There was no doubt that Chen Feng's strength had increased by a few notches. With the Demonic Fish under his command, he would have a strong guarantee of safety when facing the coastal cities.
Although the Demonic Fish didn't even have a decent performance since he summoned it, it was scared twice and even its tentacles were broken. However, this still couldn't belittle the fish's deterrence in the sea.
It was just unlucky. In the sea, it would display its true ability. Chen Feng could only comfort himself like this.
…
The atmosphere became a little strange.
Xu Hongzhuang stood at the side and looked at the man in front of her who she couldn't see through. There were quite a lot of complicated thoughts in her mind.
"During the time I'm gone, I'll leave the order to you." Chen Feng went straight to the point.
Xu Hongzhuang looked up at him without much expression on her face. "If possible, I want to go with you. I want to see the outside world."
This was the third time Xu Hongzhuang had asked Chen Feng for help.
After experiencing all kinds of things, Xu Hongzhuang had become a crazy martial arts fanatic. She did her best to pursue strength. Not long ago, when she learned that the surrounding cities sent out help, she was the first to express her willingness to go to Chen Feng.
But the outcome was predictable.
Chen Feng didn't agree to her request.
At this time, Xu Hongzhuang was wearing a checkered suit. Compared to the Einherjar on the battlefield, she looked more like an ordinary girl now.
Chen Feng took a step forward as a sweet fragrance drifted into his nose. Looking at Xu Hongzhuang in front of him, he stretched out his hand and lightly lifted Xu Hongzhuang's chin as he said, "This is not the attitude of a beggar."
It was very smooth.
Perhaps it was because of her ability, even when she participated in the battle and faced a lot of cold and heat, her skin was still as delicate as a baby's. It made people feel like they couldn't put it down.
Xu Hongzhuang didn't dodge.
After experiencing this incident, she was no longer the young girl who would show her emotions on her face just because of a little thing.
Perhaps she was too tactful, or perhaps the man had given her too much surprise and shock, but Xu Hongzhuang acquiesced to Chen Feng's invasion. She only raised her head, her eyes filled with stubbornness.
She wanted to see the outside world.
Chen Feng's calloused right hand slid down. This action was a little too much. Xu Hongzhuang tried to pretend to be calm, but as the other party's hand slid down, she couldn't sit still. She tried to take a step back, but in the next second, her neck was gently held.
Chen Feng placed his right hand on the other party's neck. Rather than holding it, it would be better to rub it. A slightly hoarse voice sounded from his throat. "Perhaps you can rest here today and tell me your thoughts while you're at it."
This was a very clear hint.
Xu Hongzhuang immediately took a step back and broke free from Chen Feng's hand. This had already crossed her bottom line. At this time, a pair of phoenix eyebrows looked at Chen Feng with slight anger.
Chen Feng turned a blind eye and sat on a chair at the side. He said softly, "Someone needs to take care of order. Although the surrounding situation has been stabilized, no one knows which will come first. I don't trust others, not because they aren't loyal, but because they don't have the ability to protect this city."
"But you are different. During the time I'm gone, protect this place well. When I come back, because of your passivity, if anything happens to this place, then I will eat you in this room."
Chen Feng's eyes were filled with a red glow. The corner of his mouth curled up, and he looked at Xu Hongzhuang with a smile that wasn't a smile. He didn't hide the hidden meaning of this sentence at all.
Xu Hongzhuang shuddered.
There were many explanations for "eat", but Xu Hongzhuang knew that it was definitely not the commonly used word. The other party had clearly expressed that if she went against the other party's instructions, she might be punished.
What was this?
On one hand, he wanted her to stay and protect the order. On the other hand, he was threatening her. Did he really think that she was made of mud? He dared to …
Xu Hongzhuang stopped thinking.
She couldn't deny it.
He really dared to!
In the short amount of time they had known each other, in Xu Hongzhuang's mind, Chen Feng had always been a man of his word. He had never made a bet that he wasn't confident in, and he had never spouted any nonsense.
Xu Hongzhuang opened her mouth a few times, but she didn't know what to say.
She agreed just like that?
Why? She was also an expert at the peak of the Silver level. She was so humble that she was completely different from the ordinary Xu Hongzhuang. But if she opened her mouth to refuse, would she have the guts to do so?
There was a moment of silence.
Xu Hongzhuang could only let out a resentful look, then angrily opened the door and walked out.
Chen Feng pinched the space between his eyebrows.
As for the candidates to stay, he had already thought of a few. Originally, the first candidate was Wei Xun. Wei Xun could be competent in the economic zone, but this was Qiaodong. Although Wei Xun's strength was not weak, after all, he was too inexperienced in Qiaodong. It would be difficult to convince the people to stay and guard.
After thinking about it, only Xu Hongzhuang was the best candidate.
Although the relationship between the other party and himself was very subtle, neither a loyal relationship nor a superior relationship, it still didn't affect Chen Feng from putting such a heavy burden on her shoulders.
First of all, Xu Hongzhuang was a person who looked down on power. Even if she was disloyal when he left, the food lifeline of the entire Qiaodong was already in his hands.
It was easy to go from simple to extravagant, and difficult to go from extravagant to simple.
Because of the research results of Truman and the widespread popularization of mutated food, the ordinary people in Qiaodong had already gotten rid of their previous state of hunger. Under such circumstances, even if Xu Hongzhuang would rebel, most of the survivors who had tasted the sweetness would not respond to her call.
In this world, food was the king.
Conspiracy?
This was not a topic that the survivors were concerned about.
In a short period of time, Chen Feng had already settled all the matters regarding the order of the city. Today, he had even issued the order for the battle. A group of elites would be dispatched from several departments to head to T City to provide assistance.
In addition to the normal soldiers, because T city was a coastal city, Chen Feng also brought a hundred Naga Sirens.
Worried that it was still early, some Naga Sirens would not listen to orders?
As early as the transfer, Chen Feng had said in front of all the Naga Sirens. During the battle, anyone who fled or disobeyed orders would be sentenced to death. In addition, their relatives in the camp would also be executed, leaving no survivors.
After a period of interrogation, Chen Feng also learned some news. This group of Naga Sirens came from a group, and many of them followed their families. Hostages, desperate times, desperate measures. With the people in the camp as hostages, there was no need to worry that these Sirens would not be obedient!
