“With the Meng House Village is gone and your people scattered around while escaping. What are your all plan to do next?!”After chatting with them for a while, Zhao Yu felt that they did not seem to be bad people.

” Our village and everything at the base is gone, but the people are still here. We can still build a second Meng House…”

Meng Xian looked determined, and said with a faint smile, “That Black Water Town you mentioned seems to have a good location. If possible, we plan to rebuild our base there…”

That sounds quite good!

Zhao Yu was a bit tempted. This group was strong and if they could settle in the town, their protection would guarantee his safety.

Still, he had some concerns and asked, “My Town is not far from the county, only about ten kilometers away. There’s a mutant beast residing there. Won’t being so close attract the beast?!”

“Hahaha!”

Little Six laughed a few times and said, “You’re overestimating us…”

“To the mutant beasts, we are just ants. They don’t care about humans. And even though these beasts are huge, they seem to consume a lot of energy and mostly sleep all day. Even if you fire a gun right by their ear, there’s hardly any reaction…”

“Have you observed the mutant beasts up close?!” Zhao Yu asked him.

“Of course not!”

Little Six said proudly, “Do you think we’re like you, just staying in one small place?!”

“The things the Reed Group needs are mainly in the cities. There are many mutant beasts there. We’ve seen more mutant beasts than you’ve seen wild animals…” Meng Xian interrupted Little Six.

Cities…

After the apocalypse, the rich fled to the countryside, and the poor stayed in the cities.

Those big cities; they were the primary targets for nuclear attacks. Now they had become the favorite places for mutant beasts.

He had heard that some brave souls would venture into the cities to gather supplies.

Things like gasoline and diesel had almost been completely scavenged in small towns and even countryside. The supply only available in the cities now

The small town where he lived was under the jurisdiction of Stone Sea City. It hadn’t been hit by a nuclear bomb, but it had a nuclear power plant, which attracted many mutant beasts.

“Aren’t you afraid of nuclear radiation?!”

“In this world now, compared to nuclear radiation, whether we can live to see tomorrow is more important, right?!”

“The Reed Group has technology to remove nuclear radiation contamination from the body. Although it’s expensive, it’s still a hope you could granted with money…”

Zhao Yu admired their optimistic attitude. Compared to these people, he hadn’t really lived long in the post-apocalyptic world.

After all, he spent most of his time underground. Every time he went out, he only ventured a little and returned as soon as he got some food.

With his wealth of over a billion, building an underground shelter was more than affordable. The remaining money was mostly spent on stocking up on supplies, which had been gradually consumed over the years.

For others, the apocalypse had been around for four or five years. But for Zhao Yu, it might have just begun.

“How have you survived all these years?!”

The few of them were a little curious. They did not understand how he had lived until now.

“Before the end of the world, 1 stored up a lot of supplies and have been relying on them to survive…”

“A rich guy…No wonder!”

The group looked at Zhao Yu with renewed interest, examining him up and down, but their expressions soon returned to normal, with a touch of pity.

Being rich was enviable in peaceful times. But in this chaotic world, the years of survival experience Zhao Yu missed might hasten his death.

“You’re lucky you met us…”

“You left your home because you ran out of supplies, right? If you hadn’t met us, you probably wouldn’t have lasted long…”

“From now on, you’ll work under me. As long as you work hard, you won’t go hungry…” Meng Xian laughed and said.

“I have a wife and two younger sisters at home…”

“Don’t worry. After re-establishing our base, there will be plenty of jobs. I’ll arrange everything.”

Meng Xian waved her hand, signaling him not to worry. She would handle such matters.

Zhao Yu let out a sigh of relief, it seemed his safety was secured.

At that moment, a system alert sounded in his mind.

[An E-grade mini base will be delivered from the moon base to you. Please choose a location to place it.]

Mini base?

Zhao Yu also shared the memories of the main body, so why had he never heard of such a thing?!

He quickly asked the system.

The mini base was a castrated version of the lunar base. The E-grade mini base that he had owned could exchanged for only technology knowledge or weapon of 0.5 civilization. Other than that, there was no available upgrade function.

In addition, the Technology Points spend in this world would accumulated and be deducted when the consciousness was connected to the main body at moon base.

The system didn’t explain more details. It only told Zhao Yu to choose an empty space as soon as possible to set up a mini base.

Zhao Yu was pleasantly surprised. With this mini base, he would be safer now.

When it was almost dark, the group finally arrived at the edge of the town.

“Little Six, go in and take a look…”
