141 Mission Failed
Tang Susu realized that although this young man with a buzz cut looked about the same age as her, he was very cunning.
Zuo Xun had a troubled expression on his face as if he was struggling with his own demons. Finally, he decided.
“I can’t give you the supplies or we won’t be able to survive. But I can take you to a shelter nearby.”
As he said that, he deliberately paused, waiting to see their expectant expressions.
Along the way, they encountered many people looking for a safe place to stay.
After all, the journey was dangerous. Although everyone knew that the capital was the safest, how many people could successfully reach it?
Would they be able to get the protection they wanted when he arrived?
Currently, the higher-ups in various locations couldn’t even protect themselves, let alone the common people!
However, the Tang family’s reaction was extremely calm. They even looked at him sarcastically, as if they were saying, “That’s all?”
Zuo Xun’s expression couldn’t help but turn a little pale. He didn’t know how much he had earned from selling this information. They couldn’t possibly think that they could walk around freely outside with those minor skills of theirs, could they?
“That’s the last sanctuary that still stands in this province, and it’s also the nearest shelter. Not only is the location quite good, but it can also provide us with a safe place to live. There are also specialized staff who oversee the responsibilities of multiple departments. They can even provide some fresh vegetables and fruits. Everyone can exchange supplies there. In short, it’s much more comfortable than wandering outside alone!”
If the Tang family were ordinary people who didn’t know how the apocalypse worked, they would be moved by his words.
Unfortunately, Tang Susu directly exposed his half-truths. “The shelter you mentioned is a small village in Chongzhou, isn’t it?”
Zuo Xun’s face quickly flashed with a trace of astonishment.
“The surname of the person who manages the place is He…”
He heaved a sigh of relief. “I don’t know which location you’re talking about, but a man with the surname Wei manages the shelter I���m going to!”
“Wei?” Tang Susu frowned.
Zuo Xun saw that she was finally showing other emotions other than confidence and immediately started showing off, “Wei Chunhua. I’m not sure if you’ve heard of the ‘King of Wooden Doors”? That’s him. The Wei enterprise is the biggest manufacturer of wooden doors in our country. He started from scratch and is honest, so the shelter he built and managed is very popular with everyone!”
“However, in order to enter that place, in addition to handing over some resources or crystal cores, you also need someone to introduce you…” Zuo Xun had actually added a lot of half-truths into his words.
However, the Tang family had long since stopped paying attention to what he was saying because the name Wei Chunhua had already taken away all their attention.
Tang Susu even thought that the original manager of the shelter in the plot had changed because of Ying Chengya, who could “predict the future”.
Uncle Wei had become the manager there…
Tang Susu and her family looked at each other, and everyone understood each other’s thoughts.
They must go!
Mr. Tang trusted Wei Chunhua and thought that they could stay in the shelter that he built for a short time. He didn’t think about the long term.
Tang Susu wanted to find Ying Chengya, the “female protagonist” who dared to negotiate with the country.
However, just as she was about to say something, a voice suddenly rang out in her mind.
‘The host has left South City. The S-Rank Mandatory Mission has not been completed. The mission has failed. 100 points will be deducted. You have 91 points left.’
‘A new mandatory mission is now available. You cannot fail mandatory missions more than twice or 10 times the number of points will be deducted. If there are no points, the host’s level will be reduced. ‘
‘Newest mandatory mission: Investigate the Dead City. SS-rank!’
‘The time limit is seven days!’
