Lu Yuan disagreed with what Gong Yuehan said.

"Captain Gong, you're wrong. This is the apocalypse."

"As I said before, only God can change you; it's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change your nature."

"This kind of person..."

"Forget it, I won't say anymore. I don't like gossiping about others."

Lu Yuan suddenly felt that the topic had gone a bit off-topic.

"Mr. Lu, you haven't stated your conditions yet!"

Gong Yuehan always remembered this point.

"Actually, my requirements are very simple."

"We can both join your Maple Leaf team, but I have the right to choose whether or not to participate in the mission."

"Furthermore, if we participate in a mission together, I should have priority in choosing the loot, provided my contribution is greater."

Lu Yuan stopped being coy and directly stated his requirements.

"Yes, is there any more?"

Gong Yuehan agreed without even thinking.

"Don't agree so readily. If you can't do it, I have the right to leave the team at any time."

"Lastly, I don't like being told what to do."

"In addition, they may also handle the problem in my way."

Gong Yuehan didn't quite understand the meaning behind Lu Yuan's words.

But you can ask if you don't understand.

"Could you explain your approach more clearly?"

Lu Yuan raised his fist and said two words.

"strength!"

Gong Yuehan understood now.

Lu Yuan's meaning was simple: if unpleasant things or disagreements arose, they would choose to leave.

If things get even more extreme, then we'll resort to force.

This aligns with the survival rules of the apocalypse; there's no logic to it, and whoever has the strongest fist gets to call the shots.

"No problem, I promise!"

"Welcome to the Maple Leaf Team!"

After Gong Yuehan finished speaking, she extended her hand to shake hands with Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan pointed at Zhao Qiang.

"It wasn't me, it was both of us!"

Lu Yuan emphasized once again that he could bully Zhao Qiang, but others could not bully or ignore Zhao Qiang.

This is like your own son; you can discipline him, but others can't.

Gong Yuehan was embarrassed and quickly changed her story.

"Yes, yes, welcome to our Maple Leaf team."

Lu Yuan then extended his hand and shook hands with Gong Yuehan.

"This is our team's badge. Please put it on first, and then I'll introduce everyone to you."

Gong Yuehan took out two round badges, each about the size of a ping-pong ball, and handed them to Lu Yuan and Zhao Qiang.

"An introduction? Wasn't it already introduced last night?"

Gong Yuehan had no choice but to explain.

"This is mainly to announce that you have joined our team, and we will also discuss the next steps."

Lu Yuan nodded; this was indeed necessary.

Although Lu Yuan only saw this team as a stepping stone, that was a matter for the future.

At least for now, we need to get to know each other better first.

After Gong Yuehan finished speaking, she walked out, undoubtedly to gather her team members.

Just as Lu Yuan had guessed, in no time, there were eleven people, plus Lu Yuan and his companion, making a total of thirteen.

Then, they went to the so-called conference room to hold a meeting.

"Everyone knows these two people, so I won't go into details."

"What I want to say today is that they will be joining our Maple Leaf team, and from now on they will be members of our Maple Leaf team."

"I hope that in the future everyone can..."

Before Gong Yuehan could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a voice.

"I object!"

This is the Nth time Ye Shengnian has interrupted Gong Yuehan today.

Gong Yuehan's expression turned unnatural; she was very angry.

Recently, Ye Shengnian has become increasingly outrageous, showing signs of usurping the role of the host.

"Tell me your reasons for objecting!"

Gong Yuehan suppressed her anger. In fact, Ye Shengnian's current arrogance was absolutely related to Gong Yuehan herself.

To put it bluntly, Gong Yuehan is simply not suited to be a leader or the head of a team.

Not only Ye Shengnian saw this, but the other team members also saw it.

That's why Ye Shengnian is so unscrupulous. Apart from his strength being inferior to Gong Yuehan's, he is indeed more suitable to be the captain of this team than Gong Yuehan in other aspects.

This isn't a peaceful era where you can find a team leader in a factory to work at home and then create a harmonious atmosphere.

This is the end times; it's about survival, or rather, using any means necessary.

Ye Shengnian is such a person, and it is often people like him who make their teams develop more rapidly.

Therefore, out of the eleven members of the team, about half of them support Ye Shengnian.

Since Ye Shengnian is against it, he must have a reason for opposing it; otherwise, how can he gain everyone's support?

“They are both outsiders, and we don’t know them at all.”

"Also, we don't know how strong those two are, and they might even be a hindrance."

Barely, Ye Shengnian managed to come up with two excuses that weren't really excuses.

"You're talking nonsense. Brother Lu isn't like that at all. In fact, he's very capable."

Before Gong Yuehan could speak, Yu Huanshui, Gong Yuehan's number one fan, stood up to refute her.

Moreover, the fact that he directly addressed him as "Brother Lu" further provoked Ye Shengnian.

"Yu Huanshui, are you very familiar with him?"

How do you know if he's good or not?

Yu Huanshui was speechless after being rebuked by Ye Shengnian's words.

"Enough!"

"If we're talking about outsiders, half of the people here are from out of town."

"If we're not familiar with each other, who knew whom before?"

"Our team was already relatively weak, and now with the addition of two new members, this is a good thing for the team."

"So, what reason do we have to object?"

Gong Yuehan is still the captain after all, and others have to listen to what he says.

Besides, what she said makes a lot of sense, and at least quite a few people are nodding in agreement.

Ye Shengnian knew that things were not going well if things continued like this, so he came up with a plan.

"The captain has a point. Let's have everyone vote!"

"Although you are the captain, the team belongs to everyone, so we should always listen to everyone's opinions, am I right?"

Ye Shengnian started soliciting "sponsorships," which, to put it bluntly, meant he wanted to drag others down with him.

There's one more thing: he wanted to show off his muscles, and he wanted to tell Lu Yuan and Gong Yuehan a message.

He also has people on this team.

"Well, I think..."

"I choose to support Brother Nian!"

The speaker was another female member of the team, besides Gong Yuehan and Yu Huanshui.

Her name is Tsai Chih-ying.

Cai Zhiying looked at Gong Yuehan, then at Ye Shengnian, and finally gritted her teeth and chose to support Ye Shengnian.

After all, she had a crush on Ye Shengnian for a long time, and this was an opportunity.

It's not about right or wrong!

"I support the captain!"

"I support Sister Yuehan!"

"I support Vice Captain Ye!"

With someone in charge, things became much easier. Apart from Lu Yuan and Zhao Qiang, the eleven members of the Maple Leaf Team began voting.

End of chapter!
