Wilderness Redemption Tour

Regardless of whether Lin Yan's analysis of Dutch was right or wrong, this more reasonable statement greatly alleviated Arthur's resistance.

He took out a cigarette, put it between his lips and asked, "The Gray family said they will recruit people tomorrow, but they didn't say how many people to recruit. Dutch means that half of us will go and half will stay. Do you want to go?"

"Me?" Lin Yan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "The last time I worked for the Braithwaites was when Sean and I burned their tobacco fields. The Gray family's guards saw me. It's not appropriate for me to go, so forget it."

"Okay then." Arthur lit up the cigarette and took a long drag. Then, he said casually, "Micah has been quite active in recent activities. He even clamored to participate in a job like this that doesn't make much money."

Lin Yan guessed: "Maybe he wanted to make up for the last time he instigated Dutch to negotiate with Colm, so he tried his best to show off in front of Dutch and wanted to please Dutch again."

"Hmm..." Arthur counted on his fingers and recalled.

"Now that you mention it, I remember. During the days you were away, Micah was extra attentive to Dutch. Dutch spent more time with him than with Molly."

"This operation might have been prompted by Dutch. This is actually a good idea. It is better to keep him under our control than to let him cause trouble for us a while ago."

......

The next morning, Lin Yan learned from Arthur about the people who went with him to the "Palace of Pleasure" to apply for the Gray family guard position.

"It's me, Micah, Bill, Javier, and Sean."

"Sean?" Lin Yan frowned and asked, "Did he want to go there on his own?"

Arthur spread his hands and said helplessly: "Who would force him to go? He asked for it on his own initiative."

"You told me yesterday that the Gray family's guards had seen you. I also told him about the risks here, but he insisted on getting involved, saying that it was dark at that time and the other party couldn't see his face clearly. Why don't you go and persuade him again? After all, one more or one less person in the team won't make much difference."

"Okay, then I'll try it." Lin Yan nodded and agreed.

Lin Yan found Sean who was having breakfast with Karen. Before he could speak, he found that Sean's entire body was emitting a faint red glow. This had never happened before, and it immediately reminded Lin Yan of his new skill: danger warning.

On Sean's body, Lin Yan not only saw the danger warning, but also the highest level red warning, which indicated that Sean was about to face a huge crisis, the kind that would basically mean his death.

Lin Yan did not rush over to persuade Sean, but walked around the camp to see if there were any warning signs on the other people Arthur had just mentioned.

After looking at them one by one, Lin Yan found that the other three people who went with Arthur, except for Bill who had a faint yellow glow around him, Javier and Micah were all normal.

There is no need to worry about the yellow light on Bill's body, at most he will just get hurt a little, but Sean must stop it.

When Sean was found again, he and Karen had already finished breakfast and were talking and laughing about something. Lin Yan walked up to them and said straight to the point: "Sean, the Gray family's guards saw us that day. You followed Arthur and the others to apply for the job today. In case you were recognized..."

"Oh, you think too much, brother." Sean came over and put his arm around Lin Yan's shoulders and said, "It was so late that time, I bet they didn't even see what we looked like."

"But someone will definitely be able to hear your accent. It will be exposed as soon as you open your mouth."

Sean's accent has a strong Irish accent. Once people hear it once, they will never forget the unique pronunciation and intonation.

"Oh...what you said seems to make some sense." After Lin Yan's reminder, Sean finally realized and nodded.

"Forget it, I won't go on this mission." He said nonchalantly.

After Sean said he would not go, Lin Yan clearly saw that the faint red light attached to his body disappeared.

"Yeah." Lin Yan nodded with satisfaction, patted his shoulder and said, "I'll go tell Arthur, you go and do your thing."

In front of Dutch's tent, Lin Yan found Arthur and his group who were about to set off.

What surprised him was that he had not seen any danger warning from anyone except Bill just now, but now, he saw that Micah's body was also stained with a faint orange light.

Lin Yan's heart was moved. Could this be the so-called butterfly effect? ​​Sean, who was doomed to die, withdrew from the mission, but Micah "luckily" took Sean's place?

But this time, Lin Yan didn't plan to do anything else.

He had seen Micah's past performance, and he felt that letting Micah "just happened" to die in this mission would be a good thing for others.

After telling Arthur that Sean had withdrawn from the mission, Lin Yan personally watched the four of them leave the camp.

Shortly after they left, John, who was on guard at the east entrance of the camp today, suddenly ran over out of breath.

"Enemy attack!"

"There is an enemy attack!"

John ran and shouted warnings.

On the other side, Charles, who was in charge of standing guard at the north entrance of the camp, also rushed into the camp at an extremely fast speed.

"There are enemies here too!"

"We're surrounded!"

The moment they heard John shout "enemy attack", everyone in the camp stopped what they were doing at the same time. Those who had guns with them drew their pistols. Non-combatants such as Hosea and Aunt Susan also ran to the camp's weapons carriage and took out their weapons.

Dutch strode out of his tent and looked at the chaotic crowd. He took a deep breath and said calmly, "Calm down!"

After saying that, he drew out the two guns from his waist and looked at John and Charles who were on duty.

"What's going on outside now?"

"A lot of people suddenly came outside the north exit. They looked like Pinkerton detectives." John said, panting.

"It's almost the same over here. There are a lot of people coming and the firepower is very strong." Charles said with a serious expression.

Upon hearing this news, Dutch's face darkened. "How did they come so coincidentally..." he muttered to himself, then he raised his spirits and commanded: "Ms. Bell, how is your defense line arranged?"

"No problem. Except for the entrance, I have set up three layers of protection everywhere else." The "beauty in black" said confidently, carrying her rifle.

"Okay then. Molly, Marybeth, you will move with Ms. Bell and follow her instructions. As for the others, half of them will follow me to guard the north entrance, and the other half will follow Hosea to guard the east entrance."
