At the same time, in the abandoned factory that was originally used by David to hold meetings with several other team members he found.
From the outside, the factory building still looks dilapidated and covered with weeds and waste, but inside it has been completely renovated.
The holes in the walls were repaired, the potholes on the ground were smoothed, and the piles of broken machines disappeared.
The exposed circuits were rearranged and fixed, and bright bulbs were replaced on the top. In a modified Crystal Core generator, a white Crystal Core was emitting light, and was then converted into electrical energy, bringing light to the place.
The huge space has been isolated into several different places, including a conference room with tables, chairs, filing cabinets, and drawing boards, a lounge with sofas facing the bar and snack cabinets, the Fridge, a spacious training room with exercise equipment, a bathroom, a medical room, a kitchen, a warehouse, and a monitoring room.
It seems that this place has been transformed from an abandoned factory into a qualified secret base.
In the conference room, the tall and thin young man Harold, the black boy with thick lips Jack, and the man in suits and ties with face Xiaobai Corey were arguing with David about something.
"Jack, why don't you go to Heaven Ascension Battlefield to find Dragon Guard for sparring? Haven't you always wanted to learn how Dragon Guard became a thunder giant?"
"Harold, you said before that you wanted to recruit people to join us, but now even though they gave us a lot of money and helped us renovate the base, no one has come. This is too strange. Shouldn't you explain it?"
"And you Corey, I felt something was wrong with you before. Your face is extremely pale, and the surrounding areas of your body are colder than other places. It's now like this. Shouldn't you explain it to us?"
David frowned and pointed out what was wrong with the three of them one by one, with a serious tone.
After the auction, David found that his team members were behaving strangely, always glancing at him, as if they wanted to say something but dared not say it.
In fact, David also noticed something was wrong with several people during this period. Not to mention other things, Harold alone was able to attract a large amount of financial support for them, but he did not tell them who supported it. He said he wanted to recruit people to join, but he kept making excuses to delay the action, saying that the time had not come yet.
The same goes for the other two, both of whom gave him the feeling that he was hiding something.
Today, he felt that we should have a direct and honest talk.
Harold looked at the other two people who were silent. Thinking of what happened during this period, he felt that it was time for a showdown. So not only did he not explain, but he also stared at David with a somewhat emotional expression.
"David, you also saw today's auction. Xian Zai consciously speeds up the speed at which we become stronger, and each auction item is stronger than the last."
"Hard weapons, sturdy and convenient battle clothes, mounts full of potential, and even fantasy things like Ultraman were created by immortals and distributed to the four worlds!"
"I wonder what incredible treasures the immortal will come up with later?"
Harold did not show off directly, but first talked about the auction items, and then he changed his tone. "There is also Crystal Core, this wonderful energy currency!"
"David... Do you still remember the agreement between Xian and you, asking you to form a team to find treasures in the universe, and then exchange them with him for resources that make us stronger?"
"Look at the auction, look at Crystal Core, is this still necessary?"
"It's better..."
"Not as good as what?" David interrupted Harold's words, his face looked a little ugly, and he stared at him fiercely.
Doesn't he know these principles?
He totally knows!
He had already thought of this when something like Crystal Core appeared. He is a smart man!
However, the team has been formed, investment has been made, and the base has been renovated. Can we just give up?
He could only comfort himself that Xian must have his own thoughts and must not have forgotten the agreement with him!
I have to say that David thought too much. Li Ge indeed forgot about it. He made a random move and then turned around and forgot about it. If Li Ge hadn't recalled it now, maybe David would have been able to keep deceiving himself!
Jack and Corey also looked at Harold, wanting to hear what he would say.
Although they knew each other when they were young, they went their separate ways later, and then they were called together by David after a long absence due to immortal reasons.
But their experiences in their growing up years have already given them their own secrets.
Not only David, they also felt that their partners were hiding something.
Corey's pale face looked even more strange under the light, and his thin purple lips were even more eye-catching. His hands were gently folded, with a proper smile on his face.
"Oh? Harold, are you finally ready to confess?"
Jack unexpectedly looked at Corey who interrupted, and couldn't help but ask, "Corey, do you know anything?"
"Jack, you should have noticed during this period of time, except for David, the three of us have our own secrets."
David frowned, what do you mean everyone has secrets except him? Doesn't this mean that he is simple and has no scheming intentions?
Of course Corey saw David's unhappiness, Harold's calmness, and Jack's surprise, but this did not prevent him from speaking his mind.
"David, and you, haven't you always been curious about the changes in me?"
"Yes, as you may think, this is not entirely caused by the power I obtained from Nine Heavens!"
Corey's eyes swept over the faces of the three people, and suddenly his lips lifted, and the two canine teeth lengthened and became sharp at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He pointed at his mouth, and his eyes glowed red. "Now, it's nothing to tell you. I was accidentally bitten in high school and turned into a vampire. However, I turned into the rare Daywalker, and I controlled the power of ice stimulated by the water element ability obtained by Nine Heavens!"
"Wow--!"
Everyone stood up subconsciously. After all, vampires are synonymous with evil. However, seeing the helpless look in Corey's joking eyes, they slowly sat down again.
"Ha...!"
Harold sighed, "Since Corey is so direct, I won't hide it from you!"
"Actually... I have now inherited my family's property... a subordinate unit of Hydra!"
"I paid for the renovation of the base, and the manpower I mentioned I could recruit is actually my subordinates!"
"This is also the reason why no one has come. I don't want to reveal my identity too early!"
David was shocked, good guy, a Daywalker vampire, the heir of a subordinate unit of Hydra, what kind of strange ingredients are there in his team?
He was just surprised, but not afraid. The power given to him by the immortal gave him the confidence to face all challenges.
However, the infamous Hydra and vampire identity still made his brows twist into knots.
However, he did not say anything. Instead, he moved his gaze to Jack and gestured with his eyes. The meaning was obvious - what is your hidden identity?
The black boy Jack licked his thick lips, looked at Harold, then at Corey, and finally stopped at the face of David who was staring at him, and said dryly, "I am Inhuman!"
