Chapter 193 - 193: 104. Iron Thorn Shield_2

“I won’t talk about my previous identity. It wasn’t very pleasant. Now, I just want to start a new life. You can call me Ray Lee.”

Kent wasn’t bothered by the caution in Noland’s words.

He raised his hand and waved over the campsite filled with corpses and bloodstains:

“Can you tell me what happened here, Ray Lee? This fishing camp was under the protection of the Iron Thorn Shield Security Firm. Although I am not the person in charge of security here, and I didn’t come here for the slain fishermen, as an armed captain hired by Iron Thorn Shield, I think I should ask someone for the situation as I pass by to feel more secure. Can you give me an answer?”

“Of course, there’s nothing I can’t say. As you can see, the fishermen here are all dead. They were killed by scavengers. I happened to need some food, drink, and transportation, so I killed all these scavengers.”

Noland’s tone was still calm, as if killing a few villains were as simple as crushing a few ants.

Kent looked at the revolver and dagger on Noland’s waist and rubbed his chin in recollection:

“Hmm… Just now, we rushed here when we heard the gunfire, and from beginning to end, we only saw you alive. Indeed, you were the only one on the scene who could have killed the scavengers.”

Kent put his hand on his crew-cut head, scratched the top of his head, and looked at the scavengers shot right in the forehead, exclaiming:

“1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6… You killed six scavengers with a revolver. Another person had their throat cut open, that should also be your doing, right? I never expected… In the years since I left the Empire, young people in the Empire have become so capable.”

Kent clapped his hands and took out a business card from his pocket:

“Here, take this. It’s my business card. If you are looking for a livelihood, consider our Iron Thorn Shield Security Firm.”

Noland took the card and glanced at the characters on the paper:

“Are you guys really short on manpower? You even dare to accept me, a smuggled Empire native.”

Kent crossed his arms, shrugging:

“You just came here, so you may not know the situation. This place is much more dangerous than the Empire. Fission Wilderness is a place with the most people but at the same time the shortage of people is huge. Gunfights and fights can be found everywhere. If you want to know, companies dare to accept wanted criminals and Sin Soldiers from the Empire. Regardless, they collect money and sell their lives. The companies paying us and us selling our lives is enough, there’s no need to worry too much about it.”

Looking at the corpses of scavengers and fishermen, Noland said, “Yes, I’ve already felt the ‘enthusiasm’ of the Fission Wilderness. The turnover of people here is really not ordinary… But sorry, Kent, I haven’t even settled my identity card, I’m afraid I can’t even enter the city.”

Noland said this to avoid revealing that he could easily change his appearance and physique, rather than that he really couldn’t enter the city.

“Oh, that’s a small issue. Iron Thorn Shield has quite a wide range of businesses.”

Kent spread his hands:

“If you are interested in joining, getting you a clean identity card is no problem.

You can ask any of my mates, this is the most basic treatment offered by Iron

Thorn Shield.”

“Are you sure?” Noland Lee was slightly surprised.

“Of course. But you should also know that there is a cost to it. A clean identity card requires at least 100,000 Union Coins. If you accept this card, you must pay it back before you can leave. As for whether you want to stay in Iron Thorn Shield or develop in other companies or gang sects after paying it back, it’s up to you to decide…”

Noland’s heart was slightly stirred, and he suddenly found that Iron Thorn Shield Security Firm had some capability.

In the scavenger’s memory, 100,000 Union Coins could only buy an inferior card with a criminal record on the black market.

This card was called an Inferior Card.

People who held Inferior Cards could only move within a small designated area and would be restricted in consumption and accommodation.

There would be no such problem with a clean identity card, and one could move freely within the lower town of Union City.

A clean identity card was priceless on the black market, and basically, no one was selling them.

It seemed that only security firms like Iron Thorn Shield could obtain clean identity cards through stable channels.

Noland originally planned to “freeload” a better Inferior Card in the black market.

But now that he had the opportunity to get a clean identity card, he might as well try it out.

Noland thought for a moment and asked:

“Are you not afraid that I’ll run away with the clean identity card, Kent? How can you be so sure I’ll be able to pay back the 100,000?”

“Good question. To be honest, we have encountered the situation you mentioned before. Some guys didn’t think it through, took our identity card and ran. Although they were all caught in the end, it still caused quite a bit of trouble. Therefore, Iron Thorn Shield uses an employment contract protected by the Alchemy Cathedral to protect our interests. Once you arrive at our company, you’ll see the contract.” Kent snapped his fingers:

“As for how I can be sure that you can pay back the 100,000, I have a suggestion. We are currently executing a security mission, so consider it your probation period. As long as you cooperate with me to complete the task in the subsequent time, I will consider you passing my inspection..
