Hearing that Feng Jun was leaving for a few days, the five women snapped out of their excitement.
They all clung to Feng Jun, not letting him go, insisting that he promise to bring them new clothes and snacks before they would release him.
When Feng Jun left the room to handle some chores, Hei Qin and Jiang Xueling, having equipped their prosthetics, chased after him from their room.
"There's something I still need to remind you about," Hei Qin said.
Since being brought back to Longmen Town to recover from her injuries, Hei Qin had abandoned the idea of re-establishing the Blackwater Merchant Guild.
Although on the surface she looked like a big sister in the wasteland world, deep down she still desperately needed a harbor to rely on.
Since only she and Jiang Xueling were left of the Blackwater Merchant Guild, Hei Qin simply latched onto Feng Jun, treating him as her haven.
Feng Jun was completely indifferent now; as long as Li Lu didn't object to him bringing more people home, a few more beauties wouldn't hurt.
Although Hei Qin and Jiang Xueling were two beautiful women with disabilities, their figures were excellent after installing their prosthetics, and playing some small games wasn't out of the question.
Seeing Hei Qin and Jiang Xueling's serious expressions, Feng Jun turned around and looked at them; "What's the matter?"
The snow in the yard had been mostly cleared.
Hei Qin pointed to the remaining snow piles and said, "Yellow-green snow, this indicates a radiation level of four.
The environment we usually live in, if it's good, has a radiation level of two.
Any slightly better Evolver can endure it with their body, but once the radiation level reaches three, your and Li Lu's bodies probably can't withstand it, can they?"
Feng Jun nodded after hearing this.
In this house, there was one man and two women; he and Li Lu were Evolvers with radiation-resistant physiques.
Although Hei Qin and Jiang Xueling had received Gene Agent injections and undergone physical modifications, their physical strength was only slightly superior to ordinary people.
As for Gu Yaoyao and Gu Yunyun, they had baseline physiques when they first came out of the Refuge, and although they had received Gene Agent injections, there were no signs of evolution.
Therefore, this snowfall with high radiation would indeed affect most of the survivors in New Shangqing City.
Feng Jun had already considered this, which was why he arranged for Song Peng to lead troops to clear the snow in the urban area.
However, Hei Qin and Jiang Xueling were telling him something else.
"Besides a large accumulation of flesh infected by piye bacteria, there's another condition for the growth of a Blood Nest, and that is a massive amount of radiation.
The radiation inside a nuclear crater stimulates the Blood Nest's cells, accelerating the growth of these abominable flesh masses," Hei Qin said; "Tian Jia's incident was a tragedy, but it also exposed a powerful enemy, which is the Blood Nest Mother in the Shangqing City Wasteland."
At this point, Feng Jun already understood what Hei Qin was trying to convey: the sudden increase in radiation would accelerate the Blood Nest's growth and evolution.
And the first thing a Blood Nest would do after growing was to hatch a large number of zombies, Mutants, and even high-level Mutants.
Hei Qin and Feng Jun met each other's gaze, and she nodded, saying, "Previously, Tian Jia was responsible for UAV reconnaissance of the Blood Nest in Old Shangqing City.
He accumulated a large amount of data and information.
You can organize the Hongwen Gang's spoils of war to see if there are any useful clues."
"Okay, I'll have someone do that.
If there's any reaction, I'll immediately formulate a countermeasure," Feng Jun nodded.
Then he added, "Have you considered what I mentioned earlier about making you the head of the New Shangqing City Bounty Hunter Guild? I'd like you to take on this role."
After the establishment of New Shangqing City, it completely inherited everything from the former Huaicheng District, including the Bounty Hunter Guild.
Bounty Hunters are different from scavenger groups.
Scavengers are ordinary civilian groups who form gangs to go to less dangerous places to salvage and scavenge.
Their numbers are quite large; a large group might have hundreds of people, while a small one might only have three or two people, or even just one, and still be called a scavenger.
Bounty Hunters, on the other hand, are smaller, more experienced combat groups, but their numbers are not very large.
This is because they are either experienced soldier groups or Evolvers who have already begun to evolve.
Both their individual combat skills and their team combat effectiveness are stronger than those of scavengers.
Some wealthier Bounty Hunters even equip themselves with military mechanical exoskeletons and Power Armor; for example, Li Lu was a Bounty Hunter before.
Before the civil war in Huaicheng District began, some Bounty Hunters received inside information, so they all left under the pretext of taking on missions.
As for why they received the information, it was because both warring factions wanted to hire these Bounty Hunters as their enforcers.
However, since they were Bounty Hunters, they not only had to be good fighters and physically strong, but also had to have good brains, otherwise they would have died on missions long ago.
After these Bounty Hunters detected the information, they quietly left Huaicheng District and only gradually returned after Feng Jun established New Shangqing City.
The number of these Bounty Hunters was quite substantial, around three thousand people.
Feng Jun naturally couldn't let these people wander around idly, so he re-established the Bounty Hunter Guild, but the president's position remained vacant.
After all, managing a group of Evolvers was much more troublesome than managing ordinary people.
After much thought, Feng Jun thought of Hei Qin.
As the former head of the Blackwater Merchant Guild, she was certainly capable of handling this job.
However, at that time, Hei Qin did not immediately agree, saying instead that she needed to consider it.
Now, Feng Jun brought up the matter again.
Hei Qin's delicate brows furrowed.
It wasn't that she couldn't handle the job, but that she truly wanted to rest.
However, Jiang Xueling nudged her from the side.
"Feng Jun has so many things to do, we need to help him share the burden.
Just leave it to us; it's no problem for Sister Hei Qin to be the president and me to be the vice president."
Seeing this, Hei Qin could only nod helplessly.
Things were exactly as Jiang Xueling said.
It really wasn't good to just rely on Feng Jun and do nothing.
She and Jiang Xueling weren't like Li Lu, who had experienced life-and-death moments with Feng Jun, so it was better to make some contributions.
Seeing Hei Qin agree, a weight was lifted from Feng Jun's heart.
Managing those Bounty Hunters was also a big deal; if utilized properly, they could do many things for Feng Jun.
After all, there were many Evolvers among the Bounty Hunters; as long as the remuneration was sufficient, they could do a lot.
So, Feng Jun temporarily postponed his return to the real world and immediately called Han Chong, instructing him to arrange for Hei Qin and Jiang Xueling to take over the Bounty Hunter Guild.
Since they were to assume the presidency of the Bounty Hunter Guild, they naturally needed to be able to command respect from these Bounty Hunters.
During the Huaicheng District period, these Bounty Hunters had gathered to cause trouble more than once, for various reasons.
Some demanded higher bounties, while others were dissatisfied with certain actions of the five factions.
Therefore, before Hei Qin and Jiang Xueling took office, Feng Jun still needed to give these people a stern warning.
