A chance encounter with Luo Feng

Jiangnan Base City is one of the six major base cities in Huaxia, and it is extremely wealthy. Within its city limits stands an 88-story skyscraper. 🍟♣ ♝☮

The building's facade features the prominent letters "HR," representing the HR Alliance.

Outside the gate, there is a beautiful plaza and a large fountain. Around the plaza, thousands of soldiers with live ammunition patrol, preventing unauthorized personnel from entering.

Some people can only watch from the outside; they'll never be qualified to enter.

At this moment, a handsome man stood in front of the HR Alliance skyscraper.

He was none other than Qian Ye.

Qian Ye glanced at the HR Alliance Skyscraper, smiled slightly, and thought it was indeed as magnificent as described in the original book.

Ta-da-da~

Suddenly, footsteps came from beside him.

Qian Ye turned around and saw three people. He immediately recognized one of them as Luo Feng, the Chosen One of the Planes.

The other two, needless to say, are Zhang Ke and Chen Gu, members of the Huo Chui Squad.

The three of them came to the HR Alliance, apparently to sell things to the HR Alliance.

Qian Ye smiled and walked inside.

However, there were fully armed guards at the entrance, all with real guns and ammunition.

To make things easier, Qian Ye disappeared through the doorway in a flash.

The next moment, he was already inside the hall.

The lobby on the first floor of the HR Alliance was tall and spacious, with a floor so shiny you could see your reflection. (69shux. com - performance venue)

The ceiling, chandeliers, and decorations are all top-of-the-line.

Qian Ye walked inside, looking around. According to the original novel of Swallowed Star, Xu Xin was working at the bar of this building at this time.

I immediately scanned the area with my Divine Eye and sure enough, there was a bar in the corner of the lobby.

So they went over there.

Once inside, a neatly dressed waiter immediately came to greet us.

Qian Ye sat down on a sofa, and a waiter brought him drinks.

He picked up his glass, took a sip, glanced around the bar, and finally fixed his gaze on the bar counter.

At that moment, a young woman dressed in a white shirt and black suit trousers was seen changing shifts with another staff member.

Qian Ye smiled. This girl was none other than Xu Xin.

However, Xu Xin has not yet seen him.

Ta-da-da~

Just then, three other people came in and sat down on the sofa next to Qian Ye.

Qian Ye glanced at the three people; they were Luo Feng, Zhang Ke, and Chen Gu, whom he had met at the door.

He smiled but didn't say anything.

The main characters arrived.

When Luo Feng looked up, he suddenly saw that the staff member in front of the bar was Xu Xin. Xu Xin was also looking in that direction, and the two recognized each other when their eyes met.

"Xu Xin!"

"Luo Feng!"

When Xu Xin saw Luo Feng, she immediately went up to greet him. After all, she and Luo Feng were in the same class in the first year of high school, and she would occasionally turn around and see Luo Feng staring at her back. After a few times, she naturally understood what Luo Feng meant. (-_-) (-_-)

They just didn't say it outright.

"Luo Feng, what are you doing here?"

"I need to take care of something," Luo Feng said with a smile.

Xu Xin nodded.

Luo Feng: "Xu Xin, do you work here?"

"Well, I'd say it's an internship."

Cough cough cough~

Just as Luo Feng and Xu Xin were talking, a few dry coughs came from the seats next to them.

The two looked at him together. Luo Feng didn't recognize him, so he didn't pay much attention, only thinking that he was too handsome.

Xu Xin glanced at him and immediately froze on the spot. She immediately recognized that this person was Qian Ye, whom she had only met once before. Qian Ye had only attended Class 3 for one day that day.

She had never forgotten Qian Ye's figure, and recognized him as soon as she saw him. "Qian Ye, what are you doing here? Did you come to see me?"

Qian Ye: "..."

"I just came here for a drink, but it's such a coincidence, Xu Xin, to meet you here again. What a coincidence!"

Fate!

When Xu Xin heard Qian Ye mention the word "fate," her heart skipped a beat. She felt that Qian Ye was hinting at something. "Hmm... Qian Ye, we two are truly destined for each other."

"Hey? Luo Feng, do you know her?" Chen Gu suddenly asked Luo Feng.

Luo Feng nodded. "She... Xu Xin, my classmate."

"I see." Chen Gu nodded, feeling that Luo Feng looked at Xu Xin differently.

Zhang Ke smiled but didn't say anything.

Some things can't be said face to face.

Otherwise, you'll become disliked.

As Xu Xin spoke, she slowly moved closer, her face blushing shyly, making her even more radiant. "Qian Ye, I have an event to attend in a few days, so I need to go out."

"Where to?" Qian Ye took a sip of his drink, waiting for Xu Xin's answer.

Luo Feng had been listening to Xu Xin speak, and upon hearing this, he also focused his attention on her.

"Wilderness."

wilderness?

Qian Ye pondered for a moment. According to the original book of Swallowed Star, the entire world now, except for the human base, is in a state of flux.

All uninhabited areas outside of bases are referred to as wilderness.

Wilderness is a synonym for a forbidden zone where human survivors die.

The wilderness is teeming with all sorts of monsters, including monster pigs, monster cats, hordes of monster rats, and even Nine-Headed Dragon monster.

Furthermore, these monsters are both treacherous and eerie.

Similarly, in addition to animals, plants have also evolved, becoming terrifyingly so.

There are giant man-eating flowers, poisonous blossoms, man-eating vines, large branches that bind people, and tree roots that can sprout from the ground.

Even more terrifying, the hidden creatures lurk in lakes, rivers, and seas.

The ocean is especially terrifying.

"Then what are you doing in the wilderness?" Qian Ye pressed.

This is also what Luo Feng wanted to ask.

He also thought that Qian Ye and Xu Xin were just ordinary friends, so he didn't give up on her hopes.

Xu Xin hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's like this, the HR Alliance will soon be sending a volunteer medical team to the wilderness to collect monster gene samples. And I'm on the list."

Qian Ye nodded, looking on with an "I see" expression. He thought to himself, "These volunteer teams are conducted under the protection of a small group of martial artists; otherwise, they would be in grave danger."

Of course, even with a martial arts squad protecting them, the volunteer medical team still went at great Life risk.

"But Xu Xin, the wilderness is teeming with monsters. Wouldn't it be too dangerous for an unarmed girl like you to go there?"

Luo Feng, who was standing to the side, nodded in agreement. "Yes, Xu Xin, the wilderness is so dangerous, you'd better be careful."

It means to think things through before acting, and to consider things carefully before proceeding.

Xu Xin looked at Luo Feng, then at Qian Ye: "It's very dangerous, but it's a mission, and I have to go. Although it's voluntary, I joined willingly; no one forced me."

"I feel this mission is very meaningful to me, especially since I'm not going alone, but with a medical team and a martial arts team accompanying us to protect us."

"Oh." Qian Ye nodded. According to the original plot of Swallowed Star, the medical volunteer team and martial arts escort team that Xu Xin joined in the HR Alliance organization were all wiped out by monsters in the wilderness, leaving only Xu Xin alive.

Later, Luo Feng saved her.
