forever.
Lu Chen did not ask about this matter anymore. After helping the Wolf King to treat the wounded and bury its subordinates who died in battle, he led the strong team to survey the terrain along Lake Stane on the third day after the sun rose.
Although a day wasted, the remaining itinerary was greatly accelerated due to the addition of the wolf hunting pack. At the same time, I learned from the Wolf Hunting King that due to the backflow of sea water in the Andres Mountains, some poorly adaptable monsters left this home one after another. The monsters above the seventh level ran faster than anyone else. The strongest monster left behind was the Golden Jackal. Therefore, the desperados were able to hide in this originally deserted place.
As for the wolves, they gradually moved in after the situation in the Andres Mountains improved. However, at that time, the golden jackal beast had occupied the entire mountain range, and the war broke out, which continued until now. Due to the number and division of territories, wolves were at a disadvantage.
After a long time of work, the wolf hunting was originally an invader. The golden jackal beast was the victim of the indigenous people. After learning about this, Lu Chen became strange. However, when he thought that the organized and disciplined fifth-level monsters were beaten by the fourth-level monsters wandering around, he did not feel much guilt. Moreover, the golden jackal beasts that were wandering around and had no birth control were obviously locusts in the monsters. If they were not properly contained, they would cause great trouble to the biological chain.
There was nothing new in the next few days. Apart from occasionally seeing a few large water monsters of water monsters appearing in Lake Stagne, the entire survey journey was extremely boring. Even the Golden Jackal did not meet one again. The only thing worth caring about was Serra, who walked by the water without saying a word, but Lu Chen did not have the courage to be curious about her situation. However, Phoebe was still pretending to be "not at home" at this time.
I was thinking about when I would use Phoebe's divine body to cover up my breath. After walking around, Lu Chen, who returned to the mouth of Lake Stane, contacted Craig, who was on the Flying Whale, who was opposite the Diana River.
"Master, you are finally back. Wait, I will push the Flying Whale over." After receiving the message that Lu Chen was waiting across the river, Craig replied with excitement.
It was just that he couldn't imagine how Craig was going to push the boat in the river when he woke up. Lu Chen's forehead was covered with cold sweat and subconsciously replied: "Haha, I haven't seen you for a few days, when will you become humorous..." But before he finished speaking, he saw that the Flying Whale on the other side really began to move, and it was definitely ruled out that Craig was starting to move, because the Flying Whale didn't turn the bow at all, and it was all coming across horizontally.
"Chenchen, what's going on? Are you doing it? Or am I dazzled~" Verona's head was also knotted, and then what she heard was not Lu Chen's answer, but everyone's proof of her question.
"Yes~ Craig did it, I don't know what's going on, so I'd better ask him later." After swallowing, Lu Chen felt better answering Verona's question, and then he looked at this rare "Hengpiao".
Although it floated very slowly, the width of the river was always limited. After everyone was no longer surprised by this strange movement, the Flying Whale finally arrived at the shore where Lu Chen was, and then everyone jumped onto the deck curiously and searched for the answers like a treasure hunt.
But just when Lu Chen was about to rush to the bridge, with the sound of "Beware of everyone" coming from the sky, Craig hit the deck like a cannonball. Fortunately, Lu Chen was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He released a fighting spirit barrier in time the moment before he arrived, avoiding the accident of the Flying Whale being scratched. Before Craig stood up, he anxiously asked what was going on.
Craig couldn't answer what happened to his ability and how it came about, but he couldn't explain it immediately with his actions and looked at the almost omnipotent little master in front of him, looking forward to the answer.
Then, when Craig got all the small metal items on the mercenaries, he heard the expected answer from Lu Chen: "Magneto!"
