Chapter 86: Human Mind
“This, this is Blood Orchid’s flower and fruit! Maybe it’s a type S product!”
Hearing these words, the rest of the people also stared at the backpack on Lieutenant Lucan’s waist; their breathing was a little quick and their eyes seemed to be scorching!
Now we are going to mention the team’s reward method. Strictly speaking, their organizational structure was also a mercenary model. Lieutenant Lucan picked up work from acquaintances of the Iron Fist Brotherhood and had the right to organize the team.
He was responsible for recruiting his subordinates, then discussing the rewards in advance. After completing a mission, he would send out the money once. Some captains who did things openly would take out an extra bonus to split evenly among the team after the mission was completed.
In this case, the Blood Orchid’s flower and fruit actually belonged to Lieutenant Lucan’s own trophies, so it was no wonder the rest of the people were jealous.
After Lieutenant Lucan jumped from the huge snake corpse, he obviously felt that the surrounding strange atmosphere. He immediately took out his gun and shot twice in the air, then he shouted,
“Assemble! I declare that the mission is over and we will return to the base. What are we standing here for! Maybe the big movement just now has alarmed the Reaper, do you want to be taken away and kept as livestock?”
The sound of the gunshot immediately shocked the people. Lieutenant Lucan was soaked with blood at this time. With his hideous appearance and the usual mighty presence, he held the scene immediately.
The team immediately recovered their senses as they ran over, counted the numbers and carried the wounded members. Although they were still unwilling, the situation was under control now.
At this time, the team quickly returned to the vehicle.
Hans, who was waiting impatiently, saw them returning without knowing the specific situation, then he asked in confusion,
“What happened? Why did everyone retreat? Did the mission fail… Ah!“
It turned out that Lieutenant Lucan kicked him before he could speak, staring at him viciously,
“Shut up! Go and do your own work!”
Hans was also taken aback when he saw Lieutenant Lucan’s body full of blood and murderous look. As he was about to ask a few more questions, Dolga dragged him over and said,
“Do not talk nonsense.”
Hans could only shut up honestly and got into the vehicle. Because most of the ammunition was used up, the inside of the car looked a little wider. Dolga started the vehicle and drove back. There was dead silence in the vehicle; no one spoke, and only heavy breathing could be heard.
Probably because the atmosphere at this time was a bit awkward and dull, Dolga who drove the car said solemnly,
“I have bad news to tell everyone that the injured Pais, Ann, and Deng Ke have all died unfortunately.”
Dolga’s original intention was to arouse everyone’s sorrow and curiosity, because Pais and An’en, who got sprayed by the venom, were hard to survive. They should be psychologically prepared. However, Deng Ke whose helmet got smashed should be able to survive. Logically, someone should immediately ask Deng Ke’s cause of death.
But Dolga overlooked 1 thing at this time. Everyone’s mind at this time was basically focused on the amazingly valuable Blood Orchid’s flower and fruit.
Under this kind of impetuous human mind, these people simply ignored Dolga’s death reports. Most of their thoughts were like this,
“What? Someone died again? Ah, oh,
if they died, they died. How can there be someone who can’t die? By the way, will we get a split for the Blood Orchid…”After driving in such a silent and awkward manner for about 10 kilometers, the vehicle swayed and stopped slowly. Lieutenant Lucan was most afraid that things would escalate as time passed. He immediately yelled annoyingly at Dolga who was driving the vehicle,
“What happened!?”
Dolga also frowned being yelled at, feeling very displeased. He said coldly,
“Break down.”
When he said that, he opened the door and jumped out of the vehicle to smoke.
The reason why this assembled car broke down was of course the trick done by Fang Linyan during the last maintenance. He knew that he had to guard against everyone.
…….This was a cruel and perilous apocalypse! He was very clear that if he lost his value, he would be abandoned as cannon fodder.
Fang Linyan was also good at observing the situation. Knowing that the atmosphere now seemed silent, but it was almost like the moment before the gunpowder keg was ignited. He should keep his presence as low as possible, so he immediately jumped out to repair as the vehicle stopped. Lieutenant Lucan felt very sulky; he could only kick on the tire with hatred.
As soon as the vehicle stopped, the rest of course got off to flex their bodies. After all, all the vehicles in this world didn’t account for the comfortability of the passengers.
Seeing that his subordinates gathered together in small groups to smoke, whispered to each other and occasionally glanced over with greedy and secretive eyes, Lieutenant Lucan only felt more irritable.
He wanted to scold him, but he found that even the deputy captain Dolga was sulkily smoking a cigarette next to him. If he really yelled, he would stand on the opposite side of everyone.
As soon as Lieutenant Lucan thought of this, his heart suddenly chilled; an indescribable fear surged from the bottom of his heart. He swallowed the words that came to his mouth abruptly, and he began to recover his logical thought.
Soon, Fang Linyan repaired the vehicle, and the team got into the vehicle, but now, they all had their ulterior motives.
Lieutenant Lucan was aware of the instability of the team at this time, so he planned to announce loudly that after returning to Yangfan City, he would hold a party for 3 days first, then he would let his subordinates enjoy a few nights with women. At least, he would give them something to look forward to.
However, he was a little slower in realizing that. Before he spoke, someone already took the lead!
It was Witt who spoke. This guy was a violent and straightforward person, and he didn’t have any scheming, so he just said with anger,
“Boss, this time we followed you out with our lives at stake. This time, you are lucky enough to make a fortune that is enough to retire, but you should at least share us a little bit!”
TL: How will the tense situation turn out? Will Lucan give them a share? Whose side is Fang Linyan on?
