Zhao Yu discovered that today’s daily mission refresh point was actually the location of the mother and daughter’s shelter that they passed by before.
"Didn't they go find Meng Xian?!"
After all, this is their own business, and it doesn’t matter whether they look for it or not. What makes Zhao Yu hesitate is whether he should do this task.
Starting from the base, it will take more than six hours to go there if you go quickly. It takes half a day to go back and forth.
"If you don't do the task, you have to wait until the day after tomorrow..."
After thinking about it for a moment, Zhao Yu decided to do this task. After all, not only the training camp requires technology points to be exchanged, but the subsequent arsenal, tank factory and more buildings also need technology points to unlock.
I checked the ammunition and found there were seven bullets left, which should be enough.
Zhao Yu took out the contents of his backpack, took only enough water and dry food for one day, and set off again.
As soon as he walked out of the factory gate, a alien species spotted him in the distance and came straight towards him.
Zhao Yu first raised his pistol and took aim, then put it down again, turned around and ran away.
Bullets are limited, so Zhao Yu decided not to waste bullets on this alien species.
Six hours later.
Zhao Yu returned to the shelter he passed before.
Looking from afar, I found the alien species guarding the door.
As for the alien creature he killed a few days ago, there is no body left, and it must have been eaten by wild beasts.
After observing for a while and finding no other dangers, Zhao Yu moved closer.
"Ho~!"
The alien species heard the sound and moved towards Zhao Yu.
It wasn't until the distance between the two sides was close to three or four meters that Zhao Yu pulled the trigger.
"Bang~!" With a sound, the alien species fell to the ground.
[Complete the daily mission and receive a reward of 30 technology points.]
Zhao Yu walked around the corpse, came to the manhole cover of the shelter, knocked on it lightly, and asked: "Is there anyone inside?!"
After a long time, a weak voice came from under the manhole cover.
"Is it the uncle from before?!"
Zhao Yu was startled for a moment, and the voice should be that of the little girl. He nodded and said, "It's me. I saw a alien guarding here, and I have already dealt with it..."
"Kacha~!"
The manhole cover opened and the little girl climbed out.
"Where's your mother?!"
When Zhao Yu saw that she was the only one coming out, he couldn't help but asked curiously.
"My mother is in Mengjiazhuang..."
The little girl hesitated and asked: "Uncle, do you have anything to eat?!"
"Yes!"
Zhao Yu took out the things and handed them to her.
The little girl suddenly devoured her food and looked very hungry.
"Your mother is in Mengjiazhuang, why are you here?!"
After she was half full, Zhao Yu asked again.
"I ran away secretly..."
The little girl looked down and said: "I want to come back and wait for my father..."
How willful!
Zhao Yu shook his head. Seeing that she was so young, he didn't say much and turned to ask about the situation at Mengjiazhuang.
"More than a hundred people have gathered there. Under the management of Master Meng, the order is in order..."
"More than a hundred people?!" Zhao Yu was shocked. When he left, there were only a dozen or so people. How could so many people gather in such a short time?!
"It seems that many people have come from the former Mengjiazhuang, and some are heard to be nearby survivors who were rescued..."
The little girl said, suddenly raised her head and said: "Uncle, can you take me to the previous gathering place?"
"Huh?!"
"Before he disappeared, my father said he was going to a gathering place to change things, but he never came back. I want to go there and have a look..."
Zhao Yu was about to refuse, when suddenly another notification sounded in his mind.
[Unexpected mission: Escort Nan Nan to the gathering place, mission reward: 30 technology points.]
There is still a mission?!
Zhao Yu was surprised and then overjoyed. He didn't expect that chatting with other people would lead to an unexpected mission.
Seeing that Zhao Yu was silent, Nan Nan seemed to be hesitating. After a moment, she said: "I have nothing else to pay for, only myself. If you can escort me there, I will give you my first time."
You..."
"Huh?!"
Zhao Yu was stunned and looked at her in astonishment, not expecting that she would say such a thing.
He quickly shook his head and said: "You little brat understands what nonsense you are talking about..."
"I'm not a kid, I'm 15 this year..." Nan Nan interrupted Zhao Yu and puffed out her chest.
Zhao Yu was speechless and shook his head: "Do you think I'm a beast?!"
He continued: "For the sake of your filial piety, I will escort you there without any reward!"
"Thank you, uncle!"
Seeing the joy on her face, Zhao Yu couldn't help but shake his head, "In the future, you won't dare to trust others casually..."
Really, that is, if I met him, if it were someone else...
After a short rest, the two of them hit the road.
About half an hour after they left, a group of people arrived in a hurry.
"Nannan!"
"Nannan!"
A lady in her thirties shouted anxiously as soon as she arrived at the shelter.
"Wait, I'll accompany you down!"
Just when the lady wanted to go down, a woman accompanying her stopped her and got into the shelter first.
When other people saw this, they stood on the ground and were on guard.
"The alien here seems to have been killed today..."
"He must have been killed today, otherwise the body that stayed overnight wouldn't be so intact..."
Several people outside the door squatted next to the corpse of the alien and looked at it.
After a few more minutes, the two people from underground came out.
"How is it?!"
"No!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the lady knelt down on the ground and began to cry loudly.
Everyone looked at each other in shock. The woman in the lead, named Li Na, quickly went up to comfort her.
"Don't worry, Nan Nan may still be alive..."
"According to the traces of the shelter, she was indeed here before..."
"She must have left not long ago!"
"In addition, outside this shelter, there is a corpse of a foreign species. The time of death is today..."
"This shows that after Nan Nan came to the shelter, she was trapped by the alien species. One or a group of people passing by killed the alien species and rescued her..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The lady suddenly said: "It's not a rescue, it's a kidnapping!"
"My Nan Nan comes here because she definitely wants to wait for her father to come back. She can't leave easily..."
"The group must have tricked her into letting her open the door, and then took her away!"
When the others heard this, they thought it made sense. This girl was so obsessed with waiting for her father that she dared to sneak into the shelter alone. There was no reason to leave with a stranger.
Li Na was the first to follow Meng Xian to Mengjiazhuang. She was a first-level enhancer. After thinking for a moment, she quickly said: "Check around to see if there are any traces..."
After a while, someone found traces in the woods, "There are footprints here, they look like new ones..."
"Hurry up and catch up!"
Soon, the group set off again, chasing Zhao Yu in the direction he left.
……
"I promised in advance that the gathering place has been occupied by mutant beasts. When we get there, the most we can do is watch from a distance..."
While walking on the road, Zhao Yu told Nan Nan the rules in advance. He was only responsible for taking her there for a look and then leaving without staying any longer.
"I understand, just one look will make me give up..." Nannan seemed to understand that her father might be dead, but she just couldn't accept it.
Zhao Yu shook his head and continued on his way with her.
After walking for about an hour, we finally stopped outside a factory.
This is a gathering place transformed from a power plant. Photovoltaic power generation is one of the few places with electricity in the last days.
Relying on this flashlight, the factory director gathered many people, and gradually formed a gathering place, attracting other survivors to come and trade.
Unfortunately, last month, it was occupied by a mutant beast, and this gathering place was abandoned.
Arriving at the outskirts of the power plant, Zhao Yu frowned slightly and looked from a distance several times, but found no mutant beast.
"No?!"
He was a little confused. When he came here a month ago, he did see mutant beasts from a distance. Moreover, with the size of mutant beasts, it was difficult to hide them.
"Or maybe it was just passing by, rested here and then left?!"
However, he did not dare to act rashly. Although the mutant beast did not see it, there was a vague figure passing by inside the power plant.
Could it be that the people at the gathering place have returned?!
The distance was too far, and Zhao Yu couldn't clearly see the situation of those figures. He hesitated and said, "Wait for me here, I'll take a closer look!"
After saying that, he took steps towards the power plant gate.
Taking a closer look, the figures inside the power plant are not living people, they are all alienated alien species.
"Dad~!"
At this moment, Nan Nan's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Zhao Yu turned his head, and a figure next to him rushed towards the inside of the power plant.
Damn it!
Zhao Yu was startled, quickly rushed out, and grabbed Nan Nan.
"You see clearly, those things inside are not living people, they are all alien species..."
"Let me go, my dad is right there..."
Nannan's face was covered with tears, and she was in great pain when she looked at the monster-like figure in the power plant.
She didn't expect that when she met her father again, she would be in such a situation.
At the same time, outside the jungle, a group of people arrived following the footprints.
As soon as he looked towards the power plant, he found that Zhao Yu was controlling Nan Nan, while the girl in his arms was struggling desperately.
"Nan Nan, she is my Nan Nan, please save her!
"The noble lady recognized it at a glance and quickly asked the leader for help.
"Beast!"
When Li Na saw this, her eyes were splitting, and she raised her hand and fired.
Far away.
Zhao Yu, who was pulling Nan Nan, felt a sharp edge behind him, so he subconsciously hid to the side.
"Bang~"
A black light flashed before my eyes, and the next second, gunshots were heard.
Zhao Yu was shocked. He didn't expect someone to fire a black gun.
Turning around, I found Nannan's mother and a group of people, each holding a gun, rushing towards this side with eager eyes.
Damn it, was misunderstood?!
Zhao Yu quickly realized that his actions of holding Nan Nan back to prevent her from entering caused the people behind them to mistakenly think that he was going to do something to Nan Nan.
Seeing this situation, he made a quick decision, turned around quickly, held Nan Nan in front of him, and at the same time raised his pistol and put it against her head.
"Don't move!"
Suddenly, the rushing crowd slowed down.
"Let her go!"
"Stop!"
People's faces were full of anger, and a gun was pointed at Zhao Yu. If he didn't have a hostage in his hand, he would have fired.
Li Na was judging whether she could kill Zhao Yu instantly if she fired.
Seeing this, Zhao Yu leaned down, hid behind Nan Nan, and said loudly: "Don't mess around, or I'll shoot!"
"Don't shoot!"
The lady was shocked and rushed forward to block the other people's guns.
Li Na saw this and slowly deflected the gun. She remembered that Zhao Yu had dodged the gun at first.
It is impossible for normal people to dodge bullets. The only explanation is that Zhao Yu is an enhancer of the perception system.
"Zhao Yu, our village owner is kind enough to let you live, but you still dare to do evil?!"
She was furious and shouted angrily.
Zhao Yu's ears twitched. The shot he just fired successfully disturbed the alien species in the power plant. He could hear at least thirty alien species rushing towards him.
Seeing this, Zhao Yu quickly changed direction, took Nan Nan as a hostage, and retreated to the other side.
Naturally, the others refused to let him go and clung to him more than 20 meters away.
"Head, there is a different species~!"
As the positions of both parties changed, people who followed them finally discovered the situation inside the power plant.
Seeing the densely packed alien species, everyone's scalp went numb.
"Zhao Yu, let him go, I'll spare your life~!"
Li Na was startled and shouted loudly.
Zhao Yu did not respond, and continued to look for a location. Soon, he retreated to a road outside the wall, the road around the factory. There was a wall pier about half a meter high on the roadside, which was perfect for dodging bullets.
When he arrived here, Zhao Yu turned his head and glanced at the factory. The aliens inside were almost reaching the door.
"Shoot!"
Following the other party's order, everyone picked up their firearms and started firing bullets at the alien species in the factory.
Seeing this opportunity, Zhao Yu made a quick decision, quickly abandoned Nan Nan, turned around and got into the road around the factory, leaned against the wall and ran away quickly.
"Bang~"
"Bang~!"
Two bullets grazed against the wall.
After Li Na fired two shots, seeing that Zhao Yu had not been hit, she didn't care about anything else and ran out.
He quickly came to Nan Nan, picked her up and retreated.
"Plop~!"
"Plop~!"
At the gate, corpses of different species fell to the ground one after another, including Nannan's father.
"Dad..." Nannan burst into tears, but she didn't struggle to get over.
"Retreat!"
Li Na glanced back and saw that the alien species in the power plant were still coming in a steady stream. With their small manpower, they couldn't stop them.
Suddenly, the group of people split into two groups, one group of people fled with all their strength, and the other group of three people stayed behind.
The chase lasted for about an hour before the tail was finally shaken off.
The group of people fled back to the shelter area and then stopped to rest.
"Nan Nan, are you okay?" It was only then that the lady rushed to Nan Nan and carefully checked whether she was injured.
When Li Na saw this, she couldn't help but said angrily: "It's a pity that that beast Zhao Yu escaped..."
"Mom, my father is dead..."
"I saw it, he has turned into a monster..." The lady sighed, and naturally saw the familiar figure falling at the door of the power plant.
"Mom, I don't have a father anymore..." The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly.
After a while, the two of them calmed down a little, and Li Na began to ask about Nan Nan's experience.
"What?!"
"You begged her to take you there?!"
When everyone heard Nan Nan say that she was the one who begged Zhao Yu to take her to find her father, they were all dumbfounded.
"Impossible!"
Li Na quickly objected: "I clearly saw her holding you and you struggling in her arms..."
Nannan said apologetically: "I saw my father at that time, and my mind was so excited that I wanted to rush in, but he stopped me..."
"This..."
Everyone looked at each other, and some couldn't believe their ears.
But the victims all clarified it, which shows that they really misunderstood Zhao Yu.
"That's not right. Since Zhao Yu didn't do anything to you, why did he hold you hostage in the end?!"
Li Na was still a little confused and asked blankly.
……
"Damn it, I'm really sick. I didn't even bother to ask for details. I just started shooting when I met..."
On the other side, Zhao Yu was walking in the woods, cursing.
Today, if it weren't for his talent that he had never shown before, he might have been shot in the head.
After seeing Nannan's mother and the people in Mengjiazhuang, Zhao Yu understood that he couldn't explain it in a short time.
Thinking of their first impression of him, Zhao Yu directly chose to hold Nan Nan hostage to protect himself.
After all, the other party fired the first shot directly. If he foolishly surrendered and captured him, wouldn't he be leaving his life and death in the hands of others?
Therefore, he made a decisive decision at that time and took Nannan as a hostage.
As for the misunderstanding, there is no point in misunderstanding. If he was accidentally killed, then everything would be in vain. Even if Li Na finally knelt in front of his grave to apologize, it would be useless, everyone would die!
After scolding for a while, Zhao Yu finally felt relieved. He glanced at the balance of technology points and smiled on his face.
[Technology Point: 139]
The big ones are the daily tasks and the sudden tasks, which provide a total of 60 technology points.
"That's enough, we can finally create a training camp next!"
It took nearly four hours before Zhao Yu finally rushed back to the base.
The training camp was set up nearby the energy station.
【Do you want to spend 100 technology points to redeem training camp?!】
"Yes!"
Brush!
[Technology Points: 43]
A new building suddenly appeared in front of us.
This training camp is six meters high and covers an astonishing area, larger than the base and energy station combined.
Zhao Yu, however, ignored these details and hurried in to check out the details of the training camp.
[Basic skills: Introduction to firearms, introduction to fighting, and introduction to grappling.]
[Required for exchange: 1 technology point, 66 kilograms of flesh and blood, 1 kilogram of cloth, 10 grams of gold, 100 grams of silver, 500 grams of copper.]
[Note: The conscripts' bodies are humanoid biological clones, and their brains are controlled by AI chips. They will act according to inherent instructions in areas without signals.]
[Note: The current radiation signal range of the base is: 1 km. Within this range, the commander can remotely issue instructions within the base. If you want to expand the signal range, you can build a radar or signal vehicle.]
[Note: When the number of conscripts built reaches 10, the exchange option for land infantry can be opened.]
