Chapter 315 Overestimating One's Abilities
Tang Xiaoyu stepped in front of Qin Nianshu, "Stop talking nonsense! Does the rule say you can't ask for help? If you're so capable, go ask for help yourself! You're just jealous of others when you're incompetent; that's the problem!"
And what's with the way you're talking to my friend? She's just a child! How dare you report on a little kid? Shameless! Come at me if you have a problem with her!
Qin Nianshu peeked out from behind Tang Xiaoyu, her eyes sparkling.
Seeing this, Meng Shiwan couldn't help but smile slightly.
Another key figure has joined the effort to warm up Qin Nianshu.
This girl is also smart. She probably saw that Qin Nianshu was sensitive, suspicious, irritable, and lacked love, which is why she stepped forward to stand in front of Qin Nianshu at this time.
Judging from Qin Nianshu's expression, she does seem to be quite receptive to this approach.
Look how happy that child is.
The group became even angrier.
One of the men, his hand trembling with anger, pointed at Qin Nianshu's nose and cursed, "She's a child? Look at her, she doesn't look like a child at all. She's a ruthless killer. Don't think that just because you're hanging out with this devil, we can't do anything to you. And don't be too arrogant. We'll see how we deal with you later."
Qin Nianshu's bright eyes slowly turned cold, and when she looked at these people again, her gaze was that of someone looking at a group of dead people.
These people, oblivious to the fact that they had offended someone, questioned Meng Shiwan, "Base Commander, isn't what they're doing really against the rules? This is very unfair to the other participants."
Before Meng Shiwan could speak, Qin Nianshu suddenly said quietly, "I think you're right. It's really unfair of me to help the three of them obtain level-two crystal cores. To be fair, I'll give you some level-two crystal cores as well. Wouldn't that be fair?"
How many people: ? ? ?
"Oh...this isn't a good idea, is it?"
Their indignant words were instantly silenced; they were momentarily speechless in the face of Qin Nianshu's enthusiasm.
Qin Nianshu turned to Peng Lihui and Song Fei and said, "Give them half of your crystal cores."
Peng Lihui and Song Fei were also stunned for a moment. Then, following Qin Nianshu's instructions, Song Fei took off the cloth bag containing the crystal cores from his body and threw it in front of the dozen or so people.
They weren't particularly generous, because they knew that, given Qin Nianshu's personality, she wouldn't be so easy to talk to.
This girl is probably plotting something bad.
Their actions left the dozen or so indignant people completely bewildered.
Seeing that a bag of level-two crystal cores was actually thrown in front of them and they didn't want it anymore, the burly man in the lead was a little incredulous, "You're really giving us these crystal cores?"
Qin Nianshu scoffed, "It's just a crystal core, nothing special. I gave it to you, is that fair now?"
Someone with quick eyes and hands stepped forward to pick it up, and upon opening it, found over a thousand level-two crystal cores. Their eyes immediately shone brighter than the crystal cores themselves.
The man nodded quickly, "That's enough, that's enough. What's this talk of fairness? There are no rules. As long as we can get the crystal cores, that's all that matters. We were too narrow-minded before."
The burly man looked at Qin Nianshu warily and whispered to the person who picked up the crystal core, "This girl is unpredictable. It's strange that she suddenly gave us a crystal core."
The man, clutching the crystal core, grinned greedily. "You're overthinking it. She just wants to settle things after we made a scene in front of the base chief. She's right, she can control zombies and has as many crystal cores as she wants. She won't care about these things."
Qin Nianshu's eyes grew increasingly cold.
These people don't feel it's unfair; they just feel that they're not the ones who can cheat.
Look at their faces now, they're more greedy than anyone else.
Qin Nianshu turned around. "Let's go."
We still need to go into the city to continue searching for zombies.
The three followed her away. Song Fei asked in a low voice, "Are you really just letting them go like that? If the others get the news, they'll probably all make a scene like this."
Qin Nianshu sneered, "How could that be? It would be too lonely to have only one corpse hanging on the overpass. It seems we should hang a few more."
Upon hearing this, and recalling the person hanging on the overpass, the three couldn't help but shudder.
These people who have messed with Qin Nianshu are really in for a world of trouble.
Seeing them disperse, Meng Shiwan didn't bother with their past grievances.
These people resent those who have and laugh at those who don't, and they themselves are insatiable. Whatever their fate is, it's all the karma they brought upon themselves, and they deserve it.
She walked over to Wu Ming and asked, "Any news from the seed base?"
The zombies in Shangguan City have evolved, with batches of level two zombies appearing, and ordinary people have no idea what's going on.
Those who have been paying close attention to the Black Cube and have always wanted to seize its Creation Base would immediately guess that the Black Cube is located within Shangguan City.
Given their strong interest in the black cube, they certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity to find it.
Meng Shiwan had previously asked Wu Ming to inform the seed base in Shangguan City to pay attention to the situation in and around Shangguan City.
The prices Meng Shiwan offered for the power-enhancing fluid and card space to the Seed Base were reasonable. The Seed Base was quite willing to help with this small favor as long as Meng Shiwan asked.
Wu Ming said, "We have news. They discovered a group of suspicious superhumans in the southern suburbs. They didn't enter the city; instead, they found something resembling a black cube in a latrine in the suburbs, put it in a box, and left in a hurry."
According to information gathered by the Seed Base, that group of superhumans appears to be from the Fierce Bear Base.
Meng Shiwan smiled faintly, "As expected."
The level of attention that the Chuangyuan Base pays to the Black Cube means that they will absolutely not miss any opportunity to find it.
Having learned from their previous two defeats at Meng Shiwan's hands, Chuangyuan Base did not send its own people this time, but instead tricked Liexiong Base into becoming cannon fodder.
The last time the people from the Fierce Bear Base came to cause trouble, she learned that the Creation Origin Base had given the Fierce Bear Base a lot of ability-enhancing liquid at a low price.
It seems that the Fierce Bear Base and the Creation Origin Base have indeed joined forces.
Chuangyuan Base wants to use Liexiong Base as the vanguard to deal with Dawn Base.
The Fierce Bear Base wants the Ability Enhancement Fluid from the Creation Origin Base.
Regarding their collaboration, Meng Shiwan can only say that they are overestimating their abilities.
"Once they discover that the black cube they brought back is fake, they will definitely send more people, maybe even more. Next time, I'll make sure they don't leave alive."
In other words, Meng Shiwan was unable to leave the Dawn Base during its initial construction phase.
Whenever she had a spare moment, she would immediately take down the Fierce Bear Base.
Wu Ming frowned. "What exactly is this black cube? Why is the Chuangyuan Base so relentlessly pursuing it? What does the Chuangyuan Base know?"
These are also the questions Meng Shiwan wants to know.
Meng Shiwan snorted coldly, "One day, the truth will come to light."
These conspiracies and schemes annoyed her, and she was determined to tear down the veil of secrecy and find out the whole truth.
