Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Tran station
“Yesj Commander!’1
Soldier 002 took a look at the wound. Without a word, he tore a piece of cloth from his sleeve and began to bandage it.
As an Al, his logistics work was indeed nor up to standard. Nor only did he not have a gun, he did not even prepare a medical kit.
After another ten minutes, Soldier 003 and Soldier 004 walked out.
“Commander, Soldier 003 is here to report!”
” Commander, Soldier 004…”
“Yes!”
Zhao Yu nodded and glanced at the resource balance on the control panel.
[Flesh: 47 kg]
[Gold: 203 grams]
[Silver: 581 grams]
[Copper: 1622 grams]
[Cloth: 1838 grams]
Given the criteria to create soldier, it takes 20 units of gold, 5 units of silver, 3 units of copper, and only 1 unit of cloth to make one without considering the flesh and blood now.
Moreover, all the criteria must be met to train a soldier. If even one component is missing, he cannot produce a single soldier.
All of the same height and almost similar physique but with different facial features.
In no time, he believed the number of people under his command would increase.
“There are four mutants outside. Each of you will take on one. 1 have only one rule: try not to get hurt and aim for their heads or necks as those are their weak points…”
“Be careful. Apart from their sharp teeth and claws, they have a
two-meter-long tail with spikes at the end…”
He wasn’t sure if they understood him, but he explained the mutant’ features and weaknesses anyway.
After speaking for a while and getting no response from the them, Zhao Yu understood that theyrd only speak when given a command.
He quickly distributed the weapons, commanded, “All of you, follow me out to kill these creatures!”
“Understood, Commander!” They shouted in unison, their voices resonating with such power that it left Zhao Yu impressed.
“Alright, let’s move!”
Zhao Yu confidently opened the door and led the way.
“Attack!”
At his command, they charged out.
Zhao Yu faced off against one creature, always wary of its tail. But, the creature in front of him didn’t use its tail.
Until they were within a meter of each other, and the creature hadn’t used its tail spike, Zhao Yu couldn’t resist and slashed at it with his knife.
Splash!
The mutant in front of him was slightly shorter. It clawed at Zhao Yu’s abdomen, but at the cost of losing its head.
Hiss!
Zhao Yu sharply inhaled, clutching his stomach and bent over in pain after confirming that the creature was dead.
He didn’t forget the other three creatures on the side. Despite the pain, he lifted his head and was astonished to find that the three soldiers had efficiently killed rhe creatures.
Like him, they too had bloodied wounds, either from bites or scratches.
The only difference was that Zhao Yu was in obvious pain, while they seemed to feel none. After dealing with the creatures, they approached Zhao Yu to report.
Zhao Yu couldn’t help but fall to the ground, constantly checking his wound.
Lucidly, these three soldiers were only robots. Otherwise, he would’ve completely lost his status as their commander.
“Two of you, throw their bodies into the recycling furnace. Soldier No. 2, help me with my wound…”
Rip!
Without saying another word, Soldier No. 002 tore off a sleeve from his uniform, preparing to bandage the wound.
“Go, get two bottles of water!11
Zhao Yu didn’t dare to bandage it directly, fearing an infection.
Although there was no alcohol to disinfect the wound, washing it with water was better than leaving it untreated.
He poured a large bucket of purified water to wash away the blood. Only when the clear, deep gashes appeared did Zhao Yu allow Soldier No. 002 to bandage him.
Once the wound was treated, Zhao Yu looked at rhe three soldiers and noticed that their wounds were still bleeding. He said, “You should clean and bandage your wounds as well.”
After giving the instructions, Zhao Yu limped back into the training camp.
He didn’t understand why, even though it was his abdomen that was injured. His legs felt paralyzed.
Upon entering the base with the remaining resources of the training camp. Zhao Yu felt very happy about it.
The quant.i.ties of gold, silver, and copper remained unchanged, while the fabric had increased from the previous 1,838 grams to 3,108 grams. The flesh and blood had gone from 47 kilograms to 288 kilograms.
[Do you want to spend 30 grams of gold, 300 grams of silver, 1,500 grams of copper, 3,000 grams of fabric, and 198 kilograms of flesh and blood to train three soldiers?]
Yes!
Soldier training in progress (0/3). Training time: 15 minutes.
Zhao Yu took another look at the remaining resources.
I Gold: 173 grams]
[Silver: 281 grams]
[Copper: 122 grams]
[Cloth: 108 grams]
[Flesh: 90kg]
What he lacked the most were copper and cloth.
Zhao Yu investigate the options of the training camp for a while before he returned to the base.
First of all, he took off his dirty clothes and wiped his body with water.
After washing up, Zhao Yu took out some food and started to eat.
“The taste of the canned food was terrible, like cat food, but it was better than compressed biscuits.
The water was a bit cold, it’s a pity that although there was electricity in the base, there was no kettle to boil water.
15 minutes had already flown by.
Walking out of the base gate, six soldiers stood there in a neat line.
“Haha!”
Zhao Yu laughed with satisfaction. From now on, he wouldn’t be alone!
At this moment, Soldier No. 002 stepped forward and voluntarily said:
“Reporting to the commander, my body is greatly exhausted. Soldier No. 002 requests food!”
■•???«
Zhao Yu quickly realized that al! these soldiers needed to eat!
“What will happen to you if you don’t eat?”
“Reporting to the commander, if we don’t eat, our strength will decrease over time. We would die of thirst in at most three days and starve to death in seven…”
Zhao Yu noticed a bracket above Soldier No. 002’s head with the word “Hungry” written inside.
Zhao Yu ushered them into the base and distributed the food.
What was originally enough food for him alone for three or four days was completely consumed by the six soldiers in just ten minutes.
“Can you eat even if you’re nor hungry?” Zhao Yu felt a pinch in his heart when he looked at the empty cans and wrappers,
“Reporting to the commander, we can eat in advance to replenish our strength…”
“Understood…”
From now on, Zhao Yu would need to provide each of these soldiers with some food to carry to replenish their strength. Since they were short of foods now, it is time to go out for gathering resources.
Zhao Yu distributed the knives in his hand, one for each person, but he was one short.
He even handed over the only kitchen knife he had.
The six soldiers stood upright and looked imposing. If each had a gun, they would be even more formidable.
“Let’s set off!”
Zhao Yu glanced at the time; there were about three to four hours left before the daily tasks would refresh.
It was a good time to gather more resources and recruit more soldiers.
Although his wound still hurt a bit, at least it didn’t affect him much now.
Zhao Yu took the lead, leading the six soldiers to the factory entrance.
Watched at the numerous buildings inside the factory, he felt a sense of unease.
Ever since he learned about the concept of perception in this world, Zhao Yu had paid great attention to his feelings.
After all, he had previously dodged bullets based on his intuition.
He feared that there might be some danger inside the factory, but since there had been no issues over the past few days, he decided not to risk. He would wait until he had gathered enough strength and then eliminate any threats.
Zhao Yu hid themselves at the side of the road, looked at rhe situation, nodded in satisfaction, then looked in the direction of the town, and declared spiritedly.
“Let’s go!””
