Chapter 40: Mission Rewards
On the other side of the screen, the girl's face visibly turned angry.
"This survivor, please be serious, I need to talk to you about something important on behalf of the Consortium."
Erica's face returned to seriousness.
She no longer cared about how Xia Lu knew she had a pet dog.
Xia Lu didn't want to really mess with this little beauty, and he didn't think that the leader of their base was too serious and refused to cooperate.
"I don't need to introduce myself, I already know a lot about the consortium."
Xia Lu didn't want the other party to waste too much time on introducing himself.
Erica was visibly stunned.
"You've heard of the Consortium?"
Erica couldn't help but ask, surprised.
"Not only have I heard of it, but I already have a very full understanding of the consortium, and you can just tell me what kind of tasks the consortium has provided us."
The other party knew the consortium so well, and Erica breathed a sigh of relief.
"We have detected a large number of Level 1 and 2 mutants around your northern city, as well as a large number of zombies, and we need your help to clean them up."
"The mission completion consortium will provide you with a lot of supplies, and the consortium will continue to airdrop supplies for you during the clean-up process."
Erica immediately said solemnly.
After hearing her words, Xia Lu immediately shook his head.
"No, we don't want supplies, we need energy crystals, if the consortium can provide us with 300 energy crystals per month, we will consider helping."
Erica's face changed instantly.
The other party made this kind of request, obviously already knowing the usefulness of the energy crystal.
The end times have just begun, how can he get so much information?
And the conditions proposed by the other party are too harsh, three hundred energy crystals a month, this is no longer blackmail, but money grabbing.
This survivor ...... I don't know your name yet, I hope you can understand that what you need most now is materials and not energy crystals, and we will provide them to you later, but not now. ”
"Now the consortium is still in the research stage of energy crystals, we don't know whether this substance is beneficial to people or not, I suggest ......"
Before she finished speaking, Xia Lu immediately waved her hand.
"Come on, if my guess is correct, you have already started to use energy crystals to create supernatural beings in batches, and your energy crystal technology is also under development, am I wrong?"
Erica froze when she heard this.
The consortium has not been established for a long time, and the research on energy crystals is also in the initial stage, and Xia Lu actually knows about it.
Oh my God, is this man a fortune teller?
However, she did not refute Xia Lu's words.
At this stage, the consortium is taking advantage of the fact that most people do not know the usefulness of energy crystals, purchasing a large number of energy crystals with materials, and relying on a strong scientific and technological team to conduct research on energy crystals.
At the same time, the Consortium is also creating a large number of Anomalous Beings in the hope of having the most powerful military power in the last days.
In fact, in Xia Lu's memory, the consortium relied on the rapid accumulation in the early stage to successfully establish the world's largest military force in the future.
In the past, he also turned in a lot of energy crystals in vain because he didn't understand them.
However, in this life, he won't be so stupid.
Erica's communication was interrupted for a moment, as if to report back to her superiors.
After a while, the screen sounded again, and the person had been replaced by a middle-aged man in a military uniform.
"Hello, I'm ......"
"Li Feng, commander of the Fifth Army of the Eastern Theater of the Consortium."
Before the man could speak, Xia Lu said his name accurately.
Li Feng was stunned for a moment, and soon smiled.
"I don't know who provided your information, but I want to say that the people who provided you with it are very powerful."
"Since everyone knows each other, then I won't talk nonsense, we just discussed, it's not impossible to provide you with 300 crystals a month, we need you to provide rescue missions for the consortium."
"We have obtained information, there are still many survivor strongholds in the North City, but they are all in danger, and the consortium needs your rescue."
"Secondly, there are some important people who also need your help to rescue, and the location will not be too far from your base."
"Of course, in the process, the supply of supplies to your base will be doubled, and we will also provide more rewards for each rescue mission, what do you think?"
Li Feng is an extremely capable person, there is no superfluous nonsense, and he directly starts to talk about the conditions.
Of course, Xia Lu would not refuse his words, and nodded without hesitation.
His crispness surprised Li Feng as well.
You know, in the last days, it is difficult for people to trust each other, and if the survivors are in charge of the clearance mission, they may agree to let them complete the rescue mission, and many people will hesitate.
What if it's a trap, if the mission is too difficult, and they're just sent to be cannon fodder?
There was so much skepticism in it that almost all the survivors rejected.
And today's consortium has not established enough authority to make them trust themselves.
But Xia Lu agreed without hesitation, and Li Feng had to admire such courage.
"Good boy, you are a cheerful person, if you have the opportunity, I will definitely invite you to the consortium, and we will have a good chat."
Li Feng had a smile on his face.
It's nice to talk to someone who is cheerful.
"The weapons and high-tech equipment we provide you have manuals, if you don't know anything, you can ask me, in addition, I will personally install special software for your communicator and provide you with personal bonus tasks."
After speaking, Li Feng turned off the mid-term.
Xia Lu turned around and swept his gaze over the people in the base, everyone had a different look on their faces.
"Xia Lu, our base should develop steadily now, pursue self-preservation, and complete any rescue mission, which is too dangerous."
"Yes, if they had the strength to rescue, they would have pulled it themselves a long time ago, and they didn't have the strength in the military, how could we have it?"
"I still think this should be reconsidered."
The crowd began to express their opinions.
But everyone's attitude towards the Consortium is the same, that is, extreme distrust.
Xia Lu understood their thoughts, because he himself had gone through such a stage of doubt.
Because of his suspicions, he missed many opportunities to establish friendly relations with the consortium, and in the end he could only watch the benefits being taken away by others.
"Everyone, I believe you all know me very well, and I Xia Lu never do anything that is not beneficial."
"Now people don't trust the consortium, I can understand it, but I can assure you that the consortium will be the most powerful military and scientific and technological force in the world in the future."
"As long as we can establish a good relationship with the consortium, the base will receive a steady stream of advanced technology and weapons in the future."
