Chapter 308: The Procedure to Enter Shichang City (Part 3)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There were geographical and historical reasons Shichang City was known as the “Food Kingdom”.

Not only was it the closest to the various centers of production of aquatic products and livestock, but it was also used as a granary during ancient times, and it continued for several dynasties. Even today, one of the country’s five major granaries was built here.

When the group heard the words “canned food”, “dry food”, “beverages”, “snacks”, and “granary”, their minds instantly came alive.

They were so excited that their blood pressure shot up!

However, those factions also made them flinch, especially since they recruited metahumans. It was obvious that it would be difficult if they wanted to take over the place.

Before this, everyone thought that as long as they reached Shichang City, they wouldn’t have to work hard to find supplies like in other places. They could simply pick up supplies everywhere.

The truth was far from their imagination.

Duan Hongyu had obviously gotten up before dawn to look for people to gather information, and he was still continuing with his task.

“Among all the factions, the faction ruling over Jingkai District is two-faced. They might seem easy to communicate with, but they are actually very sinister. The foreign forces in Yude County were the most unruly. They only looked at money and not the people. The official forces in Hongcheng District were the most stingy and conducted any transactions. The forces in the Dadong District were the most disorganized. In fact, they were formed by a few minor factions, so they were relatively open to the outside world. It was said that the rural faction in Chuanji County was the most honest, and their words and actions align.”

“In addition, there are security checkpoints at all the important intersections in Shichang City. If you don’t have a pass, prove your strength and find a faction to host you in Shichang City. You have to stay for over ten days before you can get a pass.”

Everyone couldn’t help but wince in pain. “This is even harder than finding supplies elsewhere!”

“Pass? It’s a pity that I don’t have a superpower, and they don’t want me either.”

“Don’t be tempted. We still have family in Chongzhou Shelter.”

Only then did the crowd stop discussing and calm down.

“The more difficult it is, it also means that the more abundant the resources they have inside. We have to think of a way to get in and get them.”

Tang Susu knew that Duan Hongyu had more to tell, and as expected…

“Other than the above methods, the pass can also be got through under table methods. However, it’s very difficult to get one, and it requires five T3 crystal cores!”

“What the heck!” Everyone was speechless. Among the people present, only the Tang family had over five T3 crystal cores. Even the other metahumans didn’t have enough.

Duan Hongyu’s heart was rather heavy. “The other option is to trade with them as a trader and get a temporary pass. Shichang City doesn’t lack food and drink, but they do lack other things. What they lack the most right now is medicine!” Everyone was shocked. “We have a truck full of antibiotics, but we need those for ourselves too!”

“Why don’t we sell what’s in the truck and exchange it for supplies? Then, when we pass by An’nan City on the way, we can go back and pack some more?”

In the spacious room, dozens of people were huddled together. Their discussions were noisy and urgent. Tang Susu raised her hand to call for their attention.

The crowd instantly quieted down.

Sang Rou, who was at the outermost edge, looked at Liang Jun with a sad expression. “In the past, you were always the one standing in the center of the crowd, guiding everyone on what to do. Everyone listened to you and followed your lead…”

Then she paused. “I don’t know what your shelter is thinking. Everyone recognizes you, and you’re just as good as her in terms of ability and experience.”

Liang Jun didn’t hear her muttering at all. He was looking at Tang Susu seriously and listened to her.

“There are too many of us. Even if we go in as traders, it’ll be difficult for all of us to enter together. We have to leave some people behind. The outer area of Shichang City is probably mixed with the good and the bad. For safety reasons, it’s best for some of us to stay here. It’s not too far from Shichang City, only 30 kilometers.”

“As for who stays and who goes, everyone can discuss it among themselves. However, we need to be clear that Shichang City may be even more dangerous than the road we have taken before!”

In the beginning, everyone was very moved and wanted to fight to be the first. However, they calmed down when they heard this.

“How about this? I’ll go alone for our team?” Lu Yunxiang said. Manager Duan wanted to say something but hesitated and didn’t refute her decision.

“I’m definitely going to go.” Bai Yanhui was a little amused. “So those resources are theirs now that they’ve occupied them? If that’s the case, they’ll be mine too if I can snatch them back!”

“I’ll go too.” Lao Yao came from the underground parking lot and appeared at the door. “On behalf of our Wind Squad. Xie Fei and the captain are both injured. They aren’t suitable for running around and facing the danger that might arise.”

Xie Fei was exasperated and Liang Jun didn’t want to stay either. However, thinking of Sang Rou, he could only suppress his impulse, and his face darkened.

Tang Susu remembered the circle she drew in the diary and agreed.

Cheng Cheng, on the other hand, pulled Xiaoyuan over and said that she wanted to stay. “I can protect them and kill zombies nearby to accumulate more crystal cores.”

Hearing this, the metahumans of the Shelter looked at each other. They didn’t want to take the risk either.

In any case, someone would bring the supplies back eventually. They could still earn some extra cash here and there.

Hence, no one else raised their hand, which was exactly what Tang Susu wanted..
