The next morning, Aoki took Dazed Beast to the bus station in Yuanzhu City and bought the earliest ticket to Kaji City.
Because Kaji City was located in a remote area in the mountains, there were not many buses from Yuanzhu City to Kaji City. Fortunately, Aoki had asked the hotel staff about the earliest bus time last night. Otherwise, he might have had to wait for another day.
He used his Alliance ID card to buy a ticket that was near the back. He waited for the announcement and got on the bus.
There were not many passengers. Maybe it was because it was still early, or maybe it was because not many people wanted to go to Kaji City.
Kaji City, also known as Kaji Town, was a remote town in the north of Chengdu. It was not very famous, but Aoki was very familiar with Kaji City.
There was a large Rocket Team base in Kaji City. It was second only to the Rocket Team headquarters. It was the largest Rocket Team base in Chengdu.
Aoki had spent three years in the Rocket Team base in Kaji City in his previous life. It was also the first three years after he left the trial island.
It was not until he had the ability to complete difficult missions on his own that he completely left the jurisdiction of the Rocket Team base in Kaji City.
Looking at the scenery outside the car window, Zhang Tie felt a sense of familiarity. After three hours of driving, they had arrived at the suburb of Kaji City. Zhang Tie believed that they would arrive at the station of Kaji City in a short while.
"I didn't think that in my previous life, I would come back in this life after saying that I would never come here again." Qing Mu sighed.
Only he knew what he had experienced in the Rocket Team base in Kaji City in his previous life.
It was said that the trial island was a purgatory. However, after he left the trial island, he struggled in the Rocket Team base for three years. That was the memory that Aoki did not want to think about.
The Rocket Team's hierarchy was very strict. After the trial island, Aoki's results weren't very good. In addition, the talent he displayed wasn't very high. Therefore, when he started as a soldier in the Rocket Team, he suffered a lot of cynicism and even discrimination in this base.
When he entered the Rocket Team, the soldiers had already gathered into a group. Aoki couldn't fit in at all. Because he didn't have a backer in the Rocket Team, his superiors often made things difficult for him.
He didn't know the ways of the world and didn't know how to curry favor with others. He was even more ostracized by the members of the Rocket Team in the base.
Therefore, Aoki spent a very difficult time in this base in his previous life.
However, when he came here again in this life, Aoki's perspective of things had changed. After all, he had reached the level of a quasi-heavenly king, and some of the original trivial matters were no longer in his eyes.
Generally speaking, he was now under the command of the Rocket Team's Shadow Group's deputy leader, the Heavenly King powerhouse Shadow. In this base, not many people dared to not give him face.
Since he was young, Aoki was no longer the inexperienced teenager from his previous life. With his current strength as an elf, he was able to completely destroy his previous self. To put it bluntly, ordinary soldiers in the Rocket Team were no longer enough in front of him.
The bus stopped at the station of Kaji City. When Aoki came out of the bus, he could clearly feel that the air here was a lot colder compared to Yuan Zhu City.
At the same time, compared to Yuan Zhu City, the streets were a lot more deserted. There weren't many people wandering outside, and there wasn't much enthusiasm between people. Everyone had an indifferent look on their faces.
Aoki shook his head. The Rocket Team's influence on this place was really big.
Shadow's mission was to ask Aoki to go to the Lake of Wrath in the north of Kaji City. Go to the Rocket Team's secret research base and find someone through a secret signal to bring back an item.
However, Aoki wasn't in a hurry to do this because he still had to go to the iceberg in the east of Kaji City to look for the little boar and the big rock snake.
Aoki wore a cap on his head and walked silently into Kaji City's Elf Center with his head lowered.
In fact, although Kaji City was the biggest base of the Rocket Team in the Chengdu area, the Alliance's influence here wasn't small either. From such a small city, the powerhouse guarding the dojo was actually Uncle Liu.
With Uncle Liu's strength, he could even challenge the champion. He was a genuine Heavenly King powerhouse, and one of the elders of the Alliance.
If it wasn't for his righteousness and bad temper, one of the Four Heavenly Kings would definitely belong to him.
Even if he wasn't one of the Four Heavenly Kings, his strength was there. The Alliance let him guard a small city like Kaji City so that he could keep an eye on the Rocket Team and make sure they didn't do anything overboard.
Therefore, Aoki didn't dare to use his identity as a member of the Rocket Team to act brazenly. After all, the people in charge of the Chengdu area were still the Alliance.
Using the Alliance's identity card, he successfully entered the Elf Center. He walked to the free video phone in the Elf Center, took out a communication device, and dialed the number on it.
After the call went through, a cute and playful girl appeared on the screen. Her pink hair was tied up in two ponytails. It was Little Qian from Manjin City.
"Aoki, what have you been doing? I've left you a message for a few days, and you still haven't replied?" Little Qian pretended to be angry and asked.
"…" Inexplicably, Aoki felt a headache coming on.
"Alright, I'll stop teasing you. It's like this. The big milk jar at home is almost finished with the energy cube you left for me. If you have time, you can make more." Little Qian stuck out her tongue, and her expression slowly became serious.
Aoki thought that he had overestimated Little Qian's appetite, but he didn't expect her to finish it so quickly.
"I don't have that much time. I've only made a little some time ago. I'll send it to you now." Aoki thought for a moment and said.
Indeed, he would be busy for a period of time. Aoki didn't know if he had time to continue making the Energy Cube that Little Qian needed.
"Oh, okay. Anyway, I still have to thank you. I'll ask Uncle Li to transfer the money to you later." Little Qian didn't think too much about it. She knew that Aoki was busy. Otherwise, he wouldn't have waited so long to reply to her message.
"Okay."
“.....”
The two of them didn't talk much. After all, with Aoki's personality, Little Qian would do most of the talking. Thus, they couldn't continue chatting.
After hanging up the video call, Aoki didn't know why, but he was slightly relieved.
There was a device in the Sprite Center that could teleport items. Other than the Sprite Center, it could also teleport items.
Aoki packed the Energy Cube in advance and sent it to the coordinates that Little Qian left in the message.
Not long after he walked out of the Sprite Center, a message appeared on the message device. "The item has been received. The money has been transferred." These few words.
Without thinking, he knew that Uncle Li must have received the item and transferred the money over.
If it was Little Qian, she definitely wouldn't use such a tone.
