Chapter 866: Taking The Bait ( 3 )
At the same time, Qin Luzi noticed movement on his map and said, "Captain, the first fish has taken the bait."
Hearing this, Jin Xuyan nodded and said, "Yusheng, slice the meat thinner. There will be a lot of fish coming."
Yin Yusheng laughed and turned to Yu Fuyun. "Fuyun, did you hear that? Slice the meat thinner."
"Okay!" Yu Fuyun nodded, and the movement of his hands slowed down. He sliced the roasted meat as if he were performing surgery. The meat was so thin that it almost turned transparent.
Seeing this, Du Beiye frowned and said, "Can they even taste the meat at that thickness?"
"Beiye, the main point is not to let them taste the meat, but to use this meat to make a deal with them," Li Sikai said as he continued turning the stick to ensure that the meat was roasted evenly.
At the same time, Zhou Huajian was busy smearing a layer of sauce on the meat. The oil dripped from the meat, and the moment it met the fire, they heard sizzling sounds.
The rest of the members had nothing to do, so they closed their eyes and circulated their energy to consolidate their energy pool.
Twenty minutes later, Bryan and his team finally arrived. When they came out of their car, they were stunned to see them so relaxed.
"Don’t lower your guard. These people are not simple," he reminded his team members. As he walked over, he pulled Kelly’s wrist and kept her close to him.
Seeing them coming, Jin Xuyan glanced at Pei Yixie. Meeting her brother’s gaze, she nodded and gave him an "OK" sign.
Standing 2 meters away from them, Bryan observed the Phantom Team for a moment before Zhang Yuan stood up and asked in fluent Thirteen Colonies’ language, "Do you need anything?"
The moment Kelly saw them, she couldn’t hold back her excitement and wanted to speak. But before she could take a step forward, she was held back by Bryan. He narrowed his eyes and pulled her back.
Taking a step forward, he said, "My name is Bryan Roosevelt, Captain of Angelus Lux Team." After a moment of pause, he asked, "Did your team eliminate all the zombies inside?"
Zhang Yuan nodded and asked, "Is there a problem with that?"
Bryan shook his head and glanced at the roasted meat. "I want to make a deal with your team."
Hearing this, Zhang Yuan smiled and asked, "Oh? What kind of deal?"
"I want to exchange crystal cores for mutant meat."
When the members heard this, they exchanged glances.
Although they said nothing, the Angelus Lux Team members felt that they were being looked down upon by this group of people.
As the youngest core member, Lucas was easily provoked. He walked forward and asked angrily, "Are you looking down on us?"
Noticing his hostility, the Phantom Team members stood up in unison and stared at him as if he were a dead person.
At first, Bryan and his team members thought that these people looked lean and short. Due to their prejudice against people from the eastern regions, they didn’t take the Phantom Team seriously.
But when they saw that the members of this team were intimidating and exuding a murderous aura, they realized how small-minded they had been.
Lucas was only 18 years old. Although he had killed a lot of zombies and several mutants, this was the first time he had met a group of trained soldiers. He couldn’t help but feel scared and took a few steps back.
Both teams stared at each other in silence. Suddenly, Kelly raised her hand and broke the silence. "Comrade, please calm down."
When the Phantom Team heard someone speak their national language so fluently, they turned toward the source. The moment they saw a petite girl walking from behind the tall, handsome blond man, they were taken aback.
Seeing her, Pei Yixie said, "Brother, she is from Huaxia. She wants to join us and return home."
After she said this, the members’ murderous intent disappeared instantly. They would treat those who protected their people with politeness.
Zhang Yuan smiled and walked over to Kelly. He reached out and said, "Hello, Comrade. My name is Zhang Yuan, the Vice Captain of the Phantom Team from Lin’an City Base."
Hearing the familiar city name, Kelly was overjoyed. She reached out to shake his hand and introduced herself, "Comrade Zhang, my name is Rong Qiaohui. Here, people call me Kelly."
"Rong Qiaohui?" Jiao Lizhi muttered to herself. "Comrade Rong, do you know Rong Qinyu or Rong Mo’er?" she asked with curiosity.
The moment she heard this, Rong Qiaohui asked, "Comrade, you know about my brother and cousin?"
Xiao Qi was taken aback and asked, "Are you Rong Qinyu’s sister?"
Rong Qiaohui nodded and asked, "How are my brother and cousin? Are my family still alive?"
"Both Rong Qinyu and Rong Mo’er are doing well in the Lin’an City Base. As for the rest of their family, we don’t know about their whereabouts or situation," Qin Luzi replied.
Hearing this, the light in Rong Qiaohui’s eyes dimmed. After a moment, she regained her composure and said, "Comrade, I want to go back to Huaxia. Can I follow you?"
When Bryan heard this, he clenched his fists tightly. While he was not fluent in the Huaxia language, he could understand most of their conversation.
The moment he saw her crying in her sleep, he knew this day would come. He had long prepared to be separated from her and, therefore, never expressed his feelings to her. Not to mention that their age gap was big, he couldn’t bear to force her to stay.
Jin Xuyan gestured for them to come over and said in Thirteen Colonies language, "Have a seat." He gestured to Yin Yusheng, who placed several plates of sliced roasted meat on the table.
Bryan nodded at his members and took his seat. He also gestured for Kelly to sit beside him.
