Chapter 179 My lord, times have changed!
Chapter 179 My lord, times have changed!
Su Chen's lips twitched, and he slapped each of them!
"Just talk, what's with your whining and acting all cutesy!"
"I feel nauseous!!"
Su Chen cursed, then said, "Let's go, let's scout out the hideout first."
As he spoke, he stood up.
The instant he stood up, a fierce attack descended.
Fortunately, Su Chen reacted quickly and dodged it with a flip.
Wu Hao and his group instantly became alert and prepared for battle.
Immediately afterwards, a man dressed in black came out, wearing a mask and with sharp eyes.
"Su Chen, your death is nigh!!"
The man spoke, drawing a long sword from his waist!
Su Chen frowned and said directly, "You're a member of the Orochi Clan!!"
Aside from the Orochi Clan, he couldn't think of anyone else who would want to kill him!
The man sneered, "That's right! Offending the Orochi Clan means certain death!!"
He unleashed the aura of a peak Golden Body Realm cultivator, overwhelming him.
The next second, he made his move.
Su Chen was also circulating his internal energy and was about to make a move when he heard a gunshot.
The man stopped in his tracks, staring at the bloody hole in his lower abdomen, his face full of questions.
Su Chen subconsciously looked behind him and saw Shen Qingli holding a shotgun with smoke still coming out of the barrel!
Wu Hao was completely stunned.
"Wait, what's going on here?"
Shen Qingli replied, "My former instructor gave it to me, saying it was for self-defense!"
"After their modifications, this thing can deal damage to anything below the King level!"
"This guy really lives up to his Golden Body Realm reputation; he's still alive!"
The man in black was completely stunned; his mind went blank!
What's going on here?
In a fight between martial artists, you're using a gun!
Still a troll!
He quickly circulated his own power to stabilize his injuries.
But Shen Qingli pulled the trigger again.
This time, the man was sent flying.
His body crashed to the ground, bleeding profusely.
Su Chen was also stunned. He was all ready for battle, but then...
He couldn't help but look at Shen Qingli.
Shen Qingli gave an awkward laugh and said, "It's just that I felt like I was fighting monsters before, and I wanted to hone my skills!"
"Besides, there were just too many monsters before; even a barrage of attacks couldn't keep up!"
Su Chen didn't say anything, but simply stepped forward and crushed the guy's neck.
Once he was certain the guy was dead, Su Chen took his storage ring and then quickly led them away.
"That damned Orochi Clan, they really won't give up!!"
Wu Hao said, his voice carrying a hint of chill.
Su Chen wasn't surprised at all.
"Last time we raided one of their secret labs, taking away too much critical data and reagents. They definitely won't let this go!"
"Maybe it's already confirmed that we were the ones who did it!"
"So we'll have to face many more assassination attempts in the future!!"
Su Chen said very seriously, his brows furrowing slightly.
He could even foresee that there would be many more assassination attempts to come!
Shen Qingli nodded and said, "In any case, we need to be more careful from now on. Our names might already be on the Orochi Clan's list!"
"This is the front line, and although the military headquarters is here, it can't guarantee the safety of every location!"
They nodded and quickly left.
In the afternoon, they wiped out another monster team, massacred an entire valley, and looted a large amount of resources!
"Boss Su, could this be a supply depot for those demonic beasts?"
Tang Shufei couldn't help but say that his storage ring was full.
Wu Hao stuffed all his pockets with resources, his eyes turning red.
Su Chen frowned and said, "I don't know either!"
"If this were truly a logistics base, it shouldn't be guarded solely by these monsters!"
"If this isn't a logistics base, how come there are so many resources piled up here?"
Su Chen was stunned. Then, he shook his head and said, "Never mind, just take them!"
"Let's go back to camp first!"
The items have already been packed.
Wu Hao and his friends kept stuffing whatever valuables they caught into their mouths.
He didn't care even when his nose bled from eating!
Su Chen was speechless, thinking, "You guys are absolutely shameless!"
After saying that, he swallowed the purple ginseng in his mouth.
Shortly after they left, a demonic beast at the King level appeared in the valley.
It was stunned by what it saw!
What... is going on?
Going out on a date, only to have your home burgled when you get back?
After realizing what was happening, it let out a deafening roar.
The roar shook the mountains and forests, and also alarmed a large number of demonic beasts.
Upon hearing the roar, Su Chen instinctively stopped and looked behind him.
The roar came from the direction of the resources they had just stolen!
"Looks like a big boss discovered his house was burgled!"
Wu Hao said, his expression somewhat sharp.
"Judging from the aura of that roar, it's at least a demonic beast at the king level!"
"If we were to encounter that..."
As Shen Qingli spoke, she looked at Su Chen.
Su Chen's lips twitched, and he said, "Don't fucking look at me, I can't take it either!"
With his current strength, he might be able to fight back, but it would be difficult for him to kill him.
If this guy's cultivation level were any higher, there would be no way to deal with him!
The key point is that Wu Hao and his group are with them...
"Why are you still looking at chicken feathers? Run!"
Wu Hao said, speeding up.
But soon, they heard a flurry of footsteps behind them.
The footsteps were accompanied by the roars of demonic beasts.
Clearly, these monsters have followed the scent and come here.
"This is getting a bit troublesome!"
"This place is too far from the camp; we won't be able to get back anytime soon!"
"These monsters are too fast; they'll probably catch up with us very soon!!"
Su Chen said, his expression unusually solemn!
Wu Hao frowned and said, "If all else fails, we'll stay and fight them to the death!"
"Damn it, with the headquarters secretly protecting us, we're not going to die!!"
Upon hearing this, Su Chen objected.
"No, we can't rely on others every time we encounter danger. Right now, the headquarters is protecting us, but what about later?"
"We must change this; we can't always expect someone to be protecting us in the shadows!"
This is a very serious problem!
If this kind of personality develops now, what will happen in the future?
Long-term dependence can easily lead to errors in their judgment later on.
Shen Qingli also spoke up.
"Su Chen is right. If we always think that someone will cover for us, we won't feel that pressure. The key issue is that in the long run, it can easily lead to wrong judgments in the future!"
Therefore, it's best for us to find a way to resolve this crisis ourselves!
Upon hearing these words, Wu Hao suddenly realized what was happening.
They seem to have realized this as well.
Whenever he encountered danger, his first thought was always, "The headquarters is here anyway, what's there to be afraid of!"
"But what should we do now?"
