Ark, they took my future seriously

So Mudstone decided not to let go.

It would be fine if the other party couldn't stand it and retreated, but if they insisted, Mudstone would observe for a few more days and make sure that they had no bad thoughts about Carlo before considering whether to go to Victoria.

"Alas, this is not a solution. The Regent's mercenaries might come to kill us in a couple of days, and we still have to deal with Vina all the time."

Carlo was touched by Vina's kindness.

But Boss Mudstone was still worried, and Carlo had to listen to her advice.

Besides, the threat from the Regent might come at any time.

Carlo felt very uncomfortable being caught in the middle.

Hearing Carlo's complaints, Mudstone was also somewhat moved. She couldn't help but reflect on whether she was too narrow-minded.

Maybe Vina really just thinks highly of Carlo's abilities?

But she thinks others are sluts.

To be honest, it was somewhat insulting for her to think of Vina like that.

Is there any better way to transition?

Mudstone thought for a moment, and suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind.

After thinking of this idea, Mudstone immediately pulled Carlo's arm excitedly:

"Carlo, I have thought of a safer solution."

"Hmm? Boss, what do you think?"

Mudstone cleared his throat, straightened his back, and said seriously:

"Now they want us to join, and we don't trust them, so why don't we have a running-in period to see how we get along."

"Breaking-in period!" When Carlo heard this word, he instantly knew what Boss Mudstone was talking about.

The term "running-in period" is a term often used by Sarkaz mercenaries.

Often when several mercenaries receive missions from the same employer, they will gather together before carrying out the mission in order to better carry out the mission.

"Boss, are you saying that we should let Vina and the others join our team first, and if we think they are trustworthy teammates, we can officially merge with them later?"

"Yes, that's it. The idea I came up with is brilliant, isn't it?" Mudstone raised his head proudly.

"Okay, you are worthy of being the boss. I will reward you handsomely tonight." Carlo immediately praised the older girl.

When talking about rewards, Mud Rock showed a complaining look:

"You're lying. You haven't rewarded me in a few days because of Vina's troubles. After we merge with them, I guess there will be no chance."

"Impossible. If there is no opportunity, we will create it. After we become a team with them, we won't have to worry about being found by Vina when we are in the woods on the mountain."

"I hope so. Carlo, go inform them who are waiting outside. If they can accept my suggestion, we can get used to it for a while. If they can't accept it, then tell them not to come again."

"it is good."

Carlo nodded, turned around and walked outside the camp to relay Mudstone's ideas and suggestions to Vina and others who were waiting outside.

Morgan protested the mudstone suggestion.

But Vina accepted it happily.

"I agree with Captain Mudstone's suggestion. I believe we can achieve success through cooperation."

Just like that, Vina and her group temporarily became part of the Mudrock Team in the name of running-in.

night.

The Mudstone Team had dinner with Vina and others.

During the meal, Mudstone kept observing Vina silently.

According to Mudstone's observation, Vina and Carlo have always maintained a normal social distance.

It seems that Vina's holding of Carlo's hand a few days ago was probably just Vina's eagerness to find a talent at the time, rather than any improper thoughts about Carlo.

After confirming that Vina would not have any bad thoughts about Carlo, Mudstone relaxed and returned to the tent to sleep early.

After saying good night to each other, Carlo and Vina returned to their tents to rest.

And just after they returned to the tent.

The deduction system, which had been silent for several days, was finally reset.

[System reset completed, do you want to start the simulation? ]

When Vina saw the system prompt, she instantly lost all sleepiness.

He had worked hard for several days just to bring Carlo into his camp.

Now that she’s been linked to Carlo, should her six-game losing streak in the future come to an end?

Without any hesitation, Vina immediately joined in the deduction of the future.

Carlo on the other side also shared the same view as Vina.

Whether going to Victoria is a blessing or a curse, you will know after running the system in the future simulation.

[On November 1094, 11, you and the Glasgow gang led by Vina temporarily merged.]

[On November 11, you detected that the mercenaries of Regent Kazdel were approaching. With the cooperation of you and Vina, the mercenaries of Regent were defeated.]

[After defeating the Regent's mercenaries, Vina suggests that you go to Londinium. Do you agree? ]

Carlo's plan for the next few days was to capture the Regent's mercenaries here and then extort money from Theresis.

But now that they have joined forces with Vina, there is no need to do such things that only a mountain king would do.

So, Carlo followed Vina's advice and the whole team went to Londinium.

[You have organized your weapons and equipment, and the whole team will cross the Kazdel Wasteland and head to Victoria Londinium.]

[Luckily, you did not encounter any blockade by Kazdel forces when you were crossing the Kazdel Wasteland.]

[On December 12, you successfully entered Syracuse. After a lot of running-in along the way, your tacit understanding with the Glasgow Gang has improved to the point of trust.]

[On December 12, at the Victorian border, you encountered a fork in the road, one was a mountain route, and the other was a road through the wilderness.]

[Vina concluded that there would definitely be no Duke's troops on the desert road to Londinium, so she suggested that you take the main road.]

[You encountered the high-speed fleet of the Duke of Victoriacaster on your way to Londinium.]

[The Duke of Caister's troops surrounded you, the pitiful three hundred people. Under the threat of the naval guns that outnumber you, Caister demanded that you hand over Aslan's descendant, Vina, or he would bomb you into ashes.]

[Vina stood up responsibly and expressed her willingness to accept Kaster's captives for the sake of everyone. What is your choice?]

Ok?

Who is Kester?

Carlo was confused when he saw this line of description.

In his previous life, Carlo's memories of Terra were mainly about the Integration Movement and Rhodes Island. Carlo was confused when he was suddenly surrounded by the Grand Duke of Victoria.

But no matter whether he is Wellington or Caister.

Carlo has no precedent of selling his teammates.

There's nothing much to say. People can die, but Vina can't be friends.

Chapter 124: Little Vina, watch me teach you a lesson.

[On November 11, under Carlo's plan, you defeated Tresis's mercenaries without any casualties.]

"As expected of Carlo, this move is extraordinary. Fortunately, Carlo showed mercy a few days ago, otherwise we would be buried in the ground now."

Vina now feels like she has finally made it.

From the first time she deduced until now, she had been frustrated almost every time Tracy's name appeared.

Occasionally, if they gained a small advantage, they would be immediately crushed by Tracy.

So when Vina saw that she and Carlo were able to defeat the Regent's mercenaries in just two days, she felt that her future was stable and her good days were coming.

[On December 12, at the Victorian border, you came to a fork in the road. One was a mountain route, and the other was a road through the wilderness. What was your choice?]

Vina carefully recalled the previous deductions.

If she remembered correctly, this was the time when the main force of the Sarkaz arrived in Londinium.

The dukes of Victoria tried to prevent other dukes from contacting the Sarkaz to take over Londinium.

At this time, a battle was taking place both openly and underground in the city of Londinium.

The Dukes' attention was on Londinium, which meant they would have no problem taking the main road.

And if they encounter the Duke's patrol, they can easily resolve it with Carlo and his own fighting ability.

So Vina chose to take the main road.

However, what she didn't expect was that because of her momentary carelessness and arrogance, the entire team was in danger.

[You encountered the high-speed fleet of the Duke of Victoriacaster on your way to Londinium.]

[The Duke of Caister's fleet has an armored battleship, ten frigates, and a total of 50,000 soldiers. With your strength, you can't be their opponent.]

[The Duke of Caister recognized your identity and asked you to surrender. Since you are a descendant of the previous king, she can let your followers go.]

When Vina saw Kaister's name, her eyebrows instantly furrowed.

This was not the first time she had dealt with the Duke of Caster.

When she was still a minor, she was secretly hunted for a long time by the Duke of Caister's men.

Finally, she was able to escape the pursuit with the help of Gawain, sneak into the territories of other dukes, hide in the sewers of Londinium, and get to know everyone in Glasgow.

This old lady, who was full of conspiracy and intrigue, had always planned to capture her and make her king, and then use this to intimidate and command other dukes.

What is your choice?

【Surrender/Refuse.】

If Vina was the only one present, she would never agree to it.

But at this time, she was surrounded not only by her long-time friends, but also innocent outsiders such as the Mudrock Team who were implicated.

And the main reason for the current accident was herself.

If she hadn't become a little conceited and inflated after getting Carlo, they wouldn't have been ambushed here.

So whether as the boss of the Glasgow gang or out of guilt as the culprit, Vina decided to take responsibility for it all.

[You tell Duke Kaster that you are willing to surrender, but ask him to ask everyone present to leave.]

[The Duke of Kaster, standing on the bridge and looking at you from afar, gave you a confirming reply. ]

[However, just as you were about to board Caister's warship to surrender, Carlo stopped you and said that the Mudstone Squad had never sold out their teammates before, so you couldn't surrender.]

【Do you listen to Carlo?】

"No. I can't let them die with me."

[You responded to Carlo: "I am not a formal member of the Mudrock Squad yet, so I don't have to follow the traditions of the Mudrock Squad."]

[Carlo said firmly: "As long as you join the Mudstone Squad for one day, you are a member of the Mudstone Squad."]

[At this time, the other companions also said that they would live together and die together, and they would never let you sacrifice yourself.]

Do you continue to surrender?

"Go on." Vina chose yes without hesitation: "Everyone's mistake is their own responsibility. If I hadn't suggested taking the main road, this wouldn't have happened."

【Carlo strongly disagrees.】

【You insist on surrendering.】

……

five minutes later.

[You said that as the boss, you can't let everyone die with you, you want to exchange your freedom for their lives. ]

[Carlo strongly objected and said that if you surrender alone here today, they will not live either.]
