Two of the three teams had already returned. Everyone thought Lin Xinghai's team would arrive soon.
However, they waited for a full ten minutes without any sign of them, which left Elder Wei and the others puzzled.
In reality, the Three Major Mercenary Corps had deliberately taken a detour to shake off the Morgan Conglomerate's pursuit. Then they ran into a zombie horde, only just making it to the handover point at the last possible moment.
Because of these delays, it was only natural that they returned later than the other mercenary corps.
But Elder Wei and the others knew nothing of this. Thinking something terrible had happened, they were frantic with worry.
"Old Wei, can you stop pacing in front of me? You're making my head spin," Lin Zhengyang said irritably.
"I can't help being anxious! Lin Xinghai's is the only team we haven't heard from. Sigh... I should have given each battalion a set of long-range communication devices," Wei Tianxing sighed.
