Chapter 70 The Chosen Child—It Was Me (Chest Puffed Out)

She stood on the rooftop for a while, watching as large white characters gradually appeared on the crimson background of the giant screen. After watching for a while, Gu Li summarized it into two points.

First, five areas with level-two pollution and several areas with level-three pollution have appeared on the edge of Zone 1, which is very dangerous.

Secondly, there are not enough guards, so 1,000 people need to be randomly recruited to form a team to assist in clearing the battlefield (within one hour).

For the first time, Gu Li heard so many voices on the top floor, where cars always sped by and the only sounds were loudspeakers and giant advertising screens.

It's likely that every child selected will involuntarily curse the national treasure.

Amidst the birdsong and fragrant flowers, she turned and quickly left this place of trouble, which could be considered a good thing for her, since those people should no longer have time to bother with her.

Gu Li wandered aimlessly through the streets and alleys, finally stopping in front of a small storefront.

Through the glass, her sky-blue eyes saw the woman's anxious face and Wang Yu's pale face. When Gu Li pushed the door open, she received no response from anyone.

She didn't care.

Gu Li first found a seat and sat down, opened her suitcase, untied the large plastic bag of biscuits, and chewed on them.

The crispy texture, bursting with energy and a subtle grain aroma, spread through my mouth, and Gu Li decided to go to the hotel counter to buy more next time.

This is simply her chosen food.

Nutritional supplements are like drinking a very nutritious snot.

Gu Li silently tucked a set of nutrient solutions deeper into her bag. Hmm? It seems like she's bumped into something?

She patiently took out the items from the suitcase one by one, until she grasped the handle and slowly took the cross, which was as tall as a person, out of the small suitcase. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

The weapon Levi gave her is useful, but it's too conspicuous to be seen in public, so she hasn't taken it out yet.

Gu Li gently pulled out a short sword from her short finger, carefully maintained it with fine cotton cloth and oil, and then switched to a long sword to wipe it clean little by little.

Finally, she was satisfied and carefully put everything back on the floor, one by one, in order.

Wang Yu, who was immersed in grief behind the counter, couldn't bear the rustling coming from the corner any longer and looked over.

Wang Yu looked at the mysterious girl he had met once before. She was holding a piece of nutrient waste that only the poorest people would eat. She calmly took out the contents of her suitcase one by one, and even pulled out a huge cross from it!

His sadness and fear at being chosen gradually turned into a sense of powerlessness that he could not express, as he watched the girl calmly maintain her swords and organize her box.

Finally, I couldn't help but ask, "What exactly are you here for?"

Gu Li stood up, carrying her suitcase. She was quite satisfied with her reorganized luggage, so that she could easily reach in and take out a piece of bread by simply opening a small opening.

Upon hearing this, she looked over, her sky-blue eyes still holding a hint of a smile: "I need your help with something, but you don't need to worry about me now. We can talk about it after I'm done."

Looking at Gu Li's sincere face, Wang Yu wondered: Did she really think she was very considerate?

After this incident, Wang Yu felt much better. He sighed and looked at the woman: "Sister, don't be sad. Being chosen is fate. Maybe I'll be lucky enough to come back."

The woman in the red fur coat was named Wang Tian. At this moment, all the shrewdness and shrewdness on her face turned into sadness and despair. After hearing her brother's words, she let out a suppressed sob.

She said bitterly, "It's not a random thousand people, it's always us lowly people every year! And look how many of us actually come back unscathed! We're all cannon fodder! We're just thrown out by those people to be used as scapegoats!"

Wang Tian's pale face flushed with energy, which actually made her look more like she was wearing clothes.

She pursed her lips as if she had made up her mind, and gripped Wang Yu's shoulders: "You're just an ordinary person... Sister, at least sister has... I'll go in your place!"

Wang Yu's face looked as if she had been punched, both embarrassed and astonished.

Wang Tian wiped her eyes, not wanting to argue with him anymore. She looked at the girl sitting in the corner and forced a smile.

"I really owe you a lot yesterday, and I haven't had a chance to properly thank you yet. Is there anything I can help you with today?"

Gu Li's thoughtful gaze fell on her face, and he stepped forward to ask, "Where can I buy materials to repair the building?"

She added, "I need a lot."

Wang Tian listened to her request without changing her expression, nodded, and her eyes regained their usual shrewdness and calmness: "If you want to build a villa or a building, I have a way to transport the materials from Zone 2 for you."

Gu Li frowned and asked tentatively, "What if it's a very large quantity? Enough to repair several streets?"

Wang Tian fell silent, her gaze sweeping over Gu Li as she suppressed the urge to ask if Gu Li was just teasing her.

She thought about it for a while, tapped on the communicator, and placed it in front of Gu Li.

The above is a string of numbers and an address.

"For such a big deal, you'll probably have to go to District Two to talk to him in person. Jason is still a shrewd businessman with a conscience."

Seeing Gu Li's puzzled expression, she chuckled and explained, "Among the eleven districts of the Exile, our Lower Sixth District has very few resources. Everything is transported from the Upper Sixth District or even the Safe Zone. The further down you go, the more expensive it becomes."

“There are no kind-hearted merchants in the Lower Six Districts, only a small group of them who are not so black-hearted, and Jason, whom I happen to know, happens to be one of them.”

Gu Li nodded, wrote down the contact information, thanked him, and turned to leave.

Although Gu Li didn't seem like a pampered young lady from a poor family, Wang Tian, ​​on a whim, still asked, "You have enough money on you, right?"

Gu Li: ?

Wang Tian explained helplessly, "From the lower areas upwards, ordinary people not only need to show their identity, but also need to have enough funds to prove their eligibility, at least one million points."

Gu Li looked at the woman with longing eyes as she saw the balance on her communicator, which had been reduced to only 800,000 points.

Before she could speak, the woman said helplessly, "It's our rule here not to lend money to guests, but of course, we can make an exception for our savior."

"I can only lend you 100,000 points; I need the rest to buy some self-defense items."

Wang Yu immediately turned to look at her: "Sister! I said I'd go by myself!"

At this moment.

Several people suddenly burst into the room, carrying communicators and
