As expected of a reformed warrior who has awakened his attributes, despite looking like an old man, he actually pried open a stone.

Under the stone lay half-buried wires in the soil... This dilapidated look is not uncommon in the wasteland.

Bentley grasped the two branches of the wire with both hands and closed his eyes.

Not long after, the hillside in front of me shook, and the earth and rocks slowly parted to both sides, revealing a tall stone gate.

There was a round hole the size of a bowl in the door. Bentley reached in and fiddled with it for a while, then pulled out his hand.

After a few seconds, the stone door slowly opened, revealing a hole that was more than three meters high and four meters wide.

The spaciousness of this secret camp far exceeded Qu Jianlei's imagination. The passage alone was more than twenty meters deep.

Hua Scorpion was on guard outside, and he and Bentley walked in, "Did you do this bit by bit yourself?"

"I'm not that idle," Bentley replied calmly, "I just grab some bastards to do the work."

What about after finishing the work? Qu Jianlei wanted to ask this question, but he still held back.

The old man can consider arresting "bastards" for work. As far as the wasteland is concerned, the moral standard has reached the standard.

The space inside is also very large, ten meters by ten meters square, and there are actually two small rooms dug out.

There are a lot of supplies piled up in the secret camp, including more than one vehicle and three motorcycles.

There are also a lot of guns and ammunition, as well as some energy blocks.

Qu Jianlei couldn't help but said dumbly, "Old Ben, do you still plan to use it as a refuge?"

"The lead pollution is too heavy, how can we stay there for a long time?" Bentley replied casually, "I was going to use this place as a cemetery."

Having said this, he sighed deeply, "I didn't expect that there would be a day when it would be used."

Chapter 108 The Invisible Rich (Fourth Update)

Bentley's wealth really surprised Qu Jianlei.

Although he has been complaining that he is too poor, he always thinks that it is because cultivation consumes too many resources.

If you put aside cultivation, he feels that he is not a rich man, at least he has a successful career.

He would have no problem buying a villa in any wealthy area of ​​any settlement, and even a manor would not be out of the question.

And when it comes to earning power, he believes that he will not lose to anyone, and he will definitely have no problem living a carefree life.

But he really didn't expect that a mediocre repairman outside the city could save so much money.

"At least twice as rich as me..." This still does not include the construction cost of this secret camp.

Bentley looked at him with a little suspicion, "Do you think my decades of accumulation will be worse than yours?"

"I still have to train my body according to the basic exercises. Otherwise, I would be much richer than I am now..."

"That's true," Qu Jianlei nodded in agreement, "Cultivation is really resource intensive."

Bentley hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to ask something, but finally said.

"Hurry and take a look to see what modifications are needed to this truck. Once it is packed up, it can be set off at night."

Qu Jianlei took a quick look at the situation of the heavy-duty truck and said, "No problem...just move the weapons."

He kept his light truck and transferred all supplies to the heavy truck.

Bentley was not stingy either, he piled a lot of ammunition and energy blocks on the car.

Qu Jianlei thought it was a bit too much, "You should save more just in case...what if I die accidentally?"

He can never let the other party provide more resources than himself. As the leader of the team, he cannot afford to lose that person.

"I saved these just for the purpose of using them," Bentley said quite openly.

But then, he hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Where did your cultivation method... come from?"

"If it's inconvenient, you don't have to say it."

Qu Jianlei smiled and didn't say a word - you know I'm inconvenienced, and you still ask like this?

Bentley really didn't care, but changed the question, "When you practice, what level of mutated beast meat do you want to eat?"

"C-level, B-level and A-level are all fine," Qu Jianlei felt, refusing to answer questions all the time and not being cooperative.

He even added, "There are also B-level mutant crystals."

"What?" Bentley was stunned when he heard this, and his reaction was even greater than when he heard the word "deserted settlement".

"You don't have awakened attributes, so you can practice with mutated crystals?"

Qu Jianlei replied sternly, "I don't know much about the cultivation system you mentioned..."

"But from my understanding, the mutated crystal itself is a kind of energy, so why can't it be used for cultivation?"

Bentley was even more shocked. He opened his mouth in astonishment, "You can't just... just use the mutation crystal to practice, right?"

"Of course, direct cultivation," Qu Jianlei looked at him curiously, "Is there any other way of cultivation?"

Bentley was completely speechless when he heard this. He took out a cigarette and lit it silently.

After finishing a cigarette, he spoke, "You can't even become a C-level ultimate warrior by directly using mutant crystals to practice."

Central City's research on mutation crystallization is very in-depth and can be applied to many places.

For example, genetically modified drugs and early genetically modified neutralizers.

Even those teenagers who received injections needed to increase their nutritional content, including mutated crystals.

That's why Bentley said that if his family didn't have any foundation, they really couldn't train reform warriors.

When it comes time to transform warriors, in order to enhance their physique, a greater amount of mutant crystals will be used.

However, even if they awaken their attributes and become the ultimate warrior, all they can use is crystal powder.

The powder will be mixed with other substances for consumption, injection or smearing.

This is why the price of mutant crystals has remained high.

However, what restricts the use of mutant crystal is not only its own quantity, but also the corresponding supporting substances.

The scarcity of many materials is greater than crystals, so in various settlements, there is a certain amount of mutant crystals.

What Bentley means is: Only B-level ultimate warriors can directly use mutant crystals to practice.

Moreover, B-level warriors cannot use A-level mutant crystals - there seems to be no problem with B-level warriors using B-level crystals.

For Qu Jianlei to be able to directly use B-level crystals... Bentley's shock is understandable.

After listening to his explanation, Qu Jianlei asked aloud, "How many B-level fighters are there in Central City?"

"This is a secret," Bentley spread his hands helplessly.

"If I even knew this, how could I be harmed and my family destroyed?"

"Is it okay to give a rough estimate?"

"Fifty to...seventy?" Bentley answered uncertainly, "For A-level warriors, there are at least three."

After thinking about it, Qu Jianlei said, "Do you want to directly use the B-level crystallization method?"

"Of course," Bentley replied without hesitation, "I am not yet ninety years old and can improve my strength."

The words "not yet" and "ninety years old" are used together...is there really nothing wrong with it? Qu Jianlei highly doubts it.???.

The average life expectancy of people in the wasteland...well, talking about this is nonsense and has no meaning at all.

But he knew that there were many wealthy people over ninety years old in the Hongsi settlement.

More than one scavenger has said that if you don't work as a scavenger, as long as you are rich enough, you can live to be a hundred years old without disaster or disease.

In other words, the life expectancy of Wastelanders is not an exaggeration if it reaches a hundred years.

It is ten to twenty years higher than the life expectancy of Blue Star people.

Qu Jianlei believes that being 100 years old is a goal that can be achieved, provided that you have enough money.

In other words, the physical condition of the Wastelanders may be better than that of the Blue Star people - at least their life expectancy is higher.

He never thought that this was a big deal. Racial differences existed objectively, let alone Wasteland and Blue Star.

But when he heard "less than ninety years old", he couldn't help but ask, "How long can a reformed warrior generally live?"

"If you die at the age of 120, it won't be a big problem," Bentley replied without hesitation.

"If you don't refine it well, your lifespan may be shortened, but if you don't die in battle... it's possible to be one hundred and thirty."

If you exercise so hard, won't your telomeres be affected? Qu Jianlei really wants to ask, that can shorten your lifespan.

But this word was too technical. He didn't know how to say it in Wasteland, and it was obviously not knowledge that survivors could master.

He nodded, "You are not young at this age...the key is that my training system may not be suitable for you."

Of course I know this. Bentley nodded without hesitation. I have never heard of your training system in Central City.

"Anyway, you can help as much as you can. I'm helping you and I'm not negotiating remuneration."
To be continued...
