Chapter 445: Meeting

Gray clouds were covering the sky, and the light around gradually became a little bleak. The wind whistled again, blowing Jiang Liushi's windbreak.

Standing outside the gates of Area A for a full hour, Jiang Liushi, Zhang Hai, and Sun Kun were all covered in snow. While they were waiting, Zhang Hai walked back and forth and stomped his feet. His expression was very impatient. On the other hand, Jiang Liushi's eyes kept turning with the falling snow. Even the fine crystal surface above the snowflake could be seen clearly by Jiang Liushi. In the past, Jiang Liushi could support such a high-intensity use of his brain's nerves for at most a quarter of an hour. However, he could insist for half an hour now, and he was not tired at all. Jiang Liushi would always exercise when he was free. Therefore, this wait was not unbearable to him.

"Brother, what's the news on the other side? When can we enter?" Zhang Hai finally could not resist and asked the guard at the guard post.

"Can you help us to ask again?" Zhang Hai added.

The guard glanced at Zhang Hai, and then he gave a call again. "The line's busy-" After a while, the guard put down the phone and said to Zhang Hai.

Zhang Hai was speechless. He didn't have any other method except waiting patiently.

…

In No. 57 Courtyard of Area A, it was snowing heavily, so they had to move their chess game into the quiet and covered part of the garden. The game had been carried out for three sets already, but while they were playing the final game, a guard approached hurriedly and whispered something to the middle-aged man standing at the gate.

The middle-aged man was Zhang Gaohe, the captain of the A District Guard, and a hand-pulled elite cadre of Peng Dinglong. Although he was affiliated with the Xiayuan Security Zone, Zhang Gaohe was loyal to Peng Dinglong. As long as Peng Dinglong visited, he immediately came to see his old boss. Hearing the guard's words, Zhang Gaohe's face changed suddenly, and then he broke into the main hall.

"Commander Peng and Professor Su, not long ago, a major event happened in the Rock Club— mutant beasts were found, and they hurt several people," Zhang Gaohe said urgently.

Peng Dinglong momentarily paused, and the chess piece between his fingers fell off as he looked at Zhang Gaohe.

"Is this verified?"

"Yes, I'm sure. Li Yinqiang and Leopard happened to be there, and they witnessed the whole process. The Security Bureau and Research Institutes have all launched investigations. They found that under the Backwater Arena of the Rock Club were a lot of insects' tissue fluids…"

The previously relaxed atmosphere turned tense in a matter of seconds. "If that's the case, I am afraid that the Xiayuan Security Island is also not safe. Shenhai Island is a good example," Professor Su said.

Peng Dinglong recovered from his thoughts and started laughing. "Professor Su, you don't need to worry. Our Xiayuan Security Island is built on the mountain. Even if those mutant beats in that Beast Nest try to attack us, they will have a hard time penetrating the thick soil and rock layers. Moreover, the guards here are enough. They are all powerful paranormals. Professor Su, my military base's power alone, with more than 10,000 soldiers and 100 tanks, can guarantee the safety of the people in the Xiayuan Security Zone."

"Don't treat this matter lightly," Professor Su said.

"We indeed take this matter seriously. In fact, we will soon launch an attack on that beast nest. However, I believe that the counterattack will take place sooner than expected because of what happened at Rock Club. Prof. Su, you could help us to study more evolution crystals in order to make our soldiers more powerful," he said here and noticed that Li Yuxin had come from the outside.

"Hello, Uncle Peng," Li Yuxin greeted Peng Dinglong politely. And then she sat down beside her grandpa.

"Yuxin, your Uncle Peng just received verified information from the military that traces of the Beast Nest have been found in Rock Club, so don't run around during this period of time." Professor Su looked at his dear granddaughter.

Peng Dinglong also stared at Li Yuxin, who was not only a beautiful girl but also an excellent paranormal. In his eyes, Li Yuxin had obtained a powerful medical special ability, which would surely make her shine in the future.

Truth be told, with her included, there were three paranormals with special medical ability in this area, and two of them were prominent figures of the Medical System.

"What? That Beast Nest had spread to this area?" Li Yuxin asked in surprise.

She felt worried because her team would also participate in the mission of attacking the Beast Nest, and now it seemed that it would not be as easy as they thought.

"Oh, Uncle Peng. I had made an appointment with my Captain, Jiang Liushi. He said he would come to visit my parents and my grandpa today. But why hasn't he come? I'm going to take a look outside," Li Yuxin said.

Recently, Peng Dinglong had come close with the Su family, so Zhang Gaohe helped to deal with almost all of the Su family's matters. When he heard Li Yuxin's question, Zhang Gaohe was a little bit embarrassed.

He had not reported that Jiang Liushi had come just because he was afraid of bothering Commander Peng and Professor Su. And then things related to Beast Nest delayed it again. But he didn't expect Li Yuxin would ask directly. Originally, he believed that Li Yuxin would stay in Area A just like her mother and grandpa to be a scientist. But now it seemed that she could not cut her ties with Shi Ying Squad that fast.

"Miss Yuxin, Captain Jiang has arrived. They are in the gate of Area A," Zhang Gaohe said immediately. "I will invite them in."

"Really?" Li Yuxin became happy. Although she had just left the minibus for one day, she missed everyone and the minibus.

Zhang Gaohe made a phone call, and then Jiang Liushi and others were sent by a car quickly to No.57 in Area A.

Jiang Liushi saw the beautiful Li Yuxin waiting in the snow outside the gate. Li Yuxin was dressed in a snow-white dress. She was initially quiet and calm. Perhaps because of the peace of mind brought by reuniting with her loved ones, Li Yuxin's face was rosier than before, and her eyes were as quiet as water.

"Yuxin." Jiang Liushi smiled. And then he looked at Zhang Gaohe, who was standing behind Li Yuxin.

Zhang Gaohe also stared at Jiang Liushi. However, he felt it was quite strange as he couldn't sense any energy fluctuations from Jiang Liushi.

"Brother Jiang." Li Yuxin also smiled happily. A few seconds ago she was a bit worried about the Beast Nest, but after seeing Jiang Liushi, she felt secure.

'What? Brother Jiang?' Zhang Gaohe thought. It was apparent that Li Yuxin appreciated Jiang Liushi very much.

"Oh, I almost died of freezing. We stood outside for almost two hours. Is there anything to eat?" Zhang Hai grumbled and shook the snow on his clothes.

Jiang Liushi's teammates shared a good relationship with each other. Zhang Hai and Sun Kun were not an exception, and ever since they became familiar with Li Yuxin, they could talk without reservation.

"Wait for more than two hours?" Li Yuxin felt it was strange.

"Captain Zhang, what is going on?" Li Yuxin was a little angry.

"Oh, it was just a little misunderstanding. When I received the news that Captain Jiang was waiting in Area A, Commander Peng and Professor Su were playing chess…and then we got news about that Beast Nest, so…" Zhang Gaohe said apologetically.

Although what Zhang Gaohe said seemed to be reasonable, it was also true that Shi Ying Squad had been mistreated. As a result, Li Yuxin felt unhappy.

"Oh? We had to wait because they were playing chess? Our team is not even comparable to a game of chess?" Zhang Hai could not help but mock.

Zhang Gaohe looked at Zhang Hai and shook his head. In his eyes, Shi Ying Squad's members were unrestrained individuals.

"No harm was done since we are already in," Jiang Liushi said faintly. There was no point in arguing about such a trivial matter, and it was one of his beliefs not to waste time on meaningless things.

Li Yuxin led them into the main hall. When they entered, Jiang Liushi saw Professor Su, and some memories of their life in Shenhai Island resurfaced. He was affiliated with Professor Su and had also saved the old man's life. Professor Su was also pleased to see Jiang Liushi, who was also his savior.

"Come here, Little Jiang. Let me introduce to you. This is Commander Peng Dinglong of Xiawu Military Base," Su Qiguang warmly held Jiang Liushi's hand and introduced him to Peng Dinglong.

Peng Dinglong was very enthusiastic, and he also called Jiang Liushi, Little Jiang. When he heard that Jiang Liushi had led his team to travel for thousands of miles, Peng Dinglong slapped Jiang Liushi's shoulder passionately.

"Since ancient times, youths are destined to be heroes. You're excellent."

"It was nothing." Jiang Liushi just smiled.

Peng Dinglong nodded and then he said, "But it's alright now, you are here. My words carry some eight around here. Professor Su, I am fond of these young people, so I want to invite them to join my private escort team. I promise you that they will definitely have a bright future."

When Zhang Gaohe listened to that, his eyelids jumped. Commander Peng Dinglong was really trying his best to win over Professor Su.

The private escort team of Peng Dinglong was the strongest force in the whole area, and it was known as the Eagle Guard.

"Oh, thank you. But we don't plan to join the military for the time being," Jiang Liushi answered. Peng Dinglong was really enthusiastic, and he had a good relationship with Professor Su, so Jiang Liushi didn't reject his offer directly.

Peng Dinglong was somewhat surprised by Jiang Liushi's answer. After all, it was a precious chance for many people. Some people would even beg for it in sleep.

"Commander Peng, Brother Jiang- Oh, no. Our team is accustomed to being free, and the military has too many rules and restraints. Not long ago, Captain Li Yinqiang also wanted our captain to join his team. However, Brother Jiang rejected his proposal directly," Zhang Hai said.

Zhang Hai was a very easy-going person, but he was prideful too. As a member of Shi Ying Squad, he could not bear or allow anyone to look down on their team.

'Li Yinqiang?' Zhang Gaohe was unconvinced and firmly believed that Shi Ying Squad was capricious.

"Oh, you also rejected Captain Li Yinqiang?" Peng Dinglong laughed.

"Continuously rejecting two strong military forces, Little Jiang you are great!" Although Peng Dinglong was still smiling, he was not as enthusiastic. "But if you don't want to join the military, what other plans do you have?"

"We intend to participate in the coming counterattack and complete the level-5 Wilderness Order. If we accomplish that, our team will be assessed to Level A, which is our temporary goal," Jiang Liushi said.

"Counterattack?" Hearing Jiang Liushi's answer, Peng Dinglong frowned. "Little Jiang, I advise you to reconsider and choose another mission. The counterattack will be quite dangerous!"
