Something happened. This is not going to be bloody.

Li Xu looked around and saw a total of three cars parked on the side of the road. The first person to get out was also an acquaintance, Zhang Cheng, the captain of the Lightning Squad of Zhang City Base who had come with Wang Zheng. He was wearing a hat and had a friendly smile on his obviously darker and thinner face. He said loudly:

"I'm Zhang Cheng from the Lightning Squad at the Zhang City Base. We're all here at Liuzhuang to rest up. Please help me."

Li Xu jumped off the city wall, took a few steps forward after landing, and took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said:

"Captain Zhang, long time no see. I'm Li Xu. Welcome you. Tell the brothers to park the car. Let's come in and talk."

After a brief handshake between the two, Zhang Cheng asked the team members to park the car under the wall, and the group walked through the gate to the yard outside the base.

There were eleven people in the Thunder Team, who gradually sat down in the courtyard used for receptions at the Liuzhuang base. At this time, serving water to guests was a luxury, so the Thunder Team, who were just sitting there, didn't feel bad at all.

Fang Zhen asked Li Xu to go to the social event, and he continued to stand on the city wall and watch the situation.

Li Xu took a handwritten paper and placed it in front of Zhang Cheng and said:

"Captain Zhang, our place is small. You can decide what to eat and drink. Our conditions are limited, but we still have basic food."

Zhang Cheng took the paper and took a look at it. The prices were clearly marked on it, indicating the cost of accommodation, common food and fruits, water, and shower. He thought that Li Xu was taking advantage of him. However, the fact that there were fruits here showed the abilities of the psychics in the base.

Zhang Cheng joked:

"We are all poor people, so we won't order anything. We can just eat some dry food. We are just here to stay for one night. But the menu you brought, brother Li, represents the strength of your base. The roasted locusts on it are the same kind that ravaged everywhere last year. I didn't expect that your base still has some. Last winter was not easy. Fortunately, our base collected supplies everywhere in the early stage, so we survived the severe winter."

Li Xu didn't understand the other party's boasting. He thought Zhang Cheng was just showing off the strength of Zhang City Base. He smiled and nodded, acknowledging the origin of the locusts and the strength of his own base.

Zhang Cheng came here on purpose, and it was not as simple as just staying overnight as he said.

Last year, the Zhang City base suffered heavy losses. First, it was attacked by a large number of zombies, then a locust swarm passed through, and during that time there were also many attacks by mutant animals. The deaths of elite psychics and the consumption of supplies prompted the base's top management to issue a recruitment mission.

The Thunder Squad was already considered the elite squad of the base, but a year later more than half of their members had been killed or injured, and the current members were all new members who joined later, which shows how tragic and cruel the battles were.

Zhang Cheng's purpose this time was to persuade the people at Liuzhuang base to set off for Zhangshi base, so that everyone could unite and work hard to survive. But now he saw that they were living such a comfortable life and he didn't know how to convince them.

Seeing that the other party didn't want to order, Li Xu said directly:

"Captain Zhang, you guys should rest now. If it's too hot, go to the yard to cool down. If you need anything, go to the gate of the base and call for help. I'm on duty during the day, and there will be someone on duty at night."

Zhang Cheng thanked him with a smile.

A night passed like this, with no movement from either side.

Early the next morning, Zhang Cheng was thinking about how to win over people in the yard. When he looked up, he saw a familiar figure circling in the air. It was Wang Zheng who was patrolling the village. Before he could say hello, the figure had disappeared. A minute later, he saw Wang En, who was getting familiar with his superpowers, jumping up and down and disappearing from his sight.

Zhang Cheng's expression was somewhat shocked. Wasn't that Wang Zheng's brother? Now he had super powers. Would his final trump card still be successful?

While Zhang Cheng was in a daze, Li Xu knocked on the gate of the courtyard and shouted loudly:

"Captain Zhang, how was your rest? I came to bring you some food and collect the rent."

Zhang Cheng replied: "Brother Li, come in quickly."

There were exactly eleven tomatoes in the bamboo basket in Li Xu's hand. He said politely:

"Captain Zhang, how was your rest? We don't have much good stuff in this small place, so these tomatoes are a gift. Your team's accommodation fee for one night is 20 primary crystal cores. Captain Zhang, please settle the bill. I am also working for the base."

Zhang Cheng took out two intermediate crystal cores from his pocket and handed them to Li Xu. The value of these two intermediate crystal cores was higher than twenty primary crystal cores. He took the bamboo basket from the other party and saw the fresh tomatoes inside. He looked up in surprise and couldn't help asking:

"Do we have talents with planting abilities in our base?"

Li Xu smiled and didn't answer.

Zhang Cheng shouted to his teammates to share the tomatoes. He excitedly held Li Xu's hand and said:

"Brother Li, I have something I must tell you. Can you let me talk to the person in charge of your base? This matter is very important to you. Can you help me make an appointment with the person in charge of your base?"

Li Xu looked at the other person suspiciously and asked, "What's the important matter?"

"It's very important. I must tell the person in charge of the base. Please help me pass on this message."

Li Xu nodded, took the two crystal cores and left. This base was already led by Fang Zhen and his wife. After all, because of their daughter's powerful strength, the villagers respected their opinions.

Thirty minutes later, Zhang Cheng was invited to the gate of a farmhouse.

Li Xu said, "Captain Zhang, you can just go into the room. I still have to go on duty."

Zhang Cheng thanked them, and after they left, he stood at the gate of the yard, straightened his clothes with a rare nervousness, then strode into the yard and walked into the room.

The voice arrives before the person arrives:

"Hello, I'm Zhang Cheng, the captain of the Thunder Team at Zhang City Base. Li Xu asked me to come here. I have something I want to discuss with the person in charge of your base."

"come in."

When Zhang Cheng heard a woman's voice, he stared in shock for a moment, then adjusted his expression and walked into the house. What he saw was a very simple farmhouse outfit. A cute three-year-old girl with a pigtail was sitting upright on the kang, and there were two women sitting on chairs on the ground. He set his sights on the older woman.

Zhang Cheng thought to himself, as expected, it was the older woman who said "please sit down".

After Zhang Cheng sat down, he asked politely, "What's your name?"

"Ye Chaoqiu."

Zhang Cheng said politely:

"Hello, Ms. Ye. A lot of things have happened outside in the past year or so. Let me briefly explain. There are intelligent life forms in the ocean. They transform into human forms and lead mutated ocean monsters onto land and attack the creatures on land. The base in Jinshi has been occupied by ocean monsters. They are even slowly spreading outward with Jinshi as the center. The teams on missions from our base have fought with them several times. They are very powerful."

When Qian Rou heard this, she stared at Zhang Cheng in shock, then turned her head to look at Ye Chaoqiu to convey her shock.
