112: Exploring the bag to get things

Price, who had been kicked hard by Laurie for no reason, stumbled and fell flat on his face.

Laurie almost laughed out loud, thinking to himself that a dog is a dog.

Even his way of falling was unique.

Facing Laurie's bullying, Price dared not speak his anger.

Even though they were both Awakened, their treatment differed greatly.

His terrifying sense of smell, while useful, was destined to remain merely an auxiliary ability.

Laurie, however, was different.

Being able to control wind as a weapon, his attacks were extremely powerful.

Only Yusuf, who could control fire, could rival his sharpness.

Furthermore, it was just a simple kick; besides leaving a shoe print on his clothes, he wasn't injured.

Price could only swallow his anger, carefully saying, "Vice-Captain Laurie, may I ask what you need?"

A dog is a dog, and it needs to be trained!

Laurie was very satisfied with Price's performance and said, "I came to find you because I have something to tell you."

"After you find the target, you must tell me immediately."

"Never tell our captain, Yusuf!"

Price looked surprised, staring at Laurie in disbelief, and said, "How could I agree to such a request?"

"The Captain has been extremely good to me; I would never do anything to betray him."

Looking at the resolute Price, Laurie sneered and said,

"You're truly laughable."

"You'd best do as I say, otherwise, just try and see if the captain who is 'extremely good to you' can protect you."

"Of course, I won't let you help for nothing."

"Of this ten million mane reward, I'll give you one million mane."

"Don't complain it's too little; after all, I'm the main combat force!"

"Without me, you wouldn't be able to achieve anything."

Hearing Laurie's words, Price almost laughed out of anger.

Their Awakened team consisted of only six people.

Even if the reward was distributed equally, he would definitely get more than one million mane.

And what was this about Laurie being the main combat force?

It was as if he couldn't find the target, Laurie wouldn't have the chance to attack it.

It was utterly shameless.

Seemingly noticing Price's disapproval, Laurie added, "One shouldn't only look at money."

"You should know that as long as this mission is completed, with my prestige, I'll be able to become the captain of this team."

"By then, if you follow me, won't you immediately rise to prominence?"

"If not, after the task is done, I'll give you two million mane as a bonus."

"I believe you'll make the most correct choice."

"This is me being kind and adding money for you, considering your good relationship with Yusuf."

Although it was only a difference of a few hundred thousand mane, it was enough to stir Price's heart.

However, Price was still a bit uneasy and said, "I can do that, but you must prove your strength."

"You should know that the target of this mission is not simple."

"Just a single hair can have such defensive power; it absolutely cannot be underestimated."

Hearing this, Laurie sneered again and said, "You're truly a coward, to be scared like this by a single hair."

"And a hair that I instantly obliterated into dust."

"Alright, I'll let you see for yourself just how big the gap between us is."

With a thought, an invisible Wind Blade instantly condensed.

Carrying a terrifying power, it instantly pierced through the large tree beside Price.

A tree dozens of centimeters thick instantly dislocated and collapsed under the Wind Blade's attack.

Laurie's attack was an instant kill.

Seeing the result of his attack, Price laughed even more proudly and said,

"Did you see that? What level of lethality is this?"

"That little tiger, which isn't even as big as my cat?"

"If it can withstand one of my attacks, then it's a victory for it."

"Dealing with it is as simple as taking something from one's pocket."

Terrifying!

Such terrifying lethality made Price both afraid and envious.

If only he had powerful offensive abilities instead of this useless auxiliary ability, how wonderful that would be.

After a moment of hesitation, Price finally agreed and said, "Alright."

"I will inform you immediately."

Just like that, Laurie and Price instantly colluded.

They betrayed the entire Awakened squad and embarked on the path to find Lin Tianwei.

Price's sense of smell was indeed an excellent auxiliary skill, at least at an advanced level.

It was more than enough to overcome Lin Tianwei's merely intermediate Stealth skill.

However, due to the passage of time, Price's speed was still a bit slow.

It wasn't until midnight that they found the cornfield where Black and White had once rolled around.

By this time, the cornfield had been tidied up by Ouro's subordinates.

It had returned to its previous clean and neat appearance.

Price looked at the cornfield, hesitated for a moment, and said, "There's more than one beast; there's also a terrifying Giant Panda."

"I think it's better to inform the Captain."

"With all six of us acting together, the chances of success will be greater."

Laurie shook his head and said, "Price, don't always worry unnecessarily."

"Follow me; you won't go wrong."

"As for a panda? What use is a creature that only knows how to act cute?"

"I remember the Ismail Institute also offered a reward of one million mane for it."

"Hurry up and catch them; that one million mane reward will be yours."

Under heavy reward, there must be brave men!

What's more, this was a full one million mane.

Price was full of energy, breathing deeply to capture the hidden scents in the air.

He led Laurie forward.

But they didn't notice that their actions were being watched by a blood-colored goshawk in the sky.

—

The closer they got to Ouro's farm, the stronger the scent left by Lin Tianwei became.

Price and Laurie visibly grew more excited.

However, their brazen behavior also attracted the attention of the nearby Black Laborer.

Someone immediately came to dissuade them, saying, "Private farm, please do not approach without permission."

Laurie, however, said indifferently, "Private farm?"

"The word 'private' isn't in my dictionary."

"Get lost quickly, or be careful; bullets don't have eyes."

As he spoke, Laurie brandished the gun in his hand.

Compared to powerful abilities, firearms were the best weapons for dealing with ordinary people.

Sure enough, those Black Laborer scattered instantly after seeing the gun in Laurie's hand.

No one dared to stand in their way anymore.

Before long, guided by Price, the two arrived at the warehouse where Lin Tianwei was hiding.

However, smelling the strong scent of blood in the air, Price's expression instantly changed drastically, and he said,

"Why don't we go back and inform the Captain?"

"The smell of blood here is very complex, indicating that the other party is definitely not someone to be trifled with."

Facing Price's warning, Laurie dismissed it with a sneer, cursing, "Coward."

"Watch how I deal with them."

"You just wait on the side and get ready to watch a good show!"

With that, Laurie ripped off the new lock Ouro had just put on.

He pushed open the door and prepared to walk directly into the warehouse.
