Chapter 338 Lin Xin's flash of inspiration went astray, completely veered off course.
boom--
Upon hearing this, Lin Xin was completely stunned.
Not only him, but also Sima Xian, Wang Yuanyuan, Chen Ying'er, and Long Haochen were all stunned on the spot.
King-rank mission?
This, this, this...
"Boss, you're not kidding us, are you?"
"This mission to explore the Dread Howling Cave is actually a King-rank Reconnaissance Mission?"
"If that's really the case, then even a Commander Rank Demon Hunt Squad wouldn't be able to accomplish this. How could a newly promoted Rank-B Demon Hunt Squad like ours be tasked with such a mission?"
Lin Xin swallowed hard.
His head was spinning so loudly that he couldn't calm down at all, and he was staring at Long Haoyu as if he were a monster.
If it weren't for the extremely solemn look on Long Haoyu's face, he would have seriously doubted whether there was something wrong with his ears.
"Brother, is this really King-rank mission?"
Long Haochen asked in a deep voice, "If this is King-rank mission, then all our efforts in coming here have been wasted?"
All eyes were on Long Haoyu Long Haoyu, waiting for his next move.
Although she was so shocked by the truth about the King-rank mission that she was speechless, she still Instinct had complete faith in Long Haoyu.
"I'm not joking. This is King-rank mission. You've all heard these mournful cries. Under normal circumstances, there's no way to get inside and investigate."
"Even if they get inside, it will be difficult to withstand the attack, so this mission definitely meets the standards of King-rank mission."
"However, you don't need to worry about what you're worried about anymore, and you don't need to worry that we've come all this way for nothing."
"According to what that Old Knight told me, we have already completed the King-rank mission by arriving here, because there will be no more dangers on the road ahead."
"We have already experienced all the real dangers on the way here. The rest of the road is clear and open. We can say that we are 100% sure we can complete this mission."
Long Haoyu spoke in a deep voice, and every word he uttered resonated with everyone.
For others, this is where the real test begins, as exploring the depths of this cave is not as easy as imagined.
Each mournful cry was enough to drive someone mad and cause them to perish completely.
But unfortunately...
Within their team, there were two individuals who could enter unscathed.
He was one of them, and his younger brother Long Haochen was one of them.
The physical constitution of the Child of Light is the key to their ability to enter safely.
With the two of them around, it would be very easy for Lin Xin and the others to stay safe in the cave.
Lin Xin and the others were all stunned, staring in disbelief at Long Haoyu's answer, hearing that the King-rank mission could now be completed with a 100% success rate.
Every single one of them was horrified on the spot.
What on earth is going on here?
When did it become so easy to complete a King-rank mission?
"Although I find it hard to believe, since it's what you said, boss, I think it's worth a try."
"But the thought that King-rank mission can be completed like this makes me feel like it's not real."
Lin Xin felt a bit numb, and his breathing became very heavy.
Sima Xian and the others weren't much better off; like Lin Xin, they all felt a sense of disillusionment.
As a newly recruited member of the Demon Hunt Squad, completing General-rank Mission will be extremely difficult.
And now...
The fact that King-rank General-rank Mission mission, was completed so easily makes the feeling of unreality very strong.
"Etc..."
"Boss, I suddenly thought of something."
"If everything is as you say, this is King-rank mission, and we are already 100% certain of completing it."
"So, could we make a move on this matter?"
Lin Xin's eyes suddenly lit up. After gradually convincing himself that he could really complete the King-rank mission, a very bold idea suddenly arose in his mind.
Long Haoyu looked at Lin Xin thoughtfully. "What kind of article are you planning to write?"
"It's not a big deal. Since we were able to complete it 100% of the time, and even mistakenly thought it was a General-rank Mission, then we can make a fuss about the fact that this mission actually belongs to King-rank mission!"
"When we get back, this incident will definitely be made public. We can portray ourselves as the ones who were tricked, since we only thought it was a General-rank Mission when we accepted it!"
"Otherwise, we definitely won't be able to get the merits that King-rank mission should have. And if we want to get the merits that King-rank mission should have, we definitely have to make all of this public."
"At that time... we might be able to secure some other benefits, which would definitely be of greater help to our entire Demon Hunt Squad."
Long Haoyu was speechless. After listening to Lin Xin finish explaining his thoughts, he immediately understood what Lin Xin was planning.
I was just thinking of taking the blame for the Mission Tower, and now it seems I can definitely take the blame, but I still have to extort some money from the Mission Tower. This feeling...
Long Haoyu felt something was off. He didn't consider himself a good person, but knowingly intercepting the mission and then sabotaging the Mission Tower seemed somewhat inappropriate.
But what Lin Xin and others said was indeed somewhat tempting.
The others were somewhat tempted by Lin Xin's words, and their eyes lit up.
Even Long Haochen, this very honest little brother, had a glint of brilliance in his eyes at this moment.
"It seems like that's definitely a viable approach. If we act all wronged, the Mission Tower will surely reward us handsomely, and we'll be able to collect all the merits from the King-rank missions."
At this moment, Wang Yuanyuan said, "Not only can we earn merit, but we can also receive commendations. It just feels a bit unfair, since the Captain knew in advance that this was King-rank mission."
Lin Xin looked at Wang Yuanyuan with exasperation. " Yuanyuan, where's your greed? Do you know how hard it is for me to be the chief manager of finances!"
"You really don't know the value of money when you're not in charge of the household! How could we be accused of being dishonest? We just want to improve the strength of the Demon Hunt Squad!"
"Furthermore, how can what we demon hunters do be called unethical? We demon hunters also need resources to develop!"
"If we don't develop our strength, how can we fight against more Demon Race?"
Long Haoyu watched Lin Xin's explanation, which was full of spittle.
For the first time ever, his expression took on a very strange look.
That's gone awry, Lin Xin has completely gone astray!
