Seeing that everyone was interested, Li Yi also touched his nose with a wry smile, and then seemed to suddenly remember something. He turned his head abruptly and looked at Lincoln to the side. This guy named Lincoln, after seeing Gandalf easily kill the Raging Rock Beast with Li Yi and his party in the "Red Square", also felt that this trip had no meaning. Immediately, he did not stay in the "Red Square" for more, but followed Li Yi and his party out of the "Red Square".
In the face of such a "guest", Li Yi is not easy to give an eviction order. But seeing that the other party seemed to have a posture of following him, Li Yi had no choice but to say to Lincoln: "Hehe, I said Lincoln, what are your plans next?" This angry rock beast has not been defeated, are you going to go elsewhere to find a monster that can be challenged? β
Lincoln was stunned for a moment for Li Yi's remarks, and after a little hesitation, a faint smile resurfaced on Lincoln's face. Looking straight at Li Yi, Lincoln said with a smile: "Hehe, Li Yi, it seems that it has been more than ten years since you arrived in the Shengyuan Continent, and you still haven't changed the habit of being in the Land of Forsaken Chaos." What's the matter, do you think that if I follow you, I will end up secretly killing you? Speaking bluntly about his thoughts, Lincoln did not comment on Li Yi's approach.
Seeing Lincoln say this, Li Yi didn't have much to explain. just shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and then touched his nose and said to Lincoln: "This is also a matter of no way, since you have already explained, I will not do much to cover up." It is undeniable that if it were someone else today, maybe I, Li Yi, would not be so taboo. It's just that after all, I encountered too many black hands in that abandoned land in the early years, so I really can't treat you who are also from there calmly. And, Lincoln, to be honest, are you really comfortable following us? β
was asked by Li Yi, but Lincoln did not immediately refute. It's just that he still looked straight at Li Yi, and after being silent for a while, Lincoln said lightly: "If you want me to be honest, in this world, there is no one who can really let me treat it sincerely." It's just that for being able to meet you in this 'Red Square', I feel that this kind of fate is indeed not shallow. And when I came out of the mountains, I really didn't have any clear plans. When I was listening to your conversation, I could tell that you seemed to have formed your own mercenary group. I also know a thing or two about mercenary groups. So until I have a definite goal, I'm going to follow you everywhere. β
"It's because you don't have any plans for the next step that you're going to walk around with us? Then do you know that being a mercenary is not a good job, and you may not be able to fall in any mission. And I can tell you right now that what we're going to do is a war mercenary, and for someone like you who is looking for the pinnacle of power, it's not going to be fun to fight those mediocre soldiers every day. Regarding Lincoln's previous outspokenness, Li Yi had no objection. After all, Lincoln told the truth, people like them who were born in abandoned places have always had a kind of resistance to outsiders in their bones, so Li Yi can understand what Lincoln said. But understanding is understanding, Li Yi's subconscious, he still doesn't really want such a time bomb-like character to follow him around.
Seeing that Li Yi always shirked himself intentionally or unintentionally, Lincoln was never angry. In fact, he couldn't figure out why he suddenly had the urge to follow Li Yi. But now in this situation, Lincoln really didn't know where to go next. After all, it's not a good choice to try your luck everywhere to find a magical beast to challenge like before. So at this time, Lincoln seemed to have made up his mind, and said to Li Yi with a smile: "Hehe, no matter what you say, I just want to rely on you, what can you do." β
Faced with Lincoln's almost scoundrel statement, Li Yi finally felt a little helpless. After all, this Lincoln is also a real five-fold peak powerhouse, if it really starts, Li Yi will not be afraid of him. But in this situation, everyone has no grievances, and if there is a big fight for no reason, Li Yi feels worthless. Faced with this situation, after being silent for a long time, Li Yi finally touched his nose helplessly, and said to Lincoln with a wry smile: "Okay, even if I obey you, since you want to follow, just follow." It is not a pleasure to have a five-fold peak strength powerhouse by your side all the year round. Come, Lincoln, tell me if you have any thoughts on me being a close bodyguard. β
Seeing that Li Yi suddenly joked with himself after being silent for a long time, Lincoln suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. However, after occasionally glancing at Li Yi's eyes, Lincoln saw that Li Yi's eyes did not have a lunar look at this time, so even if he didn't have any scruples, he smiled and said, "Hehe, with your strength, you still need bodyguards?" Well, since I'm going to follow you this time, I don't have anything to say about being your bodyguard. But the price of my bodyguard is very high, can you afford it? β
"What's the price, let's hear it." Li Yi was also careless at this time, and said casually at the moment.
"Well, why don't you have to have one gold coin a day?" After thinking about it for a while, Lincoln offered such a "very high" price.
"Huh! The price is not low, but I, Li Yi, am a well-known landlord, and I have taken care of your bodyguard, so let's start working today. In the face of Lincoln's "sky-high price", Li Yi immediately made a decision and hired Lincoln.
Seeing Li Yi and Lincoln joking like two idiots on the side, Yadi and Pat and others around them all rolled their eyes. They really couldn't understand why two powerful guys were so interested.
However, just when Li Yi and Lincoln were joking like idiots, Bettina suddenly moved, her right hand stretched forward out out of thin air, and the next moment, Bettina had an extra note in her hand.
This process seems hidden, but for people like Pat and Yadi, who are not weak, it is not a secret move. Immediately, ignoring Li Yi and Lincoln, they all curiously came to Bettina's side to see what Bettina had received.
"Something, something, open it and take a look." Leaning over to Bettina's side, Yadi kept urging.
Seeing that everyone had such a high level of "enthusiasm", Bettina immediately smiled wryly, and then took out the note she received, opened it and looked at it.
The note was just an ordinary note, and there were only four simple words written on itβthe people had arrived.
Seeing this sentence, not only Bettina knew what it meant. Even Pat, who had always been a little slow to react on the side, said in understanding: "Hehe, it seems that the dead soldiers summoned by Bettina have finally arrived." β
Seeing that Patrick broke the meaning of the note, Bettina did not hide it. Putting away the note, Bettina opened her mouth and said to Yadi: "Yadi, go and call Li Yi, let's go and meet those dead soldiers together." β
Hearing Bettina's words, Yadi couldn't help but look at Li Yi and Lincoln on the side, and the two of them didn't know what they were still teasing at this time. I saw that the two of them really looked like idiots, since they were still there and kept bickering.
Seeing this situation, Yadi and the others shook their heads helplessly. Barak also sighed helplessly: "Usually when I look at Li Yi, he looks unfathomable. Why is it that when I meet his fellow countryman now, it seems like he has become an idiot? β
Regarding Barak's words, Yadi and the others also nodded in agreement. But after the joke, Bettina still spoke: "Okay, let's stop making this kind of joke yet, it's important to get down to business, Yadi, you go and call Li Yi and tell him about it." β
"Well, seriously, I'm also really curious about why Li Yi became like this." As if he hadn't broken free from the joke just now, Yadi kept muttering as he walked towards Li Yi.
After walking to Li Yi's side, Yadi dragged Li Yi, who was still playing with Lincoln with great interest at this time.
Suddenly being dragged aside, Li Yi was stunned at first, and after seeing that the person who came was Yadi, Li Yi asked with a smile: "Yadi, is there something wrong?" β
"It's nothing, it's just that you're too idiot, come forward to save you." Seeing that Li Yi had lost all his former shrewdness at this time, Yadi couldn't help but sneer.
"What?" However, Li Yi obviously didn't understand the meaning of Yadi's words, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
"Nothing, no kidding you. Bettina told you to come over and tell you something. Not going to continue to laugh with Li Yi, Yadi said the right thing directly.
Hearing Yadi say this, Li Yi also put away the smile on his face. Turning his head to look at Bettina in the distance, Li Yi suddenly thought that if Bettina called herself, then it was estimated that those dead soldiers already had news.
Turning his head and letting Lincoln wait here for a while, Li Yi followed Yadi over.
After taking the note from Bettina and looking at it, Li Yi asked, "It seems that your people are all very fast, and they can be assembled in such a short time." So where are they now, there is no paper to say where they are now, where can we find them? β
"Oh, that's right, when I gathered them before, I told them that in order not to expose their targets, I asked them to gather in the Ulan Mountains, and if we go now, we should be able to find them." Bettina spoke from the side.
"Well, well, let's go over now." After speaking, Li Yi turned around and prepared to call Lincoln over.
Seeing Li Yi doing this, Yadi hurriedly pulled down the hand that Li Yi was about to wave.
was dragged by Yadi again, and Li Yi asked suspiciously: "What are you doing Yadi, is there anything wrong?" β
"Li Yi, are you going to take that guy with you?" Having guessed what Li Yi was thinking, Yadi asked angrily.
"Yes, what's wrong with calling him along, but don't forget, he's also a five-fold peak powerhouse, maybe, his strength is still above me, what's wrong with having such a person join." I don't know why Yadi behaved like this, Li Yi patiently explained.
"Hehe, Li Yi, I have been with you for many years, and you have told me about your hometown before. That kind of person, you can really rest assured that they are there for us. Didn't you say that your people there have no integrity at all? What's more, what we are going to do this time is strictly speaking, it is a big rebellion, so you are not afraid that he will go to King Tianlan to tell us a secret? Staring straight at Li Yi, Yadi said the scruples in his heart.
Hearing Yadi say this, Li Yi looked up and looked at the Pat and Bettina siblings who were surrounding him. Touching his nose with a wry smile, Li Yi opened his mouth and asked, "You think so too?" β
"Well, yes. Although I don't know much about your hometown, but in any case, we are really a little uncomfortable to bring in someone who has nothing to do with us for no reason, and we don't know his details at all. Yadi is right, after all, what we have to do is to rebel. After a moment of silence, Pat said seriously.
Seeing that Pat said this, Li Yi also fell silent. After being silent for a long time, Li Yi raised his head and said slowly to everyone: "Everyone, since I, Li Yi, dare to brave the condemnation of the world and prepare to confront the Tianlan Empire, I will definitely not do something that will put myself in a state of no return. So, for this Lincoln, I hope you can rest assured. I don't know why, but my instincts have always been accurate to the point that I can't believe myself. This time, I never felt any danger to this man. Even if he came from the same abandoned land as I did, I don't think that he alone would have any effect on our plans. So, trust me, I'm not doing anything stupid this time. After all, we need a strong man of his level very much now. β
When Li Yi spoke, his expression was always very serious. And seeing Li Yi's serious expression, everyone who had always felt inappropriate about Li Yi's impulsive approach before was also infected by Li Yi. Knowing that Li Yi was definitely not untargeted this time, everyone exhaled one after another after being silent for a while.
Yadi stretched out his hand and patted Li Yi's shoulder, and said, "Li Yi, since you have said so, if I still blindly oppose it, it will be too boring." We all thought you were hot-headed this time, so there was some opposition. Now it seems that you also have your plans. Well, let's not say much. Since I chose to follow you in the first place, I should respect your choice. β
"Thank you, everyone, don't worry, I, Li Yi, will definitely not do anything that will damage everyone." Seriously said thank you to Yadi and the others, and then Li Yi didn't stop any longer, turned around and walked to Lincoln who was waiting in the distance.
Yadi and the others watched Li Yi walk to Lincoln's side, and instead of showing the expression that made them look like idiots before, they had a solemn face, as if they were talking to Lincoln about something important. And Lincoln also put away his playful expression and listened carefully on the sidelines.
After talking for a long time, Yadi and the others saw Lincoln, who had always been silent, nodded solemnly, and then Li Yi smiled happily. Stretched out his hand and patted Lincoln's shoulder, and then Li Yi and Lincoln both walked towards Yadi and the others with smiles on their faces.
"Ladies and gentlemen, from now on, Lincoln will be a comrade-in-arms on the same front as us, and I hope we can create brilliance together." As soon as he walked to Yadi and the others, Li Yi said with a smile.
"Hehe, I really didn't expect that you were still plotting to do such a big thing. I Lincoln admires you, this kind of life is interesting. From now on, we will be comrades-in-arms, and I hope you will not have any prejudices against me. Following Li Yi, Lincoln also said with a smile.
