Rumbling!
A mutant with its brain smashed out rolled down helplessly from a pile of corpses over ten meters high, no longer daring to rush up to meet its demise.
A hundred meters away, a six-legged mutant boss was burned into bald charcoal, the air filled with the enticing aroma of meat, and the flames even spread to many other mutants' remains.
From a bird's-eye view, the chaotic 130 Aircrew Base was broadly charred, indistinguishable from a real battlefield—in fact, this was a real battlefield!
Inside the 131 Aircrew Base, all who saw this scene fell deathly silent.
The first light of dawn broke the horizon, casting a golden glow on the figure standing atop the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood.
Chen Fei stood above, looking down at the dozen or so ferocious monsters still howling ceaselessly, his hand's Physics Holy Sword still unwavering, while blood incessantly dripped from the blood-drenched tip of his white steel crowbar.
The ground had long been stained red with a large swath of blood, accumulating into pools.
On the screen, there was the silhouette akin to a war god from an epic blockbuster, leaving Zuo Gengming in the depths of his throat with nothing but sharp intakes of breath.
A man and an inconsequential Pure Light Sparrow fought through the dawn, taking back the 130 Aircrew Base, which had been overrun for more than half a month, from the hands of the mutants.
As for the remaining dozen or so mutants, not just Zuo Gengming, even the people at 131 Aircrew Base didn't consider them a threat. Any "Big Mouth Monster" could easily exterminate these ignorant creatures.
From the time Chen Fei arrived at the 131 Aircrew Base in the North American Continent, less than 24 hours had passed.
Damn, that additional million Star Yuan was well spent!
Thinking back, Chen Fei was only one of the two supernatural power users from Jiu Defense Company, and the other one, known as "Eye of the Storm," the boss, hadn't even made a move yet!
This Jiu Defense Company... Truly formidable as hell!
If news of this vicious battle were to spread, Jiu Defense Company's Jianghu status would surely soar significantly.
"Jiu!"
The rested Little Bird once again flapped its wings and perched on Chen Fei's shoulder, glaring at the dozen or so mutants together.@@@@
The fear that slept deep within their primal instincts was finally awakened. The mutants surrounding the mountain of corpses shivered and recoiled, and without hesitation, they turned and fled, hoping to get as far away from the terrifying human as possible.
"None of you are getting away!"
Chen Fei leaped down from the mountain of corpses, chasing after one of the mutants.
The white steel crowbar in his hand transformed into a spear, casually thrown.
With a pitiful cry, the mutant was pinned to the ground.
Zuo Gengming immediately slapped his chest in assurance, then said, "We also have a thousand tons of scrap metal. When do you want it? It's just that..."
At home in the mines, there's more than a thousand tons of scrapped machinery. If someone wants it, better to take it quickly.
Seeing that the other party had become hesitant, Chen Fei cut to the chase, "It's too heavy and difficult to transport, isn't it?"
The other party's thought process was quite predictable.
The two aircrew bases were located in remote areas with high transport costs, especially for shipping a thousand tons of scrap metal, which really wasn't cost-effective. It would be better to save on the shipping cost and just get Chen Fei to the location. Not only would it save trouble and time, the end result would be no different.
"Hehe, indeed it is! However, the 130 and 131 Aircrew Bases already have some scrap metal, all of which will be yours, considered an extra giveaway."
True to a capitalist, Zuo Gengming wore an embarassed smile, his mind clearly ticking away.
In fact, the aircrew bases always struggled with how to properly dispose of scrap metal. To save space, they generally recycled and smelted rough ingots and piled them outside, leaving them to weather under sun and rain, with little opportunity for reuse.
"That works too!"
Chen Fei agreed. Find your next adventure on My Virtual Library Empire
"No problem, thank you so much!"
Zuo Gengming thanked him again. This was indeed a big help.
Rubbing his hands together, he continued, "Mr. Chen, I hope you can stay here a few more days. You can rest assured of your reception."
Chen Fei, present at the 130 Aircrew Base, was like a Sea-calming Needle, not only deterring the ferocious mutants but also providing a great sense of security and confidence for the personnel working here. Otherwise, not for anything would they dare come here for what would be a suicidal task.
Even if Zuo Gengming was willing to reward brave men handsomely, their numbers were often limited and nowhere near enough to secure the entire 130 Aircrew Base and restore normal operation.
"Then I'll stay for another seven days!"
Chen Fei had originally planned to return the same day, but Boss Hana suggested he stay a bit longer. There were unlikely to be any battles, and his presence was mainly to stabilize morale and create a sense of safety.
With someone more terrifying than the mutant bosses around, those outside mutants weren't concerning at all, and even sleeping at night could be much more reassuring.
"Great, that's really great!"
Overcome with emotion, Zuo Gengming's eyes reddened. Seven days were enough for him to stabilize the situation, and even if Chen Fei left afterward, it would still ensure the safety of both aircrew bases.
Unexpectedly to Chen Fei, just the alloy rough ingots accumulated over the years at the 130 Aircrew Base weighed nearly a thousand tons combined, nearly fulfilling Chen Fei's additional requirements from this one location alone.
Then there was the stock of scrap metal at the 131 Aircrew Base, even more than one thousand five hundred tons, all of which went to Chen Fei.
