CHAPTER 371: CHAPTER 152: WHAT IS LOST IN THE EAST CORNER IS GAINED IN THE WESTERN ELM_3

"If this hadn’t happened today, by the time you really grow at such a rapid pace, you might pose a threat to his position. I bet he’d quietly get rid of you. Consider this as a blessing in disguise, you’ve escaped a real danger."

Ren Zhong: "Ah, well..."

"In any case, it’s just that Lin Wang and the others are dead. You don’t need to dwell on it too much."

Ren Zhong carefully asked, "So... Mr. Yang, can I come back?"

"Hahaha! Of course! Not only can you come back, but I’ll also transfer Lin Wang’s professional team contract to you. But, unfortunately, Lin Wang just moved the reserve funds inside, so you’ll have to start from scratch. But you’re now barely considered a small rich man, only Second Level, not needing that much money. By the way, what about the equipment of Lin Wang, Bei Lihui, and Si Mawan?"

"Earlier, just after I killed the two of them, the Ruined Beast regained mobility, and my armor’s energy index kept alarming, so I didn’t dare to pick it up and flew out on my own."

"I see." Yang Bingzhong seemed a bit regretful, "Anyway, it’s not important. I originally wanted to say that since you and Lin Wang were similar in size, you could use his gear. Since it’s lost, never mind."

"Hmm."

"Have you figured out how to come back? Do you need me to send someone to pick you up?"

"No need, I happened to know a traveling merchant nearby, I asked him to pick me up."

"Alright, stay safe."

"Thank you, Mr. Yang."

After hanging up the communication, a smile of having everything under control appeared on Yang Bingzhong’s face.

He did not doubt the authenticity of Ren Zhong’s words.

It fit the logic.

Ren Zhong only had Second Level strength, which was beyond doubt.

Although Lin Bei and the others were severely wounded repeatedly and were at their wits’ end, they were, after all, seasoned Fourth Level professionals, yet they were tragically defeated.

Ren Zhong showcased staggering combat abilities.

Even the experienced Yang Bingzhong was left in awe, feeling it was nothing short of miraculous.

Yang Bingzhong always considered Lin Wang to be a talent.

But after personally witnessing the miracle of a Second Level killing a Fourth Level, Mr. Yang felt a little ashamed for his previous lack of insight.

To know, Ren Zhong only started the path of a Mechanical Warrior after entering Starfire Town.

Counting today, it’s just about a month and a half!

Ren Zhong had been secretly selling those Ruined Beasts using a rogue account at Starfire Resources, and Mr. Yang knew full well.

He watched as Ren Zhong initially could only deal with First and Second Level Ruined Beasts, then moved to the Third Level, and 19 days ago led Zheng Tian and others to tackle the Fourth Level.

This pace of growth was astonishing but traceable.

Ren Zhong couldn’t possibly be any outside master hiding his strength for a ploy here.

He was a genuine combat genius!

Under normal circumstances, if such a frighteningly talented professional appeared in Yang Bingzhong’s jurisdiction, he would be both thrilled and worried.

But having witnessed Ren Zhong’s "innocent" side, Mr. Yang felt only one thing in his heart at this moment.

Heaven helps me!

Moving to Chromium Carbon Town was already a certainty, and his rise was unstoppable.

He was worried about having no capable hands on that side, yet unexpectedly found after Lin Wang’s death, he rediscovered Ren Zhong’s talent and innocence.

"Ren Zhong is just a stronger male version of Ma Xiaoling! Hahahaha! Ma Dafu is useless, only his daughter is somewhat capable. Now I have a capable person, it might not take two to three years, Ren Zhong could reach at least Fifth Level. There’s a saying, ’When fortune comes, even the universe cooperates!’

Yang Bingzhong unconsciously hummed a tune through his nose.

Yang Bingzhong stood up from his chair, stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked down at the bottom scavengers surrounding the Starfire Resources gate layers deep.

The irritation in his heart unknowingly eased a lot as if it was no big deal.

Ren Zhong squatted halfway up the mountainside.

A grand convoy was swiftly passing by below.

He considered whether to proactively make contact with the other party.

But after careful deliberation, he decided to conceal his tracks.

Although that significant figure controlling the military enterprise in Chongyi County was also just a Fourth Level Citizen, their background was even larger than Yang Bingzhong’s, and they could not be provoked lightly.

If the eyes of that person did not make contact with anyone from Starfire Town, at least before the investigation came, they wouldn’t remember the cast aside Ju Qingmeng in Starfire Town.

In a place where hierarchical power structures were extremely entrenched like Source Star, even being noticed by an important person could drastically twist the fate of those at the bottom.

Two minutes after the convoy passed by, Wang Zhaofu arrived as expected.

The armed escort vehicle clunked to a stop halfway up the mountain, and Fatty Wang jumped out of the car with a puzzled look on his face, "Brother Ren, didn’t you say you’d wait for us near the valley entrance? Why the change of place? Hey, where are the others?"

Ren Zhong grinned, "All dead."

Fatty Wang took a sharp breath, "How did they die?"

Ren Zhong laughed again, "I killed them."

Fatty Wang’s eyes widened, his mouth gaping.

He was utterly baffled.

After hesitating for a while, Fatty Wang gritted his teeth and said, "Although I don’t know what you’ve done. But I must remind you, Lin Wang was Yang Bingzhong’s trusted follower. Forget it, let’s not talk for now, get in the car, I’ll take you to the Qi Mountain wastelander tribe to hide. Wait for Starfire Resources to move, then avoid this storm before making any decisions."

Ren Zhong shook his head, "No need, Brother Wang, now I am Mr. Yang’s trusted follower."

"Huh?"

Fatty Wang was at a loss.

He was very puzzled.

The situation was completely off-script from what the two had previously discussed!
