While Su Xing and He Shang were curious and Chu Han excited, footsteps came from behind.
"Pat!""Pat!"
The noise leather shoes made stepping on bricks sounded like a cat walking with vigorous momentum, the pace was really powerful.
"Zzzz-"
As the gate was opening, it came to a sudden stop and with lightning speed, it closed again; its closing speed was really spectacular in contrast with its slow opening speed. He Shang and Su Xing were shocked and thought the slow opening was just a trick.
A joking voice sounded, "I didn"t expect that someone else would have reached this place earlier than me."
Chu Han turned back with a serious expression; it was like he was facing an enemy.
He Shang and Su Xing were also shocked and turned back staring at the stairs.
The first thing they saw was a pair of polished black leather shoes descending the stairs and right after a delicate black suit. A man with soft face and narrow eyes, that could beat any man and charm any woman, appeared; his hair was tied in a bun. He looked so delicate like the apocalypse hadn"t affected him at all. He Shang and Su Xing couldn"t recognize him, but he was familiar to Chu Han.
He looked like a student with red lips and white teeth but he was as cunning as a viper. Was the newcomer "him"? It was really troublesome!
Chu Han tried to suppress his presence and stood beside the other two so that he wouldn"t attract much attention. The man looked t Chu Han trying to decrease the sense of his existence at the corner. He looked at them with disdain, "Three survivors?"
The proud and mad He Shang, along with Su Xing, wanted to argue with him but Chu Han"s arms stopped them. At that moment, they looked at Chu Han, to their surprise a heavy expression was on his face which he was struggling to hide.
Was their boss afraid of him?
There was a wave in his heart. It was him, Xiao Qi! Why would he be there!?
Xiao Qi was a powerful famous expert in his previous life, ranked 23rd; his full name Xiao Qi Childe. He was the same as Bai Yun"er, he reached that rank through sheer power and his evolution, he hadn"t a special talent or enhanced abilities.
He was so normal-looking that his strength shocked others.
At that moment, Xiao Qi was not an ordinary person, his life fluctuation was so obvious that Chu Han could instantly see through him.
Evolution: phase 2!
Not only that, that person had practiced martial arts for twenty years before evolving, so his strength was far superior to Chu Han"s. He was not only stronger than phase 1 people, but he was currently the top in phase 2. It was like giving wings to a tiger. He did not intend hiding his strength, so he fully displayed it.
He was so arrogant that others wanted to beat him to a pulp!
Xiao Qi was really satisfied seeing Chu Han and his men standing there.
"You do know about yourself." He said and reached the gate as a king. There was no knocking or code; he just tied up the sleeves casually and talked, "Ye Lao, have you finished the things that I need?" Xiao Qi"s high att.i.tude did not anger Chu Han. He observed the ten years younger Xiao Qi. Compared with Xiao Qin ten years later, the young man had a serpent temperament, the sinister and crafty Xiao Qi Childe.
"Xiao boy, you are not welcome!" A pale and powerful voice sounded in the speaker with thick hostility.
Xiao Qi smiled casually, "Ye Lao, we no longer live in civilized times. I won"t use the violent approach but I have to warn you that you have only one year to complete it. I won"t be that well-behaved if you don"t complete it."
Chu Han was nervous since Xiao Qi could threat the one behind the door.
There was no response but Xiao Qi didn"t care. He just looked disdainfully at Chu Han and his men and before leaving. In his eyes, no one would matter.
Chu Han looked at him leaving and countless thoughts bombarded his mind; the experts from his past were evolving really fast!
A month and a half had pa.s.sed since the apocalypse"s escalation, it was within Chu Han"s expectations for a phase 2 to appear. Actually, there may even be phase 3 evolved people. Chu Han"s strength was average and he would struggle like other ordinary people if he didn"t possess the Meltdown System.
In Huaxia alone there were many people with excellent abilities, about 10.000 had reached phase 1, but the number of phase 2 and 3 was unknown. Thinking about the strong people from his previous life, Chu Han"s eyes revealed a faint glint; fighting against phase 1 zombies was no challenge to them. Currently, had those people found the black crystals or not?
Chu Han should be within the top five thousand but out of the top two hundred based on his phase 1 evolution, coupled with his enhanced accuracy and strength. If he wanted to face the phase 2 Xiao Qi, he first had to observe him. Chu Han could never have imagined meeting so many talented people that fast and how overbearing Xiao Qi could be. It was normal that he could build up his business in ten years; his 23rd rank was not just for bragging.
Sh*t! He still needed two hundred credit to evolve to phase 2!
Suddenly, he thought of Bai Yun"er staying in the vehicle, but shook his head. Bai Yun"er belonged to the category of gaining strength as they matured. She did not devote to improving her strength, in contrast with other evolved people. She would just break through each phase without much effort till she reached the peak. Currently, Bai Yun"er didn"t stand a chance against Xiao Qi, even though she was powerful.
Chu Han said nothing after Xiao Qi"s departure and stayed at the same place for ten minutes. Xiao Qi hadn"t really left, his faint breathing came from the stairs. His concealing ability was worse than his future self, but he could fool He Shang and Su Xing.
"Boss, who is that person?" Su Xing asked.
"Idol, his clothes looked so good." He Shang was strange.
