Chapter 765: Chapter 762: Receiving Supplies

Lin Tian opened the message and saw that it was a list, a list of the resources from the Shrine. Research materials on Gu techniques were given to Li Qingyun, the "Demon Exorcism Records" went to the Heavenly Master Girl, and the "Shennong Emperor’s Medical Scripture," "Pharmacist’s Notes," and the medicine cauldron were allocated to Lin Tian, each taking what they needed.

These treasures couldn’t be bought with money, and as for the remaining gold and medicinal materials, although they were also precious, their value could still be measured in monetary terms.

However, Lin Tian had been waiting for this batch of materials. Although some had been donated, the rest still held immense value. Ning Luoxi had indeed kept her promise, safely transporting the supplies back to Huaxia.

"The things you’ve been waiting for have arrived?" Miss asked curiously.

Lin Tian nodded and replied, "Do you want to go see them? They’re stored at Tianxuan Special Guard."

"Of course, you’ve talked so much about it, I too want to see for myself," Miss said with a smile.

"Alright, since it’s still not too late, let’s go now," Lin Tian said decisively.

Miss was also a woman of action, quickly packed up, and left the supercomputing center, Xiao Manxuan and Liu Wenxing naturally followed.

Passing through that corridor again, it still required Nuwa to shut down the protection system for Lin Tian to pass smoothly. He wanted to check out what mechanisms were there, but exploring usually resulted in wrecking the mechanisms, provoking Miss to blow her top.

Emerging from the Xiao Group Building, the night had completely fallen. The building looked less imposing at night but more elegant, as the decorative lights adorned the tall building beautifully.

Lin Tian drove, heading east and then southeast, passing the ring road, and soon arrived at the Tianxuan Special Guard Base. Among the four of them, only Liu Wenxing had not been here before, so when he saw the high walls and large courtyard of the base, he was once again amazed.

"Brother Tian, I’m becoming more and more impressed with you. You say you’re just a high school senior, yet you own the Night Rose Bar and Tianxuan Special Guard, and you also collaborate with the Xiao Family; those so-called societal elites would feel ashamed in your presence," Liu Wenxing expressed his sincere admiration.

"That’s not necessarily true. For societal elites like Miss, it’s me who should feel ashamed," Lin Tian laughed.

Miss glanced at him and said, "Are you saying that because you want me to praise you a few words?"

"Hehe, you’ve seen through my little scheme, Miss really understands me," Lin Tian laughed heartily, his thick-skinned nature never knowing what embarrassment was.

"Lin Tian, why is Tianxuan Special Guard so dark? There aren’t any lights, nor any guards; aren’t you afraid of thieves?" Xiao Manxuan asked curiously.

It was only when Xiao Manxuan mentioned it that Lin Tian noticed. He possessed night vision, so lights didn’t matter to him, but for others without night vision, it was strange for such a large training base to be in complete darkness.

Could it really have been robbed? Lin Tian was taken aback. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Ghost and the Ghost Team, but if they weren’t around and the lair was visited by petty thieves, it would be a huge joke. The formidable Ghost Team, having survived blood and gore, if their base were stolen from, it would be a disgrace in the mercenary world.

More importantly, the highly valuable batch of supplies was stored inside the base; if stolen, Lin Tian would find it regrettable.

Just as he was about to push open the gate, the lights on the surrounding walls suddenly lit up, illuminating the outside brightly, and the gate also opened automatically.

Inside the base, searchlights were installed at high places, illuminating the ground as brightly as a mercenary base.

Having been away for a few days, Lin Tian noticed the entire base had changed its appearance. The once shattered concrete drill ground had been relaid, and the broken flagpoles had been replaced with new ones. The scaffolds that had been used for building were removed, replaced by buildings of various heights.

In the open spaces, numerous training facilities had been installed, making the base look more like a training ground.

A man walked out from the dazzling light, and although it was backlit, Lin Tian still recognized him, it was Ghost.

"Brother Tian, you’ve come." Ghost called out from afar.

"Why is the base all dark and dreary?" Lin Tian asked curiously.

"Got used to it, back on the battlefield, who dared to light a fire? They’d only become targets for enemies. Eventually, it became a habit," Ghost replied.

"You made me think we were being robbed," Lin Tian laughed.

"We’re quite free right now, having a few petty thieves might spice things up," Ghost said somewhat regrettably.

Clearly, he hadn’t yet met any daring thief brave enough to venture into Tianxuan Special Guard. Apart from these audacious mercenaries, no one else would dream of it.

"By the way, where are Stone and the others?" Lin Tian wondered, those overly energetic guys wouldn’t be sleeping this early.

"I gave them a few days off to do as they please. Currently, it’s just me in the base. Brother Tian, do you have a mission? I can call them back right away," Ghost said, thinking there was a mission and spoke seriously.

Lin Tian waved his hand and said, "No need, I’m just here to check on that batch of supplies, just lead the way."

"I see, Brother Tian, follow me this way, the supplies are stored in the warehouse," Ghost, not one to dawdle, immediately turned to lead the way.

Ghost had never greeted the Xiao sisters from start to end; he once said that he never kills women during missions. Lin Tian even suspected that this guy might be afraid of women, otherwise why wouldn’t there be any girlfriends or women in the Ghost Team?

Lin Tian estimated that Ghost was not much older than himself, possibly even the same age, because beneath Ghost’s cold exterior, a hint of youthful spirit occasionally emerged.

"Brother Tian, your friend is so cool," Liu Wenxing whispered.

"Of course, Ghost’s reputation in the mercenary world is forged through blood and fire," Lin Tian praised.

Ghost led Lin Tian and a few others to a warehouse. The warehouse door had a code lock, and after Ghost entered the code, the door automatically opened.

The lights inside the warehouse automatically turned on. The lights around were white, but when they hit the thing in the middle of the warehouse, they immediately reflected a flood of gold light.

That pile of things was not anything else, but the gold from the Shrine, gold bars brazenly stacked on the ground, not fearing theft at all.

"Holy cow, Brother Tian, don’t tell me all that stuff is gold!" Liu Wenxing exclaimed loudly.

"Just as you see, they are indeed gold," Lin Tian said.

Even Lin Tian himself had been amazed the first time he saw this stack of gold, let alone Liu Wenxing. The Xiao sisters were slightly better, but their eyes also showed surprise. Although the Xiao Family was wealthy, they had never seen so much gold piled together. The visual impact was truly stunning.

However, as astonishing as it was, no one showed any signs of greed. This also was a test of character; no matter how noble you usually are, seeing this pile of gold, one’s true nature is hard to conceal. Whether you are truly noble or not, it shows in your eyes.
