Ye Fan’s actions left the base defenders dumbfounded.
They had seen adventurers fighting before, but firing shots to kill people right in front of the base gates was sothing they had never witnessed.
So defenders hastily loaded their bullets, aiming at Ye Fan.
Ye Fan didn’t let his subordinates act rashly; he simply tidied up his clothes, as if a trivial matter had just occurred.
"I’m talking to you! Don’t move!" The ignored defenders were sowhat furious.
Behind him, in the Fierce Dragon Vehicle, the sniper Zhao Ming already had his head out, aiming his sniper rifle at the defenders.
As long as the defender’s finger showed any sign of pulling the trigger, the Hero-level sniper could take him down before he fired a bullet.
But doing so might lead to a falling out with the defenders.
The reason for coming to the Heavy Truck Corps was that Ye Fan wanted an identity that would allow him to acquire gold openly and facilitate smooth transactions.
Being able to trade smoothly would certainly greatly accelerate the acquisition of gold; otherwise, Ye Fan wouldn’t have bothered coming here.
Just as he was considering whether to give a little sothing to the defender, he heard the sound of a car horn behind him.
Ye Fan’s convoy was blocking the base gate, affecting the entrance and exit of other vehicles.
Ye Fan turned around and saw a returning black rmaid SUV, followed by six or seven large trucks.
A woman inside the rmaid SUV spoke to this side.
"What’s going on? Are you letting people into the city?"
The defender hurried over: "Hey, it turns out Miss Zhao’s convoy is back. It’s not that I wanted to make trouble, but soone just killed all of the Mad Horse Squad outside the base gates and is acting all high and mighty."
The woman took a glance: "Oh, the Mad Horse people got eliminated? Was it inside or outside the base gates?"
"Hmm, outside, just barely outside the gates."
The woman snorted: "Since when did our Heavy Truck Corps defenders turn into philanthropists? Do you also want to handle matters occurring outside the base gates? Or do you want to avenge the Mad Horse Squad?"
The defender paused, feeling choked: "Of course not, it’s mainly that the kid and his group look a bit dangerous... ."
The woman also peeked over at Ye Fan at this mont.
Under the light at the gate, Ye Fan stood with a white cape, hands behind his back, looking quite distinct indeed.
"What’s there to fear about danger? Are we supposed to only let sheep-like appearances into the base? Hurry up and open the gate; don’t waste ti here."
"Alright, alright, I will go and make way for them now."
The defender ran back to Ye Fan’s side: "Hey, do you want to go in or not? Stop blocking the way."
"Nonsense, if you hadn’t stopped us, I’d be inside already. Not only do I want to go in, but I also want to register a squad!"
Since there was a powerful squad waiting at the entrance behind them, the defender couldn’t bother looking for trouble with Ye Fan: "Okay, for squad registration, head to the two-story building on the left. Hurry, don’t waste ti."
Ye Fan called out to his n, and four SUVs and two heavy trucks drove in.
The black rmaid SUV also drove in afterward. As they passed, Ye Fan saw that a woman was sitting in the passenger seat of the SUV.
As the light flickered, the woman’s face appeared very cold and arrogant under the glow.
But her beauty was undeniably top-notch, an extrely rare beauty.
Moreover, Ye Fan keenly sensed that she was also a Level 2 Evolver!
But that wasn’t the most important thing. The most important thing was that Ye Fan realized he had seen this woman before!
It was the woman who appeared on television before he ca!
If it weren’t for seeing this woman, Ye Fan wouldn’t have suddenly decided to co south.
Who would have thought the world is so big, yet so small; he ended up encountering her here!
"This woman is fated to et ," Ye Fan thought to himself, his expression sowhat dazed.
The woman seed to notice Ye Fan’s peculiarity as well and glanced at Ye Fan when passing by.
After the vehicle passed, Shen Ruihui beside Ye Fan said: "Sir, we should go register the squad. This woman is likely very famous in the Heavy Truck Corps. Once you find a chance, be sure to repay her generously."
Ye Fan glanced at Shen Ruihui: "I think our base needs to open a school and have you relearn elentary courses to understand proper word usage."
Shen Ruihui shut his mouth and remained silent.
Ye Fan led his n into the two-story building.
The person responsible for registration was initially unhappy about being roused at night but, upon knowing Ye Fan had dealt with the Mad Horse Squad and that Ye Fan was a Level 2 Evolver, his attitude instantly improved.
The most crucial aspect of squad registration was having an Evolver leader, which Ye Fan fulfilled. The rest involved paying and naming the squad.
Ye Fan’s squad is called the Dawn Squad. In principle, the number of people in the squad has no upper limit; as long as you can recruit people, even over ten thousand is possible.
When paying, the registration fee for the squad is one kilogram of Gold or equivalent goods. Conveniently, Ye Fan currently has two truckloads of goods, and the people responsible for registration sent soone to count and collect the goods Ye Fan and his group were willing to use to cover the fee.
During this process, Ye Fan also learned so things about the Heavy Truck Corps.
There are mainly three forces in the Heavy Truck Corps.
The first, of course, is the Heavy Truck Corps Guard, which is an ard force of nine thousand people with considerable firepower.
Ye Fan analyzed the strength of the Heavy Truck Corps, which is roughly equivalent to the Wangbei Army after they acquired the Rakshasa equipnt.
The Heavy Truck Corps Guard is the primary force here, and the second force belongs to the Comrce Association.
The identities of the mbers of the Comrce Association are sowhat special.
The leader of the Heavy Truck Corps is Mu Haiyang, who was forrly a mber of the Penglai Comrce Association.
When the apocalypse struck, the mbers of the Penglai Comrce Association were gathered in the Shannan Tourism District for a eting.
It was not a small gathering but a large one with many employees, essentially a collective outing, with plans for a bonfire at night.
After the apocalypse hit, three thousand people from the Penglai Comrce Association survived.
Moreover, these people stayed together, forming a strong force.
At that ti, Mu Haiyang was a mber of the association. He didn’t have the largest number of subordinates, but he was the only one among the main mbers of the association to beco an Evolver.
Mu Haiyang wanted to align the association’s power to serve his purposes, so he began lobbying the other bigwigs of the association.
The others, of course, did not want to submit obediently, leading to discussions, and they eventually reached a conclusion.
The mbers of the association recognized Mu Haiyang as the leader and ford the Heavy Truck Corps, but they retained special privileges.
By fully supporting Mu Haiyang, they would enjoy privileges within the Heavy Truck Corps and beco nobility there.
They would have priority in enjoying good things, have their pick of won, and even have impunity for killing, among other privileges.
In fact, each mber was allowed to have a hundred personal ard followers to act as their enforcers.
These people are a cancer within the Heavy Truck Corps, but without their support, the Heavy Truck Corps could not have reached its current status.
Because of their support, Mu Haiyang’s Heavy Truck Corps was able to rise rapidly and beco a major force in the Luqi Province region.
Therefore, the Comrce Association is the second major force within the Heavy Truck Corps.
The third force is the Adventurer Squads.
Much of the Heavy Truck Corps’ collection work is done by the Adventurer Squads, while the Guard is primarily responsible for city defenses.
Adventurers are quite prominent among the civilian population, with their influence spreading to every corner of the base, and their strength honed through battles with zombies, so even those in the Comrce Association are unwilling to offend those powerful squads.
For example, the top-ranked Rock Squad, led by Lawson, who is now a powerful Level 2 Evolver, possesses unparalleled strength and has tough, bulletproof skin, earning him the nickna Giant Stone Lawson.
His squad now has more than four hundred mbers, making it the strongest squad here.
The second-ranked squad is called Dark Night Rose, led by Zhao Xiaoman, who is also a Level 2 Evolver; her abilities are even more impressive. It is said that during the apocalypse, she was electrocuted, not only becoming a speed-type Evolver but also gaining the ability to control electric currents for attacks.
Dark Night Rose also has three hundred mbers, including many won.
Ye Fan saw a photo of the woman nad Zhao Xiaoman, who apparently was the one who inadvertently helped him at the gate, and whom he had seen briefly on television.
This also indicates that the Heavy Truck Corps might have taken over the TV station, although their technical skills are not yet mature enough to fully restore broadcast service.
The third-ranking is the Half-Day Cloud Squad, led by Jiang Jun, a quite brutal Level 2 Evolver, known for wanton killings and misdeeds; the Mad Horse Squad would seem like a child in front of him.
The Mad Horse Squad ranks only in the mid-to-low tier here, amid a total of fifty or sixty squads within the Heavy Truck Corps.
After Ye Fan registered the Dawn Squad, the registrar asked Ye Fan if he needed a plot of land in the Trading Market to set up a stall.
This was obviously needed, as Ye Fan intended to trade for Gold.
After paying a small fee, the registrar pointed out a spot for Ye Fan and handed him a certificate.
"This area officially belongs to you from today. The trading market opens at eight o’clock every morning; you can go directly there," he said.
Ye Fan entrusted Zhuge Yunxue with the certificate for safekeeping, and the person inford him that renting accommodation was an option if he wanted to live here.
Ye Fan rented a standalone small building, paying a month’s rent upfront; he might leave here after a month.
After settling all these matters, it was already very late, and Ye Fan led his people to the small building he had rented.
There were still so goods in the vehicle, ready to be taken out for trading the next morning.
Exhausted from a day’s work, Ye Fan lay down to rest.
The news about the Mad Horse Squad being wiped out quietly spread throughout the area.
The newcors, who dared to open fire in front of the garrison, killing the Mad Horse Squad at the base gate, seed to be a formidable group.
