I became a member of the ancient gods

Chapter 17 The Bad Woman

After nearly an hour of cooperation, the two temporarily took care of the surface of the off-road vehicle. Lin finally opened the door and jumped into the driver's seat, tried to start the car, and checked the condition of the car.

"When will we leave?" Fran asked standing outside the car.

"The car looks like it can be driven. We can leave now! Just drive the car to your 'Pansi Cave', pack up food, water and other important things and load them into the car!"

Lin Zhong is in a good mood now. The car seems to have plenty of fuel. If they can drive all the way, they can get out of the polluted area in one day.

"But didn't you say yesterday that those two people might come back? We don't need to stay here?" Fran asked.

Lin Zhong did speculate yesterday that Xu Zhongyi and Irene might return to Fulan's lair.

The corpse of the "apostle" Xu Zhongyi and the others brought back did not have a complete core or complete brain tissue. Once the research institute identified it, it would be discovered that they had not completely eliminated the real apostle, and there was no record of hunting the apostle. .

So what will they do next?
Maybe he will come back and try to search for the real apostle.

"Nothing is absolute. How are they going to act? If they don't go out and inquire, how can they be sure? If they come again, they will have to recruit people to buy equipment. It won't be so fast. We have time. What's more, when they come back, they will definitely hunt you. I'm fully prepared. I'm just waiting here to die." After Lin finished speaking, he patted the co-pilot and shouted to Fran, "Don't worry about so much, get in the car first!"

……

At the same time, in a temporary tent house in the slum outside the walls of the shelter area, Irene held a thin cigarette in her mouth and listened silently to Xu Zhongyi's explanation.

Xu Zhongyi looked frustrated, and at the same time carefully looked at Irene's face: "I'm sorry, Irene, I let you down. I really didn't expect..."

"Don't blame yourself. No one would have imagined this situation. We acted together. If you are to be blamed for this matter, then I am at least half wrong." Irene smiled and comforted him softly.

"Irene..." Xu Zhongyi looked moved.

Once again, he felt lucky to have met such a wonderful woman.

"It doesn't matter, let's organize it again." Erin said again.

"Organize it again?" Xu Zhongyi was stunned for a moment.

"Since the people at the institute said that what we brought back were just clones of the real apostles. The real apostles may still be in that area. Wouldn't it be great if we organized a wave of manpower to deal with the real apostles? ? That apostle has lost part of its core, and its power must be incomplete." Irene analyzed seriously.

"Yup!"

Xu Zhongyi was enlightened by such a simple truth, but because of the momentary shock, he couldn't wrap his head around it.

He thought about it carefully and couldn't help but frown: "But it is an apostle-level target after all. We don't have the manpower right now. Lin Zhong and the others..."

Already killed by us - he swallowed these words in time.

Only now did he realize that without Lin Zhong as the leader, he would feel so uncertain when hunting an apostle-level target.

Regret suddenly came up. It would be better if they could deal with the real apostle before taking action.

"Don't worry about manpower, I have a way to do this." Erin said, stubbing out the cigarette she was about to smoke. "You can lend me your car for two days, and I will go to the deserted city in the north to contact the servants who have worked with me before. Soldiers..."

Xu Zhongyi's eyes widened before the other party finished speaking: "Desolate city? No, that kind of place is too messy!"

Deserted cities generally refer to all settlements without the jurisdiction of governments, companies, or warlords. They are a paradise for refugees, infected people, wilderness travelers, bandits, and mercenaries, a mixture of dragons and snakes, and anarchists and desperadoes.

"I know a few reliable people in the north. Ayi, there's no way you can't trust the people I introduce, right?" Eileen said.

"What are you talking about? I'm worried about you!" Xu Zhongyi quickly explained.

"Did you forget that I was there too? Don't worry." Irene replied calmly.

"That doesn't necessarily have to be..." Xu Zhongyi was still a little resistant to this.

"But it's impossible to recruit more than two veterans from other teams in a short period of time." Erin persuaded calmly.

Xu Zhongyi was speechless for a moment. Lin Zhong was also worried about manpower at the beginning.It was so difficult to find a veteran who could partner with them, not to mention that they had to recruit at least two more people to ensure the success rate of hunting.

He thought about it again, and suddenly remembered Lin Zhong's idea before: "Maybe we can go to District [-] and find the Wasteland Company to hire people!"

As a result, Eileen laughed when she heard this: "Fool, those big companies eat people without spitting out their bones. If you want to hire people who can hunt apostles with them, they will definitely drain our savings. We don't want to do that at all." This unjust money needs to be spent. Ayi, in fact, I have been thinking about the future for a long time. "

"What?" Xu Zhongyi asked subconsciously.

"In the future, if you want to be promoted to the Dawn Level, you will also need to gain experience as a team leader. Of course, you can also recruit a few novices to wander around at the shallow level, but when we establish a base in the future, we will definitely need some capable backbone members to cooperate for a long time. I I have been using my connections to help you find someone for a long time, believe me!" Irene stared into Xu Zhongyi's eyes.

"You've actually thought this far?" Surprised, Xu Zhongyi couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.

"This is all for our future. I believe you can do it. You are no worse than Lin Zhong. You will lead the team this time and we will complete this hunt together!"

Irene stretched out her hand to touch Xu Zhongyi's cheek, and the words she spoke softly played on Xu Zhongyi's heart like a spell.

Xu Zhongyi looked at Irene and suddenly felt a little ashamed.

Eileen's thoughtful thoughts and strong actions always made him feel that he was not worthy of the other party.

Really... How could I be so worthy of being favored by such a good woman?

"I understand, then do as you say." He nodded towards Irene.

"Then meet at the same place tomorrow morning at eight o'clock. You can hand the car to me and then go back to the shelter to wait. We will meet again at the same time and place the day after tomorrow." Erin immediately made a plan.

"Okay, okay!" Xu Zhongyi nodded repeatedly.

"It's agreed, see you there or not!" Irene leaned over with a charming smile and kissed Xu Zhongyi's face like a dragonfly.

Just such a small gesture made Xu Zhongyi feel like he was falling into the clouds.

He also smiled and said goodbye to Irene, and explained some things to each other. Irene sent him out of the tent, and then watched him disappear at the end of the slum street.

Then, Erin let out a sigh of relief.

Even if this kind of mud-like man really takes up the position of Dawn Hunter, can he really be useful in future plans?

Thinking of this, she felt pity again.

If Lin Zhong could take the bait back then, this waste would be the one dying in the abyss now.
