Chapter 1791 Thanks to them

The lively atmosphere gradually subsided, and the excitement and grievances in the team members' eyes slowly settled into a sense of reassurance and warmth. They gathered around Xu Ying and whispered about the bits and pieces of their journey, their words filled with longing for headquarters and cherishing of their reunion.

Standing to the side, Lu Jingcheng watched the heartwarming scene unfold before him. His tense nerves, which had been taut the entire way, completely relaxed, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. Only then did he remember Li Luo, Shi Xinxin, and Chu Yuanqing standing not far away. He quickly stepped forward and, smiling, briefly introduced them to Xu Ying:

"Sir, these three are Li Luo, Chu Yuanqing, and Shi Xinxin. Thanks to their help along the way, we were able to reach headquarters so smoothly during this mission to escort the reagents."

In fact, even before the mission started, Xu Ying already knew the situation of these three people, down to the smallest details, from the details synchronized with the Jinling base and Lu Jingcheng's daily reports. Now, seeing them in person, her eyes were full of gentle recognition and warmth, without the slightest bit of unfamiliarity.

He knew that Chu Yuanqing was Lu Jingcheng's childhood friend, and their friendship was deeper than that of brothers. When Lu Jingcheng first joined the Blazing Fire Team, it was Chu Yuanqing who personally escorted him to headquarters to report for duty. At that time, the two of them had met him once, and the impression was particularly deep.

They also knew that Chu Yuanqing was a rare psychic ability user in the apocalypse, with strong and precise mental power, able to keenly sense hidden risks around him and avoid zombie hordes or enemy ambushes in advance.

At the same time, he is also a professional biological research talent. His core expertise is in research related to zombie viruses. Whether it is to go deep into dangerous areas to extract virus samples, analyze the characteristics of virus mutations, or preserve sample materials, he does it rigorously, professionally, and with excellent skills.

More importantly, Xu Ying also knew about Chu Yuanqing's past.

He was once deceived by information asymmetry and mistakenly entered a secret research institute under the Destruction Force, where he was forced to conduct virus-related research.

Despite being in a dangerous situation, he always adhered to his bottom line and never participated in any activities that harmed the survivors. Later, he took the opportunity to leave the research institute, leaving behind all the enemy virus research system, core data, and experimental logic that he had mastered within the institute.

It was precisely because of this special experience that Chu Yuanqing was exceptionally familiar with the virus research methods and sample processing techniques of the destructive forces.

During this mission, he not only protected the team's safety with his psychic abilities, but also took charge of the collection, preliminary analysis and risk assessment of virus samples with his professional knowledge. He was also able to accurately avoid the traps set by the enemy for the virus samples, which added key assistance to the mission's progress.

Chu Yuanqing and Shi Xinxin were already a couple. They supported each other, had great chemistry, and took care of each other and fought side by side along the way, becoming a warm and resilient bond in the team. Xu Ying was already aware of this.

Xu Ying also knew Shi Xinxin in great detail, knowing that she was Li Luo's best friend since childhood, and that the two had a deep friendship and had always protected each other in the apocalypse, never being separated.

It was clear that she was no ordinary support user, but a rare level 9 dual-elemental ability user in the apocalypse. She was powerful and her combat ability was in no way inferior to Lu Jingcheng's. She was proficient in both close combat and ability manipulation, and had explosive power. Along the way, she charged into danger of being surrounded by zombie hordes and intercepted by enemies to protect her teammates.

At the same time, she is easygoing, cheerful and straightforward, without any ulterior motives. She is sincere and warm-hearted, making it very easy and comfortable to get along with. Even in dangerous situations, she always likes to use her lively and straightforward tone to amuse everyone, dispel the tension and depression of the journey, and relieve everyone's fatigue and pressure.
