Chapter 37 - An Unexpected Encounter



Those who were strong or equipped with good gear were quickly chosen. The old, weak, sick, or those without any decent preparation were left behind, unselected.

Without a doubt, Chuchu, being so young, was categorized among the old, weak, and disabled, and no one chose her.

After all, patrolling outside carried a certain amount of risk, and no one wanted to bring along a burden. In their eyes, a little girl like Chuchu was just that—an unnecessary burden.

“Hey! You! Yes, you! Follow me!” A cocky genetic warrior casually pointed at a muscular bald man.

“Thank you, sir!” The bald man was overjoyed and eagerly ran over.

The cocky genetic warrior seemed very pleased with the bald man’s eagerness, his face showing an air of superiority. But this was normal.

These refugees were mere ordinary people; how could they compare to genetic warriors? In this era, strength was status.

“Hey! Kid, you too!” The cocky genetic warrior turned his gaze to Qin Feng.

Qin Feng glanced at him.

This guy is only a Level 3 genetic warrior. His strength ranks somewhere in the middle among the ten genetic warriors, not particularly outstanding. The strength of the leader had an impact on the safety of the team members.

“Hey! The lord is calling you, stop dawdling! Hurry up!” The bald man, seeing Qin Feng not moving, quickly urged him, trying to curry favor with the cocky genetic warrior.

“I’ll join you, but you have to take my sister too,” Qin Feng said, pointing to Chuchu standing beside him.

The cocky genetic warrior saw how small Chuchu was and immediately shook his head.

“Forget it!”

He turned and walked away without looking back, clearly unwilling to take on a burden.

Feeling rejected, Chuchu pouted and muttered under her breath, “What’s the big deal! I’m actually very strong!”

Qin Feng smiled and patted the little girl on the head. This was exactly the effect he wanted. The more underestimated Chuchu was, the safer she would be.

Just then, another genetic warrior with a kind face approached. This one was a middle-aged man, a Level 4 genetic warrior.

In terms of strength, he was among the strongest of the ten genetic warriors, and many refugees hoped to join him. However, this middle-aged man didn’t pick anyone; instead, he walked directly toward Chuchu.

“Little girl, would you like to join my group?” The middle-aged man gave a kind smile.

“Um…” Chuchu was a bit surprised. “I want to be with my brother. Can you let my brother join your group too?”

The middle-aged man glanced at Qin Feng and smiled. “Of course!”

Chuchu was delighted. “See, brother! Someone does want to choose me! Thank you, uncle!”

The middle-aged man chuckled, “From now on, just call me Captain. When you call me ‘uncle,’ I feel like I’m getting old. Oh, by the way, my name is He Feng. What are your names?”

“I’m Chuchu!” The little girl happily gave her name, feeling the joy of being recognized.

“And you, young man?” He Feng smiled warmly at Qin Feng.

“Qin Feng.” Qin Feng’s tone was neither warm nor cold. He felt something odd about He Feng. While other captains were busy picking the strong, this guy had chosen Chuchu first, which was unusual.

“Captain He, my sister doesn’t have much combat ability. I’m afraid she might hold you back this time,” Qin Feng said deliberately.

“I picked her because she’s young and I wanted to take care of her,” He Feng said with a sudden sense of nostalgia. “Seeing Chuchu reminds me of my own sister. Back then, my sister was just about this age when she was taken by the beast tide…”

“Sorry for bringing up painful memories…”

“It’s all right!” He Feng smiled gently. “Here, take these two pistols. I noticed neither of you have any weapons for self-defense. We’ll be leaving the city soon, and there might be some danger.”

He Feng handed two pistols to Chuchu and Qin Feng. These pistols were specially made, capable of harming Level 1 beasts, and they were worth tens of thousands of credits on the market. Most people wouldn’t be willing to lend them out so easily.

He Feng was being quite generous.

After giving his instructions, He Feng went to recruit other people.

“Brother, Captain He is really nice!” Chuchu said, playing with the pistol, feeling quite touched.

“Maybe,” Qin Feng said casually as he put away his pistol.

Half an hour later, everyone had been divided into groups.

He Feng’s group consisted of ten people, with Qin Feng and Chuchu being the youngest among them. After the grouping, Chen Ming arranged for ten trucks to transport the groups to the S-22 defense zone outside the city.

An hour later, Qin Feng and the others arrived at the S-22 defense zone. A government military force was stationed there, with thousands of genetic warrior soldiers and hundreds of quasi-elementalists serving as officers.

In addition, there were a few one-star elementalists holding senior officer positions.

At that moment, the defense zone’s plaza was packed with hundreds of refugees, all gathered from the surrounding refugee areas. Qin Feng and Chuchu were among them.

“What’s the main task of our patrol this time?”

“What else? When the garrison patrols, we’re just here to assist them, doing things like engineer work.”

“That’s true! If we really encounter any beasts, we’d just have to run for our lives and leave it to the soldiers…”

From time to time, whispers spread through the crowd.

Just then, a group of soldiers approached from the front. The three leading men all wore baron medals on their chests, a mark of one-star elementalists. The crowd immediately buzzed with excitement.

“Look! Three elementalists are coming!”

“Shh~! Keep your voice down! They’re senior officers of the garrison.”

At this, the crowd gradually quieted down.

“Brother, the elementalists are so cool!” Chuchu said with admiration.

Qin Feng smiled and looked up at the three elementalists.

None of them were a match for him. But when he saw the face of the leader, a flicker of surprise flashed in his eyes. The leader was none other than Liu Yan…
