Chapter 440 Going to the Hive
"Luke-Hobbs, you can call me Luke." Hobbs looked at David curiously. In fact, when he was chatting with that man, he noticed these people beside him.
Judging from his rich adventure experience, these people are all good adventurers. The commission I received this time needs teammates. These people are good choices.
"David, Laura, and Steve." After introducing Hobbs to his companions, David shook hands with Hobbs, and then looked at the man next to him.
At this point, the man remembered that he had talked to Hobbs for a long time, and he hadn't even introduced his name: "Look at me, I'm so rude, my name is Kane."
Kane looked at David and the others. Although he didn't know the young adventurers like David, he was still very enthusiastic, and invited them to a good tavern to eat and talk.
As the employer who issued the task, Kane was very generous. He specially chose a relatively high-end restaurant and ordered a table of sumptuous food.
While entertaining Hobbs and David, he told some details of the entrusted task by the way.
According to Kane, he invested in the establishment of a laboratory in Raccoon Town because Raccoon Town has a suitable environment. The city is quite developed in medicine, magic, and institutions, and there are a large number of related practitioners in the town.
In comparison, there are not so many professionals here in the Kingdom of Arendelle. If he builds a laboratory here, he will not even be able to recruit staff.
In addition, these special medicines are said to be sold to the Arendelle royal family. It is said that Elsa, the heir to the kingdom, suffered from a strange disease since she was a child and had to rely on special medicines for treatment.
Hobbs is not interested in these situations, he just wants to know what troubles may be encountered in this mission? He can recruit suitable helpers based on the information provided by his employer.
While eating, he didn't forget to talk to David to find out the general situation of these new teammates, especially their occupations?
"Warrior, Hunter, Chanting...Priest."
David's introduction was very concise. He wanted to continue pretending to be a bard, but was secretly poked by Laura, so he had to change his name to a priest.
Hearing that David was a pastor, Hobbs was very happy.
I learned from Sheriff Shane David before that although there are many priests who are willing to move around the continent, very few are willing to be adventurers.
Priests appear everywhere for self-cultivation, sharpening, or spreading beliefs. Even if they occasionally participate in adventurous actions, they mostly participate temporarily, and they will go back to do their own things when things are over.
David in front of him didn't look like this kind of pastor. He wondered if David was a real pastor?
Although he was puzzled in his heart, Hobbs did not question David's ability in a hurry. Anyway, there was still some time before departure, so he could find a few more teammates.
Anyway, according to Kane’s description, this mission should encounter a lot of trouble, so it’s safer to find a few more people.
Asked about some details again, and figured out his mission besides checking if something went wrong in the laboratory? It is also responsible for bringing the core of the arcane mechanism inside the laboratory back to Arendelle.
Hobbs realized that in addition to finding a few reliable teammates, he also had to find a mechanism engineer.
"I will help you contact the mechanism engineer, and I will prepare horses for a few of you."
"This is the best way, and it saves me a lot of trouble." Hobbs put the last bite of meat into his mouth, a table full of food, most of which went into his stomach alone.
From this amazing appetite, we can know that he is definitely not an ordinary person.
"I'm going to recruit teammates, David, Laura, Steve, see you at dinner."
"good luck!"
David could tell from Hobbs' words that the other party didn't want him to wait for someone to join him in recruiting teammates. Hobbs should be in order to ensure his dominance in the team.
After explaining the details, Kane left a part of the deposit, booked rooms for several people in this hotel, and left after making an appointment with Hobbs to see you tomorrow.
In the blink of an eye, only David, Laura and Steve were left at the dinner table.
"Although this person is not on the list, he should be a candidate." Laura looked at the list in David's hand, and there was no Luke Hobbs' name on it. This should be one of the candidates that the other guides are responsible for. .
"Steve can see such an obvious thing."
Steve quietly poured himself a glass of wine, as if he didn't hear anything, and took small sips of the fermented grape juice in his hand.
"This should be the plot of Resident Evil, right?" Laura looked at the clean plate on the table, and was not interested in ordering anything else: "Isn't this just a chance to meet Alice?"
"It should be!" David had been holding a leg of lamb in his hand, and when he found that it was cold, he released the holy fire and warmed it up a little, and took a big bite: "This Hobbs may have done it on purpose. Was it brought here for the sake of a direct conflict between the candidates?"
According to the current situation, he, Laura and Steve are equivalent to replacing the team of mercenaries in the original plot.
Considering his status as a priest, wouldn't he become a medical soldier in the squad?
This status is not very auspicious!
I wonder if there is a laser channel in this hive laboratory? If there are a bunch of weird people on the train to the underground laboratory, is there still some bonus points and side plots to be earned?
When David's thoughts were getting more and more outrageous, Steve suddenly put down his wine glass and glanced in the direction of the castle through the open window next to him.
"What's wrong?"
"I seem to hear the call from the spirit of the elements."
Steve was originally just a soldier. After sleeping for seventy years, many things are unclear.
Because of David and Winter City, he took a completely different path and became the Supreme Mage.
Steve, who opened the Time Gem, knows many things well: How will this matter develop? How many changes will this development lead to and so on and so on.
Although the future of his world became fragmented because of David's existence, it still brought him a lot of 'help'.
But all of this has become a thing of the past after he resigned as the supreme mage. Steve's own magic level is far from reaching the level of casually peeking at the timeline. The 'knowledge side', so now he can't think of 'plot' for the first time.
"Before, you were too busy and didn't have time. Now that you're free, it's time to add some necessary knowledge, right?" David knew what was going on when he heard what Steve said, but Steve couldn't think of it. It is obvious that too few movies have been watched: "It is not difficult to get these resources in your world."
"..." Steve smiled awkwardly, he really needed to study hard.
Listening to David's introduction about the setting and plot of Elsa and the Kingdom of Arendelle, Steve's expression became a little strange: "Sounds like a fairy tale?"
"Animation of Mickey Mouse's house."
"I see…"
Steve then asked about the plot of Resident Evil. David thought it was troublesome to talk about it, so he went back to the room and played the movie version of Resident Evil again with a holographic image.
After watching the first part, I found that it was still early for dinner, and Hobbs didn't come back, so I started playing the second and third parts directly...
During dinner, Hobbs came back with two newly recruited teammates.
Several people introduced their names and occupations to each other. Even if they knew each other, David carefully looked at the two wanderers named Jack and the soldier named John, and confirmed that these two were the same as anyone in his memory. Not on the number, it is estimated that these two people are purely secondary background boards, not candidates.
It was Kaplan, the mechanism engineer brought by Kane the next day, which surprised David a little: Isn't this the computer expert in the original movie?
In this case, this man named Kane, who has the same appearance as the villain supervisor in the second part of Resident Evil, is he a guide?
Sakan people? Or is it the direct subordinate of the Sakan people in this continent?
After thinking about it for a few seconds, David was too lazy to waste energy on this aspect. What he has to do now is to **** the "chance and luck", and the number of Sakan people on the Yaneira Road is not that important.
Riding on the top horse that Kane prepared for everyone, after preparing dry food, dried meat, and clean water, the group rode straight to Raccoon Town.
The leader, Luke Hobbs, has a huge body, so he is riding a tall war horse with a special pedigree. Even if this tall and strong war horse carries a super strong man close to two meters, there are still a lot of Weapons and supplies can still run like flying, easily leaving the other horses behind.
If Hobbs hadn't controlled the speed of the horse, maybe he could have reached Raccoon Town faster by himself.
Even so, a temporary team of seven people arrived at the destination before the evening of the next day: the outskirts of Raccoon Town.
"According to the information given by Kane, the entrance to the laboratory code-named Beehive is in the manor not far ahead." After Hobbs and the others **** the horses, they made the final deployment before the operation: " I just sent a signal using the magic item Kane gave, but there was no response in the manor, so it can basically be concluded that something happened in the laboratory."
The next few people will enter the laboratory to take out the potion and mechanism core that Kane wants—if they are still there, there is a high probability of a battle with one or even several unknown forces during this process.
"One last time, no one quits, right?" Seeing that everyone was not about to quit, Hobbs nodded: "Let's go!"
While speaking, he took out his heavy hammer and double-edged battle axe, and walked towards the dark manor with the weapons in both hands.
In the next second, arrows rain down!
John, Jack, Pawn!
