Chapter 273: Reverse Thinking
Chapter 273: Reverse Thinking
Several policemen were shooting in panic, but the bullets didn’t seem to do anything to the giant monster. Instead, it was infuriated even more, causing it to lift the police car and throw it over!
Immediately after the image switched, a helicopter was flying fast in mid-air, but coyote of more than 5 meters long jumped out from the forest and pulled down the helicopter.
The last image was quite blurry. There was a small passenger ship running on the Mississippi River, then it sank bizarrely. Only a huge terrifying black shadow could be seen moving under the water, then leaving…
After seeing these images, the faces of the team leaders present became very ugly. Fortunately, Tana seemed to have guessed their thoughts and said,
“Don’t worry, mutated creatures of this level rarely appear. So far, we have only found 3. If you encounter similar ones, you can record the video data and retreat immediately.”
“We ask you to search, not to send you to death! Most of the mutated creatures you encounter are just changes in appearance, and their habits have not changed.”
“When we searched with helicopters, we found that they were still afraid of people. Even the roar of the helicopter’s rotor made them feel fearful and fled wildly. This is the fundamental reason why we can only use humans to search.”
As Tana said that, he continued to play the next video image, which made the captains breathe a sigh of relief.
“Finally, I emphasize one thing. It’s best to catch the mutated creature alive. If you can’t catch it alive, you’d rather kill it than let it go, because…”
After a pause, Tana said meaningfully,
“What we can’t get, we can’t let others have it. I repeat, we have competitors.”
“I think the biggest risk you have to face is not mutated creatures, because no matter how they mutate, their habits will not change. Even more, they will be at an overall disadvantage under our high-tech equipment. Only those sent by other companies are the real source of your danger.”
“The detailed information you need, such as the first landing point of the meteorite fragments inferred by the computer, I will share them to the chat software’s group.”
At this time, a captain suddenly raised his hand and said,
“Since there is an approximate location of the meteorite fragments, why not just use a helicopter to get them directly?”
Tana sneered,
“Actually, the company had done this long ago, but unfortunately only soil was found. 2 helicopters were even lost when landing… Only then did we know, because mutated creatures also attach importance to the meteorite fragments. They will take this thing with them, and there will even be an internal fight within themselves!”
Having said that, Tana looked around and found that the rest of the people had no questions, then he said,
“Dismiss, good night.”
When Tana said the last word “good night”, Fang Linyan’s eyes also quickly popped up a prompt:
Main Mission: Onboarding completed
Explanation: You successfully joined the exploration team of the Duckland Company and obtained the basic evaluation of C.
Explanation: You have officially become one of the team captains, which makes your main mission evaluation increase by 1 level. You get the final evaluation of B.
Mission Reward: 3000 common points.
***
Main Mission: Capture (Triggered)
Mission Introduction: Made some achievements in the exploration team of the Duckland Company.
Mission Hint: The meteorite fragments have begun to attract the attention of the country at this time, so the difficulties you face are not only the difficult environment and pressure from competitors, but also time!
Mission Hint: At most 24 hours, the state agency will fully intervene in this matter. Any collection of relevant fragments and mutated creatures will be deemed illegal. The military will involve in this. So, there is not much time left for you to complete the mission.
Obviously, the content of the second coming main mission is quite clear.
The bottom line was to submit at least 1 mutant sample, which should be Evaluation C.
If he wanted to get a high evaluation, he should get at least 1 meteorite fragment!
In this regard, Fang Linyan deemed it to be difficult, but not necessarily impossible… only if he could cooperate with another contractor, but this seemed rather difficult.
Just as Fang Linyan pondered, there were noises from the camp in the distance. Obviously, the team captains had passed on what Tana had said before.
Fang Linyan was stunned for a while, then he returned to the camp transformed from containers and told the other 3 people the information he had learned. After that, he downloaded the information shared in the chat software and read it carefully.
These data include the geographical environment nearby and the mutated organisms that had been discovered before.
After reading this information, Fang Linyan said,
“I had been sleeping on the plane today, so I’m quite energetic. Plus, the geographical environment around here is not bad and there are no plants that obstruct vision view at all, so I plan to go to look for the mutated creatures in the marked area now.”
After hearing Fang Linyan’s words, Thomason immediately shook his head and objected,
“Hoy! Are you crazy, Wynch? Looking for those mutated monsters in such darkness? What can you do if you find them?! Will it stay there for you to catch?”
Fang Linyan said coldly,
“I didn’t ask your opinion, Thomason. I just informed you that this is happening.”
After speaking, he turned to look at the others,
“Anyone willing to go with me?”
Lauder apparently agreed with Thomason, and they simply lay down on the bed.
The big man Bowell hesitated for a moment and said,
“I’ll go with you.”
Fang Linyan squinted slightly, but he nodded calmly on the surface,
“Okay, I’ll give you 10 minutes to pack up.”
Then Fang Linyan walked out the door, but he could hear Thomason mocking Burwell,
“Big man, are you stupid? Do you know what’s going on outside? Do you know the taboo for survival in the wild? It is to walk in the dark at night! Once you break your leg, you will have nothing left.”
The big man Bowell smiled honestly, but he didn’t say much. He packed up his things and followed Fang Linyan to the gate of the camp.
It turned out that there were about 7 people who had the same idea, but they were all stopped by Eisen, who was on duty at the gate.
Fang Linyan looked around, and he immediately knew that most of the people who had to leave the camp in a hurry were contractors/contestants with a mission time limit. The 24-hour limit was obviously like a touchstone that revealed all the contractors with the mission.
At this time, Tana didn’t seem to be there. He went to a place with good signal to contact his boss. Even if Eisen was the person in charge of the camp, this guy was afraid to take responsibility. No matter what the people in front of him said, he kept shaking his head and refused to let them go.
As a result, a man who seemed to be very low-key suddenly stood up and just slapped him in the face.
The man didn’t hold back his power. Eisen’s face was quickly swollen after 3 slaps. He could only make a crying sound from his mouth. When he wanted to speak, the blood and teeth gushed out from his mouth.
This man was a black man with a round face. Others call him Codan. He seemed to be smiling at the usual time and was easygoing. No one expected him to do it without hesitation.
Immediately after that, Codan kicked Eisen away and took the lead out of the camp. Fang Linyan could see that there were 3 people around Codan. They seemed to be in a team. With a few thoughts, he understood the reason.
“This is reverse thinking…”
“It seems that at the beginning of the world, 1 of the 2 main missions given is obviously suitable for solo contestant/contractor, and the other mission was tailor-made for the team. However, Codan and his team knew that their strength was far from the rest of the team, so they simply disband the team to pick this mission!”
“This idea is quite smart. Better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. Instead of being obliterated by everyone on the team mission and suffering more pressure, it is better to come here to crush the solo contestant/contractor with team combat power so as to fight for more resources!”
Thinking of this, Fang Linyan showed a sneer. There is a saying that the ideal is very wonderful and the reality is very cruel. Codan and his team members really have a wishful thought. Unfortunately, even I won’t let their plan work, let alone the rest?
As expected, as soon as they left the camp gate, Codan and the other 3 immediately said,
“Adventures outside are inseparable from teamwork. Only by joining the team can you get a higher evaluation. You should know the reason. So, interested friends can come and chat, and we will act together later. What about that? “
Faced with the solicitation of these few people, Fang Linyan expressed no interest.
But if he refused directly, they would become angry.
Of course, so what if they were angry?
Fang Linyan didn’t think he couldn’t beat them, but he didn’t need to waste his energy now. Therefore, he had a wicked idea — He just brought Burwell away like he didn’t hear them.
His departure immediately made Codan a little unhappy. He stood in front of Fang Linyan and said,
“Hey, brother, are you listening to me?”
TL: Burwell should be a contestant too, can they form a team in the future?
