Chapter 255: Chapter 119: The Immense Potential Danger of High-IQ Criminals_4

In order to "save Ren Zhong," he spent half a million, but it went down the drain.

He thought it was over; this time he was definitely doomed.

In fact, speaking purely about the value of the equipment, he thought the entire team’s full assets might be able to buy a new Screw Rock Excavator.

But Yu Junren didn’t care about money; perhaps this incident also involved his promotion.

So he wanted to execute everyone as a warning to make an example, to account to higher-ups, and to sound a warning for mining workers throughout Source Star.

Lin Wang was very unwilling, but helpless.

Yet Ren Zhong miraculously survived and picked up a large mineral stone, making a windfall.

The real value of this large mineral stone was definitely not just fifty thousand, and it might even be worth a Screw Rock Excavator.

Otherwise, Yu Junren’s attitude wouldn’t have changed so quickly just now.

Moreover, the damage to the Screw Rock Excavator wasn’t severe, simply put.

So, in the end, Lin Wang and the other five people were also retrieved from the Ghost Gate.

This was indeed Ren Zhong’s credit.

"Hey, Captain... Was my performance okay?"

Ren Zhong asked with a cheerful smile.

Lin Wang looked at him deeply, "It’s quite good. In a way, you saved our lives."

"Ah, it’s just that I was too stupid. If I had been more careful on the scouting path, I wouldn’t have fallen for the trap of the mud cave leeches."

"It’s okay; as long as you’re alive, anything is possible. By the way, you’re not short of money now, you still owe me 235,000..."

Ren Zhong hesitated for a moment and said in a pleading tone, "Captain, I... I want to save some money. Manager Ju helped me slightly modify the design so that my armor better suits my personal characteristics. Once I adapt, it won’t be long before I can try solo hunting Third Level or even weaker Level Four Ruined Beasts. Can you let me pay you back slowly?"

Lin Wang hesitated a bit, "Alright."

"Thank you for understanding, Captain."

"We’re like family. No need to thank me." Lin Wang waved his hand, "Yu gave you a day off, so you can rest well today and tomorrow. Actually, some people from the entertainment industry came to the command center the past two days, and they’re of high quality. Yesterday that woman wasn’t generous enough; she only covered the food, not the fun. But you can go and have some fun yourself. You’ve made a fortune; you should enjoy yourself a bit."

Ren Zhong seemed to grit his teeth and said, "I can’t just focus on myself; I’ll go up and arrange something. Once everyone gets off work tonight, I’ll treat everyone to a meal and some fun in your name. How about that?"

Lin Wang raised an eyebrow, "Number 43, covering food and fun isn’t simple. It’d cost ten thousand points."

Ren Zhong gritted his teeth again, "Spending ten thousand points to show gratitude should be appropriate. Although I survived due to my good luck, you guys took risks to save me."

"Alright, then it’s settled. Well, we’re going back to the mines. You go back to the dorm and rest."

Ren Zhong returned to the dormitory.

He did not walk through the high-sensitivity full-body scanner.

After collecting the mineral stone, Yu Junren didn’t bother him anymore.

This was a psychological deception tactic.

He was a lucky survivor.

He was also the weakest Second Level professional in the entire mining team.

He could not possibly have the courage and ability to be a thief.

He was incredibly lucky, finding a valuable Second Level mineral stone during a life-and-death escape.

The joy and anticipation on his face when he brought out the Second Level mineral stone showed not the slightest falsity.

He even found two mineral stones in one day, but the other one was swallowed and quickly digested by a mud cave leech.

He couldn’t possibly have the luck to find a third one.

He also passed all the lie detector tests conducted by psychological experts.

In short, he couldn’t possibly have a larger mineral stone.

But he really did.

And it was the only one in the entire Chenhui Mine, located at one of the two central magnetic nodes in the entire mining area—a First Level mineral stone.

At the other First Level node, another Level Five Ruined Beast was entrenched.

Actually, Ren Zhong almost encountered it, but with premeditated calculations, he noticed the abnormal radiation index there and quietly slipped away in advance.

Everything was under his control.

The harmfulness of top-level high-intelligence criminals is really enormous.

[Recommendation ticket slot. This Chapter is five hours late, really tired today, writing slowly. The next Chapter will be at eight o’clock tomorrow morning]

[PS: I’ve made slight adjustments to the content of the previous Chapter, reducing the number of professional team deaths in the previous eight days to 5 people, and adjusting the remaining mining workers to 43. At the same time, I’ve moved the appearance time of the first small mineral stone forward to the seventh day. This makes the logic more precise, please be informed.]
