Chapter 240: The Founding of the Bamboo Creek Assembly

~7 min read 1,367 words

The next day, Zhu Zhiquan was the first to walk out of the cave entrance. Looking at the devastation from last night, in his heart... in his heart, he didn't seem to feel anything at all.

Since most of the trees in the jungle had been burned down anyway, he entered the carriage, drove the Tricycle out into the tunnel, and drove in a certain direction while he was at it.

On the road, Zhu Zhiquan drove while checking the messages on the World Channel.

Although it was already around seven in the morning, the World Channel was still bustling at this moment, with many people discussing what had happened with the fire last night.

Quite a few people had tagged him, but Zhu Zhiquan didn't want to reply anymore; he would let these people discuss it among themselves.

Along the way, Zhu Zhiquan saw many holes beneath the bushes; those were the entrances to the nests of the Toad-Mushroom Ghosts. If it weren't for last night's fire, he feared it would have taken anyone a long time to find them.

But when he recalled that Zhao Yuxin had the talent of Bat Wing Ear, he also thought that Zhao Yuxin seemed to have discovered these holes only when this group of Toad-Mushroom Ghosts hid back underground.

Thinking again about how the Mushroom Ghost King had led them in a surprise attack last night, nearly causing his side to be wiped out, Zhu Zhiquan simply couldn't swallow this anger, so he immediately parked the vehicle and entered the carriage to pack his gear.

Inside the carriage, Gelina, who was in her tiny state, saw Zhu Zhiquan enter in a fit of rage. She wanted to ask what was going on, but felt too embarrassed to speak, so she could only pretend to be a flower inside the Flowerpot.

Before long, Zhu Zhiquan put on the Barbarian Saint Armor, strapped the Five-Star Sword to his waist, and holding the Xuangang Spear, he charged into a hole. Following that, the sound of frogs croaking came from the hole, along with some animals and Plant Monsters running out, all wearing expressions of panic and confusion.

Gelina did not understand what Zhu Zhiquan was doing. She left the Flowerpot beneath her and flew to the top of a Green Bean Ice Cream Shooter, revealing only her eyes, which were the size of rice grains, to observe the cave Zhu Zhiquan had entered.

Just as Gelina revealed her little eyes, more intense sounds of fighting and shrill frog croaks came from underground, and the source of the sound was moving in a certain direction.

Thump, thump, thump~

"Croak, croak, croak~"

"Croak, croak, croak~"

"Croak, croak, croak~"

Thump, thump, thump……………

"So noisy! Who is it!" The bursts of fighting sounds caused Zhao Yuxin, who was still sleeping in bed, to roll over and get up. She grabbed the Xunfeng Crossbow and went to the carriage window to look at the source of the sound.

Swish, swish, swish~

Thump, thump, thump~

"Croak, croak, croak~"

"Ajiu, hurry up and slaughter those annoying things underground for me! Ajiu? Where are you?" Zhao Yuxin looked around and found that she couldn't see Zhu Zhiquan anywhere, which inevitably made her feel puzzled.

Gelina lowered her head and said in a delicate voice, "He... he entered the... the cave."

Zhao Yuxin glanced at Gelina, who was hiding on top of the Green Bean Ice Cream Shooter, and said with some displeasure, "What is he doing down there?"

Gelina shook her head, which made Zhao Yuxin feel a bit of a headache.

"Forget it, I'll give him a good scolding when that guy comes back!" Zhao Yuxin turned around angrily, preparing to go back to sleep.

Gelina: "Um... shouldn't we go help? What if..."

Zhao Yuxin: "Don't worry about that battle maniac; he'll come back on his own once he's killed enough!"

After hearing this, Gelina could only shrink back and hide on top of the Green Bean Ice Cream Shooter, looking toward the direction where the fighting sounds were coming from.

Boom!

Suddenly, an explosion rang out. A hole was blasted into the ground, and then a group of Toad-Mushroom Ghosts were thrown out. Among them, many had broken hands and feet, and there were a few whose mushroom caps were gone; only one or two were completely unscathed.

A few Toad-Mushroom Ghosts wanted to return underground to continue the fight, but their bodies were hit by the sunlight, causing them to roll on the ground in pain, with white smoke drifting from their bodies.

The intense, miserable screams not only prevented Zhao Yuxin from falling back asleep, but even Xuebao was woken up by the noise.

Zhao Yuxin angrily went to the carriage window again and shouted furiously, "Zhu Zhiquan, what the hell are you doing! Can't you be a little quieter!"

Boom!

Responding to her was a Toad-Mushroom Ghost that crashed through the ground. This Toad-Mushroom Ghost traced a perfect parabola in mid-air, and by the time it landed, it had already stopped moving.

"Mm-mm..." Xuebao rubbed its eyes and looked at the mess outside, a look of confusion appearing on its face.

The fighting underground continued, and the frog croaking grew louder and louder; it seemed Zhu Zhiquan was having a blast killing down there.

Zhao Yuxin could even hear Zhu Zhiquan's rampant laughter, which made her frown.

"Gelina, let's go. We're going to bring that guy surnamed Zhu back together!"

"Okay..." Gelina immediately flew onto Zhao Yuxin's shoulder, looking like an exquisite doll.

Three minutes later, Zhu Zhiquan was dragged back to the carriage from the cave by Zhao Yuxin. Even though Zhu Zhiquan was still clutching the Blue Material Box he had found underground, he did not escape a scolding from Zhao Yuxin.

Finally, Zhao Yuxin pointed at Zhu Zhiquan and said, "Alright, did you remember everything I just said?"

Zhu Zhiquan nodded like a kitten, appearing very obedient.

"Alright, go open the box."

Zhu Zhiquan immediately turned around and opened the Material Box, and the items inside immediately appeared.

"Ding~ Congratulations on obtaining one Team Building Card, three barrels of Gasoline, fifteen units of Level 2 Metal, and one Jingtian Pozhen Gun Blueprint."

Name: Jingtian Pozhen Gun Blueprint

Quality: Purple

Introduction: This is a long staff that can freely change size and has a certain probability of summoning a Thunder Dragon to fight in coordination during attacks. However, because its internal energy is relatively violent, one must have both Strength and Constitution reach 15 to use it.

Materials: Five units of Level 2 Metal, one Magic Core.

Zhu Zhiquan was very satisfied with this blueprint and immediately learned it, preparing to craft it once his strength was sufficient.

Zhao Yuxin picked up the Team Building Card to check its information, stood there thinking for a moment, and finally said to Zhu Zhiquan, "Ajiu, I plan to create a Player Group. How about we call it Bamboo Creek Assembly?"

Zhu Zhiquan: "?"

Zhao Yuxin: "What's wrong?"

Zhu Zhiquan: "Why do you want to do that? Are you not planning to study the Toad-Mushroom Ghosts I caught for you?"

Zhao Yuxin: "We'll talk about the research later. The reason for this is that transactions between players are too unstable, especially after experiencing Blue Star; the instability of prices between players has become particularly obvious.

So, I plan to build a Player Group that can conduct stable internal transactions; this way, we can better guarantee transactions between players."

"Oh, do whatever you want." Zhu Zhiquan picked up a sandbag, preparing to put some things inside for training.

Zhao Yuxin: "Wait a second, Ajiu, don't you think this proposal of mine is great?"

"Whatever you want, I'll support whatever you do anyway." As Zhu Zhiquan said this, he filled a sandbag with metal, and after feeling it was about right, he shouldered the sandbag to do push-ups.

"Hee hee~" Zhao Yuxin smiled as she used the Team Building Card, and immediately Zhu Zhiquan also received a system notification.

"Your teammate Zhao Yuxin is about to create a Player Group, do you agree?"

"Agree."

"Please choose who will serve as the Player Group Regiment Leader."

"Zhao Yuxin."
