People in Ultra: Being chased by monsters at the beginning

"Want it?"

The sudden voice made Leo look down at Harlan, only to see a strange smile on his lips and an ambiguous gleam in his eyes as he looked at him.

"What's going on? I'm wearing a helmet. Did this woman find me?"

Leo looked at Harlan who was getting closer and closer to him, his body gradually tensed up. As long as she showed any sign of attacking, he would attack immediately.

"Hahahahaha!"

However, Harlan seemed to notice his nervousness, so he stopped walking, looked at him and laughed, then said, "Don't be nervous~, I just asked because you seem to be very interested in my red King Bridge."

After that, Harlan turned around and walked back, continuing: "Okay, let's get down to business. I brought you here to give you a secret mission.

Haven't you always wanted to surpass Daryl? I'll give you this chance, as long as you can find out the identity of the unknown Leonix and kill the top five Leonix on this list!

This red King Bridge is yours! I guarantee this as the captain of this command ship and the commander of the Pedan star! "

After saying that, she put her hand on her chin and looked at Leo with interest, as if she had already decided on him.

Seeing this, Leo did not agree immediately. There is no free lunch in the world, even if she took the initiative to invite him.

"What is this woman up to?"

Although Harlan's actions and language logic were normal, Leo still noticed something was wrong!

What's wrong is the attitude.

When she threw those Leonicus hunters down earlier, she didn't hesitate at all.

But now he is extremely enthusiastic about it and even willing to use his own red golden bridge as a mission reward.

"She wants something from me! As expected, the smarter the woman, the more dangerous she is!"

After some analysis, Leo came to this conclusion and began to be on guard.

He is now in the enemy camp. Although he managed to get in by relying on Pedanxing's clothes, it is hard to say what kind of detection equipment the other party may have to investigate his identity.

"It's better to leave early."

With this thought in mind, Leo decided to take advantage of the situation and went down the steps provided by Harlan. He immediately nodded to Harlan who was supporting his chin, indicating that he accepted the task. Then he pressed the bracelet and teleported out from here.

After he left, the smile on Harlan's face not only did not disappear, but became even brighter.

She was seen sitting on her flying chair, moving her arm slightly, calling up the virtual screen, and tapping the air with her fingers.

The virtual screen immediately switched from the original Leonix list to a communication interface, which contained the communication records between her and the Leonix hunters.

Like the previous Leonix list, the Hunter's communication list is also ranked by battle record.

Harlan moved her fingers slightly and opened the communication record between her and the hunter at the top. Looking at the content, her mouth moved slightly and a smile appeared on her face.

……

Leo followed the route he had noted down and successfully returned to the dock and found his spaceship.

After learning how to drive the helmet with his mind, he soon succeeded in starting the spaceship in the same way.

Then the hatch opened and he controlled the spacecraft to fly out of the dock and leave the mothership.

At this moment, he stood in front of the control console of the spacecraft, recalling Harlan's expression from before. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. "No, that woman must have seen something!"

He didn't believe that this woman would treat him specially just because the original owner of the bracelet was the second-ranked Leonix hunter.

You know, in the original work, she could shoot and kill even the number one Leonix hunter, Dayl, without hesitation.

Not to mention that these Leonicus hunters had just returned and were sent out by her to perform new missions, without any rest time at all.

Leo doesn't think she is a good commander who is considerate of the soldiers. Instead, she is more like a blind commander who exploits the soldiers.

So the woman must have seen something in him, which is why her attitude is different from that of other hunters.

"But if she knew who I was, why would she let me go? Don't the Pedan people hate Leonix?"

Leo was surprised that he could leave safely. He originally thought that he would be besieged by the Pedan people after leaving the command room, but in the end he not only reached the dock, but the process was also very smooth.

"What is her purpose? Is she going to use me as a weapon for their Pedan Star like in the original novel?

No, if it was just a weapon, I should have been taken down and controlled earlier! She is a smart woman and will not make such a low-level mistake.

Let me think about it, she saw that I was not a simple person, but she let me go, and at the same time wanted to get something from me... Could it be that she wanted to use me to get rid of all the Leonics?"

Leo suddenly thought of a possibility, but then he changed his mind and rejected it.

Because even if he did nothing, the Leonicus fight itself would lead them to destruction.

“Since her target is not my hand, there is only one possibility. She is not interested in a single local ability, but the whole thing.

She was attracted to my whole person! She was attracted to the value that I could bring to her, and the thing that could be associated with the whole person should be identity.

An identity that allows her to ask for something but also let it go..."

Thinking of this, Leo suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind! It was like a thread connecting all the clues!

"She... mistook me for... Leonix of Pedan! So she asked something of me and then let me go.

Then the purpose of her giving me a secret mission was to test my strength."

As soon as he thought of this, Leo understood Harlan's intentions towards him, and his worries disappeared.

People are only afraid of the unknown, but have a sense of control over known things.

Now that Leo already knows Harlan's purpose, he naturally won't allow her to test him.

He decided to take advantage of the situation and make her believe step by step that he was Leonix from the planet Pedan, but he had to be on guard against others and eliminate the threat he felt to her.

For this reason, Leo decided that instead of passively letting her test his strength, it would be better to proactively expose some of his strength and stabilize it, creating a false upper limit and making her mistakenly believe that he posed no threat to her. Only in this way could he completely ensure his own safety.

Thinking of this, Leo took out the fighting instrument, turned on the screen, and quickly flipped through it. Looking at the repaired black gold ancient bridge, Leo looked up and looked forward, whispering: "It's time to take you out for some training."
