For this kind of risk transfer behavior, because it had been made clear beforehand during the recruitment process, the survivors who were still willing to become provisional team members had mentally prepared themselves for it.

The reason those survivors, who had just joined the team, accepted the dangerous work of the provisional team could only be because the leader, that is, the captain, was very foresighted.

During recruitment, not hiding anything from the applicants, clearly discussing the dangers upfront, and once they agreed to become provisional team members, first give them a sum of money for risking their lives, and then explain clearly to them that as long as they accompany the team on three missions, they can shed the name of provisional team member and become official ones.

Reality greatly differs from games, the most obvious being that when accepting tasks, no one knows whether an accident might occur during the execution of the task.

So some are lucky to breeze through three tasks, becoming official members, while others are unlucky enough to encounter out-of-scope tasks, or experience accidents during the task execution, leading to their death, without any further chance to become official members.

The one entering the yard with a lawnmower to weed was a provisional team member from their team; before becoming an official team member, no matter how dangerous it was during the task, as long as it wasn’t certain, deadly work, they were the ones to go first.

For this situation, all members of the team had grown accustomed, aside from the rare two or three, the others had also transitioned from provisional to official members.

After taking the lawnmower into the yard, he immediately started it up, cautiously beginning to weed from the entrance of the yard, slowly making his way towards the building inside. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

As that survivor started the lawnmower’s motor, the S-shaped metal blade at the front end of the metal pole began to spin frantically.

Watching the running lawnmower, he lowered the metal pole so that the rapidly spinning S-shaped metal blade was even closer to the ground, then he slowly cleared a path from the yard entrance directly to the small building inside.

While he was using the lawnmower, the rest of the team members were not idle but took out their firearms to provide protection for their concentrated provisional team member.

After all, the height of the overgrown grass in the garden was definitely over a meter, so no one knew what could be concealed within it.

Sending just him in to weed, apart from testing his qualifications before joining the team, was mainly using him as bait.

Letting him go in alone was precisely to see if there were any ’fish’ inside.

If there were small fish, the people around the Realm would do their best to deal with those caught.

But if by chance they ran into a big fish they couldn’t handle, they would have to painfully abandon the provisional member and quickly evacuate from this dangerous zone.

When that provisional team member successfully cleared a ’path’ from the yard entrance to the small building, everyone on guard let out a sigh of relief, just as they thought the job was done and were about to enter the yard, for some reason, the leader suddenly felt something was off.

So he stopped the others from entering the yard and continued to speak to the provisional member inside, "Take a break, then clear all the rest of the grass in the yard for me."

Hearing the leader’s words, the other replied directly from inside the yard, "Guaranteed mission completion."

Without a second word, he didn’t even take a rest, but turned the switch on again and continued with the weeding task inside, when he had cleared all the weeds inside the yard, he stood in the yard and called out to those outside, "Boss, the task is complete, there’s nothing dangerous inside, you can come in now."

Hearing the provisional team member inside say that, those who had been sitting outside immediately got up, ready to enter the yard, but at that moment, the leader still felt something was amiss, and yet he couldn’t quite put his finger on it, so he was extremely conflicted.

Seeing theboss’s conflicted expression, Number Three now licked his face and sidled over, "Boss, what’s wrong with you, didn’t that kid clear all the weeds inside? What are you thinking about now?"

As the saying goes, two heads are better than one, the leader had no intention of hiding his thoughts but spoke frankly to Number Three, "Before we took on this mission, my intuition was strongly against it, but as you know, we were compelled to accept this pressing task. We have no choice but to accept it.

All the way here, although you guys have said you came because I pressured you, deep down you all know if this task isn’t completed, our squad’s treatment in the future will definitely worsen a lot.

Everyone in the team understands that those complaints are just because the rewards this time aren’t great enough that they would want to return. I estimate no one will leave."

Before the leader could finish, Number Three interjected, "My dear big brother, if you have something to say, just say it. Don’t talk about those causes and effects or your emotional journey, this is not playing werewolf, all that talking is useless. Just get to the point."

Regarding Number Three’s interruption, the leader wasn’t angry but expressed what was on his mind, "Ever since that kid went in, I felt something was not right, but I couldn’t articulate what it was, so I monitored him the entire time he was working, yet I couldn’t find any problems.
