Chapter 386 The transaction is complete.
"Captain Peng?" Lu Xici's voice pulled Peng Chun back from his chaotic thoughts.
Peng Chunqiang suppressed the growing unease and doubt in his heart, and paused when his gaze swept over Sang Xushi...
His Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily: "May I ask... what is this person's name?"
Chi Qi stepped forward half a step: "This is our Captain Lu."
Peng Chun tried to regain some initiative: "I wonder...who from Longteng does Captain Lu want?"
Sang Xu moved, reaching out with both hands simultaneously to pull Sang Che and Sang Yan, whose faces were covered with cloth strips.
He stood beside Lu Xici in full view of everyone...
"Sang Xu! You... what is this?" Peng Chun's voice suddenly rose, and a commotion broke out among the Longteng team members he brought.
Sang Xu turned his head and calmly met Peng Chun's gaze: "Captain Peng, can't you see? We need to stay in Flameheart."
"Your affairs are beyond my control!" Peng Chun's temple veins throbbed: [Sang Xu is a renowned combat expert of Longteng...]
"Can't make the decision?" Lu Xici raised an eyebrow slightly: "All the goods in this market are available for Longteng to choose from, and the prices are 20% lower than the marked prices."
He paused, his gaze settling on Peng Chun: "And the price is merely that Sang Xu and the other two remain in Flameheart. Captain Peng, what do you think?"
Peng Chun swallowed hard: [This is a blatant conspiracy; did I have a choice?]
Chi Yanzhou: "Captain Peng, let me remind you, you're... standing on our Flameheart's territory right now."
Peng Chun looked at the Flameheart ability users surrounding them, and his forehead instantly broke out in a fine layer of cold sweat.
His mind was in turmoil: [That guy surnamed Lu looks so much like that bastard Sang Xu, they must be from the same family! Damn it, what bad luck! I shouldn't have come today!]
Just as he was in shock and caught in a dilemma, a woman's voice reached everyone's ears.
Lu Nange: "In the apocalypse, encountering a horde of zombies on the road... losing a few people is probably normal, right?"
A powerful spiritual force descended without warning, enveloping Peng Chun and all his subordinates!
Peng Chun and his teammates behind him simultaneously let out painful groans, clutching their heads in unison, their faces instantly draining of color.
The intense pain made their vision go black, instantly robbing them of all thought and the ability to resist, leaving only instinctive groans of agony.
Peng Chun suddenly knelt heavily on one knee with a "thud": "I...I understand...I...on the way to Yanxin...encountered...a zombie horde...Sang...the three members of Sang's team...unfortunately...were killed..."
When the terrifying mental pressure subsided, Peng Chun was completely soaked in cold sweat, as if he had just been pulled out of the water. He collapsed on the ground, panting heavily.
He looked up in alarm, his gaze sweeping over the group of young people opposite him. He couldn't even tell who had produced that mental energy!
Lu Xici: "Now, let's get down to business. Captain Peng, what does Longteng... want to purchase?"
Still shaken, Peng Chun struggled to get up from the ground, his fingers still trembling slightly uncontrollably.
He dared not show the slightest arrogance again, hurriedly took out a neatly folded list of supplies from his inner pocket, bowed slightly, and respectfully handed it over with both hands.
"Deer, Deer Team...please, please take a look."
Lu Xici took the densely written list and quickly scanned it: "One thousand catties of rice, one thousand catties of flour, one thousand catties of corn, one thousand catties of potatoes, one thousand catties of sweet potatoes, various seeds..."
The list consisted mostly of food, with the remainder being medical supplies and basic daily necessities.
He handed the list to Lu Nange beside him, who simply nodded and uttered two words: "Wait."
She turned and walked toward the second golden door, disappearing into it.
Inside the door, she subtly moved her mind and retrieved supplies from her spatial storage—these were all stockpiles she had previously collected from logistics parks, supermarkets, and containers.
As for the food grown and the animals raised by the system manager, she doesn't plan to use them.
When the golden gate was pushed open again, small hills had already been piled up on the open ground outside.
Bags of rice and flour were neatly stacked, baskets of potatoes and sweet potatoes, and various seeds were packaged in separate categories...
Lu Xici looked at Peng Chun: "Cash on delivery."
"Of course." Peng Chun quickly replied, waving his hand behind him.
A man who had been standing silently in the middle of the group stepped forward. With a wave of his hand, a dozen bamboo baskets filled with crystal cores appeared neatly on the open ground.
Sang Xu whispered to Lu Xici beside him, "This is Long Teng's level two spatial ability user."
Shi Xu's spiritual energy swept over the crystal core basket, and after confirming the quantity, he nodded slightly...
Gu Qi: "Captain Peng, and this space-type ability user, come with me to inspect the goods."
"Wait for me here." Peng Chun nodded quickly, turned around and led the space-type ability user to follow Gu Qi toward the pile of supplies.
Peng Chun carefully opened each bag to check the quality, randomly checking several bags until he confirmed everything was correct before signaling to the space-type ability user.
With a wave of his hand, the mountain of supplies vanished instantly...
Peng Chun didn't dare linger. After collecting the supplies, he immediately said, "Thank you, Captain Lu, thank you everyone. We'll head back now."
Lu Xici: "Zhang Ao, see the guest out."
Peng Chun and his group hurriedly walked towards the gate under Zhang Ao's "escort".
After the Long Teng group had gone far away, Lu Xici turned around and looked at Sang Xu and the other two, his voice filled with barely suppressed excitement: "Uncle, Brother Che, Sister Yan."
Sang Che stepped forward, hugged Lu Xici tightly, patted him hard on the back twice, and said in a slightly choked voice, "Long time no see, Aci!"
"Aci." Sang Yan nodded gently, her face, covered by a cloth strip, turning to Lu Nange and Lu Beiye: "Nannan, Xiaoye."
Lu Nange and Lu Beiye responded in unison, "Sister Yan."
Sang Che released Lu Xici and looked expectantly at his younger siblings: "Nan Nan, Xiao Ye, do you still remember your big brother?"
"Brother Che," the two called out obediently.
Chi Yanzhou made a gesture to Chi Qi, who understood and immediately led all the staff back to the base.
Lu Xici began introducing his companions to Sang Xu and the other two: "Uncle, brother, sister, these are our comrades who have shared life and death..."
Sang Xu: "Family members you chose yourself?"
Lu Xici: "Yes, Uncle's summary is spot on. We are indeed half-siblings!"
As Lu Xici introduced them one by one, Chi Yanzhou and the others greeted them respectfully: "Uncle, Brother Che, Sister Yan."
Looking at this group of energetic young people, Sang Xu sincerely said, "Thank you for taking care of Aci and her two siblings."
