Link used a lazy trick.
He didn’t directly assign tasks to the Social Phobia Trio, for fear of causing resentment.
Instead, he restructured the team’s framework, dividing the whole team into four parts.
Not counting himself for now,
Elise was free to do whatever she wanted, as long as it didn’t affect the normal operation of the team;
Buck and Ezio made up one group, responsible for clearing the way in peacetime, and dealing with ambushes in wartime;
Linn and Dalton made up the second group, responsible for reconnaissance and alert in peacetime, reporting military situation, communication and fire support in wartime;
Digee Finley and the Social Phobia Trio made up the third group, responsible for doing odd jobs in peacetime, doing whatever work there was, taking samples, manufacturing specimens, advancing tasks in peacetime, and following the main force in combat in wartime.
The reason why it was called a lazy trick was because of the use of Digee.
You’re familiar with the Social Phobia Trio, right?
Why not let you lead them?
Although this move was lazy, it worked marvelously.
Not only did Digee Finley feel highly regarded by the boss, but the Social Phobia Trio also breathed a sigh of relief, their hanging hearts finally at ease.
The greater the team, the clearer the division of labor, the slower the progress.
The journey estimated to be three hours was now expected to extend to four and a half.
After travelling for a while, Link called the team to stop and rest.
Drinking water, eating dry food, resting their feet, and relieving mental fatigue.
“Pm going to leave.”
Elise, after drinking the purified water that Link had handed her, unexpectedly declared her decision.
Ever since the team expanded, Elise’s words had become less and less, and her interest was seemingly waning.
She was originally only interested in Link the person, and some interesting events that might happen, so she approached Link and requested to join the team.
But now that there were more people, it was boring;
And there was nothing interesting happening, which made it even more boring.
As her mood welled up, Elise grew weary and didn’t want to continue.
Without waiting for Link’s response after she announced her decision, she retreated her lying chair, her boots collided with each other, and she whizzed up into the sky.
The crazy girl came in front of Link like the wind, and left just as quickly.
“wooh! Hoo~”
Somehow, as she flew in mid-air and saw Lanny Taylor and her party in the distance, Elise’s interest was piqued again.
She let out a strange cry, then took out two packs of modified Self-Destructing Fire Thunders from her little bag, and threw them down.
“Hello Green Pond!”
Elise circled a few times above Lanny’s head, looking at the busy people who were dealing with the attack. In particular, Lanny Taylor, who was covered in grass roots and dust. She excitedly and cheerfully shouted, “Goodbye, Green Pond!”
After shouting, Elise didn’t give them the chance to retaliate. She let out a series of maniacal laughter and flew away at high speed.
Link saw this scene through the real-time surveillance of the Flying Sphere.
Indeed, there are only wrong names, but no wrong nicknames.
Crazy girl, mad woman.
Fits Elise Clark perfectly.
“Boss?”
At this moment, Linn, who was the most thoughtful, looked at Link and asked, waiting for instructions.
Putting himself in their shoes, if he was attacked for no reason, he would definitely come forward for an explanation.
If he didn’t get the answer or explanation he wanted, he might even resort to violence.
So, he was thinking they should be prepared in advance to avoid panic when the time comes.
“It’s okay, we continue to rest.”
Link indicated to Linn to stay calm, not to get overly excited.
The reason for this wasn’t because Link was arrogant enough to believe they had the advantage due to more members or reconnaissance expertise, hence letting his guard down.
It was simply unnecessary.
Just like Lanny Taylor understands Link, Link also understands Lanny Taylor.
Given Lanny’s temperament in dealing with this matter, it would only come to a verbal spat at most.
If she wanted a serious fight, Lanny would be the first to object.
Therefore,
There won’t be any fight.
As Linn Hewitt predicted, having experienced a surprise attack from the Self- Destructing Fire Thunder, Lanny’s party of four quickly sped up.
Before long, the four people, their faces covered in dust, caught up with Team Link who had just finished their rest and were preparing to continue on their journey.
“What’s the meaning of this?”
Isko, filled with rage, rushed up to challenge Link.
Link looked coldly at Isko, the image of Hannibal appearing in his mind again.
The aura of a cold-blooded butcher and a carnivorous artist combined with Link’s increasingly intimidating killing intent scared Isko.
After forcing eye contact for a few seconds, Isko awkwardly moved his gaze away.
His head slowly lowered.
“Heh…”
Link chuckled, his intentions unclear, and then he withdrew his murderous intent, dispelled the image of Hannibal, turned to Lanny Taylor, and asked, “You have him as a partner?”
His tone was flat, without a hint of disrespect.
Yet, this made Isko feel even worse than being disrespected.
If you’re already being ignored, why bother being disrespectful?
Lanny, however, didn’t fear Link’s sudden sharpness and cold-bloodedness and calmly replied: “My partners are excellent. I am very satisfied with every aspect.”
She looked around, not seeing Elise, and combined with the direction she had fled earlier, Lanny had a certain suspicion.
She said sarcastically, “Unlike you, you can’t even control the actions of your partners.”
Link had no intention of engaging in a verbal war.
Noetheless, this question still needed to be answered.
It wasn’t an explanation for Lanny’s group, but for his own team.
He said lightly, “During the team-up period, Elise follows my command. Now that the team-up has ended, any actions she takes are her own freedom. I have no right to interfere and no intention of interfering.”
