Chapter 300 - 300 299 Such a Foresight
?Chapter 300: Chapter 299: Such a Foresight Chapter 300: Chapter 299: Such a Foresight Many people present knew Nick’s identity, so they were quite receptive to his recruitment of Luo Ning.
On the contrary, they grew quite curious about Luo Ning.
This woman could crack the most advanced smart locks and password locks, had exceptionally good shooting skills, and now could even alter game programs.
Yes, and there was also the talisman-drawing mentioned by those people earlier.
Just how many skills did she have? It seemed Huaxia Team had found a treasure this time.
Luo Ning’s fans were overjoyed on the barrage comments.
“Our Brother Ning just unlocked a new profession, technical consultant for a gaming company.”
“It sounds so prestigious, Brother Ning is mighty!”
Seeing the live broadcast, executives from major domestic gaming companies were itching to make a move.
They planned to poach Luo Ning from Star Emperor Entertainment as soon as she returned to the country.
Fu Ci was also watching the live broadcast, and seeing Luo Ning unlock a new skill, his face was filled with helplessness.
Lately, many research institutes, companies, and individuals had approached him privately, wanting to poach Luo Ning.
Having employees who are too excellent can also be a concern.
Lu Xun was on a mission out of town, but he watched the live broadcast whenever he had free time.
Seeing Luo Ning unlock so many skills, he wasn’t surprised; after all, he knew she was capable of these things.
But as he watched her confident and radiant appearance, his longing for her deepened.
Thankfully, the live broadcasts allowed him to see her every day; otherwise, he might go crazy with missing her.
Elsewhere, the helicopter landed at the base’s airstrip.
Luo Ning had contacted Liao You via walkie-talkie in advance, so when she arrived at the airstrip, he was already standing not far away with some people.
After disembarking, Liao You had dozens of people board the base’s shuttle bus and then took them to register and arrange temporary accommodation.
The base was now overcrowded; apart from the first few groups, those who wanted to stay at the base had to apply for temporary residence permits.
They were all uniformly arranged in the lowest-level security zone, eight people sharing one house.
This was the free accommodation provided by the base; if one wanted to live alone or switch to a four-person or two-person room, they would have to pay with currency points.
Seeing the rooms that were not very nice and especially crowded, the faces of the dozens of people were not too pleased.
In the outside world, they were either successful people or second or third generations with family backgrounds; otherwise, they wouldn’t be enthusiasts of high technology and weapons, which were very costly hobbies.
This was the first time for them to share a room with strangers, and just the thought was uncomfortable.
Especially since they didn’t feel it so keenly without comparison, but once compared with the villa Huaxia Team stayed in and the resources they used, their discomfort and sense of unfairness grew.
But they had just arrived at the base, hadn’t collected any resources yet, and hadn’t taken on missions either; they were, in effect, penniless and had no choice but to endure it.
“Thank goodness Huaxia Team has Brother Ning, or they’d have to squeeze in with others too.”
“They’re probably cursing people in their hearts and envying, being jealous and hating Brother Ning and their villa.”
“Seeing these people’s sour faces and disdainful eyes, why do I feel a bit of schadenfreude?”
“Haha, you’re not the only one.”
Without comparison, there’s no harm done, and the live broadcast watchers felt this even more keenly.
The barrage on Huaxia’s side became more and more jubilant.
Viewers from other countries kept cursing and complaining under their own country’s live broadcast window.
It was so embarrassing; couldn’t these guys be a little more impressive?
Especially the six teams that were ranked ahead of Huaxia Team, they were the ones getting lambasted by their own country’s viewers the most.
If they couldn’t perform outstandingly in the upcoming live broadcasts and turn the situation around, they probably faced being ripped to shreds once the competitive events were finished and they returned home.
Luo Ning and the others took a car sent by Liao You back to the villa.
They stayed at the villa for two days, and besides cooking and drawing talismans, Luo Ning spent the rest of her time playing games with others.
That day, not a few teams took the initiative to knock on their door.
This time, they weren’t asking to buy the information on finding the second clue but directly wanted to purchase the second clue itself.
They really couldn’t afford to struggle anymore.
Especially after hearing that the first teams were taken advantage of by the Huaxia Team, they had all changed their minds.
It was pointless to travel dangerously to such a distant place and then not be able to unlock the secret.
It was better to just spend two currency points to buy the ready-made information.
After purchasing it, they would go to other teams that had also received the clue and verify its accuracy.
Luo Ning and her teammates didn’t lure them to the laboratory, anyway, as long as each team spent two points, anyone could come.
They didn’t want to visit Dr. Luo’s laboratory anymore either, it was a waste of time and effort.
Then, as soon as these people sent the text message to transfer the total points, Luo Ning turned on her phone and showed them the video she had recorded.
Huaxia language is now one of the international standard languages, so these people could understand, and most of them could even read the text.
They were all shocked, clearly not expecting Luo Ning to have recorded the clue on her phone.
That woman was really forethinking.
Aside from the teams that had visited the laboratory before and gotten the second clue, none of the others had yet.
Obviously, anyone who wasn’t a fool was coming to Huaxia Team to buy it.
Two points per team didn’t sound like much, but with so many teams coming to buy, the Huaxia Team could easily earn at least dozens or even hundreds of points just by sitting in the villa.
No wonder they were actively providing clues and various services. If they had such an opportunity, they would too! What an easy way to make money!
Such an easygoing life – why couldn’t they live it?
Over the next half a month, Luo Ning and people from other teams were running back and forth between the base and the outside.
Their main task was to accomplish the mission related to the first clue.
The mutant birds in the sky became increasingly vicious and their number was also rising constantly.
When the vicious birds were infected by the virus and turned into Zombie Birds, Luo Ning’s talismans came into use.
Especially later when they started encountering flocks of Zombie Birds, the sniper rifles couldn’t keep up with the headshot speed.
She would throw a stack of talismans out, precisely sticking them onto the Zombie Birds’ heads, making them freeze in place and crash to their deaths.
During the missions outside, the talismans were used a lot and to great effect.
As a result, Luo Ning’s team was the most comfortable and relaxed team performing tasks.
Every day they flew the helicopter around the city to rescue survivors.
At the same time, they would pick up a couple of missions released by the base and finish them off.
They were also joining the construction and defense of the base.
In one day, they could collect three types of values for total points transfer, leaving other groups green with envy yet helpless.
Other teams, on the other hand, were in a more pitiful state, always driving out in their clean and tidy vehicles and returning mostly disheveled or even wounded had become a norm.
Twenty some days in, only Luo Ning’s team remained intact, while other teams had either been wiped out or suffered casualties.
As the days passed, everyone couldn’t help but become anxious.
Some teams had sent people to investigate on both sides of the base, yet there was still no clue as to who had released the Zombie Virus.
They also had Dr. Luo’s laboratory under surveillance.
But whether it was Dr. Luo or his assistants, including Su Wei, they all looked normal.
Dr. Luo’s laboratory had decrypted the Zombie Virus at a lightning speed and was now researching an antidote.
