Chapter 602: The New F City Base Leader

Chapter 602: Chapter 602: The New F City Base Leader

"Hmph, Wu Xingye? What does he know? Does he even understand the current situation in the base? I’m afraid if he takes over, it won’t be long before he’s ousted again,"

Chen Liang, who was formerly under Liu Jianyuan, scoffed.

Logically, he was the closest to the position of Base Leader now, but since he had no Special Ability, no one considered him a contender after Liu Jianyuan’s death, even though he believed he understood the base’s situation best.

"Is Deputy Director Chen talking about the matter of supplies?"

Xiong Jingfu asked from the side.

"How can you maintain a base without supplies? The base’s supplies were maintained by the Han Family’s support, and now that Liu Jianyuan is dead, probably only I am still in contact with the B City Han Family,"

Chen Liang said, glancing around the meeting room at the various expressions of those assembled.

"But if we keep going down the same path, the base will have to continue collecting Mutated Crystal Nuclei just like before,"

Wen Zhixin raised his hand and said, although he was previously under Liu Jianyuan, he did not agree with Liu Jianyuan’s methods.

He had visited other bases, and no base had Special Ability Users’ levels as low as in F City. If nothing changed, this base would sooner or later become a vassal to others.

"What if we go and ask for Wu Xingye’s opinion? Doesn’t his True Martial Sect have Long Aotian?"

A quiet voice emerged, coming from Guo You, the base’s logistical manager.

Guo You didn’t really care who became Base Leader, as it was unlikely ever to be him.

In the end, a whole day of discussion concluded with no clear decision on who should take up the role of Base Leader.

Meanwhile, the supplies at Long Aotian’s place were selling exceptionally well, a team of Special Ability Users had just bought supplies worth 100,000 Crystal Cores; Long Aotian coolly handled the transaction right in front of them, even rounding off the quantities to give them a wholesale price, and threw in a few extra tens of kilograms of food.

Such generous actions greatly shocked everyone, and the voice for True Martial Sect grew even stronger.

The team that received the extra food even put up banners in the base, declaring their unconditional support for Wu Xingye to become the Base Leader.

Others signed a petition, strongly requesting the election of Wu Xingye, even many from the base’s guard army signed it.

The base’s management was shocked, could public opinion really reach this extent?

If it were someone else from outside the True Martial Sect chosen as Base Leader, would they not drown under everyone’s spittle? No, no, they surely would become the kind of rat everyone wants to stone.

Thus, for a while, no one had the courage to campaign for Base Leader.

Wu Xingye, unexpectedly approached by the base’s management, felt even more troubled. What was this about becoming a Base Leader? He completely lacked the energy to manage the base, struggling enough with just managing the True Martial Sect.

"Captain Wu, this... If you don’t do it, perhaps there is someone suitable within the True Martial Sect?"

Wen Zhixin, who came to persuade, asked.

Wu Xingye was taken aback. Yes, there certainly were many promising young people in the True Martial Sect; how had he not considered this?

So that very evening, right after they’d returned from killing zombies outside the base, Bu Hong and others were bewilderingly pulled into an emergency meeting by Wu Xingye.

"Bu Hong, what do you think?"

Wu Xingye had gotten used to asking his top disciple for advice first; he always provided the most prudent solutions.

"I suggest we ask Long Aotian about his future plans,"

Bu Hong said.

"Why?"

Why ask Long Aotian?

"Is Brother concerned about the issue of base supplies?"

Wan Anran had also realized the reason; indeed, that was it, they from True Martial Sect had been purely elected by the people within the base, and the reason for their election was simple—it was because of the supplies.

If they lost the support of Long Aotian in the future and combined it with the current state of the base revealed today by Wen Zhixin, they would surely find it challenging to even take up the position of the Base Leader.

"Bu Hong is right, we should head over tomorrow morning,"

Wu Xingye had also come to understand that if someone inside the True Martial Sect could firmly hold the position of Base Leader, he believed that the current situation at the F city base would definitely change. Previously, he could only look at the state of the base and sigh anxiously, but now, with this opportunity in front of him, why wouldn’t he give it a push?

...

Wu Xingye and Bu Hong were discussing this matter together with Lin Xiuyuan and Lu Hao.

"Our plans for the future?"

Lin Xiuyuan didn’t understand what the people who had come early in the morning intended to do; did they want to take back the small western-style house?

"Here’s the thing, the base now suggests we from the True Martial Sect nominate someone suitable to run for the Base Leader position, so we came to ask Brother Long’s opinion first,"

Bu Hong explained truthfully.

"You guys becoming the Base Leader? That’s great, go for it,"

Lin Xiuyuan was very happy after hearing this; it meant they would know someone where they used to sell their materials.

"We can ensure to regularly come and provide materials,"

Lu Hao suddenly said, while Lin Xiuyuan still didn’t understand their intentions, but now he did.

Indeed, a gleam of surprise appeared in Bu Hong’s eyes: "You mean..."

"We originally travel around to collect materials primarily; if the F city base could continuously provide convenience, we can come back periodically to provide materials for purchases,"

Lu Hao said.

"Yeah, that’s right, a lot of people here really like me, and I naturally like this base too,"

Lin Xiuyuan also caught on and added.

"With your words, we are reassured; please also be assured that if someone from our True Martial Sect is elected Base Leader, no matter when you come here, we will treat you as honored guests,"

Wu Xingye assured.

"We believe in Uncle Wu,"

Lu Hao said, smiling.

Xiao Jin would surely be very happy to hear this news.

"Now that we all are so familiar, I still don’t know the name of this big brother, may I ask how should I address you?"

Wu Xingye asked Lu Hao.

...

"Him? His name is Chen Daming, he’s also from our village,"

This time, Lin Xiuyuan was the quicker to respond.

"So it’s Brother Chen,"

Bu Hong, having understood, thought to himself how strangely they named people in Long Aotian’s village.

Lu Hao nodded awkwardly, having forgotten the name Chen Daming; thankfully, Lin Xiuyuan still remembered it...

Soon, the internal candidates for the Base Leader of the True Martial Sect were also finalized: Bu Hong.

Wu Xingye was even preparing to hold a large base meeting according to Wen Zhixin’s demands to explain that Bu Hong was their True Martial Sect’s first main disciple, and the reason behind his decision.

Bu Hong did not decline, though he knew he might face many difficulties in the future, but once Wu Xingye had chosen him, a surge of impulse ignited in his heart. He wanted to put some of the ideas he had in the base into practice, he wanted to transform the current F city base into a completely different base from before.
