At ten o'clock in the evening, there were very few vehicles on the empty Coastal Highway.

Only the dim street lights on both sides quickly receded outside the car window.

After sending Zhou Xiumei, Wen Xin and Douzi home one by one, Fang Cheng drove back to Guanlan District.

It is not easy to update/please use/Bing search, quick reading su du gu. org/Read the latest chapters of more popular novels first!

The black Land Rover slowly drove into Haitian Garden and stopped in the exclusive parking space outside the Apartment building.

Fang Cheng took out the key, put Canvas Shoulder Bag on his back, pushed the door and got out of the car.

The evening breeze blows through the landscape green belt of the community, bringing in a few wisps of the fragrance of the sweet-scented osmanthus trees.

He followed the flat floor tiles and walked into the Main Hall, the first floor of Apartment Building.

Elevator Lobby has a bright ceiling light on.

Fang Cheng just approached, his eyes moved slightly.

A pushcart Wheelchair stopped in front of the closed elevator door, with a girl sitting on it.

She was wearing a simple white Dress, and her black Chang Fa hair hung straight to her waist.

Looking from the angle of Fang Cheng, you can clearly see her pure and beautiful profile.

But under the cold white light, her skin looked unhealthy and pale.

Fang Cheng walked to a place half a meter away from her and stood there, glanced at the elevator screen that showed going down, and waited patiently.

The girl noticed someone approaching and did not turn her head.

She looked quietly at the elevator door in front of her, with a sense of loneliness that had accumulated from being alone for a long time.

Her temperament is quiet and elegant, like a white autumn chrysanthemum blooming quietly at night.

Fang Cheng recognizes her, she is a neighbor who lives in the same building.

Not only that, when he sneaked into "Home of Morning Light" Orphanage and set up a trap to mislead Cheng Jiashu and Noah Organization, he also bumped into her once by chance.

Judging from the slight dew on the edge of her skirt, she probably just finished relaxing in the courtyard of the community and was preparing to go home.

"Ding--"

When the elevator reaches the first floor, the metal doors slide smoothly to both sides.

Fang Cheng stepped into the car first, then turned around and pressed his finger on the door-opening button that controlled Panel.

The girl grabbed the metal rims on both sides of Wheelchair with both hands, and with a little force, she slid smoothly into the elevator.

She stopped, raised her head, met Fang Cheng's gaze, and spoke softly:

"Thank you."

"It doesn't matter."

Fang Cheng smiled slightly and asked casually:

"Which floor are you going to?"

"Seventeenth floor."

Fang Cheng reached out and pressed the "17" button, and then lit up the 19th floor where he was.

The car door slowly closed.

It was very quiet in the small space, with only the subtle hum of the equipment operating.

Fang Cheng put his hands in his trouser pockets and stared calmly at the beating red numbers in front of him.

The girl quietly put her hands on her knees, lowered her eyes slightly, and looked at the reflection of the shiny metal wall.

She also seemed to recognize Fang Cheng.

Faced with this gentlemanly act, he opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say a few more words, but swallowed it back out of habit.

"Ding--"

When we reached the seventeenth floor, the elevator door opened in response.

The girl pushed Wheelchair silently and slowly drove out along the smooth metal seam.

Fang Cheng stood there, watching her back turn the corner of the corridor, and then raised her hand to press the door close button.

The elevator continued to move upward slowly.

This was just a small episode on the way home, but Fang Cheng felt something strange in his heart.

This girl's expression and eyebrows always made him feel that she looked very similar to someone in Memory.

After a while, the 19th floor was reached.

Fang Cheng Unscrew the door lock, push the door and step into the flat floor Apartment.

He casually hung his bag on the wrought iron hook in the foyer without pressing the light switch on the wall.

Just facing the darkness in the room, he walked through the entrance hall and walked into Living Room.

With his current eighty-eight-point spirit and all-round evolved physique, his eyes' ability to capture light has long been incomparable to that of humans.

Even in a completely dark room, the outlines of Inside the room's furnishings and furniture were clearly visible in his field of vision.

Fang Cheng walked forward and unbuttoned a few buttons on the collar of his shirt, thinking with a bit of self-deprecation in his heart.

This night vision ability alone can save him a lot of electricity bills every month.

Apartment is kept spotlessly clean, without any sloppy clutter.

He flattened the shirt he took off and hung it up on the coat rack, then straightened the slightly tilted pillow in the corner of the sofa.

Order is accustomed to maintaining a meticulous living environment, and he cannot tolerate any mess or deviation.

Fang Cheng walked to the kitchen bar, poured a glass of boiling water, and drank it in one gulp.

Suddenly, a strong feeling of hunger surged in my stomach.

The body's various functions Base Attribute are ten times higher than those of ordinary people. Although it brings great strength, everything has two sides.

With such a powerful body, the amount of calories it needs to metabolize every day is naturally staggering.

Although he had already found a food stall to have dinner before taking Wen Xin and Douzi to Television Station to participate in the show in the evening.

But this food intake is far from enough.

Now, his stomach is like a blast furnace with full power.

Enough fuel must be supplied every day to supply cell needs and maintain normal physiological functions.

If he doesn't eat for a long time, even if his strong body can hold on, his spirit and Willpower will definitely suffer severe torture.

If you are not careful, maybe like Zheng Hongxin said, like those Aberrant who turned into monsters, their sanity will collapse due to hunger and they will go completely crazy.

Fang Cheng certainly would not let himself fall into that low-level risk of losing control.

Then he opened the Freezer and glanced at the rations stored inside.

Several compartments are filled with whole pieces of Pork Chop bone, packaged snowflake beef rolls, several large bags of frozen dumplings, as well as various cooked foods and snacks.

But the most precious Mutated Beast meat has long been consumed.

Fang Cheng shook his head and thought to himself.

Speaking of the current feeling of unsatisfactory hunger, the main reason is that the food I usually eat is too low.

It seems that I have to go to Other Shore World in the future to buy some goods and come back.

Western Mountains Ancient Locust Village is temporarily restricted by the lack of Yin Qi, so it is temporarily impossible to enter.

But Space Passage in Yong'an Island Trench is relatively stable, so you can definitely try it.

He gathered his thoughts and quickly took out three large packages of frozen steaks and five large bags of Buckwheat Ramen.

The fire is lit and the hot water is boiling.

In less than ten minutes, a large pot of noodle soup covered with thick pieces of meat and fried eggs was brought to the table.

Fang Cheng pulled out the chair and sat down, picked up the chopsticks, and swept up the food that was enough for an ordinary person to eat for two days like a whale sucking water.

As the warm and filling carbohydrates and proteins fall into the abdomen, the burning sensation in the stomach subsides slightly.

He threw the dishes and chopsticks into the sink, washed them with clean water, and put them in their proper places.

Then he turned around and walked into the bathroom, turned up the water temperature and took a shower.

After washing away the sweat stains, Fang Cheng put on loose pajamas and walked into the bedroom.

The curtains are opened, and the Guanlan District city night view is in full view.

The buildings in the distance are scattered with scattered lights.

On the winding sea-ring highway, occasionally a few car taillights speed past.

He looked at the deep night and sea, thinking about tomorrow's work plan.

At this moment, the mobile phone thrown on the edge of the mattress suddenly vibrated.

The bell rang, breaking the silence in the room.

Fang Cheng walked over and picked up the phone and glanced at the caller ID.

It's Ma Donghe, long time no see.

Calling me at this time is definitely not just a small talk.

Fang Cheng pressed the answer button, switched the phone to hands-free, and threw it next to the pillow.

"Hey, A Cheng, I didn't disturb your rest, did I?"

Ma Donghe's rough and rich voice immediately came from the other end of the phone, and in the background you could still hear the whistling wind and the crisp snap of Metal Lighter's flip.

"I just got home and took a shower. Before I could lie down, I saw you calling me."

Fang Cheng sat on the bed and replied casually.

"Hiss--"

Ma Donghe seemed to be taking a puff of cigarette on the other end of the phone, with uncontrollable excitement in his tone:

"I wanted to send a message just now, but I couldn't figure out how to send a message, and I was afraid that you would miss it if you didn't look at your phone, so I just called you directly."

Fang Cheng heard this and asked with a smile:

"Is there anything important?"

"A good thing, a great thing!"

Ma Donghe finished smoking, took out a long breath, and then deliberately lowered his voice and spoke:

"Brother, I'm participating in Training Camp at Western Mountains Base this afternoon. As soon as the training ended, I found a deserted place to inform you."

"The senior management of Special Search Team has finally relented and plans to officially launch the large-scale exploration plan of "Other Shore World" this month!"

Fang Cheng's eyes moved, and he immediately remembered the information Cheng Jiashu told him in the stairwell that night.

Special Search Team found the new Ruin Entrance outside the Western Mountains, and like Military, it is extracting a large amount of the Yin Qi underground from Ancient Locust Village.

It seems that Cheng Jiashu's intelligence network is really powerful. As soon as it was revealed, Ma Donghe's Official Authorities policy was implemented.

"What kind of large-scale exploration method?"

Fang Cheng asked calmly.

"Didn't we just have to watch Military eat alone before? This time the situation has changed!"

Ma Donghe's voice couldn't help but become high-pitched, causing the speaker to buzz:

"Do you still remember the gang of robbers we met at Western Mountains Examination Site that night? You asked them to lead the way to the entrance of Ancient Ruins, and even ventured inside to take a trip to Other Shore World?"

"Remember."

Fang Cheng nodded slightly and waited for the next words.

Ma Donghe flicked the ashes of his cigarette and then said nonstop:

"Later, Special Search Team also discovered an abnormality, and locked the Ruin Entrance to the specific Coordinates, and created a relatively stable Space Passage in Western Mountains Base."

"But the area connected at the other end of the passage is ridiculously large and Danger is very large. It is full of high-level mutant creatures and unknown mysterious ruins. It is impossible to explore it with just a few Senior Investigator of Special Search Team."

"The superiors sent two groups of advance teams in. It is said that they encountered a tough situation and suffered considerable losses. Even Military's side also noticed Special Search Team's situation."

"Now that time is tight and the tasks are heavy, they are anxious and plan to hold an internal selection competition for the elite personnel of the entire Special Search Team department. They even intend to expand the scope to private Aberrant and major Chaebol to recruit a group of tough players who dare to fight and fight hard to form Joint Expedition Team, intending to win with numbers!"

When Ma Donghe said this, he deliberately put it off and took a deep breath:

"A Cheng, guess what Training Camp I am doing in the Western Mountains these days?"

Fang Cheng glanced at the ceiling and followed his words and replied:

"To select the elites who will join the Other Shore World expedition?"

"That's right!"

Ma Donghe laughed and his voice became louder involuntarily:

"You were not there, so you don't know how intense the scene was. All the top players from the Operations Department sects from all over the country came, and everyone was really ruthless in order to compete for places."

"The first level is cross-country with weights, and the second level goes directly to Actual Combat. Man, I faced a guy who was practicing Baji Fist. I punched him three times, caught a flaw, and knocked him out of the ring with Iron Mountain Shoulder Strike. I suddenly made it to the top 100 from the 2,000 people, and successfully got the official quota."

"The examiners looked at me with different eyes and praised me for my Horizontal Training!"

Fang Cheng After listening to his boast quietly, he praised in unison:

"Yes, with your foundation, it is expected that you will get the spot."

Ma Donghe smacked his lips and continued:

"Although the selection conditions are set quite high, as long as you can be selected, apart from the 50% of the resources you get after entering, you will hand over 50% to Official Authorities as the "ticket fee", and the rest will belong to you personally."

"According to the captain of our team, there is gold everywhere in there! Bring out any Otherworld flowers and plants, or scrap metal from the ruins, and you can sell them for sky-high prices on Black Market."

"The most important thing is that there is a lot of Mutated Beast meat with extremely high nutritional value."

Ma Donghe swallowed, his voice full of greed:

"By the way, it's the Mutated Beast meat you brought back that night. This stuff is very suitable for our Martial Artist replenishing Vitality and strengthening our bones. I told my old man about this two days ago, and he couldn't help drooling after hearing it, saying that this is a once-in-a-century opportunity."

He stopped and took another drag on his cigarette, then continued:

"A Cheng, your Martial Path cultivation level is so high now, what you lack most is a lot of nourishing Vitality food. My old man said that if you want to go further and reach the level of senior Li Guizhen, you even need to use various Natural Treasure to fortify your body."

"It's hard to find these things on earth, but if you go to Other Shore World, as long as you have the ability, the high-level Prey will take care of you!"

"When I heard the news, the first thing that popped into my mind was you. But due to the strict discipline above and the gag order, I could only hold back before. I was planning to catch some animal meat there and secretly bring some for you."

"But this time I heard the news that Special Search Team is preparing to relax the restrictions, so I called you immediately to inform you and prepare quickly. When the time comes, you can use your skills to pass Selection Exam, and we can go to Other Shore World to make a fortune together!"

Fang Cheng After listening to these heartfelt words, he couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart, and he slowly said:

"I don't think I need to participate in the selection."

"Ah?"

Ma Donghe was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and his mind couldn't turn around for a moment.

Fang Cheng chuckled and reminded:

"You seem to have forgotten that I belong to Medical Position. You Operations Department and Intelligence Department people are fighting and killing in Other Shore World. There will definitely be casualties. Don't you need professional medical staff to provide on-site first aid?"

"As the saying goes, food and grass must go before troops are deployed. Since the higher-ups have decided to form a large-scale Joint Expedition Team, they will definitely come to our Logistics Department to recruit people before taking action."

Fang Cheng analyzed it clearly and logically.

"That's right!"

Ma Donghe slapped his thigh suddenly and made a crisp sound:

"Why didn't I think of this? A Cheng, you are smart. You don't have to compete with those muscle guys. You only need to register your name, and you will most likely be directly recruited without having to lead the team. It's much easier to get this spot than us."

After some compliments, Ma Donghe couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, and then asked:

"By the way, what did that world look like last time you went in? Is it similar to the alien planet in the movie?"
