Chapter 8 The entrance to the ruins! Lu Cheng was surprised, do you know me?

Li Yuanqing pondered for a moment and waved his hand.

"I'll talk to you personally."

Along the way, there was no expression on his face.

Arriving at the conference room, Li Yuanqing opened the door and entered with a kind smile on his face.

"Li's Technology Regional Vice President and current commander, Li Yuanqing."

Arriving in front of Lu Cheng, Li Yuanqing took the initiative to extend his hand.

Without losing grace, the aura is full.

"Hello."

Lu Chenghun didn't care, stretched out his hand to shake his hand, and got straight to the point: "Do you have the stone in your hand?"

"..." Li Yuanqing paused for a moment and waved. The person behind him took a stone and handed it to him.

"Is this the [Lingtai Relics] that your Excellency wants?"

Li Yuanqing said, placing the stone carefully on the table.

The stone was about the size of a fist, extremely round and smooth, as if it were a pebble that had been carved thousands of times, with a flash of seven-colored light flashing from time to time.

After taking a glance, Lu Cheng felt happy.

This is it!

Li Yuanqing spoke again: "Do you know what a heavy price we paid for this [Lingtai Relics]?"

As he spoke, his eyes dimmed: "On our way to the settlement, we encountered a large group of zombies.

“This [Lingtai Relics] was found among the zombies.

"There is even a BOSS among the zombies.

"For this reason, at least three hundred people from our Li Technology died in exchange for this stone."

Li Yuanqing was heartbroken.

Lu Cheng's eyes lit up.

The other party's intention was obvious, he wanted to raise the price, but he unconsciously provided him with information!
  Although zombies can be seen everywhere in the city, they are only level 1 mobs.

But they would gather in large groups, plus there was a BOSS, and treasures were discovered...

With these three qualifications, it is enough for Lu Cheng to make a judgment!

"Li's technology has probably discovered an entrance to the ruins!"

Lu Cheng thought to himself.

Monsters like zombies have no intelligence, no sense of community, and tend to wander scatteredly.

There are only two possibilities for forming a large group, including a BOSS.

There are ruins or secret realms nearby!
  The secret realm is a different space, and you need to clear the level before you can gain anything, and it often takes a long time.

It is impossible for Li Technology to obtain the Linglong Heart fragment so early in the secret realm.

In comparison, the possibilities for ruins are much greater!
  From this point of view, Li's technology is likely to be the fragment of the exquisite heart found at the entrance to the ruins.

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng nodded secretly.

The scope has been compressed enough, it is not difficult for him to find this secret place!
  "However, with my current combat power, it is not enough to explore the ruins..."

Lu Cheng thought in his mind.

It had just been a few hours since the disaster occurred, and he was only at level 4. It was still too early to be able to explore the ruins alone.

The lowest level ruins have monsters that are level 15 and up.

Pointing at the equipment on the table, Lu Cheng said, "Not enough?"

"Your Excellency, please forgive me. Level 3 equipment is very powerful, but we have paid too much for this spiritual platform..."

Li Yuanqing lamented.

Lu Cheng directly raised his hand, took out the last three white clothes, and said calmly: "This is all."

Seeing Lu Cheng take action with three more pieces of equipment, Li Yuanqing's eyelids jumped wildly.

Looking back and forth, this is already seven pieces of level 3 equipment!

The explosion rate of ordinary monsters cannot be so high. This must have killed a level 3 BOSS!

"Seven pieces of level 7 equipment are worth enough to exchange!"

Li Yuanqing affirmed.

Then, he changed the topic: "It's just that I wonder if you have any intention to work for me, Li's Technology?"

"With your strength, you will definitely have great potential in today's great changes. Coupled with the help of Li's technology, you may be able to soar into the sky!"

"We, Li Technology, will not treat talented people badly. As long as you join, you will be treated the same as the backbone of ten years. If you make further achievements in the future, you will be my right-hand man, Li Yuanqing!"

His tone was somewhat high-pitched, and his slightly magnetic voice was very instigative.

After finishing his words, Li Yuanqing looked at Lu Cheng.

"What are your intentions? Do you want to participate in this grand event with Mr. Li?"

Lu Cheng was very calm and declined politely: "No."

He felt no pressure to reject Li Yuanqing.

The reputation of Li's Technology in its past life has been full of ups and downs.

In the early days after the disaster, Li's Technology acted in a similar style to other super groups.

Starting from the 5th year of the Cataclysm Era, it suddenly began to vigorously rescue civilians and assist the Daxia officials, and the reputation suddenly became worse. But in the eighth year of the Cataclysm Era, Li's scientific and technological persona suddenly collapsed. He engaged in various kinds of exploitation and plunder, had an ugly face, and even caused civil strife, and his reputation fell to the bottom.

The reason was unknown to Lu Cheng. In his previous life, he rose to power in the 14th year of the Cataclysm Era, and he didn't know much about the previous secrets.

By the time he was gaining momentum, Li's technology was already in dire straits, and there were even some destabilizing operations that harmed many people.

Therefore, his impression of Li's technology is really average.

"Your Majesty, don't you think about it anymore? If that's the case..."

Li Yuanqing's face darkened. He had been in Li's Technology for many years and had rarely been rejected so directly.

At this time, a girl's figure walked into the room.

"Uncle Thirteen, what you did is against the rules."

She spoke calmly, her voice small but firm.

Lu Cheng turned around and looked.

This girl is about 1.65 meters tall. She is about seventeen or eighteen years old. She wears a plain white dress. Her skin is as white as snow, her eyes are clear and lively, her nose is straight, her lips are full and round, and her long hair is tied into a ponytail behind her head. The human temperament is extremely clear.

Lu Cheng frowned slightly. He looked familiar to this person, but he couldn't remember it for the moment.

"When a disaster strikes, I recruit talents for the group. What's wrong with the rules? Are you only allowed to recruit troops for your own family?"

Seeing the girl coming, Li Yuanqing's face turned cold.

"no."

The girl shook her head, and then spoke seriously: "The Li family's ancestral teachings are to use power to suppress others, to intimidate and induce, this is not the right way, and it is not allowed."

Li Yuanqing sneered: "You don't seem to be the head of my family, right? Why do you care about my family division?"

The girl remained calm: "Are you following the teachings of your ancestors, or are you succumbing to power?"

"call--"

Li Yuanqing let out a long breath and waved his hand: "That's all, since my young lady insists on obstructing it, I won't recruit you, okay?"

After saying that, he picked up the stone and left.

"Wait, Uncle Thirteen."

The girl spoke again.

"how?"

Li Yuanqing was a little impatient.

"He came here for the remains of the Lingtai. You promised before, so you can't break your promise. Give him the things in exchange."

The girl's eyes were clear and she pointed at the equipment scattered on the table.

"what?"

Li Yuanqing couldn't believe it: "What did I promise?"

"You said before that he took out 7 pieces of level 3 equipment, which were worth enough in exchange."

The girl pointed at the remains of the spiritual platform in Li Yuanqing's hand: "Then, even if you don't recruit, there is no reason to regret it."

"Why? Hundreds of people died in our northeastern branch. Who will bear the loss?"

"I'll come out." The girl said calmly.

Seeing Li Yuanqing arguing with the girl.

Lu Cheng on the side looked confused.

He wasn't too worried about what Li Yuanqing had done.

Now is the early stage of the catastrophe, the order has collapsed, and he has a hundred ways to get the remains of the spiritual platform.

It's just that someone from Li's Technology suddenly came out and spoke to him for no reason, which surprised him a little.

But it makes sense when you think about it. There can be several factions in a village. In a group as big as Li's Technology, it is normal for the factions to be at odds.

It's just this guy...

Looking at the girl's face, Lu Cheng was puzzled.

This girl looked familiar to him, he must have seen her somewhere before, but it was very hazy and he just couldn't remember.

Soon, the quarrel between the two came to an end.

Although the girl always kept her voice low, her attitude was very firm.

Li Yuanqing's eyes were filled with anger, but he seemed a little wary of the other party's identity.

"Okay! Since you are willing to bear the loss, then give it to him."

Anger flowed in Li Yuanqing's eyes, and regardless of his demeanor, he threw the remains of the spiritual platform on the ground, got up and left.

"Don't be too proud. There was someone who protected you before the disaster. Now in this chaotic world, how long do you think your identity will be useful? Your brother Li Mufeng's position as chief has long been unstable!"

When he arrived at the door, Li Yuanqing said coldly.

Hearing this, the girl didn't react much. She picked up the remains of the mourning platform, wiped the ashes, hesitated, and handed it over: "It's yours."

Facing Lu Cheng, her previous calmness suddenly disappeared.

However, Lu Cheng's heart was stirred up by a storm!

After Li Yuanqing mentioned it, he finally got the call.

The girl in front of her slowly overlapped with a blurry face in her memory, and slowly became clearer.

Xiao Muxue!
  A name that he had memorized for a long time in his previous life exploded in Lu Cheng's heart.
