Starting Cultivation in Wasteland-Chapter 431 - 303: The Reason for Seeking Death

Spirit Fox, during the material transport, maximized his perception.

Even though Pan Yifu and Black Heaven, whose combat power is not inferior to A-level, were with him, he knew these two were basically out of action.

In the current top combat power, only he was intact, having not made many moves, so he certainly needed to be vigilant.

The war between the Qian Duoduo Team and the Star Thieves has lasted too long; he knew very well what the other party might do.

Upon sensing the Star Thieves’ malicious intent, he threw out three Golden Shields without thinking.

The attacker used the Gauss Machine Gun, clearly demonstrating that during the electromagnetic attack, some weapons were effectively shielded.

The machine gun’s power was considerable, and aiming was still directed at the military station’s interior. Clearly, the Star Thieves had counterattack plans prepared after facing an attack.

The three Golden Shields were deployed hastily, and Spirit Fox didn’t want others to find out he was A-level, so it was a bit difficult to block the machine gun bullets.

However, the targeted ones were Modified Warriors, and this little hindrance gave them enough time to evade.

Another C-level Warrior got furious and directly pinched a technique, "Fire Dragon~"

A Fire Dragon appeared out of thin air and swooped towards that room.

"Water Shield~" At the firing hole position, two Water Shields suddenly appeared, blocking the Fire Dragon.

Clearly, the one deploying the Water Shield was a B-level Warrior; otherwise, it couldn’t be blocked so easily.

"Oh, huh," Spirit Fox laughed angrily upon seeing this, "All sorts of riffraff are coming out, Continuous Golden Arrows~"

A string of golden arrows shot towards the firing hole like electric bolts.

The next moment, a series of explosions rang out, followed by cries of agony; it turned out some arrows directly blew up the machine gun.

However, the gunfire soon resumed, but this time, a B-level Earth Attribute stood in front.

He had Rock Armor; he could withstand the machine gun temporarily, but it wouldn’t last long.

"Bastards!" Pan Yifu got angry upon seeing this, "Dare to fight back? Fire Dragon~"

His Inner Breath was almost depleted, but the Star Thieves still dared to launch an attack, which he couldn’t tolerate.

He forced his hand, not so much to protect the Pioneer Team Members, but the main thing was... didn’t he care about his reputation?

Moreover, half of the cargo the opponent aimed at was his, which he couldn’t tolerate either.

An A-level Fire Dragon’s power naturally couldn’t be matched by a C-level one, directly blowing up another room.

Almost simultaneously, a Thunder Dragon a few centimeters thick appeared, swiftly charging towards another firing hole.

When the Thunder Dragon arrived, the firing hole’s cover hadn’t even fully opened.

Next, electric arcs shot out, and another series of explosions echoed.

Qu Jianlei had just been a bit negligent, and as a consequence, his side nearly paid a heavy price, so he became more alert.

Once the three A-levels focused on the anomalies inside the military station, the Star Thieves had no further chances.

This kind of ambush only caught people off guard; how big is a mere military station? One A-level is enough to control the situation.

Pan Yifu, however, was a bit puzzled, "Are they tired of living? It’s practically courting death!"

Qu Jianlei shook his head, having realized his oversight, "Last time, our detonation of the ammunition depot was rather harsh."

Old Pan responded upon hearing this; during the last attack on that military station, nearly four-fifths of the Star Thieves died.

Since not retaliating is death, retaliating is death as well; this reaction from the Star Thieves was normal.

The next moment, Qu Jianlei unleashed another Thunder Dragon, destroying another room.

Spirit Fox understood; those in that room seemed to not really even move before being struck by lightning.

However, at the moment Black Heaven made his move, he could vaguely sense that the Star Thieves inside the room did indeed harbor some malicious intent.

Then he glanced at Black Heaven again, truly puzzled in his heart: That guy’s perception ability... does it really exceed B-level?

When everyone was transporting materials, during the packing, the process was slightly slow, but the departure speed was very quick.

Qu Jianlei, Pan Yifu, and Spirit Fox brought up the rear, covering the group as they evacuated the military station.

This time, not many of the ammunition in the warehouse remained; everyone moved quite a lot, but critically, the Star Thieves had scattered the ammunition.

However, in the end, Pan Yifu made his move, and a Fire Dragon exploded the ammunition.

Born from the military, they indeed were so ruthless, even knowing that after exploding the ammunition, the next military station would be harder to assault.

The group quickly disappeared into the night.

But carrying large packages, they really couldn’t walk fast, and by dawn, everyone had to dig another cave to stay.

Spirit Fox didn’t rest; he took an injured Wood Attribute Warrior to clear the traces along the way for everyone.

The Pioneer Team Members had faced the Star Thieves too many times, dealing with such small matters really was effortless.

Qu Jianlei also became focused and proposed a suggestion: Whether they could forge traces and lead the pursuing Star Thieves onto a forked path?

A flash of ruthlessness crossed Spirit Fox’s eyes, "No problem, then... how to ambush?"

Qu Jianlei responded decisively, "Bury some ammunition; I’m rather skilled at making traps."

"Alright," Spirit Fox nodded briskly, "I said I’d step in, ammunition... when it needs to be used, it must be used."

Then he glanced at Qu Jianlei, "But these guys don’t dare come out to support at night; do they have the guts to track us during the day?"

"They must," Qu Jianlei replied earnestly, "If they don’t dare to track us during the day, the military morale would definitely fall apart."

Spirit Fox nodded in agreement, "Then let’s find a hillside and trigger a landslide while we’re at it."

Qu Jianlei gave a thumbs up, "Impressive, truly ruthless."

"Come on," Spirit Fox chuckled softly, "I don’t believe you haven’t thought of that."

Qu Jianlei laughed, reminded of things he did in the past.

Back on Garbage Star, he had used explosive charges to trigger an avalanche, wiping out a looting team.

He couldn’t really remember what that team was called anymore; maybe it was... Black Wind?

Spirit Fox executed with great efficiency, immediately calling upon Earth Attribute Warriors to hollow out and camouflage the hillside.

Hours later, right at noon, a thunderous explosion erupted.

The explosion was over thirty kilometers from where they were hiding, but the ground shook noticeably.

Pan Yifu, silently replenishing Qi, couldn’t help but open his eyes at the sound, "Wonder how many were killed."

Soon, Spirit Fox returned stealthily—he was the only one there to observe.

He expressed regret, "What a pity, killed about a dozen, only one B-level, not really worth it."

He had emptied an entire Storage Talisman’s worth of ammunition.

Qu Jianlei smiled indifferently, "As long as they don’t dare to track recklessly in the future, it’s worth it."

Spirit Fox, the head of the Qian Duoduo Team, was actually used to being extravagant, responded with a helpless grunt.

"The main issue is the blocked trade routes; otherwise I could’ve bombarded them with ammunition."

With the Star Thieves no longer searching everywhere, time passed quickly, and suddenly it was dusk.

When Spirit Fox set traps, he emptied a Storage Talisman of ammunition, and Qu Jianlei simply borrowed it from him.

The supplies carried by over twenty people were split in half to fit inside a Storage Talisman, just enough space.

Then Qu Jianlei escorted Pan Yifu away, while the rest of the team continued to head for the field hospital.

With reduced supplies, everyone moved with more ease, finally returning just as the sky was about to brighten.

Spirit Fox was outside erasing traces when Qu Jianlei returned.

He handed the Storage Talisman back to the other, "Thanks, Old Pan is great except for being a bit stingy."

"Thank what," Spirit Fox replied indifferently, "That kind of person is very self-centered. I’ve seen many; only aware of themselves, not others."

Then he looked at Qu Jianlei again and gingerly asked, "Why do I feel your strength is more than B-level?"

Qu Jianlei laughed upon hearing it, "But I wouldn’t suppress my breath, you know that."

Spirit Fox nodded, the two had discussed this issue the day before, "When Zarif is liberated, any interest in joining Qian Duoduo?"

Qu Jianlei hesitated for a moment, then shook his head with a smile, "I’m used to being carefree; the Pioneer Team’s rules seem pretty big, don’t they?"

Spirit Fox replied indifferently, "Rules depend on whom they’re for; with your strength, just following basic rules will do."

Qu Jianlei laughed and didn’t respond to the comment.

"Hey," Spirit Fox saw through his thoughts, sighed helplessly, "The benefits are definitely higher than you think. Is it because my temple is small?"

Qu Jianlei laughed again and finally said, "If you recruit me, Qian Duoduo might regret it."

Upon hearing this, Spirit Fox turned his head to look at him closely, seriously asked, "Have you encountered trouble?"

He could imagine that such a formidable electromagnetic B-level suddenly appearing in Zarif would certainly have a story behind it.

What’s crucial is that this man is still very young, said to have limitless potential.

He believed recruiting Black Heaven was truly worthwhile, as for those troubles? Hehe, Qian Duoduo’s team... who are they afraid of?

I’m somewhat troublesome! Qu Jianlei smiled, "Anyway, it’s hard to explain. Just think of it as me not being able to handle basic rules."

No desire to follow any rules at all? Upon hearing this, Spirit Fox couldn’t continue persuading.

No matter how talented, basic rules must be followed, and the Pioneer Team really cares about cooperation.

He sighed regretfully, "Anyway, since we’ve met, if you change your mind, contact me anytime."

"Definitely," Qu Jianlei replied nonchalantly, "Let’s see when we can liberate first."

"Very soon," Spirit Fox responded confidently, "This time’s offensive will be intense." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Qu Jianlei really couldn’t understand why the other was so confident.

But he also didn’t want to ask too much; some things really aren’t worth investigating too clearly.

However, the next moment, he remembered Old Pan’s confidence.

"Spirit Fox sir, I’d like to ask, what equipment do we have here that can quickly escape Zarif?"
