Xiao Lan looks to Luo: "Are you alright? I went into another The Endymion earlier, it was all foggy and there were no NPCs inside the ship, but I couldn't reach you either there or after I came out."

Luo spread his arms to show that he was fine: "I had a similar experience, but I went into an empty area with only white mist. I was unlucky enough to run into some pissed off guy on his rounds and almost got found by him, so I wasted a little time getting out."

He put it mildly, but the dangers involved speak for themselves.

Once discovered by the Juggernaut, the unrecovered man could be torn to pieces again, and it is hard to say if he will ever meet Xiao Lan again this time, and it is even possible that anyone he has come into contact with before, including Xiao Lan, will be purged along with him.

Xiao Lan pointed up and asked in a whisper, "How did he manage to find you?"

Luo thought for a moment, "Probably after I recovered more and more, it made him vaguely aware of it, after all, our power comes from the same origin. But he's always cautious, he would have sent contracted players to check it out first."

"I probably won't be able to use my powers for the rest of the day to be on the safe side, and being found out would put you in danger, sorry." He looked at Xiao Lan's wound and sounded a little regretful.

Xiao Lan waved his hand, "It's okay, it's just a small injury, it doesn't affect the hands."

Suddenly, there was a loud clatter overhead, as if a huge beast was crashing into the hull.

The whole of The Endymion shook for a moment, even the ground beneath its feet.

Xiao Lan Lift up your head, what's up there?

According to The Endymion's volume, what level of power would it take to make this kind of noise?

Xiao Lan asks Luo with a gesture: Indentured player?

Luo shook his head and said he wasn't sure.

Just then, a man leapt down the stairs a short distance ahead.

Short, flaxen hair with a stylish look - it's Wen Zhixian.

His body carried a lot of blood and his clothes were partially torn, but his face was cleared of its previous dangerous look and became a little more relaxed.

Although Wen Zhixian looks relaxed, the shape and pace look like he's on the run.

Xiao Lan couldn't help but wonder how he ran into this guy when he was on the run most of the time.

Wen Zhixian also saw Xiao Lan and waved at him as he ran towards him, "Hi again Little Lanlan."

Luo was a little wary: " Little Lanlan?"

Who is this man? Why did he suddenly flash up and look so intimate with Mr. What had happened during the time he was offline?

Wen Zhixian also noticed the extra person: "Who is this?"

"This is Fei Luo, my teammate." Xiao Lan said. Xiao Lan said, before introducing Wen Zhixian to Luo again.

Wen Zhixian also waved at Luo: "Hello, little Luo Luo."

Luo: "...... Nice to meet you."

The name is strange but ...... is the same as Mr. Forget it.

Xiao Lan looked at Wen Zhixian with a blank stare: "Are you running away? Who's after you again?"

Wen Zhixian shook his head vigorously to show his innocence: "No, no, no, no, my goal was accomplished.

Xiao Lan is puzzled: "An accident?"

Wen Zhixian continued, "Yeah, there's a weird guy up there attacking the players and A Cheng is trying to find a way to distract him."

As he speaks, Feng Cheng's figure also appears at the entrance to the staircase, nodding at Wen Zhixian.

Wen Zhixian immediately waved at Xiao Lan and the two of them, "Come on, let's talk on the way."

So the running party became four.

Wen Zhixian said as he ran, "There's a guy with dreadlocks and beach trousers up there with a baseball bat, whoever he sees he'll strike, and the weaker ones are basically killed in seconds."

Xiao Lan asks, "The kind of crazy person who likes to kill people in copies?"

Wen Zhixian shook his head, "Not like that, he's too strong."

"I was in the middle of a standoff with a troublesome old guy and he cracked the old guy open with a couple of sticks straight from behind, and if I hadn't slipped away and had the help of A Cheng, I think I would have had my head blown off too."

"Then there was a small boss that blocked the way, and that was also taken care of in a couple of blows."

"This fight is too strong, this feeling, except for Wu She the top senior player of that level, it's only the contract player, I wonder why the contract came here, is there some kind of bug here?"

Xiao Lan glanced at Luo.

Luo's look is dark and uncertain.

Luo had only just gotten away, and the contracted players had come so quickly. It seemed that the Juggernaut was really cautious about news of the Disobedient.

But at the same time Xiao Lan has a question: "Why would contracted players attack other people?"

Wen Zhixian said, "Probably there was some kind of mission, probably something in the mission that was relevant to the players present."

Feng Cheng added: "Very often certain indentured players have a rather brutal approach to solving problems - if they don't know who created the problem, they solve all those who might have created it."

Xiao Lan stared, "That's a bit rough! Aren't they human too?"

Wen Zhixian shrugged: "They ah...... post-contract players will always feel superior. Some of these extreme ones even think that they are no longer creatures in the same dimension as humans. So in their eyes, there may not be any difference between players, NPCs or other creatures."

Xiao Lan's heart sank.

The Juggernaut gives the indentured player more power than normal and gives them pride in who they are after the indenture.

Even indentured players will actively reject what was once a normal player status.

This not only firmly enlisted this powerful part of the war effort, but also separated them from the ordinary players in terms of their position, making them shepherds in their own hands, who could then better help them maintain order in the Advent world.

Xiao Lan asks, "Will he kill everyone in the playground?"

Wen Zhixian nodded: "Yes, it's happened before, my dad got out of it once, with props."

He continued to ask Xiao Lan, "Have you all completed the main quest? If you're done, let's go, the side quests aren't as important as your lives."

As they ran, there was an occasional rumble from above the cruise ship that sounded like the commotion of a battle.

The rumbling is gradually approaching and seems to be trending downwards.

Several people looked serious.

They ran up to a viewing platform and began to contact their respective organisations.

Xiao Lan took out the bracelet used to contact the organisation and pressed the call button.

"Well~ sweetie ah ......" came a mushy voice from across the room, probably not looking at his contacts.

"...... I'm ......SB001" Xiao Lan struggled to say his code name.

"SB001? You're still alive ......" The voice on the other side seemed a little surprised, "We just got word that Father Michael's background isn't what it seems and seems a little creepy, we all thought you were dead and were planning to re-recruit hahaha. "

Xiao Lan speechless: "......"

Michael, how long has it been since the priest was cold before you guys got the news, the pheasant organization's sources are really rubbish.

And what the hell is a re-recruitment, do you really get people recruited by this pheasant organisation?

Xiao Lan took a deep breath: "The mission has been completed, the ship has had an accident and probably won't arrive in port properly, come and pick me up."

"......" there was a brief pause across the room to confirm, "There's a charge for that."

Xiao Lan asked, "How much?"

"Well, I counted ......157281.5." A number exploded from across the room.

This offer is actually accurate to 50 cents, highlighting the stingy nature of this poor pheasant organisation.

Xiao Lan was so quick to say, "...... no problem."

Would the man who vowed to stand at the pinnacle of poverty be afraid of a mere $100,000 or so of poverty value?

These wouldn't have lasted even a minute in his hands.

"Well then, you wait half an hour or so and we'll be there, our boat is very recognisable, you'll be able to tell at a glance." The other side said.

"Wait." Xiao Lan hurriedly said, "Can't you guys just hurry up?!"

Half an hour is enough time to get his ass kicked a thousand times.

"Uh ...... that ...... SB001 ah, you also know that the organization's finances are rather tight. The ship that was running fast recently was seized because of illegal substitution, so, just ...... but, but you don't have to worry, for a good employee like you we will definitely not give up ......" The voice across the table was getting smaller and smaller.

"Have a good day at work!" The other party ended the conversation wisely.

Xiao Lan: "......"

There is a sense of having entered a dark workshop for work, and because there are so many slots in this poor pheasant organisation, it is rather impossible to talk about it.

He turned his head to Luo: "What about you?"

Luo's organisation seems to be very formal and reliable, so it's better than a pheasant organisation.

Luo took out his contact device and pressed call.

When he dialed for the third time, he found that he could not get through to the other side.

Luo looked at the contact in his hand, "Seems to be treated as a pariah by the organisation."

Xiao Lan: "......"

Luo explains, "After all, the world's leading arms dealer was involved, and leaving any trace of the organization could have implicated them, so they probably had no intention of letting me back in, and even if The Endymion had made it into port, I probably would have been greeted with nothing more than an assassination attempt. If a player gets this identity and wants to get through, they'll probably have to find another way to do it themselves."

Big organisations are so cruel.

There are those who are outwardly glamorous and wealthy, but in reality even their old homes have turned against them.

Xiao Lan suddenly felt the warmth of a pheasant organisation.

Although they are poor and stingy and don't reimburse, at least they don't abandon their staff.

Of course, it's also possible that they couldn't recruit new people so they had to come to the rescue ......

On the other hand, Wen Zhixian has also contacted his organisation.

Soon his support had arrived, a helicopter parked a short distance away and a rope ladder lowered, gesturing for Wen Zhixian to get on.

It looks both professional and full of class.

Wen Zhixian sent Feng Cheng up first, and handed Xiao Lan a suspicious-looking Little Ka sheet.

It's the kind that gets shoved through the door when you stay in a hotel, from XX young women to XX students to XXol.

You can experience the kind of tea that a police officer can make.

Xiao Lan was puzzled when he picked it up and found it was a prop called [Big Brother, Come and Play].

It looks like a Little Ka piece, but is actually a contact prop, similar to Wu Ting's [Dating].

Wen Zhixian smiled, "Keep in touch."

Xiao Lan nods.

Wen Zhixian turned around and leapt up the rope ladder: "Goodbye Little Lanlan and Little Luo Luo, good luck~"

Xiao Lan also waved goodbye to him.

By this time, a number of players had already contacted their respective organisations.

In addition to helicopters, various motorboats, speedboats and even submarines are approaching The Endymion.

Several players jumped straight downwards by opening windows with the advantage of their physique, then swam quickly through the sea to leave.

Xiao Lan found a clock around and saw that it was only five minutes past the half hour mark.

Why does everyone else's organisation come to the rescue so quickly?

Damn, pheasant organizations are still unreliable ......

The rumbling sounds of battle were getting closer to where they were, and every now and then they could see the hull being broken and splintered, and the shaking sensation was getting stronger.

You can even faintly hear the movement of the players as they fight.

Xiao Lan frowned, "We can't stay here any longer, we need to run farther away."

As the remaining players become fewer and fewer, the more dangerous it becomes for them to hide and seek with the indentured players here.

The two men left the viewing platform and continued on.

They continued in the direction of the bottom of the ship.

The movement from the indentured players behind them kept on going, and the vibrations of the ship became more and more violent, to the point where it felt like The Endymion was about to be taken apart.

Running up to a certain section, Xiao Lan noticed that the cabin here had started to take on water, and it was not clear who had fought here, knocking many cracks and holes in the hull.

There is a huge amount of water pouring in, up to the back of the feet, and it is increasing.

Xiao Lan suddenly had an idea: "How about we direct a Titanic?"

Luo: "YoujumpIjump?"

Why would the gentleman have such leisure while running for his life? But it's not like he can't work with ......

Xiao Lan shook his head, "No, I mean sink the boat."

The Endymion is also considered the bosses' lair, and while no boss will care if you tear it down a little, what if you just lift their lair? Will it reap poverty value.

And ...... looks like The Endymion is actually not far from the wreck, so why not give a little hand?

Luo: "......"

He held his smile with difficulty, "Yes, sir."

As it happens, one shouldn't have any unrealistic expectations of the gentleman's romantic cells.
