How Am I Still Alive?

"According to the mercenary practices of this world, third parties should not interfere until we are completely wiped out or give up the mission."

The mercenary from the Changshou Clan in front of him named Li Yong saw someone passing by and took the initiative to come to say hello.

"We are a professional mercenary team from the neighboring Kaiwei City. This time we are the main force drawn from six large mercenary groups to investigate the incident here."

When Lu Ping'an took out the holy emblem and certificate of the church's top leaders, he also gained some respect. At least the mercenary who originally said "You are robbing business" had a better attitude.

As the time passed by the "big event", more and more contact methods were reactivated. Naturally, the closer the city, the more frequent the contact.

If something goes wrong in this city, the neighboring city will naturally attach great importance to not only business dealings but also the relationship between residents and neighbors. More importantly, it is a common practice in this world that if something happens to one family, the neighbor next door will also suffer the same disaster in a short time.

Whether it is a natural disaster, an invasion from outside, the spread of a virus, or even just a certain professional going crazy, it will basically not only harm a family or a city. Prediction and warning dissemination are the most important ways to survive.

Lincheng originally heard that there were "murder cases" here, and they were treated as cases of sacrifice to evil gods/foreign gods (which happened in large numbers).

According to past experience, if it is not dealt with in time, a bunch of dimensional gates will appear soon, and then a dozen foreign invaders will appear. Naturally, the neighboring Kaiwei City took active action and sent combat forces in advance.

Whether it is prevention or fire extinguishing, or blocking the door and fighting after failure, the more combat power, the better.

Kaiwei City not only recruited scattered local combat forces, but also hired many well-known mercenary groups from other cities with large sums of money, and even "dragons" who were seeking a living nearby.

But when they gathered, the fog had already spread, and the entire city completely lost contact.

Facing the fog here, they were a little surprised, but they did not hesitate. The first batch of "lead sisters" had not returned yet, and the second batch of people had already set off.

Now that some of the reconnaissance posts and high-level combat forces have entered, they will naturally take precautions when they see an "outsider" like Lu Ping'an coming.

".What is the approximate strength of the team you are leading?"

"'Purple Cage Hand', 'Golden Moon'."

The mercenary named a bunch of "big names" in the industry, but Lu Ping'an looked confused. Who are all of them?

"Is there a rule level?" Lu Ping'an asked directly.

"Well, Your Excellency Golden Moon is the pinnacle of laws and regulations."

"That's okay."

What Lu Pingan wanted to know was whether there were combat forces above the regular level involved, but what he really wanted to know was whether they knew that this matter was related to the fragment!

Now it seems that the answer is obviously no. If there are no professionals above the rule level involved in this kind of thing, it is basically impossible to know the inside story. On the other hand, if you don't even have a rule level combat power when facing fragments, you are basically unaware. Looking for the dead.

Lu Ping An was looked at by this mercenary, and there were several pairs of vigilant eyes around him. Obviously, they were worried about Lu Ping An, a job-stealer. After all, the data on Lu Ping An's ID was that he was a fifth-level gardener. In most cases, he could neither As an effective combat force, we also have to worry about the troubles caused by being a "high-level church".

".You don't think there is any treasure in this, do you?"

This vigilance exceeded expectations and made Lu Pingping think more before asking.

Lu Ping'an asked seemingly unintentionally, but did not receive an immediate response.

"Ahaha, how could it be? We are here to perform a rescue mission."

Lu thought for a moment and suddenly realized.

I am afraid that these mercenaries have discovered that something is wrong here, but now instead of reporting to the city, they are more active. They suspect that all the citizens here are probably dead, the disaster has become a reality, and the plane portal may have Already opened.

However, for mercenaries, this kind of bad development may be what they are most looking forward to seeing. The biggest treasure does not need to be provided by another world.

".I can pretend I didn't see anything."

"Haha, I don't understand what you are talking about."

The "treasure" suggested by Lu Ping'an is actually the "heritage" of this city.

A city with hundreds of thousands of people living in it naturally has a lot of wealth and resources. The mercenaries who come to the rescue can easily get a little bit, which is probably higher than their actual commission.

If the city is really in disaster, these people will really rescue them. Of course, taking away all the belongings they can take away will make them very motivated.

Lu Ping'an sighed helplessly. These are "mercenaries", but they are also the main force in this world.

These hounds who pursue war naturally always focus on their own profits.

"Road group."

But at this time, someone pulled Lu Pingping.

Lu Pingan turned around and heard Meiyuge whisper in his ear.

"Golden Moon is Senior Sister Hua's title. She is indeed working as a mercenary. Senior Sister Lu also said that she is coming to join us all the way. It's normal to do some tasks on the way."

It's a good thing to have an acquaintance around. Maybe everything will be easier to talk about now that she's back. At least Lu Ping'an can get first-hand information.

Lu Pingan did not embarrass the young mercenary in front of him and found a place to camp temporarily.

I'm afraid that after many people entered, they had already looted and rescued at the same time. If an outsider like me saw it and spread the news, the reputation of some mercenaries would probably be ruined.

Even if Lu Ping'an said that he couldn't say anything, they wouldn't believe it.

Perhaps in their eyes, Lu has become an uninvited guest blocking their path to wealth.

"No, are you serious?!"

He gently avoided the surprise attack of a young mercenary, and then pressed him into the soil. There were already things lying around.

This mercenary team suddenly became "unpleasant to see Lu Ping'an" and (took the initiative) to find Lu Ping'an for a sparring session. As a result, this fifteen-person team led by Lu Ping'an lasted for about forty seconds in total.

The original threats and temptations became a joke, and Lu Pingan received more vigilant eyes.

But Lu knew that if he tried to go in again, I'm afraid he wouldn't be intercepted. Mercenaries are just that realistic. Being strong enough means they can do whatever they want.

But Lu wanted to let these mercenaries wade through the water as cannon fodder. He didn't want to completely offend people before they even started, and he also wanted to get more information before making a decision.

It is worth mentioning that the "fragment" once again exerted its function, and Lu Ping'an's "Eye of Reality" also blinded him again. He could feel that the energy of the fragment was right in front of him, but he could not capture the source.

He waited patiently for Hua Xueyi's return, and speculated on her changes with interest.

But she didn't come back from noon to night
