Nan Yu shook his head: "What's there to joke about? I had information about all of you before I came here. I know more about Lu Ning than any of you do... Never mind, let's get to know each other better after the others come back, explain our abilities to each other, and it will be easier to cooperate in the future."

Hearing Nan Yu say this, the three of them became even more curious.

A short while later, Eileen and Song Sinian returned.

Eileen was empty-handed, while Song Sinian carried two large bundles of timber in his hands and another pile on his back.

After Eileen returned, she sat down next to Sherry and Afaf and whispered to each other.

Song Sinian tossed the timber onto the open ground in the center and smiled at Nan Yu, "Captain, how about it? Is this enough?"

Nan Yu nodded: "That's enough."

After a while, Dennis and Cheng Yue also returned.

Dennis was a Black man with brightly colored hair, sunglasses, a floral shirt, and baggy shorts.

He grinned and said, "Captain, we've checked the area within three kilometers, and there are no infected people or monsters there."

Cheng Yue, a middle-aged man standing next to me, seemed more composed. He added, "However, I saw an abandoned town five kilometers away. I'm not sure if there are any monsters there."

Hearing this, Nan Yu raised an eyebrow. He thought for a moment and said, "Five kilometers away, even if there are calamity beasts, they shouldn't come here. We just need to be careful."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yue nodded and said no more.

After a while, Lin Menglan returned: "Captain, the fortifications are finished."

Lu Ning had just noticed that Lin Menglan was a person with the ability to control earth.

From the moment we started, the soil on the wasteland began to rise, enveloping them and the off-road vehicle.

And judging from the appearance of the earthen wall, it should be quite sturdy.

Nan Yu nodded, then looked at Xu Hui and said, "Light a fire."

Xu Hui snapped his fingers, and a small flame appeared at the tip of his finger.

He flicked his finger, and a flame landed on one of the smaller piles of wood, igniting a fire.

Nan Yu made a gesture and said, "Alright, everyone, sit down. Let's eat something first and get to know each other's abilities. I'll explain the details of this mission."

Under the firelight, Nan Yu's expression was serious: "...After all, our mission this time is bound to be somewhat dangerous."
