"Captain, what is the mission this time?"
Having just passed through the portal and arrived in a vast plain, Rodan eagerly asked Wang Han a question, and the others looked over curiously as well. Before this mission, Wang Han had specifically rented twenty large trucks to bring, clearly believing this mission would yield substantial rewards. For a moment, everyone couldn't help but feel anticipation.
“This is an A-level mission, so it will take some time.” Upon hearing this, Wang Han said with a smile, taking out a light orb and handing it to Rodon.
Rodon took the orb of light, examined it carefully for a while, and then announced the mission details to everyone. "The mission is to help the hobbit Baggins and his dwarf companions reach Lonely Mountain. The mission level is A, and the reward is 100,000 points."
"Captain." After announcing the mission to everyone, Radon said to Wang Han with concern, "An A-level mission, isn't that too dangerous? And this mission doesn't specify which world it is. Does the captain have any information about this world?"
The others also looked at Wang Han with concern. They had never carried out an A-level mission before, and even the B-level mission in the Spartan 300 Worlds was a first for them. They had also learned how terrifying B-level missions were. If it weren't for Wang Han's appearance, they might have been wiped out.
Before this, they had only ever carried out C-level missions and had never taken on a war mission. Even so, they had suffered casualties on several occasions, some due to carelessness and others due to unavoidable circumstances.
"Don't worry! I know this world, and I know a bit about the mission content and plot." Seeing everyone's worried eyes, Wang Han said with a smile, "Although this mission is quite dangerous, the rewards are generous, and the items in this world are also highly valuable in points."
“Captain, tell us about this world,” Rodan said. Telling everyone about the mission content, the world's background, and the plot would help them avoid danger and maximize their gains.
Upon hearing this, Wang Han nodded and began to explain the background and plot of the Hobbit world to everyone. In short, it's a world of war, a world with magic and monsters.
After hearing Wang Han's account, everyone's gazes immediately turned resentful towards him, then to the twenty large trucks he had brought. Although the armor and weapons in this world were excellent and could be exchanged for a large number of points, the danger of these missions was also the highest they had ever encountered. Especially that fire dragon Smaug, a colossal dragon, a dragon that had destroyed a dwarven kingdom.
"You guys have some faith in me!" Wang Han said with a wry smile, looking at everyone's eyes. "Although this world is dangerous, and following the protagonist doesn't mean you won't be safe from danger, the dangers and opportunities go hand in hand with the protagonist's team. The things in Lonely Mountain alone are enough for us to make a fortune, and the danger isn't as great as you might imagine. Otherwise, how could the protagonist's team have safely reached Lonely Mountain? Besides, we've exchanged for a large number of firearms this time."
Upon hearing this, everyone's worries subsided somewhat, but they were still quite concerned. After all, this was a war-torn world filled with magic and monsters, and what they had to do was face the darkness and the fire dragon Smaug alongside the protagonist and the others.
Seeing that everyone's worried expressions had finally eased somewhat, Wang Han smiled and said, then led everyone towards Baggins' group. Half a day later, they successfully overtook Baggins and his group from the side and caught up with them.
———————————
"Captain, if we just sit here and wait, will they come to contact us? They'll be very wary of the orcs chasing them, and they probably won't trust us easily." On a grassy field full of boulders, everyone sat on a secluded slope, eating dried meat bread. One of them couldn't help but ask Wang Han.
Everyone else was looking at Wang Han. Although some of them had already guessed, who knew if they had guessed what Wang Han was thinking!
“Indeed.” Upon hearing this, Wang Han nodded with a smile and said, “However, what if they were being chased by orcs, and we happened to rescue them? We’ll wait here, and they’ll come over. Although they still won’t easily trust us, at least they’ll make use of our fighting force.”
Upon hearing this, everyone showed expressions of sudden realization, and those who had guessed Wang Han's thoughts all had expressions of knowing full well.
"Captain, how do you know where they are now, or how far the plot has progressed?" one of the team members asked.
“Because we’re here, they must be nearby,” Wang Han said with a smile. “And I’m very familiar with the plot of this world.”
Upon hearing this, the team member who asked the question looked enlightened; it turned out that the captain had made the judgment based on the environment.
"Alright, we shouldn't be discussing the plot anymore. Everyone, remember your roles. We're a mercenary group only in it for the money, and we hate orcs because they're poor and untrustworthy," Wang Han interrupted, speaking loudly. The main characters' party would be arriving soon.
"Yes!" Upon hearing Wang Han's words, everyone shouted loudly, like a group of ferocious mercenaries who had been licking blood off their blades.
————Half a day's dividing line————
"Woo woof...!" As everyone rested and waited, the howling of a pack of wolves, sounding like wolves and dogs, came from the hillside behind the grassland.
"Captain, it's wolf howling! Looks like the orcs are catching up with them!" Rodon said to Wang Han with a smile upon hearing the wolf howling. After Wang Han explained the general plot to them, they knew that the main characters would be chased by orc cavalry riding wolves.
