Chapter 130: Crystal Weapons

The task handover location was a large warehouse.

Inside the warehouse was a group of soldiers and five individuals who appeared to be senior officers.

One of the five was Xuanyuan Yong, representing the Xuanyuan family, and the rest were Chu Min, Wei Changfeng, Qin Muxian, and Fang Wen, representing their respective factions.

Seeing this, Qin Wu shook her head.

’These five families still won’t allow other forces to get involved with base leadership.’ She thought, but what could she do?

At the moment, she and Mo Chenxuan were ordinary survivors.

Until they gained a foothold within the base leadership, all they could do was watch as the five major forces continued to monopolise the base.

“Did you say twenty million litres?” Wei Changfeng asked, his eyes narrowed into slits.

“That’s correct. We want to hand over twenty million litres of fuel.” Qin Wu said.

At the same time, she waved her hand, and all manner of containers flew out.

Gas cylinders, gasoline tanks, oil barrels, ….

When they saw this, the five leaders exchanged a glance, but each had a thoughtful expression.

However, none said anything.

Instead, they asked the soldiers to confirm the amount, and after the quantity was verified, they turned to Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu.

“The task reward is one thousand litres for every ten thousand litres of fuel. You can take back two million litres.” Chu Ming said, and Qin Wu nodded before collecting several containers.

“In addition to fuel, this task also rewards crystal weapons.” Qin Muxian stated, but looked uncomfortable.

However, she soon sighed and continued.

“The base currently has two types of crystal weapons. The first kind is a crystal gun, and the other is a crystal sniper rifle.”

Hearing this, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu exchanged a glance.

When they left for the mission, the base had only developed a crystal gun.

Unexpectedly, in less than a month, the research institute had managed to develop a crystal sniper rifle.

’It’s much earlier than the previous life.’ Qin Wu thought.

Crystal weapons used crystal cores as ammunition.

From what Qin Wu remembered, the earliest types of crystal guns could kill level one and two zombies.

Similarly, crystal sniper rifles could achieve the same feat, but their range was longer than crystal guns.

Because of this, crystal guns were most effective in close combat, while crystal sniper rifles were best for wall defence.

“What’s the exchange rate for crystal guns and crystal sniper rifles?” Qin Wu asked.

“One crystal gun for every one hundred thousand litres of fuel and one crystal sniper rifle for every five hundred thousand litres.”

Qin Wu nodded when she heard this.

This was the price she expected and felt a little relieved that the base didn’t try to cheat them.

[Wu’er…] Mo Chenxuan transmitted through his spiritual ability.

[What do you think?] Qin Wu asked.

[One hundred and fifty crystal guns and ten crystal sniper rifles.]

[Okay.] Qin Wu nodded before speaking.

“We want to exchange one hundred and fifty crystal guns and ten crystal sniper rifles.” She said.

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Yong, Wei Changfeng, Qin Muxian, Chu Ming, and Fang Wen looked at each other.

When the refinery task was first issued, the base leadership didn’t expect one team would bring back twenty million litres of fuel.

Because of this, they weren’t worried that the crystal weapon stash would not keep up with demand.

Unexpectedly, expectations did not keep up with reality.

Now, the five couldn’t help but feel awkward when they heard the reward.

In the end, Fang Wen bit the bullet and looked at the two with a solemn expectation.

“You have completed the mission, and the base should naturally give you the promised reward. However, crystal weapons are not easy to manufacture.” The man said and quickly continued.

“We can only spare fifty crystal guns and three crystal sniper rifles for the time being. Do you want to consider exchanging for other supplies or…”

“That won’t be necessary.” Mo Chenxuan said, and when everyone turned to him, he continued.

“Our team is not in a hurry and can afford to wait for more weapons to be manufactured. Let’s sign an IOU.”

The five leaders didn’t argue.

Soon after, the seven signed a contract detailing the number of weapons and the delivery day.

Additionally, before leaving the warehouse, Qin Wu collected the available weapons and received a task point card.

“Chenxuan, do you think our team will become an S-rank team after submitting the points card?” Qin Wu asked as they drove towards villa eight.

“Maybe.” Mo Chenxuan nodded.

In addition to the main task, he and Qin Wu completed several subtasks.

Added together, he felt the points would be enough to advance team Legends from tier A to tier S.

However, they had been away for almost one month and didn’t know if the rules had changed.

Most importantly, the base was a complex battlefield.

Although team Legends was the most powerful, it lacked a strong background.

As a result, the base leadership may not allow team Legends to rise above team Overlord and other teams with powerful backgrounds.

“We have only just returned and should be enjoying a few days of rest. However, I feel that a storm is coming.” Qin Wu muttered, slumping on the passenger seat.

“Mmh.” Mo Chenxuan nodded.

Over the past month, he and Qin Wu sensed a lot of people watching them.

On one hand, they were trying to discover the identity of the mutated water ability user, and on the other, they were trying to assess Team Legend’s true strength.

However, team Legends had long been prepared.

Excluding a few instances when they were acting alone, the teammates never used their true strength.

Most importantly, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu didn’t reveal flaws with regard to the mutated water ability and purified crystal cores.

Because of this, team Overlord and other teams that had been planning to deal with team Legends had no choice but to change their plans.

After all, purified crystal cores were the basis for revolution.

Until they had control of them, other teams did not dare to recklessly deal with Team Legends.
