Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback novel Chapter 635

Chapter 635: 343 Sneaky Schemes

Because of what Fang Yuxin said, the already uneasy crowd grew even more suspicious and anxious. Especially the various Corpse Hunting Teams, who were unaware when they accepted the mission that it was in fact a death trap set by Bai Zhengyi and Zhao Qiankun to eliminate dissenters. Seeing the mission being jointly issued by the White Wolf Mercenary Corps and Qiankun Mercenary Group, they had thought it was a combined effort of two major Mercenary Corps concentrating their main forces in an assault.

If that were the case, then both the success rate and safety would be high. Coupled with the hefty rewards, they had picked up the mission. Who could have foreseen that upon arriving this morning, they would find that the White Wolf Mercenary Corps and Qiankun Mercenary Group had only sent about two thousand people each, and together with their assorted Corpse Hunting Teams, totaled barely over six thousand in number—how were they supposed to take Luyun County?

There were millions of zombies there! It was practically suicide for these people to go! What on earth were the White Wolf Mercenary Corps and Qiankun Mercenary Group thinking? Even if it was just a tentative attack, the number of troops sent was also far too few, right?

Corpse Hunters who could survive in the apocalypse were no fools. Once these people thought about it, they could tell that something was fishy! So, many immediately decided to give up on the mission.

Indeed, Beishi Base did allow for the opportunity to give up on a mission after it was taken, after all, accidents happen all the time, and sometimes people who take on a mission might encounter an accident preventing them from participating. So, in order to show the more human side of the Base, and also to ensure the number of people needed for missions, one could withdraw after accepting a mission.

However, if one were to withdraw from a mission, there would be quite severe penalties, so unless there really was an accident, people generally wouldn’t choose to withdraw after accepting a mission.

At the same time, Zhao Qiankun was staring daggers at Fang Yuxin, extremely aggravated by her obliviousness to the situation. He believed he was acting in good faith by stopping Fang Yuxin from participating in the mission, only to find that Fang Yuxin was completely ungrateful and stubbornly intent on marching towards death! He felt a bitter taste in his heart, furious and worried but unable to find a suitable reason to keep Fang Yuxin behind. _{freēwebnovel.com}
