Chapter 1258: She’s the Best Person for the Job
“Yes, my n t three of them, all of whom acted alone, unlike the herds on Earth’s surface. All three of them were at or above level-seven,” Lan Lu nodded and said with a serious look.
His words made the other two glance at each other and wear a serious look as well.
All three creatures that Lan Lu’s n t were at level-seven or even above. His n didn’t reach the bottom of the underground world, aning that stronger creatures might exist deeper underground. Monsters at level eight or even nine could exist down there. The team which would be sent underground this ti could very likely be unable to co back. At the very least, it would be a very dangerous mission.
“So this ti, I think the people that we’re going to send down there have to be at level-six at least. You two should think carefully about whom to send. Make sure they’re at level-six or higher. It would be even better if they have so special life-saving skills,” Lan Lu thought for a mont and then gave a suggestion.
Recalling what had happened to Yuan Tianxing, Lin Qiao said, “Apart from dangerous creatures, there might also be so poisonous gas or liquid, or other natural traps down there.”
Wu Chengyue spread his hands and said, “At least one level-eight person should be leading the team. But currently, there are only four level-eight ones. How do you think we can make Si Kongchen lead the team himself?”
Three of the four level-eight ones were now sitting in Lin Qiao’s room. Making Si Kongchen lead the team himself was not likely to happen. He was not stupid enough to leave his base unprotected under the eyes of the other three level-eight people. After all, the current situation was pretty obvious that Lan Lu, Lin Qiao, Wu Chengyue were all on the sa side.
Huaxia Base had so many secrets. Without him staying in the base and guarding them personally, those secrets might not stay secret.
“He won’t go no matter what. For him, the underground mission isn’t important, neither is the eting after the mission ends. What’s really important is his secret plan,” Lin Qiao gave a cold smile as she pointed out the truth straightforwardly.
Lan Lu looked at her and said curiously, “Do you know about his secret plan?”
Lin Qiao replied, “I think his plan will be to target or Wu Chengyue. It’s not gonna have anything to do with you guys.”
Earlier today, Lin Qiao saw Si Kongchen at the eting. She wasn’t able to read his mind, but from the look in his eyes, she could tell that he did have so kind of secret plan under the cover of the grand eting this ti. She could also feel that his target would be her or Wu Chengyue.
Wu Chengyue smilingly glanced at her, then said, “Whatever plan he has, we have nothing to be afraid of.” If Si Kongchen dared to make a move, they would just deal with it.
Lan Lu smiled and said, “Chief Wu, you sound confident. I guess you two are already fully prepared, aren’t you?”
“Of course!” Wu Chengyue also smiled, “Si Kongchen’s purpose is so obvious. We are surely prepared. So Chief Lan, other than your discovery from underground, do you have anything else to say to us?”
“No,” Lan Lu paused briefly when he heard the last few words Wu Chengyue said, then realized that the latter was signaling for him to leave. He thought for a mont and then continued, “Since Si Kongchen is not gonna take part in the mission, which one of us do you think is the most suitable for the job?”
Lan Lu was not a fighter. His spirit power might allow him to grasp every detail underground, but it wouldn’t be as useful as Lin Qiao’s powers. Also, his body was relatively fragile. If he encountered so kind of creature that was spirit-power-proof, he wouldn’t even be able to run for his life.
“I have spirit power. As you know, I’m weak. I’m afraid I won’t be able to protect the entire team in the underground world, so you guys can stop looking at ,” he spread his hands and said frankly.
Wu Chengyue looked at him, then at Lin Qiao.
Currently, all three in the room believed that Lin Qiao was the most suitable one for the job. She was a zombie, possessing poisonous fire and a space. She wouldn’t need to worry about her own safety at all. Wu Chengyue was powerful too, but his lightning power could be too destructive. With even a slight carelessness, he might end up burying the whole team and those underground creatures together in the earth.
As the two n turned to her simultaneously, Lin Qiao said, “I’m fine with it. I’d like to see if there’s really an unimaginable space underground like you said.”
She was indeed curious about what made so many underground creatures co up to the earth’s surface. After hearing what Lan Lu said, she started to believe the existence of the underground world. If it didn’t exist, where did all those weird creatures from? The ergence of huge numbers of underground creatures didn’t seem like sothing that could happen within a short ti.
Lan Lu smiled. Unlike him, Wu Chengyue seed to struggle a little.
“What’s wrong? Are you worried about Miss. Lu’s safety? I think she’s much better at self-protecting as you are. So, she has a better chance to co back from the underground world alive than we do.” Seeing the smile on Wu Chengyue’s face fade, Lan Lu said to him jokingly.
One important part of the underground mission was for people to stay alive and bring back their discovery. As base leaders, Wu Chengyue and Lan Lu both took the big picture as their first priority when they thought about the mission. However, Wu Chengyue was not very happy to let his girlfriend carry the dangerous mission. Lan Lu was right though, as she was the most suitable person for the job.
If he himself carried the mission instead of her, she might have to deal with Si Kongchen’s sche. That would be dangerous too.
Lin Qiao was confident about protecting herself. After all, her zombie body and her space were her double insurance. Her body was stronger than the bodies of human beings by many tis over. Her power and sensations were both as sharp as those of top-graded level-eight beings. She believed that nothing but a level-nine mutated beast could threaten her life.
Of course, there would still be a lot of dangers. So unknown things or creatures underground might affect zombies sohow.
As Lin Qiao seed to have made up her mind, Wu Chengyue had no choice but to agree as well. He turned to Lan Lu and once again asked him, “Alright. Anything else?”
It was the second ti he tried to ask Lan Lu to leave, so the latter gave him a aningful smile. But this ti, he didn’t stay anything as he stood up and walked toward the door.
“Alright, this is it,” he said and then walked out.
Only after watching him leave did Wu Chengyue feel slightly relaxed. He turned around to talk to Lin Qiao, but before he said anything, Duan Juan showed up at the door.
“Eh-hem, I’m sorry to interrupt you, but there’s news from the base,” Duan Juan knocked on the door, then looked at the two and said with a smile.
Seeing that, Wu Chengyue felt a little speechless.
