Chapter 432: Chapter 279: Dowry (Part 2)
Su Huan spoke indifferently.
Standing behind him, Shu Wei’s expression changed slightly, and she moved forward to whisper a few words in the conductor’s ear.
The background of Donghuang Heavy Industry is much stronger than that of Black Kite, so after the organization disappeared, it also took on the responsibility of connecting various major forces.
The so-called Donghuang Alliance is not an alliance of forces.
It is a list of forces.
Only major forces are qualified to be on this list, achieving a transparency effect to avoid two major forces from rashly forming enmity due to lack of insight into each other’s background and igniting real conflict.
Of course, if there are real conflicts of interest, fighting is inevitable.
With the current strength of the Ard Train, joining this list is more than adequate.
So under Su Huan’s pressure, they thought to take the opportunity to invite Su Huan into the alliance.
Su Huan’s expression softened slightly, "Is that so? However, without so genuine resources, it’s hard for
to proceed. You might want to consider it first."
The woman’s expression turned bitter as she looked at her companion.
The Gunfire trio spoke up before Su Huan could inquire, "We’re simply here to trade. As long as you provide us with evolutionary materials, Pan-energy Crystals, firearms, weapons, food, clean water, won, vodka... we have it all, ready for trade."
Shu Wei whispered, "Their end-of-the-world intensity is low, correspondingly, evolutionary materials are scarce, so they’re known for loving trade. As long as you pay, they’ll sell even their daughters."
Su Huan remained noncommittal.
Because his ho is from the north, he understands Mao Bear quite well.
They’re not straightforward; it’s just that the weather is too cold, with half their brain frozen like an ice ball, and the other half swaying with vodka.
Regarding them, he doesn’t feel any particular dislike but also doesn’t exhibit any particular preference.
If they were as clean as they claid, how could they send three Tier Two individuals on a long journey into Donghuang territory?
"I don’t need basic supplies. I want your entire evolutionary system from Gunfire."
"Friend, that’s not for sale."
Yuri crossed his arms, frowned, and said.
Su Huan leaned in, "Not selling, but exchanging, trade you three for it."
"You don’t even know where our Gunfire headquarters is."
Yuri said carelessly.
"I know!"
The woman from Donghuang Heavy Industry quickly took out a sheet of paper from her pocket and ran over to hand it over.
"This lists the general radiation range of various major forces. The center position is likely their headquarters."
Su Huan pinched the paper between two fingers, glanced at it, then shook it towards Yuri.
He smiled, "When the ti cos, I’ll take the train to your headquarters for a visit."
Yuri’s face turned sowhat stiff. He was a bit reckless but not foolish; he knew better than anyone what consequences would entail letting a terrifying guy like Su Huan into headquarters.
It would be a complete disaster.
"The full set might be impossible, but we can discuss it..."
...
Five minutes ago, during the final siege against Black Kite Special Service on the front lines by the Ard Train, a dying counterattack forcibly tore open a breach, causing significant soldier losses.
After all, war is not a re comparison of paper data.
Ultimately, it falls on the struggle over each trench and the pulling of each squad.
He Jie’s injury and Xiaoba’s exit gave Black Kite a breather, and the opponent seized this rare opportunity to launch a frantic counterattack.
"Target alive at four o’clock direction!"
"Armored vehicle, advance!"
"Scatter! Scatter!"
The chaotic shouts mixed with the rumble of armored vehicle engines flooded his ears.
Qi Zhenbang felt like his ears were deaf, needing every sound to be repeated two or three tis.
Just now a grenade jolted him; if there hadn’t been a soldier ahead to shield him a bit, he’d already be gone. When he finally dragged that brother back, he found shrapnel had pierced through his head, utterly unsalvageable.
At this mont, he held an assault rifle in his hands, wore a heavy bulletproof vest, and hid in a muddy trench, with wounds on his shoulder and thigh continually sapping warmth from his body.
Calling it a trench is really a drainage channel in a park carved by rainwater, then blasted by shells, turning into a pit over a ter deep.
Roaring rainwater rushed beneath his feet, making him feel like a rat in the sewer.
Maybe the grenade scrambled his brain.
His mind was now unfocused intensely.
Out of nowhere, he started feeling grateful to the old sergeant who always pushed him for promotions, rembering those nerve-racking, hard days, realizing the drainage channel was not unbearable.
At least, it was better than eating swill, frozen potatoes, muck digging, bare-handed...
He shouldn’t be suffering this much.
Yet, Iron Old Man feared he wouldn’t be trained well enough, placed him in the most remote regint, hid all family background, and rigorously trained him for two years, making him extrely resistant to enlisting, even if Iron Old Man urged repeatedly, he was determined to return ho.
Becoming the shortest-serving in his family.
As if destined, his elder brother stayed at the refuge, second brother stayed at Tide Watching Island, and inexplicably he was left on the train by Iron Old Man, naturally involved in the Black Kite combat mission as a Private in the Ard Corps.
Listening to the nearby encroaching sound of wheels and caterpillar tracks roaring.
Qi Zhenbang smiled bitterly.
’Father, oh father...finally this ti I’ve been utterly trapped by you.’
’Not really, mainly my luck was too poor, even with favorable odds on my side, I managed to get onto the casualty list.’
’No idea how far the train can go in this turmoil.’
He might have been mistaken, but he heard a particularly heavy footstep.
Overpowering the gunfire and engine roars.
Like walking on war drums, crushing down on everyone’s heart.
"So much effort to hit the fallen, He Jie, tsk tsk..."
Along with the mischievous voice, terrifying lightnings swiftly arrived from afar, enveloping the entire park.
Whether advancing armored vehicles or cautious Black Kite Special Service hiding behind trees, all were frozen like specins under the lightning.
Qi Zhenbang curiously tapped the water, finding the lightning slipped away along with it without causing him any harm.
He propped himself up to stand from the drainage channel.
Looking up, he saw a group descending from the theater on the mountain top.
The leading figure had hands in pockets, black hair entwined with threads of lightning, an eerily handso face, and piercing blue eyes gazing at him from afar.
Like two cold flas in the dark!
"Conductor!"
Qi Zhenbang was montarily lost.
When he appeared, all past grievances and frictions were cast aside.
An inexplicable sense of security seeped into his bones.
Without danger, the conductor is the greatest threat, yet in the face of danger, the conductor is the greatest safety!
"Psh, with your level, I can’t promise to safely deliver your cargo."
From afar, Su Huan’s sharp words floated into his ears.
Qi Zhenbang crawled out of the channel, intending to showcase his bravery, yet realized that with Su Huan’s arrival, the war had quietly ended.
Facing soone of Su Huan’s level as an Evolver, numbers were rendered aningless.
Not just them, even a collection of Tier Two from the theater posed no trouble to Su Huan.
Tier Two Energy Storage Core
Tier Two Fighting Expert, symbolizes the pinnacle of energy and physicality.
All those extres combined together, precariously yielded a monstrous figure like Su Huan.
Moreover, his Energy Storage Core was nearing Tier Three.
Thus, Mr. Shu admitted the war indemnity honestly.
...
"Giving him these resources ans your position as director isn’t secure anymore."
Wang Yi spoke coldly.
Mr. Shu stood outside the theater, watching the rolling lightning below.
He turned to see his ex-wife’s face illuminated in striking blue, and suddenly laughed, "Even with one-tenth less, I’m not sure I survive the company’s internal backlash."
Wang Yi paused, "Facing death, you can still laugh?"
Mr. Shu gently shook his head, his voice softened as if making vows to Wang Yi back in the auditorium.
"Let’s consider it a dowry for the little one."
