Chapter 322 Part 2: Collecting Intel

(From MC's POV)

When it comes to 20 hunting teams, apart from those 10 teams I believe there are also a few other unknown teams in this area. which may be suitable for me to join those teams.

And also, I came here to hone my skills, not for a mission. So, as my Uncle said, I need to mind my own business.

Then looking at Remington, I asked, "I don't think there are only 10 teams in this mission. What about others? "

A quick glint flashes before Remington's eyes. From these few conversations, he understands that the young man in front of him is not dumb.

So he decided to answer truthfully, "Well, obviously there are others. But the strength of other teams was low. And their leader's strength may range from peak special trainee to initial trainee warrior. "

A small smile rose on my face. This is what I wanted. As I guessed earlier, there were other teams who took the same mission.

Seeing changes in Zack's expression, Reminginton asked, "Young man, do you want to join any team?"

Hearing that, I nodded. One thing I noticed so far is that the previous Star Tower's competition spotlight has faded away. And people didn't remember me that much.

But if I join any strong team, there might be some unnecessary trouble. Various thoughts run in my mind.

On the other hand, Remington Tally wasn't surprised by Zack's answer. If not for the mission, he doubted there would be any valid reason.

The problem is that he couldn't see through this young man's strength. So he couldn't think of any suitable teams.

Besides, it's not easy to join those top teams just like that. He knows that behind those top teams, there is usually someone behind the top support.

They include their own men in their mission team. As a result, he doubted that there were many openings for newcomers.

Remington didn't think about other teams. There is nothing to gain by joining weak teams. Even if they do earn something, later they will be bullied by strong teams.

Some are even forced to transfer their credit points. So there is also one thing for warriors to join top teams; it's about their safety.

Top team members can keep their money. No one would bully them. There is no theft or killing faced by strong teams. So there are numerous advantages for warriors if they join a strong team.

Seeing Remington's silence, I thought something was wrong. So I asked, "What happened?"

Hearing that, Remington Talley set his gaze at Zack and replied, "Young man, I don't know your thoughts. But it's not easy to join top teams. "

Then he continues to say, "To join the top teams, you need to pass their test. In particular, you need to get the approval of the backer behind their team. "

I was taken back by his answer. I immediately replied by saying, "I'm not thinking about joining any strong team at all."

Remington Talley was dumbfounded by his words. Usually, warriors die to join a strong team. But this young man, Remington, couldn't understand him at all.

Seeing the stupefied expression of Remington, I said with a smile, "I won't stay here for long. I came here to gain some fighting experience. So it's not good to join a strong team where their goal is to complete the mission. ''

Remington is enlightened by Zack's words. "As expected, a young man from an influential background." He muttered in his heart.

He heard heirs of influential backgrounds go to the outside world to gain experience. So this is the first time in his life that he has met such a person.

So there were some changes in his attitude. He coughed twice to break the silence.

"Cough" "Cough"

"Young man, if you just came here to gain fighting experience, Then I can recommend a team, "Remington said in a calm tone.

His words piqued my interest. Actually, I'm quite waiting for this. I know how come these trade people don't have any contact with warriors.

So I asked with some surprise, "Oh, can you tell me about the team?"

Remington smiled and said, "Iron Hammer Team."

Then he continued to say, "Actually, the leader of the team is Mervin Waller, a water element-peak special trainee warrior. He is also one of our trade center's protector"

A surprise glint flashes in my eyes. Well, this is a very close connection to their trade centre. Usually, these protectors were employed to safeguard their goods and staff from bandits.

It's really surprising to see such warriors take up the mission.

I commented, "He is really daring." I neither said it in a humble nor an arrogant tone. I said with appreciation.

These people usually keep to themselves. They don't do anything that would jeopardise their careers. But this Mervin guy was actually on such a perilous mission.

Remington reveals a bitter smile by hearing that he replied, "Young warrior, Mervin Waller, lost some of his good friends due to these bandits. Some of them were killed while he was acting as the protector"

I sighed internally, then nodded in understanding. Speaking of his team, if this guy really is a peak special trainee, then none of them can force me.

I can do my business. There is no pressure whatsoever. After thinking

about it, I realised this is a suitable team for me to join. In particular, the background of the person is also not scary.

Especially when comparing this team to a strong team with backers. This team is very suitable for me.

I asked, "This team is good. Can you tell me everything about the team?" including their competitors and supporters. "

A hint of appreciation flashes in Remington's eyes. He realised this conversation felt more like some kind of business deal than a natural conversation.

Shaking his head, he answered, "Well, it's natural to have competitors. However, in this forest, the most important thing is to avoid these venomous bugs rather than bandits"

Then he added further, "Even if you somehow survived from these bandits. Later, you will be robbed by other hunting teams. "

My face condensed a little bit by hearing this. This is the nature of the human heart. By robbing the same teams, they will earn some extra money.

Well, every team has their own advantages and disadvantages. So I'm slightly aware of the dangers. Besides, I'm not planning to bond with the team.

If there is an opportunity, I will look for those bandits alone.

I sighed internally, I looked towards Reminginton and answered, "Well, I'm ready to join this team, but I'm going to leave after a month."

Earlier, I thought about staying here for one or two months. But after knowing that it's even hard to survive here, I changed my mind.

It's better not to get involved too much in this mission.

After hearing Zack's confirmation, Remington smiled. because he also has some interest in this help. He wants to have business contact with Zack.

"There is a good opportunity for growth. I can get some kind of business deal, I can get a promotion for sure," Remington said in his heart.

Then he looked at Zack and said, "Young man, since you had decided. Let's not waste time here. You can return to the city. I'll arrange a meeting with the team tomorrow. "

And taking a look at the surroundings for the moment, he added further, "This place is not suitable for meetings. If some people knew, then it would cause some trouble."

I nodded, then we talked about a few other things before I left his tent.

At first, I came here to look for a good team to join. Now that I have joined. I decided to go back to the city.

Seeing the disappearing back of Zack, Remington said in his heart, "I made a decision on behalf of Mervin. That guy has a lot of temper. I don't know whether he is going to agree with this."

Later, he decided to have a conversation with Mervin before the meeting. Because right now, Mervin is doing the mission inside the forest.

It will take some time for him to return. Once Mervin comes back with his team, Remington decides to convince him somehow.

On the other hand,

I returned to the same hotel an hour later. Fortunately, there was no accident while coming back.

After coming back to the room, I took a shower. I'm glad that the first hurdle is solved. And I'm looking forward to the meeting tomorrow.

Time Progresses,

Late evening,

Three burley middle-aged men walked out of the insect forest. Damn, these pigs. I couldn't wait to hack them to death, "one of the warriors gnashed his teeth in hatred."

Hearing that, the other two kept silent. These three people were none other than members of the Iron Hammer team.

After walking out of the forest, both of them walked towards their camp area.

Soon all of them came to Remington's tent. All of their faces looked a little bit solemn.

Remington, who was behind the counter, noticed three of them. Seeing their haggard expression, he feels something is wrong. Suddenly, he thought of something. "Why did three of them only come back?" What about the other two?"
