"Ah, if I had known we’d be released in such a grand manner, I would have shown off more in front of Morris,"
Lu Hao, who didn’t want to show off, felt helpless. Why did he always feel like Morris was targeting him with the camera?
As the video played in segments, excitement increasingly surged among the people.
Xius couldn’t help but look towards the members of Heart Talk Team standing not far away. He began to understand why the people of Huaxia’s B city were so wary of the Heart Talk Team.
The crowd boiled over again when Morris started playing footage of zombie cockroaches being incinerated in the formation.
How could there be so many!
Qiao signaled for everyone to calm down, then he began explaining:
"These locations aren’t in a city nor are they cockroach nests, but rather on an ordinary road. It’s where the Heart Talk Team used Huaxia’s ancient mystical secret techniques to attract all the nearby zombie cockroaches, also ensuring areas outside of the cockroach nests could be thoroughly cleaned,"
After hearing Qiao’s explanation, everyone at the scene was stunned. Did the other places in Country Y have so many zombie cockroaches apart from the cockroach nests and the major cities overrun by them?
But thankfully, Qiao invited the Heart Talk Team from Huaxia!
"Please allow me to express our gratitude right now. You are the great heroes of our Country Y,"
Next to the Heart Talk Team, a man from Country Y said excitedly and then, adhering to his country’s highest etiquette, he prostrated himself.
Soon, one after another, people from Country Y started kneeling before Su Jin and the others.
Su Jin slowly moved behind Lu Hao. She really didn’t want to deal with this kind of scene!!!
"Lin Xiuyuan, your turn,"
Lu Hao also stiffly pushed Lin Xiuyuan forward. He wanted to show off, didn’t he?
Lin Xiuyuan staggered but steadied himself, then immediately stepped forward with a Long Aotian-like demeanor to help up the person at the front, saying:
"Huaxia and Country Y have been friendly neighbors for a long time. We are both survivors in the Apocalypse and aiding each other is only natural. You don’t have to be so formal. For the continuation of humanity and a brighter future, we are also very happy to help everyone. May the friendship between our two nations last forever! Brother Qiao, would you mind translating that?"
Qiao had never realized just how hidden the talents in Heart Talk Team were, capable of such speech. When he reluctantly translated Lin Xiuyuan’s words, some people in the crowd even started to cry.
"Humanity will not perish, long live the friendship between Country Y and Huaxia!"
"Humanity will not perish, long live the friendship between Country Y and Huaxia!"
Elder Russell watched the scene with a smile, while Xius and Mo Fei were somewhat grinding their teeth.
Talking about the continuation of humanity, the lasting friendship? As if they didn’t come for the Crystal Cores.
As night fell, the lights at the Country Y base continued to burn bright, and many people were excitedly discussing the Heart Talk Team who had exterminated the zombie cockroaches. Even though it was time to sleep, groups of Country Y people still gathered by the roadside, excitedly talking back and forth.
"I heard that after the Heart Talk Team crossed the river by ferry, they immediately killed more than a dozen Mutated Crocodiles, the biggest one was several meters long,"
"Really? Who told you that?"
"Of course, the people in the canteen. And the Heart Talk Team generously gave all the Mutated Crocodiles to Qiao. There were a lot of people who saw Morris taking out the Mutated Crocodiles from the Space,"
"They are simply amazing, and that mutated moss is magical, too,"
On the second floor of a certain mansion, Mo Fei, annoyed, pulled the curtains shut and walked over to Xius saying, "Chieftain Xius, we might have to change our plan."
Originally, they had planned to imprison the Heart Talk Team under any pretense after they had completed their mission at the base, but now the reputation and prestige of the Heart Talk Team seemed to have overshadowed that of the Nickle Family overnight.
They could no longer just find an excuse to capture those people.
Moreover... that Fire Element man’s special ability was indeed formidable.
"Don’t worry, we’ll find a way,"
Xius, on the other hand, had calmed down, Those held up high are the easiest to fall, aren’t they?
What the two didn’t know was that in Elder Russell’s room, Qiao was also reporting in detail the incidents they had encountered in recent days.
Qiao asked in surprise, upon revealing Xius and Mo Fei’s plans, only to find out Elder Russell had known about it all along.
"I knew their intentions from the beginning,"
Elder Russell nodded.
If Elder Russell knew from the beginning, then why did he let him invite the Heart Talk Team to Y country, wasn’t that sending sheep into the tiger’s mouth?
However, Elder Russell just smiled and said, "Child, who do you think now is the sheep, and who is the tiger?"
Qiao figured something out, then widened his eyes as if Elder Russell intended to...
"Qiao, I have told you before that Xius is not suitable to be the chieftain of the Nickle Family. It might have been fine before the apocalypse, but now every action of the Nickle Family affects the fate of the entire Y country. If the Heart Talk Team hadn’t come, how long do you think our Y country would have lasted?"
"A year? Half a year? No, maybe just two more months, just two months!"
The more Russell spoke, the more agitated he became, as if he had foreseen the fate of Y country and suddenly became despondent.
Qiao also lowered his head, knowing that all Elder Russell was speaking the truth, a realization he had come to during his days out.
"Yet that child Xius, he’s still contemplating the same power struggles his uncle taught him before the apocalypse. As an elder of the Nickle Family, I won’t allow him to keep making mistakes. Qiao, would you join me to be the one who saves the Nickle Family?"
Elder Russell suddenly asked Qiao.
Upon hearing this, Qiao chuckled and asked:
"Elder Russell, do you really think the Nickle Family can be saved? I think it can’t."
The Nickle Family is already unsuited for this apocalypse; in fact, it should have been eliminated long ago.
If we talk about saving anything, it should be the people of Y country!"
Qiao’s response shocked Russell, not because of the fate of the Nickle Family, but because of Qiao’s insights.
"Qiao, I want to know why you came to me to talk about these things today. Don’t hide anything, child, I will always support you,"
Elder Russell approached Qiao encouraging him to continue.
"Elder, I want the Heart Talk Team to return splendidly, and I want to transform the Y country base just like the S city base. But before these things, the current system of the Nickle Family must be completely dismantled,"
Qiao answered firmly.
