Chapter 216 One Person Is Missing

Zhao Ke led the crowd forward, not very fast. For him, the important thing was not how far he walked, but the time. As long as he walked for two hours, he could go back, so he was not in a hurry to walk too fast.

Among the people who followed Zhao Ke, most people had no opinion on this, but some complained that the speed was too slow.

"Should I listen to you or me?" Zhao Ke said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate? Don't forget that you only pay the most basic fees, not including special service fees."

Special service?

Su Yu was slightly stunned, feeling that he had thought something wrong.

"What special service?" Su Yu asked Wen Dong next to him.

"It's the kind with specified requirements." Wen Dong said: "Most people enter the high-level alien space just to broaden their horizons, but some people come to do tasks or hunt certain specified monsters. Some people do not have the strength to complete the task or hunt monsters, but they have to do so. In this case, they will also hire high-level warriors to help them. Of course, the price is much higher than the ordinary ones."

"So that's it." Su Yu suddenly realized.

Now they hired Zhao Ke, which was equivalent to finding a tour guide. Zhao Ke's main task was to take everyone around.

But if it was a special service, then Zhao Ke would be hired as a thug.

One was a thug and the other was a tour guide. Their identities were different, so the price was naturally different.

Su Yu could fully understand this. High-level warriors were not so easy to hire, especially if they had to hire them as thugs. It was normal for the price to be higher.

Obviously, the eight people led by Zhao Ke were all ordinary hires. He naturally had a lot of confidence in his rebuttal. Even if others were dissatisfied, they had no choice.

Unless they paid more!

Zhao Ke glanced at everyone and turned his head away. Obviously, no one was willing to pay more.

However, Su Yu saw that Wen Dong seemed to be hesitant, so he asked, "Why, do you want to pay more?"

"Yes." After hesitating for a while, Wen Dong nodded and said, "I'm here to seek a breakthrough. If I walk around like this, I won't get anything."

Wen Dong just told Su Yu the purpose of his coming here. He is not here for fun, but he may not have thought that Zhao Ke would deliberately slow down his pace and take a relatively safe path. In this way, his idea of ​​seeking a breakthrough naturally cannot be realized. He was thinking that he could encounter some high-level monsters before, so he could save money. Unexpectedly, Zhao Ke used his familiarity with the environment here to deliberately avoid those more dangerous places. In addition, there were many other warriors around. As a result, they walked for half an hour and didn't encounter a high-level monster.

This result naturally did not satisfy Wen Dong, so he was hesitating whether to add some money and let Zhao Ke take him to a dangerous place.

"Don't worry." Su Yu suddenly grabbed Wen Dong who was about to discuss with Zhao Ke.

"What's wrong?" Wen Dong looked at Su Yu in confusion.

Su Yu did not explain too much, saying, "Let's talk about it later."

Wen Dong hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Anyway, he had only been in for half an hour and still had time, so he was very curious about why Su Yu did this.

"Why is there one less person?"

About ten minutes later, Zhao Ke's voice suddenly came, with annoyance and confusion in his voice.

You just found out!

Su Yu complained helplessly in his heart.

In fact, the missing person in the team had left the team ten minutes ago. Zhao Ke didn't care about the people in the team, so he didn't find out until now.

Su Yu had already found out ten minutes ago, but at the beginning, his attention was not on the people in the team. Therefore, Su Yu didn't notice when that person left the team. The reason why he held Wen Dong was because he had already found out that there was one less person in the team at that time. It was obviously not a good time for Wen Dong to find Zhao Ke at this time, and it was a waste of time.

In Su Yu's opinion, although Zhao Ke said that he could not be blamed if he died because he did not listen to orders, Wen Dong and others had paid money after all, so Zhao Ke had the responsibility to protect everyone's safety. Now that there was one person missing in the team, Zhao Ke must and should go find him. In this way, Wen Dong would obviously waste money if he went to Zhao Ke to pay more money to change the route. Zhao Ke would definitely look for the person who left the team first. It would be better to wait for someone to find the person before looking for Zhao Ke.

However, to Su Yu's surprise, Zhao Ke's first reaction after knowing that there was one person missing in the team was not worry, but anger.

"I have said many times that you must listen to my command after you come in. Now someone has left the team without permission, so his life or death is none of my business." Zhao Ke said to everyone: "Any of you who want to leave the team can leave now. Once you leave the team, you have nothing to do with me, and the money cannot be returned to you."

Su Yu looked at Zhao Ke and was slightly surprised.

This Zhao Ke did not even have the thought of looking for someone. After discovering that someone had left the team, he immediately cut off his relationship with him.

However, after being surprised, Su Yu could understand Zhao Ke's behavior. After all, he still had seven people with him. If he went to find the one who left the team without permission, it would be irresponsible to the remaining seven people. Moreover, Zhao Ke had said before that if he didn't obey orders, his life or death would have nothing to do with him, so it was not irresponsible.

However, although he could understand it, Zhao Ke's determination was still a little beyond Su Yu's expectations.

This is a high-level space. In the team, Zhao Ke has the highest rank. The one who left is obviously just a low-level warrior. Once he leaves Zhao Ke's protection, he is likely to die here. Zhao Ke is completely indifferent to this. Su Yu can figure it out, but the others in the team may not be able to figure it out.

"Don't you want to find him? It's very dangerous here." Someone couldn't help asking.

"You know the danger, doesn't he know the danger?" Zhao Ke said unhappily: "I have already said that you must follow the command after entering. If you run around and don't follow the command, I have nothing to do with your life or death."

After speaking, Zhao Ke turned around and continued to move forward without any hesitation.

The rest of the people looked at each other, and finally everyone said nothing and followed Zhao Ke and continued to walk.

In dangerous situations, few people are willing to take risks for a stranger. This is an advanced alien space, a very dangerous place for them. It is safer with Zhao Ke accompanying them. What's more, they have all paid money, so naturally they have their own purposes. Not everyone can accept wasting time for a stranger.
