"Department Head Liu, Department Head Zheng, congratulations on your promotion." A young man in his twenties with silver-rimmed spectacles walked out of the meeting room and congratulated them with a smile.
Zheng Tiezhuang and Liu Zhanghao stopped talking at the same time and turned to look at the young man behind them.
Liu Zhanghao put on a fake smile and said, "Sir Han, the order was given by the young master. We can't help you even if we want to."
Han Xing waved his hand and said, "You misunderstood, Department Head Liu. My brother has made a mistake and he should be punished. I agree with the young master's decision."
Liu Zhanghao's expression softened and he said, "Is there anything else?"
"Would you like to have dinner with both of you tonight? I've already ordered a banquet, "Han Xing said humbly.
Zheng Tiezhuang shook his head and said, "It's okay. My wife made pork rib soup at home. We'll be scolded again if we don't go home tonight."
Liu Zhanghao said apologetically, "Then I'm really sorry. If Old Zheng doesn't go, it's not appropriate for me to go alone. People will gossip if they see me. "
Han Xing sighed and waved his hand. "It's okay, it's okay."
.....
A day later, the matter in the suburbs was settled.
Until then, the news that had been kept under wraps was officially announced by the Union Government. Of course, there were already rumors circulating before this, but the truth was never officially announced by the Union Government.
Immediately, the news spread far and wide, and several nearby base cities were informed of the news.
At the same time, there were two other pieces of news. The other base cities along the coast were attacked to varying degrees, including Pengcheng Base City which was not far from Yang Cheng.
Hou Mu knocked on the door and entered the office. He said to Gao Peng who was reading by the window, "Young master, the governments of Yang Cheng and Pengcheng have formed a special joint force to investigate the coast."
Gao Peng closed his book and stood up to look out the window. He could see a deep blue at the end of his vision.
"Did you find out where the group of familiars that attacked us came from?"
"They came from Nanhe Village."
"Nanhe Village?" Gao Peng repeated.
"Yes, Nanhe Village isn't far from here. Two of our factory's employees are from Nanhe Village. It's a village near the sea. There are also some guards with familiars in the village … It's just that after the disaster, none of the people who stayed in the village survived."
After letting out a long sigh, Gao Peng narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance. "Ask Liu Zhanghao to come over. You can go down and restore all the factories in the company. Just work overtime for the next few days."
"Understood." Hou Mu turned around and left the office, closing the door behind him.
Liu Zhanghao came up quickly, and Gao Peng turned around. "Later, get everyone from the exploration department to monitor the surroundings. If there are any more monsters that come to attack, call me."
"Don't worry, Young Master. I won't let you down." Liu Zhanghao said firmly. After a pause, he suddenly said, "By the way, Young Master, Director Han Xing from the sales department wishes to join the group's exploration department."
Han Xing? Gao Peng frowned. Yesterday, he had glanced at the company's human resources department.
He recalled that Han Xing was the younger brother of Han Fu, one of the four security guards who had been punished yesterday. He had been marked in red on the document. However, Gao Peng didn't care about that. The one who had made the mistake was Han Fu, not Han Xing. He couldn't punish Han Xing just because he was Han Fu's younger brother. Otherwise, it would only affect the company's morale. And now, Han Fu had come looking for him.
After thinking for a while, Gao Peng said calmly, "What's the level of his familiar?"
"Commander-tier." Liu Zhanghao glanced at the Young Master.
"Give him the status of an elite member of the exploration department first. We'll see how he performs in the future." Gao Peng didn't say anything else after saying this.
After that, Gao Peng went downstairs and called Flamy and Da Zi over. He had left Dumb Xiao Huang at Southern Sky. The two familiars' abilities were suitable for group battles. Of course, Flamy was also suitable. However, Flamy was the only familiar under Gao Peng's command that could carry him comfortably while flying. Therefore, Gao Peng kept her by his side. Da Zi's wings made a lot of noise when he flew. It was as if he was riding a small electric motor.
Gao Peng rode Flamy and left Southern Sky, heading south. Below him were roads of various sizes in the suburbs. There were also some broken electric poles and lamps on the side of the road.
After flying for about five minutes, he saw the shadows of some buildings on the ground ahead.
These buildings weren't big. They were scattered around the back of a hill. A main road ran through the entire village. However, at that moment, the village was emitting a deathly stillness.
Gao Peng patted Flamy's back. Flamy understood and landed.
Da Zi flew down first and went around the small alleys of the village.
"Da Zi!" Gao Peng scolded through the Blood Contract.
Da Zi stopped and leaned against a wall like a large gecko.
Its dark purple carapace and golden wings were particularly eye-catching. They formed a strong contrast with the gray cement wall beneath it. Its sharp claws climbed up the gray cement wall, scraping layers of lime. Its body, which was more than six meters long, took up almost half of the wall.
The village was very quiet. There were still traces of blood on the ground that hadn't dried yet.
Half of the houses nearby had collapsed. It wasn't obvious when they were in the sky, but when they landed in the village, they realized that many of the houses on the street had been destroyed. Broken bricks were piled up inside the walls. Through the holes in the walls, they could see a large wooden round table on the ground. There was also a thermos flask with a large red rose print on the ground. The silver flask was shattered all over the ground.
All of this was a clear indication of how intense the scene had been when the disaster happened.
Gao Peng remembered that it had been like this four years ago when the disaster had happened. He recalled the scenes that had happened four years ago. At that time, he had hidden behind the window and opened the curtains a small gap. Through this gap, he had seen the people running in fear on the street below, as well as all kinds of mutated monsters running through the streets.
This scene repeated itself. In the face of an even more powerful force, all life was so fragile.
Thud.
The sound of something falling to the ground came from the distance. It was especially clear in the quiet village.
Da Zi moved like a dragon. The wings on its back flapped, and it turned into a purple beam of light as it charged out!
In a collapsed house in the distance, a translucent figure shuttled through the gaps between the bricks and weeds at an extremely fast speed.
Boom! A huge purple figure broke through the wall. The wall of the house was smashed into pieces. In the midst of the debris, a ferocious giant beast opened its huge pincers and locked onto the translucent shrimp below …
Da Zi returned with a half-meter long shrimp. Of course, this shrimp was only relative to Da Zi's size. In fact, it was a full 30 centimeters long, which was already considered a plump and juicy shrimp.
This half-meter long shrimp waved its pincers stubbornly, and the two antennae on top of its head kept waving.
[Monster Name]: Land Hermit Shrimp (Multi-legged Variant)
[Monster Level]: Level 8
[Monster Grade]: Excellent
[Monster Attribute]: Wind
[Monster Condition]: Healthy (Tough on the outside but weak on the inside)
As if it had noticed Gao Peng's gaze, the Land Hermit Shrimp fiercely raised its slender pincers and clamped the air in front of its eyes.
In response, it was met with the calm eyes of the two beasts and one man.
