Chapter 530: A New Favorable Turn

Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave

Upon hearing the female guard's words, Tang Cangyun was stunned, but he snapped out of his dazed state, and a gloating expression appeared on his face.

"It seems that Captain Jiang, the one you've been praising all this time, has kicked a hornet's nest," said Tang Cangyun to Wei Feifei and Peach. At the same time, he wondered how Jiang Liushi had dear to make such bold demands before a General from the Huaxia Region. He believed that even if Jiang Liushi joined the Assault Team, Han Yuan would put his name in a blacklist.

"Captain Jiang…" Peach began to worry.

"Whether I have the qualifications or not is none of your business." Jiang Liushi just shook his head and stared at that female guard coldly.

Jiang Liushi had Starseed by his side, and they could absorb the Black Light flowing in the mutant beasts' blood. But Han Yuan and everyone else didn't know how to kill those mutant beasts effectively as he did. If they wanted to kill them, they'd have to pay a heavy price. As a result, Jiang Liushi thought that his proposal was quite reasonable as both sides would benefit. Unfortunately, Han Yuan and his subordinates looked down on survivors too much.

"He is really young and frivolous. He has already offended General Han so his future will be very miserable. General Han comes from the Huaxia Region and he is a mighty paranormal that can lead several teams. How bold and arrogant can Jiang Liushi be to offend such an influential figure?" said Tang Cangyun in a strange tone. "

Then, he added, "General Han can drive them out with a snap of his finger."

"What does that have to do with you?" Wei Feifei stared at Tang Cangyun angrily.

"Oh, you think I'm wrong?" Tang Cangyun said with a smile.

At that moment, a tank arrived at the Headquarters, and a man jumped from it.

"Uh? That person is Luo Qiusheng, the Battalion Commander under General Zhang Tianyu." Tang Cangyun blinked as he recognized the newcomer.

The first thing Tang Cangyun had done after coming to the Safety Zone was to inquire about all the influential military figures. He knew who held real power and who didn't. In the future, the deaths and lives of hundreds of thousands of people in the Safety Zone would rely on how they performed. It was the power in their hands that had blocked countless zombies and mutant beasts, enabling them to build the high walls around the Safety Zone.

Tang Cangyun knew that General Zhang was first stationed in the Shenhai Island, and after its fall, he had been sent to the Jiangming Safety Zone. Although he had lots of subordinates, General Zhang's foundation was too shallow. In the Jiangming Safety Zone, the true shot-callers were still Commander Luo and Commander Huang. Even Han Yuan couldn't be compared with them.

Of course, Tang Cangyun's objective was quite clear. For the first step, he needed to catch Han Yuan's attention. Then, step by step he would ascend in the ranks and become an important figure.

Luo Qiusheng saluted. "General Han!"

"Captain Jiang, I'm General Zhang's guard. Although this is the first time we meet, I've heard a lot of things about you from General Zhang. You have my admiration," said Luo Qiusheng.

Tang Cangyun was stunned once again. He didn't expect that Luo Qiusheng would express his admiration for Jiang Liushi.

When Luo Qiusheng appeared, the tense atmosphere was alleviated a little and Peach heaved a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, Captain Jiang is familiar with another general, which means that he won't be driven out," said Peach while staring at Tang Cangyun angrily. She was really worried about Jiang Liushi.

"Haha…" Tang Cangyun said, "Oh, silly Peach, do you think a new favorable turn occurred? You are completely wrong. General Zhang is inferior to General Han. After all, General Han comes from the Huaxia Region," said Tang Cangyun with a smile.

"Eh?" Peach was worried again as she was unaware about such matters.

"General Han, it seems that you want to rope in Captain Jiang?" asked Luo Qiusheng as it was the first thought it came to his mind.

"It's a pity that we don't share the same ideas," replied Han Yuan after glancing at Jiang Liushi.

"Oh? It's indeed a pity!" said Luo Qiusheng.

Then, Luo Qiusheng smiled and asked, "Captain Jiang, I'd like to invite you to meet Commander Luo. Are you willing? Commander Luo would like to cooperate with you. He has also heard lots of stories about you and your minibus from General Zhang."

The female guard frowned as it came as a surprise to her for Luo Qiusheng to have come on behalf of Commander Luo. She had just tried to reprimand Jiang Liushi, but someone had come to ask for his cooperation. Moreover, that someone was not General Zhang, but Commander Luo.

Tang Cangyuan was dumbstruck and almost wanted to slap himself. Why did he have to open his big mouth earlier? While he was cursing, Wei Feifei and Peach were pleased.

"Wow! Captain Jiang is indeed powerful. Assisting Commander Luo is quite better than joining the Assault Team," said Peach happily.

Tang Cangyun felt sad as what Peach said was true. Initially, he believed that Jiang Liushi would be kicked out of the Safety Zone, but he was wrong. Now, the two girls would fly out of his grasp. He hated that he didn't know how to stop this development. Once Jiang Liushi agreed to cooperate with Commander Luo, the latter's whole faction would support him. How could Tang Cangyun compete with Jiang Liushi after that?

"Thank you for your kind words and invitation. But please help me tell Commander Luo that I no longer wish to cooperate with the military," said Jiang Liushi calmly.

Han Yuan's attitude made Jiang Liushi realize that he didn't need anyone's assistance to accomplish his goals. At the same time, he would come in conflict with the military's interests when facing the Black Hole. They needed it for research purposes, while he needed to absorb the accumulated energy in it.

Luo Qiusheng was stunned. "That…"

'He refused?' That female guard was also surprised. Even Han Yuan, who was always indifferent, suddenly revealed an expression of surprise. As for Tang Cangyun, he was elated. 'Excellent, a new favorable turn!'

"He's too stupid! He must feel that cooperating with Commander Luo after the refusal is worse. If he agreed, he'd lose his face. However, one's face is worthless in such a situation." Tang Cangyun shook his head. Before he could continue commenting, Jiang Liushi spoke.

"My team and I are enough to deal with the threat outside and fend off for ourselves," said Jiang Liushi.
