My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

848 Reunion With an Old Acquaintance, a Higher Starting Point! Part 3

“Oh?”

Wang Quan scanned Su Mo up and down with a smile and continued to question him.

“Mr. Su, is the reason you’re coming to Heaven’s Origin to find the so-called treasure left behind by Almighty Su?”

According to the territory’s statics, at least 40% of the ordinary people of the wasteland have thought about pursuing the whereabouts of Almighty Su.

They firmly believed that the disappearance of Su Mo was not an accident and that he discovered a particular secret of the wasteland and chose to leave behind his treasure and ascend to a mightier world to fight higher beings.

The statistics of the territory were even more exaggerated.

Starting from Year 4 of the Doomsday Calendar, at least 70% of the newcomers in the territory joined because of “Almighty Su” after the news that Almighty Su established Heaven’s Origin spread.

Hearing that Su Mo’s reason for joining the territory was “Almighty Su,” he recalled recalling his terrifying combat skills displayed a few moments ago and thought about the information he hastily collected just now.

Wang Quan did not believe his excuse, and his guard was up.

However, he was caught off guard and surprised when Su Mo showed no respect despite his superior identity and simply shook his head lightly and stood up.

“Mr. Wang, let’s go see Feng...Sergeant Feng Long first and talk about the rest later.

“I think I should have the right to do so, right?”

After hearing Su Mo’s words, Wang Quan was stunned and a strange expression formed on his face.

Ultimately, he nodded and stood up under the astonished gazes of those around him.

“Okay, come with me!”

The two of them disappeared from the carriage.

The remaining few people finally reacted and stood up abruptly.

“What the f*ck just happened? Mr. Wang didn’t get angry with Mr. Su’s attitude?”

“Incredible! I almost had the impression that Mr. Su was the one with higher authority with his behavior just now!”

“What do you guys think? Mr. Su said he joined for Almighty Su. Do you think he joined the territory for the sake of Almighty Su’s treasure?”

“That doesn’t seem to be the case. When we shared information about Almighty Su, Youzong didn’t seem interested. I can tell that his not that kind of person.

“Moreover, Youzong has Xiaojuan with him. How can he be the kind of person that would take risks just for a treasure that is just a myth?”

Amid their discussions, many people did not realize that they subconsciously placed Su Mo in a higher position and even used honorifics while referring to him.

After passing Wang Quan’s tests and obtaining the right to see Feng Long, Su Mo believed that as long as he behaved normally, he would be offered tremendous opportunities that ordinary people would never achieve in their whole lifetime.

These were things that most people could only envy and never achieve.

Therefore, after seeing Huang Xiaojuan happily seated, many people had different ideas and quickly approached her in a friendly manner.

...

“Right ahead is Sergent Feng Long’s office, and if you need me... Never mind, let’s just go in together.”

Along the way, the two did not remain silent.

After realizing that Su Mo might not be as simple as he imagined, Wang Quan attempted to obtain information during the conversation several times.

Unfortunately, no matter what he said, the results would always differ from what he expected.

They were coming close to the office, and he was left with no other choice. The two continued to approach, one in the lead and one following behind. Then, Wang Quan knocked on the door.

“Come in!”

That same firm voice from before resounded on the other side of the door. Su Mo, who was standing behind, was a little surprised.

In Year 1 of the Doomsday Calender, Feng Long was still a young man who had just turned 25.

After entering the ruin, he had turned into a 33-year-old middle-aged man in a blink of an eye and was 4 to 5 years older than Su Mo’s current body.

Thinking about how the two would meet in such an abrupt way in an unfamiliar dimension, Su Mo felt a burst of emotions within him. Still, he forcibly suppressed the mixed feelings and followed Wang Quan into the room.

Bang!

The soundproof wooden door was shut, and the outside noise from the carriages was completely isolated.

Aside from the little clack that the train makes while moving, there were almost no other sounds.

Su Mo glanced around the room and found that the furnishing was simple.

There was a tea table for meeting guests that had a total of six stools.

On a two-meter-tall office desk, there were several guns that were disassembled.

Further inside the room was a bed with a wooden frame, just enough to accommodate Feng Long’s burly physique.

Feng Long, who had finished dealing with Infinite Prefecture, was sitting at the tea table, fiddling around with the teapots that emitted steam.

Seeing the two walk inside, he stretched out his hand and motioned them to sit across him.

“This is a special product of Heaven’s Origin that is produced from Flower Fruit Mountain. It’s called cloud mist tea and sells for two thousand exchange points per fifty grams.

“Come, try it!”

After dealing with the people from Infinite Prefecture, Feng Long was in a good mood and took out his treasured tea.

Hearing it was cloud mist tea, Wang Quan hurriedly sat down and gulped it down without worrying about whether he would burn himself.

“Woah! It’s so aromatic!”

Cloud mist tea was full of fruity and floral flavors.

As soon as it entered the mouth, it felt like hundreds of flavors mixing together like a mist, bursting inside the mouth.

After taking a sip, Su Mo could not help but repeatedly nod as he enjoyed the tea’s indescribable taste.

Feng Long observed Su Mo’s unflappable appearance and could not help but think even more highly of him.

“Su Youzong, you sure are one with some guts!

“I’ve already obtained information about you. However, you don’t have to worry. I’ve got a really strange personality and won’t look into the things you’ve done before, nor do I care about your previous identity. I don’t even care about the purpose you joined our territory.”

Feng Long casually threw the documents into the trash can and gulped down his tea with a domineering charisma.

“Listen, I’m giving you two options. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelenglish.net . Fɪre - novelenglish.net . bin

“The first is that you join me, and I’ll assign you a team of a hundred people. These people are the best of the best.

“As long as you follow me on the front-line battlefield, are willing to shed blood and sacrifice for the territory, have the strength and means to bravely fight off enemies and prioritize the territory’s interest, I’m confident that it will take you less than a year and a half to prove yourself.

“When the time comes, I’ll give you a new identity and position that will match your efforts!”

After throwing out an option that shocked Wang Quan, Feng Long glanced curiously at Su Mo’s face and grinned.

“The second is that you have a fight with me and show me your true strength.

“And if you’re capable of winning me, no, if you can make me recognize your strengths, I can promise you that I’ll help you unconditionally one time if you do something that goes against the territory’s interest or if you encounter some kind of trouble.

“Whether you choose a higher starting point or choose to fight to earn it, it’s up to you!”
