Chapter 426
Tu Long coldly snorted, “Who said so? Li Yuefeng’s superpower may be impervious to physical attacks, but he is just as afraid of fire damage p>
“Back when he fought Tian Wei, he was almost burned alive. If it weren’t for the nearby waterfall, he would’ve been dead p>
“Am I going to be afraid with a barrel of petrol by my side p>
Hong Fu smiled wryly, “If we don’t have a sure win, let’s not risk it. Our biggest enemy right now isn’t the other camps; it’s the tidal wave coming next week p>
“Don’t forget, the mutated creatures from the floods get fiercer every time. We might not be able to handle it when they come ashore next time p>
Talking about the tidal wave, even the arrogant Tu Long had his expression change slightly.
“How’s the shelter’s cave digging going p>
“My men are working tirelessly,” Hong Fu responded.
“They’re digging upwards, right? Make sure they don’t mess up. If they dig downwards and the floodwaters keep rising, this base will be done for p>
“Don’t worry, I’m supervising it p>
Tu Long nodded, then quickly changed the topic back to the food issue.
He asked, “So, Director Hong, do you have any good ideas regarding food p>
Hong Fu thought for a moment and said, “Let’s approach it in two ways. First, we need to quickly train our own plant-related superpower users. Second, see if we can trade with the other three camps for food p>
Tu Long squinted, “Training superpower users, huh? Fine, tomorrow I’ll personally organize a hunting team and take them to the forest to try their luck p>
“Make sure to supervise this time. Don’t get them all killed; we need manpower for the base as well p>
“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing,” Tu Long waved it off.
The two continued chatting for a bit, when suddenly they heard urgent footsteps outside.
Followed by the sound of commotion down the mountain.
Tu Long frowned and shouted, “Old Zhu, what’s going on out there p>
Just as he finished speaking, two people burst in.
One of them was short and fat, with his pants zipper still undone. He shouted, “Boss Tu, something’s happened! Something’s happened outside p>
The other person looked panicked and disheveled. As soon as he saw Tu Long, he dropped to his knees and cried out, “Brother Long, Brother Long, it’s bad! A lot of people are coming up the mountain, and they’ve started fighting with the patrol team p>
“There’s a very powerful superpower user among them. Song Yi and the others can’t hold them off. They’re about to break through p>
Bang!
Tu Long jumped up, smashing a glass in his hand, and roared, “What did you say? Say it again p>
“Brother Long, outsiders are coming up the mountain! They’re coming to kill us p>
Tu Long couldn’t help but curse, “Damn it, Song Yi and his useless bunch! They can’t even handle this p>
“Old Zhu, go call everyone. Wake up all the superpower users p>
“Damn it, let’s see who has the guts to mess with my place p>
Tu Long roared, instinctively using a phrase he often said back when he ran a bar.
He immediately got up, and Hong Fu also stood up.
He looked just as serious and asked the informant, “Where are the enemies now p>
“They’re still down the mountain,” the informant hurriedly replied.
“Do you know how many people they have?” Hong Fu asked again.
The informant shook his head, “It was dark then. We just saw three rafts. Conservatively, there should be about a hundred people p>
“At first, our rain of arrows scared them away p>
“But we taunted them a bit, and one of the superpower users on the raft got angry and led several others to charge up the mountain p>
“Song Yi led everyone to counterattack, but those guys were too strong. They killed a dozen people in just one exchange p>
“What type of superpower user is the leader p>
“The leader seems to be a strength-type. He’s very strong and can smash heads with a single blow p>
“When I was escaping to report, I saw Brother Yi being crushed to death by that guy p>
Hong Fu was stunned, “Only a strength-type superpower user p>
Tu Long also paused, looking back at the informant, “What the hell are you saying? Just a strength-type superpower user defeated you all p>
“No, he’s really strong! It’s not just him. There are several other powerful superpower users with him p>
Tu Long cursed again and didn’t want to ask more. He walked out of the Phoenix Temple to look down the mountain.
Even with the vegetation cover, he could still see bright fires creating a long line down the mountain path.
With a rough glance, it seemed there were almost two hundred torches.
He turned angrily and scolded, “This is your estimate of about a hundred people? How did you count them p>
Hong Fu also looked solemn. Around two hundred people, compared to their own manpower, was only a bit less than a hundred or so.
But such a large group was definitely a formidable force. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn.net
Hong Fu said gravely, “This is like a fierce dragon crossing a river. Where did such a large group come from p>
Tu Long sneered, “Whether it’s a dragon or a worm, we’ll find out after we fight p>
Hong Fu couldn’t help but advise, “Tu Long, if we can avoid fighting, let’s avoid it. If we end up in a mutual defeat, the other three camps might take advantage of it p>
Tu Long frowned upon hearing this, sharing the same concern.
Hong Fu urged, “Don’t forget, Wu Meng and his people have always coveted our Blast Rune making method p>
This made Tu Long readjust his fighting spirit and he asked, “Director Hong, what’s your idea on how to handle this p>
“First of all, our camp is barely big enough for us, let alone a bunch like that p>
