Chapter 288 Recruiting Team Members

Chen Ya’s face changed, saying, “Are the rescue team and miners okay now?”

Chu Han explained, “Currently, they are still deep in the mine, not in danger. However, there are mutated beasts everywhere now. They cannot leave. If the mutated beasts find them, there is only a dead end. We need to start the rescue immediately.”

Chen Ya said seriously, “I understand.”

Immediately, the call ended. Chen Ya looked at Ye Xuan and said, “Ye Xuan, you should have heard our conversation just now. I’m entrusting you to organize the team for this rescue mission. Can you handle it?”

In the past, Chen Ya would probably have directly assigned this kind of mission to her son-in-law.

Although the end result would be the same, as the organizer of the mission, one would inevitably gain more prestige than ordinary members. Chen Ya had high hopes for Ye Xuan, but Long Hanjie was her son-in-law after all.

However, now, due to the teleportation array, Chen Ya’s attitude towards Ye Xuan had changed drastically.

In her eyes, Ye Xuan was far more outstanding than her son-in-law. No matter how many descendants Long Hanjie had, no matter how powerful their alliance was, they could not compare to Ye Xuan and Su Mengli, this couple.

Therefore, she gave Ye Xuan some opportunities in organizing and decision-making in advance to develop his abilities in this area.

She had already decided that Ye Xuan was more suitable to be the future flag bearer for humanity than Long Hanjie.

Upon hearing Chen Ya’s words, Ye Xuan immediately said, “Absolutely no problem!”

He needed a lot of reputation points, and this rescue mission was a great opportunity to shine!

Chen Ya nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll leave this mission to you. This mission will require a long journey. My advice to you is to select no more than ten people and go lightly armed.

Furthermore, focus on rescuing people during the mission and do not delay too long with the mutated beasts. Do you understand?”

Ye Xuan nodded, “I understand, thank you, Instructor Chen.”

Chen Ya, sounding a bit weary, said, “Alright, you can go now. This is a great opportunity for you to show your skills. Grow as quickly as you can. The pressure on us old folks is increasing.”

Chen Ya, like Chu Han and the others, carried a considerable amount of pressure. The difference was that Chu Han and his group never showed their pressure externally, no matter how great it was.

Chen Ya, on the other hand, was different. She was a woman, and sometimes she would show her vulnerable side to release her stress.

Ye Xuan nodded and then left Chen Ya’s office.

Twenty minutes later, an announcement was made in the college’s broadcasting room: “Emergency mission in Jincheng, need to organize a strong team of about ten people to go for rescue. Interested students can come to the staircase classroom to sign up!”

The geniuses on the Dragon List were all outstanding individuals. Although they might not be as good as Ye Xuan, Su Mengli, or Long Hanjie, who were SSS-class geniuses, in the capital, they were all flag bearers in their own right.

They all believed in their own strength and wanted a chance to showcase it.

Therefore, for this type of mission, everyone was very enthusiastic. After the announcement was made in the broadcasting room, the geniuses on the Dragon List flocked in, showing great enthusiasm.

Long Hanjie, Xia Mo, and Zhou Yun, of course, could not miss such a mission. When they arrived, Long Hanjie immediately asked, “Ye Xuan, are you organizing this mission?”

Ye Xuan nodded, “Yes, Instructor Chen arranged for me to organize it.”

Long Hanjie was a bit puzzled and asked, “Doesn’t my mother-in-law trust me anymore?”

Beside him, Xia Mo said, “I think it’s not that Instructor Chen doesn’t trust you, but maybe she’s just one of your many mothers-in-law? As one of your countless mothers-in-law, does she really need to favor you so much?”

Long Hanjie sighed, “Makes sense. It seems relying on my face to make a living is not working anymore. I’ll have to rely on my strength. Little Xuan, we all want to participate in this mission. Will you refuse?”

Ye Xuan smiled, “Of course not, all of you are top-notch. We’ve cooperated a few times before.”

At this moment, Zhang Yu also said, “Big Brother Ye, I’m interested in this mission. Can I join?”

Ye Xuan asked, “What is your ability development class?”

Zhang Yu was a bit embarrassed, “Eight percent.”

Zhang Yu was an SS-class Star-Shifting Combat, with an ability development of eight percent, which was actually quite good. However, compared to Ye Xuan and the others, his strength was still lacking.

Ye Xuan smiled, “This mission is quite challenging. You’re still young, and your cultivation time is short. It’s better not to participate this time. I’ll bring you along next time.”

Zhang Yu felt a bit disappointed but understood that he still had a lot of room for growth.

So Zhang Yu nodded and said, “Big Brother Ye, I will continue to work hard.”

Then, Zhang Yu left the classroom to go and practice diligently.

At this time, Qin Kai walked over and said, “Count me in too!”

Qin Kai had received the Green Magic Set from Ye Xuan as a gift and had become familiar with it. The Green Magic Set, like the Nano Battle Armor, was an intelligent weapon with low operating difficulty, so Qin Kai had no problems with it.

The Green Magic Armor gave him powerful defense, and the Magic Glide gave him great mobility.

At the same time, the armor and glider were equipped with hot weapons such as flying knives, pumpkin bombs, and missiles, giving Qin Kai, who originally had no combat power, a decent fighting ability.

Of course, Qin Kai was worthy of all this, as Ye Xuan had gained much more from him.

Long Hanjie was unaware that Qin Kai had evolved into Green Magic Qin Kai.

He cautiously said, “Old Qin, maybe you should sit this one out. This time we are going to rescue people, which is quite dangerous, and your abilities may not be of much use…”

Qin Kai mysteriously smiled and said, “Hanjie, don’t underestimate me. I’m a different person now. Ye Xuan, can I join?”

The combat power of the Green Magic Set was enough for Qin Kai to join the team.

Ye Xuan immediately said, “Absolutely, you can join us.”

Qin Kai said earnestly, “Thank you.”

At this moment, Long Hanjie was a bit puzzled. Wasn’t the relationship between Ye Xuan and Qin Kai quite unusual? How did they suddenly become so close?

For Long Hanjie, whether with Qin Kai or Ye Xuan, his relationship with both of them was better than the relationship between Qin Kai and Ye Xuan. He had always been like a link between the two.

And now, the two of them inexplicably had a kind of tacit understanding, as if they had become even better friends than him, which made him feel like an outsider. It was quite uncomfortable for Long Hanjie, who felt like he had been left out.

It was like when Classmate A introduced his friend B to his friend C, and then B and C became better friends, leaving A feeling like an outsider. That was how Long Hanjie felt at the moment…
