Chapter 75: Return to Base
Chapter 75: Return to Base
"Alright, follow me as we get out from this gathering spot. I'm sure that they'll come back and check on us after eating and drinking. It's a waste, but I guess I'll have to give up my Resin Protector Suit…" Satella said as she led everyone to follow her as they leave.
If one were to look at them from afar, people would notice that Zhang Qin Feng was the least cumbersome amongst the group of four. That's because most of his belonging went secretly into his Dimensional Inventory.
But in exchange to kept the belongings inside the storage pockets, Zhang Qin Feng had to make a harsh decision. Stein was ordered to dump six hundred portions of vacuum-sealed food into the void for Zhang Qin Feng to keep the jewelry inside the Dimensional Storage.
Although he'll eventually get back more than what he threw away, it still left a sour taste in his mouth for wasting the food.
By the time the group of scavengers noticed that their captives escaped, it was already too late.
"Who is the one taking care of the slaves? All of them have escaped! Even the armory was raided! You fool!" the leader of the scavenger group used the resin cup in his hand to beat his men as he vents his anger.
"Sorry, boss! Sorry! Do we go back to the base to catch them again? I'm sure they'll get back to where they are before." one of the scavengers said. From his facial expression, he seems to be eager to go out and hunt.
"Leave it. We have something else to do. How's the preparation ongoing? Are we ready to leave?" the leader of the scavengers rejected the idea to pursue Satella and the others.
Thinking that all he had lost was just a few slaves, guns, materials, and jewelry made the leader felt slightly unfortunate. Although he has no problem ordering his men to raid the survival camp again, it would be a waste of time.
Furthermore, it was not like the guns they taken is too expensive. With enough parts and material, a new one can be printed out from the Substance and Matter Printer with little to no effort.
By the time the scavenger leader has done venting his anger, another similar size group approached them.
"Are we ready to go?" the leader of the other group asked. His tone made it looks like something is going on between them.
"We're ready. Let's cooperate nicely in this operation." the leader that got some of his stash stolen by Zhang Qin Feng and Satella replied. With a wave of his hand, he had all his boys following him.
Every single scavenger from these two groups was fully equipped before they left the gathering area.

"I have no idea that you'll come here to bring me back. It must be tough for you to come in here alone." Satella said as she used a piece of towel to clean Zhang Qin Feng's face.
"I'm puzzled, honestly… Why do I feel that you're getting captured on purpose by them?" Zhang Qin Feng asked. He was filled with worries when he left the base to search for Satella. But from how she looks, it seems that everything was happening according to her expectation.
"Oh, please! Do you know how long I've been living around here?" Satella smiled. Both of her hands were on Zhang Qin Feng's face as she felt that the man before her looked exceptionally cute right now.
"Are you worried?" she asked.
"Yes," Zhang Qin Feng nodded and picked up his speed. Since it will be night soon, they will have their vision impaired when the sun finally sets.
By that time, returning to their base will become troublesome.
"Don't be angry… I'll make sure I serve you well tonight inside our room, alright?" Satella grabbed Zhang Qin Feng's arm and put it in between her breast to make him happier. And the trick seems to be working when a smile appeared on his face.
The four soon reach the entrance of their base.
Miria immediately opened the door blocking the entrance for them to come in. But Zhang Qin Feng decided to stay outside for a while more and told the others to get into the base first.
Walking around and looking for a proper spot to park the Reprinter Unit, Zhang Qin Feng allowed Stein to finish the remaining work. A vehicle about the size of a luxury SUV came out of nowhere.
[Toot… Please connect the Reprinter Unit with the Dimensional Charge Storage. The system will transfer a small amount of power supply to allow it to operate automatically]
-
[The user also may select one of three options for the Reprinter Unit]
-
=] Scrap Processing
=] Road Clearing
=] Mapping
-
Suddenly given three options to choose from confused Zhang Qin Feng a little. But he eventually gets over it as he remembered why he put such an effort to get this Reprinter Unit.
'Stein. Set the Reprinter Unit to work on the scrap processing first. Keep it quiet as we have no idea what will happen at night. The processed material can be piled around here in case Marvin needs them." Zhang Qin Feng ordered.
With his concern is handled, Zhang Qin Feng returned to the building and made sure he locked the door before walking upstairs.
Using the same trick of walking along the walls, Zhang Qin Feng effortlessly moved past the tenth and eleventh-floor obstacle and headed straight to the penthouse. It was time for dinner by the time he pushed the door into the penthouse.
"The boss is here! Let's eat!" Satella said as she told everyone to start eating. The noodle in their bowl is getting soggier by the time they began to eat.
"Don't wait for me next time." Zhang Qin Feng took the cutlery in hand and tasted a mouthful of spicy broth first.
"Ah! This is delicious. If there's cheese here, it would be much better." Zhang Qin Feng said. The word (Cheese) made everyone else puzzled because they had no idea what it was.
