Two days passed in a flash.
In the past two days, Lan Ke did not act with Bai Hu and others, but went out alone to collect supplies. The weather was getting colder and colder, and Bai Hu and others were limited in their strength. She had to collect more supplies and alien hearts before the snow blocked the road, so she could not let those people become a burden to her.
Fortunately, Bai Hu is a cautious person. Although the harvest in the past two days was average, he did not encounter any major trouble.
At this time, the probation period of the eight new members had come to an end, and Lan Ke had only two choices: either tell them that they failed the probation and let them withdraw, or let them become official team members.
That evening, Bai Hu came back with the team. Before Lan Ke could speak, the eight newcomers couldn't wait to ask Lan Ke to fulfill his previous promise and settle the materials.
Lan Ke was too lazy to waste time talking to them, so she said directly: "Since you took the initiative to bring it up, I'll be frank. I'm very dissatisfied with your performance. You didn't pass the trial, so you should look for another job."
At this point, she glanced at the eight people coldly. Seeing that some of them were dissatisfied and wanted to refute, she immediately said, "You can settle the materials, but after the settlement, we will have nothing to do with each other. I will lead the team to the military area tomorrow, and then I will not let you follow the team."
"How could you..." One of the women retorted dissatisfiedly, but before she could finish her words, she was frightened and silenced by the unfriendly looks of Bai Hu and others.
Bai Hu smashed the axe in his hand onto the hard floor tiles with a thud. His solemn face seemed to be shrouded in an indissoluble murderous aura. "Just do as Sister Lan says. Does anyone have any objections?"
The eight people looked at the axe in his hand, how could they dare to speak? If they really had the courage, they would not have been hiding in fear and taking advantage of the situation for the past three days.
It wasn't that Lan Ke and Bai Hu were bullying them on purpose, it was just that these people were such bastards that they couldn't even compare to Tian Zuo and Tian You! If they really wanted to compare their abilities, the underage Tian Zuo and Tian You siblings definitely couldn't compare to them, but the siblings were very sensible, not only did they go out with them every day, they were also very efficient when collecting supplies, not lazy at all.
But what about these 8 people? They wish their eyes could grow to the top of their heads, and they act like elites all day long, but when it’s time to work hard, they deliberately shrink back, and their movements are slower than those of the elderly!
The most hateful thing is that every time they encounter an alien species, these people will find ways to hide behind others, and even Tianzuo and Tianyou are not spared.
If Bai Hu and others did not have some strength and were not very vigilant every time they went out, someone might have been unlucky enough to be pushed out and used as a shield.
How could they possibly keep such people? As for supplies, forget it!
Why should they give the supplies they collected with great effort to these sneaky so-called "elites"
Not to mention that they also contributed, you have to know that even the siblings Tianzuo and Tianyou contributed much more than them!
The eight people's eyes flickered, and they wanted to settle the materials first, and then drive behind the team tomorrow. However, Bai Hu and others looked at them unkindly, so they didn't dare to mention the settlement of materials, for fear that these people would really take advantage of their misfortune tomorrow.
After all, it is more important to enter the military area safely than to get those supplies! Once they enter the military area, with their strength, are they still afraid of not having supplies
The eight people were actually quite smart and quick-witted, but unfortunately they were too smart. They all guessed that there must be a lot of people in the army who had turned into monsters, and there was a big gap in personnel. In this case, the military region must be short of people.
Elites like them will definitely be able to get a good position with their past work experience. This is much more glorious than joining a civilian team, with greater benefits and safety.
Unlike the civilian team like Lan Ke, which is small in scale and has few people, not to mention that the supplies they have looted are always limited, they have to live in fear every day.
The eight people had a wishful thinking, but they did not think that even if the military region was large in scale and had abundant supplies, it would not be easy to feed so many people.
What's more, as the military, can they just keep themselves out of it and completely ignore the lives of ordinary people
The eight people thought they had made the wisest choice. After agreeing on a departure time with Lan Ke, they turned around and left without saying a word.
There were still a lot of supplies piled in the truck at this time, but the two sides had already completely fallen out, so they naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to stay and help.
Fortunately, this amount of supplies was nothing to Bai Hu and others. Everyone worked together and quickly finished moving.
After moving everything, Lan Ke gathered everyone together and held a small meeting.
Lan Ke sat on the sofa and said, "As you heard just now, I decided to go to the military area tomorrow. I have collected a lot of alien hearts, so I will go there to see how many weapons I can exchange for.
To be on the safe side, we will go there in an off-road vehicle tomorrow. Sun Yong, Bai Ling, Fang Nan, Wu Meng, Xiao Yu, Tian Zuo and Tian You will all stay at home, and the rest of you will go to the military district with me. But don't be idle, remember to train well and don't slack off."
Sun Yong frowned, not very satisfied with this arrangement: "Sister Lan, let me go. Fatty hasn't awakened his abilities yet, and Mo Ying's attack power is not good either. It's not a good idea to let them go, right?"
Indeed, although Pang Dahai has some strength, his strength is not enough. Mo Ying's awakened gold power is good, but she has just recovered from her injuries, and the power can only be used to strengthen weapons, not attack power.
Among those who went, they were the weakest.
Lan Ke had her own considerations. She explained, "Sun Yong, it is precisely because of your strength that I asked you to stay and look after the house. No one knows what will happen when you go to the military district this time, and how long it will take. I have to prepare for the worst.
This place is our base camp, most of the supplies are stored here, it won't work if no one is watching. I asked you to stay here mainly to look after the house, this mission is not easy, you must do it well, there must be no mistakes!
As for Pang Dahai and Mo Ying, their attack power is indeed not good enough, but Pang Dahai is a smart guy who is good at dealing with people, and Mo Ying's gold ability is also very useful. I don't know what I will encounter this time, so it's more useful to bring them with me than you."
After listening to Lan Ke's explanation, Sun Yong immediately lost his opinion. Although he didn't think Pang Dahai and Mo Ying were more useful than him, he cared about those supplies!
Now the tap water and natural gas have been cut off, and the heating has been cut off for a long time. The weather is getting colder and colder. Everything indicates that the situation will get worse and worse in the future.
At this time, the supplies became the key. Sun Yong would never feel at ease if he left others alone to look after the house.
So he nodded solemnly and assured Lan Ke: "Don't worry, Sister Lan, I will take good care of the house."
Lan Ke was satisfied and looked at Mo Ying again, ready to tell her something.
She was making intensive preparations, but she had no idea that the Tang family was facing a huge crisis.
