“No, thank you!”
Han Rui quickly waved her hands.
It wasn’t that she was being polite, but rather cautious of strangers. Ever since she had been smitten by her husband, she had been extremely careful with these things.
Are you hungry? I still have some food, but not much left…”
Li Qiuyu felt a bit embarrassed.
“Thank you, we have our own food.”
Wang Tao spoke up at this time.
Han Rui was somewhat surprised. When had Wang Tao brought food? But having food was good; being hungry would compromise their fighting strength.
Seeing that Wang Tao and she even refused food, Li Qiuyu suddenly had a realization, as if she understood that the two still harbored caution towards her, a stranger.
“Alright, then I’ll eat something first. I’ve just woken up not long ago and haven’t had lunch yet…”
Li Qiuyu said this and went to the kitchen to cook a small bowl of noodle soup, sprinkling a few green onion pieces in it, then started eating at the bar.
Han Rui glanced over and subconsciously swallowed her saliva.
She had thought she wasn’t hungry, but now she felt hungry again.
At this moment, Wang Tao suddenly handed her a transparent plastic tube.
“Eat this.”
“What is this?”
Han Rui asked curiously.
“Nutritional supplement.”
As Wang Tao said this, he took another bottle from his chest, opened it, and poured it directly into his mouth.
This bottle was apple-flavored, not bad at all.
Han Rui, imitating Wang Tao, opened hers and then smelled a faint scent of white rice.
“So fragrant!”
Han Rui’s eyes lit up, she had almost forgotten what white rice tasted like!
Mimicking Wang Tao, she poured the entire bottle into her mouth. Moments later, she felt a warm sensation in her stomach, which quickly spread throughout her body. She not only felt that her hunger had vanished but also felt full of strength!
This nutritional supplement is amazing!”
Han Rui exclaimed in astonishment.
Wang Tao did not reply; he took out another bottle of the supplement and, like drinking water, downed it into his stomach.
This time it was noodle-flavored, not as tasty as the apple one before.
Han Rui swallowed again. Her mouth wanted more, but her stomach told her she was full.
After Li Qiuyu finished her simple meal, she came back to chat with Han Rui Probably because she hadn’t seen people for a long time, she was very talkative.
“Are you from the Survivor Base?”
Li Qiuyu was somewhat surprised to hear Han Rui reveal her identity.
She hadn’t expected there to be a Survivor Base in Shuize County; she only knew about the one in Red Stone County because the Government had broadcasted it citywide initially.
“Once the zombies outside leave, well be heading back. Do you want to come with us? Ill try my best to ensure your safety,” Han Rui asked.
But Li Qiuyu shook her head.
“I… I can’t leave.”
“Why?”
Han Rui asked, somewhat puzzled.
Li Qiuyu’s face showed a trace of concern.
“I have to wait for my Little Xue to come back; she’s my daughter.”
“Your daughter? Where is she? If you come back to the base with us, we’ll also keep a lookout for news about your daughter. That’s surely better than you waiting here alone.”
Han Rui continued to persuade her.
As a lone woman, it was too dangerous for her to be left behind.
“Little Xue is a student at Shuize University. If I leave, she won’t be able to find me… Before communication was cut off, she called me and asked me to wait for her at home…”
“Ah? A student at Shuize University?”
Han Rui was somewhat surprised, and Wang Tao glanced at Li Qiuyu.
“Our base is at Shuize University, but there isn’t a single student there. Where
was she when she spoke to you?”
“Ah, your base is at Shuize University?” Li Qiuyu was a bit surprised, and then frowned as she said, “She told me that some areas of the school were being renovated, and because the smell hadn’t dispersed yet, they had given the students a few days off. She was participating in a sketching trip organized by the school and was on Shuizhe Mountain…”
Behind Shuize University, there was a river, and not far from the river was a mountain known as Shuizhe Mountain. Shuizhe Mountain wasn’t very tall, but the scenery was quite nice. Wang Tao had been there a few times, and he had also seen many students sketching and painting on the mountain.
Every year, Shuizhe Mountain would host a large number of Shuize University’s students, with many accommodation facilities available. Wang Tao felt there might be a shady deal between this tourist area of Shuizhe Mountain and the university. It was so close to the university, yet students needed to stay on the mountain? It seemed to cost several hundred yuan for one night.
If Li Qiuyu’s daughter was on Shuizhe Mountain, the odds were probably not in her favor. It wasn’t just because there were many people on the mountain, hence lots of zombies. More importantly, the wilderness had those nameless monsters with massive amounts of HP!
“I hope your daughter Little Xue is safe…”
Han Rui sighed, but she didn’t speak any words of despair. Perhaps the reason Li Qiuyu had managed to hold on was because of her daughter. If she told her that her daughter was likely dead, it would be extremely insensitive.
“I’ll leave you a walkie-talkie so you can contact Shuize Base if you need to in the future.”
Han Rui handed her a walkie-talkie.
“Thank you so much!”
Li Qiuyu quickly took it, and then the two of them started chatting again The zombies outside hadn’t left, so chatting was the only way to pass the time.
Wang Tao could clearly feel that the relationship between the two women had grown closer, but it was mostly Li Qiuyu talking and Han Rui listening.
Wang Tao didn’t join in the women’s conversation, resting with his eyes closed.
Of course, he wasn’t really resting, but rather checking his Space Backpack.
After killing the Archer Zombie, there wasn’t much time to inspect the spoils, so Wang Tao had only glanced at them briefly and hadn’t looked at them in detail. Now, while he had some time, it was a good opportunity to take a closer look.
First was the Zombie Core-a Red Crystal Core with a circular mini-target inside.
[Level 1 Crystal Core ? Precision Shooting]
[Quality: Excellent (80%)]
[Purity: 50% (Side effect: Blindness in one eye)]
[Precision Shooting: During the effect duration, the user’s shooting accuracy is greatly enhanced.]
This was a sustained ability Crystal Core, similar to Toughness, and its attributes nearly made Wang Tao drool.
Wang Tao was currently lacking such long-ranged attack capabilities, and learning to use a bow wasn’t something he could master overnight-it would take time. If he fused with this core, he would shortcut a lot of detours!
But the side effect of this Crystal Core was a bit frightening, causing blindness in one eye…
Fortunately, Wang Tao could create Synthetic Crystal Cores, so it was a matter of when he could get another core of the same type. For the time being, it was definitely not an option to fuse with it.
Wang Tao then looked at the other spoils of war.
[Precision Hand Crossbow Blueprint xi]
[Crossbow Arrow Blueprint xi]
[Alloy Recurve Bow xi]
[Quiver xi]
[Arrows X30]
