Chapter 680: 365 If you don’t want to die, get lost!_2

Deng Hong, who was opposite, was originally smug, thinking that Bai Zhengli and his companions were doomed this time, but he didn’t expect the bullet to actually reflect back! His expression changed, and he hurriedly fired another one, hitting the reflected bullet exactly.

The two bullets collided mid-way, and with a "bang," a huge flame erupted!

At the same time, Deng Hong squinted his eyes, warily looking towards the direction of the convoy, realizing from just that move alone that the people who had come this time were not easy to deal with!

He couldn’t help but regret internally, wishing he hadn’t snatched this mission; it would have been much better to let someone else take it! Initially, he thought that Peace Base was just a small base, whose leader, besides being able to communicate with animals and having contracted quite a few Mutant Beasts and Mutated Birds, had no other great abilities. Taking down Peace Base seemed too easy, which was why he had snatched the mission deliberately.

Where would he have thought that a group of Chen Yaojin would suddenly appear on the way! Who in the world were these people? They really minded others’ business too much!

He felt immensely frustrated, his face gloomy. Just as he was about to fire another bullet, someone next to him suddenly said, "Captain Deng, please think thrice! Before we left, the leader specifically instructed that ammunition is limited and absolutely must not be wasted!" After saying that, he even intentionally glanced at the rocket launcher Deng Hong was carrying on his shoulder, the meaning quite clear.

Deng Hong’s face flushed red with what he said, and he also felt somewhat disgruntled. It was just a few rocket shells, after all. Ji Chengtian was being too stingy! After all the diligent work he had done for Ji Chengtian these days, could it not even account for a few rocket shells? Moreover, it wasn’t like he was wasting them on purpose. Was there a need to embarrass him publicly like this?

Thinking of this, he darkly glanced at the person who had just spoken, and realized it was his deputy, who was also a Third-level Superpower User. Deng Hong had previously thought highly of this person, who seemed capable of handling anything well. But now, he gradually sensed that something was off.

Why did this person dare to speak to him like that just now? Could it be that this person no longer regarded him highly? Suddenly, an unprecedented sense of crisis surged in Deng Hong’s heart. He gradually realized that besides having decent abilities, he had many shortcomings, unlike this person before him, who was not only intelligent and handsome, but also managed everything in perfect order, completely qualified to replace him outright!

The more Deng Hong thought about it, the more upset he felt. His gaze at the other person involuntarily conveyed a bit of murderous intent. The deputy saw it, his gaze flicking slightly, but his face maintained a perfectly appropriate smile as he continued to say to Deng Hong, "This time, the people might be formidable. It’s better to outsmart them. We only have slightly over a thousand people here; once a fight breaks out, it will be very disadvantageous."

If it were before, Deng Hong would certainly have listened to his advice. But now, having realized that this person was likely to replace him, his mind was filled with intense crisis, leaving no room to genuinely consider this person’s suggestions. Even the perfectly placed smile on the person’s face felt unbearably irritating to Deng Hong, as if plotting against him!

So, he directly said discontentedly, "What do you know? Even if we only have around a thousand people, so what? Could the other side possibly be a match for us? If you don’t know, don’t bother directing blindly; I know what to do!"

Having said this, not giving the other person a chance to retort, he pushed him aside, reloaded and fired again towards Bai Zhengli’s direction! As expected, this rocket was again stopped by the other side.

The person next to Deng Hong cursed silently, calling him a fool, but since Deng Hong was the team leader, if he were to argue with Deng Hong now, it would only provide an opportunity for these people, which vexed him greatly!

As he saw the rocket fired again coming back towards them, Deng Hong, who was already prepared, fired another shot, hitting it, feeling even worse inside, and his murderous gaze towards his deputy grew even stronger!

Although Deng Hong’s ability was not bad, he was not a killer, nor would he harm his own brothers. But this time, the sense of crisis in his heart was just too strong! He always felt that his deputy was going to replace him, which harbored a bias in his mind. Just now, his deputy had tried to stop him and he hadn’t listened, resulting in two rocket shells wasted.

Deng Hong knew well that this couldn’t be concealed. Once they returned to Chengtian Base, Ji Chengtian would definitely settle accounts with him! Not only that, his own prestige might also be affected because of this!

As he thought about it, he subconsciously turned his head to look at the others’ expressions, and sure enough, he saw many people watching him and his deputy with ambiguous and suspicious eyes.

Deng Hong panicked inside and quickly said, "Don’t worry, I will handle this!" This time, the deputy said nothing, just quickly glanced at him and then lowered his eyes.

Deng Hong picked up the megaphone and threatened, "Do you all know the consequences of provoking Chengtian Base? I advise you, if you don’t want to die, you better..."

But before he could finish, Bai Zhengli’s voice had already sounded, "If you don’t want to die, get lost! Don’t make me say it a third time!"

Deng Hong’s mood was already very bad, and hearing this, he became even more infuriated, repeatedly saying, "You won’t leave, huh? Since you don’t want to leave, then just stay here!" With that, he suddenly ordered, "Rocket team, take aim, and fire!"

However, the people did not obey his command, instead looking at him hesitantly. One of them, more daring, said, "Captain, we don’t have enough rocket shells. The leader said we must conserve them."

This was almost the same as what the deputy had said earlier. Hearing this, Deng Hong felt that these people had all been bought over by the deputy, and he immediately got so angry that his face twisted: "You... you..."
