Chapter 1849: Bump into again (2)
Yang Tuo did not know who these people were, but Helsky did. They had met before. Although there had been some conflict in the black mist created by Ye Zhongming, that was an accident. Given that they shared the same enemy and were both from Earth, Aimusi had not made things difficult for him.
Now the situation was different. Helsky stood with Ye Zhongming, so these people were enemies.
The mechanical speedboat, whose origins were unknown, was extremely fast. Helsky knew at a glance that his swimming speed was clearly no match.
This meant he could no longer notify Ye Zhongming and the others.
Helsky knew he had to make a choice now.
He suddenly raised his hand, waving toward the speedboat, and shouted a few words loudly.
“Don’t say anything, just follow me.”
Just before the speedboat noticed them and sped over, Yang Tuo heard Helsky’s low whisper.
“It’s you?”
Aimusi’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
“Strange?” Helsky treaded water while looking up at this woman. “You came too, didn’t you?”
“I just didn’t expect you to have this capability, to find this place.”
Helsky smiled, but in his heart, he was already cursing Aimusi’s elders.
This woman, you really know how to kill a conversation.
“Heh, sometimes hatred can greatly increase a person’s potential. Of course, points have the same effect.”
It must be said, Helsky really knew how to talk. In this aspect, Aimusi was like an elementary school student before him.
Sure enough, whether it was Aimusi or Hawkins, upon hearing Helsky say this, their previously guarded expressions lessened considerably.
No matter what, being fellow Earthlings and sharing a common enemy indeed made them feel a sense of psychological closeness.
“Your team seems to have more people than last time.” Helsky wore a bitter smile, his eyes showing clear envy and reluctance.
Aimusi looked at him without speaking. After a while, she said, “Wait a moment.”
Then, she turned around and began murmuring with the people behind her. The voices were extremely low; even though Helsky was right next to the speedboat, he couldn’t hear very clearly. He only heard something about how to treat him.
Yang Tuo was a bit nervous.
Right now, it was just him and Helsky here, while there were six people on the opposite speedboat. Moreover, it seemed Hawkins and Aimusi were very strong. If a fight broke out, the two of them couldn’t hold out.
They couldn’t outrun them, couldn’t defeat them. All they could do in the end was wait.
For people at their level, this feeling of waiting for fate’s judgment was terrible.
“Do you know where Ye Zhongming is now?” The people on the speedboat seemed to have concluded. Aimusi came back to the bow and looked at Helsky in the water as she asked.
“Of course, he’s in this sea area. You should know too, right? Otherwise, why would you come here?” Helsky looked skeptical.
Aimusi coughed, a bit embarrassed by the question, then said, “What else do you know?”
Helsky suddenly fell silent, which made Yang Tuo nervous. He thought, Brother, you were full of drama just now, a real drama king. Why aren’t you speaking now?
“I do know some information, and it’s quite detailed, but I can’t think of why I should tell you.”
Helsky’s response made Yang Tuo break out in a cold sweat.
Brother, they have the advantage now! Talking to them like this, aren’t you afraid they’ll threaten you? Okay, I am indeed a very team-oriented person, but if they get angry, my stand isn’t that firm either!
“Angry?” Helsky shrugged. “I’m telling the truth. If I tell you, what’s in it for me? To have you help me kill Ye Zhongming? No, no, no. Although I came here seeking revenge, it’s not an absolute necessity. Between him and me… sorry, ma’am, no offense, but the hatred isn’t as great as yours.”
As he spoke, Helsky also glanced at the child’s corpse in Aimusi’s arms.
A flash of anger appeared in Aimusi’s eyes, but Hawkins patted her shoulder.
“But you still want Ye Zhongming dead, don’t you? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have come here, right?” Hawkins squatted at the bow of the speedboat. This action felt much better than that sharp and mean woman.
“Previously, you had four companions, but now only one is left, and he’s a newcomer. You also returned from over there. If I guess correctly, you found the situation untenable, right?”
Hawkins looked at Helsky with confidence as he spoke.
Helsky perfectly displayed a mix of a bit of surprise, a little embarrassment, and a little expectation instead of replying.
“Now, if we let you join our team and allow you to fulfill your wish of killing Ye Zhongming for revenge, can that exchange for your information?”
Helsky looked very seriously at Hawkins, already shouting in his heart, Brother, you really get it.
“But I don’t think you’ll let me kill Ye Zhongming with my own hands.”
Hawkins smiled. “Of course not, but you also won’t have to face Ye Zhongming directly. You’ll be safe, and it will save effort. You’ll also gain my… fifty-point friendship.”
Helsky pondered for a moment before saying, “I don’t need you to give me points, but you have to agree to one condition. Don’t worry, it definitely won’t affect your interests. Moreover, the information I have is of absolute value to you. The value my companion and I bring by joining won’t be just a bit of information as you imagine.”
“What condition?” Aimusi asked a bit impatiently.
In her opinion, they should just capture the two and interrogate them. But Hawkins said that while the other party was guarded, even if all six of them attacked, they couldn’t guarantee a successful strike in one move. Once a fight broke out, it was very likely to alert Ye Zhongming, who should be nearby.
So, harmony was the best solution. Bringing the two into the revenge team would not only increase their strength but also provide two more cannon fodder when facing Ye Zhongming.
“Anyway, it definitely won’t affect your interests. Agree to it, and I’ll tell you the information because this is actually part of the information.”
Hawkins stood up, took two steps back, stood shoulder to shoulder with Aimusi, discussed with Wade, Yaka, and the others again, and agreed to this request.
Helsky smiled. “Ye Zhongming isn’t alone now. Besides himself, he has five other helpers, plus one of his war beasts. Their overall strength is not weak. My condition is: Ye Zhongming can be yours, but that woman among the other helpers must be ours. Besides that, the two of us will also help you deal with that war beast.”
Five helpers? Hawkins and the others were startled. Didn’t that mean Ye Zhongming’s team had six people plus a war beast? Didn’t that exceed their own team’s combat power?
Fortunately, there were still these two in front of them.
“Agreed. Then, welcome to the team.”
Facing Hawkins’ outstretched hand, Helsky grabbed it, jumped onto the speedboat in one smooth motion, his face already lit up with joy.
