The sunrise on the ice plains is always not that obvious, but in places where there are human evolvers, one can tell whether the day has begun just by listening to the sounds.
At a certain moment, the camp, which had been quiet for several hours, became lively again.
Qin Ge, after a night of rest, had his injuries improve a bit, and his mental state was better than before. He tidied himself up and came to greet the strong ones from the east.
However, the warrior who stopped him informed him that Ye Zhongming was busy and could not meet him for the time being.
Qin Ge had no choice but to return, feeling frustrated. After thinking for a while, he took some people to the front-line camp of the human alliance, hoping to see if there was an opportunity to absorb some individuals into his battle team.
Inside Ye Zhongming's tent, Xia Bai, Red Hair, Xiao Min, and Xiao Xuan were all present, but everyone looked a bit helpless as they glanced at Red Hair.
Red Hair smiled apologetically. "I'm sorry, but this is his decision. You all know I have to listen to him."
Xia Bai and Red Hair usually got along well. Although they didn't talk much, they understood each other. Looking at Red Hair's expression, Xia Bai found it hard to be angry; he just furrowed his brows, his fingers sliding across the long handle of his black sickle, deep in thought.
"But, but the boss is just one person. It's too dangerous. Although he came to help, how could those mutated lives know? You mentioned there are nearly twenty level eight lives inside. If they want to harm the boss, can that black cat stop them?"
Xiao Min was nominally one of the vice captains of the red dress guard, but everyone knew that Xia Bai was actually the one in control due to the guard's strength and Ye Zhongming's trust. Her status in Cloud Summit was significant.
Usually, Xiao Min wouldn't talk to Red Hair like this, given Red Hair's strength and relationship with Ye Zhongming.
But now, she was a bit anxious. Ye Zhongming had entered Yakutsk alone, a place filled with a massive number of mutated lives. Perhaps the entire Cloud Summit could win if they fought together, but if it was just Ye Zhongming alone, the danger level was maddeningly high.
Carrying the pride and shame of Cloud Summit, but risking it alone, Xiao Min silently blamed her boss.
Red Hair was not angry either. "Since he made this decision, he must be confident. Although we didn't go with him, Big Yellow is with him, and there are two ice birds and Yangos in the sky. If danger arises, they can respond. I..."
She pointed at her head with her slender, pale fingers. "We can also be aware of things here. If something goes wrong, we will go for rescue."
Xiao Xuan sat quietly, watching these people talk. Just being able to sit in the tent was a recognition of his future, but right now, he really had no part in the conversation. However, that did not prevent him from understanding what was happening.
The boss actually went into Yakutsk?
Isn't that incredibly dangerous? But it should be fine, right?
The people in the tent fell silent, now they could only wait.
However, this silence did not last long before it was broken by voices from outside.
The few exchanged glances and walked out of the tent, seeing a considerable gathering of people at the entrance of the Cloud Summit camp.
They approached, and before reaching the spot, they heard several whistles.
Such matters were definitely not something Xia Bai and Red Hair would handle, so Xiao Min took the lead, quietly asking her people upon seeing their own.
It turned out that these people were evolvers under Peijia. They had been drinking and, upon seeing numerous clean women in the Cloud Summit camp, wanted to come in and cause trouble. Although they couldn't understand what these guys were saying, their expressions and gestures made it clear what they meant.
Most of the red dress guard had a past they wished to forget, and facing such insults made them particularly restless. The few female warriors responsible for guarding the entrance wore visibly grim expressions; with just a word from Xiao Min, they would twist these guys' heads off.
