Xiangcheng base, Tang family villa.
"Mingsi, how is Lao Qi doing over there? Is there any progress?"
"We already have some clues."
Thinking of Tang Li's appearance in the laboratory, Tang Mingsi couldn't help but shudder.
"When will there be results?"
Tang Mingsi felt that Tang Mingyi looked at her with an eagle-like scrutiny, as if he was trying to see through the fear and fear in his heart.
"This, it's hard to say. After all, the experiment... materials are limited, and they don't dare to be too aggressive."
A drop of cold sweat gradually formed on the tip of Tang Mingsi's nose. After waiting for a long time, she heard Tang Mingyi's voice.
"Okay, got it."
Unlike Tang Mingsi, although Tang You is also a young lady of the Tang family, she is not qualified to participate in such an important family meeting.
At this moment, the lights in the Tang family villa were brightly lit, but she could only stand in the yard and blow the cold wind with the security guard.
The temperature is a bit low tonight, with a cold wind mixed with light rain.
Tang You was in a very bad mood at the moment. Before the newly purchased slave could be trained, she was called to her master's house.
"Eh? Isn't this Sister Tang You from my second cousin's house? Why are you standing in the rain? You bunch of indifferent people, why don't you hurry up and get an umbrella?"
"Yes, Master Six."
Upon hearing this, the security guard on the side quickly took out an umbrella, opened it, and handed it to Tang You.
"Thank you Ming Nian," Tang You took the umbrella and thanked her.
"Cousin, why are you being so polite to me?"
Tang Mingnian shook the bangs in front of his forehead in boredom, and then seemed to suddenly remember something, rolled his eyes, and then leaned over and asked softly: "I heard that my cousin bought a good slave today, when will I lend it to my brother?" Are you having fun?"
Tang Ming Nian's careless and matter-of-fact look made Tang You's heart skip a beat.
Veins popped out on the back of her hand holding the handle of the umbrella, but she knew she couldn't offend her cousin.
"I just got it and haven't trained it yet. Once my cousin has trained it, I will definitely lend it to my cousin to play with!"
Tang You resisted the urge to run away, squeezed out a smile, and agreed to the other party's request.
"Then we've agreed." Tang Mingnian smiled happily when he heard this.
"certainly". She gritted her teeth, feeling secretly resentful.
Looking at Tang Mingnian's retreating figure, Tang You was so angry that she wanted to throw the umbrella in her hand at his face, this dude! He wants to exchange himself for a second-level superpower slave with just an umbrella. This guy is getting more and more shameless.
Speaking of slaves, Tang You couldn't help but think of the unpleasantness she encountered at the slave market during the day. The slave she had been thinking about actually left with another woman.
Thinking of that woman's cold face, Tang You wanted to peel her face off.
In the Xiangcheng base, she has yet to meet anyone who dares not to take the Tang family seriously.
I don’t know which corner the woman emerged from. Once she knows the identity of the other party, she must make her look good.
The Qingmang Team is like a stone suddenly thrown into the lake. It has also appeared and attracted the attention of all parties.
Ever since this team appeared on the superpower list, it has always been a legendary existence. Many people want to know about them. Unfortunately, they are very low-key and have never appeared in public.
Everyone had been repairing at the base for a few days, and everyone else was doing their own things. Only Qu Xingchi would run out to have fun from time to time.
That day, when he was going out for a stroll as usual, a young man suddenly stopped him.
"Brother, may I ask if your surname is Qu?"
"Huh? Who are you? Do we know each other?"
"Hello, Brother Qu..."
"Stop yelling, how can I have a brother as big as you?"
Qu Xingchi looked at this tall man with a beard inexplicably.
"You are a senior, so you should call me brother."
Seeing the other party's respectful look, Qu Xingchi touched it
Touching his chin: "You are quite good at talking. What do you want? How do you know me?"
"My name is Gao Xing, and I am an earth-type superpower," the bearded man said with an honest smile, "I'm about to reach the second level. When will Captain Lin be recruiting people? Can you sign up for me in advance? ah."
"You want to join our team?" Qu Xingchi was a little surprised.
"That's right, isn't your team a human being? I'll sign up now!" Gao Xing looked at Qu Xingchi eagerly and said.
"But our captain didn't say we were recruiting people?" Qu Xingchi was puzzled.
"How could this happen?" Gao Xing had an expression of disbelief on his face.
"Let me tell you, you have to tell Captain Lin to hurry up. Opportunities wait for no one. The competition on the power rankings is so fierce now. If Captain Lin is slow to act, he may not even be able to find a first-level power user in the future! "
"Aren't you only at level one?"
"I will reach the second level soon. As long as I have a second level potion, I can upgrade immediately on the spot!" Gao Xing said confidently.
Good guy, I wouldn’t believe it if you said you weren’t here to take potion.
Qu Xingchi quickly waved his hand and refused: "I'm sorry, our team doesn't accept anyone."
"You look down on me?"
Gao Xing's face sank. He had spent a lot of money to find out about the Qingmang team, just so he could be the first to sign up and occupy the team spot in advance.
He never thought that the other party would refuse. After all, the benefits of competing for the list are obvious to all.
The other teams are almost fighting to get one more team member, and even the captains who are not short of money have gone to the slave market to buy slaves to serve as team members.
"Brother, our team really isn't hiring, so it's useless for you to ask me!"
"I don't believe it. All the teams are recruiting people now. How could you not recruit people? I don't ask you to accept me now, just sign me up in advance with Captain Lin."
As he said this, he was going to give Qu Xingchi a crystal core.
Looking at the extra things in his hand, Qu Xingchi quickly pushed them back.
"I'm not lying to you, we really don't accept people, you should go find other teams!"
After Qu Xingchi said that, he ran away. He even used his superpowers to avoid being caught up by the other party.
As soon as he returned to his residence, Qu Xingchi quickly closed the door and started yelling at Lin Qingqing in the living room.
"Captain, I actually met someone with superpowers outside today who wanted to join our team..."
When he was about to tell Lin Qingqing what happened just now, he found two strangers standing in the living room.
"who are they?"
"The superpowers who come here because of their fame and want to join our team," Yin Yaxiu said while holding a pipe in her mouth.
"..."
what is it today? When did their Qingmang team become so famous?
Qu Xingchi asked with his eyes.
how could I know! Yin Yaxiu spread her hands helplessly. These two people were already the second batch of visitors today, and without exception they all asked to join the team.
"We have no plans to recruit anyone at the moment."
In the living room, Lin Qingqing crossed her legs and had no intention of chatting with anyone.
"Could it be that Captain Lin looks down on my two brothers?"
The older of the two brothers clenched his fists and said, "Both of us are level two superpowers. We can kill level two zombies alone. If Captain Lin has any other requests, just ask."
"I told you I'm not hiring anyone!"
"This is impossible. You bought a second-level slave two days ago. Is it because this pretty boy has a good-looking face?"
The named "boy" Cheng Xiaohe was reading a book aside. Hearing them mention him, he couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Although he knew the real reason why Lin Qingqing bought him, he would not say it and could not say it. After all, he was still in the evaluation period.
"That's right, Captain Lin, since you've already bought slaves, why can't you take us in?" The younger brother was also a little unconvinced. Besides, the two of them look so good.
Not too bad.
"For the last time, I have no intention of recruiting anyone, Cheng Xiaohe! Send them out!"
Lin Qingqing had no time to argue with these people. She had no intention of explaining. After waving Cheng Xiaohe to see the guests off, she turned around and went upstairs.
Seeing the angry looks on the two brothers' faces, Cheng Xiaohe helplessly put down the book in his hand.
Now that Captain Lin has named everyone, he can only stand up and take this target to the end.
"I'm sorry, you two. Although I don't know where you got the information from, our captain Lin did not say that we were recruiting people. Please come back!" Cheng Xiaohe said, extending his hand in a gesture of invitation. .
"Baby face, how did you impress Captain Lin?" The elder brother was still a little unwilling.
"Maybe it's because I'm pale?" Cheng Xiaohe pointed at his face and said with a smile.
"you......"
"Bah! It's so shameless. He's just a guy who sells his position. Brother, let's go. It's okay if we don't come to this kind of team!"
The two brothers left angrily. Cheng Xiaohe touched his nose and looked back upstairs, sighing secretly in his heart.
It seems that in a few days, he will become famous at the Xiangcheng base for offending too many people.
However, in just a few days, the news that "Qingmang Team is at the Xiangcheng Base" spread like wings among the superpowers.
Many people came here because of the name, and they all wanted to join this elite team with full confidence, which also included a third-level water power user and a third-level speed power user.
But it is a pity that all these superpowers, regardless of their ability, have failed. Some of them have never even seen the face of captain Lin Qingqing.
As expected, Cheng Xiaohe became the only candidate to see off the guests, and was regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh without exception.
Contempt and suspicion are all trivial, and there are many who want to take action.
At first he was polite and apologized helplessly, but later he got tired of dealing with it and simply slapped back all those with bad attitudes. Anyway, he is a slave now. If anyone is not convinced, just go to his "master" directly.
Cheng Xiaohe had the mentality of breaking the pot, his face became thicker and thicker, and his tongue became more and more poisonous.
Every time he came back after seeing off his guests (and quarreling with others), he would turn around and see Lin Qingqing's half-smiling eyes, and he would have an illusion: Captain Lin must be unpredictable, so he bought someone to come back as a shield!
