"Black Kite is very likely to ambush us."
Shu Wei reminded.
"Donât you have any trust in your old man?"
Su Huanâs tone carried a hint of flippancy.
"Black Kite is not my fatherâs one-man show, and given his character, if keeping you would bring greater benefits, he would definitely do it."
"He wouldnât even care about his own daughter?"
"Children can be born again, but once power is lost, everything is gone."
Shu Weiâs tone was indifferent.
"Oh."
It seems the father-daughter relationship isnât that good, or perhaps they are just putting on a show for him.
Su Huan responded with a slight smile, "If thereâs no problem, then letâs adjourn the meeting."
Everyone was taken aback, and Hu Shuo hesitated, "If we decide to go, how many people does the conductor plan to bring? I need to prepare accordingly."
"How many people?" Su Huan thought carefully for a moment, "The whole train?"
Hu Shuo, "...The specific number of people entering the venue for negotiations, in case the negotiations fall through, so we can ensure a safe retreat for ourselves."
"Then I can just go by myself."
"No way, what would we do if they turn hostile?" He Jie sternly refused.
Hu Shuo and others also nodded slightly.
Su Huan put his feet on the table, arms crossed behind his head, and said calmly, "If I take you along, Iâm not confident we can all get out safely."
Everyone: "..."
"Ah geez, youâve managed to outdo us again."
He Jie angrily thumped the table.
Then he solemnly said, "But I absolutely disagree with you going alone. It has nothing to do with whether I can beat you or not; once the other side decides to turn against us, they will certainly find a way to restrain your abilities. If we bring more people, we can complement each otherâs abilities, like how Xiaoba can help you open metal, and Qu Hang can provide long-range suppression..."
Su Huan looked towards Shu Wei at his side, "Right now, Black Kite should have quite a few Tier Two, right?"
Shu Wei hesitated, "Before I set off, Black Kite had already explored several paths to stepping into Tier Two. They should have made progress by now, and itâs not the flawed Tier Two like Zhao Kuo."
Su Huan spread his hands, "Youâve seen the power of Tier Two, thereâs already a generational gap, going there would mean getting crushed, itâs meaningless."
"But itâs still not acceptable, at least take two people, thatâs my bottom line!"
He Jieâs eyebrows were furrowed deeply, but his voice was absolutely resolute.
Now the safety of his entire family is tied to the train, and even though he dislikes Su Huanâs explosive personality, without Su Huan, the train indeed wouldnât move.
On this train, although everyone has irreplaceable traits and stable emotions.
Up to now, no one thinks they can replace the conductor.
Acid rain, storms, terrifying mutant beasts, enigmatic major powers...
In this despairing era, only a strong and mad conductor like this can provide enough security.
Normal people couldnât manage this.
Normal people always have a limit that can be reached.
Without that mystery, there would be no anticipation.
But with Su Huan as the conductor, no matter what desperate situation arises, people always keep a sliver of hope inside.
Hope for what crazy thing heâll do to break the situation!
Even the usually tough He Jie is like this.
This sliver of hope surpasses strengthâa potent motivator.
Irreplaceable.
"Then who do you want me to take?"
Su Huan said indifferently.
He Jie paused, his gaze circling the crowd before finally landing on Giraffe and Bai Lu at the end.
"Take these two. Giraffeâs got a long neck and a big head, perfect for taking bullets, and the other fool fits too."
Giraffe rubbed his long neck, muttering curses under his breath.
There were a few good-natured laughs, lightening the serious atmosphere.
"Alright, letâs do that then. Iâll take Shu Wei, Giraffe, Bai Lu to negotiate, and the rest of you stand by. Meeting adjourned."
Seeing the undeniable smile on Su Huanâs face, the group was afraid the conductor would relapse, so they stopped advising.
They headed downstairs in small groups to eat.
Su Huan put his feet back on the table, looking up at the ceiling of the train.
His eyes were completely calm.
There was no sign of going mad.
Going to negotiate alone was something he had thought over carefully, even more seriously than facing the Steel Council.
Shu Weiâs father had met the military five years ago; he was directly involved.
Even if the other side doesnât bring up this negotiation, he will find a way to meet them.
Moreover, during this time, his strength has been rapidly increasing, even in his sleep, while yawning and eating.
Although some energy is wasted on those randomly generated skills, the main profession "Circulating Vortex" has increased by one tier on average.
The secondary profession "Fighting Master" has also been quickly filled, reaching the threshold of Tier One.
This skill generation from the Genetic Primordial isnât completely random; it compensates based on the existing professions, filling any shortcomings and directly bolstering the skills needed for career advancement.
Even so, the conditions for evolution of the Genetic Primordial can be said to be exceptionally favorable.
As long as one doesnât die, they are always growing.
Because of this, all of Su Huanâs skill levels and basic attributes are rapidly growing, forming a reasonably well-balanced barrel.
Even though the main profession hasnât reached its peak, Su Huanâs current strength is already the pinnacle of Tier Two.
An absolute powerhouse at this phase.
As for Tier Three, based on Lin Jinâs growth rate, they probably havenât reached it yet.
Although Su Huan doesnât know Lin Jinâs specific evolution timeline, during the first year of the apocalypse, Lin Jin hadnât reached Tier Three yet.
Calculating from the time Shu Wei, He Jie, and others got a head start, it has been about a year and a half so far.
