Chapter 223: Chapter 109 Temporary Farewell and Swearing-In Ceremony

Even though a night had passed, Zheng Tian’s mood had not relaxed.

Ever since yesterday when Ren Zhong went to meet Yang Bingzhong and then took a call from Lin Wang, the premonition of losing a golden opportunity had lingered in her heart.

At this moment, Ren Zhong was sitting in the back seat of the Thunderbolt Car with his eyes closed, resting.

Wen Lei, Ou Youning, and Bai Feng were in the cargo truck at the back.

Under normal circumstances, everyone actually only needed to take one car, but early this morning before departure, Mr. Ren, for some unknown reason, requested that both cars be taken.

Plagued by indecision, Zheng Tian wanted to ask several times but always hesitated to speak.

Since Ren Zhong did not speak up, she dared not ask.

Zheng Tian secretly glanced at Chen Hanyu beside her.

Chen Hanyu, as always, was calm, still looking down at her tablet.

Really envious of Hanyu’s carefree and worry-free attitude.

Hanyu, I understand all the logic you explained, but Mr. Ren is clearly going to abandon us!

Even if the sky were to fall, she remains so composed.

Could it be that the promise he made to you, saying he only trusts us in town, wasn’t just to comfort us?

This is just human nature, right?

Even thinking with your toes, you know that comparing taking us with him, this group of burdens, to joining Lin Wang’s team, the future prospects between the two are worlds apart.

Such an opportunity, even if it were me, I too couldn’t refuse.

Given Mr. Ren’s current abilities...

Sigh, aside from you, who can perfectly dismantle even Level Four crystal chips, we really don’t deserve to be his teammates. The gap is too big.

But then again, Mr. Ren is indeed different from ordinary wilderness people.

Even a goodbye can be so gentle.

He indeed cares about our feelings.

Unfortunately, we’re too weak.

Oh well, it’s rather fortunate.

It’s fortunate, Hanyu, that you’ve already tightly bonded with Mr. Ren. We’ll always have a chance.

Zheng Tian sighed softly again.

Ren Zhong, resting with his eyes closed, was not asleep.

He heard Zheng Tian’s long sighs and groans clearly.

He found it both funny and helpless.

He wasn’t angry.

This was just Zheng Tian.

It would be strange if she weren’t like this.

From the first time he met Zheng Tian, Ren Zhong understood her.

Perhaps it was precisely this overly utilitarian ambition that allowed her to bring Chen Hanyu, her childhood friend with a deep vendetta against Yang Bingzhong, to lurk in Starfire Town, walking the knife’s edge, surviving with difficulty until she met him.

"Zheng Tian, change direction."

"Ah? Where to?"

"Bone Valley."

"What! But... but the Demon Infant is inside! What if the Demon Infant fully awakens?"

Ren Zhong chuckled, "If the Level Six Demon Infant truly awakens, how much difference is there whether we are in Bone Valley or around Starfire Town?"

"Uh... that’s true."

Zheng Tian added, "But under normal circumstances, there are many Level Four Ruined Beasts in Bone Valley."

"Yes, I’m going for those Level Four Ruined Beasts."

"Huh?"

"Today, I’ll let you all see my true height now."

"Uh..."

...

On the way back, except for Ren Zhong, everyone’s heads were buzzing, including Chen Hanyu.

Partly from shock, partly from exhaustion.

Ren Zhong indeed carried them through but did not do everything alone.

He only took on the most challenging and dangerous breakthrough tasks, leaving other tasks such as finishing blows, flank cover, intercepting low-level Ruined Beasts, lookout, and baiting for the others.

He was deliberately cultivating Zheng Tian.

In the morning, the battle plans were made by Ren Zhong, but for every arrangement he made, he took the trouble to explain his intentions to Zheng Tian.

Zheng Tian was initially delighted, moved, and excited, and she earnestly learned.

But by the afternoon, Ren Zhong suddenly dropped the idea, only saying to Zheng Tian, "For these next two Level Four Ruined Beasts, study them a bit. I’ll give you half an hour to come up with a battle plan. These are my prepared countermeasures. This is my current combat strength and parameter details. Oh, my Brain Reaction Index has reached the standard of a Third Level warrior. My auditory nerve resonance has reached completion, and my visual nerve resonance has also made initial progress. My reactions in certain critical situations are much faster than those of ordinary Second Level Mechanical Warriors... In short, whether we are wiped out by these two Level Four Ruined Beasts today depends on your performance, Zheng Tian."

"Ah! What!"

Zheng Tian went from delight to fright.

Ren Zhong: "What? Not confident?"
