Chapter 133: Chapter 129: So You’re Very Strong? Let Me Take a Look

Mengde beamed, his eyes sizing up Gao Qiu and his crew.

’What a bunch of good, kind-hearted leeks!’

"What I, Mengde, like most are selfless, dedicated people like you!"

"And what I admire most is your grand spirit, your willingness to lay down your lives!"

For some reason, hearing this sent a chill down Gao Qiu’s spine.

Mengde’s ’benevolent’ smile, in particular, made him feel like he was being targeted.

This left him extremely displeased.

’Damn it!’

’We’re supposed to be the hunters, so why do I feel like the prey?!’

Gao Qiu cursed inwardly, but kept his expression well-disguised.

"Ahem... Good, that’s good."

"In that case, hurry up and open the base gates. Gather everyone up."

"We need to get a headcount. How many people do you have here at Yulong Base?"

The walls of Yulong Base were five meters high.

Gao Qiu and his men hadn’t entered the base gates.

Mengde was currently speaking to them from the other side of the gate.

So naturally, Gao Qiu and his group couldn’t see what was inside the base.

There was also the matter of the gate itself. He had tried to breach it earlier.

A dignified Tier Four Powerhouse like himself had actually failed to break it down in a single attempt.

This shocked him and, at the same time, became an obstacle in his path.

This was precisely why Gao Qiu and his men hadn’t made any rash moves yet.

But once those gates opened, it would be time for the hunt.

At least, that’s how Gao Qiu saw it.

To say nothing of anything else, the two women beside Mengde alone were enough to take back and... enjoy for a good long while.

Mengde, of course, knew exactly what Gao Qiu was thinking.

’You’re lusting after my women and want to hunt me like prey? Hah! I’m the one who wants to harvest you like leeks!’

’But before that...’

"No rush, no rush."

"I still have a few questions."

"West City Rescue Base... How come I’ve never heard of this base before?"

Gao Qiu assumed Mengde was questioning their ’official’ status.

He immediately explained.

"Oh, it’s perfectly normal that you haven’t heard of it, Brother Mengde."

"Our West City Rescue Base was only recently established under official orders."

"It’s not far, either. It’s near your Yulong Island, closer to East Sea City."

"It’s normal for you not to know."

’Oh, so that’s it!’ Mengde understood now.

’So they’re the group from near East Sea City!’

He had heard reports from Leng Feng before about two relatively large survivor factions in the vicinity of Yulong Base.

’I can’t believe it. I just dealt with He Erqing’s group from near Mountain and Sea City yesterday...’

’...and today, the group from East Sea City delivers themselves right to my doorstep.’

’This saves me the trouble of finding an excuse to attack them!’

’If you hadn’t come knocking, how could I have wiped you out?!’

’I have to say, Yulong Base really is a treasure!’

’At least when it comes to attracting aggro, it’s top-notch!’

’Oh, and the two women beside me... they’re pretty good at attracting aggro too.’

As Mengde rejoiced, he mentally switched his auto-pilot to manual override...

’Hubby... Brother-in-law... you’re so wicked!’

"That’s good, that’s good. As long as it’s not far," Mengde said with a faint smile.

’Not far away, huh? All the better to kill you quickly!’

’How dare you set up camp near my lair?’

’You’re just asking to die!’

Seeing this, Gao Qiu thought Mengde was worried about the distance.

He immediately said,

"Brother Mengde, you don’t need to worry."

"Me and my brothers behind me are all very strong."

"We’ll be sure to escort you safely to our base!"

Mengde’s eyes lit up.

"Oh? So you’re all that strong?"

"Let me see!"

Seeing the expectant look in Mengde’s eyes, Gao Qiu’s pride swelled.

"Of course!"

"These brothers of mine are all Superpower Users!"

"And I myself am a powerful Tier Four Superpower User!"

"Protecting you will be more than enough. You don’t have to worry at all!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a ball of Flame shot out.

It instantly blasted a large tree by the side to smithereens!

His underlings behind him immediately started cheering in a well-coordinated fashion.

"Captain Gao! Captain Gao! Captain Gao!"

Hearing the cheers from behind, Gao Qiu grew even more proud.

’Hmph. I told you we were officials and you didn’t react.’

’But now that I’ve displayed such immense power...’

’...you country bumpkins, you low-tier trash, you should at least give me some kind of reaction, right?’

It wasn’t surprising Gao Qiu thought this way. On his way here, he hadn’t encountered anyone who could put up a fight.

A Tier Four Superpower User was considered one of the handful of powerhouses back at their West City Rescue Base.

Outside the base, that was even more true.

Lately, when they had been capturing survivors, it wasn’t as if they hadn’t met with resistance.

But he had finished all of them off with a single fireball!

Against Low-tier Superpower Users, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say he swept through them.

In his eyes, Mengde’s base was no different from the other groups he had encountered!

Their string of victories had gone to their heads.

What he didn’t know, however, was that the reason no Superpower Users of Tier Four or above had appeared in the vicinity...

...was because all of them had already died at Mengde’s hands!

That was why he couldn’t see even a hint of the shocked expression he was hoping for on the faces of Mengde and his people.

Leng Feng and the others even looked disdainful.

’A mere Tier Four dares to show off in front of experts?’

’Is he bullying Yulong Base, thinking we have no one capable?!’

’If it weren’t for the lack of an order from the boss!’

’Otherwise, powerhouses like them, all at Tier Four Peak, would have acted long ago.’

Brother Jingfu and Lei Qiang thought: ’We’re Tier Five and we haven’t even said anything!’

’You, a mere Tier Four, are acting this arrogant? What about our pride?!’
