99: Wu Jun was removed from the list!

“I was just lucky. Last night, I killed someone on the level ranking and a blue treasure chest dropped. This thing came out of that chest.”

Cui Yongli said it casually.

However, everyone who heard it was startled!

Last night, he killed someone on the level ranking?

You have to know, last night there was only a world level ranking!

At that time, the world level ranking was almost entirely foreign names!

The entire Great Xia Country barely had anyone on the world level ranking!

It's hard to imagine that a small Hai City would also have someone on the level ranking!

Cui Yongli certainly didn't tell everyone—

Actually, when the apocalypse descended, he discovered the Crystal Nucleus in people's heads very early on!

It's just that at the time, the Crystal Nucleus was snatched by a strong person with A-Level Talent!

That strong person also took the opportunity to get on the world level ranking!

However, Cui Yongli was not to be trifled with.

His Talent was actually very strong, but it didn't have much combat power initially.

Later, he used some tricks to successfully counter-kill the A-Level Talent user, directly dropping a treasure chest!

It must be said, Cui Yongli's experience was even somewhat similar to Lin Chuan's early stages!

It's just a pity that the Sonic Sparrow that dropped from his treasure chest was a support-type item, and its offensive power was far inferior to the Death Grip that Lin Chuan obtained.

He also didn't rise rapidly like Lin Chuan; instead, he had been developing cautiously, looking for opportunities.

He had been with Wu Jun's team for the shortest time, and Wu Jun didn't actually trust him much.

At this moment, he even asked with a questioning look, “This sparrow is so small, how does it carry people? Do we shrink? Or does it get bigger?”

Cui Yongli immediately explained, “Neither. Inside this sparrow, there should be a special space. We will be in that special space, and then follow the sparrow to Liberation Road! If you're not at ease, Boss, you can go into the sparrow's internal space and take a look now?”

Wu Jun pondered for a moment, nodded, and then tested the sparrow's passenger space.

Soon, he came out of the space and mused, “The space is indeed so small that it can only carry two people.”

“But—” he suddenly looked up at Cui Yongli, his eyes sharp and dangerous, “once we enter the sparrow's space, when it's just the two of us, and I don't have my Corpse Eater subordinates, who are super combatants, how can I ensure that you won't make a move against me?!”

Cui Yongli seemed to be stunned for a moment, then said with a look of disbelief, “Boss, how could you think that of me?! How could I make a move against you??? Our goal is the same, that super big Boss!”

“Hmph,” Wu Jun still looked skeptical, “There's only one big Boss, the Crystal Nucleus will definitely be mine, and the body too. What benefit could you get?”

“The big Boss will definitely drop treasure chests! What if you're in a great mood, Boss, maybe I can get some scraps? Besides, we're a team, Boss. When you become stronger, we, your subordinates, will naturally benefit!” Cui Yongli looked utterly loyal, as if following a Boss like Wu Jun was the greatest blessing of his life!

However, Wu Jun still harbored reservations about Cui Yongli killing a strong person on the level ranking last night.

The probability of such a thing happening was too small!

And sometimes, the occurrence of a low-probability event might be luck, or it might involve more human factors.

Cui Yongli was a murderer before the apocalypse!

He had the prisoner's unique buzz cut, and he even wore prisoner's clothes when he joined the team!

How could Wu Jun easily believe that such a person was truly loyal?

Cui Yongli looked at Wu Jun's expression, his eyes appearing very distressed.

But soon, he gritted his teeth and took out another item from his dimensional ring—a somewhat eerie cloth doll.

A substitute doll!

“Boss, being so knowledgeable, you should recognize this, right?”

Wu Jun's eyes widened, shining brightly!

Of course, he recognized it; a substitute doll had previously sold for a high price in the trading market!

This was a treasure that could give someone an extra life!

He never expected Cui Yongli to have such a treasure on him!

For a moment, Wu Jun even had murderous intentions, thinking that no matter what, he had to snatch this substitute doll!

Fortunately, Cui Yongli clearly understood the principle of “a man's wealth is his ruin.”

He reluctantly handed the substitute doll to Wu Jun, then said, “Like this, can Boss trust me now?”

Wu Jun immediately took the substitute doll, but neither put it into his dimensional ring nor responded verbally.

Cui Yongli further explained, “I haven't even bound this substitute doll myself; I originally thought of putting it on the market to trade for some good things. Now, since I've ‘given’ it to you, Boss, I hope that after you kill the Boss, the treasure chest that drops can be mine. Additionally, for the Crystal Nucleus obtained by the team later, I hope I can be second only to you, Boss, and have priority over Rong Jieming in using high-level Crystal Nucleus.”

In this passage, he didn't mention the word “loyalty” at all, yet every word demonstrated his loyalty!

If he wasn't loyal to this team, why would he think about the future distribution of the team's Crystal Nucleus?

Because of this, Wu Jun's wariness towards him lessened considerably.

He pondered for a long time and finally made a decision: “Alright! I agree! How about this, I'll spend ten minutes binding the substitute doll first. Ten minutes later, you and I will take the Sonic Sparrow to Liberation Road to fight the Boss. Rong Jieming, you take the subordinates and stay here to guard the vending machine.”

Saying that, he patted Rong Jieming's shoulder to reassure him, “This gas station is always our base camp. No matter how well Cui and I develop on Liberation Road, we will eventually return here.”

Rong Jieming's eyes were somewhat solemn. He glanced at Cui Yongli, then looked at Wu Jun, and finally nodded.

He always felt that Cui Yongli was very strange.

But in this team, Wu Jun was the leader, and he and Cui Yongli were in a competitive relationship.

Speaking ill of Cui Yongli from his mouth would probably be useless.

Rong Jieming felt heavy-hearted, only hoping that nothing would go wrong on this Boss-hunting trip.

However, even if something happened, it probably wouldn't affect him.

After all, their team was purely formed by force.

Once Wu Jun and Cui Yongli really ran into trouble, Rong Jieming would become the new Boss!

During the ten minutes, Wu Jun mainly bound the substitute doll.

The substitute doll needed to be hidden in a secret place. Once the owner died, it would swap positions with the substitute doll!

Ten minutes later, Wu Jun and Cui Yongli entered the sparrow's space!

Soon, the black sparrow soared into the sky, flying towards Liberation Road at an extremely fast speed!

The subordinates guarding the gas station looked up at the sky for a while, and the sparrow became an invisible black dot in the night sky.

Rong Jieming waved his hand, taking charge of the situation again, “Alright, everyone be on high alert now! We offended a lot of people by occupying this vending machine before. Now that Boss Wu has left, someone might launch a sneak attack at any time! Everyone, be extremely vigilant!”

“Yes!” The subordinates were all in high spirits, because they followed a super powerful big shot!

Many people even felt that Wu Jun's strength should be stronger than Lin Chuan's!

After all, Wu Jun was the only SS-level talent owner in the world!

As for Lin Chuan?

The only information they learned from the world channel was that he had dropped a golden treasure chest and obtained super combat power equipment by killing the previous number one on the level ranking!

Equipment was always an external thing; how could it compare to their Boss Wu's SS-level talent, which was so much more powerful?!

However—

The sparrow had just taken off not long ago.

The subordinates had also just been on alert not long ago.

In the team at the gas station, every subordinate who stayed behind, including Rong Jieming, was dumbfounded—

“What's going on?!!! Boss Wu's name, why did it suddenly disappear from the level ranking and the slaughter chart?!”
