Yan Binghui and Ying returned to the special ability headquarters to report on the completion of the mission. Coincidentally, Liu Shi happened to pass by and heard Yan Binghui say, "Gu Cheng is not doing better missions, it's such a waste to accept the base missions."

"What do you think Gu Cheng is doing now?"

Only now did Yan Binghui notice that his chief was present, and he hurriedly saluted. Although he was puzzled as to why his chief was concerned about this, he still replied honestly, "I met Gu Cheng and the others when I was returning in the afternoon. They said that they had accepted the base's mission."

"What base mission?" "How difficult is it?"

Gu Cheng's group had accepted a three star mission. It wasn't considered difficult, and the final mission they completed was pretty good. However, the 'normal' difficulty and the number of zombies that died made him feel that this was a bit unusual.

The first was Gu Cheng's space. Ever since their first meeting, Liu Shi had been especially attentive towards Gu Cheng. He had specially taken care of his old subordinates and helped them pay more attention to their movements. He and Lin Xin had not gone through even a single Base Quest in the temporary base of New Dawn. Xu Dazhang had even asked him in a telegram just what kind of background this Gu Cheng had. He had not seen him fretting over food for over a year. It was only until the special forces who had consumed the crystal cores had seen the appearance of a spatial ability that they were able to figure out that Gu Cheng was probably also a spatial ability user.

If someone who never accepted any missions suddenly accepted any missions, they would definitely become a demon. Could it be that he didn't have enough space food in his inventory? Even though he had beaten Liu Shi to death, he had not expected that Gu Cheng's Spatial Realm had not run out of stock, but rather vanished.

Second, was Gu Cheng's strength. He had seen Gu Cheng's martial prowess before. At that time, he alone could easily deal with thousands of zombies, not to mention the time he had taken to break out of the encirclement of the mutated bats. His strength was far more than this. Did he specially accompany those two families to practice? As far as he could remember, Gu Cheng didn't seem like someone who would do such a thing.

No matter what, this matter was very suspicious. Liu Shi thought that maybe he could try bargaining with him from this point. He was determined to get those crystals. If he could get them at the lowest price, then he was willing to give it a try.

However, thinking of Gu Cheng's bad temper, it was likely that Gu Cheng wouldn't be able to get him. Liu Shi called over his aide-de-camp to make some arrangements, intending to head over to Gu Cheng's residence tomorrow and have a good talk with him again.

Yan Binghui and Ying Jing were not clear about the inside story, not to mention the simple-minded Yan Binghui. This time even the Military Advisor Ying Jing did not understand the intention behind his question. However, upon hearing the chief's question, he was able to figure out a few things and noticed the number. After winking at Yan Binghui, the two of them brought their team members who were good at tracking and analysis of traces out and drove to the location of the mission — the running track at the outskirts of the city.

After some investigation, he was shocked to discover that Gu Cheng had taken care of twenty-three zombies this time, all of which had been accomplished with a single blunt saber. They were completely useless to him. This result was already rather shocking for ordinary people. However, they had all personally witnessed Gu Cheng's strength before, and definitely would not have been able to kill him with just this little amount. And judging by the flurried footprints they had made, it was not a tutorial, and once or twice they were even in danger.

"Captain, this …?" Should I report this to the head? " a team member said hesitantly as he made his conclusion.

"Did the chief tell you to check? "You didn't let me report anything. Remember what happened today. You're not allowed to speak a single word about it. I've done what I've told you." Yan Binghui looked at Ying Jing, who gave him an approving look. It was best to keep this matter of Gu Cheng's superpower a secret first. No matter what, he had still saved their lives.

Yan Binghui's unintentional words caused so many lawsuits, Ying Jing was also caught off guard. He thought of Lin Xin's bright and beautiful face. He didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse to have such a face in the apocalypse. He leaned over and whispered a few words into Old Yan's ear. The two of them decided to go with their leader to the Gu household tomorrow to take a look at the situation.

Thus, early the next morning, just as Gu Cheng and Lin Xin were preparing to eat dinner, Liu Shi knocked on their third floor's door with a string of tails.

Facing Gu Cheng's cold face, the group of people squeezed through the gap between the doors, their first reaction exaggerated as they snorted in praise, "So fragrant."

Everyone's eyes immediately focused on the steaming hot food. Stir-Fried eggs with ham and sausages, shredded potatoes with spicy sauce, Stir-Fried Leaf Vegetables … This was a very common breakfast, and it made everyone, who had clearly just eaten breakfast, gulp down their saliva. Immediately, they felt hungry again.

Lin Xin saw their expressions and hurriedly called for a few people to sit down. Just as she was eating with Gu Cheng, she glanced at Gu Cheng with a headache, temporarily ordering a bowl of porridge for everyone. After the porridge ran out, she could only have Gu Cheng go downstairs and change a few bags of instant noodles.

Even Liu Shi, the leader of the group, hadn't eaten fresh vegetables in a long time. At first, everyone carried a little bit of gentleness, but soon the chopsticks stopped moving. In less than two minutes, the several dishes were all swept clean. Lin Xin was still holding a half bowl of porridge, raising her chopsticks and realized that there was no more place for her to put the chopsticks.

Liu Shi rarely blushed. Coincidentally, at this time, Gu Cheng served another dish of vegetables. He forgot what he had come here for, and threw his chopsticks into the food fighting army. Lin Xin had finally finished eating under Gu Cheng's special cooking pot. The moment she stopped, Gu Cheng also stopped serving the meal. Liu Shi pitifully licked his chopsticks, finally realizing that he was here for business.

I'm sorry to bother you so early in the morning, but I came to ask you about the batch of crystal cores. Little Gu, the conditions you gave me were a bit too high, and we're already old friends. Can we discuss and see if we can give you some water purifying abilities in the Wasteland? A crystal core of 1: 2 is a little difficult to exchange with me, plus the zombies near the base already have a third stage crystal core, if it was a third stage crystal core, 2: 1, two first stage crystal cores for a third stage crystal core, what do you think? "

Gu Cheng was in his apron, squatting and washing the dishes, totally oblivious to what he had just said. At this time, Lin Xin washed a few apples. Even if there were more people, she wouldn't give up on each of them. She cut a plate and just carried it up to the table, then saw the bottom. These people really could eat too much. She had never been to the black market in Beijing before, so she had no idea how the fruits were currently scarce or if she had been protected too well by Gu Cheng. As for Gu Cheng, he was already used to her doing whatever she wanted to do. Seeing Lin Xin wash the apples and slice them into pieces, he felt no heartache at all in stopping her. No matter how valuable it was, it was not as important as her coming here happily.

When Liu Shi saw this plate of apples, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he turned to look at Gu Cheng, who had no reaction at all to his suggestion, thinking to himself, could he be wrong? His space was still there. He only accepted the base's mission on a whim? When he came back to his senses and went to get apples to eat, there was only a bare plate left.

This bunch of bastards, didn't they see that their leader still hadn't made his move? He glared at his aide-de-camp and Yan Binghui. Don't think that he didn't see them earlier. They were the ones who robbed breakfast the fastest.

This Gu Cheng had finally finished washing the dishes, his hand holding a white towel as if he were doing something important for a country. His face was solemn as he made sure that not a single drop of water was left on the plate before placing it back into the cupboard.

Liu Shi: "..."

Yan Binghui:

The heroic image that Gu Cheng had carved in their hearts earlier, from the apron to the dishes being wiped clean, finally crumbled to the point of no return.

Only the Ying Sutra had understood what kind of person Gu Cheng was from the very beginning. He only cared about Lin Xin. However, this morning's scene had deeply touched him. He felt that it was impossible for him to spoil a girl to this extent.

This matter was not necessarily a bad thing for Gu Cheng and Lin Xin, so he said in a deep voice, "I have a few words that I wish to discuss privately with you, Brother Gu. This is related to the matter with the Lin Family last time."

He had made the right bet. Gu Cheng, who had been indifferent all this time, looked over at him, his eyes flashing with hesitation.

After a moment, he said, "Okay."
