Chapter 797: 423 Delivered to the door

Just as the leaders of the Market Base were feeling overwhelmed, the doors of the meeting room suddenly burst open from the outside! With a loud "bang," someone rushed in. The leaders’ expressions changed, and they were about to get angry, but then they heard him exclaim excitedly, "General! Two large trucks have arrived outside the base, claiming to trade with us. They want to exchange food for the supplies we have!"

The anger in their hearts, like a balloon being punctured, instantly dissipated. An elderly man at the forefront couldn’t wait to ask, "Is what you’re saying true? Have they really brought food to trade with us?"

Others were also overjoyed, feeling an almost dreamlike sense of unreality. Someone couldn’t help but say, "This is too coincidental. Could there be deception involved?"

The other leaders shared this concern. It wasn’t that they didn’t trust people, but the timing seemed too perfect. Just when they were facing a food shortage, someone conveniently brought food. How could there be such good fortune? In peaceful times, sure, but this was the apocalypse. Food crises weren’t exclusive to their location, and no one knew what the future held.

Everyone felt uncertain, so even those bases with sufficient food reserves dared not sell large quantities to them, fearing unforeseen events that might prevent them from supporting their own base. Despite their food shortage, they resented other bases’ coldness but understood their cautiousness.

Now, someone suddenly brought a large amount of food to exchange for supplies, appearing suspicious no matter how they looked at it.

The people in the meeting room exchanged glances. Finally, the elderly man said, "Regardless of whether this is suspicious, since they’ve come, we should at least check it out. If they really brought a large amount of food, we can’t just turn it away, can we?"

Though he said this, someone still worried, "But food is so precious right now; the fact that they specially delivered it means they spent considerable gasoline just for the transport. How many supplies must we give in exchange?"

With various concerns in mind, they went to the wall and used binoculars to observe the two large trucks at a safe distance. The trucks were colossal and seemed to have marks of being repaired with a Gold Element Superpower. Judging by how the tires sank, the cargo compartments seemed to carry something incredibly heavy.

Seeing this, many felt slightly relieved. Before coming, they feared the other party was lying and there was no food. But now it seemed likely that the cargo compartments held food.

To confirm, a Spiritual Superpower User accompanied them this time. After reaching the wall, he quietly released his Spiritual Tentacles to explore the truck compartments. Out of caution, he also attempted to probe the people inside the trucks.

Unexpectedly, upon probing, his expression changed! The individuals seemed shielded by a robust barrier that his Spiritual Tentacles couldn’t penetrate. If he forced his way through, it might backfire on him!

Realizing this, the Spiritual Superpower User’s face turned pale. Only when he confirmed the cargo compartments were indeed full of food did his complexion improve slightly.

The other leaders discreetly observed his expression and, seeing his paleness, eagerly asked, "What’s happening? Why do you look so grim? Are they deceiving us? Isn’t there any food in the trucks?"

The Spiritual Superpower User shook his head and gritted his teeth, saying, "No, the cargo compartments are indeed full of food." Hearing this, everyone around beamed with joy, their eyes fixed on the two trucks below, fearing they might vanish into thin air!

However, they quickly heard the Spiritual Superpower User continue, "But even though there are only three people on the trucks, their strength is terrifying. They might even be more powerful than Qiu Yiming!"

As he finished speaking, the people, who were initially overjoyed because of the food, suddenly changed their expressions, looking at the two trucks below with disbelief and suspicion. Qiu Yiming was almost the strongest at the Market Base, yet if even he wasn’t their match, how terrifyingly powerful were these individuals?
