210: Then I ask you
“No, what kind of crappy gear are you two carrying?”
On the Ocean Spectrum cruise ship.
Li Wenzhe looked at the gear on the two escorts and his eyelids twitched.
Due to previous failures, the contracts for the two escorts had not been completed, so it was estimated that they would have to follow Li Wenzhe for a while.
When Li Wenzhe came to Longbow Creek Valley to run raids, they also had to come and run raids, and in this normal difficulty map, the two escorts felt there was no need to bring good equipment.
After all, the better the equipment, the more wear and tear. For example, a stack of Tier 2 rifle bullets costs around three thousand, while a stack of Tier 3 bullets costs ten times that.
Therefore, the two escorts from Lighthouse Country also got smarter. This time, both of them only brought a set of Tier 3 armor and a Wild Bull submachine gun, only adding a scope, keeping the entry cost to a minimum.
Anyway, the insurance premiums have already soared to an exorbitant price, and it's highly unlikely they'll be completed in Longbow Creek Valley.
When they get lucky and find a big gold or big red item to give to Li Wenzhe, they can end this miserable escort journey.
“Boss, this is a professional setup, don’t worry.”
“That’s right, we are professional escorts, would we harm you?”
John and David said, their faces not red and their hearts not pounding.
At this moment, Li Wenzhe, wearing a Tier 4 set and holding an M4A1 rifle, was also fuming with anger.
These two escorts are truly something else!
All their equipment combined isn't even worth his bare rifle!
“Damn it, I don’t know how Xiao Yun leveled up so fast! It’s making the old man at home put pressure on me.”
Li Wenzhe grumbled to himself.
For some reason, Li Wenzhe’s grandfather, Li Lei, the head of Leijian Group, learned about Xiao Yun’s performance in the restricted zone.
Unlike Li Wenzhe’s parents, Li Lei had always been very strict with Li Wenzhe. Upon hearing that someone at their school had better restricted zone scores than Li Wenzhe, he immediately criticized Li Wenzhe.
And from his grandfather's mouth, Li Wenzhe also learned that Xiao Yun had already reached the Black Eagle rank!
This was equivalent to passing the threshold for GTI Professional, possessing the qualification to participate in the assessment.
“Damn it, my parents are useless! I clearly told them before to keep a close eye on Xiao Yun’s movements, but they didn’t tell me when they found out Xiao Yun’s rank was rising so fast! They said they kept it a secret because they were afraid I’d be anxious and nervous, but I think those two are deliberately trying to harm me!”
Li Wenzhe cursed angrily.
After the guaranteed admission quota came out, he had been taking leave under the guise of running raids in the restricted zone, but in reality, he was out partying with his friends every day.
If he had known earlier that Xiao Yun’s rank was rising so fast, how could he have been willing to fall behind?
He would definitely have called on two escorts and frantically searched for supplies in the restricted zone.
Of course, this was just Li Wenzhe’s own imagination.
At this time, Xiao Yun’s rank had already reached Black Eagle 2, and this was even with him not recording his battle results most of the time.
Although Li Wenzhe had completed several high-value extractions worth hundreds of thousands, his rank had only risen from Bronze 5 to Silver 2.
Based solely on the rank difference, it was like heaven and earth.
“Damn it, that old man Li Lei is crazy too. He actually wants me to reach the Black Eagle rank before university, otherwise he’ll cut off my allowance. This idiot old man, he’s truly insane!”
Li Wenzhe grumbled to himself.
The two escorts beside him were already used to his behavior.
After all, their boss Li Wenzhe hadn't been an idiot for just a day or two. The two of them were only responsible for taking him into the restricted zone and didn't care about anything else.
However.
Li Wenzhe’s complaints were overheard by Xiao Yun, who was standing behind them.
“So much pressure?”
“Who!?”
Li Wenzhe immediately turned his head sharply.
When he clearly saw Xiao Yun’s figure, his expression gradually became somewhat ferocious.
“Damn it! Xiao Yun, you still dare to appear in front of me!”
“I don’t have time for your nonsense right now.”
Xiao Yun said indifferently.
“I’ll just ask you one question, though I feel you probably can’t handle it anyway. Sigh, I feel like asking is pointless.”
Xiao Yun said with a helpless expression, while observing Li Wenzhe’s reaction.
“You’re talking nonsense! Is there anything in Haibei City that I, Li Wenzhe, can’t handle? Besides bringing the dead back to life, what else can’t I handle?”
As expected.
Just as Xiao Yun expected, Li Wenzhe immediately became even more enraged upon hearing this.
And seeing his reaction, Xiao Yun smiled faintly.
He had previously wondered if he needed to use some despicable means to force Li Wenzhe to do things for him.
Although Jiang Kexin hadn't given him the complete evidence of his illegal car crash transaction, she had only sent that video before.
But that stuff isn't legally binding, though it's enough to scare him in reality!
Xiao Yun had originally thought about whether to use this matter to threaten him, to get him to help deal with the helicopter brought out from Baksh.
After all, that thing wasn't ordinary restricted zone material; ordinary people really couldn't handle it.
But looking at the current situation, it seems completely unnecessary!
He didn’t expect Li Wenzhe to be so simple-minded; it felt like he could be fooled with just a few words.
“Good, then I ask you, have you ever ridden in a helicopter?”
“Nonsense! Not only have I ridden in one, I’ve even flown one! I rode in one when I was three years old playing in Lighthouse Country, okay? What’s so rare about that?”
Li Wenzhe said with disdain.
Although his words at this moment sounded like those elementary school students who gather to brag after winter and summer vacations, one saying how many Tibetan mastiffs their family raised, another saying how many countries they visited during the summer.
But those who knew Li Wenzhe’s identity wouldn’t believe he was lying.
It was just that saying he had flown a helicopter was a bit of a lie; that thing requires a helicopter pilot’s license.
With his intelligence, he might even struggle to pass a car driving test!
He probably just touched the steering wheel and then claimed he had flown a helicopter.
“Okay, then I ask you again, I have a helicopter here for sale, can you find a buyer?”
“You’re bragging!”
Hearing this, Li Wenzhe was immediately angered to the point of laughter.
“I, the dignified young master of Leijian Group, can’t afford a helicopter, and you can have a helicopter? If you can, I’ll chop off my head and give it to you!”
“Alright, alright, Brother Li, I don’t want your head.”
Xiao Yun sighed silently. Li Wenzhe’s words were quite terrifying.
He just wanted him to help find a buyer for a helicopter, and he actually offered to chop off his head and give it to him!
That was too scary.
“I’ll just say it directly: I brought a helicopter out of the restricted zone. Can you find a way to sell it?”
Xiao Yun said indifferently.
If he kept beating around the bush, Li Wenzhe probably wouldn't understand even after listening for a long time.
“What!?”
Li Wenzhe’s eyebrows shot up upon hearing this.
“Bringing a helicopter out of the restricted zone, you must be joking, right?”
