Starting Cultivation in Wasteland

"Is Baike'er called Buick?" Qu Jianlei pondered for a moment and shook his head.

"Wait for Johnny to wake up. It's his decision, why should someone else bear the consequences?"

The B-level warrior hesitated and still stated, "But there's no signal from the wristwatch. Could it be warning us?"

Qu Jianlei's face darkened, pointing to his room door, "Then why don't you go wake Johnny up?"

The B-level warrior hesitated for a moment, eventually shook his head, "Forget it, but if there's no contact for over twelve hours, I'll report it."

Over twelve hours of no contact... Is it the Cyan Blade Commerce Association's wartime mechanism? Qu Jianlei pondered and nodded.

"Alright, but before reporting, you'd better contact Johnny first, to avoid being resented."

Then he sighed heavily, "Damn it, it's already like this, making each of them a headache. I'll go find Kerry."

Kerry is another A-level in the Cyan Blade Commerce Association, awakened with the Fire Attribute.

However, in this park, there are one to two more A-levels, and the cleaner hasn't provided any information.

The B-level warrior hesitated, "But now... Is it too late?"

"It's just after nine," Qu Jianlei frowned, "It's said to be extraordinary times!"

He knew where Kerry lived, too lazy to say more, and left directly.

The B-level warrior looked at his back, appearing slightly strange, but ultimately said nothing.

Qu Jianlei arrived outside Kerry's room, raised his hand to knock a few times, but there was no response.

So he raised his hand again and heavily knocked twice.

A wave of thought transmitted from the room, followed by a furious shout, "In the middle of the night... Do you have a death wish? Buick, have you gone mad?"

This woman's Spiritual Power isn't bad! Qu Jianlei snorted coldly, "Karens can't be contacted right now... Open the door!"

After a rustling sound, the door opened, and a chubby woman appeared before him.

This kind of figure is quite rare among Superpower Warriors; it's already said in earlier text that every fat person in the Imperial is... trash stocks.

The woman wearing only a short-sleeved nightgown exposed a large amount of pale, flabby flesh, glaring at him fiercely.

"Can you damn well wait until daylight to find me?"

Qu Jianlei released his Spiritual Perception for a moment, finding there was a man in the bedroom... even two men!

Quite a player indeed. He withdrew his perception and said indifferently, "Then why don't you continue?"

"Continue my ass!" Kerry cursed angrily, "Speak, what do you want?"

Qu Jianlei motioned to the bedroom with his mouth, "Get those two guys out of here; it's extraordinary times, don't indulge too much!"

"None of your damn business!" Kerry replied impatiently, "Say what you need to do; once done, I want to continue!"

"Let's talk inside!" Qu Jianlei pushed open the door and walked in, closing the door behind him.

Following that, a few slight sounds came from inside, then silence.

Five or six minutes later, Qu Jianlei opened the door and went out, speaking loudly.

"Then sleep. If something happens tomorrow, it's your responsibility; I won't care!"

He had to be polite to Kerry a little, because in her room, there were actually two Storage Talismans!

This meant that this woman was the key figure in the association, more important than Johnny and Baike'er.

At this moment, others presumably heard his voice, but no one came out to check.

Within the Cyan Blade Commerce Association, despite the unity, quarrels and bickering were common, and everyone believed it was genuine nature.

Why would others interfere in the disputes between two A-level big shots?

Qu Jianlei pondered for a moment and turned to walk out of the small building, heading towards another building.

The other two A-levels lived there; now he only sensed one A-level's aura.

The other one is unknown whether absent or concealing their aura.

As he entered the building gate, the guarding Modified Warrior spoke up, "Master Buick, what brings you here?"

"I have some business," Qu Jianlei also didn't care to explain more and headed straight to the A-level's room.

The Modified Warrior frowned with doubt, thinking, isn't it necessary for me to notify?

Qu Jianlei reached the room door, raised his hand to knock twice, vaguely feeling something seem off.

A low voice came from the room, "Has something happened?"

"A little issue..." Qu Jianlei's words halted halfway, suddenly realizing the problem.

According to the cleaner's provided information, there should be over forty members of the commerce association here.

But from his calculations, the number is already over a hundred, initially thought to be local hired personnel.

However, it's nighttime now... the number still surpasses a hundred which means the extras aren't employees.

Before he could finish speaking, suddenly alarms blared, and a loud shout was heard from the room, "Enemy attack!"

Only then did Qu Jianlei realize that the phrase "Has something happened" wasn't a question, but a secret code.

Thus, the Modified Warrior's previous reaction was well explained — he shouldn't have knocked rashly on the door.

Knocking without notifying caused the other's vigilance; the secret code was given but was improperly answered.

However, this was not the time for post-battle summaries. Qu Jianlei unhesitatingly launched a spiritual attack.

The A-level Ice Attribute inside was about to break the window to escape. As a result, the person did rush out the window but was heavily crashed down outside.

As Qu Jianlei launched the spiritual attack, he also directly smashed open the door, just in time to see the figure fly out.

His body flickered, he arrived beside the target, raised a hand and slashed down, conveniently collecting the head and also searched the corpse.

Although he had almost captured the high-end combat power here in one fell swoop, the remaining hundred or so were not something that could be wiped out in a short time.

He wasn't very sure if the remaining A-level was present, and there were quite a few light and heavy weapons in the courtyard.

The most crucial point was that this place was highly valued by the Jiuchuan Government. Once the alarm sounded, the Special City Guard would arrive within five minutes!

Qu Jianlei had large-scale destructive techniques, but it was hard to determine the effect,

and if he really used them, that would also be seen as an undisguised provocation by the Jiuchuan Government.

Killing quietly was something the government could cover up a bit, but large-scale techniques were impossible to hide, and the government cared about face!

So, searching the corpse was his last resort.

The facts proved that he was not wrong at all. In the next moment, countless lights lit up, illuminating the entire courtyard as bright as day.

Luckily, Qu Jianlei had chosen to retreat in time. Everyone only saw a black shadow flash, and the intruder escaped into the rain and fog.

"He impersonated Lord Buick!" someone exclaimed, "Quickly lock onto him."

Qu Jianlei did not know how the other party planned to lock onto him.

After rushing out of the courtyard, he quickly flickered twice and then switched to the Water Attribute, finally escaping into the rain and fog.

Three minutes later, the Special City Guard arrived. Their speed was fast, but ultimately they were still too late.

Qu Jianlei took advantage of the rain and fog to sprint out for about ten kilometers before breathing a sigh of relief and pulling out a motorcycle to speed away.

Huahua seriously suggested, "I should have taken over the system completely just now. I guarantee the alarm couldn't even be sent out."

"I don't want to draw attention to you," Qu Jianlei replied with a sigh.

"We should conduct a thorough search, and then go to the other building. Ugh, I was still too careless."

But to be honest, this carelessness was unavoidable. He impersonated, killed A-levels, with such means, who would be willing not to use it?

Huahua thought for a moment and asked, "How was the gain tonight?"

Qu Jianlei answered without hesitation, "Except for Kerry, they were all paupers, the last one the poorest."

Originally, he thought that Ice Attribute A-level authority must be high, maybe there would be something good, but who knew that guy turned out to be so poor.

"I found what they meant by locking!" Huahua exclaimed excitedly, "Nano-level scent and colorization."

Qu Jianlei was taken aback, "This thing... can it be effective on me?"

"It has to be unexpected to work," Huahua casually replied, "Just be careful in the future."

"Pay attention to gathering information from various parties," Qu Jianlei casually instructed, "Also, contact Camille."

Two hours later, the motorcycle passed by a large forest area, the famous Pearl Forest Sea scenic spot in Jiuchuan City.

A place densely covered with water networks, and yet there are hilly groups, mountains and waters reflecting each other, like pearls scattered, with vast forest sea.

Hiding here was truly too convenient, even if the Supreme came, finding someone would not be an ordinary difficulty.

Unless they destroyed all the forest sea.

Qu Jianlei quickly created a secret cave and hid inside.

Today was all sneak attacks, the intensity of the battle was general, the loss of Inner Breath was not large, but wandering outside was too unsafe.

Half an hour later, Huahua finally contacted Camille.

Qu Jianlei didn't say much to her, and directly sent a photo of the A-level Ice Attribute person's head, "Do you recognize this person?"

Camille straightforwardly replied, "You need to investigate the database. You've killed him, what more do you need to ask?"

Qu Jianlei replied, "I just felt something was off, that's why I'm asking you. This person was hiding in Cyan Blade Commerce Association's Jiuchuan gathering point."

"You dismantled another gathering point?" Camille was a bit surprised but didn't pay much attention.

"But since he dared to settle in Jiuchuan, the likelihood of facial reconstruction is very high. Extract some genetic information."

Qu Jianlei didn't hesitate either. When he was on Star No. 4, he got a gene analyzer set,

this equipment wasn't expensive, but its professionalism was not bad. He hadn't used it much, but now it came in handy.

An hour later, he sent over the gene analysis results.

In less than half an hour, Camille replied, "Are you sure you didn't make a mistake? This guy died over thirty years ago!"

Was it the Living Dead organization? Qu Jianlei felt a chill down his spine.

After steadying himself, he asked, "What was this guy's cultivation level when he died?"

"He was A-level when he died," Camille replied solemnly, "but he had just advanced... he was a Star Thief!"

This person wasn't a Star Thief from the Hope Star Realm but was active in the Blade Star Realm. After advancing to A-level, he surrendered to the government.

Star Thieves were a crime second only to treason. Even surrendering, they still had to atone.

This person died in battle during atonement, which is recorded officially.
