Chapter 196 Relying on the Blessing of Divine Beasts, Bravely Venturing into the Apocalypse 30
The fake brother number two didn't care about Qiu Tong's reaction. As soon as he saw Qiu Tong appear, his eyes lit up and he ran into the stairwell.
He needed to hurry back and inform Yu Fang that Mo Feihan had arrived.
As Qiu Tong watched the figure dart past her, just as she was about to recall anything about this person, the door not far away suddenly opened.
As soon as she stepped outside, Yun An saw Qiu Tong standing not far away. She rubbed her eyes first, and seeing that it was not a hallucination, she quickly called out cheerfully to her back, "Senior, Fei Han is here."
Yun An quickly made way for Qiu Tong to enter the room.
He had originally intended to go out, but he silently closed the door and went back inside.
Apart from Yun An and Li Mengran, no one else was inside.
"Where are the others?" Qiu Tong asked, sitting on the matching sofa in the living room.
As soon as Yun An announced that Qiu Tong had arrived, Li Mengran rushed out of the room and followed closely behind Qiu Tong, sitting down on the sofa next to her.
“We just arrived yesterday. They all went to wander around the base and should be back soon. When did you arrive at the base? And how did you find us?” Li Mengran asked curiously.
Having acquired the original owner's memories from her previous life, Qiu Tong knows a lot about this base.
"I just arrived. I went to the rental housing area to ask around and got information about exchanging goods," Qiu Tong explained succinctly.
I've learned something new – I didn't know you could find people this way!
Li Mengran and Yun An were very convinced by Qiu Tong's words, and neither of them had thought that she, a newcomer to the base, would know so much about the base's operations.
Even Li Mengran and Yun An, who arrived earlier than her, didn't know how to find the person; otherwise, they would have gone there to ask long ago.
"Feihan, what are your plans next?" Li Mengran really wanted to ask her when she would take over my team, but she felt that asking that question would be a bit abrupt, so she changed the subject and subtly asked her about her future plans.
Qiu Tong naturally understood what Li Mengran wanted to ask, and she didn't beat around the bush, "I just took a look at the mission hall and I think there are two or three missions that are very suitable for us to do."
"Let's rest for two more days, and then we'll start taking on missions." Qiu Tong, understanding that they had just arrived at the base and hadn't yet settled in, suggested that they rest for a couple more days.
She originally wanted to set off immediately, but then thought it best to let them rest for two more days. There were some things she needed to do before Yu Fang did.
“We can set off at any time. Our strength has improved a lot during this period. I really want to show you our strength now,” Yun An said excitedly.
"No, I have things to do. I'll set off in a couple of days."
"I'll come back to see you in a couple of days. I'm leaving now." Qiu Tong hadn't even warmed her seat before preparing to leave.
"So fast! Didn't you just arrive? Sit a little longer, Feixue and the others will be back soon. They'll be so happy to see you." Yun'an tried to persuade Qiu Tong to stay, not wanting her to leave so quickly.
The summoning divine beast system within Qiu Tong's body was so angry at Yun An's sticky gaze at Qiu Tong that it wanted to burst out of Qiu Tong's body and kill him.
But it knew it couldn't do that, and it couldn't do it anyway. All it could do was roar in its heart, "This is my wife, mine! Don't be a toad trying to eat swan meat. My wife would never look at you. Don't be delusional, give up on that idea."
Fortunately, it still retained its rationality and knew that if it really killed the other party, Heaven would definitely strike it dead with a bolt of lightning.
The Heavenly Dao of this plane suddenly felt a chill down the back of its neck, as if a crisis was about to befall it.
As more and more divine beasts are summoned, the Divine Beast Summoning System recalls many past lives, which makes it even more convinced that it and Qiu Tong are a destined pair.
Otherwise, the two wouldn't have been able to recognize, know, and love each other in several lifetimes. Every time he thought of this, the Summoning Divine Beast System felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey.
Anyway, as long as the summoning divine beast system sees a male species approaching Qiu Tong, or looking at her lecherously, it will work.
The summoning divine beast system gives me the urge to burst out of Qiu Tong's body and thoroughly annihilate those reckless lechers.
Right now, it just wanted to strangle Yun An, and said sourly in Qiu Tong's mind, "Master, let's not listen to him, let's go find someone first, otherwise Yu Fang will beat us to it."
Qiu Tong wanted to stay for two more days because the original owner of this body in her previous life was brutally murdered, and several accomplices were involved. She wanted to find these people.
They should be at the base now. Qiu Tong wants to find them first, sow discord between them and Yu Fang, and let them fight amongst themselves.
She wouldn't kill those people so easily. She wanted those who had harmed the original owner to experience the pain of being bitten by mutated animals or insectoids, but she couldn't let them die so easily.
She wants them to struggle to survive in the apocalypse; that's the best revenge she can give them.
Without needing a reminder from the summoning divine beast system, Qiu Tong also planned to leave to find the people who had participated in harming the original owner in her previous life.
Yun An reluctantly saw Qiu Tong off at the door, standing by the door watching Qiu Tong's receding figure disappear into the stairwell.
From behind, Yun An looked like a statue of a woman gazing at her husband, which made Li Mengran shake her head.
While checking Li Mengran's address, Qiu Tong also checked the addresses of those other people. Since checking one address costs as little as a pack of instant noodles, and checking multiple addresses also costs as little as a pack of instant noodles, she might as well check the addresses of her enemies as well.
She just never expected that Yu Fang would live next door to Li Mengran. What a coincidence!
Upon arriving at the location of their first enemy, they were surprised to find Yu Fang talking to him.
The two of them were acting mysteriously, hiding in a corner and whispering to each other.
Qiu Tong called out to Xiao Fu with her mind, and it instantly understood and immediately broadcast the scene from Yu Fang's side to Qiu Tong.
"You have to trust me. There's a small granary near your house. I know its exact location. We can work together to collect the grain."
"I'll lead the team, and you'll guide the way. We can split the grain we find 30/70," Yu Fang promised confidently.
"I'll have seven and you three?" The other person fantasized happily, but accidentally blurted it out.
"You're dreaming. I'll provide the manpower, and you'll just be the guide. Do you think it's possible to allocate resources like that?"
Originally, it was supposed to be 80% for me and 20% for you, but I valued you, so I gave you 70% and 30% instead. Although Yu Fang tried her best to win this person over, she wouldn't easily compromise on the proper distribution of benefits.
"Putting aside the allocation issue, does the small granary you mentioned really exist? Don't make me come all this way for nothing. I used to live there, and I never knew about this small granary you're talking about," the man questioned, and as he spoke, he began to suspect that Yu Fang was playing a trick on him.
Yu Fang said decisively, "The information is absolutely reliable. If you don't cooperate with me, I can find someone else. Just say whether you're willing or not."
After hesitating for a while, the man finally agreed, but still wanted to argue about the distribution of the profits, saying, "Can't it be split 50/50?"
Yu Fang rolled her eyes, thinking that this person was still as greedy and shameless as in her previous life.
But he refused to budge, saying, "Impossible. If you don't want me to, I'll find someone else."
Seeing that Yu Fang was really turning to leave, the man hurriedly gritted his teeth and agreed, "Seventy-three it is, when do we leave?"
“I’ll find a few more partners, and when we’re ready, I’ll send someone to let you know. We’ll meet at the base entrance,” Yu Fang said.
The man muttered in dissatisfaction, "Why bother finding people? Will I end up with less and less supplies?"
"Don't worry, I'll keep my promise. Just wait for my contact." Yu Fang said impatiently again.
At the same time, looking at the images in her mind, Qiu Tong's expression gradually became serious. She finally understood why she always felt a sense of incongruity with Yu Fang.
Yu Fang's words and actions were not quite normal; it was as if she knew something in advance.
Take the small granary incident I just mentioned, for example. The original owner had participated in it in his memories; their escape route happened to pass through that place.
However, a group of incredibly powerful mutated animals were stationed there. That time, they gained nothing but lost many people.
The original owner almost lost her life there, but a passing squad rescued her and kindly took her back to the base, thus saving her life.
Unfortunately, although the original owner was rescued, he was seriously injured and his wounds had not yet healed, so Yu Fang sent him out on a mission again.
That was the time when the original owner was murdered by Yu Fang and some others during a mission.
The original owner only realized later, when she was a ghost, that all of this was planned in advance, in order to eliminate her, a burden without any superpowers.
The reason why Mo Feihan, who had no superpowers, was able to enter the base so easily was because Yu Fang's team was valued by the base's higher-ups, which made an exception and allowed Mo Feihan, who had no superpowers, to enter the base with the team.
Back then, although the base didn't prevent ordinary people without superpowers from entering like it does now, people like the original owner, who clearly had weak combat skills and no superpowers, would still not be accepted into the base.
Yu Fang and her group wanted to advance further in the base, so they had to eliminate her, who had no special abilities. They believed that the original owner of this body was hindering their progress.
Sure enough, after the original owner died, Yu Fang's team did better and better. It was only when she was drunk that she revealed the truth about this matter, which was overheard by the original owner of the ghost.
