On this day, Jiang Ming was fishing in the office as usual.
Ever since he was able to collect twenty illustrations at any time, Jiang Ming suddenly felt as if he had lost his motivation in life. He had nothing to do all day long and didn't even want to earn reputation points.
Now what he is thinking about every day is not knowing what kind of legendary elf can be randomly produced this time. After all, according to the rules introduced by the system, the legendary elf obtained by collecting twenty illustrations should not be the three holy beasts and three gods. Birds and other mythical beasts.
And the most important thing is that the legendary elves he obtained through the system seem to be the kind that really have clergy. If such a powerful existence rashly brings them to this world, he doesn't know whether it is good or bad.
"Ah--it's so annoying!"
Jiang Ming pulled his hair back hard and felt bad all over.
You said that people are like this. When they didn’t have it at first, their minds were thinking about how to get it, but once they had it, they suddenly started to get confused inexplicably.
Just when he was extremely confused, assistant Xiao Wang suddenly knocked on the door and came in saying that Liu Haoyun was here.
"Brother Liu, why is he here? Could it be..."
Jiang Ming suddenly remembered the request he had mentioned to Liu Haoyun before, and hurried to the reception room.
As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Ming saw Liu Haoyun sitting and drinking tea with a straight face and a large freezer at his feet.
"Brother Liu is here."
Jiang Ming smiled and sat next to Liu Haoyun, glancing at the storage box.
"What are you looking at?" Liu Haoyun suddenly asked, "What, this thing is better-looking than your Brother Liu?"
"hey-hey…"
Jiang Ming said nothing, just smiled.
"Okay, okay." Liu Haoyun waved his hand nonchalantly, "You're lucky, you happened to run into a group of demon-toothed rats at the end of this cleanup mission. It's our team's own gain, otherwise I won't use the public goods. I can’t give it to you either.”
With that said, Liu Haoyun opened the preservation box, and a lifelike corpse of a devil-tooth rat lay quietly inside.
"Thank you, Brother Liu!" Jiang Ming opened the system light curtain while recalling the information about the Demon Fang Rat, but found that there was still no time-limited mission.
"By the way, Brother Liu, I remember that Demon Tooth Rats are quite timid. How come they dare to come out and jump around after finally escaping your suppression?" Jiang Ming asked casually.
"Hey, this has something to do with you, Xiao Ming."
Then Liu Haoyun told Jiang Ming roughly how several children were rescued after fighting with a group of demon-toothed rats.
"...you said these little brats are so brave. How dare they go outside the city to go on so-called adventures? Thanks to Xiao Ming, those sun seeds you cultivated are powerful enough, otherwise they would have entered the Demon Fang long ago. It went into the rat’s belly.”
As he said this, Liu Haoyun couldn't help but have a hint of fear in his tone. These are all living things. Even though his hands have been stained with the blood of countless alien beasts and rebels, after all, this is a city. If his child really dies in front of his eyes, even if he has no responsibility, he will feel a little uncomfortable.
"yes…"
Jiang Ming also had lingering fears. Strictly speaking, the reason those children had the courage to go outside the city was because the strength of Xiangri Seed gave them courage.
As the saying goes, Zi did not kill Boren, but Boren died because of you. Jiang Ming will also feel uneasy when the time comes.
"By the way, Brother Liu, I remember that every place entering and exiting the city should be heavily guarded, right? How did these children get out?"
Jiang Ming asked curiously.
"This..." Liu Haoyun suddenly hesitated.
Jiang Ming saw this and said quickly: "It's okay, Brother Liu, if it's inconvenient, please don't tell me!"
As a family member of the city guard, Jiang Ming certainly knew that some things must be kept secret.
"Hey, it doesn't matter after all. I just want to remind you." Liu Haoyun slapped his thigh, put his head slightly closer to Jiang Ming, and said in a low voice: "The group of children found a road from the city to the outside of the city. Later we sent people to investigate the secret passage, and it should be related to the rebels."
"Rebels?"
After hearing this word, Jiang Ming's expression suddenly became serious: "Weren't the rebels near Binhai City cleaned up by my eldest brother and several deputy commanders a few years ago? And even if there are survivors, there will be no survivors. Don’t you dare to have any ideas in the city.”
Even if human civilization in this world has undergone such great changes, not everyone is still willing to unite to overcome the difficulties.
Those who have separated from civilized society for various reasons are uniformly named scavengers by all federal governments around the world.
As for the rebels, it is a collective name for some of the scavengers who have done harm to nature.
After all, the wilds of Blue Star are now almost completely occupied by alien beasts, so most of the scavengers are not doing well.
Naturally, some of them have evil intentions, such as robbing caravans or robbing cities!
The Donghuang Federation once had a record of small cities being captured by rebels.
However, although Binhai City is still a medium-sized city in name, because the commander of the city guard has reached the level of a transcendent, there are basically no rebels who would dare to attack here.
"That's true." Liu Haoyun continued, "But those crazy people in the rebels don't act according to common sense. Maybe they just want to take revenge."
"You must pay more attention to your own safety during this period of time, and you must not go to those nooks and crannies."
This is also the reason why Liu Haoyun chose to tell Jiang Ming about this matter. Although these things are still just speculations at the moment, you should be afraid of anything less than ten thousand.
Who knows if there is a group of desperadoes hiding somewhere in the city, just waiting for an exchange or something.
"By the way, Xiao Ming, there's no definite explanation on this matter yet. I'm just going to give you a hint this time. Don't talk about it outside, understand?" Liu Haoyun reminded.
Nowadays, even those children are temporarily protected secretly by the city guards in the name of psychological treatment, all in order to prevent the matter from spreading and alerting the public.
Hearing this, Jiang Ming repeatedly promised: "Brother Liu, don't worry, I know the severity."
"Um."
Liu Haoyun nodded with satisfaction, drank the cup of tea and left.
After Liu Haoyun left, Jiang Ming rushed to the laboratory without saying a word.
Now that things have involved the rebels, as Jiang Zheng's only younger brother, Jiang Ming felt that he had to quickly get something to save his life.
For example, the legendary elves rewarded by the system.
Although Jiang Ming knew that once the city guards confirmed the accuracy of the news, they would definitely send people over to protect him.
But it’s better to ask for others than to ask for yourself!
What's more, Jiang Ming has already figured it out. Now that he is the carrier of the system, he has to save his life even if it is to allow him to work better, right?
