Since Xu Xiafeng received foreign gene grafting a month ago, he has transformed from an enhancer into a first-level ability user.
The same is true for Dugu Po.
Logically speaking, since both of them are first-level ability users, the difference in strength shouldn't be too big.
But when Dugu Po faced Xu Xiafeng, he couldn't help but feel a sense of vigilance.
He also asked Wang Jue about this, but the answer he got was somewhat unexpected.
Wang Jue believed that the foreign genes in the two bodies may have come from organisms that restrained each other, so after grafting, the host also showed corresponding characteristics.
It is also interesting to say that the foreign genes of the two soldiers came from the most common stray animals in the city.
Dugupo's foreign genes come from an agile predator - the Chinese civet cat.
The foreign gene grafted onto Xu Xiafeng came from an unknown type of native dog.
The habitats of these two creatures basically overlap, and they can often be seen fighting in nature.
It can't be called an apex predator, but it is quite difficult to deal with after being infected and mutated by the virus.
Xu Xiafeng and Dugupo both tried their best to obtain foreign genes that could be grafted.
Relying on Wang Jue's unnatural means, he directly avoided genetic selection and successfully grafted.
But even a three-year-old child knows that cats and dogs have been enemies since ancient times.
Not to mention the breed of local dog and the bloodline of Chinese civet cat, as long as cats and dogs meet, there will be some sparks.
Therefore, Wang Jue believed that the reason why Dugu Po was wary of Xu Xiafeng was because of the relationship between the two's foreign genes.
And this crazy female doctor also gave a guess.
As long as Dugu Po's strength surpasses Xu Xiafeng's, this sense of vigilance that follows him will completely disappear.
However, it is very difficult to become stronger. In addition to improving physical fitness, there are also many psychological obstacles to overcome.
This is one of the reasons why Dugu Po wants to target Xu Xia Feng.
"I said, isn't it inappropriate to leave such an important matter in the shelter to an ordinary person?"
Staring at Xu Xiafeng's rough round face, Dugu Po gritted his teeth and spoke word by word.
He tried hard to overcome his inner vigilance and try his best to prevent it from developing into fear.
If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.
Dugu Po believes that since he wants to be the king who leads the overall situation, he must overcome difficulties one after another.
And Xu Xiafeng is the biggest difficulty in front of him.
"Oh... what do you think, Sergeant Dugu? Don't be shy, but it doesn't matter!"
Hearing Dugu Po repeat his previous words, Xu Xiafeng's face showed an exaggerated realization.
He pressed his nostrils with his stubby fingers, raised the corners of his mouth, and spoke.
"Hmph, I think it's better to let Captain Qiu of Qiu Qianjun control the overall situation. With the cooperation of that person named Xiaoran, the Siming Mountain Shelter can be called truly safe."
"Crack."
Qiu Qianjun put down the pen in his hand, but did not speak.
The man with a gentle face just raised his head and looked at Dugu Po not far away.
"Oh? Sergeant Dugu really thinks so?"
Xu Xiafeng's eyes almost narrowed into two lines, but the light emitted from them still made everyone present shiver involuntarily.
The two people sitting next to Xu Xiafeng even subconsciously gave way to the distance, as if something bad would happen the next moment.
"I am also considering this for the sake of the shelter. You must know that the superiors have delegated power to us to the maximum extent. We must take every step carefully and must not be careless!"
Feeling the murderous intent in Xu Xiafeng's eyes, Dugu Po adjusted his tone of voice and tried to make his remarks stand firm by using "the development of Siming Mountain" as a reason.
But who is Xu Xiafeng?
He is the former military commander of the Ninth Military Region!
To be able to sit in this position under the age of fifty must either have experienced a war with live ammunition or have extraordinary military qualities.
In Xu Xiafeng's eyes, Dugu Po's little thoughts were as transparent and clear as a child's playing house.
He didn't bother to teach the other party, so he simply used his usual tricks and acted like a bandit leader.
A smile suddenly broke out on Xu Xiafeng's face, and at the same time, his body leaned back and leaned on the strong back of the chair.
The two legs were placed in front of the tattered conference table in an extremely smooth manner.
Pretend to be stupid, finish pretending to be stupid first, and then start to act stupid!
"Sergeant Dugu, it seems you haven't figured out the situation yet?"
Xu Xiafeng smiled, his face full of friendliness and harmony.
"The Siming Mountain Shelter has been reorganized. Although we are still a military force now, we are no longer the army that served the people before the disaster."
"If Sergeant Dugu still has some passion that you want to spill, I can give you a personal suggestion."
"You just kill me, and you become the boss of this shelter. Then everyone will listen to you. Isn't this wonderful? Hahaha..."
Accompanied by his rough laughter, the conference room was as silent as death.
Everyone kept silent in a tacit agreement, as if they didn't hear Xu Xiafeng's explosive words just now.
Dugu Po was stunned on the spot, looking like he had not expected this outcome at all.
"you you……"
Dugu stared at you for a long time, but he couldn't come up with a complete sentence from his mouth.
Finally, Qiu Qianjun spoke, breaking the weird atmosphere in the conference room.
I saw him sighing.
"Sergeant Dugu, you and I can be considered comrades-in-arms who have shared weal and woe together. When we go to other people's territory, we naturally have to obey their rules. Isn't it okay for everyone to be harmonious?"
Hearing what Qiu Qianjun said, Dugu Po seemed to have suddenly grabbed a life-saving straw, and an expression of grievance instantly appeared on his face.
"I just put forward my own suggestions, and Sergeant Xu said this. Could it be that this Siming Mountain Shelter has really become a talking point?!"
"Heh, I, Xu Xia Feng, have a soft ear and can listen to good things. But if you try to be tough with me, I really won't be happy with it."
Xu Xiafeng leaned back and used the power of his legs to tilt the chair under his buttocks, making a squeaking sound.
He looked like a gangster right now.
There is no trace of a soldier anywhere.
"If Sergeant Dugu is really dissatisfied with my decision, then let's vote by a show of hands and see what everyone in the conference room thinks?"
"snort!"
Facing Xu Xiafeng's words that looked like slippers but were actually threats, Dugu Po snorted coldly and spoke with the same tough attitude.
"I, Dugu, am just putting forward my own opinion. Who doesn't know that the Siming Mountain Shelter is under the sole control of you, Boss Feng. If you can hear what I say, just listen. If you don't, just treat me as fart. There is no need to do it here. What a show of hands!”
After saying these words, Dugu Po immediately stood up and left the conference room without looking back.
Seeing this move, Xu Xiafeng didn't have much strange look on his face, but instead it hurt the soldiers behind Dugu Po.
They are all Dugupo's cronies, and they followed him all the way from N City to the Siming Mountain Refuge.
Seeing their boss leaving in anger, several people looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Finally, Qiu Qianjun spoke calmly and persuaded the poor soldiers to find their way.
"What are you guys doing standing around here, waiting for dinner? Go and persuade your Sergeant Dugu to hurry up..."
After saying that, Qiu Qianjun faced Xu Xiafeng and said.
"Sergeant Xu, is this a little too much?"
"Excessive? Huh...I'm talking about Brother Qiu, not you. You really need to be more decisive in some areas. Don't be timid like a girl..."
While talking, Xu Xiafeng used a thicker finger and picked his nostrils more seriously.
"Sergeant Xu, the damage area of your map cannon is a bit wide, isn't it? Our Qiu team is just here to be peacemakers, why are you also 'condemning' us?"
It was not Qiu Qianjun who spoke this time, but a soldier behind him with a face like an eagle and sharp eyes.
This person's name is Yu Hualuo. Although he is an ordinary person, his skill and character are truly outstanding. He has followed Qiu Qianjun for the longest time and is also his most valued right-hand man.
If I have to use a metaphor, the relationship between this man and Qiu Qianjun is somewhat similar to that between Xu Xiafeng and Bai Donggu.
It's just that he and Qiu Qianjun have a relationship between subordinates and superiors, while Xu Xiafeng and Bai Donggu are more like brothers on the same level.
"It's not easy to be a peacemaker, huh...I remember you. Lao Bai mentioned it to me. Your name is...Yu Hualuo, right?"
Xu Xiafeng's eyes narrowed, and instead of showing an angry look on his face, he looked Yu Hualuo up and down.
"That's right, you can't change your name if you work, and you can't change your surname if you sit down!"
Facing Xu Xiafeng's pressure, although Yu Hualuo couldn't help but tremble, he still held up his face and forced his gaze to meet her!
Looking at each other for three seconds, Xu Xiafeng suddenly laughed without warning.
"Okay, Yu Hualuo, I will remember you. If you have the guts, I, Xu Xiafeng, likes you!"
Yu Hualuo, on the other hand, smiled faintly and took half a step back to apologize.
"I'm sorry, Sergeant Xu, I don't have that hobby, please respect yourself!"
Faced with this kind of insulting response, Xu Xiafeng was shocked at first, and then the smile on his face became more and more unrestrained.
"Damn it, Qiu Qianjun, the soldiers below you are quite interesting..."
Seeing that the topic was gradually changing, Qiu Qianjun had no choice but to suppress his helpless emotions and spoke in a deep voice.
"Sergeant Xu, let's continue discussing business..."
"Hey, okay, okay, let's discuss business, discuss business..."
At this moment, Xu Xiafeng seemed to be a different person, and he took his legs off the table very cooperatively.
While speaking, his eyes kept looking at Yu Hualuo who was behind Qiu Qianjun.
"For your sake, I'd like to apologize to your boss, brother Qiu, I just farted blindly. You, sir, have a lot, so don't take it to heart..."
