Chapter 49: Mutant Zombies

After a tiring day, Meng Ying fell asleep as soon as she put on the pillow, and the helpless businessman could only gently cover her sister with a quilt, and then after a boring circle around the room, she also fell asleep early.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, the merchant came to the task hall that Luo Yuan said alone, even though it was only six o'clock in the morning, and the front of the wall with the mission notice was already full of people.

"Why are there so many people here, and everyone doesn't sleep at night?" The merchant casually pulled a man in his thirties and asked.

The man felt a tugging force, and the scolding and swear words had reached the mouth of his throat.

However, when he found that he couldn't break free from the control of the merchant with his own strength, he suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and explained with a smile.

"You're new, aren't you?" Although it was a question, the man's tone had already affirmed his words.

"Well, I just came here yesterday." The merchant nodded indifferently, and then asked, "There are so many tasks on the wall, and I heard that they are updated every day, so don't you need to do it so early." ”

He himself only came early this time because it was the first time, but he didn't expect it to be a little late.

"Then it's no wonder......" The man deliberately flattered, proudly selling his "knowledge", "Although the tasks are updated every day, and because of the creation of the base, there are a lot of tasks, so don't worry about no tasks." ”

"But what?" The businessman said in a witty way.

"But there aren't so many good tasks......" Luo Yuandao, who didn't know when he approached the merchant here.

"Miss Luo!" The man exclaimed, his trembling legs looking scared of this woman, who was nothing great in the eyes of the merchant.

"It's none of your business here, hurry up and find a task that suits you, if it's late, it's not going to be easy today......" Luo Yuan waved his hand to the middle-aged man.

"Yes!" The man's face changed drastically, and then he turned around and flew away, not looking at the merchant again from beginning to end, as if he had long forgotten that there was such a person just now.

"What the hell is going on?" Looking at the man who was acting strangely, the merchant asked suspiciously.

"Although we seem to have a lot of tasks here, in fact, because we haven't figured out the outside environment yet, and we don't have many effective ways to deal with zombies, there are not many things we can actually do." Luo Yuan said.

"Everyone has to do the same thing, so what's there to fight about?" The merchant asked suspiciously, "And it looks like the people haven't arrived?" We can't just have a few dozen people in our base, right? ”

"Of course not, everyone here is going to take the task, as for the rest of the people, just do the prescribed work in the factory." The tone was full of disdain and disdain.

Obviously, there is no good impression on those who are not willing to work internally because they are afraid of danger, or the vulnerable people who are not physically fit for combat.

"Although most of them are more or less routine tasks, that is, patrolling the surroundings, or searching for general supplies around, which is very boring and not very rewarding, but at the same time there are certain dangers." Luo Yuan explained.

"After all, for ordinary people, even zombies without mutation are not something they can easily deal with." Luo Yuan said disdainfully.

"That is, have mutated zombies begun to appear now...... 'Shang Shi heard unexpected news from Luo Yuan's words, although from the experience gained from various apocalyptic works in his previous life, the appearance of mutated zombies, even animal and plant zombies, was expected, the only thing he didn't expect was that it would appear so soon.

"It's only been more than two months...... ' The merchant suddenly thought of a possibility, and the more he thought about it, the more ugly his face became.

'The zombie outbreak definitely didn't start two months ago! These damn bureaucrats are hiding such an important truth! The merchant thought to himself through gritted teeth.

And at the same time, the merchant also thought of the second zombie he encountered on the first day, which was obviously different from the wisdom of the same kind.

'Should have thought of it a long time ago!' ’

Unaware of the thoughts in the mind of the merchant master, Luo Yuan continued: "And more importantly, these ordinary routine tasks are almost useless for the acquisition of contribution degrees, and sometimes it is even difficult to maintain even the basic food and clothing for a day. ”

After a pause, he continued: "After all, although we have plenty of food, we can't consume precious meat, protein and vegetables to waste by useless guys. ”

The coldness of the high above made the merchant feel unhappy for a while.

"So many times, these compatriots who are willing to participate in the battle will take on more than one task to avoid the situation of not being paid enough." Luo Yuan concluded.

"Wanting to get enough insurance in a mission that is more than the total number of people but not two or three times as many is an important thing for them to fight for every morning."

"Then if I don't get enough tasks, does it mean that I can't get enough supplies and food?!" The merchant said with a dangerous look in his eyes, and his sharp gaze made Luo Yuan's heart tremble.

"Of course ......not," Luo Yuan smiled awkwardly, "As for us cadres, there will be specific tasks entrusted to us to complete. ”

"What type of tasks are they?" The merchant asked.

"Naturally, it is a task that suits each of us' respective abilities, for example, I have almost only one task, which is to be responsible for recruiting new companions."

The companions mentioned here naturally do not refer to the guys who are gathered around the mission bulletin board, let alone those ordinary stronghold members who are not even qualified to come here.

"So what is my mission today?" The merchant stretched out his hand to Luo Yuan and asked, "You came and talked to me for so long, you didn't bring anything with you, did you......?"

"Giggle...... Luo Yuanjiao laughed a few times, then took out a piece of paper that was folded into small pieces from his pocket and said, "This is your task today, looking forward to your performance......"

"Hunt the zombies gathered in the east department store, try to clean up all the zombies, and provide a safer environment for the follow-up logistics troops to collect supplies."

This is the content of the task written on the paper, and just by looking at it, the merchant throws the paper aside, moves his joints, and leaves the place in an instant.

Ordinary zombies are naturally not the opponents of merchants, and merchants who are proficient in using several forms are no longer rookies who still wanted to rely on Beretta at the beginning.

Although proficient marksmanship is still his last hole card, in the face of these ordinary zombies, it makes the merchant feel that he has not touched a gun for a long time.

Well, in fact he really hasn't touched it for a long time.
