"How's it going, Ranran? Did you get it sorted out?"
Lin's father brandished two modified axes, his eyes constantly checking to see if his precious daughter was hurt.
"All done! Dad, just finish cleaning these up and everything will be fine!"
"good!"
With their rear secured, everyone was on fire, unleashing a barrage of attacks on the zombies.
In this battle, everyone worked without rest, fighting to the death as long as they survived!
Although the zombie horde was without a leader, its numbers were still considerable. On the tenth day, Lin Anran swiftly brought down her knife, and the last zombie's head fell spectacularly into a pool of blood.
"Aa ...
"Ohhhhhhh"
"yeah!!!!"
"Great! Great! We did it!"
"Wow! We did it! Aaaaaaah!"
"......"
Everyone in the base wept with joy, hugging those around them and crying.
Their faces beamed with the joy of surviving a disaster; even though they were covered in blood and sweat, they were still happy.
"Dude! From now on, we're brothers who'll live and die together! Waaaaah~ Come here! Give me a hug!"
"Get out of here! Aren't you disgusted? I'm looking for a wife! Get out of my way!"
"No, no, just a hug~"
"......"
Lin Anran sheathed her military knife, reverting to her usual harmless demeanor. "Wow! So many crystal cores! Let's go mushroom picking!"
Everyone: ...Please, sister, you weren't like this just now!
Lin Yu pulled out a handful of large sacks from his pocket as if by magic, and threw them on the ground.
"Sis! See how well your little brother understands you! If this isn't enough, I'll go home again!"
Everyone: !!!
No, you guys were really prepared all along! Why didn't you say so sooner!
Just a moment ago, he was acting like a good buddy, but now his feet are moving like he's wearing speed shoes, as if he's afraid of being even half a step slower than the other person.
"Hey? Bro! My good brother! Why are you running? Is something urgent?"
"Don't pull me back! Why are you running? Things have come to this point, stop pretending! I'm telling you, don't let this cause trouble!"
"Alright, bro, I'm not kidding you anymore! We have a bigger bag at home, come with me to get it!"
"Hahaha, good bro, you're really reliable! Let's go!"
......
Then, a strange scene unfolded on the open ground outside the base.
Everyone was squatting on the ground, heads down, stuffing things into bags.
"Green crystal core! Blue crystal core! Red crystal core! Purple..."
Everyone was having a great time collecting them. All their efforts over the past few days had paid off. And you know what? Collecting crystal cores was even more fun than collecting money!
After fighting zombie hordes for half a month, collecting crystal cores is still just as difficult.
Everyone was panting as they picked up the crystal cores from the ground, their faces beaming with happy smiles.
Two days later, Xu Hu stood in the empty open space and roared!
"They were all taken? Not a single one left! So many crystal cores, why wasn't a single one left! This is outrageous!"
Niu Ben's expression remained unchanged as he thought about the backpack full of crystal cores in his room.
"Boss! We're...too late! They've already cleaned this place up!"
"Of course I know! Shut the hell up!"
Xu Hu turned around and walked into the base. "By the way! Did you guys participate? They can't keep it all to themselves; they have to give you back!"
Niu Ben frowned. "Boss, this... we didn't really help much, so we..."
"What are you saying? If you've helped, you should get something out of it. What? Do they want to keep it all for themselves?"
"No! Boss, they've brought the stuff..."
Xu Hu was so angry he almost vomited blood. "Why didn't you say so earlier? Let's go back and distribute the supplies!"
The group following behind Xu Hu reluctantly followed.
Why should he, who didn't participate in anything, want the crystals they worked so hard to obtain?
Niu Ben could see everyone's reluctance. "Boss! I'll give you all of mine. The rest of us brothers don't have much, so let them keep it!"
Niu Ben, who usually keeps to himself, actually stood up and spoke to everyone, which moved everyone.
When we were killing zombies before, some of our brothers were almost injured, and Niu Ben was always the first to rush in.
It would be a lie to say they weren't moved; they even felt that Niu Ben was more capable of being the captain than Xu Hu.
Xu Hu's expression changed. "Niu Ben, how long have you been with me? Do I need you to make decisions for me now?"
"No...no, boss, I'll send the crystal core to you as soon as I get back."
"Hmph! You'd better understand your place, or... you know the consequences!"
"Got it, boss!"
Only after Xu Huren had gone far away did the remaining people dare to speak.
"The boss is going too far! How could he talk about Brother Niu like that! We put in a lot of effort to get these things, and he wants to take them back without saying a word."
"Yeah! I feel like the boss is being too selfish! Are we just going to send the stuff to him like that?"
"Brother Niu! What should we do now? With these crystals, everyone can level up. If we hand them over, we'll have no chance of advancement!"
Niu Ben took a breath and listened to everyone's discussion before slowly speaking, "You can keep your own things. I'll give him all my things, and then we'll say these are ours!"
"Brother Niu! You're being too selfless! You're giving him everything, leaving nothing for yourself. That's not good for you!"
"Yeah! Brother Niu! Why don't we just talk to the boss directly?"
"No! This is the arrangement; you all go back!"
Niu Ben returned to his private room and dug out several bags of crystal cores from under the bed.
I only packed two small bags into my backpack, and then stuffed the rest back into the backpack.
"Knock knock knock!"
"Brother Niu, are you there? I'm coming in!"
The man poked his head out and instantly surveyed the entire house.
"Brother, I've brought you some things. We don't want you to be the only one making sacrifices. This bag is from everyone's donation, so please keep some for yourself."
Niu Ben glanced at the bag and nodded. "Thank you everyone! I'll return it to you later."
"No need! Brother Niu, everyone actually... wants you to be the captain!"
"Bang!"
The door closed, and Niu Ben stood there, stunned.
team leader?
They want him to be the captain? Niu Ben thought of Xu Hu's usual domineering behavior, and a thin thread appeared in his heart.
If he were the captain, he wouldn't be like Xu Hu; he would definitely be a good captain.
With his backpack on, he arrived at the villa area and saw Xu Hu sitting upright on the sofa, surrounded by beautiful women, looking very happy.
"Boss! I've brought these things over to you!"
Xu Hu lifted his eyelids slightly, and his thick lips kissed the beauty beside him again.
