Chapter 204: Disappointment, Controversy



"Haohao, you can't be like your aunt Jian and be a money-grubber." Lin Miao looked at Jian Hui's expectant but restrained expression and couldn't help teasing her.

Jian Hui: I've already held back, why are you still dragging me into this? It's annoying!

Li Xue covered her mouth and smiled: "Okay, no more trouble." Then she turned her palm and a handful of crystal cores appeared in her palm.

Jian Hui looked at the crystal cores with shining eyes and a happy silly smile on her face.

Lin Miao looked at her and shook her head: "Okay, look at your useless look, as if you have never seen a crystal core. Besides, these crystal cores are not very useful to you, why do you care so much?"

Jian Hui rolled her eyes at Lin Miao: "What do you care? Who said they are not very useful to me? These crystal cores can buy a lot of things! Besides, even if you don't buy things, it's not bad to just look at them. I don't believe you don't like it." Then she turned around and asked Li Xue excitedly: "Xiaoxue, how many are there?"

"A lot, there will be more." Li Xue couldn't help laughing when she thought of the mountain of crystal cores in the space. Who doesn't love crystal cores in the apocalypse, just like before the apocalypse, everyone loved money. She felt that she had always been a vulgar person, so the more crystal cores she had, the happier she was.

"Great, we can eat while lying down in the future." Jian Hui couldn't help laughing out loud when she thought about having countless crystal cores to use in the future.

Lin Miao shook her head unhappily: "What a great prospect!"

At night, Jian Hui dreamed that she was lying on a pile of countless crystal cores, living a life of luxury, and she giggled with joy.

In the dark, Li Xue, who was busy controlling the ice cats, heard Jian Hui's laughter and shook her head with amusement.

In the next two days, Li Xue still went to the battlefield during the day to use her superpowers to freeze the feet of zombies and cooperate with those superpowers to eliminate zombies. At night, she and Lin Miao went under the broken bridge to collect crystal cores and release ice cats, and they were very busy.

In the base, Xiangdong calculated the time when Li Xue and the others set out, his brows furrowed tightly.

They have been gone for a week, why haven't they come back yet? According to the plan, they should have come back yesterday. Did they

encounter an accident? Although according to the intelligence, there would not be too much danger in the factory in W City, but there were so many zombies in W City that it was terrifying. Xiangdong couldn't sit still when he thought of the mission when Li Xue disappeared. If she had another accident, or was missing for half a year again, he didn't know if he could still pretend to be calm like last time.

At this moment, the door of the office was pushed open, and Monkey ran in anxiously: "Boss, something happened!"

Xiangdong's heart skipped a beat: "What happened?"

"Just got the news, there is a zombie riot in W City! Hundreds of thousands of zombies are swarming out."

"What!" Xiangdong stood up. "When did it happen? Have the people who went to W City to collect supplies returned?" "

It happened three days ago. According to the time, it was the day when Sister Li Xue and the others arrived in W City." Monkey was also anxious. It was not easy for Li Xue to come back, and the boss had a smile on his face. But how could this happen again?

"No, I'm going to find the general." Xiangdong stood up and walked out. Monkey held him back: "Boss, why are you looking for the general?"

"I want to go to W City to rescue them. I must get the general's approval." Xiangdong walked to the door and was stopped by the monkey.

"Boss, calm down." Monkey held Xiangdong back. "With your current status, the general will never let you rescue Sister Li Xue and the others."

"Do I have to watch Li Xue trapped or even killed because of my status? If so, what's the point of having this status! What's the point of me living!" Xiangdong growled. He shook off the monkey's hand and walked out.

At this time, the old general walked in from the door with a dark face. With a loud "bang", the door was slammed shut by the old general from the inside.

"Is the purpose of your life just for a woman? Have you forgotten everything I taught you? Xiangdong, you disappoint me so much." The old general's face was gloomy. After receiving the news, he immediately rushed over, thinking of stabilizing Xiangdong first and then discussing the rescue. He was afraid that Xiangdong would act impulsively and give others a chance to talk about him. As a result, he heard such words, which made the old general who had been working hard to cultivate Xiangdong very disappointed.

"General, that's not what I meant. I..." Xiangdong hurriedly explained.

"Okay, you don't have to explain. Since you think the future of the entire base is not as important as a woman, then why should I force you to take on this responsibility? Since your heart is not here, I can't rest assured to leave the military to you. Well, go and save people." The old general suddenly felt a little powerless. He waved his hand, opened the door and left.

Xiangdong looked at the old general's back, who seemed to have suddenly lost most of his spirit, and felt extremely guilty. He disappointed the old general.

W City.

Two days later, the zombies focused on the broken bridge were finally almost eliminated by them. The ground within a few miles was full of zombie corpses.

All the superpowers looked at those corpses as if they were dreaming. They finally won.

The team rested for a long time, and Captain Qian called several captains of the mercenary team to discuss how to deal with the corpses of the zombies.

"With so many zombies, let alone digging out the crystal cores, even if we dig them out, those crystal cores are a huge number, and we can't take them away at all." Captain Zhou's point of view is very pertinent.

"Then what should we do? Are we just going to leave them here and not care about them?" A captain was a little unhappy. Their team lost several members here. After finally killing all these zombies, are these crystal cores just going to be left here?

"Then what do you say we should do? With so many zombies, it will take us forever just to dig for the crystal cores. When can we return to the base?" This is Captain Ding from the Cheetah Team. They have been out for ten days this time, and his wife and children are still waiting for him to return to the base. The mission was originally planned to take five or six days, but now it has exceeded it by two or three days, plus the journey will take another two days. They are probably worried about the consequences in the base.

"No, our team has suffered too much loss. Those team members still have families. Now that they are gone, how will they live in the future? Even for the sake of the future lives of those families, we must bring more crystal cores back." As soon as these words came out, several captains who had lost team members agreed very much.

Captain Qian saw that everyone had been arguing for a long time without reaching a conclusion, so he asked Li Xue who was sitting quietly on the side: "Captain Li, what do you think?"

"Me? I have no objection. If everyone wants to leave, our team will leave together. If you want to stay and dig for crystal cores, then stay and dig together." Li Xue said this, and she felt that it was the same as saying nothing.
