Chapter 61 The Fiery Base Commander Gets a Beating; Born from Your Father's Kidney Stones
The newcomer moved extremely quickly, and with a "slap," he delivered a powerful blow to the face of the Fire Base commander.
Everyone watched as he and his chair were sent flying by the slap, followed by a series of loud slaps.
"Su Ming, I handed the base over to you, and this is how you manage it? Miss Lu is such a good person, and you couldn't even keep her. You still have the nerve to talk back to me? I'll beat you to death."
Su Xu had wanted to beat up his younger brother ever since he started following Lu Fei. If it weren't for this idiot, he wouldn't have to work for someone else.
Look at them now, they just stand there with a Gatling gun glowing blue, a freshly roasted chicken leg, and people even rush to deliver their houses to them.
If Lu Fei were at the Blazing Fire Base, he wouldn't even know how high his status would be now.
Now he's in a real predicament. Not only does he have to work for Lu Fei, but he also has no face to talk about those brilliant and promising talents at the Blazing Fire Base.
It's true what they say: a bad soldier is just one bad soldier, but a bad general makes a bad army.
The root of the problem still lies with Su Ming. The more Su Xu thought about it, the angrier he became. He grabbed Su Ming's face and slapped him twice more.
Su Ming was initially stunned, but after recognizing his own brother, he screamed in pain and dared not shout anymore, quickly begging for mercy.
"Big brother, I was wrong. I wasn't at the base at the time, and I really didn't know that such a terrible thing had happened. If I had been there, I wouldn't have let Miss Lu Fei leave like that."
Hearing Su Ming's obvious perfunctory attitude, Lu Fei walked over and pouted, feeling wronged.
"Yes, I reckon if you were here, you would definitely lock me up and squeeze out every last bit of value from me."
I've seen the base commander many times when I went to collect supplies before. I even mustered up the courage to ask you for help, but you said it was a family matter and you couldn't help me.
Even those idiots from the Lu family stole my supplies, and you just laughed it off. "I know, this world is just a giant Edinburgh, and a little girl like me can't compare to the two ounces of meat in someone else's crotch..."
Lu Fei's words made Su Xu's expression even worse, and Su Ming, seeing his older brother's dark face, knew that trouble was brewing.
Sure enough, the next second, fists the size of sandbags rained down on him, making him cry out in pain.
The people from the Blazing Fire Base tried to break up the fight, but as soon as they got there, metal spikes sprouted from Su Xu's body, making him look like a future warrior. Who would dare to step forward?
In the end, Su Ming was beaten by Su Xu for five minutes before Lu Fei stopped him. Otherwise, the base chief of the Blazing Fire Base would probably have been the first one to be carried away today.
“Those idiots in the Lu family are a handful. If you keep trying to ally with them, you'll be the one who suffers in the end.”
After finishing his fight, Su Xu left a final message before returning to Lu Fei's side.
Lu Fei thought Su Xu would return to the embrace of the Blazing Fire Base and no longer follow her, but she was quite surprised by his choice.
In fact, Su Xu did have this plan at first, thinking he would go back when he had the chance.
But after seeing Lu Fei's outstanding cohesion and purification abilities these days, coupled with the revitalized state of the Hongjian base, he knew that this girl was no ordinary person.
Especially the occasional roast chicken, and those snacks that money can't buy—Lu Fei just casually sells a single crystal core...
Su Xu could tell the difference between a full meal and a regular meal, which is why he felt his younger brother was so stupid; otherwise, the Blazing Fire Base would be rising to prominence by now.
"Oh dear, what's going on that requires such a big fuss? Let's all keep things peaceful and make money together. I think most people have arrived, so why don't we announce the competition rules first?"
The base chief of Tengshe Base is a smiling tiger. He seems friendly when he speaks, but behind the scenes he does heinous and dirty things.
As the base leaders of Tiangang and Tengshe took their seats, all the base leaders sat in their respective positions, except for the one at Hongjian Base, which remained empty.
"By the way, why hasn't our base commander arrived yet?"
Lu Fei had always wanted to meet their base commander, but unfortunately, he had gone out to make money and hadn't returned yet.
"He's probably been taken away by someone who owes him a favor. There's nothing we can do about it; our Hongjian base is poor."
Gu Changge sighed, thinking back to the base where they were eating coarse food and wild vegetables just a few months ago. Their base commander had a really tough life.
"I think the meeting is about to start. Can our base do without a base commander? Should Brother Gu take his place?"
Lu Fei had just finished whispering with Gu Changge when she felt that many people's eyes were on her, which made her look around in confusion.
Before she could react, Gu Changge pulled her down onto the chair.
"From now on, you are the one in charge of the Hongjian base, and we will obey your orders in everything."
The people from Hongjian Base behind him nodded happily, and even Luo Feiyu and his group echoed their sentiments.
"Pfft, it's obvious that your Hongjian base is really short of people. You actually picked a woman to lead it. Do you really think that just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can sit in this chair?"
If you don't respect the game, get out.
The commander of the Free Base looked a bit like a praying mantis. When he looked at Lu Fei, his eyes were full of contempt. It was clear that he was an extremely chauvinistic man who looked down on women.
"Women should go back to have children and serve men. It's disgraceful for them to be out in public all day."
Hearing this, Lu Fei was so angry she laughed.
"Damn, the Qing Dynasty has been gone for hundreds of years, how come there are still people with cerebellar tendencies? What's wrong with women? Isn't your mother a woman? Isn't your wife a woman?"
"I hate people like you the most! Did you spring from your dad's kidney stones?"
Lu Fei rolled her eyes. She didn't have a good impression of people who looked like praying mantises, especially since Huo Mingyuan and his group also had their own base, which made her even more annoyed.
"You... arrogant!"
The mantis-faced man seemed surprised that Lu Fei dared to confront him like that, and immediately slapped the back of his chair, giving orders to the people behind him.
"What are you all standing there for? Get this arrogant brat out of here right now!"
The base personnel who had arrived earlier quickly obeyed the order and rushed forward, but after taking only a few steps, they saw people from Cangyu Base and Phoenix Base stand up and block Lu Fei's way.
Cao Zhengyu, standing at over 1.9 meters tall, was a towering figure wherever he went. With a stretch of his long leg and a hook, he pushed Lu Fei's chair behind him.
With the aura of someone ready to conquer the battlefield, just those amber eyes alone could send shivers down the spine of anyone who accidentally met their gaze.
"Let's see who dares to touch my eldest sister!"
Gu Changge's fiery red hair was particularly striking, and intense flames rose from her palms, raising the temperature of the entire rest area by several degrees. It was unimaginable how painful it would be if they touched someone.
With several level-five experts protecting her, Lu Fei relaxed in her chair, casually beckoning to the mantis with her index finger.
"You! Come here!!"
The mantis-faced man was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Although the Free Base had a large number of people, they were no match for Lu Fei's side in terms of combat strength. Helpless, he had no choice but to order his men to retreat.
"Hmph, I won't stoop to the level of an ignorant child, but esteemed base commanders, the base competition is of great significance and is a very serious matter. Such joking around is not allowed."
I suggest removing Hongjian Base from this competition. Raise your hand if you agree.
The Freedom Base's words received the support of Tengshe and Tiangang. The base commander of the Blazing Fire Base also wanted to secretly raise his hand, but he was frightened by Su Xu's glare and withdrew his hand.
Yin Sheng, who had been sitting leisurely, looked at the mantis-faced man with a smile.
“I suggest you don’t make any suggestions, because we won’t listen! Lu Fei is capable and has the courage, and we all support her sitting here.”
"But that's the position meant for the base commander. She's a woman, so it's not legitimate for her. I don't agree!"
The mantis-faced man seized on Lu Fei's identity, and the atmosphere instantly became extremely tense, as if a chaotic battle was about to break out at any moment.
"Who said her position is illegitimate?"
