The two sat down on a bench to the side.
"Boss Mo, long time no see."
They had known each other for three years. He often came over for meals and frequently helped the Sun team.
He used to be the third-in-command of Hope Base. Had he been promoted now?
Mo Tianran nodded. "You disappeared three years ago, and I looked for you for a long time without success."
"How are you doing now?"
The young woman's entire face was covered by a mask, so Mo Tianran couldn't see her expression.
Was it joy? Or surprise?
"I'm doing well, how about you?"
Mo Tianran smiled. "I'm doing alright. The second-in-command was removed due to his nephew's incident.
Now, I'm in charge of internal security at Hope Base, and the Leader is responsible for base affairs."
"Leader Liu has retired and asked me to send you his regards."
Xu Qian smiled. "That's great, please send him my regards too."
Guan Weiyun and Mo Tianran were both very responsible individuals. With them around, Hope Base would surely be able to achieve what it did in her previous life.
Mo Tianran did not ask about Mei Yuebai and Guan Weiyun, as that was her private matter.
They chatted casually for a while and then parted ways.
Xu Qian felt a wave of emotion. So, apart from those men,
apart from the Sun team, and apart from Hope Base, there were still people who genuinely cared about her.
"Sister Qian, you know Boss Mo too?"
Lu Yang was genuinely curious about her identity now. She knew the Leader, and she knew Boss Mo too?
These were leaders of Hope Base.
Xu Qian patted his shoulder and said faintly, "Don't be curious about things you shouldn't be. If you knew the truth, your jaw would drop."
Lu Yang's eyes darted around. He was perceptive and knew not to pry further.
Being socially awkward, he was good at observing people's expressions and tones.
He would never interject inappropriately.
"Shall we take on some five-star missions today?"
Lu Yang was enthusiastic, eager for a big undertaking.
Xu Qian's words extinguished his ardor.
"After we finish yesterday's five-star mission, I have other things to attend to. I'll do missions with you again when I have time."
Lu Yang felt wronged. They had only done missions for two days, and just as they were getting familiar and excited, it was over?
"What do you need to do? Can I help?"
After yesterday's two five-star missions, his points were temporarily sufficient. What he craved was the thrill of fighting mutated beasts with Sister Qian, something he had never experienced before.
Xu Qian glanced at him faintly. Lu Yang was capable, and one of the Ten Strongest. Keeping him around wouldn't be bad.
Moreover, anyone who could compete for the Ten Strongest was definitely not a bad person.
The Ten Strongest were basically powerhouses from various large bases, undoubtedly qualified in terms of character and abilities.
It would also be a chance to increase their friendship level.
Xu Qian pondered for a moment and said, "I've been tasked by the Leader to destroy some bases. If you're willing to go, we can go together."
Lu Yang's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed loudly, "Really?"
He, of all people, could help the Leader with his tasks!
"Of course."
"Sister Qian, let's go quickly then!"
He was already impatient!
This time, Xu Qian drove an insulation car. The insulation car was a gift from the system and was more intelligent than ordinary cars.
It could connect to the map and had assisted driving. Once the route was set, it would drive automatically. It was also collision-resistant and could identify what it could and couldn't hit.
It was perfect for someone like her who didn't want to drive.
After a while, Lu Yang noticed a jeep following them.
"Sister Qian, is someone following us?"
"Yes, they are with us. They will come out to help us in critical moments."
Lu Yang's eyes brightened even more. Were they sent by the Leader?
They must be very powerful!
Xu Qian raised an eyebrow upon hearing his thoughts. It seemed Lu Yang was a fan of Guan Weiyun.
She opened the live map to check. The Yu Corporation headquarters was indeed in G City, but she only intended to keep the headquarters and destroy everything else.
