322 Being Targeted

"I told you not to wear dresses, but you wouldn't listen to me. See, now we're in trouble," Long Qingying looked at the angry Lin Wenwen and said.

"How am I supposed to know? I thought we don't need to travel around in this base like outside. But, we actually ran into such a disgusting family, ugh!" Lin Wenwen said unhappily. Then, she thought of something, and stopped abruptly to look around.

"Miss. Lu, are you here? I know you are. Thank you for helping me just now!"

Lin Qiao showed up beside her and said, "You need to be more careful in crowded places. You're a girl, and you're pretty. This isn't your Hades Base, so the people here won't be afraid of you. Also, Wu Chengyue was right. From now on, you all need to stay on alert against Yang Chao. He'll definitely try to take revenge on us."

Lin Wenwen quickly nodded and responded, "Em, I get it."

At that moment, Long Qingying suddenly asked, "Where have you been these days? Didn't you go after Deputy Chief Yuan that day? But, he told us it was Lili who found him, and not you."

Lin Qiao turned to walk forward while answering her question, "I was in my space, handling some things. It was done today, so I came out. Unexpectedly, I found you in trouble once I got out. You're both girls, so can you not always run about?"

While talking to Lin Wenwen, she couldn't help but always use the instructive tone that she used to employ on her before.

"Alright," Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying both nodded, then followed behind Lin Qiao.

After arriving at the Mission Hall, they saw Chen Yuting standing by their stand, talking to Lin Hao and Du Yuanxing.

"Eh? Why are you here? Have you found more people for us?" Lin Wenwen walked over and asked curiously. The few people who were having a conversation turned to look at them. Upon seeing Lin Qiao who hadn't shown up for days, they all paused slightly.

Chen Yuting reacted pretty quickly as he nodded and smiled, "Ah, you guessed right. I've indeed brought you some people."

"How many?" Lin Wenwen asked with glowing eyes, and Chen Yuting showed her three fingers.

"Thirty?" said Lin Wenwen.

"Three hundred," said Lin Hao.

"Really! That's great! But… Captain Chen, where did you find so many people?" Lin Wenwen was thrilled the moment she heard the number. But right afterward, she asked with confusion.

"I didn't find them," said Chen Yuting, "Chief Wu sent them to you."

Lin Wenwen, Lin Qiao, and the others were all puzzled.

"Chief Wu? He sent three-hundred people to help us?"

Chen Yuting nodded.

"That's wonderful. So, we can start working very soon, right?" Lin Wenwen said excitedly, looking at the others with sparkling eyes. Lin Hao and the others all nodded in agreement.

"Ah, but we need to wait for the five who came here for interviews today," said Du Yuanxing, "Or, maybe we can send someone where they live to tell them about the news. They all live in the same place anyway."

Lin Wenwen nodded and said, "Tonight when we get back, we'll tell our brother and Tianxing to decide on the time of departure, then we'll send someone to tell them."

The others nodded.

In a room on the other side of the Mission Hall, Piao Gecang stood by the window, his eyes fixed on Long Qingying.

"Who're they?" He asked the man behind him.

That man who had been drinking tea was no one else but Yang Hui, who was in the market downstairs just now. Hearing the question, he stood up and walked to Piao Gecang's side, then glanced where the latter was looking.

"Ah, those people are from the destroyed Hades Base. Just now, they had a fight with my little sister and humiliated us! Which one do you like? The one with a katana? I have my eyes on the one in a dress. She's mine," said Yang Hui.

Piao Gecang licked his dry lips, his eyes showing the lust for possession. "No, I like the one with a katana. Look at how straight her back is. The cold vibe of hers… I wonder if she'll act differently when she's screwed by a man," he clicked his tongue and continued, "Even thinking about that turns me on."

"Wu Chengyue has said that these Hades Base people are under his protection," said Yang Hui worriedly, "So, if you want to do something, better not let him find out. Or, you'll be dealing with the consequences alone."

Piao Gecang responded scornfully, "Under his protection? So what? Isn't that Chen Yuting under his protection too? I've already slept with that man's wife today. But, that was just an ordinary woman, nothing fun. If she didn't have those large breasts, I'd get tired of her very soon."

Yang Hui looked at him with surprise and asked, "You had Chen Yuting's woman? Where's she now?"

"Still in Region F," said Piao Gecang, "I gave her to my brothers as a reward."

Yang Hui's expression turned slightly serious as he said, "You better not let anyone else find out about it, or not even my boss can protect you. You need to know what results raping women in the base can lead to."

"No, they won't find her," said Piao Gecang carelessly.

At night, Lin Wenwen and her friends went back and gave Lin Feng Chen Yuting's name list, as well as the names of the people who were newly recruited today.

While reading the list, Lin Feng nodded and said, "Eh, this afternoon when we were in his place, Chief Wu had told us that he would send some people to help us. We'll pay them with food according to the grades of their jobs."

Yuan Tianxing sat beside him and said, "Now, we have about three hundred and fifty people in total. We still need a few trucks to bring these people there."

After saying that, he glanced at Lin Qiao who was playing Rock, Paper, Scissors with Lin Xiaolu, then continued, "But for the sake of Miss. Lu, Chief Wu solved the truck problem for us."

Lin Qiao glanced back at Yuan Tianxing, then responded with her dry voice, "Em, he does know how to return favors."

Lin Xiaolu looked at her and asked with curiosity, "Last time when Xiaolu triggered her power, you only spent a night to wake her up. But, why did you spend three days to help Chief Wu's daughter this time? Is that because Chief Wu's daughter was too young?"

Lin Qiao responded, "No, it was because when I found her, her power has been waking up for days. Yuan Tianxing had suspended the progress with my lake water, but too much energy had accumulated inside her body. We had to spend more time to channel that energy, as we were worried that his daughter's body might not be able to take it."

"When will we leave then?" Yuan Tianxing asked, "We'll bring this batch of people there."

Lin Feng glanced at him, then at Lin Qiao. "What do you think?" he asked Lin Qiao, "You picked the location, so you can also arrange the time."

Yuan Tianxing nodded to agree.

Lin Qiao continued the game with Lin Xiaolu while replying, "Tomorrow afternoon… We'll leave at two o'clock."

Yuan Tianxing nodded and said, "Good! Tomorrow morning, I'll send someone to inform the people we interviewed today, as well as Chen Yuting."
