Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot Chapter 980 392: Tampered With2
"..."
"We're leaving tomorrow, you need to hang in there!"
"..."
Seeing these caring words naturally made Wang Tao feel very comfortable.
But Cheng Yiyi talked a bit too much, he wasn't inside the city, and since Cheng Yiyi said so much, he couldn't see it!
Wang Tao checked the ti these ssages were sent, and the ti Cheng Yiyi ntioned about leaving the city to find him was just a few hours later.
Wang Tao hurriedly replied with a voice ssage.
"Commander Cheng, you don't need to co out to find , I've already safely returned ho."
He needed to let Cheng Yiyi know he was back; otherwise, not only would Cheng Yiyi make the trip in vain, but she might also encounter dangers.
After the ssage was sent, there was no reply for a while.
"Are you asleep?"
Wang Tao planned to wait a little longer, and if there was still no response, he would make the trip himself. After all, the Sixth Army Corps wasn't far from here, and it wouldn't take much ti.
Then, Wang Tao checked other ssages.
Aside from Cheng Yiyi, there were ssages from the Secretary-General of City Hall, Gu Yun, forr assistant Cui Sheng who had worked for Wang Tao, prominent figures such as Zhou Long, Huang Wu, and Qi De, Shang Heng of the Fourth Army Corps, and even his old acquaintance Duan Xuchang... Even people from the Sixth Army Corps were there, not Cheng Yiyi but soone he had t during a eting...
"Well, look at that…"
Basically, everyone at Changhe Base who had Wang Tao's contact information had sent him ssages.
Wang Tao looked at each ssage one by one.
Cui Sheng reminded Wang Tao that tomorrow was New Year's Eve and asked about the events Wang Tao had previously promised to attend, and whether he still had ti for them.
"Tomorrow is New Year's Eve? To be precise, New Year's Eve has already arrived…"
Wang Tao was caught off guard, ti really flew by...
He had previously promised City Hall to participate in so events they organized. These events seed to start from New Year's Eve and would last for several days.
If he had missed it, it would have been fine, but since he was back on ti, Wang Tao naturally wouldn't break his promise.
"I'm already back, and I'll prepare to participate in the activities."
Wang Tao replied to Cui Sheng.
Gu Yun's ssage to Wang Tao also ntioned the activities, but the focus was on wanting to purchase Rejuvenation Potion and Iron Beetles from Wang Tao. He said as long as Wang Tao was willing to sell, the price was negotiable.
Zhou Long and others had the sa idea.
Wang Tao's past rule was that one could buy Potions only after investing in the Sixth Army Corps; the more one invested, the more they could buy. This was naturally fine for ordinary people since the Potion did have side effects; they couldn't eat them like candy, and having a few bottles in reserve was enough.
But it was different for people like Gu Yun because they had a lot of people and needed more. Investing in the Sixth Army Corps was okay, but they couldn't invest too much. It wasn't a matter of having the money but also involved so competitive issues.
Thus, they specifically contacted Wang Tao to inquire if he could sell the items separately, even if the price was higher.
Wang Tao was naturally willing to sell, after all, they weren't not paying him.
However, regarding the specific price and quantity, Wang Tao wasn't prepared to negotiate personally, as he wasn't adept at business. People like Yang Changhong, Lan Yulian, and Gao Hua had business experience and were better suited for this than Wang Tao.
As for the Iron Beetles, Wang Tao had two, one with an additional Fire Resistance Ability and one that could spray acid. He could sell the one with Fire Resistance.
The enhancent brought by the Iron Beetles had fairly fixed upper and lower limits. The enhancent was higher for weaker individuals, while for soone as powerful as Wang Tao, it was more optional whether to use it or not.
Of course, the specifics of what price to sell for were left to others to negotiate; Wang Tao would just make the final decision.
After replying to all these ssages, Wang Tao's Informational Wristwatch suddenly showed an incoming voice call, and it was indeed Cheng Yiyi.
"Wang Tao, can you co downstairs and open the door!"
Once connected, he heard Cheng Yiyi's sowhat restrained excited voice.
"..."
As Wang Tao went downstairs, he saw a military SUV driving towards him from a distance.
Squeak—
The vehicle made a sharp stop and steadied right in front of Wang Tao.
Cheng Yiyi, wearing a military uniform, imdiately rushed out and hugged Wang Tao tightly. Then, gripping his arms with so excitent and nervousness, she asked,
"It's so good that you could co back! Aren't you injured, right? And are Jade Lotus and others safe too?"
"Do I look like I'm injured?" Wang Tao shrugged and then smilingly said, "We are all very safe... let's go inside and talk."
Everyone else had gone to sleep, so Wang Tao went to make Cheng Yiyi a cup of hot tea.
Cheng Yiyi held the cup tightly with both hands, her eyes full of gratitude when looking at Wang Tao.
"Seeing you all return safely, I'm relieved! I really don't know how to thank you... if it weren't for you, we might never have been able to return..."
"We are all family here; no need to be so formal,"
Wang Tao said smilingly.
He felt even if he hadn't gone to the rescue, Cheng Yiyi would have had a chance to break through, considering the three Awakeners, including her, were there and not weak. However, how many of their subordinates would have survived was uncertain. Aside from them, it was highly probable that the others would have died...
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yiyi shook her head.
Although she and Wang Tao were indeed close, even real brothers settle accounts. Moreover, this was a matter of saving lives, and it saved many at that; she definitely had to rember this favor.
"I did intend to go find you, but they reminded not to let your efforts be wasted, so I finally ran first…"
