Apocalypse Arrival - chapter 192

“What she meant is that she doesn’t want to join us?” Fu Jianjun said while looking at his nephew standing in front of him.

“Yes, uncle. Qianxun is just a little girl, so it’s normal that she doesn’t want to get involved in too complicated things.” Fu Guoxu hurriedly explained for his friend, “But Qianxun said that if there is a hunting operation, she can cooperate with us.”

His uncle had been in high authority for many years, and now he was the leader of the entire base. He had been in awe of this uncle since he was young. So he said so out of fear that his uncle might be dissatisfied with his friend.

“Guoxu, you don’t need to explain.” Fu Jianjun raised his hand to stop his young nephew’s explanation, “Your classmate is more clever than you think. She stays neutral because she knows that she is already strong enough to have the capital that can not be controlled by any party. At this time, an independent small mercenary team is the easiest and most profitable model for her.”

He stood up, lit a cigarette, and walked a few steps in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window, “But she saved my life after all. Mobilise a group of people to settle her and her group in the community. On one hand, it’s to maintain public order there and prevent Cai Jiaquan from targeting them. On the other hand, we can also maintain a good relationship with them.”

“Oh, yes, you take my transfer order and give appropriate subsidies to the residents near their villas and resettle them separately. This is my way of expressing my gratitude.”

“Yes, uncle, I’ll do it right away!” Fu Guoxu was overjoyed. He didn’t expect his friend to receive such attention from his uncle, and he was a little proud.

“Go, thank her for me, and call all your uncles in,” Fu Jianjun waved. He stood in front of the window smoking a cigarette, looking at the moonlight.

At the moment, at the corner of Ludao Island, Zhong Hongfei was alone, walking hurriedly along the street without lights.

After joining Heart of Winter, he participated in every demon hunt of the team. Although he tried his best in every battle, he knew in his heart that he basically didn’t play a substantial role in the battle. Instead, he was often injured, wasting the medicines in the team, and he needed the help of his companions.

The team leader and teammates never said much, and even every time the prize was distributed, the team leader did not forget to give him some.

Zhong Hongfei put his hand in his pocket, and gently turned around the five small first-order crystal cores in his pocket. He was always reluctant to buy the materials every time he got the crystal cores, and finally accumulated a sufficient amount. He planned to use these to find Head Chu to exchange it with a second-order crystal core.

He eagerly wanted to improve his rank and stop being the most useless one in the team.

A group of people came to meet him, surrounded by a middle-aged woman who was short and fat but dressed up.

With her long hair and heavy makeup, the woman brazenly put her fat hand around the waist of a young man next to her.

Zhong Hongfei turned his face sideways and avoided the road.

“Hey, you look familiar, did I meet you somewhere?” The middle-aged woman stopped in front of him.

“No, you admitted the wrong person,” Zhong Hongfei replied in as calm a voice as possible. He didn’t want to cause unnecessary trouble.

“Sister Cai, let’s go. Isn’t it enough to have me with you?” The young man next to Sister Cai used a baby tone that women would use. At the time, it was not easy to find a person who was willing to provide food to support him. For this reason, he could give up all his dignity and even fear that other men would steal his job.

The woman named Cai Jie pushed him away mercilessly.

“I remember you. You were on the construction site that day. You’re the one who rejected me.” The woman with a little power in her hand looked up and down at her new prey, “At that time, I told everyone to not allow anyone to hire you. I didn’t think you would not come back to find me, and live so well.”

Zhong Hongfei took two steps back, trying to separate from the crowd and leave the place.

A tall man stretched out his hand to push him back. He staggered against the wall, caught off guard, a green crystal core rolled out of his pocket.

The people surrounding him screamed in surprise. On the enclosed island of Ludao, even the first-order crystal core could be regarded as a very precious thing.

“Look, what’s on this guy?”

“It’s a crystal core. He got a crystal core.”

“How can such a poor ghost have a crystal core? He must have stolen it from somewhere. There may be more than one, Sister Cai, let’s search him.”
