Chapter 198 Weeding Mission (13)
"But we have absolutely no experience in this. Instead of going out alone and getting badly injured, not knowing if we can win, we might as well take advantage of this opportunity to go with them and...see the world." Lan Jin stopped talking after he finished speaking a bunch of his thoughts.
But in all these words, there was no mention of not agreeing to the other party.
In fact, the other three people had the same idea as her. Combat experience is one thing, but the prize is too tempting, which is another matter.
Lao Gao said, "But no matter what we do, we must base it on our own safety. We have only been away from the community for a few days, so we must not get killed on the road."
When Ling Jiang heard this, he said with a look of disgust, "Can't you even talk? Can't you bring us a good start?"
"I'm trying to make you understand the importance and danger of this matter. Nothing is more important than our own lives. Don't rush into anything. It's not so much that I'm talking to them, but rather to you. Don't you understand how impulsive you are? And you still don't listen? Forget it, I don't want to tell you. Anyway, just be careful when the time comes."
Of course, since we've accepted this mission, we all have to do our best. Since Brother Zhang asked us to go, he must have been impressed by our abilities. There are some things we have to rush to the front, but in everything, our own lives are paramount."
Lao Gao gave many warnings and instructions to make sure everyone knew what was going on.
But I do have an idea in my mind. If something really happens, who will care about these things?
"Alright then, agree to it tomorrow. Also, before we leave, I'll prepare a cup of spiritual spring water for each of you to keep on your person. If we get separated or injured, drink it quickly to save your life."
Lan Jin stated his decision very seriously. Of course, no one would object to it.
But don't blame Lan Jin for being too nervous. There's nothing she can do about it. They know nothing about these things. They can only prepare for the worst.
…
The next day.
After breakfast, the four of them found Brother Zhang and told him their decision.
Brother Zhang was overjoyed. "Thank you so much! With your participation, I'm sure the success rate of our mission this time will be much higher."
"We've already agreed to participate in this mission, so shouldn't we be informed of the mission's content?"
"That's for sure."
After saying that, Brother Zhang took them to the 7th floor of the building. After opening a door, they saw a small meeting room.
The conference room was equipped with computers, LED screens and everything else. When Lan Jin first came in, she felt as if she had returned to the group meeting before the apocalypse. However, it was only for a moment, because the content of their meeting did not really require these things.
…
In the conference room.
Brother Zhang first politely poured a glass of water for the four people, and then said, "Our mission this time is to weed."
The four of them were stunned when they heard this. Is weeding what they understood it to mean?
"It's just what you think. Doesn't it sound incredible? But what I want to say is that this mission is definitely not simple. The grass in that area has all mutated. I haven't been there myself, but a team of psychics at our base has taken on this mission. They went out with a total of 10 people. According to the news they kept passing back after going out, the journey was extremely dangerous. By the time they officially entered the weeding area, the 10 people had been reduced to 5. Two days later, these five people also disappeared. So, in addition to the task of weeding, our most important task is to determine whether these people are alive or dead."
Lao Gao asked, "What about the range? You must have a range, right? Your area is full of mountains. It would take you ten days or half a month to walk through this large area."
Brother Zhang took out a map and said, "We can't go that far. We can reach the weeding area in two days by car, and this special ability team was able to send out a rescue signal only the day after arriving. They can't get very far in two days."
On the map, there was a spot circled in red. Brother Zhang pointed to it and said, "Based on their misfortune and the satellite phone's final positioning analysis, it's right here. No matter how far away it is, it can't be further away from here. We'll do our best to search for it based on our own safety. If we can find it, that's great. If not, I won't stay there for long. After all, apart from the four of you, no one I'm with has special abilities."
"Since you don't have any special abilities, do you have all the equipment?"
"We have everything. You can rest assured. Even if the people I bring with me don't have special abilities, they are not ordinary people. They all have some combat experience. Moreover, after you confirm your participation, I will also apply for a set of equipment for each of you, as well as food for the trip. In short, you can rest assured about these things."
After saying this, Brother Zhang hesitated and said, "Although you have already promised me, I still want to reiterate that this journey is full of difficulties. Please be fully prepared for the journey."
Needless to say, we will definitely encounter those mutant creatures along the way. Kill them and they will be added to our meals. If we can't kill them, they will become our meals.
But regardless of whether there are meals or not, there will definitely be casualties in the process. Although there will definitely be military personnel accompanying them all the way, the equipment and medicines will definitely not be as complete as in the base. Therefore, people who are seriously injured on the way basically cannot survive and return to the base.
Shouldn't we make this mental preparation in advance?
But now is not the time to be sentimental. Brother Zhang reminded them, "Anyway, be prepared. Also, since you are psychics, in addition to the standard weapons, we will also prepare six crystals corresponding to your psychics. In case of any emergency, you can also use them for recuperation."
This was something they hadn't expected, but couldn't this be bought and sold? They hadn't seen any crystals for sale on the 12th floor yesterday, nor in the shopping mall, so where could they buy them?
Brother Zhang said, "Ordinary people don't need them. Those with special abilities will communicate directly with us, so they're not on the counter. Do you want to buy some to keep in stock? Or, you don't need that many Fire Crystals from yesterday, do you? You can trade them for crystals. Crystals of this type are all worth the same anyway."
Lao Gao had no objection to exchanging yesterday's crystals for crystals. After all, these were all the result of everyone's hard work. He said, "Didn't you guys have them in your bags yesterday? Just exchange them for the corresponding ones. It's convenient at the base anyway, and you can use them when traveling later. If it's not enough, I have more here."
