Chapter 650 A Month Has Passed in the Blink of an Eye
"I can take you there, but you have to agree to a few requests!"
Han Shuo's single sentence made the fat man jump up from the ground.
All the displeasure on his face vanished, and he replied excitedly.
"No problem, no problem!"
"I'll agree to anything you ask, as long as you take me with you!"
Han Shuo nodded and said slowly.
"First, you must not fight against hybrid organisms!"
"Oh, I value my life a lot, you know. Why would I do something so suicidal?" the fat man replied with a grin.
"Secondly, you mustn't complain at all on the way. You have to take the initiative to do all the dirty and hard work!"
"No problem, I'm a hardworking and diligent person!" The fat man patted his chest confidently.
"Third, and lastly, learn to drive a submarine. You'll be the driver for both trips."
"Well……"
After hearing the last sentence, the fat man excitedly ran off into the distance without looking back.
"I'm going to find Uncle Hank right now and have God teach me this skill!"
"It's a friendly decision between us, you can't back out now!"
...
Han Shuo stared at the spot where the fat man had disappeared, then shook his head with a wry smile.
Fine, fine. The trip for two has become a trip for three. In order to have some peace of mind for the next month, he finally had no choice but to bring the fat man along.
And just like that, another day passed quickly.
Upon returning to their residence, everyone learned that Han Shuo had obtained 300 drops of turbid liquid from Qing Yu, and they all joyfully celebrated.
Chen Hai even added a plate of meat for several of the guests.
However, trouble suddenly struck the next day.
Because Fatty couldn't keep his mouth shut, he actually told Xiao Zhao about Han Shuo's promise to go with him, and even bragged about it.
Sure enough, Han Shuo was cornered at his room door by Xiao Zhao as soon as he got up early in the morning.
...
At this moment, Xiao Zhao's face was full of anger and unhappiness.
"Brother Han, if Fatty can go, why can't I?"
"Well……"
Han Shuo patted his forehead as if in a headache, truly regretting his decision yesterday.
However, a promise is a promise, and he still has to keep it. He just needs to think of a way to appease Xiao Zhao.
Soon, an idea flashed through his mind. He stepped forward, patted Xiao Zhao on the shoulder, and spoke earnestly with a serious expression.
"Xiao Zhao, it's not that I don't want to take you, it's just that you have a more important mission coming up!"
"What?" Xiao Zhao frowned, half believing it.
Han Shuo continued to deceive, "If Feng and I leave, there won't be any high-combat-power personnel left in Ice City!"
"You will soon become a level 7 evolved human, and you will take over from us as Brother Qingyu to protect this city."
"What if the three of us came back and found that our old home was suddenly gone..."
After saying this, Xiao Zhao hurriedly called out.
"That's not right, Brother Han. I heard Dr. Lin say last time that Commander Qingyu had a very good foundation because he had been in the military for a long time."
"Although he's a bit older, he can still reach level 7!"
"Also, Chief Lunen is about to cultivate a level 6 evolved human. With Sister-in-law Yu Qing and Brother De Liang here, the combat strength here is not weak."
"Having such a group of experts guarding Ice City is enough, isn't it? Why don't you take me with you?"
...
After hearing Xiao Zhao's words, Han Shuo's face twitched slightly, his smile forced.
"Damn it, that kid Zhao's grown up, he's not so easy to fool anymore..."
However, without blushing or skipping a beat, he quickly came up with a new excuse.
"It would be more reliable to have two genetically evolved humans at level 7 guarding the area..."
"By the way, Brother Qingyu is about to start his recruitment and training plan."
"He specifically asked me for you. During the time we're gone, you'll be leading the new recruits in training."
"Think about it, if you go there, you'll be fighting every single day!"
...
Sure enough, when Han Shuo got to this point, a look of joy gradually appeared on Xiao Zhao's face.
He was a warmonger, and this condition seemed to be something he couldn't refuse.
"real?"
"real!"
"When have I ever lied to you? Brother Qingyu, you really need my help right now."
"..."
In this way, Han Shuo grasped Xiao Zhao's weakness and, after much persuasion, finally convinced him to give up his decision to follow him.
...
Han Shuo breathed a sigh of relief after Xiao Zhao left the room happily.
"Phew~"
"Compared to dealing with these trivial matters, I'm much better at fighting in the wild."
"Between Fatty and Xiao Zhao, Xiao Zhao is more obedient."
"One is easy to fool... ptooey, one is easy to coax, and the other is really hard to fool!"
...
After standing there for a while, in order to prevent his lie from being exposed, Han Shuo took Xiao Zhao to find Qingyu again that same day.
Furthermore, they explained why they had brought Xiao Zhao over.
During this time, he spoke while winking at Qingyu.
It means, you know...
As a seasoned veteran, Qingyu naturally understood perfectly and flawlessly covered up Han Shuo's lie.
This is the outcome that both the old and new captains wanted to see.
Qingyu was also willing to leave Xiao Zhao in Bingcheng, rather than let him follow Han Shuo to a distant place to risk his life...
And so, the honest and obedient Xiao Zhao was kept here by the two of them working together...
...
The days that followed passed in the blink of an eye.
The fat man quickly learned how to pilot a submarine, and everyone stayed comfortably in the Ice City, quietly waiting for the one-month deadline to arrive, waiting for Han Shuo to complete his 9th evolution...
The conscription plan ordered by Qingyu was immediately launched.
Large numbers of people actively joined in.
Xiao Zhao also got to participate in the operation as he wished. With such a fighting instructor around, the recruits' days ahead were not going to be easy.
Han Shuo would sometimes go out to check on the wind, and sometimes have a small gathering with Qingyu and Lunen. He was arguably the most carefree and leisurely person in the Ice City.
To ensure the smooth progress of his upcoming cross-sea voyage, he also went to the neighboring city and retrieved a considerable number of books.
It contains a wealth of information on biological characteristics.
Knowledge is power, after all. Who knows what strange and bizarre creatures I'll encounter on my way to the White-haired side...
Finally, in the blink of an eye, a month had passed quietly.
That day, Li Shurou checked Han Shuo and Xiao Zhao several times to ensure they were in the best possible condition before taking out two syringes.
The two can now complete their next evolution!
