The Rongzhen gathering place is actually not large, only one kilometer deep, and it is built on the slope of the mountain, before the disaster, it is a remote and poor country, the total population is only a few thousand, and most of them have gone to Yucheng to work.

After the disaster, it became a nest, and it was definitely not easy to get the right to live in the gathering place, after all, in the gathering place, you may be as hungry as outside, but at least you have a little security guarantee, and you will not worry about being bitten by a tingly haired mouse when you are asleep at night.

Therefore, there are many people who want to enter the gathering place of Rong Town, and some people can't enter, so they simply set up camp outside the gathering place, but there is also a thriving color.

It's just that Wu Ming knows very well that there is no large-scale attack by monsters, and if there is, this Rongzhen gathering place is likely to be directly wiped out.

But these have little to do with Wu Ming, he used a batch of meat in exchange for a temporary residence in the gathering place at the moment, and the right of residence here is simple to put it bluntly, just like paying rent, you can exchange it for gold and food, and you can only continue to live if you can afford it, if you can't pay it, then I'm sorry, you can only move out.

In a room that could barely shelter from the wind and rain, Wu Ming lay on the tattered hard bed, thinking about his future plans.

The owner of the house got three prickly mice from Wu Ming, and the price was to rent the house to Wu Ming for three days, and he could live in the future, the same as one prickly mouse a day.

didn't hear the news of Li Xia and Liu Bin, although Wu Ming was a little disappointed, he also knew that some things were not what he wanted.

This is the new shijie, not the era when you wanted to talk for two hours directly on your mobile phone alone, Wu Ming had to face the reality, Li Xia and Liu Bin He could only continue to look for it.

And another reality that Wu Ming must face is that if he wants to continue to survive and maintain his current advantages, he must continue to become stronger.

Wu Ming didn't have a clue about the three fixed grid cards in the ghost card album, and he didn't know when he could raise all three cards. However, Wu Ming recalled a very important piece of information, that is, about the 'upgrade card'.

As long as you get the upgrade card, the first-level awakened person can upgrade the level to become a second-level awakener, and you can create and use second-level cards.

This is a qualitative leap, and it is undoubtedly the most important prop for the Awakened. And if you can upgrade the level earlier, you can naturally get the right to use the second-level card earlier.

Upgrade cards also fell from the sky, but the number was very small, Wu Ming, who had the memory of the previous life, remembered very well that the first batch of upgrade cards came from six months after the disaster.

After that, a batch will fall every month, and every time the upgrade card falls, it will trigger a crazy scramble for the awakened, and that kind of scramble is not an exaggeration to describe as tragic.

In the previous life, Wu Ming only bought one from others with the accumulated Yuan Qi card two years after the disaster, and did not actually participate in the competition.

Speaking of which, Wu Ming in the previous life was very miserable, and he simply didn't have enough cards to deal with this kind of competition.

"If you calculate the time, it's less than a month before the disaster is six months away!" Wu Ming muttered to himself.

In the previous life, Wu Ming was not active in this area after leaving Yucheng, but it didn't mean that he hadn't heard of the Rongzhen Gathering Place, he remembered that one of the first batch of upgrade cards fell to the ground, which was near the Rongzhen Gathering Place.

"In that case, then I'll stay here for an extra month, and then leave here and go to the Lion City Gathering Place when I get the upgrade card!"

The Lion City Gathering Place is the largest gathering place within a radius of hundreds of miles, where Wu Ming was active in the previous life, with a population of at least more than 200,000, and it is 200 kilometers away from the Rong Town Gathering Area.

Wu Ming thought as he fell asleep grogily. And beside Wu Ming's bed, the petrified form of Eminem was lying there, it had now become Wu Ming's sentinel, and if there was any disturbance, it could be found as soon as possible.

Nothing was said all night.

For the rest of the time, Wu Ming temporarily stayed in this gathering place in Rong Town, waiting for the fall of the first wave of upgrade cards a month later.

Every day, Wu Ming would leave the gathering place to go out to hunt some stinging mice, some of which would pay rent and pay to the gathering place, and some of which he would sell to butcher shops in exchange for some supplies.

Boss Jiang obviously knew about Wu Ming's existence, and because he had many butcher shops, and even some previous butcher shops such as Tian's butcher shop had been included in his banner, so Wu Ming chose to sell it only to Boss Jiang's shop.

So there is such a scene every day.

While many people lined up in the cold wind, and on the side of the queue waiting for inspection and weighing of rat meat, Wu Ming was alone, respectfully welcomed into the shop by the butcher's guys, making tea and pouring water, and often buying his rat meat at twice the price of the others.

Naturally, some people expressed their dissatisfaction with this unfairness, but when Boss Jiang met Wu Ming by chance one day in the store, and then showed a respectful look, those people never expressed any dissatisfaction.

A person who can make Boss Jiang so respectful is naturally not something they can provoke.

Because of Boss Jiang's relationship, Wu Ming didn't dare to mess with Wu Ming in the gathering place of Rong Town, and Boss Jin was also unexpectedly not to trouble Wu Ming, in this regard, Jiang Chi was very pity, and secretly said that if Boss Jin sent someone to deal with Wu Ming, it would be the best, so that Boss Jin would inevitably be killed by Wu Ming, and then he would be able to dominate the gathering place of Rong Town and call for Mayor Wei.

Of course, he only dared to think about this kind of thought.

In the past few days, Boss Jin seems to have fallen silent, there is no big move, Jiang Chi can only be in a hurry, and there is nothing he can do.

Time passed slowly, ten days passed, and when Wu Ming was about to leave the gathering place in that dilapidated car as usual that day, suddenly a large number of armed people appeared at the entrance of the gathering place, these were the defenders of the gathering place, subordinate to Mayor Wei.

All the people had grim expressions, and there were many heavily armed people rushing in that direction, and Wu Ming knew that something big must have happened.

Soon, a truck drove into the gathering place under the escort of everyone, and there was something in the back of the truck, which was covered with a layer of oilcloth, and the blood stains that seeped from it indicated that it was some kind of monster.

The truck was guarded by a large number of armed men, a picture of a jiashi that idlers were not allowed to approach.

Seeing this, Wu Ming was naturally very curious, wanting to know what was pulling on it, even if it was a monster, there was no need to be so nervous.

After thinking about it, Wu Ming turned around and walked into a weapons shop on the side of the road.

If you want to say that the most well-informed person in Rong Town, Boss Jiang is undoubtedly one, and this weapon shop also belongs to Boss Jiang.

Wu Ming walked in directly, there is no control over weapons in the new shijie, so there are all the weapons in this weapon shop, pistols, rifles, and submachine guns are neatly placed on the wooden shelves, and there are golden bullets next to them, of course, all the weapons are old goods, and they are very badly worn, and many of those bullets are 'copy bullets'.

There are also some homemade firearms, and on the other side are all kinds of knives, machetes and bayonets are also sharpened one by one.

No matter which gathering place, the butcher shop and the weapon shop are the most popular, after all, both are related to survival, and they must not be sloppy, so the business in this shop is excellent. When Wu Ming came in, many people were choosing weapons, but Boss Jiang had ordered it, so the guys here basically recognized Wu Ming, and immediately put down their business and walked over attentively.

Wu Ming asked this guy to pass a message to Jiang Chi, the content was very simple, that is, he wanted to know what was pulled in the truck, Wu Ming believed that Boss Jiang would definitely be able to do this little thing.

Just as Wu Ming was about to leave, the guy hurriedly stopped Wu Ming and said with a stammering face: "Boss Wu, don't leave yet, Boss Jiang has ordered, I have recently got some military bullets in stock, brand new, and they haven't been opened yet." Boss Jiang said that if you come, I will give you 300 rounds! ”

As he spoke, the lighter came with a backpack containing six packs of ammunition wrapped in brown paper, each with fifty rounds. Wu Ming took a brief look and knew that the fineness of these bullets was absolutely fine, and the quality was very good, much better than the reloading bullets he had used in the past few days, and the possibility of dud bullets was extremely small.

Thinking of this, Wu Ming secretly said that Jiang Chi is really good at doing things, during this time, the purchase price of his rat meat is obviously higher than others, and this sends himself a bullet, Wu Ming is not afraid of others treating him badly, he is afraid that others will be good to him, and this thing is very important in Wu Ming's eyes.

"Tell Jiang Chi and say that I owe him a favor!" Wu Ming smiled, then walked out, got into the tattered car he had exchanged for fifteen prickly mice, started it, and drove out of the gathering place.
