Chapter 44: This Fellow… is So Thick-skinned!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The atmosphere was quite harmonious.

The chat group that Huang Zirui had set up in advance had played a certain role.

Of course, it was also thanks to the talkative Song Shuyi.

Not long after, a group of people consisting of four men and one woman walked over from afar.

The leader was a young man with spiky hair. He was wearing a gaudy combat suit. With a sloppy smile on his face, he raised his hand to greet Wang Ye and the others from afar.

“Good morning, rookies! Welcome to the rescue team.”

“Hello, sir!” Wang Ye and the others bowed.

“Don’t be so reserved. Relax. I’m Xia Wuguang, the captain of the rescue team,” Xia Wuguang smiled, “The rescue team operates such that the old members will guide the new members. These are the members of the N0.7 elite rescue team that I lead, Tong Wu, Han Ruobin, Hong Jia, and Su Yihan. Tong Wu will be in charge of you temporarily. If you have any problems, you can look for him. The rescue team has a lot of work to do, so you don’t have much time to adapt. We will leave West Camp in three days to carry out your first joint operation. Don’t embarrass the West Camp then!”

They would start working after three days.

Wang Ye liked it. The efficiency of the rescue team was really high!

“Sir, is the joint operation with the rescue teams of the East Camp, South Camp, and North Camp’s batch 101?” Song Shuyi asked curiously.

“Yes, healthy competition can improve work efficiency. Remember, the mission is more important than the competition. Don’t be too persistent in competing,” Xia Wuguang said, “As long as you don’t come in last.”

“We won’t let you down, sir!” Song Shuyi was full of fighting spirit.

“You’re the weakest of us…” Wang Ye retorted in his heart.

“Let me briefly explain the duties and treatment of the rescue team. The rescue team is busy and dangerous, so our treatment is the best among the three special departments. All missions, regardless of success or failure, will give achievement points. The achievement points can be used to exchange for equipment and potions at the research institute and laboratory in the gene park. After becoming an ace rescuer, you can enter the national treasury in advance.”

Achievment points?

Hmm… Cash coupons, huh?

Wang Ye went straight to the point, “Can the points be used to buy property?”

Xia Wuguang could not help but laugh, “They can only be used to exchange for Evolver’s items. However, if you accumulate enough achievement points and become an ace rescuer, the country will give you a double-story building.”

Wang Ye’s eyes lit up, “How tall? How big? Is it furnished? Is there a parking space? Which base city? How is the location? Can you settle down?”

Xia Wuguang was stunned.

Good heavens, did he become an intermediary?

Su Yihan, an ability user, smiled and said, “It’s more than five meters high and 200 square meters. It has an independent cultivation room, is well-furnished, and has an independent parking space. You can choose any of the ten base cities, and the house is usually located in the city center. You can settle down there and have complete documents.”

Awesome! It was equivalent to giving away 50 million yuan for free.

Wang Ye was very satisfied.

Su Yihan said to Wang Ye, “Rescuers don’t lack money because we earn 100% from killing monsters. By the time you become an ace rescuer, your net worth will probably be not much different from our boss.”

“I don’t have money!” Xia Wuguang shook his head repeatedly.

“That’s because you donated all the money you earned, except for equipment and daily expenses,” Su Yihan said with respect.

Wang Ye and the others were immediately filled with respect.

This young and sloppy spiky-haired officer had a big heart.

“Well, that’s because I’m alone,” Xia Wuguang waved his hand, “Alright, alright.

Let’s not talk about this. Let’s talk about the responsibilities of the rescue team.”

“As the name suggests, we rescue!” Xia Wuguang said seriously, “The rescue team is the first special department to be established. With the disaster, all parts of Huaxia have been ravaged by monsters. Refugees find it difficult to survive and are waiting for us to rescue them. They are all lives. We have a heavy responsibility.”

“Other than the monsters that are everywhere, everyone must remember to be careful of the demonic humans. As the order in Huaxia gradually stabilized, the growth of the demonic humans slowed down. They have begun to consciously capture refugees to strengthen themselves. Such incidents occurred frequently outside the base city, and countless colleagues have died in the hands of the demonic humans.”

Xia Wuguang paused for a moment and looked at Wang Ye.

Not good!

Wang Ye’s heart skipped a beat. Did he want to…

“I have to praise Wang Ye here,” Xia Wuguang looked at Wang Ye and said, “Not long ago, two demonic humans appeared in the north of Encampment No. 3. They killed a number of people, including Evovlvers. Fortunately, Wang Ye discovered those demonic humans in time and killed them without fear of danger. As a result, more innocent people were prevented from being killed. Everyone, remember, the demonic humans are the mortal enemies of the rescue team. As long as we meet them, we will kill them without mercy!”

It was over. His face was gone.

Wang Ye recalled the conversation he had with Huang Zirui and Yu Shuiqin and suddenly felt a little dizzy.

“Wow, Brother Ye, you’re so great!” Song Shuyi’s eyes widened, and she almost blurted out a profanity.

Yu Shuiqin, who was at the side, looked at Wang Ye with her beautiful eyes. There was a smile on her face that could not be hidden, mixed with special emotion and a young girl’s feelings.

Only Huang Zirui was dumbfounded and didn’t know how to react.

“This is what I should do,” Wang Ye said seriously.

Since it was already like this, he might as well.

Wang Ye grinned at Huang Zirui as if nothing had happened.

This fellow… How thick-skinned!

Huang Zirui was speechless.

After the explanation, Xia Wuguang led the N0.7 elite team and left.

Only the tall and sturdy Tong Wu was left behind. He wore horned armor and stood tall like a pillar, looking at everyone expressionlessly.

The atmosphere suddenly turned solemn.

“I am your substitute captain, Tong Wu. You can call me Captain Tong. In the next few days, 1 will lead you to become a real rescuer,” Tong Wu was expressionless, giving off a strong sense of oppression.

“The four of you will become the closest comrades in missions. During daily training, you will compete and support each other. The first one among you to become an intermediate Evolver will automatically become the leader of the West 101 Rescue Team. When enough achievement points are accumulated and everyone becomes an intermediate Evolver, the team will be upgraded to an elite rescue team. Do you understand?”

“Yes, Captain!”

There were no complicated rituals.

After Wang Ye and the others joined the rescue team, they quickly adapted to the environment and received training in many fields, including field knowledge, monster habits, geographical distribution, and many other contents.

In the morning, Wang Ye’s head was flooded with words and data.

In the afternoon, the four of them practiced together.

Tong Wu assigned different roles to them according to their strengths and specialties.

“When facing nightmare-level monsters, form a four-man formation. Huang Zirui,” Tong Wu instructed meticulously, “Your close combat ability is the most comprehensive among the four. You’re good at both offense and defense. You have to take on the responsibility of being the backbone.”

“Wang Ye, your attack power isn’t inferior to Huang Zirui’s. You will be the main offensive force. Yu Shuiqin, you’re a release-type ability user and the best choice for the core of the team. Song Shuyi, do your best to provide support and protection. For the next combat drill, treat me as a nightmare-level monster and attack me as much as you can!”

“Yes, Captain Tong!”

They spent the entire afternoon practicing.

From this, the four of them gained some tacit understanding, mainly by familiarizing each other with their fighting styles.

If the four of them were to really become a team and display extraordinary cooperation, they would need to at least go through tens of thousands of battles.

At night, the four of them went to the infirmary to learn some field first aid techniques, including self-healing, first aid for refugees, and so on.

“By the way, who among you can drive?” Tong Wu looked at the four of them.

The type who knew the gears?

Wang Ye thought wildly.

“Me, me, me!” Song Shuyi couldn’t contain her joy. For the whole day, she had been suppressed by Wang Ye and the other two’s superb learning abilities. Finally, she had a chance to show off, so she said loudly, “I just got my driver’s license before I entered the training camp!”

Wang Ye’s heart skipped a beat.

He glanced at Huang Zirui and realized that the latter’s expression was not good either.

“I can learn, Captain Tong,” Huang Zirui said tactfully.

“There’s no time,” Tong Wu glanced at him, “When the joint operation is over, there will be ten days of vacation. Go and get your driver’s license then. I’ll drive for this operation.”

“Yes,” Huang Zirui agreed immediately.

Wang Ye heaved a sigh of relief.

If Captain Tong didn’t offer to be the driver, his only choice would have been to volunteer.

Tired as it was, it was better than being on tenterhooks.

East Camp, Evolution Camp headquarters,

“This batch’s talents are all quite good,” The Chief smiled.

“Yeah, besides Wei Shengtian from the East Camp, Wang Ye, the champion of the West Camp’s rookie trial, also joined the rescue team. The overall strength of the South Camp is not bad either,” The East Camp’s commander said with a smile, “Only the North Camp is slightly weaker.”

“What is the mission of this joint operation?” The Chief flipped through the information.

“A B2 level search and rescue mission in Wuyi County’s Dongting City,” The East Camp’s commander said.

The Chief nodded.

He naturally didn’t need to ask too much about such a small matter.

“Oh right, has there been anything unusual with cosmic monster No. 9 recently?” The Chief asked.

The 10 cosmic monsters were arranged in order from 1 to 10 and displayed on the radar.

Cosmic monster No. 9 was the closest to Huaxia, the Giant Turtle the size of an island.

It’s still wreaking havoc in Island Country, enjoying the joy of destruction. Currently, it doesn’t have any intention of attacking Huaxia, 750 kilometers away from our base city.”

“Stay cautious and keep watch,” The Chief said seriously.

“Understood,” The East Camp’s commander nodded and smiled, “It’s very lazy. It likes to relax and hates to move. The number of steps it has moved over the years is only more than No. 8.”

“We can’t be careless,” The Chief let out a long sigh, “The destructive power of the cosmic monsters is too terrifying. Once they attack, it will be the end of the base city. It’s been five years, and not a single base city has survived..”
