Chapter 68 Folk Inventors



Nothing happened that night; both monsters and humans remained on the sidelines.

The next day, Gu Mingyue got up, drank a very strong cup of coffee, and slowly walked downstairs with Xinghe.

A crow-like monster perched on Shen Ming's shoulder and walked behind her.

The hallway floor was polished to a shine, and all the dirt and trash had been swept away. Only some brown bloodstains remained on the walls, which had also been sanded.

The bald men's bodies were all thrown out of the apartment building.

He was secretly taken away by other bald guys at night, and I don't know what will happen to him.

When Gu Mingyue reached the tenth floor, she saw Wei Jianguo and the others standing in a row in the corridor, looking at her with trepidation, like employees being subjected to a surprise inspection.

Gu Mingyue nodded gently.

She was somewhat surprised to see that there was still more than half a bucket of water left.

Given the current water shortage, it's quite remarkable that these people were able to save most of a bucket of water for her and leave it untouched until now.

"You can use the rest of the water as payment for your work last night," Gu Mingyue said.

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hallway immediately bowed deeply with delight, saying, "Thank you, boss."

Water resources are so precious these days!

This beautiful woman is such a kind person!

These people didn't know Gu Mingyue's name, so they called her "boss" along with Wei Jianguo.

Gu Mingyue glanced at them a few times and felt that these people addressed her as a boss in a much more pleasant and enthusiastic way than when she used to give her employees year-end bonuses.

Without saying much, he called Wei Jianguo out alone.

She first stamped a loyalty mark on him. She wasn't very interested in the other things in the exchange machine in her space, but she was quite envious of that super survival outfit.

It even protects against nuclear radiation, which is indeed quite life-saving.

After the seal was stamped, the loyalty display showed 79, meaning she had gained 79 more days of life.

"Tell me in detail how you've been fighting those freakish cannibals these past few days," Gu Mingyue asked Wei Jianguo.

Wei Jianguo didn't know why Gu Mingyue stamped his hand, and it was a mark that disappeared immediately. He glanced at the back of his hand, and then immediately replied, telling Gu Mingyue about his experiences over the past few days.

It turns out that after the monster left, the guard team arrived in Black Tiger City and broadcast the location of Hope Base over the loudspeaker.

A large number of armored vehicles dispersed from the southeast, searching for the survivors of the Flower Kingdom.

Time was of the essence, so they didn't stay in one place for long.

So the ogre squads followed the guards, and after they left, they began to massacre the remaining lone survivors.

Junyue Mansion is far from the city center and is located by the water and mountains, with few people. Unfortunately, it was occupied by this group of cannibals and turned into a den of monsters.

Upon arrival, they immediately dispatched people to guard the two north and south gates of the community, and twelve people were stationed on the high floors of the apartment buildings in the four cardinal directions, holding guns. If anyone tried to climb over the wall to escape, they would immediately draw their guns and shoot.

There were only thirty-odd residents left in Junyue Mansion, of whom fewer than five were superhumans. They were no match for them, and in the end, only half of them retreated to Building No. 4.

The remaining people, relying on Wei Jianguo's previous military experience and the weapons they made together with Guan Hongtao, a civilian inventor, waged a guerrilla war against the cannibals and struggled to survive.

During this time, people were constantly being killed, and in the end, only Unit 4 remained unconquered. So, they learned from Gu Mingyue and welded locks onto the fire doors of the stairwell, which allowed them to hold out until the day she returned.

"Boss, those guards seem to recognize you. One of the female guards, wearing combat uniforms, waited for a long time after the 16th floor was locked. When she saw that you hadn't returned, she finally left with a few survivors."

"Oh." Gu Mingyue guessed that it might be Xu Lanyue; it seemed they were also thinking of her.

Gu Mingyue silently kept it in mind.

“Take me to see that folk inventor Guan Hongtao you mentioned.”

Seeing that he had successfully introduced Gu Mingyue to Guan Hongtao, Wei Jianguo quickly led her to Guan Hongtao's residence.

"Boss, he's a real talent. You'll see for yourself when you see him."

Gu Mingyue and he went up to the 11th floor, which was a room full of various parts. Several steel pipes were placed directly in the living room, and various welding tools were also scattered on the floor, making it look somewhat messy.

A bearded man wearing glasses slowly walked out, accompanied by a little girl with a choppy, uneven fringe.

He was a little reserved. "Boss, this place is a bit messy. Please sit here." The sofa in the living room was covered with sawdust, so he took out the cleanest chair from the dining room.

"No need, but would it be convenient for me to take a look at the flamethrower you modified?" Gu Mingyue began to feel a little curious about him after seeing all the strange and unusual things in his living room.

"Of course, feel free to look around. If it weren't for you yesterday, we don't know what would have happened!"

He then led Gu Mingyue to a bedroom, where various finished and semi-finished devices were displayed.

The flamethrower was made by modifying three fire extinguishers.

One nozzle is for air, and the other for oil. The nozzle is a very simple steel pipe.

Guan Hongtao was clearly excited to be here, and immediately put on the clothes to demonstrate to Gu Mingyue.

The little girl beside him clearly took after her father in personality, and she excitedly showed Gu Mingyue a small flamethrower made from an alcohol bottle.

That little flamethrower was actually more like a toy.

Simply fill a spray bottle with alcohol, fix a burning compressed mask five centimeters in front of the nozzle, and spray out the alcohol. A flame twenty or thirty centimeters long spreads into the air, turning it into a small flamethrower.

The little girl lost control of the direction and accidentally set her father's pants on fire.

Guan Hongtao wasn't angry. He casually picked up a wet towel from the table and easily blew out the burn, which looked like it had been burned more than once. Then he went to the window to show it to Gu Mingyue.
