Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse
Chapter 751: The Fame of Dragon Ruler

Chapter 751: Chapter 751: The Fame of Dragon Ruler

Wang Liang didn’t actually understand what Han Yue had sent Zhang Mingxu to do; he only knew that since it involved the Heart Talk Team, he had to deliver the message.

So, after he returned to his place, he tried to recall the contents of the note from Han Yue and drew a similar one.

That’s all I can do, Wang Liang sighed to himself.

On a palm-sized piece of paper, Wang Liang had written down two team names: Heart Talk Team and Dragon Ruler; next to them were two dates, and both team names were encircled and pointed to a question mark...

What does this mean?

Wang Liang scratched his head but still folded up the paper, ready to send it to the Wei Family.

During this time, he hadn’t just been delivering messages about the Wei Family.

Due to the increasing shortage of supplies, the Han Family had tried to employ various connections to bring some of the Wei Family’s Space Element Ability Users over to their side. This was also thanks to Wang Liang delivering a list of Space Element Ability Users who had been targeted by the Han Family.

Although the Wei Family’s control of base supplies wasn’t all placed with the Space Element Ability Users, this list greatly assisted them.

Before the Han Family could make a move, they found various excuses to clear out some of the more important items from those Ability Users’ space, refraining from taking everything out to avoid suspicion from the Han Family.

After all, human hearts are unpredictable, and they didn’t have the confidence to retain so many Space Element Ability Users. Eventually, some of the listed Space Element Ability Users defected to the Han Family—some couldn’t resist the temptations offered by the Han Family, and some couldn’t withstand the persuasion of family or friends within the base and thus joined the Han Family.

Although this incident had left the Wei Family feeling frustrated, it was thanks to Wang Liang’s message that they were aware of it at all, saving them from potentially significant losses.

"Actually, it’s all thanks to the Heart Talk Team; they made sure Wang Liang didn’t only focus on messages concerning them but also included our family," Wei Junhao said, holding the message Wang Liang had brought today.

"What did he bring today?"

Wei Wei was fiddling with a pot of vegetables together with Mu Yunle, who curiously watched Wei Wei accelerate the growth of a vegetable sprout, clapping with delight as it grew larger.

"A drawing?"

Wei Junhao studied the scant information on the paper. It seemed to be related to the Heart Talk Team? Was the Han Family suspecting that Dragon Ruler was connected to the Heart Talk Team?

"Since it is related to them, let’s get someone to deliver it quickly, so as not to delay their affairs," Wei Wei suggested.

"Yes, I’ll have someone take it immediately," Wei Junhao agreed. He knew of the reputation of Dragon Ruler but had never encountered them.

It was rumored that Dragon Ruler was a mysterious supplier team roaming the post-apocalyptic world, led by a man named Chen Daming. They would trade the supplies they found for Crystal Cores with various bases along their route, holding a very high status in people’s minds. But what did they have to do with the Heart Talk Team?

"No wonder the Han Family has set their sights on them, probably coveting their supplies," Wei’s Mother Sheng Lanying commented as she came out of the kitchen. She had just finished kneading a large bowl of mixed grain dough with the family’s maid Hong Pei. They had all heard of Dragon Ruler and were naturally curious, but they hoped that Dragon Ruler wouldn’t fall into the hands of the Han Family.

"Didn’t your younger uncle mention that Tang Xue was also going to the S City Base to meet people? Why not have our people follow along and deliver the message," Wei Wei suggested, recalling the matter.

Tang Xue was a biologist supported by the Wei Family. Even before the apocalypse, she was a research scientist with a Ph.D., and it was she who first proposed studying the origin of the apocalypse.

"That irritable woman with the dark circles oh, now that you mention it, I remember too. Let’s have Luo Hongyi join her team,"

Wei Junhao nodded. Luo Hongyi currently lacked opportunities to go out and practice, and since his special ability level was high, it would be reassuring to have him out there. However, Tang Xue was not the easiest person to get along with; he hoped that Luo Hongyi wouldn’t complain about this arrangement.

...

After the news that Dragon Ruler had arrived in F city spread, many people from N city’s base and even from B city’s base flocked to F city’s base to purchase supplies. This forced Lin Xiuyuan and his group, who had originally planned to sell for a week and leave, to stay longer.

"Damn, this is actually true? There really is a team called Dragon Ruler selling supplies?"

"I came here just to try my luck, and I really hit the jackpot,"

"It’s worth the long trip we made. Many of my friends didn’t believe it, and now they’re going to regret it to death,"

"..."

The base in F city became livelier and livelier, and the rental housing area was swamped. Numerous people were also inquiring how long Dragon Ruler would stay because they planned to have someone go back and bring more of their relatives and friends to purchase supplies.

"Fellow base comrades from other cities, there’s no need to rush. If you wish to purchase supplies, please line up at the ticketing area to get a number tag. We will call people in order to enter the purchasing area, so please cooperate!"

Wang Yongnan shouted through a megaphone.

This was a solution thought up by Wan Anran. Having a numbering system meant Dragon Ruler would know how many people were in line, and the purchasing area inside the small western-style house had been equipped with measures to protect the customers’ privacy.

Because there had been incidents of special ability users with malicious intent targeting customers who purchased a large amount of supplies and were alone, now only those with a called number could enter the purchasing area.

If a team without a space element ability user needed to transport their purchased supplies, they could even spend money to hire dedicated delivery personnel from the base to deliver the goods to their doorstep, which greatly protected everyone’s privacy and improved the stability of the base.

Lu Hao also thought this was a very good practice, as it meant no one would know exactly how much supplies Dragon Ruler had really sold.

Like the 26-person team in front of them, they were actually going to purchase supplies worth 800,000 crystal cores.

"Brother, you guys have saved up quite a bit of crystal cores,"

Lin Xiuyuan said while the family was counting the crystal cores.

"We’ve been saving for two years. How could we have little? If it weren’t for the loss of a teammate earlier, there were still more than a hundred thousand crystal cores in his space,"

A brawny man with a scar on his face said regretfully. Since then, they had learned the lesson not to put all their eggs in one basket and had distributed the team’s crystal cores and supplies for separate management.

"You’re from B city’s base?"

Lu Hao asked, having heard clues in their conversation.

Caught off guard for a moment, the somewhat slender glasses man still replied, "Yes, we came here from B city’s base."

"Ah haha, we’ve only been here for a few days, and they’re already talking about it in B city’s base?"

Lin Xiuyuan asked casually.

"You... do you not know how famous you are now?"

The glasses man adjusted his glasses and asked.
