Chapter 194:104. Iron Thorn Shield_3

“You must be wondering if having a stranger like you involved in this task might have a negative impact, like maybe you’d bring enemies along with you, or you’re a spy from a rival sect. If you have such suspicions, I can only say you’re overthinking. I don’t think someone who’d step out and kill scavengers at gunpoint would be a member of any sect.”

Noland Lee pocketed the business card and gave a slight nod:

“Alright, Kent. I have no objections; I’ll start with this security mission… If Iron Thorn Shield can really provide me with a flawless identity card, then working for them to save up a hundred thousand doesn’t sound bad.”

“Great, it’s settled then.” Kent grinned:

“After this mission is completed, you’ll receive your remuneration as usual, but as you know, the remuneration during the probation period may be less. The exact amount will be confirmed once the mission is over… Do you have any questions?

“No, none.” Noland Lee shook his head, expressing no objections to Kent’s arrangements.

“Glad to hear that.” Kent turned around, urging his team to speed up their work:

“Move faster, guys. We can’t afford to waste too much time here.”

“Yes, boss.”

“Understood, boss.”

Kent’s subordinates replied in unison to his call, and the campsite suddenly became bustling.

Noland Lee observed the scene and his impression of the Iron Thorn Shield improved.

Compared to the gang members who bullied the weak and wantonly killed, Noland Lee preferred security firms like Iron Thorn Shield.

Before fully getting acquainted with the Fission Wilderness, staying with the Iron Thorn Shield Security Firm might be a good option.

When his knowledge and strength are enough to support him becoming independent, he can consider leaving then.

He had numerous spells at his disposal, so as long as he wished, he would surely replace a way to leave.

Noland Lee secretly nodded to himself, feeling confident that joining Iron Thorn Shield temporarily was the right choice.

About five minutes later, all the corpses and belongings in the camp were taken care of.

Before leaving, Kent wrote a message for the Iron Thorn Shield patrols in the area, explaining the situation.

After that, with a wave of his hand, he gestured for his team members to board their vehicles, leaving the scavengers’ motorcycles and equipment behind for the patrol security team to deal with.

Noland Lee’s motorcycle was the one he had seized from the scavengers.

He practiced for a bit and gradually drove like a pro, following the long convoy heading northwest.

Wheels rolled over the grass, leaving two marks on the fresh green ground.

Noland Lee controlled the handlebars while looking towards the head of the convoy, his eyes falling on Kent’s back.

A strange light flashed through his eyes, which were hidden behind sunglasses.

Strange, very strange.

Kent looked like an ordinary person, with no extra limbs, and no glowing eyes or hair, so why was his energy consumption for deconstruction so high?

10,000 energy points—ten times the consumption of deconstructing an Imperial Lieutenant.

Was Kent a powerful extraordinary individual disguised as an ordinary person? Or perhaps the energy consumption in deconstructing an alchemist was higher than that of “Imperial Fist”-type techniques, just like when deconstructing wizards?

Noland Lee had only encountered one alchemist so far, so he was unsure about the key issue and for the time being attributed the cause to alchemists mastering vast theoretical knowledge.

System message: You have driven the “simple four-wheeled motorcycle” continuously for three hours, unlocking the new passive skill “Vehicle Control Study”; current level is 1.

Noland Lee glanced at the message in his mind, rubbing his numb legs as he got off the motorcycle, letting out a long sigh of relief.

After a long journey, Kent’s team finally arrived at their destination.

Noland Lee’s buttocks and thighs finally got the chance to rest.

This was a valley filled with a lush forest, bright flowers, and various lively animals.

Moreover, a clear stream flowed from the depths of the valley, gathering into a small lake near where the convoy was.

If this place was fenced off and a toll booth was set up, it would be enough to make it a tourist attraction.

Of course, this was what he would have done in the world before crossing over.

In the Golden Federation, beautiful places like this were basically held by extraordinary forces.

Noland Lee and his fellow team members inquired about the area.

The valley in front of them was called Water-fetching Valley.updᶐt℮ ᶐt ᶇewᶇoᶌeᶅ .oᶉg

The entire valley belonged to the Golden Commerce Guild.

All the mountain spring water produced here was monopolized by the Golden Commerce Guild.

Kent’s mission was to escort high-quality mountain spring water to Union City.

Don’t assume that “high-quality mountain spring water” was cheap.

If the spring water was cheap, the Golden Commerce Guild wouldn’t have hired sixty or seventy security guards to escort it.

In fact, the spring water produced here was an essential raw material for making high-grade alchemy potions in the alchemy workshops in the city.

Referring to his memories before and after crossing over, Noland Lee expected several trucks filled with water barrels to emerge from the valley. Soon, however, he discovered that he had made an incorrect assumption.

From the depths of the valley walked out an Alchemist.

He was wearing khaki overalls, a workwear top, and thick glasses on the bridge of his nose. His black hair was unkempt and slightly disheveled.

Feedback from deconstruction revealed that. like Kent. it would take 10.000 energy points to achieve a 100% deconstruction rate for this man..
