Chapter 78

78 ‘Pirate captain’ Benjamin

“Let’s not talk about those annoying things. Brother Lin, do you have time these days?” Benjamin waved his hand and leaned closer to link, asking mysteriously.

“What is it?”

brother Lin, ” Benjamin said excitedly, ” have you heard about the haunted howling heights in the weeping Valley? ”

Hearing the name “howl Castle,” link nodded emotionlessly. ” i did hear about it from the bounty hunters when i was at the underground black market, but i don’t know the details. ”

“It’s okay, brother Lin. It’s okay if you don’t know. I’ll tell you about it now.”

Benjamin took another sip of tea and wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve. His bold and straightforward action made him look like a gangster. He was completely different from the image of the nobles in the Uptown of the sand capital who paid attention to quality and etiquette.

“this rumor has only spread recently. It was said that the castle had been abandoned for too long, and some unclean ghosts had occupied it. Some time ago, there were bounty hunters who stayed there, but something strange happened that night. Five people went in, but only three people escaped. The other two’s things were there, but they disappeared.”

“It’s also possible that the five of them had an argument and made up a story to lie to avoid responsibility,” link said with a smile.

Benjamin’s face was serious as he continued, ” “i thought so at first, thinking that it was an exception. However, similar news came in the next few days. The castle used to be an important stop for travelling between the Gobi Desert and the sand City, but since this matter became more and more serious, no one dared to stay in the castle for the night anymore.”

“and it’s normal during the day. all the weird things happen at night!”

Benjamin added, to increase the credibility of his words.

Link’s head tilted to the side as he looked at Benjamin’s expectant eyes. He suddenly had a bad feeling.

“so, brother lin, if you have time, you, me, brother li, we can form a team and explore wind howl castle!”

[ you have triggered the e-Level Mission [ exploration of the howling heights ]. Accept/decline ]

[ mission hint: benjamin invites you to join the castle exploration team to investigate the recent bizarre events in whistle castle. ]

[ mission reward: 5000 experience points, 100 favorability points with Benjamin ]

“wind howl castle? I’d like to go and have a look too. I’ll contact you another day when I’m done.” Lin Ke waved his phone as he spoke, indicating that he had saved his number.

Link didn’t agree to the deal just for the 5000 experience points.

It was mainly because he had been in the sand City for a while, so he should go back to howling Castle to check on the progress of the construction of the Army ants. He also wanted to replenish some materials for the silver army ants.

The silver army ants he’d brought out earlier had all been combined into stronger formation wall ants.

After the reproduction of the Silver Queen ant during this period of time, the number of marching ants must have increased by a lot. He would go to ‘stock up’ and take a look.

benjamin’s face was full of doubt. ” brother lin, as a gang leader, all you have to do is drink coffee and read the newspaper every day, and then order your men to do things. i’ve seen those gang leaders on tv, aren’t they all like this? ”

“The kind you’re talking about is the boss of a big gang,” link said, chuckling.

my Jack gang only has a small piece of land. It’s hard to even make a living. How can I, as the boss, just leave it be? ”

“have you heard of the beauty contest for rare animals organized by the shudu entertainment news?” link asked.

Benjamin’s eyes brightened, it was finally a topic he was familiar with, ” “I’m very familiar with this competition! You don’t know that the Uptown’s rich ladies hold this kind of boring competition every year. every year, my mom will drag me to participate in it, and it’s always the same. there’s nothing new and boring, and the awards are basically decided internally by yingluo ”

After Benjamin finished, he looked at link and opened his mouth slightly, ” “Brother Lin, you’re not saying that you want to participate in this competition, are you?”

Link nodded.

This time, it was Benjamin’s turn to be conflicted.

“Brother Lin, it’s mainly because of the pets you have. Other than the mouse in your hand, the others don’t match up to being rare and cute at all,”

“Moreover, this competition is very deep. The awards are never based on the rarity of the animals, but on which lady’s family is more popular this year. If you participate, you’ll definitely return in defeat. I advise you not to have too much hope.”

Link’s face was emotionless. He said indifferently,”It’s fine. I’ve heard about the inner workings of the selection, but I still believe that my pet can get a good ranking.”

Seeing that link had made up his mind, Benjamin thought for a moment and slapped his thigh. “?! My family is invited every year anyway. I’ve always been a bystander. If brother Lin doesn’t mind, you can use my family’s name to participate. It’s hard to say if we can get into the top three, but the top five is definitely not a problem!”

benjamin shook his phone. ” contact me if you need anything. brother lin, you saved my life. you don’t have to be polite! ”

Benjamin looked at the time and stood up, ” “Then I won’t disturb you any longer. The main purpose of coming here today is to recognize the place and invite brother Lin to go on an adventure. Since I’ve achieved my goal, I should go.”

After that, Benjamin put his hand to his mouth and explained in a low voice, ” “Jenny gets off work at five o ‘clock. I have to pick her up.”

the two of them walked out of the office and into the courtyard.

Benjamin couldn’t help but look at the Hound again. This time, the judging and threatening look in the Hound’s eyes disappeared, giving Benjamin the impression that this Hound was an old friend of his that he had raised for many years.

“Brother Lin, your hunting dog is really smart. The first time I saw you, you were especially vigilant and didn’t call out to me. Now that you’ve seen that we’re on good terms, even your hostility towards me has disappeared, and there’s even a sense of intimacy.”

Benjamin walked around the Hound and asked link, ” “Brother Lin, I’m usually not interested in animals, but after seeing your Hound, I actually have the urge to raise a dog. Can you lend me your Hound for a few days?”

“I don’t really care,” said link, shrugging.”Just see if the Hound will follow you.”

Benjamin’s face was filled with joy. Just as he was about to get close to the hellhound, the hellhound suddenly extended its sharp teeth, its expression extremely ferocious, ” Woof! Woof! Woof!

Benjamin was so scared that he stumbled backward and almost fell on his butt. Link quickly caught him from behind.

“It seems that it doesn’t want to go with you.”

Benjamin was so scared that his face turned pale. He waved his hands and said, ” “Forget it, I won’t raise it!”

When Fu saw Li Zijun leaning against the wall, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly. She asked curiously, ” Speaking of which, isn’t Benjamin your young master? why are you still smiling when you see him in shock? ”

” my job is to protect the young master’s safety. as long as his life is not threatened, i will not interfere with his life. ” Li Zijun adjusted her sunglasses. “If a person doesn’t even have the right to be happy, angry, sad, or happy, then it’s not protection, but house arrest.”

Ah Fu didn’t seem to understand and simply shook his head.

His joy in life was to help and serve his boss.

Benjamin took another look at his watch, waved goodbye, and ran off in a hurry: ” “There doesn’t seem to be enough time. Brother Lin, I’ll be leaving first!”

Li Zijun glanced at link again and nodded slightly. She raised her hand and retreated with the Special Forces.

The roar of the engines of armored vehicles, military vehicles, and Jeeps started at the same time, and the entire Street could hear it.

With thick smoke, the flood of steel left the slums and headed for the Golden Bridge.

back in his office, link laughed to himself, feeling a little emotional.

Benjamin must be the captain of a pirate ship. He’s full of treasure armors.

He had provided link with a lot of inside information and a mission.

Link glanced at the [ missions ] section of the system. He had accumulated quite a number of missions.

1. [ Grade C-prey targeted by the wasteland ]

2. [ Grade E-Moroes ‘pocket watch ]

3. [ Grade A-mandala’s revenge ]

4. [ job mission-Wufu ]

5. [ Grade S-bug heart ]

6. [ C-rank-gold bounty ]

7. [ D-rank-military practice ]

8. [ level e-exploration of the howling Castle ]

Link returned to his office. He took out a piece of paper and started thinking.

as link had never participated in the closed beta, his memory of the closed beta only existed in the descriptions on the forums.

In addition, it had been too long, and a lot of the content was already unclear.

Link wrote down the words ‘Shatu’ on the white paper.

The closed beta test would only last for five days, so he definitely couldn’t go to Dragon City or Faye.

Link had some vague memories of the closed beta players in the sand City.

in the forums of his previous life, link remembered someone saying that during the closed beta, a player had joined a guild by chance. he had done well during the five-day closed beta testing and was highly regarded by the guild leader.

moreover, link had seen a rumor on the forum.

One of the top ten pugilist pugilists,’drifting Rou of the wind’, was the first to arrive in Sand City during the closed beta. After the open beta started, he moved to Dragon City to develop himself, for unknown reasons.

There was also a well-known nouveau riche player,’liangren thief’, who revealed his various experiences in Shandu during the closed beta testing in an interview.

There might have been some other players, but it had been too long and link couldn’t remember clearly. Besides, these people didn’t make a name for themselves later on and disappeared.

Of course, the most important thing was that the game was too popular during the open beta period. There were tens of millions of players and millions of posts on the forum every day. The amount of information was shocking, and everyone spent their energy exploring the game world.

No one cared about the news of the closed beta testing that had fallen behind a few months ago.
