As people who have lived in the scene for several months, Teng Zijian and others certainly have ways to find businessmen.
It was a small compass that could be pinned to your body like a pin. When needed, you could take it off and see that the small pointer inside pointed to a certain place, which was the direction in which the merchant appeared.
"This thing is not expensive. You can also buy one. It will help us find the merchant more conveniently. There should be some other team members at the merchant. If you meet someone with a more friendly attitude, you can exchange some things." Teng Zijian said. As he led the way, he was very familiar with this campus, especially how to move under some cover as much as possible during heavy rain. The heavy rain that would have caused a suffocating feeling if it stayed for a little longer did not pose any more threats now.
Liu Shan and Chen Qiguang each wore a night vision goggle on their right eye. This thing can provide a smoother vision at night. The main purpose is to monitor the direction of the aerial rainmaster and always remind Teng Zijian who is leading the team ahead. .
Uncle Zhen and Lu Bin were at the back of the team, each holding their weapons and walking sideways on their shoulders. Although this was not fast, they could react quickly to any danger and leave enough space for those in front. Time comes to the rescue.
To survive to this day, you must have your own way of survival.
"Senior, twenty meters ahead, there are ghouls." Chen Qiguang suddenly whispered.
"Um."
Liu Shan glanced over there, pulled out a crossbow arrow from the black backpack on his back, and loaded it into the crossbow. Teng Zijian stopped and stopped the team from advancing, allowing Liu Shan to take aim.
After taking aim for a second, the crossbow arrow was suddenly fired. The sound of an explosion could be heard through the rain. Liu Shan hung the crossbow bow back on the hook on his backpack and nodded to Teng Zijian.
"continue."
Teng Zijian gave a thumbs up and then led the team forward.
When passing by that location, Lu Ning saw the torn body of the ghoul. The crossbow arrow hit from below the left shoulder, but its power tore the monster into several pieces. Lu Bin quickly jumped to the body, searched it, and then immediately ran back to the team.
"Aren't you going to recycle the crossbow arrows?" Lu Ning asked Liu Shan.
"This is a commonly used crossbow arrow. I have a crossbow box and it will be automatically recycled." Liu Shan knocked on his backpack. "There are many such magical things from merchants. It's a pity that the better things are, the more expensive they are."
In this way, there were a total of seven pauses along the way. Each time, Liu Shan used long-range sniping to kill the monster directly, and then the team continued to move forward. Lu Ning also roughly understood what the so-called automatic recovery was. After Liu Shan shot the monster for the fifth time, she fastened the zipper of the backpack to a lock on the side, and then pulled a tie hanging down the backpack. There was a slight metal sound from the inside, as if a bullet was being loaded, and when he walked to the monster that was shot, the crossbow arrow was no longer visible.
Although this was very convenient, Lu Ning didn't really envy Liushan this convenient way of killing monsters. First of all, there are actually not many monsters wandering around everywhere, and most of them are small characters with very low returns. Liushan killed seven monsters along the way, but collected less than fifteen copper coins. This The efficiency is actually quite low and is only suitable for long-term accumulation.
"arrive."
Finally, Teng Zijian walked to the downstairs of a building. This building was in front of a small square. It had three floors. There were stairs to enter both inside and outside. It was the E5 floor built as a canteen and activity center. Coincidentally, another group of people arrived at this time.
"Hey...Brother Teng?"
The two sides only saw each other when they were close, and while they raised their weapons, they both recognized each other.
"It's been a long time, Sun Bin." Teng Zijian's tone was a little cold, as if there was some unhappiness between the two parties.
"You have a lot more people. I'm very happy. What's the matter? Don't bother. How about going in first to see what good stuff the merchant has?" Sun Bin gestured to the door with his thumb, and Teng Zijian responded casually. Go inside.
The first floor is the cafeteria. Of course, the purpose of the cafeteria is no longer available at this time. The abandoned tables and chairs have been moved away by people who came here in advance. The windows where the food was supposed to be served are now closed, and some of the glass has long been broken. opened.
Lu Ning found that there were quite a few people here.
There are men, women and children, of course the youngest is still a college student. These people were wearing all kinds of weapons, and some even had the blood left from fighting monsters just now. These people gathered in small groups, and there were nearly twenty people at one count. indivual.
"There are a lot of people." Sun Bin exclaimed exaggeratedly as soon as he came in. Lu Ning found that he had brought a lot of people, a total of twelve including himself, and they were all wearing camouflage uniforms and bulletproof vests, but they each carried The weapons are different.
Sun Bin also just discovered that there were many women among the people brought by Teng Zijian, and immediately whistled: "You can do it, how can you find so many girls?"
"We just met." Teng Zijian didn't want to say more. Sun Bin curled his lips and turned his eyes to Yan Rong, "Girl, why did you choose Brother Teng and the others? To be honest, he is a good person, but that team is not full. Survival is a problem if you don't wear warm clothes. It looks like you are new here, so you should choose a team that allows you to live better, right?"
Yan Rong raised his eyebrows: "It sounds like your team is quite strong?"
"Not to mention anything else, there are twelve combatants. This is a quite luxurious lineup, which ordinary teams cannot afford." Sun Bin proudly put his hands on his hips, "In this world, combat power means safety, and our team is undoubtedly It’s the safest one, think about it?”
Zhou Weiyuan quietly pulled Yan Rong's clothes to prevent her from suddenly making any impulsive behavior, and then he walked out and started chatting with Sun Bin.
Lu Ning was too lazy to care about the nonsense over there. What she cared about most was the people in this place. Since she could come here, it meant that other tourists who entered this scene might also be able to come.
Soon, she saw two targets.
The two people were sitting on two tables, completely inconspicuous in the corner, but Lu Ning immediately recognized their faces. They were two of the five members of the puppet party who were the target of this mission issued by their superiors.
Yu Fen was a muscular man with short, messy hair and a black vest. His eyes were sinister, and he occasionally looked at other people like a butcher looking at the meat on the chopping board. There was a sharp knife in his hand, which looked like a kitchen knife, but Lu Ning knew that Yu Fen was very good at close combat, and an ordinary weapon was also very dangerous in his hands.
This man was considered to be the thug among the five. Since Lu Ning had not received any information about his background, he did not know what heinous things he had done. There is another person who needs special attention, named Hu Yuan.
This person is sitting at another table. He has a round face, a little fat figure, and smiles all day long. He is different from every person at the puppet party that Lu Ning has seen before. Although those people can also laugh. , but it’s either evil or fake, but Hu Yuan’s smile is so sincere that it makes people think that he is a sunny and happy old man.
There were some analysis reports given to Lu Ning about him. Hu Yuan killed a lot of people, and was even similar to Lu Ning in some aspects - he was very good at designing the deaths of others. But he really doesn't think killing is wrong. He thinks it is a sacred duty to free those who are living in pain from the troubles of life, and he is proud of it. The final comments on his profile also listed him as someone akin to a religious fanatic and warned not to underestimate this guy who was completely twisted.
Lu Ning didn't focus on the two of them for too long, and immediately looked away after confirming that it was them. At this moment, strange tinkling music sounded in the restaurant.
It was like someone in a very distant place was trying to play a sad music with a poor-sounding instrument. The changed tone made the music sound particularly weird. Lu Ning couldn't help but cover her ears. Many people around her did the same. As the sound gradually became more distant and reverberating, lights lit up in the surrounding windows, and clouds of mysterious purple smoke rose from the doors and windows, sealing off the entire cafeteria.
Five short men wrapped in gray robes walked out from behind the lighted display window. The faces under the robes could not be seen clearly. Only two green flames flickered like eyes. Each short man had a small hand in his hand. Dragging a suitcase that was about the same size as their bodies, they walked to the center of the restaurant, put the suitcase upright next to them, and then sat down cross-legged.
One of the short men spoke: "The scheduled trading time has arrived. Everyone, we have one hour. Don't waste it. Tell us what you need and what you can pay." His voice was powerful.
Immediately, another short man continued: "Don't worry, we want and sell everything... Weapons? Food? Medicines? Even... people, as long as you think of it, you can buy and sell it here." The voice is high-pitched and harsh.
"Make sure you can afford the price. We don't accept bargaining. Paupers are not qualified to make demands." The third one was a slightly neutral female voice.
"It's the same for anyone who wants to trade. Get in line, stay one meter away from those who don't want to trade, and protect what you buy..." The fourth voice was old and slightly weak.
"Now, please come to us." The last one was an electronic voice.
The moment the last person finished speaking, everyone rushed forward and lined up. Teng Zijian and others were very experienced and quickly occupied a front position, allowing Lu Ning and others to take advantage.
Lu Ning took a look and saw that the queue he sent was in front of the first one, the short man with a strong voice. The two people in front quickly completed the transaction, stuffed their things into their arms and left in a hurry. , dove into the purple smoke and left the canteen.
"That purple mist..."
"To isolate the outside world from entry, the businessman will seal off the scene after he appears. No one or monster can enter, so he must arrive in advance." Uncle Zhen explained.
It was Teng Zijian's turn. He squatted down and whispered a few words to the businessman. Then he got a list and quickly made a choice. It seemed that these people had already prepared their purchase options and saved their money. It's been a while.
Followed by Liu Shan, she didn't ask for a list, but spoke a few things to the businessman, but her voice was so low that Lu Ning couldn't hear it. The businessman directly took out a suitcase for Liu Shan from the big suitcase. I opened the bag, checked it, and handed over the money with satisfaction.
Immediately afterwards, Uncle Zhen, Chen Qiguang, and Lu Bin also completed their transactions. Lu Ning waited for Lu Bin to leave, then walked over, and Yan Rong and others immediately followed.
"Can we come together please?"
"A team? Okay, tell me what you want." The short man didn't even raise his head.
This has been discussed long ago.
"I want a list of polearms, a list of swords, handguns and thrown firearms, portable food, emergency medical supplies and monitors."
After hearing this, the businessman immediately took out several lists from his suitcase. Lu Ning took them, glanced at the names, and handed them to the corresponding people.
Yan Rong's decision was the fastest.
"I want this Dragon Coil Gun, one silver coin."
Lu Ning took out the money and handed it to the businessman. The businessman reached into the suitcase again and pulled out the two-meter-long spear. Now he was basically sure that the box must be a good thing, but no one dared to snatch it.
However, Yan Rong was very excited. After getting the spear, he shook his hand like a child with a new toy.
Then, Xu Jianqi also chose a sword, but she was too embarrassed to buy an expensive one like Yan Rong, so she only chose a high-strength straight sword, which cost thirty copper coins.
Pistols are weapons for Rong Han and Cang Su to defend themselves. When they were pursuing powerful weapons, they both chose revolvers. By the way, they also bought a serrated dagger. In addition, Zhou Weiyuan bought several medicines, Qin Yulou got the tools and monitoring devices he wanted, and Lu Ning bought general food and medicines in person. But in the end, Ning Yeyi and Lu Ning asked for a silver coin and The businessman changed a backpack and put some items in it. When Lu Ning asked what she bought, she only got the answer "secret".
But in this way, the money was spent very quickly. All the silver coins and copper coins were spent, leaving only the gold coin at the bottom of the box that I was not in a hurry to use.
Lu Ning actually saw the items that must be purchased with gold coins, and also found that the merchant did not have a gold coin purchase option, which meant that this item was really rare.
For example...compression bomb.
This one-gold-coin consumable has the effect of compressing all matter within ten meters around the blast center into a volume the size of a table tennis ball. It is a thorough cleaning method that, even in terms of scientific and technological civilization, is definitely beyond the capabilities of this era. Technological strength.
In the list of gold coins to buy, this thing is still the cheapest.
