#2831 - Make a bet
Too late!
Absolutely too late!
Several people were splitting the ore non-stop, without a moment's rest, but it was still too late. The small mountain next to them was even growing bigger.
"Thanks for your hard work, everyone. Let's pause for a moment. Fill your backpacks with as many Mind Stones as possible, and we'll go back and turn in the quest."
Zaka was getting a little numb from sorting. Hearing Fang Heng's words, his hands were still constantly breaking down the ore.
"Huh? Boss Fang, are we done?"
"We're still a ways away from being done. Anyway, let's take a break for now. I need to go back and exchange for some contribution points."
"Okay, okay..."
Zaka said, putting away the small stool under his butt and stretching. Immediately, the bones in his body made a series of crackling sounds.
At the same time, at the edge of the desert forest.
Wynn, along with the three other mercenary团团长, gathered their men and ambushed in the more accessible area of the forest.
The desert area was extremely dangerous.
Having suffered a great loss last time, they didn't dare to try approaching it again easily.
So they considered changing their method of operation.
If they couldn't afford to offend him, couldn't they just hide?
Since 'Boss Fang' was going to the forest to collect Mind Stones and had a way to avoid the desert bugs, it would be stupid to continue invading the desert.
Change tactics!
No matter what happened in the middle, 'Boss Fang' would always have to transport the ore back to the ship to exchange for contribution points, right?
Wynn chose to switch the battlefield directly, choosing to ambush on the only path leading from the desert to the ship.
He didn't believe they wouldn't come out!
Once they spotted 'Boss Fang' and his group, they would immediately lead the team from the rear to completely surround them!
They would definitely make them pay the price!
Behind the lurking team players, Acrylic and his ten-plus men had just arrived to join the team.
Acrylic was tall and burly. Surrounded by his men, he came to the big tree where Wynn was ambushing, his eyes coldly watching the distant path, his tone slightly teasing, "Wynn, is it necessary to be so careful?"
Wynn couldn't help but smile bitterly when he thought that he had the same idea as Acrylic not long ago.
"Brother, listen to me, that guy is not easy to deal with."
"How hard can it be?" Acrylic didn't take it to heart, and said, "Just lure him out, and I'll take care of that guy. I'll leave the other small fries to you. After it's done, I want half of that ore area."
"Okay!"
Wynn agreed immediately.
Acrylic nodded, said nothing more, and signaled the team to lie in ambush around him and wait patiently.
After ambushing for half an hour, a player came in a hurry and reported, "Boss, a few people have come out of the desert. It's not Wu Xiao and the others. It should be 'Boss Fang'. They're heading this way, and they're likely trying to return to the ship, but they're not carrying any supplies."
Is that so…
Wynn and the other mercenary团团长 exchanged glances.
They felt a little strange.
Weren't they supposed to be transporting supplies to the ship?
Where were the supplies?
All in their backpacks? That's impossible…
"Don't worry about so much. Get ready to attack."
Wynn signaled the team to get ready and said to Acrylic, "Acrylic, they have a way to enter the desert area without being attacked by the bugs. We have to find a way to force it out of them. Remember to keep them alive."
"Got it."
Hiding in the forest, watching Fang Heng and his group of four appear in sight, Wynn waved his hand.
"Go!"
Fang Heng looked around, and finally focused his gaze on Wynn, who was leading the group.
"Who are you?"
Wynn scrutinized Fang Heng and the others, "Wynn, mercenary团团长. May I ask which one of you is 'Boss Fang'?"
"That's me. What's the matter?"
"I'm here to collect a debt. You killed Chloe and my companions."
Fang Heng looked suspicious and asked, "I know Chloe, but your companions?"
"They were lured into the desert by you and died at the hands of the bugs. You have to take responsibility for their deaths."
"Oh, okay, so what do you want?"
Fang Heng said, spreading his hands, a smile that was hard to hide appearing at the corner of his mouth.
He guessed right.
They really came to make trouble.
What a coincidence, isn't it?
Relying on Zaka and the others to sort the supplies was too inefficient. Wu Xiao and the others had to constantly return to the ship to transport the engineer shovels. Right now, there was still a shortage of coolies for refining gems.
And now someone had come to his door!
Since they were here, he would just leave them all behind to be coolies!
Wynn said coldly, "Chloe paid money to buy your life. I only want you to be responsible for the lives of my companions. Your companions can leave."
"Well, indeed, very fair."
Wynn was staring at Fang Heng's every move, his pupils suddenly shrinking.
Fang Heng seemed to disappear out of thin air, and then quickly crossed the distance in front of him and appeared directly in front of him.
"Bang!!!"
Wynn was shocked!
The two sides were clearly maintaining a safe distance, but in just an instant, the other party instantly approached him. At the same time, the energy shield attached to his tactical suit shattered.
The shock wave generated by the energy explosion knocked him backward, but suddenly a hand grabbed him tightly in place!
As the shock wave dissipated, Fang Heng grabbed Wynn's neck with one hand and lifted him into the air, with a hint of disdain, "What? You dare to come and cause trouble with this little strength?"
Not good!
Everything happened too fast. It wasn't until the sound of the explosion that the surrounding mercenaries realized that their boss had been controlled by Fang Heng. Their hearts skipped a beat, and they all raised their guns and aimed at Fang Heng.
"Stop it!"
Wynn's forehead was covered with a layer of cold sweat.
He didn't know why, but the moment he was grabbed by Fang Heng's hand, he completely lost control of his body.
Wynn was sure.
If the surrounding players opened fire, nothing would happen to Boss Fang, but he would definitely die!
Wu Xiao, that guy!
He even said that Boss Fang's strength was not as good as Acrylic's?
Acrylic's strength was indeed terrifying, but in his opinion, Boss Fang and Acrylic were taking two different paths. Boss Fang's strange sudden advance ability was even more terrifying than Acrylic!
Facing a life-and-death crisis, Wynn's heart was pounding wildly. He forced himself to stay calm and stared at Fang Heng, "What do you want?"
"Didn't you want to kill me? I'll give you a chance to kill me. If you can't kill me, then honestly help me do something."
Wynn gritted his teeth, "Okay!"
Fang Heng immediately released the hand that was holding Wynn's neck. At the same time, Wynn suddenly felt that he had regained control of his body. He quickly jumped back behind Fang Heng and shouted, "Acrylic! What are you waiting for!"
Fang Heng looked back in the direction of Wynn's voice, and saw a burly middle-aged man walking out of the crowd.
Acrylic was already burly, but at this time, his muscles were even more explosive, blooming with a visible scarlet blood energy. He looked at Fang Heng, his eyes filled with a strong fighting spirit.
