BXBX NOVEL Chapter 103: Dispute
Chapter 103: Dispute
The leader was a big black man named “Sean” with a face full of beard, but he spoke very gently, giving people a sense of orderly manner. He said that he had been a fire chief and joined the army.
Originally, Mad Dog had been trying to get him into his core members, but because Sean felt that Mad Dog’s behavior and vision were incompatible with him, so he never joined him. Unexpectedly, this saved his life instead.
The other was a mixed-race girl with short hair, youthful, lively and sexy body shape. She was called Shania, and she was still a college student. But she had strong coordination and organizational abilities; she had organized many large-scale school events, and she was also good at taekwondo.
It was worth mentioning that it was because of her organizational abilities that she also became a core member of Mad Dog. Fortunately, she was late for the meeting on the day of Mad Dog’s meeting, so she was lucky to be spared.
The was another team member called Wild Cat, but he seemed to be doing a mission now, so he wasn’t free to participate in the team forming ceremony.
Fang Linyan didn’t have any trouble joining the team. On the one hand, he had the bronze badge that this small team currently needed. On the other hand, the power he showed was quite strong.
For example, the protective gears he wore cost a few platinum coins; they were all fine products on the market. Another example was the unique Governor’s Roar that he deliberately wore on his waist. Just by looking at its appearance, they knew that its power wasn’t simple!
Next, setting up a temporary team was really simple. They just had to ask the Space about the general process in their mind. First, there should be at least 3 people, then the 3 people extended their fingers to touch each other fingers. A temporary team contract would appear. They just had to sign with their contestant numbers on the contract.
Fang Linyan checked the contract and found that it was written in great detail:
Team members cannot attack each other,
Some missions are marked (team), so as long as 1 person in the team completes it, then all members of the team can complete it.
When team members fight together (the distance between each other is no more than 50 meters), they can get a 10% increase in defense.
At close range (within 100 meters), team members can communicate directly through the dedicated team channel. The outsiders can’t hear it.
Therefore, Fang Linyan simply signed his contestant number on the team contract and officially joined the temporary team.
To recruit new members, only the team leader of the temporary team needs to apply. After more than half of the team members agree and sign the contract, it will be effective.
However, no one knew that Fang Linyan secretly inquired about the conditions for exiting the temporary team while signing the contract: it only costs 1000 common points!
***
After joining the temporary team, the light on Fang Linyan’s chest disappeared, and he could no longer see the safe area on the square. Fortunately, having 3 more teammates around made him feel more relieved.
The other 3 were obviously kind to Fang Linyan. Sean confided some secrets to Fang Linyan that he didn’t know.
It turned out that after everyone entered the trial, they would encounter a random event. Then, a certain reward would be given according to the contestant’s response to the event.
For example, the reason Shania was able to get the black market reward because she encountered a random event after entering the trial. It was actually a conflict between 2 wanderers. In the end, she took advantage of their conflict and found a few pieces of ores in their bags. She sold them directly to the Space and got 2300 common points.
The random event encountered by Wild Cat was quite unique. He actually encountered a mutated scorpion caught by a trap!
This scorpion was very huge, and it looked blueish and terrifying. If it weren’t caught in a trap, 10 Wild Cat would not be enough to kill it. It was full of treasures:
The scorpion meat could be eaten; the scorpion venom could be used to treat rheumatism and even cancer; the scorpion tail could be used for soaking wine; its carapace could make armor. This thing was in great demand in the market.
After Wild Cat killed this thing, he sold it outside Yangfan City. He was very forthright in this (of course, it could be possible that he did not understand the market price at all). This scorpion was still very popular, so he got to know a man called Na Muke when selling it.
Na Muke was the core member of the local gang “Eight Primal Orders”. Their boss had a good relationship with the commander of the Iron Fist Brotherhood. They did all the dirty businesses that was inconvenient for the Iron Fist Brotherhood to do. The 2 sides were cooperating well. Therefore, in such a relationship, the Wild Cat naturally joined the “Eight Primal Orders”. He was doing quite well in the gang. He even found a way to get the contribution points of the Iron Fist Brotherhood.
Therefore, to complete the main mission, they had to let Wild Cat to redeem the Iron Fist Brotherhood’s Type B equipment/item. Everyone had to gather contribution points for him.
It was just that if there was no bronze badge provided by Fang Linyan, Wild Cat couldn’t even enter the outer area of the Iron Fist Brotherhood. Even if they had enough contribution, they couldn’t go in to exchange directly. Instead, they could only do it through connections, but they would have to pay an extra 20%! This was very troublesome.
This was why Goat was striving to get Fang Linyan to join. With Fang Linyan’s bronze badge and Wild Cat now had enough contribution points, he could go directly in to exchange the mission item without being exploited or worrying about not finishing the main mission.
Therefore, they went to find Wild Cat, telling him to put his tasks aside and finish the main mission for the team first.
Soon, without any trouble along the way, the 4 people came to the grocery market where the “Eight Primal Orders” gang was located.
During the chat on the road, Fang Linyan discovered something that annoyed him very much.
His teammate had been in for 5 days!!
The preparation time for his teammates was almost 100 hours, but he himself had only 24 hours!
Fang Linyan didn’t know the reason for this situation. After all, he came in forcibly this time, and it seemed that he had made a lot of benefits in 811 World through Fang’s identity before, so he dared not to mention it to the others and suffered silently.
After arriving at the grocery market, Goat was obviously very familiar with this place. He directly spoke something to someone, then he gave 5 copper coins to the person to pass on a message.
Soon, Wild Cat appeared in front of Fang Linyan. This was a guy with a flat head, muscular, cold eyes, thin lips, and even a scar on his face. He looked unruly.
His gaze looking at Fang Linyan was rather unkind, but his eyes were hot looking at Shania.
After introducing each other, Wild Cat also signed the temporary team contract and officially joined the team. The first thing he did after joining the team was reaching out to Fang Linyan,
“Hey, give me the badge.”
Fang Linyan glanced at him, then he smiled suddenly,
“No.”
Wild Cat’s face turned gloomy suddenly, and he sneered,
“Are you putting shame on me?”
The atmosphere in the team suddenly became tense. Fang Linyan put his hand on the “Governor’s Roar” around his waist and said faintly,
“First, I don’t care who you are! Second, I talked to Goat before joining the group. He said that he will give me the slot to go to the black market, and I will give him the first slot to complete the main mission! Now you want to get the badge from me??”
At this time, Wild Cat noticed Fang Linyan’s unusual “Governor’s Roar“. His eyes were keen. Knowing that such a specially shaped gun must be powerful! The strength of Fang Linyan who could hold this gun could be imagined, but if he couldn’t accept backing down now.
Fortunately, at this moment, Team Leader Sean stood up and shouted,
“Both shut up!”
Then Sean looked at Goat and said,
“Goat, is what Wrench said true?”
Goat was stunned, and he said a little embarrassingly,
“Ah? It was I who proposed to give up the slot to go to the black market to Wrench… Because you know, I have to concentrate my resources on one point, so I’m only making up the number for going. It was Wrench who proposed to let me complete the main mission first. If it doesn’t work, it doesn’t matter if I finish it a little behind.”
Sean said very simply,
“Goat has sacrificed a lot for the team, and it’s time to compensate him. In this way, Wrench, you give Goat the badge. Wildcat, you give Goat the dog tag that records the contribution points, then Goat will go in to exchange!”
Half of the contribution points that Wild Cat owned were gathered by Shaun, Shania and Goat, so he couldn’t refuse it. He also got an excuse to back down. He dejectedly gave the dog tag to Goat, then Fang Linyan also gave the bronze badge to Goat. He said excitedly,
“This… how can I do this?”
Sean patted his shoulder and said,
“Let’s go, we will take you to the gate of the Iron Fist Brotherhood’s fortress.”
Then Sean turned to Fang Linyan and said sternly,
“Originally, we do not allow such a private transaction between 2 people, but since this time it was an agreement reached before you joined the team, I will approve this. However, as for the price to let Goat be the first to receive the mission reward, you will be the last one.”
TL: Maybe his aim is to get the last one so that they don’t know that he had already finished the mission…
