“You’re a soldier?!”
A woman stepped forward, asking the question. “Oh, by the way, my name is Liu Yuan. He is w.a.n.g Shuai. We forgot to ask for your name last time…”
“Zhao Yu!”
Zhao Yu nodded.
“If you’re a soldier, are countries still at war?”
“How’s the nuclear radiation?”
“What’s with those strange creatures?”
People started asking questions all at once.
“Why did you come up to the surface instead of staying safely underground?” After briefly answering a few questions, Zhao Yu asked.
It seemed the crowd had a particular thought in mind. They whispered among themselves and then Liu Yuan approached him to explain the situation.
“Two of our refuge’s generators broke down, affecting one of our greenhouse zones. We were sent out to find some parts from a nearby photovoltaic power plant.”
“So that’s the reason you all came up.”
After all, during the initial construction phase, everyone believed the war wouldn’t end quickly.
Naturally, they had to consider rhe possibility of living underground forever.
“Brother Zhao, the photovoltaic power plant is far from here, and we don’t know much about those creatures. Would you be willing to help us?”
“You all need my help?”
Zhao Yu touched his chin, replying, “That’s not my decision to make.”
He pointed to his military rank on his shoulder, saying, “I’m just a centurion; I don’t command the troops.”
Troops?!
Did this mean there are more soldiers beside them?
With the help of these soldiers, they might be able to safely retrieve the needed equipment.
“Brother Zhao, can you take us to meet your leader?” Liu Yuan pleaded with a pitiful look.
“That’s not possible.”
Zhao Yu shook his head. “Our camp’s location is confidential. I can’t bring outsiders there…”
Liu Yuan looked disappointed.
“But helping isn’t out of the question…” Zhao Yu added.
Everyone rejoiced.
“If you can trade some food with us from our camp…”
“We can discuss that; our refuge has food!”
“Absolutely!”
“Let’s go back now and talk to the administrators…”
As the crowd was eager to leave, Zhao Yu quickly stopped them.
“We still have a mission here. How about this: 1’11 come to your refuge in three hours to meet you, okay?”
Everyone didn’t think too much about it and agreed.
After the group left, Zhao Yu continued leading his men towards the county town.
Three hours later, it would be the time for the daily mission to refresh. At that time, he might be able to complete his mission on the way.
Of course, it would depend on whether the fallout shelter administrator would agree to the deal.
In Zhao Yu’s opinion, the possibility of them agreeing was very high.
Twenty minutes later, Zhao Yu finally reached the county town. The streets were filled with the mutants. The mutated humans he had killed earlier were like a drop in the ocean compared to those in the county.
“Soldier 003, make some noise to lure them. Meet us at the three-way intersection in half an hour.”
“Understood!”
Soon, Soldier No. 003 led a large group of the mutants away from the main street.
Zhao Yu quickly led the others into the town. “We need gold, silver, copper, and fabric. Take as much as you can. Gather here in ten minutes.”
With the brief instruction, Zhao Yu rushed into a nearby shop to start searching.
By rhe time Zhao Yu returned to the gathering point with a backpack full of supplies, all the five soldiers had already taken their positions.
Compared to him, they had gathered much more. Each soldier carried a bundle made from bed sheets filled with materials.
A smile broke out on Zhao Yu’s face. “Retreat!” he ordered.
They made their way back to the three-way intersection without any incidents. Soldier No. 003 was already there, and there were no creatures in sight.
“Well done!”
Zhao Yu handed his backpack to Soldier No. 003 and led the group back to the base.
Once they reached the base and dumped all the resources into the recycling furnace, Zhao Yu quickly checked on the gathered resources.
[Gold: 798 grams]
[Silver: 3522 grams]
[Copper: 17235 grams]
[Iron: 32423 grams]
[Snare: 13122 grams]
[Cloth: 85693 grams]
[Flesh: 992 kg]
This trip could be said to be a great harvest. Other than the flesh and blood that had not changed, the other resources had increased by many times.
What surprised Zhao Yu even more was that there were only gold, silver, and copper, but this time there was iron and tin.
The resources for training the soldiers had not changed. They were still the same as before.
“So, iron and tin are the resources needed to exchange for other buildings?!”
Zhao Yu didn’t think too much about this and directly created three more soldiers.
The moment the three soldiers came out, Zhao Yu also received a system notification.
[The number of soldiers trained has reached 10, and the option to exchange for land infantry has been activated. I
“I can train the land infantry!”
Zhao Yu’s face lit up as he quickly opened the stats of the infantry.
