Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 857: Stay or Leave
Chapter 857: Chapter 857: Stay or Leave
The few naturally didn’t know why the base leader of S City Base was looking for them. After Sheng Jing brought everyone into a conference room, Wang Liang was called into another room alone.
In the room, Su Jin and Lu Hao were smiling at him warmly. Wang Liang was a bit surprised, then he smiled too.
“Thanks to you this time.”
Su Jin handed Wang Liang a bottle of peach juice, speaking to him as if chatting with a friend.
“I’m also grateful to you guys. I’m finally free.”
Wang Liang replied with a bitter smile. Having witnessed too many things he disagreed with while following Han Yue, he had long wanted to expose the Han family’s dirty secrets.
“What do you plan to do next?”
Lu Hao asked. Although Wang Liang had initially been caught by them, he later helped them many times.
“We’ll see. I’ve never been truly free.”
Wang Liang replied with a smile.
“I heard that the Wei Family from B City is recruiting you. Actually, you could consider staying here at S City Base. Liang Jiuhui is more eager to keep you.”
Su Jin analyzed for Wang Liang. There was no invisibility special ability user in S City Base, and Liang Jiuhui had wanted to keep Wang Liang for a long time. One of today’s purposes was also to persuade Wang Liang on Liang Jiuhui’s behalf.
“Zhao Qinglong and them, they should be staying.”
Wang Liang speculated. Zhao Qinglong and his group, who were just called away, should also be targets of recruitment by S City Base.
“Talents are welcomed everywhere and shouldn’t be put to disgraceful uses.”
Lu Hao stated seriously. Every special ability user was a precious resource in the apocalypse.
“Wang Liang, can you take off your shirt? I mean, the seeds on your back, I can help you remove them.”
Su Jin saw Wang Liang’s surprise and quickly explained.
The seeds they buried in Wang Liang’s back should now be removed; they didn’t plan to control Wang Liang forever.
Wang Liang was a bit surprised, but then he felt relieved. Even when the seeds were on his back, the Heart Talk Team never asked him to do anything particularly difficult.
Moreover, they even saved his life when encountering the zombie cockroach in N City. Now they’re helping to remove the seeds, which means they let go of the fact that he infiltrated the Heart Talk Team villa back then.
“It’ll hurt a bit. I’ll be quick.”
Su Jin said.
The seed she buried was very tiny, not much bigger than a pinhole. Wang Liang only felt a slight sting twice on his back, then no more pain. He couldn’t see Su Jin had already used a wood element healing art to heal his wound.
“Thank you.”
Wang Liang said.
“Stay, you won’t regret it. Your position will be arranged.”
Lu Hao took out a pouch of crystal cores and pushed it to Wang Liang. According to him, the Han family wouldn’t give out crystal cores regularly to these ability users. To prevent them from ’transferring’ or silently leaving for other teams, they issued crystal cores every six months as salary.
Should I stay…
Wang Liang hesitated. Indeed, he appreciated S City Base more, and also…
“Alright, I’ll stay.”
Wang Liang finally decided.
“That’s great. Here you go.”
Su Jin smiled, handing Wang Liang a stack of red cards.
“What is this?”
Wang Liang looked at the large handwritten words on it: Heart Talk Store/Branch Shopping Vouchers?
“We only give these vouchers to friends. With them, you can shop in the two Heart Talk Stores without crystal cores. Otherwise, in this hot weather, gifts won’t last long.”
Su Jin explained with a smile. Now, when Zhang Chuyang delivered the mutated crystal nuclei needed by the Heart Talk Team, Su Jin also gave them these vouchers, which even Wang Zhu said was much more convenient.
Wang Liang wanted to decline, having just received Lu Hao’s crystal cores. However, for the word “friend” from Su Jin, he eventually accepted it.
Zhao Qinglong and his group made the same choice as Wang Liang, willing to stay at S City Base because Liang Jiuhui offered considerable benefits. The dozen of them could form a bounty team to stay here, with two years’ rent reduction, or join the base guard squad to serve the base, enjoying permanent rent reduction plus all welfare and salary benefits.
The group unsurprisingly chose to form a team and stay at S City Base.
“Being under the Han Family’s command for long, we’ve always envied those teams’ freedom. So I want to choose this, the rest of you follow your inclination.”
Zhao Qinglong smiled, saying to Kang Yan, Li Zhang, and the others behind him.
“Same here.”
Kang Yan smiled back.
“Base Leader, thank you for not holding a grudge and being willing to accept us. If the Base Guard Squad doesn’t mind, I’d love to join and serve S City Base.”
Yang Bo had visited S City Base many times and didn’t have any dislike for this base leader. Instead, he always appreciated him. This time, when Han Yue did such a thing, Liang Jiuhui didn’t blame or involve them, proving he was indeed a broad-minded leader, following whom one wouldn’t worry for the rest of their life.
Liang Jiuhui was somewhat surprised; he thought they would all choose to form their own team. However, Yang Bo was now a level six metal element special ability user, and joining the guard squad would undoubtedly be a major asset.
Ultimately, besides Yang Bo, wind element ability user Hang Wenshan also voluntarily joined the base guard squad. The rest, like Zhao Qinglong, planned to form a special ability users’ team and stay at S City Base.
Zhao Qinglong and the others, who were at the top of the Han family’s power list, were all experts among special ability users. Staying at S City Base was all benefit and no harm. After all, even if they returned to B City Base, they’d still have to face all sorts of lingering awkwardness from the Han family days.
Wei Junhao had said that including special ability users who formerly served the Han family, they were experiencing all kinds of cold shoulders and discrimination at B City Base now, truly because the Han family’s reputation was too terrible.
“Welcome to you all. I’m still saying this: S City Base’s common enemy, only the zombies.”
Liang Jiuhui said.
“You indeed differ from any other base leader we’ve met before. I believe we made the right choice.”
Kang Yan expressed before leaving. Yang Bo was an extremely smart person. She believed since Yang Bo was willing to join S City Base’s official side, this must be a good base.
“Hehe, freedom at last.”
Zhao Qinglong stretched lazily while walking down the corridor. Looking at the scorching summer outside, he felt a refreshing breeze inside. No wonder Kou Ning made this choice.
They had just met Wang Liang waiting outside, and Wang Liang also informed them he would join S City Base. So Yang Bo and Hang Wenshan were already with him to complete the onboarding formalities.
“Alright, Ning Ning, bring on our crystal cores, let’s go shopping like crazy at the Heart Talk Store! Do you all have any objections?”
Kang Yan asked. Actually, she had planned to stay here from the beginning because this place had the most tempting Heart Talk Store in the apocalypse.
“No objections, no objections. I’m going to buy a pot of peach juice and drink to my heart’s content.”
Space element ability user Ning Ning immediately replied cheerfully.
