Chapter 696: Candidates for Departure

"Mr. Li, could you wait a moment?"

After Mr. Li finished his arrangements, Qin Feng immediately spoke up.

Lest he speak too late, and they move too fast, perhaps he wouldn't be able to catch up.

"Why, little friend Qin Feng, do you have other matters?"

Regarding Qin Feng, as a stranger, having the courage to help Lilith kill those two traitors,

and letting Lilith hide outside Beluna Town while he went into Beluna Town alone to investigate—

not just Lin An and the other young girls, but even Mr. Li, as a middle-aged man, was very impressed.

After all, not everyone could risk their own safety for a stranger and do so much.

So, they were very willing to listen to what Qin Feng had to say.

Furthermore, their first impression of Qin Feng was also very good.

"Earlier at the city gate, I saw them filling in their strength levels."

"Lin An's strength is at the fifth tier of the Chosen One, and the strength of the other four is at the fourth tier of the Chosen One, right?"

Qin Feng started by mentioning strength.

He also wanted to probe their strength to see if it was really as they had filled in, or if they had already hidden their true strength.

"They did indeed fill it in that way at the time, but in reality, Lin An's strength has already reached the sixth tier."

"Su Xiaoqian and Su Qingmu's strength is at the fifth tier of the Chosen One. As for the other two, it is indeed the fourth tier."

Mr. Li didn't intend to hide this from Qin Feng; after all, he was one of their own.

Upon hearing Mr. Li's answer, Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief; he finally had an excuse to follow the first wave and leave Beluna Town.

Although it was said that those who left might be in danger, he would deal with that when he actually encountered danger.

If he didn't take any risks at all and still wanted to complete the mission, was he joking?

Back then, Nangong Yuan's mission wasn't just dangerous, it was also confusing and even creepy.

Qin Feng, without the strength to truss a chicken, still took the mission and cooperated with Nangong Yuan to complete it, didn't he?

What's more, looking at the mission rewards, they weren't actually very high.

Therefore, the difficulty of these missions shouldn't be that high either.

Regarding the reliability of the system, Qin Feng currently recognized it relatively well.

Of course, he wouldn't completely trust or rely on the system.

After all, he still didn't understand what this thing was, so naturally, he couldn't trust it wholeheartedly.

"My strength is at the third tier of the Chosen One."

"But if you had carefully asked Lilith, you would know."

"In terms of combat power, my strength is definitely not lower than the fourth tier of the Chosen One, and even in terms of movement techniques and pinning down enemies, I'm afraid I'm even stronger than a fourth-tier Chosen One."

"If you don't mind, I can also follow the first wave to leave Beluna Town and escort Lilith and Prus to Bibabu City."

Qin Feng didn't say he wanted to do this; he only said he could do this.

"For this matter, you have already risked your own life."

"You originally had nothing to do with this matter; we certainly can't let you fall into even greater danger."

"We are all very grateful for your help. But we don't want to continue implicating you, to the point where you might meet with an accident."

Actually, Mr. Li's words were already a refusal.

But he wasn't making excuses; he truly felt that as a stranger,

Qin Feng had already done enough.

There was no need to do anything more.

"But I have already promised Lilith that I would go to Bibabu City with her."

"Although the danger level of this matter is beyond my predictions, one cannot be untrustworthy."

"So I hope Mr. Li can make it convenient for me to escort Lilith to Bibabu City."

This was the agreement Qin Feng had made with Lilith back then.

Before settling Lilith down and entering Beluna Town alone.

Lilith was very, very worried about Qin Feng's safety.

So Qin Feng made this agreement with Lilith before leaving to put her mind at ease.

At this moment, it actually helped Qin Feng.

It became his excuse to leave Beluna Town in the first wave.

Since Qin Feng had spoken to this extent, Mr. Li couldn't disagree anymore.

What's more, Qin Feng's action wasn't to avoid danger, but to head straight into it.

If Qin Feng followed the team to escort Lilith and the others,

then one of his students could safely stay under his wing and be protected by him.

No matter how one calculated it, they were the ones taking advantage.

Therefore, under Qin Feng's insistence, Mr. Li didn't continue to refuse.

Instead, he agreed with Qin Feng's statement and swapped Yasi out.

After all, Yasi's strength was only at the fourth tier.

If a real fight broke out, she would be on par with Qin Feng.

Swapping her was naturally much better than swapping out one of the two people whose strength was at the fifth tier of the Chosen One.

Since the departure time and personnel had been determined,

they had to act immediately.

As for the conversation and decision between Mr. Li and Qin Feng just now,

no one in the entire squad raised any objections. ===== CHAPTER 698 =====
