After becoming top guides, they are obsessed with

Chapter 683 They're too arrogant!

The fog was thick in the contaminated area in the early morning, even in the logistics area which had defensive shields.

The streets of the mercenary logistics area were bustling, not much different from those at night.

This group of mercenaries, who had virtually no guides to help them manage their mental energy, were more agitated than usual, making it difficult for them to fall asleep.

Mercenaries traded goods or found companions to go out and clean up the pollution in various parts of the streets.

Because mercenaries are not as disciplined as those in the Federation, the mercenary logistics area will open its defenses twice a day, allowing entry but not exit at other times.

The teleportation point is only open at fixed times; it cannot be used at other times, and you will have to run back yourself.

Knicks and Amuk didn't return to the logistics area until almost dawn. They were teleported out just as the exits were opening at night. While protecting Casey as they ran back, they encountered a large wave of contaminants and had to hide somewhere temporarily, which delayed them considerably.

They returned without taking a break, first beating the sentries they had driven away half to death, then having the rest of the team search the entire area for the escaped Walter.

Casey had been searching for Walter before this, but a night passed and they still couldn't find the cunning cheetah.

They all suspected that he might have run outside the safe zone.

Since they couldn't find the person, they had to put the matter aside for the time being, as they had other more important things to do.

According to the plan, they are going to clean the next area today.

The pollution concentration in the North Second District is rising faster than they predicted before they came in, and the growth rate of the alien species is also beyond their expectations.

They need to advance into the contaminated area even faster than planned.

The teleportation point opens during the busiest time in the logistics area, so the Knicks quickly got ready and headed towards the teleportation point.

On their way, several silver-white figures emerged from the fog and came into view of the Knicks.

"Boss, they're from the Sea Clan." Amu looked at the Sea Clan members with hostility.

The Knicks stopped in their tracks.

The sea creatures wore combat uniforms similar to those of the little princess. They had cold expressions and their gazes swept over the passing sentries as if they were searching for something.

Knicks gestured to Amuk to be quiet, then continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.

At that moment, a long fork blocked Knicks' path, stopping him in his tracks.

"What do you want to do?" Amu immediately bristled.

Nix placed his hand on Amu's chest and pushed him away. He raised his chin at the sea creature blocking his way and said in a roguish tone, "This is not your sea creature territory. Watch out, fish."

After he finished speaking, the other mercenaries around them all looked over, their eyes filled with disgust and aggression as they looked at the sea creatures.

They were fine with seeing the sea people loitering in their territory early in the morning, but if they wanted to cause trouble, they wouldn't be so polite.

Mercenaries are generally treated worse than active-duty sentries, and their status is highly territorial.

But clearly, these sea creatures were not afraid of them.

“Sea creatures are not welcome here,” Nix said. “I advise you to leave as soon as possible and return to your own territory. We don’t have guides to calm us down, and if we get agitated, no one can stop us.”

The sea creature in front of him ignored him, glanced at him and Amu, put away his weapon, and said to the other sea creatures, "Let's go. There was only a slight contact aura; we shouldn't have any interaction with His Highness."

Another sea creature spoke up: "Are we just going to let him go like that?"

"He's heading outside the safe zone. His Highness is still here; we can't let them know we're looking for him."

"."

After the sea people left, Amu smacked his lips on the ground, "If we didn't have important business to attend to, we would have fought them. We need to let them know that our territory isn't a place they can come and go as they please."

The other team members echoed this sentiment.

Knicks slapped him on the head. "I told you, try not to stir up people's emotions in the contaminated area. If the mutation exceeds the critical value, it will go berserk, and then no amount of inhibitors will be able to suppress it. Is this what you want?" Amu crossed his arms and said dejectedly, "They're too arrogant."

Knicks: "Young man, you think this is arrogant? You've never seen a truly arrogant person."

"You son of a bitch, do you know who you're pointing at?"

No sooner had the Knicks finished speaking than a grumbling voice rang out from behind.

"Get away from me, you smell like fish and it's bothering me."

"You dare waste my time? Believe me or not, I'll kill you bunch of stinking fish!"

"Boss, boss, calm down, calm down."

The team members quickly pulled back the captain who was about to attack.

Knicks looked at the dark figure in the fog and said, "It's that kid, Orgrimmar."

"Make way." Another voice rang out, accompanied by heavy footsteps, and the massive figure of the mecha appeared in the fog.

Nix heard the sound of the mech's weapons being loaded.

Amu: "Tsk, why was Huo Lin stopped too? These scoundrels know how to pick their targets."

He had a look of anticipation on his face. "Boss, do you think they'll start fighting?"

Knicks said, "It's hard to say."

Both of them are tough guys. He had witnessed Huo Lin's temper back in school. He seemed calm, but in reality, he couldn't tolerate anything and would never let himself suffer a loss.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have retired from the army, losing his prestigious seven-star individual soldier rank.

"Let's go," Knicks said to Amu, ignoring them.

As the team approached the outer perimeter, the Knicks handed the team over to Amuk and headed towards Flock's territory.

Halfway there, Amu caught up with him.

"I... I'm worried about her too." Amu scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and said, "Boss, I'll just take a look and then go back."

Knicks didn't say anything; he just wanted to remind the little princess that they could catch up with the group before the teleportation point closed.

"The sea people have arrived."

Maki squatted down and took a bottle of wine from the locker.

She had been busy all night and was still full of energy. She flicked the bottle cap off with her finger, leaned against the cabinet, and took a big gulp of wine. She turned her head to look at Flock, who was making pancakes in the open kitchen of the living room, and Yu Xia, who was waiting for food by the side.

Flock flipped the pancake over, took the egg Yu Xia handed him, and tapped it against the edge of the pan.

The egg mixture sizzled as it fell into the oiled frying pan, and the aroma made Yu Xia's mouth water.

"Don't overcook it." Yu Xia put her hands on Flock's shoulders, eager to eat.

Floch pushed her forehead with the back of his hand. "Get away, or the oil will splatter."

He flipped the egg over, fried it for another ten seconds or so, and then took it out of the pan along with the pancake.

Yu Xia reached for it, but he slapped her hand away, saying, "It's too hot, let it cool down first."

As he spoke, he continued frying the next pancake.

"How long will this last?" Yu Xia asked, looking at the black ore at the bottom of the pot that shone with an orange-red light.

Like the other places in the Federation, Flock's residence did not have electricity; instead, it used a heat-generating energy mineral.

Strangely, this ore can only be powered by gold energy.
