In this night attack, the number of casualties in the exploration team's Steel Fire Mercenary Regiment, including those killed in action, was 29.

In addition to the deceased, there are 11 injured people who need to be sent back to the base camp for medical treatment.

It can be said to be a heavy loss.

Even more difficult is the loss of materials.

Although the communication equipment was preserved, many materials in the camp were burned and damaged.

Several drinking water reserves were damaged by the explosion, and two sets of water purification equipment in the camp were also damaged.

There was also a lot of food loss. Although most of the food in the camp was rescued after the fire was controlled and extinguished, more supplies were stored in the cabin of the gunboat! After the gunboat was blown up and sunk, the

All supplies are gone.

The biggest and most serious loss was the loss of the fleet and the means of transportation!

It has been two days and two nights since we set off, and the fleet has already penetrated deep into the jungle along the tributaries of the Amazon.

The gunboat on the river bank was blown up. Selina sent someone to check it out and said that it was impossible to repair it with the tools and supplies she had.

Most of the hovercrafts were also taken away by the attackers, leaving only three hovercrafts, and one of the propellers was also damaged.

The most critical thing is that after the gunboat was blown up, the fuel was gone.

"There are four problems we face now.

The first is the wounded! They must be sent back as soon as possible!

The second is the means of transportation back. We only have three hovercrafts, which are barely enough to transport 11 wounded people. But they are only enough to transport the wounded, and fuel is also very tight.

Third, we lack fresh water! The water purification equipment was blown up! We took stock of the supplies and found that the remaining fresh water in our hands was enough for us to drink for two days.

Fortunately, this is a tropical rain forest and there is no shortage of fresh water. Although the fresh water in the river cannot be used directly, we have brought water purification medicine and can also boil hot water for sterilization and disinfection. Although it is a bit troublesome, at least we will not die of thirst.

Therefore, in the coming time, everyone is prohibited from using fresh water for washing.

Fourth, it’s food! The food stored in the camp is okay, but the main food reserves are on the ship and are gone now. The rations we have now are enough for us to consume for three days. If we haven’t left here in three days

, we can only survive in the wild!"

After Varnell made these announcements, no one spoke.

Vanel looked at everyone, and then slowly raised a topic.

"These problems can all be solved...but the biggest problem we face now is what should we do now.

Casualties, material losses... We are now contacting the base camp immediately and retreating...

Still, keep exploring!”

Having said this, Varnell looked at everyone present and said slowly: "You are not employees of our company, you are all people invited by us, so I have no right to issue orders to you, nor do I have the right to force you to

What.

Therefore, I can only ask for your opinions.

If you feel you want to go back, you can bring it up. However, after you go back, the reward for this mission will not be paid as originally promised, because the mission failed!

If... you are willing to continue..."

Vanel gritted his teeth, with a stern look on his face, and said fiercely: "No one has ever openly attacked our company like this! I will not accept that after suffering such a big loss, I will become ashes without even farting."

Turn around and run back!

I must continue to explore and find the mastermind behind this, and then make these guys pay the price!

No one can let the octopus bear such a huge loss and still be at ease!"

When Chen Nuo heard this, he muttered in a low voice: "It's...Magical World Company."

"...Yes, it's the Magic World Company." Varnell was stunned for a moment, then quickly changed his words, and then continued: "Now, it's time for everyone to make a decision."

After saying that, Vanel walked out of the tent directly, leaving space and time to Chen Nuo and others in the tent.

Except for the professor who was seriously injured and unconscious after being brought back by Bonfrey, there were six ability users present in the tent at this moment.

Chen Nuo sat calmly and smoked silently, without speaking first.

After a moment of silence, the sea monster finally spoke first.

This handsome and sunny man whose nickname did not match his appearance first glanced at everyone present with his cold eyes.

"Then, let me talk first."

The sea monster stood up immediately!

It's actually normal for him to have a sense of responsibility in his tone. The legendary boss who controls Son of the Sun has not arrived, so among the people present now, judging from the cards, the strength of the sea monster is the strongest.

Strong.

After the sea monster spoke, everyone looked at him.

"I don't want to go back!"

The sea monster did not talk in circles, nor did he feint a shot or anything, but expressed his attitude very directly and decisively!

"I have never suffered such a big loss, and then ran away in despair without doing anything. I have never encountered this kind of thing before, and I will not tolerate anyone doing this to me this time.

So, no matter what your choice is, I will continue!"

After saying that, the sea monster sat back directly.

After two seconds of silence...

"I'll stay too," the golden bird whispered.

This old lady, who didn't know whether she was a boy or a girl, had a hoarse voice: "Before setting off, I was injured. The person who treated my injury was a sea monster. Even if it's out of gratitude, I'm willing to stay and help you.

"

I see……

Chen Nuo nodded secretly.

No wonder this golden bird has been staying with the sea monster since she set out on the road. During the night attack last night, she also fought closely with the sea monster.

It turns out that before setting off, she was injured in a decisive battle with the lion Luke. The injury recovered so quickly because the sea monster came to help.

"I stayed."

Bonfrey spoke third.

His reason was simple: "I know you all still doubt me. The professor was injured at night, and I was the only one present...not just you, I'm afraid Vanel also doubts me.

I don't want to go back with this kind of suspicion and let the octopus monster organization and all the famous ability users in the underground world here regard me as an enemy.

In order to remove the suspicion on me, I am also willing to stay and help find those who attacked us."

Then there's Black the gray cat.

He sneered: "All three of them expressed their willingness to stay, am I a coward?

What a joke! We are all people walking in the underground world, and we don’t know how many dangers we have experienced.

You have pride, don’t I?

I have never suffered such a big loss, and I also want these guys to pay some price.

And... the Son of the Sun should be here tomorrow! I don’t believe that there is a master controller sitting in this damn jungle, how long can the troublemaker behind it be hidden!"

Then, it's Chen Nuo's turn.

Sea Monster, Golden Bird, Bonfrey, and Black all looked at Chen Nuo.

"Mr. Harvey, what do you mean?" Bonfrey asked.

Chen Nuo thought about it for a while, with a solemn smile on his face: "Me... I don't care whether I go back or not.

But... I happen to be short of money recently! I must take a big share of the bonus from this mission!"

Then only Ryoko Sato is left.

To be honest, from this journey to last night's night attack, Chen Nuo really didn't find anything useful in this fat RB woman.

It seems that apart from being greedy, he is also timid.

and……

Just when Chen Nuo thought Sato Ryoko would express his desire to go back...

"I will also stay and continue the mission." Sato Ryoko stood up and bowed to everyone, and said quickly in Japanese: "I am willing to contribute my own strength to complete this mission. Everyone, please believe me, please!"

This RB fat woman spoke Japanese. Except for Chen Nuo, no one present seemed to understand Japanese, so everyone looked at Chen Nuo.

Chen Nuo sighed and translated it in English for everyone.

The Golden Bird seems to have some affection for Sato Ryoko, after all, she sat with Sato Ryoko before setting off.

"But this child seems to be very scared. Is she really okay? Is she really okay?"
