Chapter 107: Chapter 102: Cheerful Old Biden

Could it be that his guess was wrong?

How much does the Steel Council really know about the apocalypse?

Thinking to himself, he kept talking, "A Tier One Firepower Hand can advance in three directions at Tier Two, but the main one is Tier Two ’Furious Veteran’, which is—"

Li Tao suddenly interrupted him, his eyes suspicious, "Wait a minute, the name Furious Veteran..."

Su Huan shrugged, "Though it’s a bit outrageous, that’s indeed the name. You can also call it Furious Veteran, oh, and there’s another translation you might prefer: ’Bullet Rain Rampage.’

Because the name indeed seemed a bit made-up, Su Huan had to give a couple more options for him to decide.

Hearing him explain the origin of the term without faltering, Li Tao’s expression softened quite a bit.

But he didn’t really like either of those names.

First he wrote down "Furious Rain of Bullets" in his notebook, then crossed it out, and wrote "Furious Veteran" instead.

Firepower Hand - Furious Veteran.

Flows slightly better.

Su Huan didn’t care which one he remembered; it didn’t matter what the profession was called, even if he renamed his Energy Storage Core to Universe-Defying Turtle Style Qi Gong, it wouldn’t affect its effectiveness.

After all, the skills were still those skills, etched into his DNA and not changing easily.

He continued, "Level 6 ’Battle Factor’ + Level 6 ’Heavy Firepower Specialization’ + Level 6 ’Ballistic Correction’ + Level 1 ’Dynamic Vision’ + Level 1 ’Dual-Wielding Firearms’

Li Tao jotted down notes swiftly.

Soon, Yu Jing and Wan Xing brought the snake bones over, exchanging them at the carriage door.

Li Tao also straightforwardly handed over the gene serum.

The process went very smoothly.

The two of them never once mentioned those nineteen dead soldiers.

For the Steel Council, they were already sunk costs.

Revenge was not the main goal; the goal was to maintain organizational dignity.

But when maintaining dignity required a greater sacrifice, the choice became simple.

On one hand, cut losses in time and recover a bit through trade.

On the other hand, single-minded revenge, risking the lives of the entire company for those nineteen elite soldiers, and going to war with another major power.

Perhaps the deceased would choose the latter, but the living might not be so willing.

Fortunately, the dead have no choice.

This is how interactions between major powers work; without necessary reasons, there won’t be life-and-death struggles. They might have been fighting fiercely over some resource yesterday and reaching a handshake agreement the next day after a deal is made.

Su Huan has seen such things many times.

But the prerequisite for negotiating with a tiger is that you must be a lion, you can’t be a stray dog, not even a Tibetan Mastiff!

If Su Huan hadn’t shown formidable strength or a mysterious background, he should have been met with the machine gun fire of armed helicopters and the pincer attack of ground armed forces.

He didn’t even need to think about it; five kilometers away, the Steel Council surely had reinforcements ready!

The entire organization’s three convoys were already poised to strike.

But this smoothly unfolding scene was exactly what Zhang Min didn’t want to see.

She had originally thought the Steel Council came menacingly to forcibly take over the convoy. After all, they possessed powerful Evolvers and armed forces, while there wasn’t even a single gun on the train.

Even if they didn’t come to forcibly take the train, they should have treated the Mojiang Mutual Aid Convoy with that lofty attitude, looking down on Su Huan, trampling on his dignity!

Make that damn smile of his freeze on his face.

Make him experience the humiliation of being oppressed by power.

But she didn’t expect the imposing man to start chatting with Su Huan after getting off the train.

At this point, she still held onto a sliver of hope, waiting for the negotiations to break down.

But in the end, it concluded peacefully.

What did that make her?

A clown?

In that instant, extreme disappointment and imbalance twisted Zhang Min’s mindset, and as if possessed, she opened the car door, went down, and ran to the side of the train.

Li Tao frowned, recognizing that since the armed train belonged to a major power, the woman’s value correspondingly increased.

Recalling the woman’s extraordinary composure in the Mojiang Convoy, Li Tao decided to offer her more leniency.

Zhang Min’s pace slowed down, and when she saw Su Huan’s gaze shift towards her, she felt an intense emotion choke her throat, her muscles trembling uncontrollably.

That face hadn’t changed much, it was exactly as she remembered.

Of course, in just a few days, how much could it change?

He had food and drink in the train, didn’t have to face Evolution Beast attacks, didn’t worry about zombie hordes, let alone high temperatures and acid rain; what could change in him!

Seeing that smiling face, Zhang Min did her best to stretch her trembling skin, forcing out a smile.

"I wonder if the conductor still remembers me?"

As she stepped out of the car, Su Huan recognized her, having just been wondering to himself.

This woman has improved quite a bit, in just a few days she’s mixed into the Steel Council.

The large-scale recruitment of survivors was only in January.

And that was done in batches.

But it didn’t matter unless she had an explosive evolutionary talent like Lin Jin, otherwise, in the eyes of the current train leader, she was just trash.

Yet she jumped right in front of him.

Is she trying to show off her wealth upon returning home?

Su Huan, naturally cooperative, showed a clear yet puzzled expression, "Ah, who is this lady?"

Yu Yue, behind him, pouted, knowing he’s going to tease someone again.

Sure enough, Zhang Min was so angry her chest puffed up, her reddened eyes glaring fiercely at Su Huan.

She had clearly endured so much, but the other party hadn’t cared at all.

Li Tao, being a shrewd person, detected that some friction might have occurred between them from just one interaction and said coldly, "Zhang Min, wait for me in the car if you still want those two conditions."

The tone was cold, completely different from the calmness when talking to Su Huan.

The woman took a deep breath, as if letting something go, bowed deeply, and said with a smile, "Thank you for the train leader’s teachings."

Having sensed the aura of her kind, she wondered what surprise the next meeting might bring.

Su Huan was a bit pleased, smiling back, "No need to thank me, the train leader loves educating people, just don’t come empty-handed next time, flapping around like that isn’t good."

"Definitely!"

The woman finished speaking and got back into the car without a backward glance.

Li Tao frowned at this, feeling he might have taken on trouble, but still politely said, "In that case, happy cooperation, I look forward to the next cooperation with Mr. Su and your esteemed company."

Su Huan waved from behind the explosion-proof net.

Watching them drive away, the helicopter hovering in the sky also flew off.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Only a piece of steel plate for stepping on was left on the ground.

The cold wind swept across, stirring the puddles on the ground, the originally clear water suddenly turned muddy, just like Su Huan’s expression.

He said coldly, "Throw away the box of genetic agents, rinse the test tubes with clear water, Liang Kuan, get ready to drive." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Everyone didn’t know what happened, but they were used to Su Huan’s orders, no one hesitated.

Five minutes later, the train started moving slowly, Yu Yue, who was tidying things up in the kitchen, looked up at Su Huan with a changed expression, just in time to see the sinister smile on his face, the corners of his mouth pulled high, revealing sharp teeth.

"Zombie inducer, a bunch of old bastards who can’t change their habitual ways."

But if you looked down from the sky, you’d clearly see various zombies within Yijin City gradually gathering, moving towards where the train was heading.

...

"Hey, that arrogant fool really thinks our Steel Council’s stuff is so easy to take."

Zhang Tie said harshly, sitting in the passenger seat.

He really disliked Su Huan’s scrutinizing gaze, the kind that looked at him with pity as if he were an idiot.

It made him feel humiliated!

Before the apocalypse, he could kill an entire squad of such ordinary people on his own!

Even in the whole training camp, he could rank in the top ten in overall combat power!

Why does he dare to look at him with such eyes?

Li Tao sat in the ragged off-road vehicle, expressionless, "They have a Sound Wave Manipulator, try not to speak."

"It’s already over five kilometers; she definitely can’t hear us, after all, she’s an Evolver without even reaching a tier." Zhang Tie said dismissively.

Li Tao frowned.

Ever since the apocalypse, this group of strong soldiers gained power and started slowly disrespecting them.

This made him feel uneasy.

’Uncle was right, it’s more reassuring to keep power in your own hands.’

"Bang—"

Suddenly, the wheels jolted violently.

"What happened?" Zhang Tie looked at the corporal in the driver’s seat.

The corporal grasped the plastic steering wheel tightly, making it creak, and pulled out a sidearm with one hand, smacking against the window.

Unload a magazine into the suddenly emerging fanged mouth.

Then he grinned with a relaxed smile, "Just a bloodhound, no problem."

Zhang Tie rolled down the window, just intending to take a breath of fresh air, and inadvertently glanced outside, his pupils suddenly narrowing.
