Chapter 68: The Mismatch Lineup

It is an inborn trait for people to have the principle ’to see is to believe’. That’s why, no matter what kind of promotion Li Chunhua made, Mr. Fang and Gong Panli held their ground not to listen to Li Chunhua’s ridiculous request.

They can’t just imagine how an old woman with a hunched back could defeat an ability user in its prime.

Even though the old woman had displayed surprising strength and stamina before in the tunnel, the battle tonight was a whole new matter.

To worsen it, this lass was also thinking of getting a dog involved, which makes them wonder if she was purposely doing it to cheer them up despite her saying she was serious.

However, the busy bee that was driven by the mission rewards didn’t give up and became more vigorous than before.

Mr. Fang tried to swat it away, but ended up getting himself hurt instead. His hand that had hit a certain someone’s butt was swelling and red.

This lass! What is her butt made of? Tons of star ore?

"You’re as short-tempered as ever, Old Fang." Gong Panli held Mr. Fang’s wrist and fixed his dislocated wrist.

"Ouch." Mr. Fang hissed in pain.

Li Chunhua stopped after she had indirectly caused someone’s injury.

Siri and Little Mantou scooted over to her side after overhearing her persuading the pair to accept them into the team for the match and whispering into her ears.

"Master, I don’t want to." Little Mantou voiced out his opinion, rejecting her idea.

"Master, this seems very unnecessary. How about we separate from them and look for survivors on our own with good cooking skills instead?" Siri suggested.

The two did not like going over these troublesome things because time was pressing over their heads.

But Li Chunhua didn’t want to waste the opportunity given by the system and showed both The Elf and the Little Fox why she was insisting on their participation.

[Reward: Five Minutes of Treasure Chest Radar]

Radar?

Does that mean the location of the treasure chests will be revealed?

Both Siri and Little Mantou took very deep breaths, and a minute later, a number of Mr. Fang’s gym equipment got wrecked by two treasure chest-hungry individuals.

Food Boxes! Little Mantou shouted in his head after destroying the treadmills.

Blueprints! Siri exclaimed in his mind after destroying one of the wooden pillars of the gym with his knife-throwing skills using weapons acquired from the treasure chest loots.

While a certain someone becomes a cheerleader, encouraging the two to be so proud of their accomplishments, "Go, Little Mantou! Go Bro... Grandma!"

"Enough...Stop! Stop!" Mr. Fang felt his blood pressure rose from these three retards.

On the other hand, Gong Panli’s mouth was wide open, and he began analyzing the chances of them winning against Lightning Fist’s team.

The deal didn’t forbid them from taking in a dog and a grandma.

If they play smart and match well, they can do it!

After that show, Gong Panli and Mr. Fang, whose face carried exhaustion, had to accept Li Chunhua’s previous suggestion.

The three newly created team members for tomorrow’s match were then decided.

And they only now lacked two.

Regarding this problem, Li Chunhua already thought of it beforehand, and thus, a few minutes later, Tan Ge and his friend, still sitting on their respective chairs and holding their bowls full of food, dazedly stared at the four people, a dog, and the gym.

Minutes before they were still having breakfast, out of nowhere, a hole emerged under chairs and swallowed them, and before they knew it, they were in a different place, and they were told to fill up the vacancy spots for tonight’s match and go against the most powerful mercenary team.

"We’re complete!" Li Chunhua clapped her hands in joy.

Tan Ge and his friend: "..."

Gong Panli and the others: "..."

"But Miss Li, I think they’re not willing." Gong Panli stuttered after detecting the extreme reluctance on Tan Ge and his buddy’s faces.

Li Chunhua only spun her neck, and the two men instantly splashed dirty water on Gong Feitian and Lighting Fist’s team before expressing their willingness to join.

Their mouths ran, flowing water without stopping, and the curses coming out were creative and trendy.

Gong Panli and others would have believed them if not for the expression on the two’s faces while spouting such things.

Tan Ge and his friend were displaying a pale visage with all their tears and snouts, as if they were at a funeral.

Tan Ge, specifically, wept louder while thinking.

What kind of evil did I do in my past life to end up crossing paths with this monster?

Regardless of his thoughts, the team was still officially established with its mismatch line-up: Tan Ge, his friend Jun Qi, Siri, Mantou, and Li Chunhua.

Now the only thing that remained was the name.

"I have one. Let’s call it the Treasure Chests Team!" Li Chunhua instantly raised her hand.

No one voiced their thoughts. For Gong Panli and Mr. Fang, it wasn’t important. For Siri and Mantou, they didn’t have any opinions, thinking that it was very suitable, while Tan Ge and his friend didn’t have the guts.

Thus, on that morning, the news spread about the lineup, which was the most talked about for the rest of the day. The inner ring and those supporters of Gong Feitian and Lightning Fist’s mercenary team all laughed until their stomachs hurt.

A grandma and a dog? Just how desperate were Gong Panli and the Outer District?

While those that were genuinely concerned for the Outer District came in ignitio and knocked on the door of Mr. Fang’s gym, one of them was his father’s trusted subordinate, bringing a key, an old map, and his father’s message.

Li Chunhua and the other, brimming with the spirit of gossiping, perked their ears.

"Director Gong said this key holds his private warehouse with supplies that can last you and the Outer District for several months. He wished you to forfeit."
