♂?，，

  A young man holding a dragon-headed zither looked at Lei Kui walking towards him with a smile all over his face, and a hint of vigilance also appeared on his face. He stared at Lei Kui without speaking.

  Lei's smile on his face stiffened, then he spread his hands and smiled: "Everyone doesn't have to be like this, we just entered here a few days earlier than you guys, we're all the same, we've all been through three 'death games' and won to get in here, we're not enemies, but friends, you guys are too cautious, haha."

  Shi Ling also walked up from behind and showed a sincere expression: "My name is Shi Ling, I don't know what to call you all?"

  The young man looked at Lei Kui and then at Shi Ling, pursed his lips, and said, "Zhou Shuai Ge."

  The young man reported his name, and the other three also reported their names in succession. The yellow-clothed woman's name was Huang Yixiu, the pale-faced man who coughed from time to time and looked weak was named Fang Xing, and the last strong-looking, muscular man was called Han Xin Yu.

  Although he was knocked down by that green-striped ghost beast and spat out a mouthful of blood, after taking a medicinal pill, he didn't suffer any major harm.

  Shi Ling secretly took note of their names, especially that Zhou Shuai Ge who used the dragon-headed guqin.

  Lei Ke was taken aback at first, then burst out laughing and said: "Zhou Shuai Ge? Haha! Not bad, indeed a handsome guy, this name is quite interesting, haha!"

  Lei Ke's mouth was unobstructed, and he liked to joke around. This week, however, the surname "Zi" was quite the opposite. Although young, Zi was relatively arrogant. In fact, he disliked his own name the most. In the past, because of this name, he had been ridiculed by many people. At this moment, after hearing Lei Ke's words, a hint of anger flashed across his face, but it quickly disappeared.

  Lei Ke didn't mind, but Shi Ling saw it and also didn't say much.

  Lei Ke smiled and then suddenly changed the subject, saying: "Since you all have arrived here, you should understand what kind of place this is, and you've all seen 'Hei Ta' (Black Tower), right? You should know how important the rewards are here. I have a proposal, I don't know if the four of you are interested?"

  Lei Ke's words were not wrong, although the four of them had only arrived today, but because there was an hour-long interval between each wave of ghost beasts, they had all carefully understood the "Black Tower" and seen the various tasks and team tasks inside. They knew that in this world, rewards determined everything, and the most direct way to get rewards was undoubtedly to do tasks.

  After listening to Lei Kuang's inquiry, Zhou Shuai Ge did not speak, and the woman in yellow, Huang Yi Xiu, said: "What proposal? Tell me about it."

  Because when the green-striped beast attacked her, Shi Ling had reminded her, so Huang Yi Xiu still had some gratitude for that. Therefore, she didn't have a bad impression of Shi Ling and Lei Kui, and it was clear that they had arrived here earlier than them, and were more familiar with everything here. Getting to know Shi Ling and Lei Kui wouldn't do them any harm either.

  Lei Ke saw Huang Yi Xiu's interest and smiled: "Everyone has seen the 'Black Tower', should know that in this world to survive, the most important thing is to enhance their own strength, but want to enhance their own strength, must get enough rewards, and to get rewards, need to go complete tasks."

  Huang Yixiu nodded and murmured in agreement. The seemingly frail young man, Fang Xing, coughed slightly and spoke softly: "Yes, it seems the tasks have been divided into several types, including 'extremely easy', 'relatively easy' and 'simple'. I also saw a team task with the most generous rewards."

  Lei Dao said, "That's right, these tasks have different rewards based on their difficulty. The most rewarding one is the 'Team Task', but to accept this task, we must first form a team and become partners through the 'Shadow Contract'. We already have four people who have formed the 'Shadow Contract', including me, Shi Ling, and two others who are still outside doing tasks and haven't returned yet. I'll introduce them to you when they get back."

  Lei smiled, his attitude not bad, and continued: "Shi Ling and I have the same idea. We want to invite four more people to join us, everyone signs a 'Shadow Contract', and then we go together to complete the team task. Each person can get a lot of generous rewards. For each of us, it's all profit and no harm."

  Lei Ke's proposal moved Huang Yixiu and others, they all looked at it in detail and knew that Lei Ke was right. Among the third-level tasks, there were only five rewards for "simple" tasks, while team tasks had ten rewards. Moreover, looking at Lei Ke and Shi Ling's appearance, they should not have any malicious intentions.

  Huang Yixiu and several others were moved, then they all looked at Zhou Shuai Ge together.

  Because the four of them came here together, they joined forces to experience three ghost beast raids, and also witnessed Zhou Shuai Ge's one move that blasted Lei Kui's "Holy Sword" away. Obviously, Lei Kui was far inferior to Zhou Shuai Ge. Unconsciously, Zhou Shuai Ge had already established an impression of the strongest in their minds, so Huang Yi Xiu and the others had a bit of a tendency to look up to him as their leader.

  The burly and imposing Cold Rain spoke in a loud voice, "Zhou Shuai Ge, what do you think? If you agree, I'll agree too. We can all work together and cooperate. It shouldn't be a bad thing. We just arrived here and there are many things we don't understand."

  Zhou Shuai's mouth twitched with a hint of a smile, and he said, "I know what 'Shadow Contract' is. When we form a 'Shadow Contract', you become the 'Contractor', and we become your loyal soldiers, listening to your orders, right?"

  Zhou Shuai's words made several people pause, and Lei Kuai laughed: "Little Shuai, you're thinking too much. We're all friends, even if we make a contract, we'll still be friends. Everyone is equal, who will give orders to whom?"

  "Maybe," Zhou Shuai said with a shake of his head, "but we just arrived here today and there's still a lot we're not familiar with. I think I'll spend the next two days getting used to things before making any decisions."

  Although he didn't say it explicitly, the implication was already very clear. He tactfully declined Lei Kun's intention.

  Zhou Shuai's rejection left Lei Ke stunned, and he turned to Huang Yixiu and the others: "What about them?" He thought that as long as one of them agreed, they would have the required five people, and then they could go accept the team quest.

  Huang Yixiu and the three of them looked at each other, Han Xinyu was the first to speak up, saying: "I agree with Zhou Shuai's idea, let's adapt here for two days first, heh, heh."

  They all came here with Zhou Shuai Ge on the same day, and experienced three ghost beasts coming to attack. In a sense, they are partners. On the emotional scale, Zhou Shuai Ge's weight in their minds must be more important than Shi Ling and Lei Kui.
