Chapter 77: Chapter 77 Cooperation_1
At that moment, Wu Kun, the boss of Star Shield Security Company, Liu Guang, the boss of Cheetah Security Company, and Song Yuanlin, the boss of Yan Huang Security Company, exchanged glances, each seeing the wariness and helplessness in others’ eyes.
Originally, each of them had believed their biggest competitors to be each other.
Even this competition had begun last night.
But none of them had expected that now, an obscure company had suddenly taken the lead.
Although Chen Dalong’s Mad Dragon Security Company hadn’t secured the final victory yet, anyone with eyes could see which security company was stronger.

At this time, only Qin Yaowen of Heiyao Security Company managed to maintain a calm demeanor.
His conversation with Chen Dalong before they set off resurfaced in his mind.
The other party had not outright rejected collaborating with him, but merely wanted to take the initiative.
Previously, he certainly wouldn’t have agreed, but the shock of the past half hour was too great; out of 150 people from Heiyao Security Company, 15 were seriously injured, and 3 had died, which already exceeded a tenth of their forces.
What’s more terrifying was that despite such a huge sacrifice, they had only obtained 19 Military Merit Points.
His previous plan to use this extermination mission to promote himself to Honorary Lieutenant could now be declared a bust.
But now, as the saying goes, “every cloud has a silver lining.” As long as he cooperated with Chen Dalong, he could at least get a share of the long-term major order from Red Star Tech.
While everyone harbored their own schemes, the tallying of military merit points continued.
There weren’t many mutated beings in total — only 28, with the vast majority being mutated snakes and birds.
Owing to the small number, the tallying process was quick, and before long the military merit points were calculated. They had obtained a total of 83 points, adding to the previous 68 points, the current military merit points now amounted to 151.
When Chen Dalong heard the tally, his breathing became somewhat rushed.
What was more significant was that the Level 2 Mutated Spider hadn’t been tallied yet!
At this time, Professor Liu Zhi stood before the Mutated Spider, speaking to the staff of the Mutant Management Bureau, “This is a Second Stage Mutated Spider. You should also be aware of how terrifying Second Order Mutated Organisms are.”
“Moreover, I have found out that on its territory, Mad Dragon Security Company has obtained a large number of mutated beings as spoils of war, including the largest Mutated Greylag Goose.”
“Clearly, based on the danger level, it could at least rank within the top 50 of the danger list.”
“Normally, this Mutated Spider can be exchanged for 50 Military Merit Points. Now that the cleanup operation is being calculated at double the points, giving 100 points shouldn’t be excessive, right, Team Leader Hua Rui?”
Liu Zhi spoke at length, as he was securing benefits for Chen Dalong — the reason being, of course, he wanted the other party to work even harder to collect more mutated organism samples.
And as for whether the issuing of too many Military Merit Points would be a problem, that was a matter for the military, not his concern.
His words caused many in the crowd to hold their breaths.
The eyes of the three bosses—Wu Kun, Liu Guang, and Song Yuanlin—reddened even more, Qin Yaowen forcibly suppressed the turbulence in his heart, trying to keep his expression nonchalant.
As for Chen Dalong, he felt dry-mouthed and thirsty; at this moment, he found Liu Zhi exceptionally agreeable.
Then his eyes fixed unwaveringly on Hua Rui, the team leader of the Mutant Management Bureau.
“Not excessive at all, it’s justified,” Hua Rui replied directly.
Although he felt that this mutated being was only worth 80 Military Merit Points, it wasn’t his money to pay, so naturally, he wouldn’t dismiss Professor Liu Zhi’s face.
Standing aside, Zhang Ji opened his mouth, but ultimately considering Chen Dalong’s identity as a superhuman and the capabilities he had displayed, he decided not to voice any opposition.
After the military achievements were tallied, the total was 251 points. The forms were filled out and finally passed to Zhang Ji for his signature.
Having made up his mind, Zhang Ji no longer hesitated and swiftly signed his name, also not forgetting to encourage Chen Dalong, “You performed very well; I hope you can continue to excel.”
“Guaranteed to complete the mission!” Chen Dalong said loudly as if issuing a military decree.
This attitude pleased Zhang Ji greatly. He then briefly inquired about the areas Chen Dalong planned to clear next.
There was nothing to hide about these matters, and Chen Dalong told him directly.
Soon Zhang Ji left.
He had to adjust the combat plan, as Chen Dalong had become the biggest card in his hand.
One security company from his side could match two hundred-man battalions with even fewer casualties. In this situation, he would accommodate the other party as much as possible.
With the departure of Captain Zhang Ji, the atmosphere on the field suddenly became strange—especially for Wu Kun, Liu Guang, and Song Yuanlin, whose gazes towards Chen Dalong began to flicker subtly.
According to their past styles, the sudden emergence of a strong rival might have led the three companies to join forces and suppress it.
However, the current rival was too strong for even their combined forces to be certain of victory.
More importantly, from the start, Zhang Ji’s attitude towards Chen Dalong had been quite amicable, which left them somewhat confused.
This restrained them from daring to use their overt or covert tactics.
Given this situation, the only option they could think of was if you can’t beat them, join them—collaborate with Mad Dragon Security Company.
But they hadn’t yet made up their minds when Qin Yaowen, who was beside them, stepped forward without hesitation.
“Chen, you are truly formidable! Bringing back so many mutated beings in one go—I’m stunned,” Qin Yaowen said with a smile on his face.
“Brother, I really didn’t recognize a great man when I saw one. I don’t know if you could give me a hand, but regarding our previous collaboration, we can follow your lead in everything,” Qin Yaowen said with a smile.
His attitude was now many times more respectful than it had been initially.
Chen Dalong frowned slightly; having personally experienced the power of the envoys’ escort, he knew he didn’t need any collaborators.
Just as he was about to refuse, Lord Parrot’s voice suddenly came through the Bluetooth earpiece, “Agree to it.”
The two had been on the call all this time, so Ye Feng could hear what was being said on Chen’s end.
Ye Feng didn’t care whether the cake would be shared; money was of no importance to him, as he sought greater social influence.
Having another security company work for him was undoubtedly a better choice.
Hearing the Mutated Parrot say this, the words of refusal that Chen Dalong was about to utter were forcefully swallowed back. He immediately changed to, “Alright, no problem.”
Qin Yaowen was slightly taken aback; he had been ready to be severely exploited but had never expected the other party to agree so readily.
“Thank you, Chen. From now on, Heiyao Security Company will look to you for direction—just command me, and I’ll do whatever you need,” Qin Yaowen immediately stated after coming to this realization.
