Chapter 161 Coveted



But it was an abnormal acquaintance in the apocalypse, especially after Wen Yubai was named by Colonel Fu to participate in a special mission to hunt mutant animals, she often cooperated with Captain Pei to kill the enemy.

A life-and-death battle is the most challenging test of human nature. After working together for such a long time under such circumstances, Wen Yubai almost forgot that she and Captain Pei had only known each other for a month.

Now she feels that Captain Pei is the comrade-in-arms she can trust and have his back.

For people living in the last days, having a comrade-in-arms whom they can trust and rely on is extremely rare and precious. Wen Yubai did not have such a companion in his previous life.

So when Captain Pei hinted that she should go together, she hesitated for only a second before following him.

Of course, she was so decisive not only because she trusted Captain Pei, but also because she was confident in her ability to protect herself. In many cases, her ability was her confidence.

God knows when Captain Pei signaled Wen Yubai, her heart was "scratching and fussing". Because she used her mental power to "detect" that the several warehouses at the other end of the military supply center stored the material she wanted most - fuel.

With the system's capabilities, it is not a problem to collect the fuel without anyone noticing, the problem is that these supplies have an owner.

Captain Pei and his men came here to collect supplies, but they had a quota, and they couldn't take as much as they wanted. Wen Yubai dared to take the fuel without permission, and he would probably be found out by his superiors.

Although it was an open secret among the higher-ups that she had a space magic weapon on her, taking it without permission was undoubtedly theft. Even though she had been living in the apocalypse for three years, she still hadn't let go of this moral bottom line.

Wen Yubai had experienced the misery of hunger due to food shortage in her previous life, but in this life she has never lacked food. She can even enjoy the best food with her own ability, so her obsession with food has been greatly reduced.

However, she wants to form her own mercenary group, go out on missions herself, and kill as many zombies as possible. In this series of plans, fuel will become the most important yet most difficult material.

But even in the end times, fuel is a commodity controlled by the state, and it is difficult for individuals to get more.

Wen Yubai's RV and fuel were provided by Captain Pei and his men. The fuel used in gas stations along the way from City A to Base No. 5 was pumped by military tanker trucks, and private individuals could not get this fuel at all.

Although Captain Pei was very generous to her, he couldn't give her as much as she wanted. Although the survivors in front would leave some stocks for the team behind, after all, they belonged to the survivors behind, and there was not much fuel in the gas station, so the team only had enough.

Wen Yubai only complained to Captain Pei once the day before yesterday, and Captain Pei frowned and didn't say anything. He didn't feel disappointed when he didn't answer Wen Yubai, because Captain Pei was not a domineering president, and she was not his little wife.

But she didn't expect that two days later, he would take her to a warehouse where barrels of fuel were stored, and then he would walk to another warehouse by himself, as if he didn't see the situation here.

Wen Yubai looked at the man's tall and straight back, feeling moved.

Although he didn't say a word, given his status, he would definitely settle the issue of the "missing" fuel no matter how much Wen Yubai took here, and wouldn't let anyone else trace it back to her.

After the danger is eliminated, people will have other thoughts. Especially for Captain Pei and Wen Yubai, who have a special relationship in the eyes of others, who act alone like this, who wouldn't pay more attention and guess what they did in their minds.

So when the two of them came out side by side more than ten minutes later, everyone else was winking at each other, but no one dared to make fun of them out loud.

The twenty or so soldiers with special abilities that Captain Pei brought with him were all brought by him from City B, so naturally they would joke around with each other from time to time.

Unfortunately, their commander had a serious face today and there was nothing unusual about his appearance, so the soldiers had no chance to tease him.

As for Miss Wen, to be honest, although she looks very young and is generally recognized as being very generous and efficient in doing things, no one dares to joke with her.

Therefore, everyone's curiosity was almost reaching the sky, but they could only hold it in and not dare to ask.

Little did people know that if Wen Yubai had not won an Oscar for his acting skills, he would have been exposed in front of everyone.

Because just now, under the cover of Captain Pei, Wen Yubai secretly collected a lot of things. It can be said that he made a lot of money, and the fifty-square-meter space was filled to the brim.

What made her particularly happy was that she had collected a lot of gasoline. At least in the next six months, when she led the team out to perform tasks, she would not have to worry about the vehicle running out of fuel.

In fact, she could have collected more fuel, but Captain Pei had already done this, and she felt that she should quit while she was ahead and not make things too difficult for him.

Because other materials may not be calculated so clearly, but fuel is too precious, and the superiors will definitely pay close attention to the fuel reserves. It would be okay if she took a little, but if she took too much, he would definitely have a hard time explaining it.

Later, when Captain Pei saw the almost endless supply of fuel barrels in the warehouse, he couldn't help but whispered, "Didn't you say you needed a lot?"

"It's enough for three or four months. If it's not enough, we'll think of a solution then. I don't want to make things difficult for you." Wen Yubai said.

Wen Yubai was telling the truth. In his previous life, in the fourth month of the apocalypse, a vehicle powered by crystal cores had been successfully researched.

In her previous life, she had no connection with the military and could not get this kind of transportation before it became popular. But this time, she believed that she could easily get it, so she only took about half a year's worth of fuel.

As for other supplies, they were not very important and the quantity was not so tight, so Wen Yubai tried his best to collect as much as he could, especially salt, which became a scarce commodity after the second year of the apocalypse.

Captain Pei's space ring is also used to collect fuel. This thing is too heavy and too dangerous to transport in a car, so they only use one car to transport the fuel tanks.

After everyone returned with a full load, when they passed by a jewelry store, Captain Pei ordered the soldiers to go in and look for any jewelry or collectibles.

It was obvious that this kind of order was already normal, because these special-powered soldiers did not show any signs of surprise or anything like that. They quickly took the things back and put them all in a wooden box.

Wen Yubai couldn't tell whether these people knew about the space magic weapon.

However, Wen Yubai was really surprised because the soldiers did not bring back much jewelry, but when she saw a statue of a god, she was really surprised.

Because at that time the system said in her ear: "Host, this is a top-grade magic weapon. The space inside is more than 500 cubic meters. If it is converted into points, it is worth at least more than 300,000." The system couldn't help but salivate.
