Chapter 64 The Food Problem that Troubled Li Shouyun
In the ordinary rooms, there were no piles of supplies, nor any signs of long-term human life. The balcony and every corner of the room were full of dust.
A young man in his early twenties was sitting on the sofa with several bread bags scattered at his feet and bloody footprints extending all the way from the door.
Obviously, this is just his temporary stay.
Being able to act alone in the last days often symbolizes extraordinary confidence in one's own strength.
But now, this confident and powerful man is frowning.
A map appeared in front of him that only he could see.
This was a legendary quest that was triggered after he cleared the dungeon yesterday and obtained a pair of leggings called "Ice Jade".
The mission rewards are very tempting.
Not to mention that collecting a set can upgrade a sub-legend to a legend, the reward of increasing one level for each piece collected is enough to tempt people.
After reaching the same level as the zombies, or even surpassing them by a few levels, it becomes particularly difficult to level up.
Previously, it took less than a day to level up.
Now it takes three or four days, or even longer, to upgrade.
Gathering the complete set of equipment directly upgrades to ten levels, which is enough to save more than a month of upgrade time. Coupled with the strength of the equipment, it directly leaves others far behind.
This was supposed to be a joyful mission.
But before he could be happy for long, a piece of information coming from another city made him unable to laugh anymore.
A city a few hundred kilometers from here.
There was a madman with a long frost knife who hacked at hundreds of people. Even the united first-line teams were unable to defeat the enemy and suffered a collective disaster.
The source of the information is a survivor who escaped from that city, and based on analysis, the authenticity of the intelligence is quite high.
However, these people knew nothing about the madman's level, the specific level of his equipment, what skills he possessed, or what his fighting habits were.
The information is quite limited.
They only knew that the madman was wearing a devil mask, holding a long sword that emitted cold air in his hand, and had three other pieces of equipment that emitted cold air on his body, as if they were part of the same set as the long sword.
Others didn't know what it was, but Wu Qi reacted immediately.
The chilly suit, isn't this the ice jade he just obtained!
After Wu Qi found out which city these people came from, he checked the coordinates of other pieces on the map.
Sure enough, that city is exactly the city where the four scattered parts are gathered together in the map coordinates!
There is no doubt that the madman is the owner of the four ice jades.
The worse news is that his coordinates are closest to the madman. If the madman wants to collect the next piece of parts, he will be the first target.
Do you want to keep the Ice Jade Leggings?
There is no need to explain how powerful the Ice Jade Leggings are. They are far stronger than his original level 25 dark gold leggings. As a lone wolf, ensuring that he is stronger than others is the most important thing.
But if he kept the Ice Jade Leggings, he had no confidence that he could survive the hands of that madman.
Although the two have not actually fought each other, if the perspective is changed and he is faced with an elite team of dozens of people, let alone annihilating the opponent, it is even questionable whether he can escape alive.
The strength is not on the same level, and the only fate of the enemies is death.
Of course, there is a possibility that the other party cannot find him. After all, the coordinates are only updated once a day. If they are lucky, the two may never meet in this lifetime.
But running away all the time is not a good idea. Being a lone wolf is already difficult, and adding the Grim Reaper chasing you is really too much.
Can't stay.
After an afternoon of struggling.
Wu Qi finally made up his mind.
No matter what happens, compared with your life and property, everything seems insignificant.
However, although it is giving up, there is a difference between giving up and giving up.
Even if the Ice Jade parts are thrown away, they can create value that other equipment does not have.
He had an enemy, and the two sides had been holding a grudge against each other for a long time. With his strength, he could not do much except lying in ambush and occasionally causing trouble for the opponent.
But that devilish lunatic is different.
That devilish lunatic is an elite team capable of wiping out dozens of people.
What if we throw the pieces of ice jade near the team's base?
Based on Wu Qi's understanding of Wang Wanbin, this greedy bastard would definitely not willingly give up the equipment he had obtained even when facing the threat of death.
Exchanging one piece of equipment for the destruction of that bastard is simply a huge profit.
Thinking of this, Wu Qi immediately got up and rushed to the enemy's stronghold under the cover of night.
When Wu Qi passed through a community, a young man looked up at him.
The two looked at each other and Wu Qi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect to see other people on the rooftop at this time.
“So here we are.”
The darkness of the night when vision is extremely suppressed can cause people's sense of direction to be distorted, and sometimes they will end up in a place far away from their destination.
Wu Qi reacted and wondered whose territory this area was.
A well-known fool in the city.
Li Shouyun.
Wu Qi nodded and continued to rush forward without stopping.
If he met other people, Wu Qi would still be nervous, but there was no need for him to be nervous about Li Shouyun.
The other side will even take good care of ordinary people, trying their best to collect supplies and create a safe spot for a group of kind-hearted people. As long as there is no direct conflict with the other side and you are just passing by, it will not be a problem.
Wu Qi quickly disappeared into the darkness. Li Shouyun withdrew his gaze and looked at the blood moon, the only bright spot in the bloody world, and sighed for a long time.
"elder brother."
A sweet call came from behind.
Li Shouyun turned around and saw a young girl who was a few years younger than him. She had long black hair draped behind her, fair skin, and delicate features. But she was very thin, as if she could be blown down by a gust of wind.
"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Li Shouyun asked softly.
"I couldn't sleep after hearing what Sister Yufan said." Li Ziqing shook her head gently, walked to Li Shouyun's side, and said worriedly: "He might come to our place."
"Yeah." Li Shouyun responded softly.
"I heard that many people have left the city." Li Ziqing said again.
"Yes, I heard that too." Li Shouyun said.
Leaving directly is undoubtedly a good idea, but for Li Shouyun, it is impossible to do so. There are more than 40 people in his base whose levels have not yet reached level five. Taking them away is too dangerous for these people.
Li Shouyun did not have the confidence to protect everyone's safety during the long journey.
"But fortunately, there are quite a few people who choose to stay and unite to fight against that madman. I will go to a joint meeting tomorrow and see if I can use some equipment to exchange for some food. Our reserve food is almost finished." Li Shouyun sighed.
Supply cards are the worst cards. For the front-line teams, they would be wasted if they kept them because they took up space. However, for Li Shouyun, they were so scarce that they were not enough.
There were too many ordinary people in his base. Even if they ate frugally, the food consumption rate could not keep up with the speed of acquisition.
"Brother, you must be careful tomorrow."
"Don't worry, let's not talk about this. How is your health?" Li Shouyun said.
"I just had Sister Jiang check it out. Although there are no instruments and they can only do a simple check, there should be no problem and the symptoms have all healed." Li Ziqing said.
After hearing this good news, the worry on Li Shouyun's brow finally eased a little.
The terminal illness before the end of the world was finally healed on its own little by little thanks to Li Ziqing's improved physique as she leveled up.
