Chapter 70: Cooperation Between the Contacts.
After a hurried journey, on the eighth day, they finally saw the edge of the forest.
"We're about to leave, that's great!"
At this moment, every member of the team was extremely excited.
That's double!
"At that time, I may have to leave the team for a while."
Suddenly, a middle-aged man in the group spoke up in a somewhat weary tone.
"Go out and find women, but be careful you don't end up in a woman's belly."
Another man spoke up, joking.
"What do you mean 'finding a woman'? I'm seeking fate!"
The man who had just spoken glared fiercely at the other person.
"Alright, we're almost there, everyone be careful."
Chu Huaizhou couldn't help but smile as he listened to the team's pleasant conversation.
However, he still reminded everyone, "Don't let your guard down until the mission is completed."
"It's just ahead."
Yu Xiaolie suddenly spoke, pointing in a direction in the distance.
Following his finger, everyone looked and found it was a tavern.
This is where they arranged the rendezvous.
Soon, the group entered the tavern.
The tavern was sparsely populated.
Yu Xiaolie glanced around the crowd.
"Over there."
They had a portrait of the contact person in their hands.
In addition, the contact person's obvious physical characteristics allowed the group to find him quickly.
In the corner sat a middle-aged man.
His face was unshaven, and his hair was rather long, giving him an unkempt appearance.
Of particular note is the long, menacing scar on his right cheek.
The line extends from the person's eyebrows all the way down to the back of their neck.
In front of the man was a full glass of wine and a large plate of meat.
Beside him was a golden cane.
Clearly, this person has a leg disability.
According to the information obtained by Yu Xiaolie and his team, this person's right leg is lame, and the above information matches.
"Maurice?"
Chu Huaizhou led the group to the man and asked a question.
"You're the Red Guard Hunting Squad?"
The man raised his head and scanned the crowd.
"That's right."
Chu Huaizhou nodded slightly.
Where is the stuff?
Morris reached out his hand.
Chu Huaizhou stepped back, making way for Yu Xiaolie.
Upon seeing Chu Huaizhou's action, Morris's eyes flickered, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
Yu Xiaolie quickly placed the box on the table.
Morris reached out to take the box, but Yu Xiaolie held it firmly in his hand.
Upon feeling the power emanating from Yu Xiaolie's hand, Morris was initially taken aback, but then burst into laughter.
"You're really vigilant, kid."
As Maurice spoke, he took out three boxes.
"Here is your final payment, 15,000 gold soul coins. Take it."
"very good."
Yu Xiaolie then released his hand.
Seeing that the transaction was complete, Chu Huaizhou stepped forward and put the money away.
"withdraw."
He then instructed everyone to prepare to leave.
"You're Yu Xiaolie, the vice-captain of the Red Guard squad?"
Just as everyone was about to leave, Morris suddenly spoke up, his gaze falling on Yu Xiaolie.
"Could we speak in private?"
"Please feel free to speak."
Yu Xiaolie remained indifferent, showing no intention of moving his body.
"Cough cough."
Seeing Yu Xiaolie's reaction, Morris wasn't annoyed. He simply took a sip of his drink, sighed, and began to speak as if telling a story.
"To be honest, I used to be the captain of a hunting team. Because I completed the missions well and was very capable, many wealthy clients came to me."
"However, because I have a large share of the team's revenue, the team members have a lot of complaints about me."
"Until one day, I completely broke ties with the other members of the team, and the vice-captain took the opportunity to rally other soul masters to launch a siege against me!"
"Those sons of bitches!"
At this point, Maurice suddenly became angry, paused for a while, and then gulped down a large mouthful of wine.
"They brutally crippled me! They stripped me of my soul! If I hadn't been rescued in time, I would have surely died!"
"Although I survived by sheer luck, I became a cripple."
"Speaking of which, you must have heard of this hunting team!"
Morris's tone became somewhat resentful.
"Dragon Slayer Hunting Team!"
"What!?"
The moment Chu Huaizhou heard this name, he couldn't sit still.
this...
This is currently the top-ranked squad! The number one hunting team! They even dare to boast that, with enough money, they can slay a dragon!
Chu Huaizhou's eyes were filled with shock.
Their captain, Bruce, is a control-type Soul King.
Originally, the Soul King level wasn't high, but when he paired it with a 30,000-year-old right leg soul bone, it became extremely extraordinary!
At this point, Chu Huaizhou's eyes showed some surprise and uncertainty.
If what this man in front of me is true...
Could it be...
How did Bruce's soul bone come about?
"so what?"
Yu Xiaolie's expression, however, seemed rather indifferent.
"You want us to avenge you?"
Although Yu Xiaolie travels around, he is ultimately a person with very high standards.
He has encountered quite a few Contra-level powerhouses.
Therefore, I am actually indifferent to powerhouses at the Soul King level.
No, no, no.
Morris shook his head. "Revenge is just the lowest form of revenge. To kill someone, you must also destroy their spirit!"
Morris poked his chest as he spoke, "I've spent so many years in the far north and have gotten to know quite a few powerful Soul Masters."
"So... I'm going to rebuild my team! To rise again!"
Clearly, Morris meant that he had his eye on Yu Xiaolie's high-level martial soul and intended to recruit him into his group.
However, Yu Xiaolie did not reply.
The other party wants you to abandon your teammates.
Admittedly, joining the ranks of the strong will certainly make things safer and smoother in the future.
However, it is more meaningful to fight your way out in a normal start.
It also helps to forge a stronger person.
Otherwise, he could have simply followed the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family's arrangements and gone to Thunder Academy, or stayed at Tianshui Academy as a teacher.
Wouldn't that be more secure?
Since we've chosen a dangerous path to becoming stronger, we must see it through to the end!
"So, what you mean is?"
Chu Huaizhou, standing to the side, frowned.
He probably understood what Maurice meant.
"Cough cough."
Morris glanced at Yu Xiaolie.
He did want to win Yu Xiaolie over, but unfortunately, Yu Xiaolie didn't seem to have that idea.
Then he'll have no choice but to change his mind.
What I mean is, I hope to cooperate with you!
Morris spoke earnestly, "I've spent so many years in the far north, and I've met quite a few big spenders!"
"I can handle external affairs for your team and help you take on missions."
"You can also invite some strong individuals to join your team! This will help you build a powerful force!"
"Then we'll grow bigger and stronger!"
"What a great idea to grow bigger and stronger!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Huaizhou immediately became interested.
In their line of work, the amount of money they can earn depends on how many clients assign them tasks.
The man in front of them could introduce them to wealthy clients, so at least their future tasks and income were guaranteed.
"How about it?"
Morris looked at Yu Xiaolie standing to the side.
He had already figured it out: although Chu Huaizhou was the captain of this team, and he was indeed playing an important role.
However, Yu Xiaolie has a voice that is no less powerful than Chu Huaizhou's.
Sometimes, Yu Xiaolie's words are even more effective.
"no problem."
Yu Xiaolie looked at the others, and none of them seemed to want to refuse.
I simply agreed.
What Morris thought before is irrelevant.
What matters is his current thoughts.
