Apocalypse Awakening

Chapter 227 The Suspicious Person
"Come on, I don't think you guys are here to catch up with me." He came to Chen Hui's office and poured them two cups of hot water.

He was very happy to see Ning Qiu and Jiang Ling coming. If it weren't for their support, this fortress would not have been built in such a short period of time.

"We received a report that someone in Xidu stole the soul book tablet and fled to Mount Shaluli. We came here to find the person who stole the soul book tablet and obtain the soul book tablet from him." Ning Qiu said.

Chen Hui frowned slightly. Obviously, he didn't know about this matter at all. During this period of time, he was busy building the fortress and had no time to pay attention to the outside world.

Moreover, he lived in this kind of place, and the communication was very poor. When many things reached his ears, they had already happened a long time ago.

"No wonder I have several awakened people here these days." Chen Hui was thoughtful.

"Who are the people here?" Jiang Ling asked quickly.

"The members of the Awakened Alliance in the Western Capital, and their strength is not bad, they told me that they needed to stay for a while to capture some corpse beast, so I didn't pay much attention." Chen Hui said.

From this point of view, these people should have come here for the Soul Book Tablet, and as for catching corpse beasts, that was all an excuse.

"How long have they lived here?"

"It's been about seven or eight days."

Ning Qiu and Jiang Ling looked at each other, wondering if the people from the Western Capital Awakened Alliance had discovered something, or why would they have stayed for so many days.

"You have to keep our arrival a secret for us," Ning Qiu said.

Chen Hui nodded, he still understands this truth, otherwise Ning Qiu would not be in a hurry to introduce himself when he saw him just now.

Chen Hui declared to the outside world that Ning Qiu and Jiang Ling were awakened people who defected from other mountain tribes and intended to join them.

Of course, Ning Qiu's current name is Qiu Ning. After all, he is the newcomer king of China, in case the awakened ones in the western capital are suspicious.

For a large tribe like the Tianbing tribe, it is not surprising that awakened people from other tribes join. After all, if they are powerful, people will come to join them.

Moreover, everyone thought that Ning Qiu and Jiang Ling were really just junior awakened people, so they would not doubt it.

During this period of time, a lot of people from the Tianbing tribe joined, almost all of them defected from other tribes, probably because they felt very safe after seeing the construction of the Tianbing Fortress.

Chen Hui is also a person with ideals, and he hopes to unify all the tribes in Shaluli Mountain, and then build Tianbing Fortress into a small city.

Although it is difficult to see zombies in Daxue Mountain, there are corpse beasts, but they are rarely seen at ordinary times, but once some corpse beasts appear, they are a group.

The tribe that can withstand a group of corpse beasts, and now the entire Shaluli Mountain, is probably the only Tianbing tribe.

Chen Hui, the newcomer in the past few days, has a list record. There are about 20 people, and a dozen of them can be confirmed to have defected from other tribes. There is no problem. The rest are Ning Qiu needs to investigate the object.

In the Tianbing tribe, except for some elderly and children, everyone has a corresponding job.

And every day a small group went out to hunt, Ning Qiu asked Chen Hui to arrange him in a team of several suspicious people, deliberately trying to get close, hoping to find something out of them.

But after a few days, Ning Qiu found nothing. From his point of view, these people were normal, and there seemed to be nothing wrong.

"Could that guy have left Shaluli Mountain?"

At night, Ning Qiu and Jiang Ling huddled together in one room because there was no spare room.

The room is not big, there is only a table, the bed is an iron frame bed, and it is the kind of upper and lower floors, but it is quite comfortable with thick bedding.

"It shouldn't be so fast. You know, the people from the Western Capital Awakened Alliance haven't left yet." Jiang Ling sat cross-legged on the bed, ready to enter meditation.

"I hope you don't get nothing." Ning Qiu sighed, then put an intermediate corpse core into his mouth, and began to practice.

He has now reached an advanced level in the Artifact and Soul system, but it will take some time to consolidate, and the Superman system is still at the intermediate level.

Ning Qiu really felt that time was not enough, wishing to spend 24 hours on cultivation.

In the middle of the night, the Tianbing Fortress was silent, only the sound of the night wind blowing in the valley.

Ning Qiu had just finished his meditation, and looked at the time, it was about three hours before dawn.

In order to ensure the daily practice time, he can only reduce his sleep time now.

Just when he was about to lie down, he suddenly heard a sound from outside, mixed with shouts.

……

In the fortress, three people were chasing one person, and these four people were all awakened.

The one who was beaten up was an earth-type awakener, and among the other three people, there was a high-level fire-type awakener, and the other two were intermediate-level awakeners.

The earth element awakener was not very strong either, he fled in a panic after being beaten.

Many people were awakened by the sound of fighting and came out one after another.

"Stop!" Chen Hui came out and yelled at the four of them.

Those three people were the employees of the Awakened Alliance in Western Capital, but they didn't stop because of Chen Hui's appearance.

Chen Hui snorted coldly, and a jet of water shot up into the sky, sending an alliance employee flying.

Subsequently, the water column quickly condensed into ice, and an icicle with a diameter of one meter suddenly appeared.

"Advanced Awakened?" The three of them were taken aback for a moment. Unexpectedly, the leader of this tribe was actually a high-level Awakened, and the ability of the water system seemed to be somewhat special.

Talents like this really don't understand why they stay in this kind of place, is it just because they want to be a local emperor?

"We are members of the Judgment Hall of the Western Capital Awakened Alliance. This person has stolen the alliance's secrets. I hope you don't interfere." Among the alliance staff, the senior awakened person immediately shouted.

Hearing this, Ning Qiu and Jiang Ling looked at each other, wondering if they had discovered the person who stole the soul book tablet?

Chen Hui didn't speak, but just looked at the man who was besieged. This man was one of the few people listed as suspicious by Ning Qiu.

"I've already said, I didn't steal any soul book slabs, even if you kill me, it's useless." The man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then said.

"Then why do you want to hide your identity? You are obviously an awakened person, but you pretend to be an ordinary person."

"I want to live the life of an ordinary person, isn't it okay?" the man said stubbornly.

"Stop talking nonsense, hand over the soul book slate, or you will be decapitated today."

After they finished speaking, they started fighting again, but the man who was beaten up was clearly exhausted, and he was only an intermediate-level awakened earth element, so he was no match for the three of them at all.

After less than 2 minutes, he was caught by those three people, and a wood-type awakened person restrained him with thorn vines.
