Chapter 1552: Chapter 780: Return to Freedom City!

"Are you the person in charge of this base?" Lin Beichen then looked at the middle-aged man leading them and asked, "What is your name?"

Pedford quickly nodded and said, "Boss, my name is Pedford, you can just call me Ped in the future."

Since the other party had introduced themselves, Lin Beichen naturally didn’t want his people to go out and not know who their boss was when others asked.

Then Lin Beichen also introduced himself, "My name is Lin Beichen, you can just call me Brother Lin, I don’t like being called boss."

"Yes, Brother Lin." Pedford nodded in agreement obediently.

"You all just stay at this base for now." Lin Beichen thought about it and decided to let them stay in the original place. "Ped, you will remain their leader and take care of them for now."

The Wolf Fang Mercenary Corps’ current base was already overcrowded; if he brought over another hundred people, the base would be bursting at the seams, and there wouldn’t even be a place to sleep.

"Okay, Boss." Pedford was secretly delighted that they all got to stay; this wasn’t much different from their previous life.

Moreover, Lin Beichen even arranged for him to continue being the leader. Ped felt grateful they hadn’t fought; otherwise, the losses would’ve been severe.

"However, in a few days, we will move to the center of the Golden Triangle. You should prepare in advance here, and I’ll take you along when the time comes," Lin Beichen continued.

He still preferred having his people concentrated in one base, so he planned to build a larger base.

If they were going to move bases, they certainly needed to pick a better location, like a central area, rather than a remote spot like now.

"Okay, Brother Lin." Pedford nodded in agreement, although he didn’t know why Lin Beichen suddenly wanted to move, he thought it was wise not to question Lin Beichen’s orders and just agree.

Seeing Pedford nod in agreement, Lin Beichen waved and prepared to lead his people back home.

It was also about time to let the brothers have a good rest.

When Lin Beichen returned leisurely to the Wolf Fang Mercenary Corps base, the people guarding the base gate were shocked again, even more so than last time.

Because this time they returned even faster than before.

Could it be that the battle had been resolved so quickly?

However, when they saw that all the returning personnel were accounted for and their spirits hadn’t changed much, they roughly understood what had happened.

Maybe the fight didn’t happen, or there was some other reason.

So, Xu Qiang curiously asked, "Brother Lin, how come you’re back so fast?"

"Did you not go to attack the Ford Mercenary Corps’ base?"

As soon as Lin Beichen got out of the car, he was met with two questions from the former members of the Wolf Fang Mercenary Corps.

But given how quickly they returned, anyone would be curious, so Lin Beichen calmly explained, "Yes, there was no battle, because the other side surrendered directly."

"Oh, so there wasn’t a fight, then why not..."

"What!?"

"The other side surrendered directly?" Xu Qiang didn’t react at first.

After all, what Lin Beichen said was stunning; the other side actually surrendered.

Lin Beichen nodded and, accompanied by Xu Qiang, walked into the base and said, "They even joined us."

Xu Qiang’s eyes widened; not only did they surrender, but they also joined their Wolf Fang Mercenary Corps?

This is truly a shocking piece of news!

But judging from the proud and exuberant expressions on the returning men’s faces, it was definitely true!

The returned brothers eagerly told those who stayed at the base and didn’t go to battle about how Brother Lin, their leader, had dominantly taken over the Ford Mercenary Corps.

"Our Wolf Fang Mercenary Corps is so impressive now?"

"Has our reputation spread this far?"

Xu Qiang couldn’t help but have these thoughts.

But he quickly dismissed these ideas entirely.

He was very aware that it was not because of the Wolf Fang Mercenary Corps’ reputation, but due to Lin Beichen’s personal influence.

"Now our Wolf Fang Mercenary Corps has over four hundred people, which counts as a significant force."

Lin Beichen didn’t mind Xu Qiang’s surprised look and continued with his plan, "But with our current base, four hundred people can’t possibly fit."

Xu Qiang stroked his chin, nodding in agreement, "Brother Lin, you’re right."

"So, you didn’t bring them over, are we treating that place as a sub-base?"

Xu Qiang voiced his thoughts.

Operating multiple bases simultaneously wasn’t impossible, but Lin Beichen felt that with the current personnel size, it wasn’t necessary yet. It could be considered later when the numbers increased.

Then Lin Beichen shook his head at Xu Qiang and shared another thought, "I don’t want to set up a sub-base now. Old Xu, don’t you think our Wolf Fang Mercenary Corps is too remote and small here in the Golden Triangle?"

Hearing Lin Beichen’s words, Xu Qiang finally realized.

When they first came here, he didn’t notice much since this base was much better than the one he had back in Huaxia. But people always strive for higher goals.

Now, with Lin Beichen’s reminder, Xu Qiang noticed that with the increasing numbers, this base seemed not as great anymore.

The main issue was that this base was too remote, with no village or shop in sight. Every time they went out to recruit people or procure supplies, they had to run over a hundred kilometers to a small town.
