Chapter 253: Chapter 201: Multimillion Fortune, Choosing Sides_3

Red Snake Family, Delugu Family, and Rose Family.

Apart from the members of these three families, the rest of Chen Qing’s sworn enemies were the group from Cross Star.

Chen Qing had been tracking their whereabouts, but it was as if they had vanished from this world, utterly untraceable.

She had thought of buying information from the Survivor Observation Team, but unfortunately, they did not offer such services.

They did not intend to, either.

If there were no news about Cross Star, they could not care less.

That was quite in keeping with the style of the Survivor Observation Team, focusing only on news.

Arriving at the morgue in the medical area, six corpses were neatly placed on the tables.

Mechanical Heart, following the customs of Chen Qing, had covered the bodies with a white cloth.

Pulling back the white cloth, Chen Qing checked the identities of these invaders.

Three of them were from the Deserted People, the remaining three, one was probably a Bounty Hunter, quite well-known too.

Not quite on the level of Shuangwei Feihuo, but they also had made a name for themselves.

Looking at the wounds on their bodies, they were likely caused by Bai Can.

Bai Can had been included by Chen Qing into the new Yin Tiger Army, just like the Mao Rabbit Army, both part of the battle mechanical armies.

Besides these four, the identities of the remaining two were unknown; Chen Qing had never heard of them.

Chen Qing guessed that these people had all received the bounty from the Chi She Family.

The bounty from the Beast Clan was simple and unadorned, just money, and not much at that, they were rather poor.

The Red Snake Family was wealthy and possessed many valuable things.

If these people were short on money, they wouldn’t necessarily take such a risk to kill her, especially since they knew she was here in Shang Jia.

It must have been some item promised by the Chi She Family that persuaded them.

However, those Deserted People could also just be purely looking to rob her.

"Send the news of these three Deserted People’s assassination attempts to Blue Ghost."

The Isolated Island Blood Sect, comprised of Deserted People, was numerous, each of a highly belligerent and aggressive disposition, difficult to subdue.

It was mostly through military force that Blue Ghost suppressed them, thus forming the current loosely structured Blood Sect.

Probably, there were still some among those Deserted People eyeing her.

Warning had been given, Chen Qing had already been warned.

If more came, she just happened to be in need of Extraordinary Points.

Chen Qing’s warnings would most likely have the opposite effect.

She was aware of this, but did not care at all, it would be just what she wanted.

"Let’s leave them for now, I’ll deal with them after some time."

Chen Qing’s work was plentiful now, assembling the factory, tuning the factory machines, testing the Cooking Grass, repairing broken machinery, disassembling blueprints...

She was only one person, incapable of multitasking

Chen Qing even thought about hiring the Mechanics from Demon Dragon and Ghost Bone to help her with these matters.

Handing the matter of the Cooking Fruit over to Mechanical Heart for the time being, Chen Qing devoted herself fully to the repair of the Assistant Bee Nest.

Indeed, she needed to finish repairing the Hive first, to increase the number of Assistant Bees.

Members of the Ghost Bone Pirate Group who came afterward wanting to present Chen Qing with thank-you gifts, found the door shut in their faces due to her hasty retreat into seclusion.

She only briefly stepped away from her repair work when the war activity update ended.

The game system was somewhat tricky; at the end of this update, the sounds of heavy bombardments and mournful cries suddenly rang in Chen Qing’s ears.

The sounds were so vivid that she felt as if she was truly on the battlefield!

Survivors who heard this update completion notification thought they had been transported again.

They were nearly scared to death.

The world is full of wonders, and indeed, some survivors were literally scared to death, extremely unlucky.

This also sufficiently showed the depth of malice by the so-called system.

With the game update concluded and the war activity begun, Chen Qing briefly stepped away from her work.

Upon opening the system panel, a massive faction selection option immediately appeared.

Red Camp, on the side of the Mechanical Association.

Blue Camp, on the side of the Association traitors.

Both camps detailed the various forces belonging to them for survivors to consider.

Survivors had only 72 hours to decide, and before choosing their faction, without exception, they could not use any system function.

Only after confirming their faction could they find out what exactly this system update entailed.

Unlike other survivors, in addition to the Red and Blue Camp, Chen Qing had another choice.

[Congratulations, dear survivor, considering your strength and reputation, you are granted an additional choice.]

An independent Grey Camp, neutral and separate from the Red and Blue Camps.

This time the faction selection for the event was quite interesting.

Neither black nor white, neither side could represent justice; this merely reflected their own positions.
