Chapter 248: Special Agent Instructor!

“That’s right. I’m the instructor,” the male Scout NPC said coldly.

Big Pineapple breathed a sigh of relief and put down the alloy shield. “So it’s that instructor…”

“So, you are our instructor!” The Light Armor Warrior looked happy.

The words of the Light Armor Warrior showed that he was probably a candidate chosen by another one of the three main special agent bureaus, and clearly, unlike Feng Luo’s group who had met Haruko before, he had never met his instructor.

That meant that it was probable that not all special agent instructors were in Dongsang City.

“No, that is incorrect. I am only your instructor, number 74. Their instructor is Sakura.” The male Scout NPC’s cold smile remained. He glanced at Feng Luo, who had never moved the submachine guns in his hands, as well as Big Pineapple, who had raised his shield again after hearing his words.

“Sakura? Who’s Sakura?” When Big Pineapple spoke, he moved a few steps towards Feng Luo.

The male Scout remained in his position and did not react upon seeing Big Pineapple’s movements; he only continued to speak coldly. “Didn’t Sakura tell you her codename? Every Federation Special Agent has a codename. This represents a recognized identity in the corresponding special agent bureau.”

“Oh, that means that Miss Haruko’s codename is ‘Sakura.’ I wonder what, instructor, your codename is?” Big Pineapple saw that the NPC did not react to his movements. So, he relaxed and walked over to Feng Luo’s side with the alloy shield in his hand.

“Nightingale.” The male Scout’s voice was cold, and his codename was similarly cold.

“Instructor Nightingale, forgive me for asking a question. If you appeared here, does that mean you will be working with us?” Feng Luo had not moved since the beginning, and he stayed in a position where he could easily retreat behind a large tree. He wanted to keep an eye on this “Nightingale.” Haruko had mentioned before that the relationship between the three main special agent bureaus in this mission was a competitive one. They were not completely working together. As such, Feng Luo’s question was intentionally testing the opponent’s attitude.

After all, the combat strength displayed by this Nightingale just now was enough to make him and Big Pineapple feel threatened. So, he had to ensure that he wouldn’t do anything to the both of them since they had been planning to ambush the number 74 Light Armor Warrior just now.

“Relax. Although I am his instructor, I will not directly interfere with the competition between you examinees. The three of us instructors will not directly join the competition between you before the end of the third day. After the third day… If you survive in this death game until then, you will naturally find out.” As he said that, Nightingale’s eyes had a cold and mocking laugh.

“Then the competition between us, are there any restrictions?” Feng Luo had already been given the answer to this question from Haruko, and he just wanted to confirm it.

“There are no restrictions. Even if you killed the contestants of the other bureaus, it would not negatively influence the assessment of you.” As Nightingale said that, he stared straight into Feng Luo’s eyes, however, he also showed a colder smile.

After hearing these words, the Light Armor Warrior’s expression changed immediately. He quickly raised the alloy sword in his hands as he became very cautious. After all, Feng Luo was “That number 99!” In the exam mission on the sixth day in Dongsang City, no one would have missed the number one ranked person who widened the gap with the second-ranking person by more than a hundred points!

Feng Luo nodded without showing any expression and said to Big Pineapple, “Understood. Big Pineapple, let’s go!”

“Old Feng!” Big Pineapple’s shield was raised in front of Feng Luo. He used his eyes to signal the supply box on the ground.

“Let’s go!” Feng Luo simply turned around and headed towards the forest. However, while turning around, he did not loosen his grip on the submachine gun raised in front of his chest; moreover, his other hand held a tiny cylindrical item.

Behind the two of them, the Scout instructor codenamed “Nightingale” stood beside player number 74 as he gazed coldly at Feng Luo and Big Pineapple.

“F*ck! That’s so annoying, to have it stolen by an NPC,” said Big Pineapple, irritated, after they walked a certain distance out of the forest.

“We did all that for nothing. In the end, we don’t even know what’s inside that box. That number 74, he’s probably pretty happy right now!”

“Old Feng, truthfully speaking, if we work together, we might have a chance,” said Big Pineapple while he looked at the slightly serious-looking Feng Luo. “If I cast my defensive skills, I could probably tank his attacks for a while. Moreover, you should know that rare skill of mine. It should be able to ensure that you won’t get instantly killed by him. His attack is so ridiculously high, theoretically speaking, his HP and defense shouldn’t be too high… With your damage, probably… In five shots…”

“You’re oversimplifying things.” Feng Luo shook his head. “Don’t forget, he’s an instructor for the special agent mission, which means that he has at least two professions. Moreover, it might be a mix of multiple professions. Before finding out what the opponent’s profession is, we don’t really have any chance of victory if we were to really fight with him. However, the strength he displayed isn’t necessarily a bad thing.”

“It’s not?” Big Pineapple looked at Feng Luo with a surprised expression.

“The strength displayed by the higher grade NPCs in War isn’t like in other games where their HP and attacks are increased forcefully, which means that Nightingale’s strength is something that we can also reach after we successfully change our profession into this hidden profession. I’m now looking forward to this Special Agent hidden profession even more!” Feng Luo’s gaze showed he was in deep thought.

“Of course you can look forward to it. You’re number one on the ranking. Moreover, you’re leading the second rank by a huge gap. The spot for the hidden profession is pretty much a given for you.” Big Pineapple said. “But I still don’t have enough points. The mission in Dongsang City isn’t easy. I only got lucky and managed to push my points into the tens, and this is because more than ten of those who ranked higher had their points deducted for some weird reason!” Big Pineapple did not know that the point deduction was actually connected to Feng Luo.

“Did you forget the questions I asked him?” Feng Luo looked at Big Pineapple.

“Before the third day ends, us players belong to different bureaus, and killing the opponents does not entail punishments… That’s why we only need to find opportunities to get rid of the examinees from the other two bureaus. That way, we’ll be able to eliminate a number of competitors!”

“The players who can take part in this death game are mostly those who are ranked higher in the ranking, probably the top ten. Furthermore, as long as we kill Ichiro Yamamoto in the mission, there’s probably going to be a lot more points rewarded at the end. That way, with your initial rank 13 points, you might even make it to the top five and obtain the qualification to change profession. I really do think that, for this special agent hidden profession, it’s worth changing.”

“Heh, hearing you say all that makes me think that I really do have a chance!” Big Pineapple’s eyes also glowed. However, he immediately complained right after. “However, right now, let’s find some supplies. If we don’t get something to eat, my body is really going to become weak!”
