Chapter 265 - : Put Up or Shut Up (1/2)
This G8-tier apt.i.tude user was regarded as Yang Ping’s confidant, Tian Miao. Moreover, this person had previously met Qin Feng before. He was none other than the helmsman that piloted the floating speedboat!
“What’s the matter?” Qin Feng asked when he saw the person, his voice sounded rather gentle. After all, they did go through a life and death situation together.
The man’s awe at Qin Feng could be seen from his gaze, as he hurriedly said, “Commander Yang can’t leave the front line, and has sent me in his stead to invite you to the battle there!”
Qin Feng let out a frosty laugh, not bothering to mask his expression.
Tian Miao’s heart did a backflip, being a confidant he knew quite a bit about interacting with people. When he saw Qin Feng’s expression he knew immediately that he was not happy to be called up.
“I don’t want to make this difficult for you. Make Yang Ping personally come here and tell this to me in person!” Qin Feng said coldly.
Tian Miao swallowed hard and nodded quickly, “Yes, yes!”
He quickly sent a message, sweat beading on his forehead.
By now, Qin Feng was almost done with his meal, casually wiping his mouth.
Meanwhile, Bai Li was having a great time chowing down as the chef was still trying to make better dishes and was serving them to her.
“Beep Beep!” Qin Feng’s communicator rang. When he saw who was calling, a casual smirk appeared on the corner of his mouth
“Commander Yang, what’s wrong?”
Seeing Qin Feng’s unworried expression only made Yang Ping even more anxious.
After a night of battling, he looked extremely haggard, as if his energy had dropped by a lot. This was not just the consequence of staying up late, it was because he had been overdrawing from his consciousness. His eyes had dark circles and had a gla.s.sy stare.
“Mayor Qin, the sea beast tide is here again!” Yang Ping said with urgency, “Come to the front line!”
Qin Feng only smiled.
“Isn’t that normal? Or were the sea beast tides you faced while I was on the shelter island weaker?”
Yang Ping was horrified. He had his own speculations but after Qin Feng spoke he was left in a shock.
The month of the sea beast tide was so peaceful in the earlier stages, could it have really been because Qin Feng was fighting hard against such a desperate crisis?
“Commander Yang, that sea extract you have was very useful. None of those sea beasts approached Sea City and only focused on Blackstone Fort. It’s a shame that the fort wasn’t as strong, otherwise it probably would have lasted until the end of the month of the sea beast tide!”
Yang Ping looked flushed all of a sudden, he felt a little bit guilty at that moment and even more afraid.
“Mayor Qin, what sea extract… What are you talking about? If you thought that it was useful then that’s good, it’s good that it was useful!”
Qin Feng’s expression remained the same, he knew that Yang Ping was hiding something and did not dare to admit it.
He continued to stay silent, taking a long sip of water which Yang Ping did not dare object against as he patiently tried to persuade Qin Feng into taking action.
“Mayor Qin, help us please! There’s really no other way and we’ve been fighting for a whole day now. Everyone’s tired!”
“Oh? I fought for ten days and I didn’t say I was tired. You are saying that you’re tired after just one day? Commander Yang, I think you’ve had it going much too easy and comfortable,” Qin Feng quickly retorted. “That’s it then! I’ll just take another day off and you and your boys out there can give it your best shot. Besides, I think I’ve done enough that’s worth getting a commission from Sea City. After all, no matter how powerful the ultra beasts are, wouldn’t Mayor Lei be able to handle it? Don’t think just because I’m some foreign apt.i.tude user that you’ll get to boss me around, telling me what to do!”
Yang Ping sputtered from the bitter taste in his mouth. If Lei Chen were here, he would not feel so nervous.
The key point was that Lei Chen was not here!
And now even Qin Feng knew, naturally based on Yang Ping’s expression.
It was normal for him to be absent. Qin Feng could recall a major event that involved the gathering of many D-tier apt.i.tude users from the Three Cities along the Sun as well as the distant Four Cities of the North Sea.
“Right, I’m gonna go take a nap or something. Good luck, Commander Yang!”
