Chapter 75: Cannon Fodder in the Last Days 9

Because his cheap father is the leader, Ruoshui is doing well at the base. Occasionally, he also helps manage various matters of the base.

If the water is idle, there is nothing to do, so take the water around with you.

Walked to the center of the base, and at the center of the base was a huge central square.

Before the end of the world, it was a holy place for square dancing aunts.

After the end of the world, it became a large-scale bazaar, with people selling food, zombie crystal nuclei, and some women who were in the skin and meat business.

If the water just goes around here, a whole bunch of people start shouting at their stuff.

Ruoshui took a cursory look at it, and there was nothing he wanted to buy.

I was about to leave, yes, I saw a mother and daughter, the woman was about thirty years old.

The daughter is four or five years old, looking at Ruoshui with a pair of big watery eyes.

Although the mother and daughter are thin and haggard, they can't hide the gentle temperament in their bones.

Unlike the chattering vendors around, the woman just stood quietly at her stall.

The stalls are not selling things such as food crystal nuclei, but books.

In such a post-apocalyptic world where there is not enough food and clothing, who will buy books to read.

Even though the square was bustling, many people looked at the mother and daughter with strange eyes, but no one would buy it.

Ruoshui walked over and squatted down in front of the stall and looked through the books carefully.

There are many ancient books in history, precipitating the breath of time, not only books, but also cultural relics.

These ancient texts, and their contents, would be invaluable if they were before the end of the world.

But now that the times are over, it is estimated that even a piece of bread is not worth it.

When the woman saw Ruoshui reading her book, she said, "Before the end of the world, these were all treasures in the National Museum."

Ruoshui didn't speak, just looked down and looked through the books.

When the woman saw this, she thought that Ruoshui didn't believe what she said, and immediately explained:

"To tell the truth, before the end of the world, I was a librarian, and these were the library's collections."

"After the end of the world, my lover and I wasted a lot of effort to bring them out."

"Now that my lover is dead and my children are hungry, what's the use of keeping these books empty."

"The reason why I took it out and sold it was actually because I wanted to find someone who really cherished it, and maybe I could exchange it for some food."

"Second, in these days, people who can exchange food for a book must cherish books very much."

Ruoshui looked like that woman, with a little helplessness between her eyebrows and eyes, and a little reluctance to these books.

For the sake of food, in order to live, faith must be abandoned, and this is the saddest place ...... this last days.

Ruoshui thought as she flipped through the books.

Suddenly, Ruoshui's pupils shrank suddenly, and he was a little surprised in his heart, but he continued to look at it without changing his face.

Among these ancient books, there was a book with a tattered parchment on the cover, and a musty smell came from the book when it was opened.

The words in the book don't seem to be of this era, and no one can understand them.

But if the water let the system interpret it, it will be realized that the content of this book is actually about the end of the world.

This book prophesied the appearance of the end times and described in detail the minutiae of the end times.

He even talked about how to survive these last days safely.

The book mentions that no matter what kind of ordeal it endures, the world will leave humanity with a glimmer of life.

Su Yaoyao's bracelet is a glimmer of vitality left by the world.

At the beginning of the end of the world, the bracelet was displayed, but it fell into the hands of a selfish person like Su Yaoyao.

Except for herself, Su Yaoyao did not tell anyone about the existence of the space bracelet.

There is a wide small world in the space bracelet, and the vegetation in the small world is beautiful, and the soil is fertile.

It is completely enough to accept all the people of this world, so that the people of this world can survive this last day safely.

The book also says that the so-called end times are the inevitability of human evolution.

After the end of the world, some humans will gain abilities to evolve into new humans, and zombies will automatically evolve into another species.

However, due to the unconscious eating instinct in the early stage of evolution, it will eat its own kind.

If at the beginning of the end times, humans are put into the space bracelet to live.

After the zombie evolution fully regains consciousness, the human beings will be released, and then the world will safely enter a new era.

If this book is true, then Su Yaoyao can be said to be a sinner for all mankind.

If nothing else, let's just say that now humans and zombies are slaughtering each other, and the world's population has decreased by some means.

Even if the zombies have evolved completely after many years, there are not many people and zombies left in this world.

At the beginning of the apocalypse, fifty percent of human beings have become zombies, and zombies and humans have slaughtered each other for so many years, how many can you expect to be alive.

Ruoshui put the book away, took a few zombie crystal nuclei to the woman, and said to the woman:

"I want all these books, I'll take this one first, and send the rest to the administrative building in the north to find someone named Li Peng."

"Just report my name, my name is Fang Ruoshui, and after delivering the book, let them arrange a place for you to live in the 11th district of the north."

After saying that, Ruoshui left, and the woman looked at the three crystal nuclei on the ground, which were twice the size of ordinary crystal nuclei, and she believed that Ruoshui would not lie to her.

After all, these three crystal nuclei alone can be exchanged for four big bags of rice by the supernatural.

The value of four sacks of rice is simply not the same before and after the end of the world.

But in the 11th district, only people with great contributions can live, and they are all those who built the base together in the first place.

By the way, this young lady's surname is Fang, could it be that she is the daughter of the leader of the base, Chief Fang? Where are these precious books that may be best protected?

At least it doesn't have to be sold for food, as it is now.

The man watched as he departed, his eyes full of gratitude.

After Ruoshui left the bookstall, he walked straight to the center of the square.

In the center of the central square, there is a two-story building, and judging by the brand-new appearance of the building, it is estimated that it should have been built after the end of the world.

Next to the entrance of this building stands a sign-like thing that reads "Mercenary Guild".

No matter what kind of world it is in, the Mercenary Guild is a magical existence, Ruoshui sighed.

Out of curiosity, Ruoshui walked in with Shuiruo.

In the hall, there is a constant stream of people coming in and out.

In the center of the hall is a large screen scrolling through the published quests and the price of completing them.

In the lower right corner of the big screen is the ranking of each mercenary group.

There are difficult and easy tasks, and the simple ones are like helping to find someone in the base.

And it is more difficult to find materials, kill zombies and the like, and the relative rewards are also more.

In this world, money is a pile of waste paper for people.

What circulates among the supernatural is the zombie crystal nucleus, while the ordinary people are directly bartered.

Ruoshui was also bored in the base, looking at the tasks posted on the big screen, Ruoshui was a little eager to try.

Why don't you build a mercenary group yourself, just do it, Ruoshui immediately went to the counter and said to the person receiving at the counter:

"I'm going to register a mercenary group, and the name will be ......, well, what to teach."

"It's hard to think of a name, just call it nameless," Ruoshui said.

The young lady who received her saw that Ruoshui was white and pure, and she didn't dare to slack off:

"I'm sorry for this young lady, if you register for a mercenary group, you need to pay three crystal nuclei, and the number of people is at least three."

Ruoshui was a little disappointed, and looked at Shui Ruo next to him, and he and Shui Ruo combined were only two people in total, so let me find a third person.

If you don't go back and pull Li Peng to come again, if the water is pulled up, you will be ready to leave, you really come and return with a bad mood.

At this moment, a voice sounded in the crowd: "Two of you are short of people?" Do you want to bring me one? It just so happens that I want to join the mercenary group too, and this young lady you also look a little pleasing to the eye."

Ruoshui: What the hell is it that is a little pleasing to the eye, can't you just say that it is pleasing to the eye, there is a little bit of ......, it sounds so reluctant.

Ruoshui was still complaining in his heart, so the man walked towards Ruoshui leisurely.

When he got closer to Ruoshui, he found that this person actually exuded a strong smell of blood!
