Every Samsara member had to participate in this mission unconditionally. Although not everyone was willing to go to a base where the situation was unknown, they have been tightly tied together since the end of the world, living and struggling as one. Everyone might have their own emotions, but for survival, for the feelings that have lasted since the end of the world, these two dozen individuals held on to each other, never separating, and operating as one.

After the task was announced, Zhang Xiaoming surreptitiously asked Chen Ning: “If we put everything away, including cars, will the people on base suspect us?”

The two space abilities of their team were forcibly requisitioned. When they leave for the mission tomorrow, they must ensure that the space is empty and can only be filled with the backup materials provided by the base. However, the vehicles, furniture, and food that shouldn’t be taken away from the base, if they disappear, won’t it definitely be suspicious?

Chen Ning hooked the corner of his mouth and sneered: “Do you think you if we obediently keep these things here, they will obediently remain until we return?”

Seeing Zhang Xiaoming’s dazed expression, Chen Ning raised his hand and knocked on his forehead: “These are our own things, why not bring it? If we are in danger along the way and have a car in our hands, we can still run.”

God knows how far they will go this time on this mission? Before the apocalypse, it already takes two days to walk from the suburban area to reach the city, let alone traveling to SH city?

If they leave these things to avoid people’s doubt, the base may not care about their villa for a month or two, but after a long time… Even if the base does not pay attention, who can guarantee that other informed teams will not have any thoughts?

And if things are not good along the way… these things are life-saving things. Even if everyone fails to survive in the end, it is better than cheap people who are greedy and calculate them behind their backs.

In this regard, He Zizhong and Fang Hao had the same considerations as Guo Bing and them. After learning that the military required everyone to take a military vehicle and operate in unified operations, they discussed with the Samsara team and put anything useful in the space to take with them.

The vast majority of the members of the Samsara team didn’t sleep well this night. Only He Zizhong and Fang Hao slept peacefully – naturally, those with a backhand are better.

What will happen during this mission, what they will encounter, and whether it’s possible to reach SH city smooth… these are questions people have at the bottom of their hearts. However, when everyone gathered and waited to board the military vehicle in the morning of the next day, they found that they still underestimated many situations.

—For example, they met some “acquaintances”.

They saw Yin Dong, who was holding his glasses in the waiting line, then Xu Lili, who was reluctantly approaching with a black face exuding an uncomfortable aura, and then a few familiar squad leaders in the crowd. Guo Bing represented Samsara, and He Zizhong represented him and Fang Hao, and chuckled “haha” in their hearts.

Apart from the soldiers who fled from SH city to seek help from the base, the people on this mission were mostly scattered teams, ability holders, and an elite team comprised of the special forces from the base.

He Zizhong stood with the Samsara team and looked around. He saw the Starry Sky boss with his family members, in addition to some other teams that were also on the mission to northwest arsenal mission.

Fang Hao quietly squeezed his hand and gestured in a certain direction. He Zizhong looked over and saw his cousin pulling a young man who was obviously a base military official, acting like a baby.

There was a chill in his heart, and the two exchanged helpless eyes. With his cousin on the road, this trip should be very lively, right?

It’s not that the two of them didn’t think about wearing sunglasses and a mask, but now that everyone is very normal, if they wear these things deliberately… it’s likely Xu Lili will be able to recognize them at once.

They didn’t know what Xu Lili was saying to that person. He Zizhong only recognized him when the person who was talking to her turned around and walked over here – it was the person who captured Allen before and was called Wu Shao.

Wu Shao’s face was extremely ugly as he stood in front of the team and said with a dark face. “All stand! Stand according to the teams I shared before, do you still want your stuff?!”

He rushed down here very angrily yelling at people, making the complexions of the group of ability users who have seen blood and fought outside the base plenty of times, change. It doesn’t matter if the base uses them as coolies and they’re forced to go a task. Who makes them have guns? But being yelled at by a half-grown kid who doesn’t even know how to drink – will they be bullied?

“Who the fuck are you? Can you speak human words!”

“Look at this person, don’t know if they’re weaned yet.”

“Yeah, still taking a woman on this mission. Isn’t he afraid of kidney deficiency on the way?”

Wu Shao’s expression became even more intense. After his face darkened by three points, he raised his hand, and a soil thorn appeared on the ground, stabbing at the person standing in the front who had just yelled and scolded him.

The person was surprised at first, and raised his hand randomly. He was also an earth ability user!

The dirt wall easily blocked the soil thorn’s attack. The man was stunned for a moment before he laughed: “A level 1 ability, aren’t you embarrassed?”

The ragtag group of ability users laughed and jeered, not showing Wu Shao any respect.

Although due to the limitation of the number of crystal nuclei, most people were still at level 1, because most of them are combatants who often go out to fight, they have strong combat experience. Wu Shao, this second generation young master, who was stuck inside the base, was not on the same level as them at all.

Therefore, everyone can estimate his accuracy, speed, and level when he uses an ability. Rumor is there are ways to inspire abilities in the base, and this young master should be someone who had his abilities stimulated? He has no actual combat experience, and is not even as powerful as those in the base who pile up crystal nuclei to level up.

Wu Shao’s face was even more ugly. His ability was just triggered before the mission, and was already behind many others. If it weren’t for the Song family… how would he be forced to participate this time? There is no time to upgrade!

The group of ability people don’t care one whit why he came over to show his might. Who made his mouth so stinky just now?

Don’t know who it was, but someone threw a water ball that seemed to narrowly miss, but then turned around and patted Wu Shao on the side of his face!

“Sii-” With a loud noise, the water polo met a fire net that appeared out of thin air and disappeared.

A young officer walked over from the back: “Everyone, group up.”

A second-level ability. This person was similar to the previous Wu Shao, but the pressure on everyone was completely different – he is a person who has seen blood.

Coming to a conclusion in their hearts, the group of ability users fell silent, and coldly looked at the angry Wu Shao.

Wu Shao’s face was still dark. Finally, he sneered, folding his arms in front his chest and stood fo the side. As for Xu Lili, who was beside him, she had a hesitant look, wondering whether she should be next to Wu Shao or return to the team.

“You, join the team.” The young man glanced at Xu Lili. She pressed her lips tightly, and glanced at Wu Shao. Seeing him refuse to pay attention, she hatefully walked to the group of ability people.

“I am Yan Xin, the temporary captain in charge of this mission, and this is the deputy captain Wu Geng1Recall, the “Shao” in Wu Shao is a title. Similar to Mr or Miss. In this case, Shao = young master. Wu Geng is his real name..” Yan Xin scanned the group. “In a moment, everyone will be divided into teams on different vehicles. Everyone has to obey commands on the road. Anyone who acts without authorization and does not obey will be dealt with in accordance with military regulations. Whether it is us, or you ability teams participating in this mission, everyone is looking forward to a peaceful completion and successful return. If anyone looks for trouble on the way-” A glimmer of cold light flashed as he spoke, “Offenders will be dealt with harshest punishments.”

If it was the previous Wu Shao speaking such thing, the group wouldn’t have given him face, and it’s possible for them to protest on the spot. But… although this Yan Xin person was equally young, the bloody aura he carries, his decisiveness when he appeared, and his masterful use of abilities are far beyond the second generation ancestor.

After Yan Xin finished speaking, another non-commissioned officer took a list and walked to the front of the team to start the roll call.

Fortunately, He Zizhong and Fang Hao were assigned to the same car as Guo Bing and them. There were three groups on this truck, namely three squads, with more than 30 people forming a platoon. In addition to Samsara and Fengche, there were some other teams. What made people 囧 was that Yin Dong, the deputy captain of the original Overlord team, and several members of Overlord were also present.

He Zizhong and them have been relatively busy recently, and Samsara was being watched previously, so they don’t have time to inquire, let alone gossip about base happenings. As such, they didn’t know much about Overlord’s current situation. Seeing most of the members were gathered next to Yin Dong – after Allen’s death, the team should belong to him, right?

Of the three groups, the members of the Samsara accounted for two, and the rest were merged into a third team, with Yin Dong as captain.

Looking at the two squads, one is in charge of Guo Bing and the other is managed by Chen Ning, it doesn’t matter and is understandable if the third squad is handed over to Yin Dong. The only problem now is – He Zizhong and Fang Hao were assigned to the third group.

Guo Bing looked at the pair uneasily, before being pulled over by Chen Ning to take over the documents sent by their superiors. Although Guo Bing and them are squad leaders of their respective squads, the person in charge of the same car is not one of them, but a non-commissioned officer sent by the military responsible for commanding and dispatching the platoon.

Fang Hao looked around while the supervisors were meeting, and gently pulled He Zizhong’s sleeve. “Xu Lili is in the logistics group.”

 

I’d be 囧 if I was grouped with Overlord. Least Allen is gone, and Yin Dong is rational…
