Chapter 151: Fighting Monsters, Conversation

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Those monsters shouldn’t have noticed us. Let’s quietly walk around them,” seeing that the ugly creatures outside the iron gate did not seem to notice them, the young man turned to Zhou Chen and said in a low voice.

“You should take a detour. I want to fight them,” Zhou Chen did not listen to his suggestion and directly walked lightly towards the monsters.

“Why? You are just taking unnecessary risks!” the young man immediately frowned and sounded displeased.

“I’m used to using monsters to test my luck. Hurry up and retreat, or you’ll be implicated as well.” Zhou Chen was unmoved. The reason why he wanted to kill the monsters was to obtain possible passive skills. As long as the monsters he encountered were not too strong or he had killed many times, he would not let them go.

Under the camouflage youth’s puzzled gaze, Zhou Chen ran towards the monsters. He arrived near them in three to four seconds and punched out from some distance away.

Bang!

The head of an ugly dog monster that was turning to look at Zhou Chen exploded, along with half of its body.

[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the mutant dog’s passive skill “Pathogen Infection III, Pathogen Resistance III, Apocalyptic Resistance III”. Do you want to absorb them?]

[Pathogen Infection III

Type: High bronze passive skill

Creatures that are scratched or bitten by you will be infected with various bronze-ranked pathogens.]

[Pathogenic Resistance III

Type: High bronze passive skill

You are immune to bronze-ranked pathogen infections, and you have a certain resistance to higher-ranked pathogen infections.]

[Apocalyptic Resistance III

Type: High bronze passive skill

Your body is remodeled by the apocalyptic pollution, you are immune to mild and moderate apocalyptic pollution. You can resist severe apocalyptic pollution for a period of time.]

While the system announced the details of the passive skills, Zhou Chen did not idle. He continued to kill the canine monsters that charged at him, and killed those further away with the Eight Desolates True Energy. At the same time, he activated the Shield passive skill, preventing some disgusting remains of the monsters from flying onto him.

“Pathogen Resistance III, Apocalyptic Resistance III.”

After quickly killing these disgusting monsters, Zhou Chen chose to absorb two of the passive skills and abandoned the other one.

Because he looked down on this sort of despicable method. As a martial artist, he did not want to become a source of the pathogen.

After feeling his body absorb a new mysterious power, Zhou Chen turned around and looked back. He saw that the young man in camouflage clothes was still not far away. He was standing behind a broken wall and looking over.

“You will attract more monsters like this,” the young man said to Zhou Chen when Zhou Chen approached him.

“It’s okay, we just need to quickly leave this place,” Zhou Chen replied calmly.

The young man quickly chose a direction to move towards.

“Are you sure about this direction?” Zhou Chen asked because he felt that they might not necessarily reach the safe area in that direction.

“My compass shows that there are the fewest number of monsters in this direction. The safe area is most likely here,” the young man explained.

“Alright, let’s speed up,” Zhou Chen nodded. He wanted to leave this polluted land as soon as possible.

For the next hour, they walked quickly in the wasteland. They encountered some monsters along the way. Most of them were killed by Zhou Chen, and a small number were shot to death by the young man.

After a while, they saw people driving off-road vehicles passing through the wasteland. The two of them called for them in the local language, but the other party did not pay attention to them. They accelerated and drove away.

“Let’s follow them.”

After discovering natives, the two of them immediately felt confident and headed in the direction of the natives.

While following the natives, they conversed.

“What was that attack you used when killing monsters? Items? Skills? Energy skills?” The young man was interested in Zhou Chen’s remote attack method.

“It’s a special skill. It was difficult to obtain it,” Zhou Chen immediately replied.

“By the way, you said your name is Li Guofu. Do you know Li Guoqiang?” Zhou Chen remembered that the director of the Dragon Country Survivor Administration was called Li Guoqiang. His name was very similar to this person’s.

“Li Guoqiang is my big brother,” the young man replied bluntly. “Are you interested in joining the Administration? Your strength is not bad. We lack talent like you.”

“Let’s talk about this in the future…” Zhou Chen was a little speechless. He did not really want to join any organization.

“Hehe, you people just don’t believe in the organization. Actually, the organization will not harm you. I believe that you will understand this one day,” the young man smiled at Zhou Chen’s rejection.

“What do you think of this Survival mission?” He then asked Zhou Chen the key question.

“I will look for a place to live first! If I have the energy, I’ll make a shelter to increase the rewards. This Survival mission’s duration is really long, so I have to choose a good place.”

This Survival mission was a year long and had a side mission to establish a shelter.

“Hmm…” The young man nodded. “My thoughts are the same as yours, but I’ll try to explore this world. I might need your help when the time comes. This world should be on the science and technology side. The Administration attaches great importance to research and development of such worlds. If you discover or obtain some technological items that you don’t want, you can tell me. I’ll hand them over for you. At that time, you can obtain many rewards from the country,” the young man emphasized that the Dragon Country currently had a lot of demand for these technological items, and the rewards were also very good.

“Alright, I understand,” Zhou Chen nodded. As a Survivor belonging to the government, this person had a huge responsibility on him. It was very normal for him to try to explore such a world. Moreover, his attitude was not aggressive. He only asked Zhou Chen to give him things that he did not need and did not say anything about handing them all over.

‘Technology world… I feel that it has a limited meaning to me.’ Zhou Chen had needs for technological items. For example, it was always good to have a few firearms. However, he knew that his main focus was on obtaining passive skills, martial arts, and cultivating in the Card Creator class. If these things developed well, not only would they not lose to science and technology, they would also completely belong to him.

“There seems to be a residential area ahead,” at this moment, the young man took out binoculars and observed the distance. “The area is surrounded by an iron fence, and there are two armed guards at the gate.. It’s best if we don’t go there rashly.”
