In contrast to Uvogin's anticipation and confidence, Feitan frowned slightly.
Releasing a film is not as easy as it seems...
However, when he looked up and saw that Mog still had the same calm expression, he calmed down as well.
Judging from the captain's appearance... Mog clearly has a plan in mind.
Then he wouldn't need to worry about it anymore; he could just follow Mog's orders.
As for Nobunaga, there's nothing to worry about.
This is not a problem that reinforcement systems like theirs should be considering.
As long as you follow Commander Mog's orders and commands, that's enough.
Well, even in the world of hunters, getting a film shown isn't a difficult task.
Don't think that just because you have a great piece of work, you can easily find a TV station to collaborate with, and have them be amazed and fall head over heels for it, desperately seeking further cooperation...
That's not realistic.
This world is much crueler and more ruthless.
If Mog and his group, these seemingly easy targets, come knocking on our door seeking cooperation...
More likely, they will be completely exploited.
A cruder method is to seize by coercion and enticement.
A more sophisticated method involves feigning deception and pandering to them, then subtly using various legal contracts to effortlessly acquire ownership of the [Beast Squad].
Mog never hesitated to assume the worst about the people in this world.
So he never even considered using the [Beast Squad] to seek cooperation after he came out.
That can wait until later, at a suitable opportunity, to get to know the right person and maximize the benefits.
Mog had already made up his mind.
Therefore, if we arrive in the city next...
Squeak!
His body suddenly leaned forward, and the interior of the RV was also tilted to one side.
A sudden, sharp stop interrupted Mog's thoughts.
“Finks!!!”
Uvogin roared, "I'm going to kill you!!!"
"Uh, that..."
From inside the cockpit came Finks' reply: "Actually, it seems we've reached the edge of the city; I can see the outline..."
"Then why are you even braking?! Just drive right through!!!!"
"There seems to be border control there..."
"?????"
Bigchira City, the closest city to Meteor Street, is a garbage truck transportation city.
It certainly has boundaries and checks to prevent dangerous individuals from Meteor City from coming into the city and causing trouble.
Of course, even if they find out who the truly dangerous and terrifying individuals are, they might not be able to handle them...
Therefore, when Finks arrived at this border control area in his RV...
"Sir, this is my identification..."
Following Mog's instructions, Finks rolled down the car window and handed over his identification.
At the same time, in order to show friendliness and warmth, he specially showed a "goodwill" smile.
The soldier in charge of border inspection: "..."
They stared at the eyebrowless, extremely ferocious and terrifying smile, and fell silent.
However, the routine procedures still need to be followed.
After taking Finks's identification, they pretended to look at it, then asked a perfunctory question:
"Your place of residence is the Republic of Bathoria, so how did you end up here?"
“I’m a traveler, on a round-the-world trip, sir.”
Is there anyone else in the car?
"There are none left, only me."
"Hmm, it's alright, let's go in~~~"
The soldiers didn't even check if there was anyone else inside the RV before letting it pass.
Are you kidding me? What kind of guy can drive around in the Meteor City desert?!
Besides, didn't you see how fierce this guy looks?!
Who knows, he might really be some kind of terrifying guy.
Moreover, there might be his accomplices inside the RV, who might even be engaged in some shady dealings right now.
If he were to conduct a thorough investigation and uncover any problems with this group...
Needless to say, these guys will definitely fight back, and I'll certainly be the first to be hit.
His monthly salary is barely a few dollars, why should he get entangled with these guys who look like desperate criminals?!
And even if he survives by chance, once he causes a huge uproar...
He will not only fail to receive praise from his superiors, but may even be severely reprimanded.
Stability is the best policy; avoid creating unnecessary trouble.
Otherwise, the child born to his wife, whom he had married less than six months ago, might end up being taken over by someone else.
Just turn a blind eye.
These ordinary people have long had their own set of survival logic and methods.
"It was easier than I expected."
Inside the RV, Feitan discreetly watched the investigation process outside through the window, lost in thought.
"Therefore, simply resorting to fistfights cannot completely solve the problem."
Mog smiled. "Sometimes, changing your perspective and approach might actually make things easier."
"This world has its own unique rules, and they operate accordingly~~~"
Uvogin and Phinks, two guys who only think with their fists and muscles, wouldn't understand this.
Or rather, even if they understood, they wouldn't care and would continue to do as they pleased, trusting their own fists.
Just like Nobunaga, he only trusted the sword in his hand.
Feitan was a bit more intelligent than them.
Whoosh~!
As the RV entered the city, the buildings and scenery along the city streets filled Fink with wonder.
If it weren't for Mog's instructions, he would have been peeking around and looking everywhere.
However, he suppressed his curiosity and obediently drove the car to a secluded and deserted corner.
Then everyone got out of the car, and Mog turned the RV into a multi-functional capsule and put it away again.
"So what should we do next?!"
Uvogin seemed very eager to try it out; everything felt so new and exciting to him in this unfamiliar environment.
"Now that we have come to the outside world, while we do not yet have enough power to resist and deal with the malice of this world."
"Then we must first abide by the rules of this world; this is called keeping a low profile."
Mog smiled and then, seeing Uvogin and Phinks staring at each other, he gave a brief explanation:
"You can think of coming outside as a game world."
"If you want to complete this game called 'The World,' you must abide by the rules of the game."
Yes, the concept of "Earth Online," which was very popular on Earth before, is also very suitable here.
At least, Phinks and Feitan, who both loved games, immediately understood.
These two guys are in the future Yorknew City.
Despite being bound by Kurapika's "Contract and Oath," unable to use his Nen abilities or contact the Phantom Troupe members, Chrollo was forced to leave for distant lands.
As a result, Feitan and Phinks even went to the Southpis Auction and actually snatched a Greed Island game from Batra to play.
Moreover, when the Phantom Troupe first appeared.
When Feitan, Nobunaga, Machi, Franklin, and the others were walking in the desert on the outskirts of Yorknew City.
The group mentioned their target this time: the underground auction. Feitan, once again, was specifically focusing on the game "Greed Island".
The two can be considered hidden gaming addicts.
If you tell them to follow the rules, they may not listen or obey.
But if they're there to play games, they'd be happy to give it a try.
"So, the most important thing in playing this game is the basic condition for survival..."
Feitan and Phinks were listening intently, while Uvogin was picking at his ear.
As for Nobunaga... his mind was temporarily residing in Mog's body.
"In the current version of the game, there are three main types of storylines: status, money, and strength."
Mog held up three fingers: "Of these three, the most important is..."
"strength!!"
Feitan squinted and blurted out.
