Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space novel Chapter 552

Chapter 552: Leaving The Team

The members took several steps back while Su Ruanyi stood at the edge. Raising her hands, she used her energy to control the broken pieces of the road and used them to fix the bridge.

Standing behind her, one of the members clicked his tongue and said, "She just awakened her ability not long ago, but her control over it has already improved so much."

"I heard that she joined the ordinary people to fix the wall and always returned exhausted. I don’t know what she was thinking. Rather than fixing the wall, it’s better to do missions outside. We can earn more crystal cores," another member said, shaking his head.

When he heard this, Yuan Ruiyue glanced at them but said nothing. Out of these nine people, he only planned to keep two and let them join the Phantom Team. The rest would be handed over to Xun Che later.

After twenty minutes, Su Ruanyi wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Captain, it’s done."

Yuan Ruiyue walked over to check the result. Although it took her a while to repair the broken bridge, the outcome was not bad.

It seemed that letting her join the worker team had been worth it. Her energy pool had increased by at least twenty percent, and her control over her ability was much better than before.

Nodding, he said, "Well done."

Su Ruanyi was delighted to be praised by her Captain. Before the team departed, she quickly took out two flatbreads and a bottle of water from her backpack and handed them to Yuan Ruiyue.

"Captain, you haven’t eaten anything since last night. You should eat something," she said.

While he looked indifferent, it was only his facade as a spy. So when he met her gaze, he still accepted the food and water. "Thank you."

Seeing that he didn’t refuse, Su Ruanyi grinned and returned to her car happily.

As they drove toward Lin’an City, Pei Yijun and his team members were having a meeting at the Lin’an City Base. At this moment, they were sitting in the living room of the residence provided by the Base to host the guests.

Looking at his team members, Pei Yijun asked, "Have all of you made up your minds?"

One of the members nodded and replied, "Captain, I am thankful for your help all this time. I thought that the living conditions in Jiangning Base were the best I could provide for my family."

After a moment of pause, he continued, "But after I came here, I realized that the life here was what I wanted for my family. I will remember your kindness, and whenever you need my help, I won’t hesitate to help you."

The moment the members heard this, their eyes lit up. They never thought that the Captain would give them crystal cores. After all, they only gave ten percent of their earnings to the Team as a fee, so logically speaking, Pei Yijun didn’t have to give them anything.

While they were still feeling happy for receiving sudden income, Pei Yijun had already counted the crystal cores and divided them equally. He gave each of them fifty level-one crystal cores and said, "I wish all of you the best."

The members accepted the crystal cores and replied in unison, "Thank you, Captain!"

Since they had to go pick up their family members, they left afterward. When they were alone, Li Yang patted Pei Yijun’s shoulder and said, "Brother Pei, it’s alright. We can recruit more people later."

Hearing this, Pei Yijun smiled and said, "It’s not easy to recruit ability-users."

Chu Zhimiao hesitated for a moment before she said, "Brother Pei, there is no regulation that a mercenary team needs at least five members in our Base. Since that’s the case, we can just take our time recruiting."

"I think that rather than depend on numbers, it’s better to get strong members instead. I gathered some information about the mercenary teams in this Base. While the number of members was not high, each of them was strong. Even with only seven people, a D-rank Team was able to complete a B-rank mission."

"Brother Pei, I also saw that a lot of ability-users were looking for a Team so they could take missions issued by the Base. How about we try recruiting them?" Li Yang suddenly asked.
