Let's turn back time a little.
When Ouyang Qianjin sent Xue Manqi and others, along with Sebastian, to search the palace, they couldn't wait to go inside and begin their search.
Just as Ouyang Qianjin had thought.
These people were also very interested in a royal palace's treasure vault.
After searching for a while, they finally arrived at the location of the treasure vault with the help of a guy who could turn invisible.
Wow! There are so many good things here!
"Look at this scimitar, it must be used by cavalry! The entire blade is made of mithril, is it intended to be used as a magic wand?"
"Come, come, here's one. It can double the attack power of fire magic."
"What! I just chose the fire element! Give it to me now!"
"It's not like I'm not a fire elementalist, why should I give it to you!"
After everyone entered the treasure vault and saw the treasures, they excitedly searched for anything they could use.
Some people even almost got into a fight over a decent piece of equipment.
However, all of this was in vain.
"Don't forget your promise to the young lady; all the spoils belong to her."
As Zhang Mo picked up a horse-head dagger with a scabbard inlaid with many emeralds, he slowly spoke while using his Eye of Detection.
His voice wasn't loud.
That is, the average decibel level of speaking.
But to everyone's ears, it sounded like a thunderclap.
Yes... that's exactly what I promised Miss Ouyang when I left.
Otherwise, why would they let them come and gain experience points?
But isn't it a bit of a waste to just give it away like this?
Why don't we take advantage of the fact that no one else is around, and hide one on our person?
That way, the other party shouldn't be able to find out, right?
at this time.
In the face of self-interest.
That's what most people think.
Even if you know these things don't belong to you.
However, some people still use the excuse of "even if they didn't achieve anything, they still put in the effort" to find a reasonable psychological justification for themselves.
"Zhang Mo is right. Everyone should behave themselves. Otherwise, it would be a pity if we ended up losing both the goods and the people."
Xue Manqi strongly agreed with Zhang Mo's words.
There are quite a few good things here.
There were no items of the 'inferior quality', 'rough', or 'ordinary' grades.
The lowest grade is 'excellent', then 'good'.
There are even one-handed gauntlets with the prefix 'epic' in their own hands.
But this is not something they can control.
After all, from any perspective, these are now Ouyang Qianjin's spoils of war.
Even if you're really tempted, you can't take action.
Otherwise, they wouldn't even know how they died.
"Ha! Could she, Miss Ouyang, possibly kill me?"
"Indeed, she's a gentle and kind young girl. Although she's quite capable, she probably wouldn't go so far as to kill someone, would she?"
"Haha, impossible! Absolutely impossible, how could a little girl like her handle this?"
"Yes, yes, yes, take it. We've all come this far, so it's only fair that each of us gets a commission."
“That’s right. Why should she, the young lady of the Ouyang family, take everything? We should each take the weapons that are appropriate for our professions. It’s not excessive at all.”
Upon hearing Xue Manqi's words, several people scoffed.
Some people even started encouraging hesitant individuals.
They were thinking that the law wouldn't punish everyone.
After all, killing someone isn't something you can just do by opening your mouth.
Even in their previous battles for survival resources, it took them a long time to overcome their fear.
This is something a little girl who has just turned eighteen could never do.
then.
Those who felt confident they could handle Ouyang Qianjin in this regard began excitedly 'purchasing' weapons or equipment that would be helpful to them.
"Never mind, whatever makes you happy."
Xue Manqi shrugged.
Kind words cannot persuade a damned ghost.
He doesn't need to get involved in this kind of thing.
He didn't know how Ouyang Qianjin would react after finding out what these guys had done.
But he knew perfectly well that Ouyang Qianjin was the kind of person who would actually do such a thing.
They had all lived through this apocalypse for several months.
Someone without some tricks up their sleeve would have died long ago.
I had heard Dr. Tang mention before that when they left, there were some other people in the hospital besides Ouyang Qianjin.
However, when Ouyang Qianjin arrived at the base, she did not see anyone except for the Zhang brothers.
So these people were either killed by monsters.
Or he would have been killed by Ouyang Qianjin.
There is no third possibility.
But if it were a monster, it couldn't have died 'so cleanly'.
Surely one or two will survive?
The problem is that when Zhang Mo and his group encountered Ouyang Qianjin, she was indeed all alone.
The answer is then obvious.
Either Ouyang Qianjin abandoned those people, or she killed them all before leaving.
Either way, it's enough to show that Ouyang Qianjin, who always has a smile on her face, is a ruthless person.
You're already lucky to get some experience points, and you guys actually want bicycles?
What is this if not a path to certain death?
Zhang Yuan, who had been silent all along, took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to slip a magic book into his pocket and covered it with his clothes after seeing the way these people looked.
