Registering a Squad(4)–Peak Squad

"Hehe… Are you kidding me, or are you here for fun? You stepped forward after I have already killed him, and said that it's not allowed to kill in the base, but where were you when they attacked me successively? Self-defense was regarded as innocent before the doomsday, how did it become a felony right now?"

Yun Che sneered, and his words were full of ridicule. If others didn't provoke him, he would not take the initiative to provoke others. He did give them a chance at first. It was the middle-aged woman who was arrogant and unreasonable. She wanted to bully him by the authority of her superfunction. He couldn't just await his doom when others bullied him.

Zheng Xiangyang was very skillful in using his thunder superfunction. But Yun Che happened to be more skillful. Otherwise Zheng's first blow would have killed him directly. Zheng deserved the current result, for he attempted to kill someone more powerful than himself. The most important thing was that Zheng and his mother were never kind-hearted. They were the kind of people who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. If you let them go today, you would suffer endlessly in the future. To be kind to the enemy was to be cruel to oneself, which was a lesson he had learned in his previous life. He would never do anything in this life that would regret himself.

"You … killing is killing, no one can break the rules of the base."

The sergeant didn't expect him to be glib. Being infuriated, he raised his right hand, signaling to the soldiers behind him to surge up, but…

"Hmm… What's going on? I can't breathe…"

"Ah … Help, help …"

"I don't feel well… hmm …"

"Bump…"

The previous weird scene reappeared. Reduced to tears, a dozen soldiers clenched their collars, fell to the ground and writhed painfully. Several people who had already experienced this kind of thing once unconsciously backed away, their eyes were full of fear, while other onlookers were still doubtful, for they couldn't figure out what was going on.

"Pa!"

"Tell me! What have you done?"

The only officer who was intact suddenly took out his pistol, slipped the safety catch into place, and aimed at Yun Che.

"Are you kidding me? They all fell down before they even touched me. Why do you think it was me? You can't just blame good guys randomly even though you're a righteous soldier, right?"

Narrowing his eyes, Yun Che had a doubt crossing his mind all of a sudden, and he deliberately ridiculed that soldier to a greater extent. Zhou Zeyu, who had been watching the show, handed Little Fatty Chen to Lu Haixuan and walked towards them with his long legs: "Yo, a soldier is bullying others! Although the distance between my Brother Che and them is not like the distance between sky and earth, but they were surely not that close! How can he suddenly knock them down? Brother, don't tell me that is because of his superfunction, I know the superfunction can attack in a long range, but everyone knows that Brother Che has thunder superfunction. We all know that his was not activated, so how can he achieve that? Please don't point your gun at me, if you accidentally fall down, I will be the scapegoat!"

Zhou Zeyu's irony almost made the sergeant pull the trigger. The crowd all covered their mouths and laughed. Since the beginning of the doomsday, the soldiers had been arrogant, and these people were all resentful but didn't dare to go against them. They were delighted to see someone irritate these soldiers.

"Fucking nonsense! When you fought against Xiang Yang squad, the same thing happened to everyone except Zheng Xiangyang. Who else could have done that?"

The sergeant was simmering with rage. One of his hands was holding the gun tightly, and the other was pointing at Xiangyang Squad before he pointed at the soldiers who were able to breathe normally. However, Yun Che was waiting for his words: "You have been here for a while, otherwise how could you be so clear about how so many of them had bullied me? But I couldn't help wondering, when that twat and her son shamelessly snatched my child's lollipop and tried to kill me, why didn't you show up? Oh, maybe all of you were in this together from the beginning. Otherwise, why did you show up when I appeared to be a notch above them? Forgive me for my ignorance, but how did a second-level sergeant become a henchman of the Xiangyang Squad? Back when I lived in the rural area, I often heard radio broadcasters say how soldiers of our country loyally served the country and people. Now it seems that either the broadcasters were fooling us, or our soldiers have corrupted."

He was just skeptical at the beginning, so he deliberately stimulated the sergeant with a more sarcastic tone. He did not expect that sergeant would be stupid enough to reveal the truth. By Yun Che's character, how could he miss the chance to take revenge when he has it?

"Fuck, didn't the military announce that they won't meddle in issues of the squads? They really think that no one is competent except Xiangyang squad?"

"No wonder the Xiangyang squad can be ranked one of the top ten. Maybe that was a shady deal with the military!"

"Damn it, I have been unhappy about these bastards for a very long time …"

"Yes, the military and the Association must give us an explanation, otherwise we will unite all of the squads and go against the base."

"Fuck… Zombies outside are annoying enough. The military is still adding fuel to the flames. We mustn't let things slide. The military must give us a reasonable explanation."

Yun Che's words successfully provoked various squads. It had already been difficult to survive in the doomsday, any bias regarding the military might kill them. When it came to their own interests, they could no longer keep silent and look on. Yun Che, who caused all this, had already left with Zhou Zeyu.

"Go to register and use the word 'peak' you proposed."

Picking up the form and handing it to Zhou, Yun Che shot a piercing gaze, his lips compressed. The outstanding would always bear the brunt of attack. He originally intended to remain a low profile, and did not expect that he had to be in a high profile in the end, so he might as well take the chance and show them what high-profile meant!

"No problem."

Peak Squad! The name obviously fitted Zhou Zeyu's taste, so he ran to the counter without hesitation.

"The word 'peak' is good. We are in low-profile, but it does not mean that we allow others to bully us at will. After today, the Peak Squad will be famous throughout the base."

Holding Little Chen, Lu Haixuan stared straight at Yun Che. At the beginning, he also felt that "King" and "Peak" was too high-profile, but since they were cornered, they should just conform to the consensus and stop disguising their competence. At least there would be no one who dared to swim against the tide and provoke them in the future.

"Hehe… Being famous also means that we are being targeted, by various squads, the military, or even the institute. Now how do you feel, excited or scared?"

Holding the child with a smile, Yun Che talked with him while they were walking side by side. However, on the other side of the hall, things were already in chaos.

"What will the consequences be if we're targeted by them?"

Lu Haixuan shuddered, and his hands were clasped behind his head, looking unhibited.

"If we are targeted by other squads, no matter where we go, we will be treated as a 'national treasure', the absolute focus. If we are targeted by the military, which most people would find glorious, for only those who have the ability can be targeted by the military, from now on, there will be no freedom. We will be occupied with missions every day until we fail and lose our lives. As for the institute, I don't need to say anything else. To them, we're merely trial targets. Once we are caught, we will be strapped to the operating table all year round, observed from all angles day and night, and receive various operations, maybe even drained of blood."

The conversation between the two was full of jokes, but Lu Haixuan, who had been taken to the institute before, knew that Yun Che was telling the truth.

"I'm really scared, Chen Chen, are you?"

Looking up at the sky with a sigh, Lu Haixuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Little Chen. This child was actually stronger than any of them. As long as someone was the bad guy in his opinion, he would never be afraid to set himself against them. Sometimes Lu really admired his courage.

"I'm not afraid, uncle will protect Chen Chen and Uncle Lu."

Obviously, Little Chen trusted him with all his heart, and did not forget to include Lu Haixuan in Yun Che's range of protection.

"Oh … Uncle Lu doesn't need your uncle's protection. He will work harder to become stronger and protect you just like your uncle does."

Reaching out to pinch his plump little face, Lu Haixuan spoke lightly. No matter who was keeping an eye on them, all they needed to do was to keep surpassing themselves and become stronger. Brother Che was right. When one was so powerful that others didn't even dare to be jealous, no one would have the courage to touch him even if the whole world's targeting him. He didn't know if they could ever be that powerful, but he would work towards that goal and approach it to the greatest extent possible.

"Ok."

Little Chen resolutely echoed while blinking with absolute trust, he trusted Yun Che, as well as Lu Haixuan.

"Brother Che, it's done. Newly registered squads must complete at least one task to finish the official registration process. I chose a task to collect one hundred zero-level zombies' nuclei, for which the reward is only 2.5 kilograms of rice, alas…."

Zhou Zeyu caught up with them from behind, and handed Yun Che the sign for the task. Collecting one hundred zero-level nuclei meant that they had to kill at least one hundred zero-level zombies, in exchange for just 2.5 kilograms of rice. Zhou Zeyu finally felt the happiness of having a full meal.

"We don't have enough nuclei ourselves, why did you take on this task?"

Yun Che could not help rolling his eyes, he could not stand giving a crystal nucleus away, let alone a hundred! Zhou was really a wastrel, one hundred crystal nuclei were enough for Cheng for over half a day.

"It is because that we are going to the provincial capital soon! I have weighed the pros and cons, the task of collecting a hundred crystal nuclei was the easiest. We can easily get them if I go out with Yehan and Haixuan tomorrow."

Zhou Zeyu explained innocently, how could he not know how important the crystal nucleus is to them?

"Forget it, you are never reliable."

Yun Che deliberately satirized Zhou although he knew it wasn't his fault. Zhou Zeyu felt wronged and he was about to find a little handkerchief and wipe his tears.

"Uncle, hang about, I wanna hang about."

Seeing them going to the parking place again, Little Chen wriggled uneasily, for he remember that uncle said that he would take him shopping today.

"I know, we are just going to fetch something in the car first."

"Oh."

Yun Che couldn't help laughing, and Little Chen had just obediently quieted down, his gaze fixed on passers-by on the street, his eyes lit up with excitement.
