Chapter 170 The Weight of the Mission
Scarlett took out the whiteboard seriously and started teaching again.
Seeing this, Ashley cut two plates of fruit and placed them in the middle of the coffee table.
Brian poured nine cups of tea and placed one in front of each person.
Sit up straight.
Scarlett wrote the names of Murgaard, Harrison, and several of the Langton Street owners on the whiteboard.
By the way, their identities were explained.
Let everyone have a more intuitive understanding of what she is going to say next.
She turned around and saw some fruit on the coffee table. She picked up a piece of pear with a toothpick and put it in her mouth. She said, "I'm sure there's something wrong with Murgaard. He's not on good terms with the bosses on Langton Street, and his great-grandson Harrison also has his own selfish motives."
Seeing Scarlett's confident words, Mo Ting couldn't help but smile and asked cooperatively, "What do you mean?"
Scarlett glanced at him with a smile in her eyes. She said, "When I went to redeem you yesterday, the bosses on Lanton Street gave me a hard time in different ways. These problems are neither difficult nor easy. Logically speaking, if they have a good relationship with Murgaard, or are his superiors, they would definitely tell Murgaard about these things. At least some of them would tell him."
"For example, what I traded for Holst, how I defeated Bron, and how I rescued Tyron at Lake Niega. Looking back now, these three things are beyond my ability to accomplish, and they will definitely become topics of conversation and in-depth discussion."
"But today I met with Mergaard, and Mergaard didn't mention it at all."
"Is he too cunning to show it?" Brian speculated.
"Won't."
Scarlett shook her head. "I've communicated with him twice. The first time, I conjured a crystal ball with my bare hands and lied to him that I was a magician who could communicate with aliens. He was shocked, and then half-believed it. The second time, I handed him a lapis lazuli of average quality, and his first reaction was to put it away immediately."
"Mergaard doesn't give me the feeling that he's experienced the world. He feels more like a man who suddenly became rich and suddenly entered the prosperous world. He feels out of place and awkward."
"This does seem to be a problem. Such behavior is not in line with his status." Riley thought carefully.
"That's right."
Scarlett said, "For Murgaard to stand out from all the females, he must have experienced a lot. His personality shouldn't be like this. At least he should be calmer and not show his emotions, but he can't even do that."
"Such a personality is indeed unsuitable for a person in power."
Holst mused, "But it would make sense if it was a puppet."
"puppet?"
Chiye looked at Holst.
Holst nodded. "If someone is not convenient to show up here, we need to find a puppet to carry out his orders."
Who is inconvenient to show up? The answer is obvious.
the wanted.
The nine people looked at each other.
Mo Ting looked at the words on the whiteboard. "Sevilla said that after their companions were executed, the invaders lost all hope of survival and died together. It's easy to see that they care about their team members and will communicate any information promptly."
"Why don't you suspect that the boss is a wanted criminal and Mergaard is an outsider who is being ostracized by them?" Dzeko asked back.
Scarlett smiled and asked, "If we had psychic powers, would we still care about guns?"
Dzeko was stunned.
Riley's eyes flashed when he heard this, "It seems that the female master made a lot of attempts yesterday."
Scarlett admitted frankly: "Yes. I used the gun to ransom Holst yesterday."
Scarlett displayed the gun of the same model. "Guns in Oranrosa are strictly controlled. The latest technology is only used by the military. I bought an obsolete gun. Even so, Rachel took a liking to it and asked me to buy a few more."
The micro pistol in Scarlett's hand was a product that was eliminated fifty years ago.
It may be advanced technology in today's world, but it is not worth mentioning in the eyes of orcs.
There is no deterrent effect.
"Could she be pretending?" Ashley wondered.
Riley said, "She doesn't need to pretend with us. We have technology that's not for this era. Instead of pretending, they should be more willing to cut the roots."
"Riley is right. We have no mental strength and are like ants in their eyes. There is no need to be hypocritical." Dzeko also agreed with this.
"So our target is Murgard?" Terran looked at the tea in front of him, his half-closed eyelids suddenly lifted, and he asked.
Scarlett gave him a look, "You could say that."
"but."
Scarlett paused and said, "Actually, from yesterday until today, I've been wondering, if we had caught those twelve wanted criminals, would the tragedy on Planet B095 have been prevented?"
"Scarlett, this has already happened and cannot be changed. What appears before our eyes now is an image of the past, not the real world."
Holst denied this, speaking as gently as possible.
Scarlett nodded, her expression showing nothing amiss.
She also knew that this place was fake and nothing could be changed.
She thought for a moment and asked from a different angle, "If we capture the twelve wanted criminals, it means the city is no longer under ice and snow, and there's no threat, right?"
As soon as the question was asked, the eight people frowned at the same time.
If you think about it carefully, it seems to make sense.
Without the ice and snow blocking the city, surviving for 120 days would not be a challenge and they could get through it smoothly.
You can even arrive at the town of Moasant in advance and wait for the portal to appear.
But if this is the case, these tasks are arranged unreasonably.
Full of contradictions.
The nine of them fell into deep thought together.
"There's another possibility, the weight of the task."
Soon.
Riley speculated, "We may have fallen into a misunderstanding and viewed these tasks in a conventional way. Instead, we can look at these tasks not only in terms of their importance but also in terms of their weighting that changes the outcome."
Riley stood up, took the pen from Scarlett, and wrote down the tasks. He said, "The first task has the highest weight. Once you complete it, the rest of the tasks will disappear and a portal will appear."
"The second and third tasks have equal weight. Once completed, the fourth task will be activated."
"Looking at it from another perspective, we can see that the light curtain gives us two ways to pass the level, and we can choose either one."
After Riley said this, everyone immediately understood, and looking at these tasks again, they were indeed much clearer.
Scarlett looked at the task written by Riley and frowned slightly.
She took Riley's pen and inserted another task between the second and third tasks.
Looking for the beast husband.
Scarlett said, "There's another one, finding the beastly husband in a reasonable way. If everything is as Riley said, and the weight of the mission determines the outcome, then that explains why we can't expose this one."
Scarlett said seriously, "If a contestant hadn't gone looking for her beastly husband from the beginning, she could have hidden herself perfectly."
“There are many people with the same name.”
"The beastly husband is the root of our exposure!"
I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, so I got up to type. Are you surprised? Are you unexpected? Hahahahahahaha.
