Zhang Jie, who had already changed his opinion of the Oasis Base and was already very cautious, became even more apprehensive after seeing Jing Yi.
Instead of being wary of Jing Yi, Zhang Jie was surprised and relieved upon seeing him.
Zhang Jie knew Jing Yi's character all too well. He had once been saddened by the loss of such an upright and capable young man at the base. Now that he knew Jing Yi was alive and well and had even joined a new base, Zhang Jie was genuinely happy for him.
At the same time, because they believed in Jing Yi's character, they also added a layer of filter to their view of the Oasis Base!
He was cautious about the Oasis base.
When Jing Yi disappeared from the Vermilion Bird Base, he was already a rare Level 7 ability user in the wasteland, and a lightning-type ability user with extremely high destructive power!
Seeing that his supernatural abilities were extremely restrained, almost like a return to simplicity, Zhang Jie certainly didn't think that Jing Yi's supernatural abilities had disappeared.
There's only one possibility: he's leveled up again!
In addition, it is known that the base chief of the Oasis Base is a three-elemental ability user, among which the mental ability is capable of instantly killing a level six mental ability user. The specific level is unknown, but it must be very high!
Could someone be at least level eight to make Jing Yi submit to them wholeheartedly?
It can't be level nine, can it?!
In short, Zhang Jie's attitude changed several times, but finally settled on being as gentle and polite as possible.
The two sides began formal negotiations. This time, Zhang Jie behaved himself and immediately apologized for the rude behavior of the Suzaku Base personnel who intercepted the Oasis Base chief.
Furthermore, the fact that those team members made decisions on their own and ended up in that situation was entirely their own fault, thus concluding this farce with a final verdict.
The Suzaku base was the one that died, and they didn't pursue the matter, so the Oasis base was naturally happy to let it go!
Satisfied with the other party's understanding, Fang Qingdai clapped her hands and had the team replace the prepared large white steamed buns with a banquet table for entertaining VIPs!
As the waiters filed in, each carrying exquisite dishes, Zhang Jie couldn't resist swallowing several mouthfuls of food!
Look, look!
While they fight and eat dirt and drink the wind, others live in peace and prosperity, enjoying an endless variety of new and exciting dishes every day!
No wonder Li Weidong was so sour, trying every means to spread rumors about the Oasis Base and incite everyone to drag it down!
He should have been warned sooner!
Li Weidong had visited the Oasis base, so he must know its approximate strength.
Not to mention the psychological interference from the outside, which can be as effective as chasing after people, the three bases simply don't have the capacity to build many anti-interference devices. The few that exist are reserved for the use of their respective high-ranking officials.
Since ordinary teams of superhumans are not equipped with anti-interference devices, they cannot be expected to storm the Oasis Base.
This is also why the Oasis base has never been captured.
Moreover, the Oasis base is now under the control of its owners. In addition to the unpredictable mental interference, there are also man-made traps and a heavily armed defense line. It is not so easy to attack.
With fighter jets and tanks, plus advanced superhumans in command, how can we possibly break through?
Even if we can't break through, we're not afraid of besieging them. Their grain is selling like hotcakes. Even if we besiege them for three years, they'll still have food and drink, which will give them a good chance to recuperate!
That old scoundrel Li Weidong, not daring to act rashly himself, went to incite the Vermilion Bird Base and the White Tiger Base. He is truly despicable!
Seeing his changing expression, Mao Min, as the main person in charge of this diplomatic mission, naturally had to offer her heartfelt greetings.
Well, of course she wouldn't say it was out of curiosity about Li Weidong's gossip.
After learning about Li Weidong's underhanded tactics, Mao Min once again passionately launched into a tirade against Li Weidong, cursing him from head to toe!
The language is elegant yet sharp, restrained yet containing a surprising edge. The entire text is free of profanity and quotes many literary works that Zhang Jie has never heard of before. Its brilliance leaves Zhang Jie speechless and amazed!
Why is the chief of staff of Oasis Base so outstanding, even though they are both from the same base?
Zhang Jie could already imagine how bewildered and frustrated they would be if he used such profound words to argue with those traitors in the base, and how they would eventually be scolded into fleeing in defeat!
Based on this idea, after agreeing on the grain purchase, Zhang Jie cautiously yet shamelessly suggested, "I really admire Commander Mao's writing skills. Could I stay for a few days and learn from Commander Mao?"
Fang Qingdai stared at him with dead fish eyes.
She doesn't want to talk about it!
Was he planning to stay and study? If Xiao Mao were there, he'd probably be itching to draw his sword!
However, Fang Qingdai was an enlightened base director. Although she felt that Zhang Jie was not a good match because of their different positions, she hesitated for a while and then privately asked Mao Min for her opinion.
"What did you say? He's interested in me?"
Mao Min looked shocked: "No, has his brain rusted? We haven't reached a real friendship yet, it's just a temporary cooperation for the sake of interests. We could turn on each other at any time, and he's getting involved in romance at this point?"
"How could someone with such a brain become the base's chief of staff?"
Fang Qingdai said with a deep expression, "A strategist doesn't enter the battlefield. The moment he joins the fight, his mind becomes worthless."
Mao Min, looking constipated, stared speechlessly at Fang Qingdai: "Speak like a human being!"
Fang Qingdai immediately smiled and said, "He's a chief of staff, after all. He must understand that you two aren't a good match. But he still took action. Either he's still smart enough to use his charm to break through your defenses, or it's very unlikely that he's really fallen in love and doesn't care about his position anymore!"
Both women and one cricket, both think the former is more likely!
Mao Min is not someone who is insensitive to emotions; on the contrary, she used to be a womanizer.
But times have changed, and now she's just an ordinary person who hasn't fully regained her confidence, so she didn't interpret Zhang Jie's gaze in any other way.
Now that Fang Qingdai had reminded her, she took a closer look and, wow, it was all pink bubbles in her eyes!
Mao Min made a quick decision, revealing a worried expression.
Zhang Jie immediately sensed something was wrong and hurriedly went over to ask anxiously, "What's wrong, Chief of Staff Mao? Is something bothering you?"
Fang Qingdai couldn't help but shudder and muttered under her breath, "If anyone chases after me with such a greasy attitude, I'll definitely smash their head in."
Jing Yi, standing to the side, seemed to be deep in thought.
Mao Min sighed: "It's not that I don't want you to stay. Actually, I don't know why, but I felt that we clicked immediately. If you stay, we'll definitely have a lot to talk about."
Zhang Jie's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Yes, yes, I also feel that we clicked really well, it's like we've known each other for ages!"
Mao Min forced a smile: "If you stay, I'll take you to see the mutated fireflies in the fields at night, take you to visit our base's library, and take you to the river to watch the white carp leaping across the water. I think someone as sophisticated as Commander Zhang will definitely enjoy those scenes."
Zhang Jie's eyes were glazed over!
Unexpectedly, Mao Min changed the subject: "Unfortunately, the people at the Azure Dragon Base are very angry about your people's provocation, and they have already taken people to the Vermilion Bird Base. You didn't know that, did you?"
Zhang Jie, who was already feeling quite smug, froze: "What?"
