Chapter 66 【o(*￣︶￣*)o】PART 1

 

Qin Jiulin’s eye twitched, “You… you shouldn’t speak like that, it’s creepy.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan also felt that he had been a bit off just now, clearing his throat, “Okay, okay, I understand. Can you speak now?”

 

He had just been joking around earlier, and the effect was quite good. Qin Jiulin’s gloomy expression had now eased significantly, so his sacrifice was still valuable.

 

Qin Jiulin, “…Actually, what else can he say that’s new? You can guess it easily, it’s just that he doesn’t believe our relationship, and thinks we’re just pretending to deceive him.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan, “I knew it, he won’t give up so easily, but you’re my person, I won’t give him a chance. If I was a bit uneasy before, but now that you’ve agreed, I have the right to do some fun things.”

 

Qin Jiulin had an ominous premonition, not for himself, but for xia liangsheng. Being targeted by someone like Liu Zhongyuan, xia liangsheng might not be able to sleep well in the end.

 

“Do whatever you want, but be sure to maintain a certain degree. After all, now is the time to use people, Captain Gao values the variant beastmen very much. If you want to go all out, wait until we have the entire Mo City, otherwise, going all out now might end up in conflict with Captain Gao.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan was very satisfied in his heart. He didn’t expect Qin Jiulin to actually allow him to go all out. Since that’s the case, he wouldn’t hold back, “I know, I understand. Don’t worry, I’m not the kind of person without any sense of propriety. When the time is right, I definitely won’t show any mercy.”

 

Qin Jiulin, “Let’s go, first go do the mission. Let me take a look at the mission location that Captain Gao sent before.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan, “No need to look, it’s there. We’ll just go directly, because these places are all very clean. We’ve been coming out to hunt the half beastmen following the scent every few days.”

 

Qin Jiulin, “Speaking of which, there are no animals around Mo City, all the animals seen are ordinary beasts.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan, “Of course, it’s because there are too many half beastmen here, the animals don’t dare to get close.”

 

Qin Jiulin, “When we really take over Mo City in the future, the half beastmen… will the animals swarm in then?”

 

Liu Zhongyuan, “Don’t worry, we’ll just kill as many as they come.”

 

Qin Jiulin thought about the Mo City in his previous life. After the military took full control, there were indeed certain problems in dealing with the endless stream of animals, but there were no major problems or major troubles.

 

He simply no longer paid attention to it, just went with the flow and dealt with it when the time came.

 

Qin Jiulin stood on the rooftop looking at the area in front, “Is this the area? From here to there?”

 

Liu Zhongyuan, “That’s right, this is the area. Isn’t it especially clean? There aren’t many half beastmen, just a few scattered ones, not enough to fill our mouths.”

 

Qin Jiulin, “I’ll go take care of it then.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan, “Okay.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan’s beast form was indeed very ferocious and useful, but in the city, the destruction caused would be very large. So in general, if Qin Jiulin himself could quickly resolve a small task, Liu Zhongyuan was usually not allowed by Qin Jiulin to take on the mission in beast form.

 

Liu Zhongyuan just stood on the rooftop watching as Qin Jiulin transformed into a giant tiger, rushing back and forth on the street in front. Sometimes biting a half beastman to death, sometimes using his claws to swipe and kill two at another street.

 

He then continued searching back and forth in this entire area, going in and out of many buildings, keeping busy for more than an hour before returning.

 

“All done.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan then waved to the soldiers waiting behind, asking them to come to the front position and set up barriers. He carefully double-checked to confirm that there were no surviving half beastmen left, before notifying the people responsible for the cleanup to come over.

 

Standing on the rooftop, Qin Jiulin and Liu Zhongyuan immediately spotted two familiar faces mixed in the crowd. Liu Zhongyuan said with some uncertainty, “It’s Qi Yue’s…”

 

Qin Jiulin, “It’s the two people who almost got Qi Yue killed, I think they’re called Duan Qiufeng and the other one is his blood-related sister, Qi Jinglan.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan carefully looked them over and said, “This Qi Jinglan is indeed quite good-looking, no wonder she could seduce other men.”

 

Qin Jiulin, “Have you forgotten? Duan Qiufeng seemed to have been with Qi Jinglan even before he got together with Qi Yue. This Duan Qiufeng is not a good person, and Qi Jinglan is not a good person either.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan, “Didn’t Qi Jinglan act all innocent in front of Qi Yue before?”

 

Qin Jiulin, “What, you want to do something to them here?”

 

Liu Zhongyuan shook his head, “How can we do anything here now? We’re just responsible for the initial security of this area, can’t have any small tricks here.”

 

Qin Jiulin didn’t really believe his words, but he knew that Liu Zhongyuan was always very measured in his actions, so he didn’t try to stop him, just wait and see what happens later.

 

Duan Qiufeng and Qi Jinglan were working together, first of course cleaning up the messy and disgusting remnants of the half beastmen on the ground, including the one just crushed by Qin Jiulin’s punch.

 

Duan Qiufeng was even using a shovel to scoop up the crushed meat. He could clearly see Qi Jinglan retching on the side, and his own complexion didn’t look good either.

 

After all, this scene was really disgusting. Qin Jiulin chuckled, “I wonder how long it will take them to get used to this kind of work.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan, “Maybe they’re short on supplies, so they have to come out and do this. Those with variant beastmen to take care of won’t come here to do this kind of work. Although they were brought here by Wang Boming and Lin Yutian, their lives still have to be taken care of by themselves, especially after coming to live here.”

 

Previously, when they were in the military camp, since the others were useless, they had no choice but to let them eat and drink for free. But now it’s different – now that they’re in the city, aside from the basic safety and housing, everything else needs to be earned!

 

It’s estimated that in a little while, they’ll even have to pay for water and electricity. Once the military officially takes over the entire metropolis, they might even start charging rent, unless they’re willing to live in the most basic and crowded little houses.

 

Qin Jiulin looked at the two of them, Duan Qiufeng, for a while before shifting his gaze. “Hmm?”

 

Liu Zhongyuan turned around and said, “Qi Yue is here.”

 

Qi Yue transformed into a snowy owl and flew over, then shifted back into human form and put on his clothes. “Brother Qin, Brother Liu? What are you two still doing here? Let’s go eat first, shall we?”

 

Qin Jiulin gestured below, and Qi Yue curiously went over to look, only to see the two familiar faces. He twitched an eye. “Ah!”

 

Qi Yue: “This…”

 

Qin Jiulin: “What’s wrong? Can’t face it?”

 

Qi Yue blinked. “No, it’s just that I find it quite amusing. Let me take another look.”

 

Qin Jiulin and Liu Zhongyuan exchanged a glance. “Does it look good?”

 

Qi Yue: “It looks good. If this had been in the past, Qi Jinglan wouldn’t just stop at handling corpses – even if he saw someone holding a funeral from a distance, he would walk far away, acting very afraid.”

 

Qin Jiulin: “Is that so? But there’s no helping it, the reality is cruel. If you don’t work, you don’t eat, and there’s no resources to take.”

 

Qi Yue: “Although it’s quite amusing, staring at it for too long gets boring. Brother Qin, shall we go eat?”

 

Qin Jiulin: “Let’s go. Go wash up first, then we’ll take a shower.”

 

Qi Yue and Qin Jiulin had tasks to attend to, but Liu Zhongyuan was the only one who didn’t participate today. He could only accompany the other two to wash up and change clothes, while he himself sat in the living room.

 

Liu Zhongyuan leaned on one hand. “Ah… how exactly are we going to handle this?”

 

Qin Jiulin had just come out and heard him muttering to himself. As he tidied up the clothes he had just put on, he ran his fingers through his still damp hair. “What’s wrong? What do you mean ‘how to handle this’?”

 

Liu Zhongyuan shook his head. “It’s nothing much, let’s go.”

 

Qin Jiulin was tugged by the wrist as Liu Zhongyuan dragged him out, and he didn’t resist. When they left, they had even forgotten about Qi Yue, who was still showering in the room.

 

It was only when they reached the entrance of the cafeteria that they realized someone was missing.

 

Liu Zhongyuan: “Oh, it’s fine. Qi Yue is not a child anymore, it’s not like he can get lost, right? He can come on his own.”

 

Qin Jiulin: “…That’s true.”

 

Sure enough, after they prepared some food in their usual spot, Qi Yue showed up at the cafeteria entrance, spotted them, and walked over.

 

“Wow, the food’s all ready, can we start eating now?”

 

Qin Jiulin: “Eat up.”

 

It seems Qi Yue didn’t realize that the two of them had forgotten about him, and thought they had come early to prepare the meal.

 

That’s exactly what Qi Yue thought, because he never even considered the possibility that the two had forgotten about him.

 

This minor incident passed just like that, not really an important matter.

 

Time flew by, and in less than half a month, Gao Siyang found Liu Zhongyuan and the others again.

 

Qin Jiulin glanced at the time – it was a little past 3 pm, and the blood bag task for today was already completed, so he must have called them over for that previous task.

 

Liu Zhongyuan’s expression was somewhat solemn. “Can’t delay it any longer, huh?”

 

Gao Siyang’s expression was also somewhat troubled. “Indeed, it can’t be delayed any further. Zhongyuan, this task is truly only suitable for you. Qi Yue can temporarily not participate in the blood bag missions, but this time…”

 

Liu Zhongyuan: “But with just the three of us, it’s really not enough. The military base…”

 

Gao Siyang: “Don’t worry, this time I’ll have two variant beastman soldiers from the military accompany you.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan: “Oh? The military only has a total of five variant beastmen, you’ve hidden them well. Until now, we didn’t know who they are or what their beast forms are, and now you’re suddenly sending two to me?”

 

Gao Siyang nodded. “I have no choice. You must use these two well, but also protect them well, because variant beastmen are truly too few.”

 

“By the way, their identities need to be kept confidential, no problem with that, right? After the mission is completed, confidentiality also needs to be maintained.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan: “Don’t worry, we’re not big mouths. We know what can be said and what can’t.”

 

Gao Siyang: “In that case, discuss among yourselves when to go. They know the exact location of the military base and can take you there. 

 

They are also familiar with the layout of the military base, so they can accurately locate the place where the weapons are stored. There’s no way I can send you any reinforcements from this end, so I hope you can bring the weapons back.”

 

Liu Zhongyuan had a complicated expression. “So this task is specifically assigned to me because I’m the biggest, and can help transport the weapons, is that it?”

 

Gao Siyang coughed a couple times. “What are you saying? It’s because you’re currently the strongest variant beastman here, that’s why I’m assigning you. Of course… there’s also the reason you mentioned, but strength is the most crucial factor.”

 

After all, the half beastman at the military base are far beyond what the ones in the metropolis can compare to.

 

Liu Zhongyuan: “In that case, let’s depart tonight. At least you didn’t assign Xia Liangsheng’s team to me, or else I’d be directly confronting you.”
