Lin Xi looked at Yue Chi.
Yue Chi glanced indifferently at the utterly hypocritical Xin Ning and said, "No, it's just that a few instructors from the military region happened to see your performance and wanted to test you."
Lin Xi felt that something was not right.
Why her and Jiang Chuan?
Logically speaking, Yun entered level seven earlier than Jiang Chuan, and his special ability is also a unique ice-type ability. If they wanted to test them because of their outstanding performance, they should have called Yun along.
After thinking it over, Lin Xi said, "Using a potentially fatal mission to test them? Besides, we're now part of the city guard team, not under the military region's jurisdiction, right?"
Xin Ning's smile faded. "So? What are your thoughts?"
"You yourself said you were borrowing people, and this matter is not within our scope of responsibility. We would be risking our lives to go, so what benefits would we get after this mission is completed?"
Yue Chi looked at Lin Xi, wondering why.
The person in front of him seemed to have a different aura than the person he had previously fought.
I used to think he and Lin Xi were quite similar, but looking at her behavior now, it always seems a bit offensive.
"Benefits?" Xin Ning clearly hadn't expected her to ask that. She looked at Yue Chi, somewhat uncertainly, and said, "There should... be some, right?"
Yue Chi shrugged. "Don't look at me, I don't know."
“Alright then, I’ll make the decision.” Xin Ning pondered for a moment and then said, “I’ll pay out of my own pocket and give each of you four mid-grade crystal cores.”
Lin Xi smiled dismissively. "That's it? Do you think I'm stupid? You think I'd risk my life for just four mid-grade crystal cores?"
Xin Ning felt somewhat awkward.
After all, it would cost her eight mid-level crystal cores for the two of them, which was no small amount for her.
After all, for people like them who undergo intense training, the crystal cores are usually absorbed as soon as they are distributed.
Being able to save eight is already quite an achievement, okay?
"How about we allow you to advance directly in the next internal selection competition?"
Lin Xi looked at her strangely, "Who is your identity? Can you make decisions? Besides, with my abilities, do I need you to give me special treatment?"
Xin Ning was in a dilemma.
Just as she was thinking about how to persuade him, Lin Xi made an outrageous demand, "I don't care about him, I want 20 mid-level crystal cores by myself."
Xin Ning looked at her with a look of horror.
Is this a robbery?
Lin Xi pointed at Jiang Chuan, whose face was as black as charcoal.
His eyes looked as if he wanted to draw his sword and chop Lin Xi down the next second.
Ma Haoyu also felt embarrassed and subconsciously lowered his head to avoid looking at them.
The third brother's face makes him seem like he's been around the streets before.
They seem quite skilled at extortion and blackmail!
How embarrassing, so incredibly embarrassing.
These are people he trained.
However, as long as he doesn't speak, they can treat him like he's invisible.
Then it wouldn't be him who would feel awkward.
Jiang Chuan said coldly, "I can go, and I don't need any payment."
Yue Chi raised an eyebrow, somewhat incredulous at his words.
No payment?
Ma Haoyu was also slightly shocked.
What was this child thinking?
What's wrong? Is life worthless?
It would be better to follow the example of the third brother and ask for some crystal cores.
Lin Xi looked at Jiang Chuan with an expression as if he were an idiot.
However, she was faking it.
Having spent so much time with Jiang Chuan, she knew his personality all too well.
A martial arts fanatic would be more than happy to take on a high-difficulty mission.
Moreover, with his current level seven superpower, he already has enough confidence to escape unscathed, which is why he agreed so readily.
Xin Ning looked at him with great admiration, "What our military region needs is a brave, fearless, and selfless young man like you!"
This statement subtly implied something about Lin Xi.
But the person involved was feigning ignorance, asking, "When are you going to give me those twenty mid-level crystal cores?"
Xin Ning stammered, "Um... I don't have that much. I'll apply to the military region for you later."
Yue Chi turned around and secretly curled the corners of his mouth.
It's quite amusing to see the smiling tiger get its comeuppance.
Xin Ning quickly changed the subject, "There's no time to lose. Since we've decided to go, let's set off now."
...
"Let me give you a brief introduction first." Yue Chi crossed his arms, and when his gaze fell on Jiang Chuan, it was as if he were looking at a stranger.
"This time, our teammates were on a mission when they accidentally discovered a zombie hideout on the other side of the bridge."
"The weakest zombie in this hideout is a mid-level zombie, and according to our team member, he personally saw at least two high-level zombies."
Lin Xi said, "Eliminate zombie dens? Don't you guys always say that zombies can live freely like humans?"
"If they behave themselves, we certainly won't take any action. Unfortunately, according to our observations, they are very active and even want to plant spies in our Worry-Free Island."
"In that case, we have no choice but to take action."
"So this mission is classified as high-level, with two high-level zombies in charge. Moreover, there are an unknown number of mid-level zombies inside, so there is indeed a risk of losing your life this time."
Jiang Chuan stared at his profile for a long while. "Yue Chi, when did you arrive at Wuyou Island?"
Yue Chi looked at Jiang Chuan through the rearview mirror and said, "Just a month after that match, during the game, each of us was given a small card with a simple map on it."
Jiang Chuan nodded. "I see."
Lin Xi hadn't expected that Yin had such a backup plan before leaving.
So, is the Colosseum in the capital really just a place to select talent for the military region?
Because Yin knew their identities, she did not give them the card.
Because Worry-Free Island doesn't want to be targeted and destroyed by any force before it can develop properly.
Lin Xi thought to herself, "This has really taken a very long and winding road."
This was the third time Lin Xi had stepped onto the bridge, but she had no interest in appreciating the scenery outside. Instead, she was repeatedly pondering the military region's intention in specifically requesting the two of them.
Before I could come up with a solution, the car had already reached the other side.
After driving for about twenty more minutes, they finally stopped in front of a room.
Lin Xi looked at the building in front of her and was speechless for a moment.
Isn't this Xiao Lao Si's place?
Good heavens, they were discovered!
Also, when did they get two more high-level zombies?
No one has reported this yet!
Since they're family, we can't let them all get wiped out.
She had to think of a way to quickly notify the people inside to evacuate.
"Are you guys sure you can handle this? Should I go in and scout ahead first?"
Xin Ning smiled and said, "It's too dangerous for one person to go in alone. Let's go together."
Xin Ning was just going through the motions; the matter of her making an outrageous demand hadn't even been forgotten yet.
However, it's still necessary to put on a show of politeness.
