Chapter 291 - 291 290 Shameless to the Extreme
?Chapter 291: Chapter 290: Shameless to the Extreme Chapter 291: Chapter 290: Shameless to the Extreme Several team captains, following Bo Xuan’s instructions, proactively sent short messages to the system number.
Luo Ning then compressed the recording and sent it as an audio short message to them.
Only then did the captains open the recording and carefully listened to the clue content.
They understood why the Huaxia Team wanted them to trade using total points.
One captain asked, “I heard you’ve also obtained the second clue?”
Bo Xuan nodded and smiled, “Yes, we’ve obtained that too.”
“The difficulty of obtaining the second clue is much higher than the first one, so if you want to buy it, it’ll cost two points.”
The captains exchanged glances with each other.
“I heard you can also sell the laboratory’s location separately and the methods to find the clue?” the captain asked again.
Upon hearing this, Bo Xuan and Luo Ning guessed that these people had been in contact with the two teams that had previously bought information.
However, it was obvious that these people had been tricked by those two teams.
Although the base had not arranged for people to visibly guard the laboratory, they had secretly arranged for people to watch from a distance.
Therefore, so far, aside from Luo Ning, no one else had managed to crack the smart lock.
The two teams probably spent a point but couldn’t open the laboratory door and were annoyed.
So they deliberately released the information, also tricking other teams in the process to feel more balanced.
Bo Xuan and his friends were happy with this outcome.
“Yes, we do sell such information, just for one point.”
The captains immediately said, “Then let’s buy that type of information.”
Currently, only the Huaxia Team had obtained the second clue. If they directly bought the information, who knew if it was real?
Having obtained the first clue, although they believed the content should be true, they still needed to verify its authenticity with other teams who had also obtained the clue.
Otherwise, if it was a false clue or mingled with deliberately misleading false information, they would be troubled.
Bo Xuan had already followed Luo Ning’s advice, written the information on dozens of paper slips, and then pulled them out of his bag to hand them to these captains.
People from other teams: “…”
It seemed these guys had been so well-prepared, probably planning to sell the information on the second clue for a long time.
Although they especially didn’t want to give points to the Huaxia Team, they had no choice but to grit their teeth and buy it.
Otherwise, they would spend even more time looking for the location, which would be more trouble than it’s worth.
After the transaction was completed, these people were just about to leave.
Suddenly, a knock at the door sounded.
Fan Ye got up to open the door and saw several soldiers from the base standing at the entrance.
A tall and skinny man among them said to Fan Ye, “Captain Liao has sent us with supplies, please ask Luo Ning to sign for them.”
Luo Ning had heard them and got up to walk over, “I am Luo Ning.”
“Please sign here.” The thin, tall man smiled and handed her the receipt form.
After Luo Ning signed, the tall man directed others to move the stuff inside.
Then, the people in the living room saw various daily necessities, food, and water being carried in.
The amount of these supplies was not small, completely enough for Huaxia Team to last a month.
At this moment, all of them turned into bitter lemon spirits, sour to the core.
At the beginning, the collected supplies were not much, and their food and water could only last for two more days at most.
Thus, they had all been searching for food and water recently, but unfortunately, the big supermarkets in the city were already occupied by zombies, and they couldn’t break in.
The supplies in shops and houses on the streets were either taken away by the base or had already been found by other survivors.
They were still wondering what to do when they found out that not only did the Huaxia Team have a villa in the base’s safe zone, but they also didn’t have to worry about supplies.
Not to mention daily necessities and clothes, sheets, rice, and even chicken, duck, and fish, the Huaxia Team was living too leisurely.
This wasn’t like coming to an apocalypse competition, it seemed more like they came for a vacation…
Fan Ye and his friends could easily see the envy, jealousy, and hate on these people’s faces, their own smiles exceptionally brilliant, even somewhat smug.
Envious, right? Let them be dead with envy.
Once those people left, someone couldn’t help but ask, “Why would the base send you so much supplies?”
Fan Ye puffed out his chest, “Our Brother Ning helped the base complete two difficult tasks, so we received these rewards.”
“Brother Ning?” Everyone was a bit puzzled, who was Brother Ning.
Seeing their confused faces, Fan Ye then realized and pointed at Luo Ning, “She is our Brother Ning.”
People from other teams: “…”
Calling a beautiful female team member ‘Brother’, they couldn’t understand what the Huaxia Team was playing at, wondering if there was something wrong with Fan Ye’s brain.
They could only sheepishly smile and praise insincerely, “Your Brother Ning is indeed powerful.”
Actually, they were all quite perplexed.
“What important tasks did you help the base complete?” Everyone was really curious about this.
To be rewarded with a villa and so many supplies, the task they helped with must have been extraordinary.
Fan Ye was just about to refuse to answer such a question, but Luo Ning spoke up first.
“There’s no harm in telling you, Dr. Luo’s laboratory door has a smart lock, previously only the person who turned into a zombie could open it, so no one could get in.”
“Just so happens I have a study on smart locks, so I went to help the base open the door and rescued the research personnel inside, thus earning these rewards.”
She didn’t reveal the matter of the armory.
Those present were all stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting such a thing.
They still had their doubts, “Then you’re quite amazing.”
Luo Ning smiled, “It’s alright.”
She suddenly asked, “By the way, you know the coordinates of Dr. Luo’s laboratory, but do you know how to get there?”
These people shook their heads, “No idea.”
They hadn’t thought about the problem of traveling before, but now thinking about it, it suddenly gave them a headache.
Here, mobile phones and car navigation couldn’t connect to the network, so they couldn’t use them.
They couldn’t find a city map either and didn’t know how to get there.
One person asked, “Is it far from here to the laboratory?”
Luo Ning replied, “If you don’t count zombies blocking the way and obstacles on the road, it’s about half an hour’s drive.”
Hearing that, everyone’s headache worsened.
A half-hour drive meant definitely taking a lot of detours, and they simply didn’t know how to get there!
Everyone thought for a moment, “Can you provide the route for us?”
Luo Ning said with a smile, “Even if we described it to you, which roads to go through, how to get there, you wouldn’t recognize the roads and still wouldn’t be able to find them!”
Everyone sighed, “It’s really troublesome.”
In their hearts, everyone cursed the organizers for deliberately making things difficult.
Luo Ning, seeing their distressed expressions, said with a smile, “However, I’ve collected about a dozen maps here; if you want, I can sell them to you.”
Now was the time to sell them; once the teams entering here became familiar with the city routes, they couldn’t sell them anymore.
People from other teams widened their eyes, unable to believe they were hearing this from Luo Ning.
Damn, they could even do this? The Huaxia Team is shameless…
