Although Lin Yuan was filled with doubts, he did not ask any questions. Instead, he simply returned a friendly message according to the rules and passed by the flying vehicle.
On the other hand, Thomas exclaimed in surprise, "The Viper Mercenary Corps? It's actually them! Captain, something unusual must be happening on this Earth; otherwise, the Viper Mercenary Corps wouldn't have come here. I’m sure of it! The scale of the Viper Mercenary Corps is not at all inferior to that of the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps. Moreover, there are rumors that a higher-level organization, the Mechanical Knights Order, is backing them. Additionally, the Viper Mercenary Corps is known for their high standards, precision, and responsibility in the industry. Any mission they take on usually achieves an S-Class rating. They are considered exemplary within the Mercenary Association. Every time they accept a Mercenary Mission, they reap considerable rewards. I even thought about applying to join them once, but unfortunately, I didn’t meet the qualifications."
"Is that so?"
Lin Yuan was somewhat surprised. He hadn’t expected the so-called Viper Mercenary Corps to have such a reputation. After all, even when encountering the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps, Thomas had not shown such fanatical admiration.
"Thomas, what kind of mission do you think would attract the Viper Mercenary Corps? Since they have such a big name, they must have specific criteria when accepting missions."
"Ha! That's a tough one. A mercenary naturally takes money to do work for others. Given the reputation of the Viper Mercenary Corps, they wouldn’t take on ordinary missions; only high-difficulty and high-reward tasks would catch their eye. However, I can’t think of anything on this barren planet—especially on Earth—that would draw them in. But figuring it out isn’t too hard. Captain, let’s go to their temporary camp and ask. Besides, they must have a Trading Platform with them; we can just spend some Mechanical Coins to get supplies without having to search for food ourselves." Thomas said confidently.
"Will they tell us their mission objectives?"
"Hehe, Captain, you might not know this: if it were the domineering Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps, we certainly wouldn’t dare approach them for inquiries. However, the Viper Mercenary Corps is different; they don’t bully other mercenaries and have a good reputation. If they encounter stranded mercenaries, they will help within their capabilities. In short, the reason why the Viper Mercenary Corps has such a great reputation isn’t just because of their strength but also due to their popularity. By the way, you might not believe this—the leader of the Viper Mercenary Corps happens to be an Earthling and a stunning beauty."
As Thomas spoke, his face displayed a rather lecherous expression. It seemed that his praise for the Viper Mercenary Corps was not without reason.
"Alright then, let’s go take a look."
Lin Yuan said lightly. Now he had even more reason to witness the Viper Mercenary Corps—Earthlings were intriguing.
With that thought in mind, Lin Yuan locked onto the previous direction and made a swift turn to accelerate away. He no longer needed to rely on the cross-navigation system he had invented; as long as he wished for it, his Auditory Radar could instantly lock onto his desired location without any deviation.
However, when he entered the coordinates, he unexpectedly discovered that the so-called temporary camp of the Viper Mercenary Corps was actually the original location of the S-15 Sub-base.
Could it be that the S-15 Sub-base had already been abandoned? If not, then the people of the Viper Mercenary Corps wouldn't have set up their temporary camp there.
But why did the Gatekeeper and those rebels abandon the S-15 Sub-base? Wasn't it something they had fought hard to acquire?
A multitude of doubts surged in Lin Yuan's mind.
A few minutes later, the massive Deep Pit where the S-15 Sub-base was located appeared clearly on Lin Yuan's Auditory Radar. It was very quiet, and he couldn't detect any operation from the Energy Source Tower. As for the 500-kilometer air defense identification zone, it was also ineffective.
At the edge of that Deep Pit, a huge interstellar patrol ship was docked. It was about sixty percent new, measuring two kilometers in length and 800 meters in width. The bridge was covered with various weaponry, and within a radius of several dozen kilometers around this patrol ship, nearly a hundred drones were patrolling. Of course, these were not high-end models like the Black Bat-9 but rather the type of launch drones equipped with the Mercenary Corps' Armored Vehicle Formation.
"Hello! This is the Viper Mercenary Corps temporary camp. Please present your identity and purpose, and stop fifty kilometers away to cooperate with our inquiries!"
At that moment, Lin Yuan received an inquiry message, while his Auditory Radar detected that at least fifty types of weapons had locked onto him, including some quite formidable Energy Weapons. It seemed that this Viper Mercenary Corps was indeed quite powerful.
Lin Yuan did not wish to engage in conflict with them, so he complied and descended to the ground, retracting his wings. "Thomas, you handle them. I've noticed that many people in this Viper Mercenary Corps are Earth Humans."
"Ha! Captain, you're right. But you mustn't underestimate them. Although they were once very weak Earth Humans, under the influence of a large number of enhancement cells and Modification Points, they can still reach a remarkable level. As far as I know, among Carbon-Based Life forms, some have achieved A1-level heights—quite impressive."
Thomas said proudly before stepping forward to negotiate with the Viper Mercenary Corps on behalf of Lin Yuan.
Soon after, a streak of light flashed in the distance, followed by a figure rushing over. In an instant, they stopped right in front of Lin Yuan, Thomas, and Fat Three with a steady presence that exuded an air of mastery.
Beneath that person was a mechanical body about two meters long, resembling a skateboard. It was clearly some sort of individual combat machine. As for the human on top, she was a girl dressed in denim, seemingly no older than seventeen or eighteen. With her hands in her pockets, she appeared quite relaxed, reminding Lin Yuan of the mischievous kids from his own youth.
However, this was no ordinary troublemaker. Lin Yuan's Auditory Radar instantly scanned the girl's attributes, revealing her impressive capabilities.
"Half-mechanical cyborg, with 60% mechanical modification and 40% cellular enhancement. Overall Enhancement Level: 9 points. Auxiliary Intellect model, Galaxy-1 type, Civic Induction Transmission Rate: 005. Profession: Swift Hunter. Equipped with: Azure Light Dagger and Swift Hunter Armor. Comprehensive strength evaluation: e6 level ordinary." (To be continued.)
