Chapter 219 Curfew
"Oh!!!"

After Li Tianlang left, cheers immediately erupted in the office.

The engineers who had signed the papers that morning all gathered around Xu Feng.

While giving him a thumbs up, he praised him, saying things like "XCMG is awesome" and "It has to be XCMG."

The engineers who hadn't signed off sat at their workstations, looking ashamed and unsure of what to do.

Liu Charlie asked incredulously, "Old Xu, how did you do that?"

Xu Feng waved his hand and laughed, "Although the earth will keep turning no matter who's gone, I really can't handle this mission without me."

So there's nothing I can do; it's what my superiors require, so I have to come back to work.

Let's all compromise and not make things so tense.

Liu Charlie opened his mouth, took a deep breath, and then gave a thumbs up: "Old Xu, I, Liu Charlie, have never admired anyone in my life."

You're the first one, really!

I admire you not only technically, but I'm also ashamed of myself as a person.

Xu Feng chuckled, patted Liu Charlie on the shoulder, and then his face darkened slightly: "After get off work, please go and visit the Chen family for me."

Also, ask them if the patrol team's compensation has been received.

"Please also bring me some gifts, and send me the bill later."

“Okay, no problem,” Liu Charlie nodded.

At this point, Xu Feng handed Liu Charlie a piece of paper: "Please report these people I've listed to higher authorities."

These are the names of the guards I need.

“Uh,” Liu Charlie glanced at the guard list, then exclaimed in surprise, “So many people?”

Xu Feng raised an eyebrow and said, "130%? As the chief engineer, isn't it normal for me to lead a larger team?"

Liu Charlie immediately gave a wry smile: "Okay, then I'll really sign up."

If the boss scolds me then, I'll just say it was you who told me to report it.

Xu Feng smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, he won't refuse. He doesn't have the guts."

Xu Feng chuckled: "If someone really insults you, I'll insult them back for you."

Liu Charlie gave a helpless laugh, got up and walked outside.

Five minutes later, he returned with a shocked expression: "He really agreed!"

Xu Feng said calmly, "Alright, you can decide on the other engineers."

After saying that, he rummaged through the drawer and took out all the medals of merit he had previously received, as well as the chief engineer's badge.

After changing into a brand-new set of work clothes, Xu Feng pinned the badges one by one to his left chest.

"Wow, impressive! Are you planning to make a big splash?"

Liu Charlie looked enviously at the several badges on Xu Feng's chest and asked in confusion.

Xu Feng waved his hand and said, "Hey, I haven't brought them with me yet. I'll bring them on this mission to show off."

After Lao Liu went to allocate manpower and equipment, Xu Feng called Huang Sen: "Lao Huang, there's a mission this afternoon, Xiao Dan needs you."
You broke through to the Warrior level? Holy crap, great! Let's celebrate when I get back.

"Okay, hang up."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Feng smiled in surprise:
"Could it be that this guy gained some insight from watching our fight last time, which accelerated his breakthrough speed?"

This only cost less than 30 million; I thought it would cost at least 50 million. Not bad.

In high spirits, Xu Feng picked up his equipment, hummed a song, and walked out of the office toward the maintenance workshop.

In less than half an hour, the entire group had arrived.

Apart from a few engineers from the engineering department, the guard team consisted of eight people.

The team leader was Wang Lin, and the deputy leader was Sun Qian, a high-ranking general.

Xu Feng had previously worked with this aloof Captain Sun and did not have a good impression of her.

In addition, there are Li Suifeng and Luo Feng, who were borrowed from the Special Investigation Team.

The team of elite soldiers borrowed from the military consisted of Zhou Xian, Wang Leng, Dongfang Xu, and Sun Liu.

Almost all of them were our own people.

In addition, there is a new face among the engineers.

Xu Feng casually introduced him: "This is the child of one of my friends, Xiao Chen, Chen Gu."

Chen Gu just joined the engineering department a few days ago and is now a maintenance assistant.

I took him out this time because I wanted him to gain some experience.

But don't give me face, just ask him for help with anything, and if he can't do it, just scold him.

Just treat him like my nephew.

Everyone laughed.

"XCMG, you're too kind."

"That's right, XCMG's nephew is like our younger brother, right? Everyone should take care of him."

"Don't worry, XCMG, we'll definitely teach him some real skills!"

"Don't be nervous, Xiao Chen. Just ask us any questions you have. We will answer them to the best of our ability."

Gu Cheng scratched his head shyly: "Thank you, everyone! Please feel free to offer your criticisms and suggestions!"

"Good, good, good, this child is polite."

"Today's college students are really strong, unlike us back then who were all self-taught."

"This is XCMG's nephew!"

"He's definitely a good kid!"

Xu Feng glanced at everyone and said with a slight smile, "Alright, let's get ready to go. This inspection mission is very simple."

We're just going to do an inspection of a few outposts at Base Six.

See how well these colleagues are doing their jobs, and then you can head home.

So everyone doesn't need to be so serious, just relax.

However, if it's on my way, I'd also like to check out the communications station and communications tower at Base Nine along our route.

Any problems can be resolved on-site, reducing the chances of the team going out and avoiding unnecessary waste of resources, okay?

Everyone smiled slightly: "Alright! Let's go!"

Xu Feng glanced at Gu Cheng, and after the two looked at each other, Gu Cheng nodded slightly.

After that, no matter who spoke to him, Gu Cheng would nod and smile shyly.

He kept referring to everyone as "senior" and kept helping them load heavier equipment onto the truck.

He quickly became friends with everyone.

This saved Xu Feng a lot of trouble.

Immediately, everyone began to prepare, while Xu Feng called the guards aside.

"Actually, there was absolutely no need to have so many defenders on this mission, and everyone knows my abilities."

However, this is the first mission for the department to restore the number of guards.

For the safety and well-being of all engineers, I specifically invited you all by name.

Everyone nodded slightly to indicate that they understood.

Zhou Xian and the others, who knew the inside story, did not show any abnormality.

Wang Lin, however, was unaware of the situation.

But it doesn't matter.

Upon seeing the guard formation, he knew there must be an important mission.

These people were all members of Xu Feng's small team.

Xu Feng would never have equipped himself with so many troops unless the mission was extremely important.

Xu Feng smiled slightly: "Alright, although that's what we say, I still hope everyone will fulfill their responsibilities."

As an engineer, I try to avoid taking action whenever possible.

Now that everything is ready, let's get going.

Captain Wang, you'll be in the same car as me.

"Okay." Wang Lin nodded and took the driver's seat first.

Stepping out of the workshop, Xu Feng addressed the group, saying, "Chen Gu, Sui Feng, you two come with me."

Everyone else, get in the car yourselves. Engineers and maintenance assistants will work in pairs. Let's go!

Once we got in the car, it headed straight for the city wall.

After leaving the city, we drove straight towards the nearest communications tower in the northwest direction.

Although most of the dimensional world remains undeveloped and relatively primitive.

However, the Great Xia army has been conquering this place for at least a century.

As a country known for its infrastructure development, even though there aren't proper asphalt roads between bases, outposts, and communication stations.

However, the places I often walk on are dirt roads and gravel roads.

Therefore, when traveling along some main routes within a radius of 100 kilometers around the base.

Driving a vehicle is actually very convenient, it's just very bumpy.

As soon as he got into the car, Gu Cheng couldn't help but ask Xu Feng, "Mr. Xu, why did we take a detour to the communications station and communications tower?"

Xu Feng replied matter-of-factly, "Of course it's maintenance. Isn't that our mission?"

Gu Cheng paused for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, you're right."

Since I'm often not on the front lines, my sense of smell has become much dulled.

"Yes, you're right. Let's follow the mission plan then."

Wang Lin glanced at Gu Cheng in the rearview mirror but didn't ask any further questions.

However, Xu Feng directly told him, "If a battle breaks out later, Lao Wang, you just need to keep things under control and protect Xiao Gu."

"Little Gu?" Wang Lin asked tentatively.

Xu Feng casually said, "Gu Cheng is from the intelligence agency. This mission is to take him to his destination."

The inspection duties were merely a formality.

Gu Cheng opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

But Xu Feng, Wang Lin, and Li Suifeng all looked completely ordinary.

I knew that Wang Lin must be someone Xu Feng trusted very much.

Xu Feng noticed Gu Cheng's micro-expression and explained with a smile, "Mr. Gu, don't be angry. I didn't mean to leak information."

However, Lao Wang is one of my own, and a very close friend.

He was also one of only two War God level experts present.

Of course, on the surface he's just a warrior, and like me, he recently broke through to a higher level.

Gu Cheng then solemnly said, "My apologies."

Wang Lin casually replied, "You're welcome."

Gu Cheng smiled slightly: "I've heard of Mr. Wang. When he was a general, he could rival the fighting power of a war god."

He was an extremely famous assassin back in the Twelfth Dimension.

Xu Feng and Li Suifeng both looked at Wang Lin in surprise: "An assassin?"

Wang Lin said expressionlessly, "That's all in the past."

Li Suifeng, however, didn't realize that Wang Lin didn't want to talk about the past. He excitedly moved closer to Wang Lin and asked:

"Goodness, I never would have guessed. Old Wang, with your striking white hair, could you really be an assassin?"

Aren't assassins supposed to be discreet? The more ordinary, the better.

Xu Feng slapped Li Suifeng on the forehead: "Next time you eat, you'll sit at the same table as Fox Two."

"Go away, is this something you should be asking? Stop asking such pointless questions."

As he spoke, he glared at Li Suifeng.

Li Suifeng then shrank back, sticking out his tongue, and said, "I've never seen an assassin before."

Then, Xu Feng glanced at Gu Cheng and said, "And you, you're a maintenance assistant now."

Stop showing off how much you know. Nobody's asking you, okay?

Gu Cheng felt awkward for a moment, then quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, Uncle, I was wrong."

Xu Feng chuckled, pleased that the guy could get into character so quickly.

If you're going to act, you have to go all the way.

This award-winning actor has done extensive research in this area.

The next three days.

The group traveled along the way, stopping frequently, and whenever they encountered a communication station or tower, they would go up to inspect it.

The battles and attacks by mutated creatures they encountered along the way were all dealt with by Zhou Xian and his team.

Extremely efficient and extremely powerful in combat.

This greatly shocked Sun Qian, who was also a high-ranking warrior.

Because she realized that it had only been half a year since they last met.

Even Li Suifeng, who initially could only assist her in her team, can now stand on his own. In fact, his combat strength is almost equal to hers.

But the opponent was only a mid-level warrior!
As for Xu Feng, she couldn't understand him at all.

From her perspective, the other person was just an ordinary engineer.

Throughout the entire process, he showed absolutely no alertness whatsoever that a martial artist should have regarding danger.

Xu Feng offered no explanation for Sun Qian's shock and confusion.

Now he only needs to give orders and oversee things; he no longer needs to do the repairs himself.

Gu Cheng was the busiest person in the entire team.

As a maintenance assistant, he was constantly being called upon to help out here and there.

After three whole days, the guy was exhausted and looked completely worn out.

"You're not good enough, kid. You're still just a beginner warrior."

With such low stamina, won't he be exhausted trying to get married?

"Hahahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter.

evening.

Everyone sat around the campfire, eating and teasing Gu Cheng.

Gu Cheng's face was flushed, whether from the firelight or from embarrassment, it was hard to tell.

He could only lower his head and laugh awkwardly.

Just then, an engineer stood up, holding a bottle of mineral water, and said, "Mr. Xu, I must toast you."

If it weren't for you, we would never be treated like human beings.

They wouldn't have such a large and abundant guard force.

"That's right! I'll also raise a toast!"

"XCMG is awesome!"

"A toast!"

As several engineers stood up to express their gratitude, three maintenance assistants also stood up and raised their glasses.

Xu Feng smiled and returned the cup, and then everyone sat down again to chat and joke around.

Gu Cheng glanced at Xu Feng, a strange light flashing in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "It seems that Uncle Xu is highly respected by everyone in the engineering department."

Xu Feng smiled and said, "It's all thanks to everyone's kindness."

After chatting for a few minutes, Gu Cheng said in a low voice, "By the way, Uncle Xu, could you speed things up a bit in the next few days? I'm getting a little anxious."

"In a hurry? Want to go home?" Xu Feng asked meaningfully.

Gu Cheng sighed and said, "Yes, my family is actually quite worried."

Xu Feng nodded and said, "Okay, then let's speed things up."

After dinner, everyone except the guards who were on duty quickly went to sleep.

The team set off early the next morning.

This time, Xu Feng did not take a detour to the communications station or communications tower.

Instead, he led his team directly towards Base Six.

After resupplying at an outpost, they arrived near Base 6 within two days.

Just then, an engineer in the team finally noticed that the route was wrong:
"Huh? XCMG, isn't the nearest communication station to us at Base 6 the No. 3 communication station?"

Why go to Communications Station No. 1? Isn't this taking a longer route?

In the group, Zhou Xian and the others lowered their heads and frowned.

But Xu Feng laughed and said, "Although it's just a patrol and inspection, it's actually a surprise inspection."

They knew we were coming, and since it's the closest we've come, their preparations here must be the most thorough.

"Then we definitely can't check Center Station Three first."

Everyone immediately realized: "Haha, yes, yes, you're right."

First check number one, then number two, and finally number three—give them a surprise and see their true abilities!

Xu Feng smiled and said, "Yes! Let's go!"

In the group, Li Suifeng breathed a slight sigh of relief, fearing that it might arouse suspicion.

But when he looked at Gu Cheng, he saw that the other party looked completely indifferent.

He acted as if he were a real maintenance assistant, hitting wherever Xu Feng pointed.

Li Suifeng couldn't help but admire him.

No wonder he works in intelligence; his mental fortitude is truly impressive.

That evening.

The group then arrived at Communication Station No. 1 of Base No. 6 in Area C.

Like Base 9, Base 6 is also a large base, so it is equipped with three communication stations.

The engineers and guards stationed at the communications station were quite surprised by their arrival.

However, according to Xu Feng's observation, these people were all reacting normally.

Immediately after completing the inspection in a hurry.

Xu Feng then summoned the captain of the communications station's guard team and asked, "Our communications station can't accommodate anyone. What's the nearest outpost?"
We'll go over there to resupply and make do for the night.

Without a shred of doubt, the captain smiled and said, "The nearest outpost is Outpost No. 2. It's quite bustling over there, only about 60 kilometers away."

Xu Feng smiled and shook hands with the other party, then looked at the station chief of the communications station: "Okay, thanks, we'll be leaving now."

Although there are still some problems with the work here, we're all just working people.

I understand that I won't deliberately make things difficult for you.

We just hope everyone can put in more effort; routine line maintenance is extremely important.

“XCMG is right.” The station manager wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded repeatedly.

"Alright, let's head over then. We've been traveling for several days, and everyone wants to relax a bit. Let's go."

Xu Feng smiled, waved his hand, and got into the car.

As soon as the car started moving, he turned to Chen Gu and asked, "How are you feeling? Are you adjusting well to this environment?"

Gu Cheng nodded: "I'm adapting quite well, and the people are all nice."

Xu Feng smiled and said, "That's good. Shall we go straight to Outpost No. 2?"

"it is good."

Gu Cheng immediately became serious.

His destination was Outpost No. 2 at Base No. 6!
But after everyone had traveled a long way and arrived at Outpost No. 2,

The patrol personnel on high alert outside the outpost kept them all out of the post.

"Sorry, this post is under curfew. Please come back tomorrow morning."

The leading patrolling warrior spoke coldly to the group.

Xu Feng stepped forward and said, "Hello, we are the communications engineering team from the Engineering Department of Base Nine. We are here to inspect the communications facilities, not—"

"I don't care what you do for a living, can't you understand human language?"

However, the patrol captain interrupted Xu Feng with extreme impatience.

Zhou Xian and the others standing nearby immediately turned cold and were about to step forward, but Xu Feng raised his hand to stop them.

He narrowed his eyes: "Call your station chief out here to answer."

However, the martial artist glanced at Xu Feng and then simply ignored him.

"I am Xu Feng, the chief engineer of Base Nine, with the rank of Senior Colonel in the Great Xia Army. Tell your station chief to come out and answer me!"

Xu Feng pulled out his ID and held it up in front of the martial artist, his face cold.

However, the warrior scoffed: "So what if I'm a colonel? Even a major general has to follow the rules of the outpost when he comes here!"

"I said you can't come in, even if you were the God of War, you couldn't come in!"

"Damn it! You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences?" Zhou Xian's temper flared up instantly.

A small outpost, set up in front of this group of people?
While cursing and swearing, he strode towards the other person.

However, no one expected this.

The martial artist suddenly raised his hand: "Watch out for enemy attacks!!"

Swish!
All nine patrol members on site drew their weapons at once.

At the same time, the automatic turrets on the city wall at the outpost gate hummed and turned their cannons towards Xu Feng and his group.

Xu Feng shouted, stopping Zhou Xian: "Don't be impulsive!"

He then glanced at Gu Cheng.

Gu Cheng stepped to the front of the line and took out his identification: "I am a senior intelligence officer of the Great Xia Intelligence Bureau."

I'm here on behalf of the Great Xia Intelligence Bureau to investigate. Have Zhang Ning come out to see me immediately.

"Tch—" However, the martial artist seemed to have swallowed a heavy weight, "I already said it's curfew, can't you understand human language?"

Nobody is allowed in! Even if you were the King of Heaven himself, you'd have to wait outside today!

"Fuck your mother—"

From the crowd, Dongfang Xu suddenly leaped out and grabbed at the martial artist's collar with a claw.

But in the next moment.

"careful!"

Xu Feng grabbed him and pulled him back instantly.

Wang Lin then pulled Gu Cheng and the other two engineers back dozens of meters.

Boom boom boom!
Immediately, the automatic turrets on the city wall burst into flames, creating a crater where everyone had been standing!
Everyone looked at each other with drastically changed expressions, as if they had seen a group of madmen.

"Are you all crazy? How dare you openly attack an official team? Are you trying to rebel?!"

Zhou Xian roared angrily, his killing intent almost bursting forth.

However, the group of martial artists still maintained a cold expression: "Our rules are our rules."

Anyone who dares to trespass will die. Don't believe me? Come and try!

Seeing this, Xu Feng finally understood.

The problems at this outpost are probably more than just minor.

No wonder they sent Gu Cheng here at such a risk; it seems the authorities underestimated the problems here.

Ok.

Xu Feng now finally understood why the higher-ups insisted on having him lead the team.

"Openly attacking the official engineering team and then saying we're courting death?"

Xu Feng suddenly shook his head and smiled.

"I really don't believe it."

The voice just fell.

He suddenly leaped into the air and vanished from the spot.

The patrol captain's expression changed and he was about to speak when he saw two dark, heavy objects suddenly fall from the sky.

Boom!

The moment a heavy object hits the ground.

The patrol captain's expression changed.

Automatic turret!

Swish!
Xu Feng landed slowly: "Take him down, but don't kill him."

Zhou Xian and the others almost simultaneously let out a sinister laugh and launched their attack.

The patrol captain only had time to shout, "Enemy attack!!"

Then Dongfang Xu beat him to it, punching him to the ground and smashing his face to pieces, leaving it covered in blood.

The other patrol members were even more vulnerable, collapsing to the ground instantly as if made of paper.

Sun Qian, who was standing in front of the engineers, didn't even have time to react before Zhou Xian and his team had already finished the fight.

She paused for a moment, her thought surprisingly being, "Wouldn't it be okay to really force our way into the outpost?"

But Zhou Xian and the others seemed to have never thought about this issue at all.

So decisive!

Xu Feng turned to look at Gu Cheng: "Let's go."

"Ah."

Gu Cheng nodded and took a step forward.

boom!
Suddenly.

A figure suddenly flew out from inside the outpost.

Along with the figure came a terrifying aura.

The oppressive, ferocious aura of that beast made everyone present gasp in their chests.

A feeling of fear arises unconsciously!
