Chapter 114 Zombie Siege (7) - Select Mission
Ning Shu estimated that Cheng Chuan's trip would not be easy and advised him:
"You've had a long day. Go take a hot shower and go to sleep. We can discuss it again tomorrow."
Cheng Chuan was indeed very tired. He had done all the work today, carrying three people on his own, so he went to rest.
Ning Shu also went back to sleep, and this time she slept until dawn.
Perhaps because it was the first day of the zombie crisis, many people, like Fang's father, thought there would be official rescue.
Since food was not yet in short supply and everyone was staying at home, the first night was Christmas Eve.
The next day, after Ning Shu finished eating, she pulled Cheng Chuan and Wu Yi aside in her room to discuss something.
Ning Shu: "Let's talk about the mission. For mission 1, Cheng Chuan and I share the same idea: to make this the starting point for establishing the survival zone."
Ning Shu told the two how she had tricked the Fang family yesterday, trying to motivate the NPCs as much as possible, otherwise the three of them would be exhausted.
"As for the next two tasks, what are your thoughts?" Ning Shu asked.
Wu Yi started thinking too: "I think mission 2 might be a little easier than mission 3?"
Who knows how terrifying a zombie siege is? Only a fool would willingly go to his death. He's a smart kid and doesn't want to die.
Ning Shu and Cheng Chuan are also intelligent children, and they don't want to do Task 3 either.
However, Ning Shu had calculated that to hunt 100,000 zombies, he would need to kill an average of more than 3,000 zombies per day to reach the target.
Whether it was difficult or not, she didn't know, but this was a path she had to try.
Cheng Chuan: "How about we do mission 2 first?"
The other two people strongly agreed, and this clause passed unanimously.
Ning Shu continued, "So, what are your thoughts on Task 1?"
Task 1 requires helping the NPCs set up a survival zone with at least 100 NPCs.
Ning Shu didn't know if these 100 people counted as the entire villa area; she thought they probably didn't.
If we're going to count, the first progress bar from last night's system notification should have been full, so these 100 people probably had to be recruited by themselves.
Cheng Chuan knew Ning Shu had something to say, so he asked, "What are your thoughts?"
Ning Shu told them about the clues she had just discovered, and then offered her own thoughts:
"I think the key to completing Task 1 is that we need to gather more NPCs here, and we must actually establish a survival zone with a management system."
Cheng Chuan agreed with this point.
Wu Yi didn't care; he was used to following them anyway, and he would do whatever they did.
Seeing Cheng Chuan nod, Ning Shu continued, "I think the next thing we should do is go out and find more people, gather them here, and then hand them over to Uncle Fang to manage."
However, he's probably just clever; now it's time to talk about brute force. What are your ideas on how to solve this problem?
The requirements for Task 1 are actually quite tricky. It requires "helping" NPCs build a survival zone, so the protagonist is naturally an NPC. It's probably not feasible for a player to act as the leader.
Otherwise, the requirement should be something like "establish a survival zone with at least 100 NPCs."
Ning Shu wasn't sure if her understanding was correct, and if she was right, she didn't know how many players would fall into this trap.
Cheng Chuan thought for a moment and said, "I found some of the weapons you asked me to find. I just happened to pass by a police station and went in to grab some handguns."
Actually, he robbed the police station.
There were still some officers on duty at the police station at that time, but they couldn't stop a skilled player like him, and they had no choice but to obediently hand over what he wanted.
"How about we give these weapons to Uncle Fang so he can use them for defense?"
Ning Shu thought it was a good idea. Since they needed an NPC leader anyway, they might as well use him until a more suitable candidate came along.
Ning Shu: "My idea is that we should be selective about who we help."
Regardless of age or gender, everyone should at least be kind. Don't come here causing trouble; inviting trouble into our home is not a good idea.
agree.
Ning Shu: "For safety, we should try to travel together. If we have to split up, we should decide for ourselves whether it is appropriate to bring back any NPCs we encounter on the way."
After all, they are independent individuals with their own ideas, and they deserve this much freedom.
If they bring back a difficult person, just get rid of them. It's not good to let a wolf into the house, but what if they actually do and you don't deal with them?
The three of them discussed the matter for more than an hour before leaving the room.
Cheng Chuan found Fang's family, gave them the pistol and other equipment, and instructed them to guard the villa, as they had to go out on a mission.
Upon hearing this, the Fang family members understood that they were going out to carry out a mission assigned to them by the country, and they all nodded in agreement.
Before leaving, Ning Shu told Fang's father, "Uncle Fang, remember to come back tonight to check the plan."
Mr. Fang naturally agreed. Writing business plans was an indispensable skill for him as an entrepreneur, but this was his first time making a post-apocalyptic survival plan.
Ning Shu and his friends drove around in their SUV, holding a map of the city. Ning Shu saw a primary school not far from them and suddenly had a brilliant idea.
"Cheng Chuan, what do you think of us going to this school?"
Cheng Chuan was driving and it wasn't convenient for him to look at the map, so he stopped and let Wu Yi drive while he sat in the back and looked at the map with Ning Shu.
"School?"
"Yes, there must be a lot of students in the school. If we can rescue 100 people, then the mission will be a perfect success."
Cheng Chuan thought it was a good idea. He looked at the calendar in the copy and saw that it wasn't during the holidays, so the students were most likely in class.
"Okay, let's go to school then."
And just like that, they finalized their itinerary.
Wu Yi had a question at this moment: "Brother Chuan, Sister Ning, you want to save 100 students, but our villa can't accommodate that many people, can it?"
Not to mention that the supplies they found couldn't support so many people for too long.
Ning Shu and Cheng Chuan had both thought about this issue, but they thought that as long as they completed the task directly, they would leave the question of whether or not they could stay to Fang's father.
He is the leader of this survival zone; after they complete their mission, they should go and kill the zombies.
Ning Shu: "Let's save people first, and then see how things go."
Cheng Chuan was more rational: "If there's not enough room, let's see if there are any vacant villas."
"Pry open the locks and get them in. There are so many villas; it's impossible for everyone to live in every one."
Actually, after he got up in the morning, he was thinking about whether he should unite the people in the other villas and set up a survival zone together.
However, as Ning Shu said, most NPCs are currently waiting for official rescue, and all they want to do is hold onto their supplies and survive.
At this point, it was unlikely that he would agree to form a survival zone, so he gave up.
I thought it would be more appropriate to make this request after those people ran out of supplies and wanted to take advantage of the situation.
