Apocalypse Arrival - chapter 206

Although the mercenary group stood on their side on the battlefield and helped them win the war. But everyone present at the time was shocked by the powerful combat power displayed by this team that had just arrived on Ludao.

Seeing the young mercenaries stepping past them, they couldn’t help thinking in their hearts, were they really weak? Were the ability holders from outside already so powerful?

Fu Jianjun greeted them and clenched Chu Qianxun’s hands with both hands, “I have always wanted to thank you face to face, and I finally have the opportunity today.”

“No need to be polite.”

“I won’t say anything much. I just want to tell you that Ludao Base will always welcome strong people and teams like you.”

Fu Jianjun and Chu Qianxun stood side by side on the edge of the ruins.

Watching the sunlight that just crossed the horizon, penetrated through the row upon row of city buildings.

Piles of billowing smoke rose from all over the ground.

“This city survived the catastrophe when the demons came, but it was almost destroyed in the battle between humans.” Fu Jianjun looked at the huge wall in the distance, “I grew up near here. I wanted to build the base better and more solid, and provide a shelter for all the surviving compatriots. Thank you, you gave me a chance.”

Chu Qianxun looked at the man who was more than half a hundred years old next to her. His temples were gray, but his body was tall and straight, his posture was standard, and his eyes were firm.

This was a man who deliberately took the safety of the island on his shoulders.

“In this era, whether it is for individuals or the entire base, excessive sheltering can only cause complete destruction,” Chu Qianxun spoke.

Fu Jianjun turned to look at her, with a little surprise in his eyes.

“We came from outside,” Chu Qianxun said without evasiveness, “Outside the island, no matter how small the gathering place, almost everyone will participate in the hunting operation. The Qilin Base we passed by, the size and the population is less than one-tenth of Ludao Island, but the ranks and combat abilities of the ability holders are even higher than here. They live in fear of being attacked by demons every day, and never dared to slacken to improve.”

Fu Jianjun frowned deeply.

“Not only the ability holders, but the demons are constantly getting stronger. As far as I know, the fifth-order demons have appeared on the mainland. The residents of our island, including some ability holders, have not even reached the second-order.”

“You are right!” Fu Jianjun was silent for a moment then said, “So, I always hope to attract more powerful people like you to settle in Ludao.”

“Ease is the tomb of all the strong. We won’t stay here forever. Within a few days, we will leave for the Magic City. Maybe it will take a few months, maybe we won’t come back until the end of the year.”

The girl in front of him was confident, determined, and fearless. Fu Jianjun finally knew why such a young woman could possess such powerful combat skills.

“You are right, I will take it to heart.”

At the station of the Leiyun Corps, Meng Rongxuan walked into the station gate without a word with a calm face.

Although Meng Rongxuan had a powerful ability, anyone who knew him well knew that he had a very good temper and rarely looked so gloomy.

Although the boss said before that they should remain neutral and not participate in the internal battle of the base, they also selected the right camp the previous night and assisted Fu Jianjun to win. It should be celebrated. The members did not know why Meng Rongxuan was angry.

“Lao Meng, wait for me!” He Wenxing came in behind him, “Lao Meng, Lao Meng? Meng Rongxuan!”

Meng Rongxuan stopped.

“Why were you so impulsive today? Haven’t you told us not to participate in any form of internal fighting?” 

Meng Rongxuan suddenly participated in the battle, making He Wenxing unable to do anything.

Meng Rongxuan stopped and clenched his fists, “Wen Xing, do you think I am particularly stupid?”

“What do you mean?”

“You were fooling me intentionally. There was going to be such a movement in the base. With your personality, it is impossible that you did not hear about it.”

“Lao Meng, what nonsense are you talking about?” He Wenxing was a little flustered, but his voice rose by an octave, “For a woman, you just doubt your brother like this?!”

Meng Rongxuan looked at him disappointedly, and after a long while, he gave an order to the members around him.

The mother and son were brought up.

“Tell me again, why did Qianxun cut off your finger and occupy your villa?” Meng Rongxuan sat down on a chair.

The young woman’s eyes moved, she clenched the corner of her clothes, and whispered, “Should I repeat it again?”

Meng Rongxuan didn’t look up, “You get only one chance, if you tell the truth, I will let go of you and your son. If you lie, I promise you won’t have a foothold on Ludao from now on.”

The face of the young woman turned pale, as if considering the reliability of Meng Rongxuan’s words. She was not familiar with him, but was very afraid of his title as the  legendary first powerful man.

“I did something bad, but that woman is really too fierce.” She glanced at He Wenxing, “This person gave me two packs of instant noodles and asked me to come to you to say these things.”

He Wenxing was furious, and he was about to hit her as he raised his hand, but his wrist was firmly grasped by a strong palm.

Meng Rongxuan, the good man who could easily be fooled in his mind, looked at him indifferently, “When I arrived at Ludao, I was already a second-order ability holder. Everyone treated me very well and was full of goodwill.” 

Meng Rongxuan’s palm flashed an electric arc from time to time, “Especially you, both passionate and thoughtful. I also became your friend. No matter what you said, I rarely doubted it.”

“Yes, yes, Lao Meng, we are brothers, why do you believe in the woman of Heart of Winter, but don’t believe me?” He Wenxing was completely panicked, he wanted to pull out his wrist, but the strength of the hand holding his wrist was infinite.

“But you don’t know, when I was weak and incompetent, there was only malice around me, but there was only one person who extended a kind hand to me. Who do you think I should trust?” Meng Rongxuan let go of He Wenxing’s hand, “Go, I’ll pretend as if I had never made a friend like you.”
