Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 483 482. Let me show you how valuable the boss is
The feeling of working with a big company is actually not that good... Of course, I am talking about the vast majority of former pirates, wanderers, unknown mercenaries, etc.

Because of the restrictions on movement, everyone had to stay in an area and then take their work cards to the construction site to dig holes, move bricks, or do other things according to the requirements and plans.

The difference from begging for food in the desert is that the company will actually give you food instead of just throwing it away after use.

But if you just trust the company... the next step might be that you will be asked to do free renovations, and then you will have to take out a loan to go to work.

Overall, there is some enthusiasm for the current situation, but not much.

Then daytime came again, and Seifer unexpectedly discovered that due to the obstruction of the mountain on the way, neither the scorching wind and sand nor the sunshine seemed to have much impact on this well-located area, and the companies were making preparations in an orderly manner.

They erected long straight poles on the ground, then waited for the first round of foehn winds to pass and the temperature outside to gradually rise, while using manpower to continuously move various materials out of the vehicles.

Seifer stretched (pretending) and asked curiously what was going on?

At this moment, Dr. Mei suddenly walked into the main control: "I need to go out for a while, accompany me."

"Now? At this time? Aren't you afraid of getting roasted?"

"Just fill the suit with water and keep cooling it down. Come with me. You should be bored anyway."

After exchanging a look with Leica and reminding her to take a rest, Sefer could only shrug his shoulders - after all, she was also a VIP, so he had no choice but to listen to her.

The place we were going to was naturally the convoy where Ms. Jin Junmei was. To be honest, the oppressive feeling of seeing those huge vehicles slowly driving into the designated location was unforgettable.

The air gushing out from its engine cooling system even blew away all the sand on the ground, leaving only bare rock slabs. The huge tracks roughly crushed the rocks flat, and then stopped there, as if a city had suddenly appeared here.

Even if this thing doesn't fire, just staying there quietly is enough to suffocate people.

After thinking about it, Seifer decided not to change his appearance. He still went to the warehouse as a child of a poor family. As a result, when he got there, he saw Miss Nana sitting cross-legged on a pile of supply boxes.

"You're going out, right? I want to go out too!"

"We're going to negotiate with a very scary guy. If we act too relaxed there, we might end up in a reformatory."

Nana tilted her head with a smile and took off her detective-like hat: "But the conductor will protect me from being arrested, right?"

"...I can't guarantee that. To be honest, it might be safer to just capture Dr. Mei and use him as a hostage."

Dr. Mei, who was putting on protective clothing, suddenly turned around and said, "I'm still here. I hope that next time you say something like this, you can say it behind my back."

So Seifer turned his back to her and said to Miss Nana: "Anyway, if you encounter any problems, just yell and knock this guy down, and threaten her with the dagger I gave you."

"Oh, I see!"

Then Miss Nana jumped down, found a protective suit and started putting it on.

At this moment, Sefer suddenly turned around and saw a small head of Shengnai suddenly popping out from among a pile of supplies.

"... Let me guess, you want to go and take a look too?" He wanted to scratch his head but couldn't, so Seifer went over to take a look and found that Shengnai was dealing with a pile of medical waste.

She shook her head slightly, then suddenly chuckled and nodded. "If it's not too much trouble, I'd like to go over there as well... Well, I mainly want to discuss whether I can get some special medical supplies."

There are only four of us. If we want to have free meals there, we won't need a pair of chopsticks.

After the outside temperature stabilized and the hurricane temporarily subsided, the group entered the airlock.

With the whistling of the air, the temperature inside the airlock rose visibly, and even the inside of the protective suits could be felt to be getting hot. ...This mainly refers to Miss Nana and Shengnai. They squinted their eyes, a little uncomfortably, and looked at the world enshrouded by the huge projection.

It's so hot even without direct sunlight, so if it is exposed to it... is this dress really okay?
Dr. Mei walked silently in front, while Sefer followed with a gun for protection, waving to signal the two not to go too far away.

The four of them mixed in with the busy crowd, crossed the intersecting cordons of various companies, and headed towards the headquarters of the Phantom Mist Group under the watchful eyes of their temporary subordinates.

The smooth journey made these people more determined. They once again confirmed that their boss had connections with big companies and was a rich man who was about to seek revenge - their confidence was surging.

I even feel more energetic when working.

As for Sefer, the whole journey was smooth. When they arrived at the bottom of that... or rather that giant mobile base, they even had to lower a connecting step from above so that the group could slowly climb up.

As soon as he got up, someone came to greet him. The moment he saw that person, Seifer was delighted: "Hey, Captain Gaoshan, why are you here?"

The corporate mercenary, who was dressed in tightly wrapped equipment, looked at Cypher unexpectedly for a few seconds, but he didn't recognize Cypher, so he was a little confused.

"Who are you? Do you know me?"

'Gao Shan' T-3, who had worked with him for a period of time in the transformation agency, was stunned for a while and looked really confused. Considering that there was no need for disguise now, Seifer shrugged.

"Red crossbow arrow, do you remember it?"

"...Huh? Oh? Why did you change your gender?"

"This involves far-reaching issues. Don't worry about it for now. Why did you come here? Is the Transformation Agency's Node City stable?"

As if they were acquaintances, Gao Shan immediately pulled out a cigarette from his pocket. Seeing Seifer wave his hand, he put it in a hole in his helmet and said, "Stop talking. That place is so empty right now. All they do every day is patrol."

He took out his lighter as usual. Miss Nana, who was taking off her protective suit, suddenly opened her eyes wide and came forward to take a few looks without any hesitation.

Gao Shan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Seifer in disbelief. "This...big star, did you really kidnap her? I thought those rumors were fake, but now it turns out to be true."

"What rumors? Forget it, I'm not interested. The big star is indeed here with me. Don't ask for the specific reason - isn't it to lead the way? Lead the way."

Gao Shan shrugged, ignoring the 'No Smoking' sign on the wall, and led the way in front with a misty look. Miss Nana came over from behind, leaned on Seifer's shoulder and whispered in his ear.

"That person... is a senior I knew. I don't know where she went after she retired. So... is her surplus value being exploited like this?"

Seifer replied quietly, "It's not just her. I've seen other souvenirs too... Anyway, the entertainment company has vanished into thin air. I doubt it will be long before something like this appears again."

She nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly followed with a smile, almost skipping around as she looked left and right in the corridor.

As for Shengnai, who had been following quietly, he looked at the sign of the medical room thoughtfully and wrote it down.

After following Gao Shan for a long distance, Seifer thought he would take them to a meeting room, a military depot, or at least the main control center.

As a result, he led a group of people to the door of a cabin and stood there: "Okay, I'm not qualified to go in there, you can do whatever you want, I'll just stand guard at the door."

He said seriously, "Don't act rashly. The car is fully protected. Even if you are the famous Red Crossbow, you are not invulnerable, right?"

Maybe.
