Chapter 1238 If You Want a Fight, Challenge Me!
The pharmaceutical factory had been built.
It was all because Fang Qiu developed the medicine to cure malaria.
It could even be said that the pharmaceutical factory was built because of Fang Qiu.
Now…
The Ebala virus broke out in Africo, yet malaria had not been eradicated. Many patients were suffering from the pain brought by the disease, so the factory must not be closed.
The Egyptt government also understood that they had to keep the factory running, no matter what the risks were.
Frankly…
It was not Fang Qiu’s duty to worry about the pharmaceutical factory.
However, as a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, how could he watch patients suffer more pain because they couldn’t get medicine?
“The pharmaceutical plant must be kept running!”
With this in mind…
Fang Qiu immediately found a staff member who was about to transport the medicine to the pharmaceutical factory and inquired about the situation and location of the factory.
It turned out that…
The pharmaceutical factory was indeed only about three kilometers away from the primitive tribe and was in another direction. But, on the map, the factory was even closer to the entrance of the ancient relic than the primitive tribe.
In such circumstances…
Fang Qiu’s heart leaped to his throat.
There was a distance of about ten kilometers between the primitive tribe and the relic entrance, but from the medicine factory to the relic, it was less than seven kilometers.
Given this reality…
What would happen to the pharmaceutical factory when even the primitive tribe was taken as a supply point?
Fang Qiu didn’t think much about it.
Instead, he immediately followed the government staff to the pharmaceutical factory.
“Is there anything unusual going on in your factory?”
Fang Qiu asked on the way.
“No.”
The staff member smiled and said, “I don’t know why many mighty people suddenly came nearby, but the pharmaceutical factory belongs to the government. Under the protection of government forces, those people would not dare to break in.”
“Nothing serious.”
Fang Qiu nodded and said, “After all, they’re just scouting teams. No matter how powerful their forces are, these teams don’t dare to fight against the government troops. But the situation afterward will be different. The Egyptt government is also participating in the competition for the ancient ruin, but none of these forces will show any restraint. So, how could they care about an insignificant drug factory?
“Well, I think the government forces must have been removed. It would only be harmful to the pharmaceutical factory if they stayed there. The staff in the factory are all ordinary people. These forces might not hurt these workers even if they occupy the factory.
“It might not happen, but it doesn’t mean it won’t happen!”
Fang Qiu was still worried.
Three kilometers was not a long distance for them.
They arrived in just five minutes.
As Fang Qiu guessed, people in the pharmaceutical factory had let their guard down. There was no army to protect this place. Anyone could come and go there at will.
Seeing that the government troops had withdrawn, the government officials who came with Fang Qiu, also left one after another. No one dared to stay.
Fang Qiu walked into the pharmaceutical factory.
He found the person in charge of the pharmaceutical factory.
“The government troops have left. Why are you still here?”
Fang Qiu couldn’t help asking.
“I want to, but I can’t.”
With a wry smile, the person responsible for the factory said, “This drug factory belongs to the government. I’m in charge of it, so I’ll have to take the blame if anything, even any accidents, happened to the factory. When the government forces withdrew, I warned the employees here that staying here for the next few days would be very dangerous. But still, many people came here to work. We would very likely get injured because of an accident. These workers were asked to take a break for some time before returning to work, but they were unwilling to do so.”
“They won’t get paid if they don’t work. Without any salary, how can they live and support their families?”
“Anyway, the workers wouldn’t leave. As a result, the government guaranteed they would get double wages for working amid the hazardous situation this month.”
Fang Qiu heard what he said.
He couldn’t refrain from sighing with emotion.
“Africo is so poor.”
Kairo was a flourishing city with a lot of rich people. However, to put it bluntly, many poor and jobless people couldn’t even get any leftovers every day in this city.
In such a harsh environment…
For these workers, jobs were as crucial as their lives.
Thus, no matter how risky it was, they were reluctant to leave.
“You guys focus on the production.”
Fang Qiu told the person in charge, “I will help you block outsiders and won’t let them affect you.”
The person in charge thanked him.
Then…
Fang Qiu asked the person in charge for a huge cardboard. When he found a pen, he wrote some English words: “Stop!!! The medicine produced here can cure Africo malaria. It’s vital to the lives of tens of thousands of people in Africo. If you want a fight, challenge me!”
When he saw Fang Qiu’s announcement, the supervisor of the pharmaceutical factory was shocked and saw Fang Qiu in a new light.
Fang Qiu finished writing.
Then he found a wooden pillar, nailed the large board on the pillar, and walked to the factory gate. After planting the notice board into the ground, he stood nearby and rested with his eyes closed.
Soon…
Early the next morning…
“Pitter-patter…”
Sounds of footsteps were heard.
Fang Qiu opened his eyes.
At a glance, he saw a large group of 30 to 40 people.
He stared at them intently.
To his surprise, it was one of the forces that had forcibly occupied the primitive tribe back then.
Obviously…
This force had received the news that the government troops here had retreated, so they came here especially to take over the pharmaceutical factory first. However, they didn’t expect to see Well Known upon their arrival!
The name, Well Known, would stick in their heads in the near future.
Well Known alone drove away an entire force. Then, merely with his strength, he knocked down hundreds of people from dozens of forces. They knew full well that they couldn’t afford to offend such an intimidating expert.
They came closer.
All of them were slightly taken aback when they read the words on that giant board.
They looked at each other helplessly and left after their leader.
Throughout the process…
The 30 to 40 people didn’t utter a single word.
After this force left, forces from all over the world soon arrived.
Because this pharmaceutical factory was the building closest to the entry of the ancient ruin, every force wanted to use the place as a replenishment base for themselves.
But…
When they spotted the sign before the gate and ‘Well Known’, who became famous after the fierce battle a few days ago, they were all terribly surprised.
“Malaria? Is that a hazardous infectious disease?”
“This person seems to be doing something good.”
“No wonder there were government troops who were on guard here a few days ago. It is a pharmaceutical factory that makes malaria medicine.”
“The local government left it behind, but a Huaxia guy came out to guard it?”
“I didn’t even know there was actually such a righteous person in Huaxia. I admire him.”
“Since so, let’s not get our supplies here.”
After seeing the sign, forces coming here turned around and left one by one.
They were all very powerful.
But they were not evil.
Therefore…
In this case, they wouldn’t seize this place heartlessly. After all, as human beings, they had compassion for the unfortunate.
Of course…
In addition to their compassionate feelings, many actively tried to avoid any conflict with Fang Qiu who had unmatched strength.
In the last battle, he drove all the forces out of the primitive tribe.
These forces reported the situation.
They came to a conclusion.
The man who called himself Well Known had the strength of an A-class or even A+!
A man with such strength couldn’t be a threat to the top major forces. But since they were about to compete for those fruits and the ancient relic, no force was willing to provoke him and create any trouble at this time.
As for those medium-sized forces, none of them dared to provoke Fang Qiu!
Soon…
All the forces that had arrived early walked away, one after another.
In the blink of an eye…
It was four o’clock in the afternoon.
“Whoosh!”
Fang Qiu, who hadn’t been disturbed for more than an hour, was attracted by a sudden gust of wind.
He opened his eyes.
The person before him was dressed in a style that looked quite familiar to Fang Qiu.
The man had a jacket usually worn by Europa cowboys, with a waist-length cloak on his shoulders. Upon a closer look, Fang Qiu saw he had a gun behind him, which hung from his waist.
It was a double-barrelled rifle!
It was precisely the same as the hunting gun of the guru killed by Diwu Mingchuan in Zangjiang!
Then Fang Qiu looked at his face.
He saw a particularly rugged face with a beard resembling Wolverine’s and two deep nasolabial folds.
In this man’s eyes, Fang Qiu saw an overwhelmingly arrogant look!
Nevertheless…
From his appearance, Fang Qiu couldn’t tell which country this person came from. After all, in the eyes of Huaxia people, all foreigners seemed to look the same.
“I don’t know which force he is in, but there seem to be many similar gunmen.”
Fang Qiu said to himself.
Just as he was about to ask…
The gunman suddenly turned to look into the distance and quickly walked away.
Fang Qiu was startled.
To his great surprise…
After the gunman left…
A green light rushed over from a distance.
He stared intently at it.
The green light looked like a person made of glass!
From head to toe, the figure was jade green and transparent, as if it were an illusion.
But…
As he approached Fang Qiu, his green body which was as clear as glass, faded fast. In a twinkling, he turned into a young man who wore Europa-style noble clothes.
“Malaria?”
The youth carefully looked at the placard next to Fang Qiu, smiled, and said, “The guy from Greacie seemed kind.”
Afterward…
The young man turned and left.
“Greacie?”
The young man left, but his words fanned Fang Qiu’s curiosity.
Little did he think that the gunman was from Greacie.
Then…
“What about the young man before him?”
“How could he virtualize his body?”
“What kind of skill did he use? Which country and which force did he come from?”
Fang Qiu thought for a while.
He shook his head and didn’t pursue these matters.
Since he was already here, he had plenty of time to learn about them!
Soon after…
Another group of people arrived.
There seemed to be four teams coming from afar.
Among them, Fang Qiu saw many familiar figures.
Murica, a descendant of the vampires, Lester.
Rashk, a werewolf, Yakov.
Anglan, a witch, Isabel.
L’hexagone, a remarkable talent, Bernard!
Special envoys from four great countries…
Behind each of them was a small group. At a glance, Fang Qiu learned these people were at least at the eighth-class level, but there were no experts who were as powerful as gurus.
