Chapter 147: Chapter 85 Day 30, A Standout Warrior Returns to the Arena_4

On the table with an automatic refrigerator combined with a dining table, exuding a sense of technology, were an array of high-end, naturally organic foods such as roasted and braised dishes, sauce-braised pig knuckles, and steamed large fish from Meiwei Xian.

It’s rare to see Hanyu in a dress, and she was placing bottles of fruit wine on the table one after another.

Such liveliness wasn’t because of the approaching New Year, but because today was the team’s moving day.

Starting today, Zheng Tian’s team no longer had to squeeze into rooms with other teams in the communal sleeping pods.

The original brick-and-tile courtyard had been transformed into a small estate with fully alloyed walls and three little fortresses.

This entire setup was the second-generation Iron Curtain system.

The system was already quite old and nearly unusable, having been through several hands.

The team purchased it for 2000 points from the wandering merchant Wang Zhaofu and had it repaired by Ju Qingmeng herself, costing another 1500 points.

Ren Zhong paid 2000 points, while the rest of the team contributed collectively and used public funds to make up the 1500 points.

Although the second-generation Iron Curtain system was not as good as Lin Wang’s estate, it was more than enough to deal with Second Level Ruined Beasts.

Combined with the alloy sleeping pods, the safety factor of sleeping overnight was higher than relying on the amateur Night Watchman responsible for the communal sleeping pod rotations.

Zheng Tian originally didn’t want to be so extravagant, but since the team hadn’t passed the Second-Level certificate test and needed to control their military equipment level appropriately, to avoid exposing their all-Second-Level strength, they could only base their personal equipment on the First Level with Ju Qingmeng’s modifications.

The entire team had now completed their re-outfit, each equipped with an official wrist watch. Holding onto the money was meaningless, and it was time to consider the next step. With Wang Zhaofu’s timely arrival, everyone went with the flow and set up this base.

Ren Zhong joked and laughed with everyone when the doorbell rang.

Ou Youning opened the door, the smile on his face broadened, and he turned back to shout inside, "Brother Ren, Captain Ma is here to see you."

Everyone inside enthusiastically stood up to greet him.

Ma Xiaoling ignored the others and called Ren Zhong out alone, saying, "Ren Zhong, Lin Wang’s team received a big order. They’re heading out tomorrow to take on the escort duty. Once they return, Starfire Resources might show their hand. What’s your plan?"

"What hand?"

"We’ve heard that the boss of Starfire Resources is quietly transferring assets. They might move out more than a month earlier than expected."

Ren Zhong furrowed his brows, "When will Lin Wang’s team return?"

"Not sure, but definitely not in just a day or two."

"Wait, did your father send you to ask this?"

"Uh."

"Should I go discuss with your father instead?"

...

The private reception room on the second floor of the town government.

Ma Dafu looked at Ren Zhong with displeasure, "Why did you set up a base in the town? Isn’t this redundant? Once Starfire Resources relocates, the Scavengers in town will lose their supply immediately. The town will surely become chaotic. I wanted to provide a final bit of peace for the wilderness people, but I couldn’t. We don’t have much time. What you should do now is take advantage of Lin Wang’s team, which monitors and limits you, being temporarily away, and quickly elevate your prestige among the wilderness people to lead them out before they return."

Faced with Ma Dafu’s interrogation, Ren Zhong found himself speechless.

He really wanted to tell Comrade Old Ma that he genuinely wished to preserve the town.

But even though this was Old Ma’s greatest hope, if it came from Ren Zhong’s mouth, it would sound too far-fetched and damage Ren Zhong’s persona as "Sun Miao’s colleague."

Thus, Ren Zhong could only shake his head mysteriously, "We all agree that the timing isn’t right yet. If I rally the cry now, at most, I could only lead away one to two thousand people. What about the rest? There are still two months until the Pu Cha, you should trust our capabilities."

Ma Dafu frowned, "’We’?"

Ren Zhong nodded solemnly, "Yes, ’we’."

The murky eyes of Ma Fatty seemed to brighten once again.

Ren Zhong had created a new background persona, giving Old Ma new hope.

Because he didn’t want to see Old Ma give up first.
