Chapter 474: Chapter 209: The Third Hand_1

One minute earlier.

As soon as Wang Tao heard the sound of the plane, he immediately took out his military radio and started trying to contact the pilot.

“Zzz… Zzz… Zzz…”

“This is Wang Tao, this is Wang Tao…”

A moment later.

“Zzz… Wang Tao… is that you… Zzz…”

Wang Tao was just giving it a try out of habit but didn’t really expect to get through, and most importantly, it was Colonel Luo Guozhong on the plane!

What a coincidence!

Since it was someone he knew, that made things easier.

“Colonel Luo, what a fate! I’m right below you in the gourd-shaped plaza. We have nearly a hundred survivors here! So, cough cough… how about an air-drop.”

Wang Tao had a thick face; despite having asked for air-drops many times before, he still had the nerve to ask again.

“Zzz… One moment… Zzz…”

The signal on the radio was poor, and it was hard to tell if Colonel Luo had any emotion in his voice. Probably none, otherwise he would have definitely refused.

Wang Tao was worried that Lan Yulian would order the team to move on, so he quickly used the vehicle-mounted radio to say to her:

“Wait a bit, I’m calling for an air-drop.”

“?”

Lan Yulian was confused, but subconsciously she ordered the team to stop moving forward.

Wang Tao continued talking to Colonel Luo with the military radio.

“Colonel Luo! I really appreciate it! I’ll be going to the military base soon, and I’ll definitely buy you a drink when I get there!”

Wang Tao thought he needed to find a way to get some liquor since he said he’d treat him to a drink, he would definitely keep his word.

“Zzz… Haha… Zzz… Hope… to see you again… Zzz…”

Colonel Luo seemed to laugh over the radio, but Wang Tao couldn’t hear him clearly.

Just then, the plane flew directly overhead.

“Zzz… Air-drop… I’m leaving… Zzz…”

One after another, the air-drops appeared from the back end of the plane, crashing down towards the convoy!

“My goodness!”

Lan Yulian was flabbergasted!

So was Lu Yingfeng, who was in the same vehicle!

Were these air-drops really called in?

Or was it just a coincidence?

But what were the chances they would stumble upon this just by luck?

“How… how did you do it?”

Lan Yulian quickly asked over the radio.

After saying a few more words into the military radio, and watching the plane fly away with no more signal, Wang Tao then picked up the vehicle-mounted radio.

He nonchalantly bragged:

“I have connections up top.”

“…”

Both women were somewhat stunned and at the moment didn’t know what to say.

It wasn’t just the two of them; Nie Siyan in another vehicle was also bewildered. She was on the same channel as Lan Yulian and Wang Tao, so she heard their conversation as well.

“Brother Wang! You… are impressive!”

Nie Siyan wanted to say more, but in the end, she only gathered two words.

“Isn’t that obvious? Now go grab those air-drops!”

“Yes!”

Nie Siyan ordered people to go collect the air-drops.

Lu Yingfeng at the clubhouse was relatively calm and had already issued orders.

The location where the convoy was situated was a not-so-small plaza, and with the pilot’s great skill, the air-drops had landed precisely on the plaza.

But the noise from the transport plane was too loud, attracting a large number of zombies. Mad Demon Zombies appeared in the distance.

“Quick, quick, quick! Gather the air-drops, then retreat!”

Lu Yingfeng got out of the vehicle, dividing the people into two groups, one to collect the air-drops, the other to kill the attracted zombies.

Nie Siyan, Xu Xiaojun, and others also rushed out, with only Wang Tao, Jiang Shixue, and Lan Yulian still in the car.

Wang Tao roughly counted, and there were about a dozen air-drops.

That was no small amount; many people had never even seen a single air-drop before, and seeing so many at once, they were incredibly excited.

At that moment, someone knocked on the car door. Lan Yulian was standing outside.

Today, Lan Yulian was dressed almost identically to Lu Yingfeng, covered up from head to toe, with only her exquisite little face exposed.

After Wang Tao opened the door, Lan Yulian climbed aboard and just stared intently at Wang Tao.

Wang Tao waved his hand in front of her face.

“Lost your mind?”

Lan Yulian brushed his hand away without saying a word, still looking at him intensely.

“…”

Despite Lan Yulian being a beauty, being stared at like this was rather unsettling.

Wang Tao placed his hand on Lan Yulian’s head, then forcibly turned her gaze outside the car.

Lan Yulian stubbornly turned her head back and said seriously:

“Wang Tao, I must get you to join our club!”

“Good luck with that.”

Wang Tao encouraged her.

“…”

Lan Yulian left.

She had wanted to ask how Wang Tao did it, but in the end, she refrained from asking. After all, it was Wang Tao’s personal secret, and it wasn’t right for her to keep prying.

But she had already decided that she would spare no expense to get Wang Tao into their club!

Whether it was his good character highly spoken of by her good friend Zhang Hong, or the high-quality Crystal Cores and Potions that Wang Tao had managed to get through some channels, or his ability to call in air-drops… Each of these alone was worth the effort to recruit him, not to mention they were all found in one person!

She had to bring Wang Tao over!

Such a talent must not be let slip through to benefit the Firefly Club! Moreover, she had observed that Wang Tao didn’t seem to feel any sense of belonging to the Firefly Club… This was an opportunity to poach!

Returning to her own vehicle, Lan Yulian suddenly had several plans in mind…

Wang Tao wasn’t concerned with Lan Yulian’s words; he turned to look at Jiang Shixue.
