Quit the team, then picked up a beautiful girl with problems

When Crook looked at Andasu, Riddle immediately explained what had happened before and the solution he and Leon and his gang had agreed upon.

"Oh? Platinum Ace? Never heard of it? You think you can take out all these guys? It seems like our money was really not spent wisely."

As soon as Crook opened his mouth, he offended all the people on Leon's side present, including the rowers they had invited.

The contestants who were racing in airships were all people who loved to fly in the sky and were free-spirited. Some of them immediately changed their expressions.

Reard's face changed drastically, and he was about to say something to ease the situation, but Ger and Lindsen pulled their colleagues aside first. These two were outstanding people, so they had a lot of say, and they persuaded them not to lose their temper.

"But now that the situation has been resolved, I'm too lazy to bother with it anymore. Humph, you guys calmed it down with just a few words. It seems this Platinum Ace isn't very capable. Let's just do as you say."

Crook slammed the table and pointed at Andasu, saying, "However, I can hire you as the thirteenth rower, but you can only take half of their compensation. No, one-third. This is the price for ruining our plan."

Even though they were defeated by Andasu with provocation before, the rowers now shared a common hatred for the enemy and frowned at Crook together.

"It's okay if you don't agree, but I'm sure you can't afford the wrath of the group that day."

Andasu clenched his fists tightly, his body trembling slightly, obviously filled with anger.

"Okay, we agreed."

Leon took a step forward and said.

"Oh, it's you?"

Noticing the "extras" standing aside, Crook cast his gaze over.

Leon felt that the auras of Andasu, Huozui Zhongde and even Meluna had changed slightly. They all knew the connection between Leon and Soul Peak. Even Reed, an outsider, had briefly mentioned it before to prevent any flaws in the plan.

Li Ang wore a cloak to cover part of his face, but if he was really stared at, he would be recognized by acquaintances.

"I'm the one in charge of preparing Platinum Ace's racing boat."

Crook glanced at Leon twice without any reaction.

"You've got what you say, Zechariah. I'll do as you say."

After Crook finished speaking to "Reard", he pointed at Andasu and said, "Remember, this won't happen again." Then he turned and walked out.

"Great, everything went well."

Reard, whose real name was Zacharias, wiped the sweat off his face and said to Leon and his group with a smile, "I'll get started and help you find a room. For the sake of convenience, why don't you stay at the Wormos Shipyard for now?"

"Okay." A rower shouted immediately.

Lild pointed at them and said, "Don't make trouble. Be honest before the celebration is over. Don't make things difficult for me. I've been treating you well enough."

"I know."

"There are just four or five rooms left. This way we have plenty of space to live in and we can relax both physically and mentally." Reard smiled at Leon and the others.

"No need for so much. He and I can live in the same room." Andasu took a step forward and hugged Li Ang's arm.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Is it starting again? Leon had already covered his face in his heart, and of course he endured the glaring gaze.

Even though some people had previously speculated that his relationship with Andasu was not pure, this was basically confirmed, which still made several rowers look unhappy.

Although it seems that some people have aroused their competitive spirit, such as Gel.

Lild stopped them and said, "Go back to your respective training rooms first and prepare for the real game. Don't lose as badly as we did today."

In order to prevent any disputes, the young man immediately drove them away. These guys still recognized him. They stared at Leon and Andasu for a few seconds and then dispersed.

The young man went to greet some colleagues nearby. As soon as he left, Li Ang pinched Bai Lang's ears.

Andasu didn't think there was anything wrong at all. She held her head high and chest out, and wagged her tail.

"That main player just now didn't recognize you?" Huozui Dedu looked at Li Ang with a puzzled look. Li Ang replied in a low voice: "The person just now was the one I found after I left, so he didn't recognize me."

"Are you going to chop him up?" Meluna rarely spoke, and the first thing she said was killing.

"It's up to you after we rescue them."

Li Ang gently squeezed Andasu's hand again and said, "Don't get angry with that kind of people. Don't worry, we are going to do something that will ruin them forever."

White Wolf nodded, then shook his head slightly. "I'm not that angry. I've seen people like this before at King Platinum's place. I'm mainly angry for my master. Were you in the same air cavalry regiment with people like them before? I can't imagine it."

Reed interrupted, "Don't think I'm too self-righteous. As an outsider, I want to say that a group like this, even if they didn't cooperate with this evil empire this time, would have destroyed themselves sooner or later. This is my opinion after seeing so much."

Li Angwu'er initially thought of people like Farina and Xiao Mo. Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."

Meluna said, "You guys didn't make Li Ang worry either."

As soon as the black-haired girl spoke, Leon and Andasu quickly turned their heads to look at her.

While she was surprised that such words could come out of her mouth, Andasu was also a little indignant, but she and Meluna did not have any major conflicts. She just said: "I will do better and share the burden with the master."

Li Ang frowned, wondering where this salty fish had heard such words from. Who would reveal the true nature of the Star Flower Brigade to her? Could it be Meimei?

After Reard finished explaining things to his colleagues and subordinates, he came over and took Li Ang and his group into the factory to a stand-alone dormitory.

"You can stay here for the next few days. You don't need to go to other hotels. The Helm City is different from other places. The best houses here are the workers' dormitories and private houses. Hotels are not very suitable."

The young man pointed at the building and said, "The top floor is where I and the other members of the branch live. There's a lot of empty space in the middle. The rowers each have their own choice. You can all take your pick of the empty spaces."

Li Ang looked around and found that there were other buildings next to this house, but they were separated by barbed wire. This structure was not strange and was usually seen between men's and women's residences, but it seemed a bit unnatural at this moment.

The barbed wire seemed to have been pulled from somewhere else and needed support from other objects to remain stable. In addition to the barbed wire, there were other temporary barriers that separated this house from the other houses inside.

"Where is that place over there?"

"It's the workers' quarters. They said they were afraid outsiders like us would disturb others, so they separated the workers from us."

So that's why. Are they afraid that the team members and rowers will know that the workers are being coerced? Li Ang thought silently.

"Let's choose a room first."

For ease of movement, Leon chose a room on the first floor and also ordered Andasu not to share a room with him. Putting aside the possibility of Meluna going berserk, dogs were far more clingy than cats. He dared hold Zoe while she slept, but with Andasu clinging to him, he wouldn't dare.

I was originally here on a covert mission, don't make it into something else.

After settling in, it was time for "free activities" and Li Ang and his gang were about to start taking action.

326. The past is hard to forget

Li Ang and others walked out of the dormitory building and walked around it first.

His main purpose was to walk to the back and take a look at the situation in the workers' dormitory through the barbed wire.

When Xiao Mo and I came here before, we had to visit all twelve shipyards, so we could only get a general idea and didn't know many details. For example, how the workers at seven shipyards were coerced? Only by understanding this can we find a way to contact them.

When he just chose the room, he didn't see anyone in the dormitory building. This time he looked carefully, the result was the same.

"Where are they? Isn't it time for them to get off work?" Huo Zui Mou De asked curiously.

After a busy day, it's already time to get off work, but no one has returned yet.

Andasu asked, "Are they going to force these people to work late into the night?"

Since they couldn't see anyone, they went back to the front of the building. At this time, the rowers also came back one after another, and Reard and his colleagues brought lunch boxes.

"Did you go around to the back?" Reard asked calmly, with a slightly complicated expression.

"Just take a look at the living environment." Li Ang said.

"Oh, I just didn't see you guys the first time. Come, let's see what you want to eat."

This young man obviously knew about the working conditions of the workers here, but it was not clear how much he knew. According to Leon's analysis of the moral character of the Soul Peak main group, most of them might not have told him anything, but warned him not to talk too much or pry.

In this case, in Reard's opinion, perhaps the main group just placed an order and asked the other party to work overtime. Even if he really guessed that there was a problem, he would only choose to ignore it in his situation.

Li Ang chose a lighter dish, while Andasu chose one with a lot of spicy seasonings.

It must have been her preference that she chose it on her own initiative, but before, the White Wolf, who claimed to be a slave, had never expressed any of her preferences. Li Ang really didn't expect that she liked this.

Perhaps this is just like her true nature beneath her cold appearance?

There were all sorts of rowers who came to get their meals, not all of them were here, but the leaders, Gel and Lindson, were here.

"Where are the others? Are they still preparing?" Li Ang asked.

"Ah, them, haha."

Reard laughed awkwardly and explained that they could leave the factory to go to the city for a bite to eat, or stay out overnight with fans, and there would be no consequences as long as they returned on time.

Li Ang nodded. Perhaps this was why they listened to him.

"Anyway, don't worry about those workers. This is for your own good. Let's make money and then go wherever we want to have fun," Reard said in a low voice.

"Got it, thank you."

Leon looked at him, smiled, sighed, and snapped his fingers, which attracted the attention of Reard and the rowers around who noticed them coming out from behind the building.

He put his index and middle fingers together, and with a flick of his finger, his spiritual power acted on these people.

"You didn't see us coming out from behind the house, and you ignored our actions to keep an eye on the workers."

"Yes." Reard and the rower answered in unison, then their eyes narrowed and their consciousness returned to clarity, not knowing what had just happened.

As the Devil's Hand grew stronger, this ability was almost like mind control when used on ordinary people, and it was becoming more and more like the mental magic that had never been seen in Newbiss. Leon thought.

During the meal, Andasu sat close to Li Ang and chatted with the other rowers. Although she was talking, she basically just listened to them in silence.

The main topic was about the race tracks and the environment for enthusiasts in various parts of Newbis. They mentioned several islands, which Andasu naturally had not heard of. However, Leon knew a lot about them, so he explained them to the girl. She ignored what others said and listened to him carefully with her chin propped up.

"My favorite is still the track in the Powder Snow Islands. When we rush out of the col in the sunshine and soar into the air above the sea of trees covered with fluffy snow, wow, that feeling is so cool!" a rower said poetically.

"You memorized this sentence from the official introduction article of the track. It can only fool people who don't understand." Huo Zui Zhongde said.

"You guy!" The rower gritted his teeth, but he couldn't gain any verbal advantage in front of the professional host.

"Then I would recommend the Echo Rock Island track. When you rush into the canyon, the strong wind and shouts echoing from the rock walls turn into an endless roar. The bizarrely shaped rocks also test your technique. It's like turning into a dragon and racing against ferocious beasts," said Geer.

"That place is also the most difficult track, but the overall difficulty is not as good as the Glittering Fields." Lindson continued.

The difficulty of Flash Field lies in the fact that the contestants have been engaged in this competition from the very beginning and are fierce people who are completely different from those who started out as amateurs.

"I think Flower Tide Island is pretty good too, mainly because of the beautiful scenery. Oh, and I haven't asked for the name of the Platinum Ace yet?"

Andasu looked at Li Ang, and seeing that he had no objection, she said coldly, "Call me Wumor."

"An" is the name used by acquaintances and friends, and "Andasu" is her feminine real name. She chose to tell these people her surname of the Ruten tribe, which represents the white wolf pack.

Leon saw the girl touch her face lightly and guessed that she remembered the time when she lived in the Glittering Fields wearing a mask.

Although she still looks like a tomboy these days, the beauty of the Yunxiang princess can no longer be suppressed. In the past, a mask was a necessity.

Seeing Andasu's cold reaction, some people secretly looked at Meluna, who had been silent but whose stunning face could be vaguely seen under her messy curly hair.

The female swordsman swung her sword on the table, and the sword energy that seeped out invisibly cut off the cutlery in the man's hand, making him dare not look over there again.

After dinner, Li Ang winked and went back to his room as agreed at the back of the building before going out again. He walked towards his room with the three of them.

When he reached the door, he found that Andasu and Meluna were following him, with no intention of returning to their own room.

"Forget it, come in."

He was sure that he couldn't get through to them here, so he might as well just let them in.

"Hey, they are going in to discuss business, right?" Lindsen asked, looking at the backs of the three people.

"It must be. What else could it be? It must be." A contestant replied through gritted teeth.

The workers' dormitory brought Leon's memories back to a long time ago. Those were not memories of Newbis, but childhood memories and part of college memories on Earth. The layout here was quite similar, but the bed was a floor bed because the single room was a floor bed.

Li Ang pulled out a chair and sat down: "Just do whatever you want, we have to wait here until dark."

Even with spiritual motivation, it was still daylight. If someone was out of the casting range or looking at him from a very far distance, they might see Leon casting the spell, so he planned to wait until night to act.

After both of them sat down, there was a moment of silence in the air.

Li Ang had anticipated this. As long as there were no "problems", these two were the type of people who were quiet, and he didn't want the atmosphere to become tense, so he was the only one who had to speak.

"Meluna, since you're here anyway, let's talk."

Hearing Leon's cry, the black-haired girl trembled all over. She raised her head slightly, which had been drooping. She looked at Leon secretly over her drooping black hair. Seeing that his expression was calm, she timidly raised her head.

This really doesn't seem like the "This sword will kill you" sword master of the end. The changes in Leon's heart are reflected in the softening of his expression.

Meluna raised her hands, seemingly at a loss as to what to do. After a brief recollection, she folded them across her chest and said, "I'll listen carefully."

"..."

Leon stared at her without saying a word, and all he got in response was Meluna's puzzled look.

"No, with this action, are you trying to act weak or to stand out? Neither, it's weird. What are you doing?" Li Ang was confused.
