"Chen Gu, how long have you guys been here?"
As Luo Xia and the others were chatting, a deep voice suddenly rang out.
Following that, three tall figures loomed over Luo Xia and the other two sitting in the booth.
Luo Xia looked up and saw a burly man, as strong as a bear, with two black hammers on his back!
Beside this man were twin brothers, who looked very similar, both carrying shields and curved blades.
"Captain!"
Chen Gu and Zhang Ke stood up and called out.
Luo Xia also stood up and greeted, then introduced himself, "Captain! Hello, I'm Luo Xia!"
The captain of the Fire Hammer Squad was the burly man who looked like a bear. He sized Luo Xia up and down, a slight smile on his face.
"So, you're the one Wu Tong was talking about! Sixteen years old and already has the physical fitness of a high-level warrior! Not bad! Do you have a brother? Where is he?"
"Big brother! The captain's here!"
Luo Xia quickly called out to Luo Feng, who wasn't far away.
Luo Feng said a few words to Xu Xin, then jogged over and said to the captain, "Captain, I'm Luo Feng!"
"You're Luo Feng? You seem pretty good too! Very good. After entering the Wilderness Zone, the two of you should learn from Wei Tie and Wei Qing. I believe you'll quickly integrate into our squad!"
The captain said with a smile, then introduced, "I'm Gao Feng, and these two are Wei Tie and Wei Qing."
Luo Xia and Luo Feng quickly greeted them, "Brother Tie, Brother Qing."
Wei Tie looked at Luo Xia and asked with some friendliness, "I heard you're also a twin?"
Wei Qing asked, "Are you with Luo Feng?"
Luo Xia smiled and shook his head. "This is my elder brother. My twin brother doesn't have the talent to be a martial artist, so he's still in school."
Hearing this, Wei Qing smiled and said, "I almost forgot. At your age, you should be in high school!"
Because Luo Xia was also a twin, Wei Qing and Wei Tie treated him quite well.
Chen Gu, who was standing to the side, chuckled. "You guys probably don't know, but Xia Xia was also the national top scorer in this year's college entrance examination!"
"Really?"
Even Captain Gao Feng was surprised when he heard this.
"Of course, it's true!" Zhang Ke chimed in, looking at Luo Xia and smiling. "If this were before the Great Nirvana, he'd be much more popular than us martial artists!"
"Haha, I didn't expect Fire Hammer Squad to get a genius who's both a scholar and a martial artist!" Wei Tie said with a hearty laugh.
Gao Feng clapped his hands, smiling. "Yeah, not bad. Everyone, take a quick break, and then we're heading out!"
"Yes, Captain!"
The six of them, including Luo Xia and Luo Feng, nodded.
After more than twenty minutes, everyone finished their tea and drinks. Gao Feng stood up first and waved his hand. "Let's go, let's head to the Wilderness Zone!"
Everyone immediately put away their weapons and shields and walked towards the gate.
"Luo Feng!"
At that moment, a voice called out.
Luo Xia and the others turned their heads and saw Xu Xin running over, her chest rising and falling slightly, her face flushed.
Luo Feng looked at Xu Xin and asked, "Xu Xin, what's wrong?"
Xu Xin looked at Luo Feng, her face slightly red, and said, "I'll be starting university in a few days, but during university, I'll come here to be the manager on Saturdays and Sundays during the day! You must come then!"
Luo Feng heard this and smiled, nodding his head, "Okay, I'll definitely come!"
Xu Xin got her answer and gave a sweet and shy smile before turning and leaving.
Luo Xia chuckled along, turning to Luo Feng and asking, "Big brother, not bad, did you confess just now?"
Luo Feng, embarrassed, touched his nose, "Not yet."
"You haven't confessed yet, and the beauty is already coming onto you. That's the advantage of being young!"
The team leader, Gao Feng, said with a hearty laugh.
Luo Feng could only offer a slight smile in response.
"Let's go!"
"Get in the car!"
The seven members of the Fire Hammer Squad boarded the HR Alliance's designated vehicle and headed straight for the train station.
They would transfer there, leaving Jiangnan Base City behind, and journey to the Wilderness Zone, which was occupied by monsters!
Hundreds of miles north of Jiangnan Base City, there was a Military District encampment.
Boom...
The train slowly came to a stop at the Military District station.
A group of fully armed warriors disembarked, numbering over twenty people.
These twenty-odd warriors naturally split into four teams.
"Luo Feng, Luo Xia, warriors usually come to Military District encampments to resupply during monster hunts," Chen Gu, the deputy team leader, explained to the Luo Xia and Luo Feng brothers, as there were newcomers in the team. He was sharing some daily experiences of warriors.
Chen Gu pointed to a towering metal tower, fifty to sixty meters high, and asked Luo Xia and Luo Feng, "Do you know why there's such a tall tower in the Military District?"
Luo Feng guessed, "To observe the surrounding environment?"
Chen Gu chuckled, saying, "That's just one of its functions. Actually, the most important use of the tower is to guide every warrior in the Wilderness Zone."
"When you see a shining tower in the Wilderness Zone, you'll know that at the tower's location, there's a Military District that can provide you with shelter and supplies."
"So this lighthouse also symbolizes lighting the way home for us martial artists."
Luo Xia and Luo Feng nodded.
They followed the others, continuing to walk forward.
The martial artist supply base was inside the Military District, a series of quiet small buildings with a very pleasant environment.
"Fire Hammer Squad, you'll be staying and resting in E6."
An officer from the supply base handed Gao Feng a key, then patted his shoulder and asked with a smile:
"Old Gao, how long are you planning to hunt this time? If you get any good stuff, feel free to sell it to us at the HR Alliance, I'll definitely give you a good price."
These soldiers, although wearing military uniforms, were service personnel from various organizations. Some were from the Limit Martial Arts School, and others from the Thunderbolt Martial Arts School… The one talking to Gao Feng was from the HR Alliance.
They provided basic services to martial artists and also purchased valuable monster materials.
Gao Feng laughed and said to the officer, "Sure, we'll see about that later. Prepare lunch for us first!"
After saying goodbye to the officer, the Fire Hammer Squad walked towards the building E6. Soon, they arrived at the place.
Gao Feng opened the door with a key.
Chen Gu said to Luo Xia and Luo Feng, "Rest now if you want to. We'll officially head to the Wilderness Zone tonight."
Luo Feng was puzzled and asked, "Brother Chen, why don't we leave during the day? Isn't the Wilderness Zone more dangerous at night?"
Zhang Ke, who was already lying on the sofa, chuckled and said:
"It's late August, the hottest time of the year. Carrying hundreds of kilograms of stuff on the road in this heat...it could kill you."
Chen Gu continued, "So... although the Wilderness Zone is more dangerous at night, martial artists all choose to set off in the evening."
Luo Feng nodded, feeling a bit embarrassed.
So that's how it is.
