False Court
Chapter 31 Departure
In fact, Su Mo originally intended to separate from Lan Xi after reaching the safe zone. However, after Tang Zhi, that troublemaker, stirred things up, he knew that Lan Xi definitely wouldn't be able to stay in the guild. This was perfect, as he was short of a helper to do odd jobs and logistics. Through these few days of observation, he discovered that this was indeed a team game. If one worked alone, the limitations were too high, and it was also a waste of energy.
So, when they separated, Su Mo never said to Lan Xi that the team was disbanded from beginning to end.
"No, nothing."
Lan Xi revealed a happy smile.
"What's so great about it? Isn't it just birds of a feather flocking together? There are only two of you, what can you do? You have to know that this is a team game."
Tang Zhi sneered unhappily.
"Hehe, you're right, it is indeed birds of a feather flocking together. But what I'm telling you is that people with clean hearts see everything as clean. People with dirty hearts see and say everything as dirty. I bravely saved people, but Lan Xi only saw the scene of me killing people in the end, trapping me for eliminating harm to the people. May I ask, what's wrong with that? There was only a misunderstanding between us. If there is anything wrong, it's that it gave you villains the opportunity to gossip and take things out of context."
Su Mo turned his head and glanced at Tang Zhi, immediately scaring her into taking a step back.
"You..."
After Tang Zhi retreated, she immediately felt extremely embarrassed, her entire face burning. The hatred in her heart grew even stronger.
At this time, Sun Duo Xiang and the others in the distance were constantly peeking at Su Mo. After returning to the guild, Sun Duo Xiang thought about it and felt that Su Mo was still reliable. So, all this time, he hadn't done anything but stare at Su Mo to see if he had any new actions.
In addition, there was another person standing next to Sun Duo Xiang. This person was none other than Chen Xin, a senior executive of the Wu Ji (Martial Limit) Guild.
He whispered to Sun Duo Xiang, "Brother, I'm very optimistic about your boss, and I also know that you really want to act with him. I unconditionally support you in this regard. Try to get familiar with him and see if you can pull him into the guild. If you can do it, the guild will definitely promote you and give you a big reward."
"Really? Good, good, I'll try my best."
Sun Duo Xiang agreed verbally, but he complained in his heart. Join? No way! Although the Wu Ji Guild is also good, that's only for ordinary people. A master like Su Mo is a hot commodity no matter which top guild he goes to, how could he casually join? Not to mention Su Mo's personality is so cold.
"Go ahead, I'm optimistic about you."
Chen Xin gave Sun Duo Xiang a gesture of encouragement.
Sun Duo Xiang then led Zhang Hao and the others towards Su Mo and Lan Xi.
"Oh, what a coincidence..."
Sun Duo Xiang revealed a cheap smile, pretending to be a chance encounter.
Su Mo was too lazy to expose Sun Duo Xiang. He had been following him, creating situations for chance encounters. He had already noticed it.
There aren't so many coincidences in this world.
Su Mo asked coldly.
"What?"
"Oh, are you planning to go out exploring? Take us with you."
Sun Duo Xiang rubbed his hands and said with a smile.
"No."
"Why?"
"You're too stupid, you'll only hold us back."
Su Mo replied without even thinking.
If someone else had said this, Sun Duo Xiang and the others would have exploded with anger. But it was different when these words came from Su Mo's mouth, because in comparison, they really were trash, so they could only smile foolishly with a straight face. They also complained wildly in their hearts: "Damn it, if we weren't trash, would we still shamelessly stick to you?"
Tang Zhi on the side looked at Sun Duo Xiang and saw the Wu Ji Guild logo on their clothes. A pattern of a martial arts villain. It could be seen that their clothes were uniformly made before entering. Then a gloating expression appeared on her face.
"You dare to scold the people of the Wu Ji Guild, let's see how you clean up this mess."
Compared to the Meng Guild, the Wu Ji Guild was much stronger. Even in this safe zone, the Wu Ji Guild could be considered one of the top guilds.
But what happened next was beyond her expectations. Sun Duo Xiang replied with a smile.
"Boss, we also know that we are trash, so please take your little brothers with you. Don't worry, if you tell me to go east, I will go east, no ambiguity."
"No, you already have a guild, just walk with the people from your guild. Besides, didn't we agree that we would go our separate ways when we reached the safe zone?"
Su Mo directly rejected him. Sun Duo Xiang and Lan Xi were a bit different. This guy was from the Wu Ji Guild and seemed to be doing well. It was obvious that he was here to win him over. In contrast, Lan Xi was purely marginalized and excluded.
Sun Duo Xiang was indeed a shrewd person and keenly noticed the reason why Su Mo was rejecting him. As he expected, this guy didn't want to have too much involvement with the guild, so he smiled and pleaded.
"Boss, the people in the guild are not as good as you. Besides, following you is more promising than being in the guild. Just take me with you, we brothers still have some strength to help out."
Su Mo thought for a while, after careful consideration, he did need some manpower. Although Sun Duo Xiang and these guys weren't very capable, they were obedient, and Su Mo knew them a bit, so they were considered reliable.
"Alright, since you want to follow so much, do as you please."
Su Mo was too lazy to continue talking nonsense with him.
"Thank you."
Sun Duo Xiang agreed without even thinking.
"Let's go!"
Su Mo said very simply and neatly.
Sun Duo Xiang and his five companions happily followed Su Mo and Lan Xi.
Leaving behind Tang Zhi and the others, who were extremely annoyed, but they were also helpless.
Soon, the seven of them came to a deserted corner of the safe zone. Su Mo looked at the temporarily formed team as a whole. Apart from himself, the other six were Sun Duo Xiang, Lan Xi, Zhang Hao, Ma Ke, Liu Xi, and Qin Dou.
"Our goal this time is a building in the southwestern suburbs, about ten kilometers away from us in a straight line."
Su Mo announced to everyone.
"So far! Boss, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Sun Duo Xiang and the others couldn't help but gasp. Now, most of the teams in the safe zone that go out to carry out exploration missions generally don't have a maximum range of more than two kilometers.
Because the further they run, the higher the probability of an accident, and there is no time to return to the safe zone.
"That's right, this building is quite special, and the benefits are estimated to be good."
Su Mo responded very affirmatively.
"I'm not worried about the benefits, the key is how do we get there? Are we going to drive over there?"
Sun Duo Xiang asked a little confused.
"Don't drive, driving is too dangerous, it's easy to attract hordes of zombies and mutated creatures, so we can only walk there."
"Uh, how do we walk?"
"As for the route, you don't have to worry about it. Just follow me, I have already planned a route that can avoid large-scale zombie groups and monsters as much as possible, as well as large player gathering areas."
Su Mo responded calmly.
"As expected of the boss, you are really awesome."
Sun Duo Xiang immediately smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth when he heard Su Mo's words.
"That's right, with the boss's words, we have confidence."
Zhang Hao and the others echoed.
