Gun Kai
Chapter 180 Contention IV
Li Cheng颐 ran wildly, cutting through a patch of shrubs.
With a whoosh, as he burst out again, the flower scale armor on his body had changed from gold to black.
On the black, segmented-bristle Flying Lian flower scale armor, the crocodile eyes on the helmet glowed faintly red.
He leaped. *Chi!*
His body dissolved into shadows.
Reappearing, he was already in the shade of a forest more than ten meters away.
In the shade, he knelt on one knee, his flower scale armor dissipating, returning to his normal appearance.
Silently standing up, Li Cheng颐 slowly came to a forest floor covered with fallen leaves.
Instead, he chose to walk back alone.
The base actually had quite a few hidden exits, and they were periodically filled in and changed.
"Let's just stick with Li Cheng. We're saying he might disappear any day now. Li Hong might live the longest, so we don't have to bother changing people," said Longmen Diao.
"By the way, Jiang Zhihen was also involved in entering the dead zone. When did you find out about that, Tangtang?" Cheng Ge颐 asked Rainbow Candy.
The final decision was to establish a company in the name of the Garden of Destiny, specializing in risk consulting services.
*Buzz.*
He still had doubts about entering the Yunshan County dead zone previously.
There was nothing in the hundreds-of-meters-long and narrow cavity.
"The so-called base, could it be this?" Cheng Ge颐 was speechless.
"It's okay, the master is waiting for you in the central hall.
Just as I was about to go to Yunshan County in the real world to find out.
Picking up his phone, it was an unfamiliar incoming number.
In the center, thick stone pillars supported a silvery-white, flat, alloy surface.
"Who is the most suitable to deal with that group of old men and women?" She scanned with her eyes.
"Charge them," Rainbow Candy suggested. "So many enter the dead zones every year. If they want help, they come to us. Clear pricing, materials corresponding to the type of dead zone, equipment packages needed, first-hand accounts from those who have experienced it, targeted training, common medicines, etc. All of this can make money.
"Lord, we've arrived," a somewhat familiar electronic voice sounded.
"I'll try too," Cheng Ge颐 said.
"I'll take a shot!" Xiao Zong was the first to speak. His eyes were still red. Since his brother's death, he had been in a depressed state, and didn't talk much. He walked into the elevator.
"Awesome!" Cheng Ge颐 gave a thumbs up.
Why hadn't I been pulled in when I came before? Finally, everyone unanimously decided that Rainbow Candy would be the representative of the Union.
Rainbow Candy for information consulting, Rainbow Candy for company network security, and I still provide intelligent device support.
"Sorry, I'm not called Cucumber anymore," the AI was a little dissatisfied.
A metal plate disguised as soil rose from the ground.
About ten seconds later.
"I used specialized medical testing equipment and tried it. This thing can't be detected, it's like it doesn't exist.
Longmen Diao's figure stood up from behind a few large boxes in the distance.
"Liu Tongbei invited us to join the Union, what do you think?" Cheng Ge颐 asked.
"Isn't this contributing to the team?" Rainbow Candy didn't care. "Is it settled outside now?"
"I heard that strengthening drugs are also divided according to safety levels? One to ten?" Longmen Diao asked.
"Don't decline, Li Cheng. Among the people here, Xiao Zong is a foreigner, impossible. What Longmen Diao is doing can't be brought to the table. The only suitable ones are Little Bear and you. Little Bear has a lot on his plate, and you're the only one with a lot of free time," Rainbow Candy persuaded.
Li Hong颐 and Xiao Hao were still the company's military force.
The cavity was elliptical, and the inner walls were all rough, crystal-like, brown stone.
Each crescent moon was only the size of a fingernail, but the color was very strange, with faint silver fluorescence flowing inside.
"I'm not suitable. What if one of you enters a dead zone while I'm in a meeting?" Cheng Ge颐 shook his head.
It felt very strange.
"What level is it?" Rainbow Candy quickly asked.
She seemed much better mentally, although she was strange.
The elevator doors opened.
Longmen Diao was speechless and could only cover his forehead, wanting to run away, but also feeling a little reluctant.
"What about you?" Cheng Ge頤 asked back.
The disguised alloy plate sank, returning to the previous fallen leaves and grass.
"Me? No way! A meeting takes several hours! You want me to sit there and daydream or doze off, I can't handle it!" Rainbow Candy firmly refused.
On the plate was an elevator cavity more than one meter wide and two meters high.
Stepping out of the elevator, in front of him was a long, flat, moving metal platform, like a conveyor belt, carrying him towards the largest flat surface in the center.
Why could I only enter this time?
"It should be the White Glove liaison from a faction of the Four Symbols," Little Bear judged.
"I checked," Little Bear and Xiao Zong walked out of a small house not far away.
Standing in the elevator.
"It's done." Li Hong頤 nodded. "I made a wish, but I don't know the specific effect."
Sure enough, there were also two deep blue crescent moons on his own left collarbone.
Cheng Ge颐 was speechless. Indeed, Rainbow Candy had contributed the most to this team.
It was like standing in a metal box, only vaguely feeling the elevator sinking, occasionally turning slightly in an arc.
Unexpectedly, they actually made it quite decent. "Hello... I'm Rainbow Candy's father."
"I tested it, can't take pictures. Any recording equipment can't observe this thing," Rainbow Candy said.
Cheng Ge颐 didn't drive back from the base with the others.
"It's quite well-repaired." The elevator slowly stopped.
While complaining to me through the earphones.
"It's only been a few days, it's good enough that it's this decent, right?!" Rainbow Candy was standing on the metal plate, waving to me from afar.
"I... I'll take a shot too!" Longmen Diao gritted his teeth. "Alright, if that's the case, then I'll go."
"Sorry, Yue Ji," Cheng Ge颐 remembered that he had just heard her change her name.
Inside was a narrow underground cavity.
"It was around the time the old boss made a wish. I guess this thing might have been brought by the Blue Book," Longmen Diao replied.
Little Bear was in charge of operations, Little Bear provided the venue, Little Bear provided the miscellaneous personnel, and Little Bear provided the daily expenses.
"When did you get them?" I asked.
There were only a few stone pillars supporting a metal plate like a piece of paper.
After all, life was precious, and no one wanted to waste their life with a group of old men and women every now and then.
A few small houses were scattered above. It was Little Bear who spoke. Li Cheng颐 was slightly surprised.
"You've finally said a sentence!" Rainbow Candy slapped him on the spot.
That was something Cheng Ge颐 hadn't expected. "Well said!" Cheng Ge頤 nodded.
"The quality of people in the dead zones is uneven, and there are quite a few antisocial ones. Do you think they're all good people like us?" Rainbow Candy didn't care.
This number could get through, so there was definitely no problem.
"The biological strengthening needles I ordered have arrived. Everyone can come here for free injections," Little Bear interjected.
He also tore open his collar, revealing two deep blue crescent moons.
The phone rang.
But the radiance field was still effective against the crescent moons.
"Moreover, we can use the official name for future actions to obtain more legitimacy and trust," Little Bear added.
"Yes. The higher the safety level, the more strengthening you get after success. But levels above seven are very expensive, and the safety is extremely low, with a fifty percent chance of dying. Not many people dare to inject," Little Bear replied with a smile.
But unlike the other numbers, this number was a bit awesome.
"It's me, Cucumber," Cheng Ge颐 quickly reacted.
"What are you praising him for!" Rainbow Candy slapped him again.
*Hiss.*
"In terms of effects... is it this?" Rainbow Candy suddenly tore open the collar of her shirt, revealing the position of her collarbone below her neck.
There was silence on the other end, and a low, powerful female voice sounded.
"You hit me even when I'm right?" Longmen Diao wanted to cry but had no tears.
He had heard Rainbow Candy say that she had built an underground base there, and originally thought it was just a small cave.
"Can't be detected, then we'll wait and see," Cheng Ge頤 reached out and gently touched the crescent moon, silently releasing his radiance field.
"In terms of profit, the extracts I cultivated in the garden can't last long. We need to think of a suitable profit cycle," Cheng Ge頤 said.
Leaving the base, he quickly returned to the main road.
With my physique, and such a low frequency of flash aptitude, it was impossible to enter.
"That's right, being able to have a base is already good. It's all thanks to you, Tangtang," Li Hong颐 said sincerely.
*Buzz.*
"That's right, maintaining social stability and security has always been what we've been doing. Joining the Union can really help us," Longmen Diao nodded in agreement.
"Don't look at this place, it doesn't have anything, but I moved the supercomputer from my home here. With Yue Ji's supercomputer support, plus a small nuclear power generator unit that I set up, the basic framework is up. As for the rest, we'll talk about it later," Rainbow Candy explained.
I paused for a second, pressed the answer button, and put it to my ear.
"Then everyone come!" Rainbow Candy directly decided.
Starting with 137, followed by four 0s.
"Isn't that too harsh?" Longmen Diao couldn't help but say. "People are about to die, and you're still making money off of them?"
No wonder Rainbow Candy's base was empty, she had maxed out all aspects of safety and concealment.
All four sides were smooth, silver-black metal surfaces.
But before, I had never entered the Yunshan County dead zone.
After a group of people continued to discuss the details, they then left the base from different exits.
Xiao Zong was responsible for equipment modification.
The company was symbolically funded by everyone with 100,000 each, and the profits would be split equally later.
"I just found out and notified you," Rainbow Candy replied. "Now it seems that Jiang Zhihen has probably been targeted by the Four Symbols people for a while."
Cheng Ge頤 narrowed his eyes, and suddenly tore open his own collar.
"It's you, Cucumber," Cheng Ge颐 quickly reacted.
"Hello? Who is this?"
Cheng Ge頤 thought about it, his phone had Rainbow Candy's network security monitoring to ensure safety. Now there were no more junk advertising numbers getting through.
"I... I have a lot to do too! I've invested tens of billions into this team! Li Cheng, if you have any conscience, if you're still a man, don't refuse, go!" Rainbow Candy decisively changed the subject.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Join, why not join?" Rainbow Candy said decisively, "We're very valuable for united front work. Establishing our own dead zone database, I've already organized a lot. After joining the Union, the benefits are too many, we can completely apply for official reserves of dead zone materials to supplement and improve."
"Most of my money is spent on engineering equipment and reinforcing the inner walls of this underground cave! We'll slowly improve it later when we have time, but safety issues must not be ignored," Rainbow Candy said seriously.
After the group determined the strengthening plan, they continued to determine a cycle model for profiting from the dead zones.
On the snow-white collarbone skin, there were two blue crystal-like crescent moons that had appeared sometime ago.
"They are all level one introductory strengthening drugs, they are not expensive, the main thing is that gene strengthening must be done gradually, and you have to train to digest the drugs, otherwise the effect is not good, not to mention it may cause drug deposits in the body, producing strong side effects," Little Bear replied.
Longmen Diao was responsible for intelligence gathering, and gray and white matters were his responsibility to solve.
