At present, the other port patrol guards didn’t give much attention to this hill. Nevertheless, once Coutts was late in returning, they would immediately send people to investigate.
Therefore, Chris was exceedingly clear. Based on his estimation of reigning power in Turtuga port, regardless if he had prepared beforehand to receive any aggressor or continue hiding, they would turn the place upside down to find him. Furthermore, his condition was disadvantageous, and even if he wasn’t hurt, there would still be a high probability of him being captured. Since it wasn’t easy for him to meet such a crude yet righteous guy, how could he just let him go?
Sheyan heard him shouting and turned around to demand.

What else do you want?

Chris with tears in his eyes replied.
Respected Yan, look at my condition, how could I possibly escape? If you’re leaving me here to wait for my death, you shouldn’t have rescued me previously.

Sheyan shrugged his shoulders saying.

From your words, you probably have a party right? Can’t your comrades save you?

Shaking his head, Chris argued.

They have probably already set sail, Boss Nick’s boat can submerge under water and not be discovered. Hais…… if it was the previous day, they would definitely rescue me, however, I can’t even do much with my current state. They will surely abandon me.

Sheyan curled his lips and said.

I’ve already saved you once haven’t I? More importantly, saving you is not my primary motive. if I hadn’t confirmed that I could take down that guard, I would never have acted. Currently, the entire Turtuga port is on a huge manhunt, If I help you then wouldn’t it be equivalent to stepping myself on the foot? Please give me a reason to do so.

Sheyan’s speech was extremely reasonable, if he immediately agreed then Chris would probably have certain suspicions. The guy then bluntly replied.

You’re probably alone right? I can recommend you to join our party!

Sheyan felt an indistinct and fuzzy skepticism within his heart spring up, as though one more would cause it to pierce through. Thus, he purposely acted indifferent and replied.

Join your party? If your group was so reliable, would you be begging me for help?

Chris’s face turned red, still, he sincerely answered.

Mr Yan, you must understand, the strength of a party cannot be compared to a single person. In such a dangerous and strange place like the nightmare realm, a person’s strength is considered very minute. Only a party is able to give one a better chance of survival. Regarding this one time, it was an accident, if Waka did not stupidly trigger a hidden mission and increased the difficulty, then I believe, we would currently be in the present world’s Dubai on a nice yacht enjoying wine along with high grade caviar.

Sheyan merely sneered and said.

The more people, the thinner the profits. Furthermore the nightmare realm is an extremely stingy place, without exposure to huge risks, there wouldn’t be generous rewards. So many people sharing a piece of cake, how much can one person eat? My previous world experience allowed me to receive two pieces of equipment, what about your Mr Chris? Furthermore, I don’t believe that such a party would split their loots evenly! The better the loot, it would most probably go into the pockets of your Boss Nick.

Chris instantly replied.

Yes I admit what you say is true, however, if because of this you neglect the importance of a party’s strength, then you are not looking at the bigger picture! Before joining the party, my world conclusion and mission success rate or any side mission’s score would always be below 50%! The free attribute points I received would always be 1 point, potential and utility points rewards were also pathetic. However after joining the party, although the amount of loots divided were relatively lesser, the scenario exploration rate and mission success score greatly increased! With a larger force of manpower, accomplishing the mission would also be much easier, the additional utility point rewards would also raise by several folds. If I am able to return alive this time, I would be able to receive a total of 2,000 or more utility points! You tell me, is joining a party worth it?

After listening to Chris, it seemed as though a thunderbolt struck Sheyan’s mind. His shroud of skepticism and confusion was wiped clear! After completing the Terminator world, he always harbored this regret – His personal mission completion score had only been 53%!
Furthermore, eliminating those two frightening T-750 Terminator had already caused Sheyan to utilize his fullest strength. If it was someone else, he wouldn’t have done it better either! Yet this sort of performance had only earned him a 53% completion score…. It was barely a passing score! What kind of performance would then be worthy of a 100% score?
At that time, he deliberated for so long but could not come up with an explanation. However looking in perspective now, there was only one word.

Party!


This damned realm encourages forming parties, it encourages contestants to unite!


If that time I had teamed up with that dead Cazider.


If I had teamed up with the beardy when i just entered a nightmare world… forming a partnership with him…

Sheyan’s mind was buzzing with two such notions, then he very easily confirmed his decision – he could’ve accomplished much more!
But.. but! The risks I have to take would definitely increase, trusting my back with those two bastards? Then the rewards I painstakingly fought for myself would have to be split evenly with them?… In your dreams!

A doubt flashed in his heart.
If potential points and utility points are directly related and determined by the mission completion rate and score, then rewarding basic free attribute points were determined by what?

Chris, upon seeing Sheyan’s pondering state, thought that he had managed to persuade him, and continued encouraging.

Yes, a new member who wants to join would have to pay up 50% of their utility points and 50% of their potential points whenever a mission ends. But, the risks you will face will be greatly reduced, it will definitely not be greater than going solo. Furthermore, if you prove to possess great strength your scope of authority and privileges will likewise increase. For example, I no longer have to pay up any utility points, furthermore, my contributions to this mission of infiltration the castle was immense. Therefore, if i’m able to return alive, I can participate in the bonus dividends and can acquire the lowest rank member’s utility points. Yan, you possess tremendous close combat prowess, you can fill the gap left by Caldas’ death! Believe me, come on!

Sheyan hesitated a while, before lowering his head and inquiring.

How would I know what you are saying is true?

Chris hastily replied.

How could it be false! Don’t tell me you believe a single person is able to cause such an explosion in the castle? That place hides a great deal of secrets, and even contains treasures!

Sheyan stared intently at Chris.

Treasures?

Chris nodded, sincerely saying.

How about this, if you are willing to save me, apart from recommending you to enter our Triple-K party, I will also show you a high value report, this report will allow you to receive a B level difficulty hidden mission!

Sheyan refused to nod his head.
Chris gritted his teeth, and fished out a glistening yellow bullet.

You win! I’ll add on this!

Sheyan simultaneously received the item’s details.
[ Exquisite 7.62mm bullet (Condition: Extremely good) ]
[ Origin: United States of America, Ohio, Springfield Ammunitions factory ]
[ Equipment rarity: Light blue ]
[ After loading into firearm: Enable your next far range attack to increase by 30 points ]
[ Usage (requires flammable material nearby): Deducts 10 HP from user, removing blood on the user’s body, dizziness effect. ]
[ Description: I wish that our country will love us like how we love it. ]
[ Equipment battle score: 5 ]
Sheyan gazed at Chris for a short while, finally he reached out his hand and said.

Deal.

A this moment, the port’s patrol guards had concluded their manhunt. They didn’t finish it empty handed had caught someone and returned in triumph. They then roughly discovered that Coutts was missing, and had started to make preparations for people to ascend the hill to search. From afar, Sheyan could see the unfortunate brat who got caught.

What if he tells on you guys?

Chris was shocked and replied.

Don’t tell me you do not know the punishment for leaking out relevant information on the nightmare realm to world’s characters? It is the same as using your abilities from the nightmare realm in the present world, the punishments are severe. Believe me, you would never want to be on the receiving end of such punishments. Oh, shit they’ve already started advancing towards here. Yan! Never forget our agreement!

Sheyan softly replied.

Of course I won’t, let’s move. Let’s detour around the hillside, once we return to the harbor’s pier first then we’ll see.

Chris was astounded as he exclaimed.

Heavens, what are you thinking?

Sheyan asked.

Don’t tell me you didn’t get the main mission of finding a job by this afternoon?

Chris shrugged his shoulders.

Of course, however regrettably, we tried our best but only could persuade Captain Hook, a nameless person without reputation, to receive us. His damned ship could only take 10 guys! He still demanded boarding fees, therefore Captain Hook’s corpse should currently be washed out a few hundred miles out into sea.

Sheyan nodded his head and said.

My other identity is the crew member of the Bell and Mug, because I got rid of the ship’s crew head, the respected Captain Ammand announced that I replace his position.

Chris eyes were wide with amazement, finding it hard to swallow his saliva.

Ammand? That Ammand?

Sheyan calmly replied.

Yes that Ammand, one of the future seven Pirate Lords, the Pirate Lord of the Black sea, that Ammand.
