Chapter 40

After arriving at the union hall, the newspaper Shane's name was quickly brought to an elegant office.

As Remutt's second desk, Sean's office wasn't as big as he'd imagined, but it was elaborate enough.

Both the office equipment and the leather sofa used to entertain visitors smelled of the old days.

These things could not be obtained with money. This meant that Sean did not have a special hobby in this area, which meant that he had a much deeper power than he could have on the surface.

There were three other people in the office besides Sean.

These three men were two males and one female. Both men were Caucasians.

He was dressed like a mercenary and wore a simple protective suit like Zero. However, he was more than twice the size of a big man and carried a heavy machine gun on his back.

In Zero's mind, he quickly found the information that matched this heavy machine gun. It was an M4, usually mounted on a helicopter. It had excellent firepower suppression and had a maximum firing speed of 6000/min. It was enough to tear any conventional creature's body apart.

Of course, the recoil of this machine gun was not something an ordinary person could bear.

Since this burly man was able to use it, one thing was certain, and that was that he had at least the strength enhancement ability of a third step.

Otherwise, this person wouldn't be able to use this big guy.

The other man who stood beside this burly man was much skinnier.

He wore a windbreaker and carried no weapons.

But standing next to him, you could feel the chill.

It was not a touch of killing intent or any other breath, but a real cold.

If he wasn't wrong, Zero thought to himself, this person must be an ability user in the Elemental Domain.

As for the last woman, she was of Asian descent, like Zero.

Her long black hair was tied up high in the air. She did not have a pretty face, but she had a voluptuous figure.

The black tights outline the curvature of the body, and the lightweight composite armor on the shoulders, chest, and calves provides some protection.

The sword hanging on his back reminded him of a Blade Master.

He did not carry the power of a heavy machine-gun like the burly man, nor did he emit the aura of an elemental domain like the thin man.

Lingcun could not feel any aura from this woman, but this did not mean that she was a weakling. On the contrary, she made Lingcun feel that she was in danger.

In the wilderness, silent snakes are more difficult to deal with than fierce bears.

"Come, let me introduce you."

This is Zero, with a mercenary license from the Parkland plutocrat. "

After entering the office at zero, Sean stood up and introduced everyone.

Under Sean's introduction, Zero also got to know the other three.

The man with the heavy machine gun was called Tyrannosaurus rex. Of course, this was not a name, but a code name.

And just as Zero had expected, he had the ability to enhance his strength at the third step, while the others were only at the second step of defense and heavy weapons.

The thin man's name was Lav, a Russian. He had only one ability, but he was a rank 3 Water Elementalist.

They were both of the third rank, but the power of the Elemental Domain was far greater than that of the Fighting Domain.

Thus, even though Raffle's ability was not the more destructive fire or thunder element, no one dared to underestimate him.

As for the woman with the katana, her name was Su, and she was Chinese.

Her abilities were equal, and she was at the second rank Strength and Agility Proficiency, but her Cold Weapon Specialization had reached the fifth rank.

From what I know, weapons proficiency may be the most common ability in the entire domain, but once one reaches the fifth step or above, no matter what kind of weapons proficiency it is, they can be called a master.

It could be imagined that this woman must have extraordinary skill with the sword.

Compared to them, they only had the strength and defense of a First Order Warrior, and a Second Order Agility Warrior.

Furthermore, Zero's right eye's range of vision is an auxiliary ability, and its ability to increase battle prowess is limited.

Furthermore, Zero had deliberately concealed this ability. Therefore, when Sean reported his stats, Zero could easily get Tyrannosaurus and Lafite to look at him with disdain.

As for Sakura, she did not show any expression from the beginning to the end.

Sean introduced the mission to the four of them.

The goal of the promotion was a state university in Kaddamb, one of the best outposts in the Ramté expansion plan.

Now, however, the university is occupied by a horde of monsters called rock spiders.

This mutated beast had a rock-like outer shell. Other than having a rock-like defense, it could also be used as a concealment tool.

The biggest problem was that rock spiders were usually swarmed, and the monster's ability to reproduce was extremely fast, making it one of the monsters that was difficult to completely exterminate.

And every spring, in the breeding season, the rock spiders would be in a state of extreme euphoria.

At this point, their danger level would skyrocket.

Even though they were only level 2 dangerous monsters, once they took action, there would be thousands of them. However, when faced with such a scene, those with less courage would be scared to death.

During the spring breeding season, to ensure enough food, rock spiders went out in droves to hunt.

Their ideal hunting ground, of course, was Remutt, who had a population of five thousand.

It wasn't that Remutt didn't want to exterminate these monsters, but neither the soldiers nor the firepower was up to the task. With Remutt's current strength, he could only protect himself to a limited extent during the breeding season.

But this time, Remutt made up his mind to expand.

If circumstances permitted it, they would put this group of monsters in one place.

But the problem is that the state university has been damaged.

Collapsing schoolhouses and broken subterranean passages made it a complex maze.

Unless Mr Remt has a private space satellite, he will be able to scout the university carefully.

Otherwise, he could only send mercenaries like Zero to scout the place so that he could know where the spider's nest was. Only then would he be able to use his limited forces to attack it.

The first and initial mission of the advancement mission was to scout the entire university to find the Rock Spider's nest.

A further step is to map the university in detail, including an overview of the topography and distribution of the monsters.

As for the level three mission, it was to bring back the live specimens of the Rock Spider, which would help the Ramtter biologists find the monster's weaknesses.

The final task was to wipe out the spiders. Of course, Sean didn't expect the mercenaries to be able to do what even Remutt couldn't.

Therefore, the so-called ultimate mission, its decoration meaning is far more than the actual.

After listening to Sean's summary, Russian Ralph said, "I think three of them are enough. There's no need to add one more.

"Trash."

Zero remained unmoved and said blandly, "I don't want to move together with you, you weaklings who can catch your breath. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."

Elemental domain espers focused more on the strength of their spiritual force than on the strength of their physical abilities.

But no man wanted to be called a weakling, so the air around him grew colder.

As he left the office alone, Ralph's eyes were filled with the words "I'm going to kill you".
