Armor-piercing bullets don't believe in carbon-based monsters

Chapter 109 Do You Know Us?

Of course Chen Jian could guess where Zhou Qin came from, but he really didn't understand why the other party showed up at this time.

What’s wrong? After being blasted, instead of shrinking back, you come running over and say, “It was me who was peeping at you just now”?
This is totally inconsistent with the behavioral logic of a voyeur.

However, Chen Jian did not ask any further questions for the time being. He just asked Zhou Qin to keep a distance and follow behind the team, and to talk about anything after returning to Huangshi City.

Zhou Qin had no objection to this, so after packing up their equipment, the team quickly returned to Yellowstone City and brought back the news of victory to the residents there who were eagerly waiting.

It was another unstoppable celebration, and people looked at Chen Jian and his companions with obvious respect.

Chen Jian did not want this kind of "reverence" to develop excessively, so he simply notified Huang Yu to organize the defense and persuaded those who were in high spirits to go back to sleep. He then led the main combatants to the room where the Ring Merchant was waiting.

Chen Jian didn't say anything, so Zhou Qin followed the team.

However, when he walked into the room and saw the Ring Merchant standing up from his chair, he was suddenly stunned.

"Mr. Wang?"

"Do you know?"

Chen Jian looked back at Zhou Qin with some surprise. Zhou Qin did not hide anything but nodded and said:
"This is Mr. Wang Lizi from the Yuanhuan Chamber of Commerce. Sorry, I'm not used to this title. Maybe calling you Sir would be more appropriate."

After he finished speaking, the man opposite nodded slightly and said:

"Then there's no need to bother introducing yourself - but you can still call me Mr., as this is our tradition."

"Of course, of course"

Zhou Qin retreated to the corner and stopped interrupting.

A thought flashed through his mind:
Is it because of the intervention of the Yuanhuan Chamber of Commerce that these "Huaxia troops" have become so powerful?
No, the order is reversed.

It should be that the Ring Chamber of Commerce realized that these Chinese troops are strong enough, so they took the initiative to contact them.

This can be seen from what Wang Lizi said, "No need to introduce myself."

However, if this is true, then the future of the Chinese Army in Huangshi City is truly immeasurable.

After all, in his impression, the forces that the Ring Chamber of Commerce has actively contacted are only a handful.
If the Huaxia Army finally reaches a cooperation with the Circle Chamber of Commerce, how far can they go?
Zhou Qin suddenly felt very glad that he was here.

If we retreat out of "fear" like the Guardian did, I'm afraid the Holy Blood Temple will be overtaken not only by the Mechanicus, but also by the Circle Chamber of Commerce.

By that time, the situation was quite passive.
Zhou Qin breathed a sigh of relief quietly, already thinking about how to save the situation and regain the top partnership. At this time, Wang Lizi, who was standing opposite Chen Jian, spoke again.

"Mr. Chen, are the weapons we provide useful?"

There was a hint of arrogance in his tone, but Chen Jian didn't take it too seriously. Instead, he nodded and replied:
"Not bad, at least it helped us kill the monster successfully."

"We owe you a favor."

“You’re a pretty reasonable partner.”

Wang Lizi smiled and nodded, then said:
"However, no matter how useful a weapon is, its effectiveness still depends on the person using it."

"The batch of rockets we sent over has always been considered by the Mechanicus as one of the most useless weapons."

"The range is too short, the power is too small, and the accuracy is too poor. Perhaps in their eyes, a dozen rockets are not as useful as a smoothbore cannon."

"They probably never imagined that someone could kill a monster close to the second-level standard in just a few minutes with a weapon they despised."

Level 2?

Chen Jian couldn't help but be a little surprised.

No wonder this thing is so difficult to deal with. It turns out it is close to level two!

The upper limit of monsters that humans in this world can deal with is level two.

My goodness, the intensity has already reached a high level, but I am still slow to react.

Chen Jian felt emotional in his heart, but his face remained expressionless.

He just nodded and replied briefly:

"The trick is simple: the closer you get, the more accurate your shot will be."

"That's right!"

Wang Lizi smiled and clapped his hands, then glanced at Zhou Qin beside him and said:

"It's a pity that some people who should have approached the monster didn't have the courage to do so."

"So, this truly proves how powerful you are."

"Although you only have a few hundred people, you have demonstrated a combat effectiveness higher than that of thousands of people."

"The most admirable thing is that this kind of combat capability is not achieved by relying on equipment or some irreplaceable blood."

“You rely on wisdom.” “This is quite consistent with our philosophy. Even our leader expressed his admiration.”

"No big deal."

Chen Jian's attitude remained neither humble nor arrogant. Wang Lizi seemed to feel that he had been flattered enough, so he coughed and said:

“You don’t seem to appreciate such compliments – I salute your humility.”

"But we have certainly talked enough about this issue."

"I think we should get down to business, right?"

There was some expectation in Wang Lizi's eyes. He thought Chen Jian would nod without hesitation and then drive Zhou Qin, who was in the way, out.

But in fact, he was only half right.

Chen Jian did have Zhou Qin taken away.

However, he had no intention of starting the transaction directly.

"Show your identity."

Chen Jian looked at Wang Lizi opposite him and said sternly.

"I?"

Wang Lizi was stunned.

He never expected that Chen Jian's attitude would be so cold.

But he had a mission to accomplish, so he just frowned slightly and then replied:

"Just as the Holy Blood said, I am a merchant from the Circle Chamber of Commerce."

“I am here on behalf of the Circle Chamber of Commerce and the leaders to establish a close working relationship with the city of Yellowstone.”

“And, of course, to promote our deal.”

"You are a noble and trustworthy person. I told Qin Yuan that you have agreed to the deal with us. I think you will not go back on your word at this time, right?"

"will not."

Chen Jian shook his head, and then said word by word:

“But I also have my principles.”

"And my principle is that I have to understand the other party to the transaction."

"I want to know who you are, and I want to fully understand the background of your organization and confirm whether you are a threat to me."

"Only when these questions are answered one by one can our transaction move forward."

After the words were spoken, Wang Lizi on the opposite side fell silent.

He looked straight into Chen Jian's eyes, as if trying to judge how firm the other party's determination was.

Chen Jian also looked back without flinching. The two of them just stared at each other, neither of them willing to take a step back.

The atmosphere seemed a little tense, and at this moment, Shen Yue behind Chen Jian suddenly made an inappropriate move.

He pulled the bolt of Flight 201.

The crisp sound echoed in the room. Wang Lizi blinked, and then he finally looked away.

"All right."

Wang Lizi spread his hands and said:
"This is not an excessive request. In fact, it is within my authority."

"But I must tell you that I will not answer any questions regarding the safety of the Chamber of Commerce."

"For example, where is our headquarters, where do our resources come from, and what is our organizational structure like?"

"Although I know that you have obtained some information through the interrogation of Qin Yuan, that is the limit."

"A harmless confession won't hurt our deal, but going further... that's not the case."

"So, Mr. Chen, what do you want to know?"

Chen Jian let out a light breath and didn't speak immediately.

He knew that the thing he wanted to confirm did not require very complicated questions.

On the contrary, he could get the answer he wanted with just one extremely simple question.

And this problem is.
"If the flag of the Huaxia Army is composed of red and yellow, then who are we?"
