Chapter 182: Meeting Li Guofu Again, Favor

A month passed quickly.

During this month, Zhou Chen surprisingly realized that the insects had not come to take revenge on him. Instead, one time, when he returned to that destroyed city to gather supplies, he realized that they had all disappeared, as if they had left this place.

However, just because the insects had left did not mean that the city could return to its former glory. This was because they had already brought considerable pollution to the city, making it no longer suitable for humans to live in.

In this month, apart from occasionally going out to replenish his supplies, Zhou Chen spent most of his time cultivating. Therefore, he was improving rapidly day by day. The range of his Eight Desolates True Energy was now more than a hundred meters. Even a slightly strong attack would be as powerful as a bomb.

The increase in his strength made it easy for Zhou Chen to deal with the monsters and bandits that attacked the camp several times. Those monsters and bandits were smashed into pieces by him before they could reach the camp. After a few times of this, the monsters and bandits stopped attacking the camp on a large scale.

The others in the camp were also in a good state. Because they did not have to worry about food and water, they spent all their energy cleaning the camp and clearing the trash. They also repaired the houses that they lived in.

Hilda even drove out for a few days and bought some potatoes and baby chicks from somewhere. She began to farm and rear chickens in the camp, making Zhou Chen look at her in a new light.

At noon, Zhou Chen was cultivating near the camp when a pickup truck suddenly drove over from the west, stirring up dust.

The pickup truck stopped near him. The door opened and Lucy jumped out.

She ran to Zhou Chen’s side and said, “Captain! I encountered a human when I was collecting supplies there. He said that he has something urgent to tell you!”

“Someone wants to see me? Is it a man or a woman? What’s their name?” Zhou Chen was surprised. No one had asked for him over this period.

“It’s a man. He said that his name is Li Guofu!” Lucy answered immediately.

“Li Guofu?!” Zhou Chen was even more surprised. “Then why didn’t you bring him here?”

He glanced at the pickup truck not far away and asked Lucy.

“Captain, I don’t know him. Moreover, his condition is suspicious…”

Lucy did not understand why Zhou Chen asked this question.

“Sorry, I am a little muddled because of my training. I forgot that you don’t know him at all…”

Zhou Chen awkwardly rubbed his hair that was already starting to cover his ears.

He thought that Lucy knew Li Guofu, but she had been in sleep mode when Li Guofu saw her. She had actually never seen him.

“You said that his condition is suspicious? Give me the details.”

“He has a rather strong pollution aura. His body should have undergone some abnormalities, but he hasn’t completely turned into a monster and is still maintaining a high level of rationality. My data bank has never recorded such a state.” Lucy explained the situation.

“Is that so… Looks like he has had a hard time.” Zhou Chen nodded slightly and said to Lucy, “Park the pickup in the warehouse and bring the jeep out. I’ll call the old man and the three of us will go find him.”

Zhou Chen decided to look for Li Guofu. Although he did not have much of a relationship with Li Guofu, they were still from the same country. There might be a reason why he was looking for him.

As for bringing the old man along, this old man had gained weight during this month in the camp, and his hair had become much darker. It was time for him to do something.

A minute later, Zhou Chen got into the jeep and headed west with the old man.

After the jeep drove for about three minutes, they saw another jeep parked in the wasteland ahead. Beside the jeep stood a young man in a black long coat. It was Li Guofu!

‘This guy guessed that I would look for him and waited on the way?’ Zhou Chen guessed.

Lucy stopped the jeep near Li Guofu. After getting out of the jeep, Zhou Chen smiled at him, “Old Li, how have you been?”

“Not too bad.” Li Guofu replied with a smile. His eyes were clearly bloodshot, and he did not look too well. “Let’s talk over there.”

Then, he walked to the side.

Zhou Chen knew that he wanted to talk with him alone, so he followed.

As he walked, Li Guofu turned and said to Zhou Chen, “I heard from the robot that you didn’t show any abnormalities at all. I didn’t believe it at first, but now I am starting to believe it. You really became a mutant?”

His bloodshot eyes glanced at Zhou Chen, and he sounded puzzled.

“You can say so… I was lucky.” Zhou Chen replied calmly.

“That’s good.” Li Guofu nodded slightly. “If you became like me, our Survival mission would have been a complete failure.”

As he spoke, Li Guofu extended his left hand from his sleeve.

His left hand had already turned into a blood-red claw. It did not look like that of a human. It was no different from the humanoid monsters that Zhou Chen had killed.

“As you can see, I have been affected by the pollution. If not for my strong physique and the use of some potions and tools to suppress it, the person standing in front of you now would be a complete monster.”

At this moment, the two of them had already walked far away from Lucy and the old man. Li Guofu’s voice was calm, as if he did not care that he had become like this.

“But this Survival mission will still continue for nearly eleven months. I feel that I won’t be able to hold on until then, so I want you to do me a favor.”

“What favor?” Zhou Chen looked at him and asked.

“I want you to hand this thing and this letter to the country.”

Li Guofu extended his intact right hand. A dark gray cylinder the size of a water barrel appeared in his right hand, as well as a letter.

When Zhou Chen looked at the dark gray cylinder, he realized that it was labeled by the system.

[High-Energy Electric Propulsion Engine

This is an intact electric propulsion engine. Although it is not large, its power is enough to run a hundred tons plane at supersonic speed for ten years if maintained well.]

‘This thing is high-tech and is in perfect condition.’

Zhou Chen’s eyes immediately lit up when he saw this. He knew that this thing was very valuable..
