Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 412 - 412 412 The Right Team
Chapter 412: Chapter 412: The Right Team Chapter 412: Chapter 412: The Right Team “Humph, Mercenary Corps assessment, with big brother here, I must secure an S-rank for you all,”
Han Xiao said with a confident tone.
However, apart from Ye Shuai and Ouyang, no one else took his words seriously anymore. After spending so many days together, everyone knew what kind of personality Han Xiao had; his only real talent was probably his ability to talk big!
“Hey, don’t doubt me, guys. I am a Level Four Water Element now, and at this level, I can certainly have a say in the base, alright?”
Han Xiao tried to persuade the people beside him.
Yin Qiu rolled his eyes. He wanted to say that his Level Four Water Element wasn’t as powerful as Jian Zongzheng’s Level Three Metal Element, but thinking about how that guy would surely respond with a hundred arguments if he objected, he decided to remain silent.
“Someone’s coming,”
Jian Zongzheng warned, hearing the sound of a vehicle in the distance.
The others nodded and began to stay alert.
Lately, more and more people had been arriving at the base, and incidents of Crystal Core theft were frequent, with the culprits often wearing masks. Those robbed could return safely to the base but could not identify who the thieves were, nor could they be sure if those people were even from the S City base.
After a while, a beige minibus came into their view. Jian Zongzheng relaxed a bit, having heard that the group responsible drove a black van, so this one was likely not them.
It seemed that there were quite a few people in that minibus, but Anna and the others didn’t look closely since staring into someone else’s vehicle was somewhat impolite.
Squeak~
The minibus actually stopped right in front of them.
Even Han Xiao stopped his playful teasing and became alert, wondering if Mr. Jian actually predicted correctly.
Anna thought she saw a familiar figure inside the vehicle and indeed, when the door opened, they were surprised to see the long-missed Su Jin stepping out, followed by Lu Hao and their family members.
“Su Jin, you’re finally back!”
Anna was so excited she almost jumped, having worried that Su Jin and Lu Hao might have been poached by another base.
“Long time no see,” Su Jin said with a smile.
Seeing these familiar faces reminded her of the S City base, which was why she had the driver stop the car so that she could come out to say hello; it looked like they would reach the base by today.
“It’s good to be back, really good. You wouldn’t believe how many people at the base have been waiting for you all to return,”
Zhang Xiaoai added from the side.
Lin Xiuyuan felt like saying of course they knew many at the base were waiting for their return, but he decided to wisely keep his mouth shut.
“What about you all? Did you finish today’s tasks?” Su Jin changed the subject.
“We… can’t do tasks for now, we lack enough members, so we aren’t able to accept any tasks,”
Jian Zongzheng answered with a sigh.
Han Xiao noticed that after so many days without seeing Su Jin and her group, Su Jin seemed even prettier, especially with the high ponytail she wore today, the long, abundant hair draping behind her back making her seem youthful and lively.
But… the glare Lu Hao gave from the side was sharp like a knife, making Han Xiao dare not look any further.
Yikes, don’t I even have the right to admire a beautiful girl?
Anna and the others also inquired about Xia Mufei and Xia Ying from Su Jin, as it seemed previously that Xia Mufei had a good relationship with Su Jin’s family. However, Su Jin could only say she didn’t know.
“How many more people do you need?” Su Jin suddenly remembered Zhang Chuyang and Wang Zhu inside the car.
“One person, though we’d love more if possible, it’s just unfortunate we haven’t found the right ones,”
Jian Zongzheng answered.
Su Jin nodded thoughtfully, then said to the others, “I have a friend who is a Level Five Speed Element and another who is a Level Three Space Element. I’ll ask their opinions for you later,”
Level Five? Speed Element?
And a Space Element that they had always envied in other teams?
Jian Zongzheng and Anna’s eyes lit up, knowing Su Jin’s friends must mean they’re credible!
“Cough cough, Su Jin, we really hope they can join. Plus, Xia Mufei and Xia Ying’s room has been vacant, they can stay there for free for two years,”
Zhang Xiaoai said excitedly.
“Exactly, exactly, we can also provide free water and electricity, just as long as they come, they can move in right away,”
Yin Qiu, who usually spoke little, chimed in.
Su Jin couldn’t make decisions for Zhang Chuyang and Wang Zhu, but hearing that Anna and the others could provide accommodations, he felt it was quite suitable for the two men, especially since Wang Zhu had been searching for his wife at a slow pace.
“They’re right in our car, how about I go and ask them? But I can’t guarantee the result,”
Su Jin replied with a smile.
“Okay, thanks, we appreciate it,” Jian Zongzheng said sincerely.
Zhang Chuyang and Wang Zhu were surprised to hear Su Jin’s words.
The two had been wondering what to do after arriving at the base. Although they had enough Crystal Cores to rent a place, having a ready accommodation and someone to explain the base’s affairs to them would be really convenient.
“We’re willing,”
Wang Zhu replied without hesitation, trusting people that Su Jin knew.
Zhang Chuyang, nodding like pounding garlic, spotted Jian Zongzheng and his group not far away; they looked agreeable, and they needed a team, but…
Why did those three people on the side look both scared and expectant?
Seeing Wang Zhu heading down from the car, Zhang Chuyang quickly followed.
Anna and her group had never thought that they would be so lucky today. These two men, one steady and the other naive, seemed much stronger than the three huddled together.
“Hello, welcome to our team,”
Jian Zongzheng said with a smile after knowing the two had agreed, while Han Xiao and the others edged behind Jian Zongzheng, curiously sizing up the two men.
Level Five Speed Element, huh? Which one of these two is it?
It must be the one who looks a bit older, right?
Wang Zhu also smiled and introduced himself to Jian Zongzheng: “Hello, I’m Wang Zhu, Level Three Space Element”
“…”
So they had never gotten their evaluation right?
“Hello, I’m Zhang Chuyang, Level Five Speed Element,”
Zhang Chuyang also stepped forward and said.
Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up, a real Level Five Speed Element!!
“You’re amazing! We don’t even have a Level Five Speed Element in our base,”
Anna exclaimed.
“Heh, heh, not really, just escaped with my life…”
Zhang Chuyang ruffled his disheveled hair, still unaccustomed to such praise, especially from a girl.
