325: Chapter 325: I am with You (Fourth Update) 325: Chapter 325: I am with You (Fourth Update) The pace was fast, and the water Zhang Fan replenished was more than enough for Varidas and his team, and the Black Shark’s team had plenty of food and water as well.
At night, guided by Zhang Fan’s USB light, the other three teams also found their way to Zhang Fan.
Two teams of mercenaries.
One team was again sent by Ye Jingtian, and the other by Ouyang Feng.
The third team was Hua Ling and his group.
“You freak, you’ve got a long life ahead of you, even the black storm couldn’t kill you.”
This was the first thing Hua Ling said upon seeing Zhang Fan.
Seeing Hua Ling and his people, Zhang Fan was also deeply moved.
Having come all the way from Capital City, this friendship could be said to be tremendously profound.
Seeing the dust on the faces of Hua Ling and his people, Zhang Fan prepared a jug of ice water, as a treat for his brothers.
Of course, the Black Shark and his team also enjoyed this cool refreshment.
When Hua Ling heard Zhang Dongyang and the Black Shark addressing each other with nicknames like “big bro” and “little bro,” they were utterly shocked.
Who else could address each other in such a manner, if not comrades who had faced life and death together?
However, what was Zhang Dongyang’s identity?
He was a Hidden Dragon!
Then what about the other six?
Undoubtedly, they must be Hidden Dragons too.
Hua Ling and his group looked at the Black Shark and his men with immense respect.
However, Varidas’s team was terrified.
If it hadn’t been for their lack of water, they would never have traveled together with Zhang Fan’s group.
Dragon Group, after all, was synonymous with terror.
Watching the other two teams of mercenaries patting the shoulders of the Black Shark and his men made their throats tighten.
Damn, they really think they have lives to spare.
But fortunately, the Black Shark and his team did not show any dissatisfaction.
Three days later, when Black Rock Town saw a group of more than eighty people emerge from the Gobi, they were utterly shocked.
It was their first time seeing such a large group walk out of the Gobi on foot.
At that moment, the three teams of mercenaries quickly departed.
They also hurriedly reported back to Ye Jingtian and Ouyang Feng.
It wasn’t until they were out of Black Rock Town that Varidas patted the shoulders of the two mercenary leaders and said, “You guys really have some nerve.”
When they discovered the few people with the Black Shark were members of the Dragon Group, they were mixed with fear and regret, wishing they could chop their own hands off.
Immediately, the three teams of mercenaries boarded a plane at the fastest speed.
He’s out!
When Ye Jingtian received this news, he also quickly passed the message to Ye Xuan.
This girl had been in distress for the past seven days, so much that she fainted when she learned that Zhang Fan had safely came out.
When Ouyang Feng heard the news, his stern face finally filled with a smile.
It’s good that he’s safe, oh, it’s good that he’s safe.
The Black Shark and his men stayed behind, and after cleaning themselves up, they lit a bonfire in the small courtyard they had rented.
Roasting a whole lamb!
The very next morning, as dawn broke, the Black Shark and his men boarded a helicopter and left.
Zhang Fan and Zhang Dongyang followed Hua Ling back to Capital City.
The reception party included Ding Yang and a large group of reporters.
The national top scorer in sciences, this was indeed a first for Capital City.
Having waited for more than two months, their eyes were green with anticipation.
Taking turns staking out Zhang Fan’s house for two months, how could they not be excited when they finally saw the man himself.
“Zhang Fan, where have you been these past couple of months?”
“Zhang Fan, you are the national top scorer in sciences.
This time, you’ve really made Capital City proud.”
Zhang Fan gave a vague response and then took off.
Because at the other end of the airport, a beauty dressed in a cheongsam was smiling at him.
Of course, this was Weng Shuang.
“Have these past couple of months been exhausting?” Weng Shuang snuggled into Zhang Fan’s arms, her jade hands gliding over his wheat-colored chest.
“Not too bad, just that Black Storm was a bit scary,” Zhang Fan whispered.
Almost four hours of madness had left him somewhat exhausted.
“I’m glad you made it out,” said Weng Shuang, her voice tinged with a sob.
She rarely paid attention to things online, and she only learned about the Black Storm yesterday.
She had nearly fainted, and just as she was asking Weng Taixing to send people to find Zhang Fan, Ouyang Feng sent a message saying Zhang Fan had already made it out safely.
“By the way, I have to leave tomorrow,” Zhang Fan said.
Weng Shuang raised her head, her gem-like eyes gazing at Zhang Fan’s face, she softly asked, “Isn’t your enlistment starting on the first of September?”
“Yeah, I was supposed to have some more time, but I need to leave tomorrow,” Zhang Fan said.
On the plane, his dad had told him that Black Shark had a special training camp set up for individuals from across the nation with good physical ability.
The recruits were all under the age of twenty-two.
Once they passed the training, they would directly become a special forces unit.
Moreover, the instructors would be Raven and his team.
Hearing this news, Zhang Fan immediately agreed.
His goal was to join Angry Dragon or even Golden Dragon.
With Raven and his team as instructors, he was incredibly eager.
Thinking that his mom was still waiting for him and his dad, he wished he could go immediately.
“Where will you be stationed after you join the military?” Weng Shuang asked.
“Capital City!” Zhang Fan replied.
Feeling the twisting body on top of him, Zhang Fan cradled Weng Shuang’s pretty face, lifted his head, and kissed her.
The madness lasted until nightfall.
Weng Shuang lay on the bed, holding Zhang Fan’s cellphone, lost in the magnificent scenery of the Gobi displayed on the screen.
“I want to go to the Gobi too!”
Zhang Fan, patting Weng Shuang’s back, laughed and said, “No, I really wouldn’t feel safe with you going there.
This time, if it wasn’t for good luck, my hand might have been swallowed by the Black Storm.
Let me show you what it looked like after the Black Storm ravaged the area.”
Zhang Fan quickly swiped across the screen, and soon, he had flipped to the photos.
Looking at the massive trenches, Weng Shuang’s mouth hung open.
“The situation was much more dangerous at the time,” Zhang Fan, holding Weng Shuang’s waist, recounted the moment the Black Storm hit.
After hearing Zhang Fan’s words, Weng Shuang seriously said, “Then I won’t go.”
Zhang Fan nodded, then opened Weibo to upload the photos.
However, when he saw the countless dynamic messages, Zhang Fan was stunned.
“Brother Fan, they say good people don’t live long, risks survive a millennium, you have to keep living well.”
“Brother Fan, the brothers from the Slap Face Squad are all waiting for you to come back, don’t be naughty, come home soon.”
“Brother Fan, if you don’t show up soon, I’m going to chase after your older sister-in-law and second sister-in-law.”
“Brother Fan, if you don’t show up soon, I’m going to sharpen my knife.”
Looking at the tens of thousands of messages, Zhang Fan’s heart warmed.
“Slap Face Squad brothers, I am with you!
Protect the leader, protect the leader!”
The moment Zhang Fan posted on Weibo, the Slap Face Squad exploded with activity.
“Brother Fan is back, Brother Fan is back.”
The next moment, the replies on Zhang Fan’s Weibo broke a hundred, but like his protection message, they weren’t very serious.
“Which commoner plans to attack our leader, they’ll have to get past this vice-leader’s physical book first.”
“Your sister, I’m the vice-leader.”
“Idiot, all the protectors are eunuchs, where is your integrity?”
“I don’t have little brothers, what’s wrong with being a eunuch!”
