The Cannon Fodder in the Global Apocalypse Game lives a leisurely life-Chapter 430: Reversing Tides

"Ah! I’m sorry Kids! I didn’t knew you’d come back!" The monk apologized sincerely.

Nanjing wiped his face and stunned by the scene in front of him.

"T-that...Gramps, what are they doing?" He saw a hole and a mountain of soil piled next to it being thrown outside.

"Digging to escape." The monk replied.

"E-escape?" Nanjing’s eyes lit up. "Can we go with you?"

"You can however you need to contribute." Jun Chang handed Nanjing and the others shovel each.

"No problem!"

They were overjoyed but their stomach couldn’t keep up with their excitement.

Growl—

Thud—

"What happened to them?"

"They must be hungry." Jun Chang wiped the sweat gathered on his forehead.

Junjie saw an opportunity and quickly advertised.

Although Nanjing and the others are in dire straits, they still kept their principles and only looked at the water bottles, bread, and biscuits on the Gramp’s arms before swallowing the lump in their throats.

"We don’t have copper coins anymore. Last night, Private Kai and his lackeys extorted them from us." Nanjing and the others made sad faces.

Jun Chang and the monk also nodded, confirming Private Kai’s heinous deeds.

Junjie’s face changed. No wonder, Private Kai suddenly had a lot of copper coins last night!

Driven by guilt, Junjie quickly offered the goods for free. Anyway, he also profited enough.

"Really Gramps? We don’t have to pay anymore?" Nanjing was in disbelief.

Junjie nodded.

After getting confirmation, Nanjing didn’t stand on ceremony, thanked Junjie, and distributed the food and water equally before scarfing them.

"Thank you so much, Gramps! We’ll find a way to repay you!"

[Stamina...]

Junjie also gave his Brother and the monk a share.

"Thank you Kid!"

"How about you friends?" Jun Chang eyed Haoran.

"Brother, they’re richer than me. You don’t have to worry about them." Junjie smiled.

Jun Chang did not mind anymore and ate to his hearts contents. In the midst, tears formed in his eyes.

"Once we go the territory, there’s a canteen where we buy warm meal. I’ll treat you there brother."

"What territory and canteen?" The monk overheard their conversation.

"One of the two Grandpas that came with me is a Landowner. His territory is rich and is in need of manpower."

The monk didn’t seem to be a bad person considering that his Brother had gotten help from him.

Come to think of it, there is a mission about recruiting residents and it pays handsomely.

Three minutes later, Chuhua was finally able to dig her way out. "I’m done! Jump in!"

Haoran was the first one to do so, followed by the Jun Brothers, and the monk.

Those who were left didn’t escape yet but asked, "Wait, Gramps, can we call over the other captives from the other quarries and the farm?"

Chunhua was surprised. Didn’t expect someone would actually want to leave behind to rescue others. "No problem for me! The tunnel is big enough for five people at a time!"

"Thank you Gramps! You can go ahead! We’ll follow you in a while!" Nanjing quickly ran towards his friends.

Chunhua then connected the tunnel to the farm and the logging areas where the rest of the captives was kept.

Haoran with the help Nanjing’s group knocked the guards.

The disappearance of the captives remained unnoticed since General Kang’s subordinates were busy with the Nightmare Flower.

This made the rescue operation go smoothly.

"We’re outside! I missed the fresh air and nature!"

"I’ve been wanting to leave that suffocating place for a long time! We’re finally free!"

"Serves them right! That monster must have been by the heavens to punish them!"

Exclamations expressing the joy for escaping slavery filled the forest.

"I’m sorry and thank you for not leaving us behind!" The group who had treated Jun Chang and the monk horribly we’re pricked by conscience and went to apologize sincerely.

"Kids, you should not thank us. Those two are the ones who did most of the work. I barely help with anything." The monk pointed towards Chunhua and Haoran.

Due to their joy, they have forgotten to thank their benefactors. Everyone present gave the two a big bow of gratitude.

"Grandpas, thank you so much!"

"We will never forget this debt of gratitude!"

"If we meet again, we will repay you!"

Because the players were afraid of getting captured again, they bid Chunhua’s group farewell before leaving in different directions, planning to reunite with their missing relatives who had been used as spies.

Only Nanjing’s group stayed for a little longer, their eyes were gazing at General Kang’s territory.

Chunhua remembered this team who had helped A’ran. She had a good impression of them. "If you don’t have a territory to stay, you can come to mine."

"Right! Don’t pass this opportunity—" Junjie persuaded them too.

"I’m sorry, Grandpa. I have to decline. I still need to find my sister and the others but I’m serious about repaying the favor. Grandpas, can I add you as friends?"

Junjie felt pity. If only these people knew that it is ’Baozi’ and the ’Anonymous no. 2’ who’s offering them to join! Gosh, he really wanted to say it but it would appear as he was rude.

Chunhua was a little bit disappointed but didn’t force them. "Alright, what’s your trade name?"

Nanjing replied, "It’s Reversing Tides."

"Ah?" That IGN is familiar!

She remembers it now!

Reversing Tides! It’s that famous Tank who almost won against Scarlet Tempest once because of his unique playing style or carrying a small shield that can be turn into a weapon and his rare anti-injury skills.

He also had a sister who was a great summoner!

(A/N: Anti-Injury skill- Deflecting Damage Received)

Her desire to recruit him intensified.

"If you still don’t have a territory after finding your sister, you can come to my territory. You just need to find the stairs that leads to the Main Mountain Peak."

Agree! Agree! Junjie sent eye signals. But Nanjing remained firm in his decision.

"I’m happy for the offer but I already have a trauma with joining territories, Grandpa. It will take a while to heal."

He didn’t want to experience it again.

Chunhua was downcast but she cannot force people. "Then, have a safe journey!"

Ding—

Nanjing received the friend request.

[Baozi is asking for a friend request. Would you like to accept?]

B-Baozi?!

Nanjing: Σ(°ロ°) !!!
