Chapter 32
After leaving the breeding center of the base, Team Lan said that he had other things to do and left.
Looking at his hurried back, Huang Qian sighed that it was indeed the right decision for her to reject the official invitation from the base and choose to be an independent mercenary.
Although compared to the lawful army who stay in the base most of the time and do not need to go out, mercenaries seem to be in danger of being killed at any time, at least they are free.
There is no need to do thankless work every day for the sake of the base and humanity.
Huang Qian patted Wen Bei's shoulder. After spending half a day together, her carefree personality was fully revealed. She was no longer reserved. "Would you like to go to the bar with me for a drink?"
Wen Bei had never experienced the atmosphere of the polluters gathering at the base. He nodded, like a good student who had just reached adulthood and was lured into doing bad things, his eyes clear: "Okay."
Huang Qian pressed her chest and suddenly felt guilty for leading a good child astray, but this guilt was quickly replaced by excitement.
She grinned, her red lips looking gorgeous with lipstick: "Come, follow me."
...
Here in the dark room of the Dark Fire Guild.
Li Shu sneaked in from outside and entered the password. Someone was already waiting inside.
The former president turned around, and a shadow fell on his face, covering the messy scar on it.
He was so angry that his whole body was shaking. It was not until this moment that he dared to vent the anger that had been accumulating for a long time.
The fat man grabbed Li Shu's hair and swung his head to the ground: "Waste! You are all a bunch of waste!"
He watched helplessly as his five years of hard work were destroyed, and the members who once bowed down to him were now wagging their tails to the new master.
There was a big hole on Li Shu's forehead, revealing the rotten flesh inside. His supernatural power was related to corruption. Because of pollution, his body was also corroded.
He wiped off the smelly blood without a care in the world, and hunched over, approaching. "President, in my heart, you are the real president. That man was just complacent for a moment. When the vice president comes back, we will definitely find a way to fight him."
As expected, the fat man's reaction was as bad as he expected. He asked angrily, "Are you saying I'm not as good as the second one?"
Li Shu: "No, no."
The more the fat man thought about it, the uglier his expression became. He was used to being highly praised by everyone. When he thought about how the second brother would ridicule him for not being able to protect the guild when he came back, his anger almost burned him.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Li Shu quickly said while the heat was on: "Perhaps we can resolve this matter before the vice president arrives."
The fat man glanced at him and asked, "What do you want?"
Whenever he thought of Qiu Ding's scoundrel face, he felt pain in every bone in his body.
That man was truly terrifying. He had never seen a person who was not affected at all by being besieged by several mental polluters.
There is no other person like him in the base.
Even the darkest cards played by their guild couldn't shake him.
Li Shu's eyes darted around. "Do you remember the young man who came to sit in the guild for a while this morning?"
A strange light flashed in the fat man's eyes: "Of course."
The man was extremely handsome. If he hadn't met him at the wrong time, he would have found a way to make the young man into a puppet and keep him by his side.
Li Shu: "He's an ordinary person, and he seems to have a close relationship with Qiu Tinge. Wouldn't it be easy for you to capture an ordinary person as a hostage?"
The fat man paused, thinking about the pros and cons.
If it were before, he would definitely not dare to agree, but Li Shu's "unintentional" words just now just stimulated him.
When he thought of the sarcastic expression on the second brother's gloomy face, he wanted to destroy everything at hand.
The fat man frowned, and after thinking it over, he finally agreed: "Then tell me, how are we going to use this hostage..."
...
On the other side, Wen Bei had just drunk some wine and his face was slightly flushed.
Night fell at some point, and the bar began to play lively music. Men and women were whispering in the dim light, occasionally twisting their bodies to show off their figures and charm.
In this age where life and death are unpredictable, if you are attracted to each other, you can spend the night together.
No one is pretentious.
When Wen Bei first stepped into the bar, he kept looking around. His black hair and black eyes were so out of place in this apocalypse where the hair and eye colors had mutated into countless shades that people couldn't help but pay attention to him.
If he hadn't been accompanied by the famously aggressive Huang Qian, there would have been a tenth wave of people trying to chat him up.
Huang Qian smiled sweetly: "Why are you blushing after just two drinks?"
Wen Bei knew that his alcohol tolerance was average, so he put down his cup and said in a very obedient manner, "Yeah."
Huang Qian suddenly felt something was wrong: "Are you drunk?"
No matter how low my alcohol tolerance is, there is no way I would get drunk after drinking two glasses of beer.
Wen Bei shook his head: "No."
Huang Qian felt relieved. She saw that Wen Bei's eyes were still rational, with a bit of coldness, which seemed a bit contradictory to his delicate and broken appearance. However, the mixture was surprisingly harmonious, like a piece of cold white jade, which made people want to hold it in the palm of their hands and play with it.
But a little blush appeared on his face again.
It dispelled most of the cold and aloof feeling that made it seem unapproachable to strangers, and added a bit of charm.
Huang Qian coughed softly to drive out all the inappropriate thoughts from her mind.
Although she likes handsome guys, she can't do such a beastly thing to her savior.
Fortunately, it was me who followed her today. If others saw this beauty up close, how could they control themselves?
Even though Huang Qian agreed to be his bodyguard during this period, Wen Bei still didn't completely let down his guard. He drank some more beer, his eyes blurred for a moment before regaining his composure: "Let's go, I should go back."
If you don't go back, another mad dog will come looking for you by smelling the scent.
Huang Qian: "Okay."
As soon as they walked out of the bar, the cool evening breeze blew over.
Wen Bei's eyes became clearer, and he sensed a different atmosphere.
Huang Qian is worthy of being a polluter who has been struggling in the apocalypse for five years, and her vigilance is extraordinary.
Her originally laughing and talking expression paused for a moment, a look of vigilance flashed in her eyes, and she was still making unfinished jokes on her face.
Everything looks fine.
Huang Qian followed closely.
The person hiding in the shadows finally couldn't help herself and took a few steps forward: "Hello!"
There was a small bruise on the woman's right eye, and she was still wearing very thin clothes on the chilly night.
Wen Bei recognized her. She was the one he and Li Shu had met at the camp outside the base. There was no trace of familiarity in his eyes. "What's wrong?"
He could tell that the woman was not doing this willingly, as her movements were a little stiffer than when they first met.
The woman trembled slightly as she thought of the president's request to her: "Can you help me?"
Huang Qian frowned: "What's wrong with you?"
The woman stepped forward and tried to grab her hand: "Help me, I'm being chased. Please walk with me for a while."
The bar here is a bit remote, and ordinary people rarely pass by here.
Avoid encounters with drunk and troublesome polluters.
The woman's request is indeed reasonable, after all, she is just an ordinary person.
If it weren't for the vague murderous aura in the dark, Huang Qian would have agreed.
But what was more important to her now was to escort her savior back, so she refused bluntly.
The woman's face turned pale, as if she would fall to the ground in the next second.
Wen Bei originally thought that she would continue to beg, but he didn't expect that after struggling for a while, the woman actually showed an expression of giving up.
The woman gave them a forced smile: "I understand."
She could feel the part of her body where the poison was placed getting hot, which was a warning for her to act according to the plan.
But looking at the young man who had once helped her, the woman couldn't continue speaking.
After being oppressed for several months, I finally want to put up a little resistance, even if the price of this resistance is my life.
She didn't want to be manipulated by Li Shu anymore.
Even if she really deceived the young man as he wished this time, she would not live much longer. The next time she left the base, she would not be able to escape death.
After the woman thought it through, she looked relieved and said, "I'm leaving first. You guys should go back soon."
She gritted her teeth and gave a reminder.
Wen Bei watched her leave, his eyes flashing: "Under what circumstances would an ordinary person follow a polluter out of the base."
Huang Qian was surprised by his sudden question. "We call this smuggling. Some polluters take ordinary people with them when they go out, and then lie about it when they come back. The base can't possibly refuse entry to ordinary people."
As for the reason, Wen Bei could guess it without her having to say it.
It is simply to facilitate some things on the road, and ordinary people can be used as meat shields at critical moments.
It is an extremely bad thing.
Wen Bei's eyes turned cold. He reached into his pocket and touched the small round thing that had been hidden inside.
Huang Qian saw his hesitation and asked, "Want to help?"
Wen Bei glanced sideways: "What do you think?"
Huang Qian smiled and said, "Boss, I am your hired mercenary now."
She gently used her fingers painted with red nail polish to play with her red hair, which looked like a gorgeous red rose in the dark night. Under her red skirt, one could see the whip hidden at her waist faintly.
Wen Bei curled the corners of his lips: "Let's go."
They quickly caught up with the woman, and Huang Qian took the initiative to say, "We'll take you back."
The woman looked terrified: "No, that's not necessary."
She didn't understand why these two people didn't understand the hint she had just given.
Wen Bei directly pulled her over and walked in another direction: "On the way."
Ambush in the direction the woman had just moved.
Her cracked lips moved and she silently said thank you.
Li Shu and the fat man in the dark didn't expect him to return. They looked at each other and knew what each other was thinking.
No matter what Wen Bei thought, as long as he had contact with women, he would be completely reduced to a bird in a cage.
The fat man's eyes turned vicious.
This naive young man must not have thought that as soon as he touched the woman in front of him, he would be infected with Li's supernatural power - [Poison]
These insects, which cannot be seen with the naked eye, enter the body like pollution.
Finally, it attaches to the internal organs and is at the mercy of the Li clan.
And this kind of insect is absolutely impossible to avoid, because it is not a true poisonous insect at all, but a deadly source of pollution.
This ability looks very vicious, but Li's ranking in the guild has always been mediocre.
The reason is that this ability only works on ordinary people, and those who have been polluted and corrupted are not afraid of this source of pollution.
But Wen Bei is just an ordinary person who is powerless.
It would be easy to let the poisonous insects contaminate him.
Their plan was half successful.
