Just then, the walkie-talkie on the dining table rang.
"Ye Lei, Ye Lei, are you there? There's new information!"
Judging from the voice, it was Zhou Binghui.
Ye Lei picked up the walkie-talkie and calmly asked, "What's going on? Speak!"
"Those soldiers who came looking for you last time are here again!"
Zhou Binhui said hurriedly.
Deputy Captain Liu? What brings you here this time? Is it about the scavenger tribe? Yesterday's news reports said that the military apparently didn't wipe them out.
"Okay, have they come in yet?"
"Yes, we just went in."
Okay, got it.
Ye Lei put down the walkie-talkie, took a sip of porridge, got up and left. He would not welcome soldiers into his shelter.
At the same old spot, Ye Lei saw the military off-road vehicle approaching and stood in the middle of the road waiting for them.
"Comrade Ye Lei, you're very well-informed! You're here waiting for us so quickly."
Deputy Captain Liu got out of the car and spoke with a half-smile.
"Deputy Captain Liu, what brings you here this time?"
Ye Lei had no intention of getting close to them.
"Ah! It's like this, we'd like to ask Comrade Ye Lei for one more favor!"
"What is it? The scavenger tribe?"
"Comrade Ye Lei, you are indeed clever! That's exactly why we've come!"
Deputy Captain Liu readily admitted it.
"If even your military can't solve this, what can I, Ye, possibly do?"
The last time we dealt with the Scavengers Alliance was already extremely dangerous, and we even had to escape from the clutches of the Zombie King Shark. Now, everything we do is getting harder and harder.
"No, we believe you have a way. You are an awakened being with superpowers."
Deputy Captain Liu seemed to think highly of Ye Lei.
"It's just superpowers, don't you all have plenty of those too?"
Ye Lei would never forget that there were still so many lights on in the X Secret Lab.
"You can't compare to us. We brought them along this time too, and they almost didn't make it back."
"Oh, really? I wonder what powerful things the scavenger tribe has that makes them unafraid of survivors who have awakened supernatural abilities."
Ye Lei also needs to understand the situation clearly before making a decision.
"This is really something! It's a snake, a flying snake!"
"Flying snake?"
"It's much more powerful than a flying snake; it has wings, it's a real flying snake!"
Deputy Captain Liu spoke with trepidation, as if the flying snake could appear at any moment.
"Really? It's the apocalypse! There are all sorts of mutated zombies now!"
Ye Lei said calmly, "It's just a snake, what's there to be afraid of?"
"Comrade Ye Lei, don't look at this snake first. It's elusive and can suddenly appear, spewing out black poisonous mist. It's extremely venomous!"
"What's there to be afraid of? You soldiers are all fully armed, you shouldn't be able to get hurt!"
"At first, we thought so too, but I soon realized something was wrong. Even fully armed, once you were injured by the poisonous fog, you would still end up foaming at the mouth and bleeding from all seven orifices, dying!"
Why is that?
"Our researchers quickly extracted the toxic fog for study. The results showed that this toxic fog is not only extremely poisonous, but also has penetrability, so anyone who gets in contact with it will not escape death!"
Good heavens! There are such powerful things. No wonder these scavengers dare to be so reckless.
"Don't you have any other solutions?"
"No, we've already tried it. This toxic fog can penetrate any object, even metal!"
Deputy Captain Liu shook his head.
"That's powerful, then there's nothing I can do. I don't want to die, I won't go!"
Ye Lei didn't want to be contaminated by the poisonous fog.
"Comrade Ye Lei, as long as you can complete the mission, the military is willing to provide 8,000 crystal cores this time."
"Even if you gave me ten thousand, I still couldn't do anything about it!"
Ye Lei said with a smile.
"Okay, it's settled then. Ten thousand pills. Shall we set off now?"
Holy crap! I've fallen into this guy's trap.
"Hey, Deputy Captain Liu, I never said I'd go if it cost 10,000!"
"I don't care, Comrade Ye Lei, I've already heard you say ten thousand pills. I'll wait for you here. Please go back and prepare as soon as possible!"
"Is this some kind of joke? Can the military really act like a rogue?" Deputy Captain Liu turned and got into the military off-road vehicle, clearly not intending to leave, and looked at Ye Lei, who was in a daze, with a grin.
Holy crap! Looks like I have no choice but to go this time, they're really sticking to this! Ye Lei had no choice but to turn around and return to the shelter.
When he entered the villa, the goddesses all gathered around him, it seemed they already knew everything through the surveillance cameras.
"Brother Lei, what should we do? Do we really have to go?"
"My God, I'd only ever heard of venomous snakes before, but I'd never actually encountered one this venomous!"
"Yes, I've heard of flying snakes, but this is the first time I've ever heard of a flying snake with wings!"
"The problem is that its venom can penetrate any object, what should we do?"
"Brother Lei, say something! That Deputy Captain Liu is still here, and he doesn't seem to be leaving."
…………
"Shut up, all of you! What's all this noise about? Be quiet!"
Ye Lei's roar startled everyone into silence. He was completely bewildered; he knew he couldn't escape this situation, and he was trying to figure out how to deal with it.
"Brother Lei, if you really decide to go, I'm willing to go with you."
It was Chen Xueer who spoke; I don't know where she got the courage.
"Xue'er, I'm very happy that you have this courage, but this time, you'll not only be facing this poisonous snake, but also those vicious thugs from the scavenger tribe. It's too dangerous for you to go!"
Ye Lei was also somewhat moved by Chen Xueer's courage.
"Brother Lei, actually I have some news that I haven't told you yet. My period is late this month. Xiuyan checked it out for me and said I'm pregnant. However, I haven't felt any of those supernatural powers that you mentioned when you say you're pregnant. I've tried it many times already!"
Chen Xueer spoke with a mixture of joy and helplessness.
"Oh! Really? Why didn't you say so sooner?"
"I haven't awakened any superpowers. I was worried you'd be upset, so I haven't told you!"
Chen Xueer's long-awaited pregnancy finally came, but she was very frustrated because she did not awaken her superpowers.
"Perhaps what you've awakened is truly a seductive art? There are women all around, so you wouldn't be able to detect it!"
"Really? Maybe it really is possible!"
Ye Lei's words reminded Chen Xueer.
"Since that's the case, then I'll take you with me and test how powerful your seductive arts are. Let those so-called scavengers taste the power of my Xue'er!"
Ye Lei is currently at a loss with those scavengers, but perhaps Chen Xueer can be of great help!
"Brother Lei, does that mean you've agreed to take me out?"
Chen Xueer was very excited when she heard this.
"Yes, let's get ready! Is there anyone else who wants to come along?"
Ye Lei was also inspired by Chen Xueer's courage.
