Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 119: New District Hunting Squad

“Jiaming do you hear that? The gunshots.”

The young man hiding behind an abandoned cleaning car listened in and said to the partner beside him.

Jiaming nodded his head. He heard the gunshot too.

“Did people from the base come out to hunt?”

The person who spoke asked. He looked at the zombies who had gotten close to this place but were now drawn away from the gunshot.

A level one demon crystal could exchange for 2.5 kilograms of rice in the new district base.

“Not sure but it shouldn’t be.” Jiaming shook his head and saw the zombies get further away so he slowly relaxed his body. He placed his shovel back into his waist. After confirming that there was no more dangers, he sat down.

“You know the situation in the base. Bullets are so important and they are all in the hands of the gun unit and Director Wang, they definitely won’t use them to kill zombies. Also Da Ming, weren’t you in the army? Can’t you hear something special about the gunshot?”

When Da Ming heard that, he really felt that the gunshot was special and it was really crisp.

“It is good that we have a gun, it makes it easier to kill zombies. A few more days and we can buy potions and become evolved. When the time comes, we will be able to roam the world…”

“Wake up!”

Jiaming interrupted Da Ming’s dream, “An evolution potion is 100 level one crystals now so we have to kill a hundred zombies. We worked so hard for so many days and how many did we kill? Only ten and we nearly died. Moreover, guns aren’t good for small scale battles anymore and we would draw unknown dangers. Blades, swords, arrows and bows are the better items.”

Da Ming sighed, “Things would be good if we can spin the gachapon. Maybe we can get a potion in our first spin.”

Jia Ming rolled his eyes at Da Ming, “Spin it when you want? Then how will others control you?”

The two of them wanted to continue but the gunshots spread once more and it sounded like it was getting more and more intense.

They looked at one another and Jia Ming was anxious, “Isn’t that side the territory of that weird guy with many pigs?”

“Like…”

“Take a look?”

“Should we not? I heard that the weird person let his pigs eat humans. The people at the base talked to him and he ignored them. What if we get eaten?”

“But what if we gain something?”

The two of them were tempted and decided to take a look.

“Commander Meng, do we continue forwards?”

A thirty year old man took out a crumpled cigarette and took out a stick to pass it to this tanned young man.

Usually, this Commander Meng wouldn’t take it. He would say that the brand was not good and it was cheap. He would also say that it was too crumpled so it disgusted him.

But things were different now. Although only a week passed but the world was changing too quickly. Apart from the base, the other areas all had human eating monsters. If they weren’t careful then they would die. Food and water were a serious shortage, not to mention things like alcohol and cigarettes that could reduce pressure and fear, they were far more valuable than rice and noodles.

If Ye Zhongming was here, he would tell them that these things would only get more and more expensive. Especially those produced before the apocalypse, those were the most expensive ones.

.

Food prices in the new district base was rising, past money was not trash paper and no one wanted to even pick it up from the floor. The more important goods were weapons and crystals. Only those two things could be exchanged for food and water, even potions.

As for beer and cigarettes, the new district base didn’t have many. After these few days of consumption, their prices increased too. Although it was not as much as when Ye Zhongming revived, it was still expensive.

People were just so weird, they couldn’t even eat food but they were still willing to spend money on this.

Outside of the base were zombies and monsters so usually no one would dare to come out. Only soldiers and bold commoners would head out to hunt. Jia Ming and Da Ming were the latter and this small squad was the former.

“Qin Ke, don’t call me commander, we are all in the base and are trying to survive.”

Meng Fang took the cigarette and took in a deep breath. He felt the smoke spreading in his body and he closed his eyes in enjoyment.

Only at that moment, he could forget where he was, he forgot the fact that he could die at any moment.

“Then don’t call me Qin Ke, I am Qin Yu.” Qin Yu looked at the rifle beside Meng Fang and he craved it.

Things were great if he had his own gun. Qin Yu sighed.

With guns, one would have crystals. With crystals, one could evolve and live well. One would also have power in the new district.

Qin Yu’s head felt hot when he thought about the status and benefits that those evolved had.

“Commander, we have collected most things, but…” A guy in dirty army uniform ran over and said softly, “Zombies and monsters entered and there aren’t many things that can be eaten. There is only a bag of rice, some bean oil and also some noodles.”

Meng Fang’s expression was a little bad. He brought people out of the dirty water pipes to avoid the zombies around and even lost two lives when they faced mutated rats. They spent so much effort fighting zombies for half an hour, losing a few before occupying this small shop. They only got one bag of rice?

As for oil… Without dishes what is the point of that?

Qin Yu was in despair too. He spent a huge price to get a chance to head out with this hunting squad. He wanted to benefit but now it seemed like his wishes were about to fail.

“At least we got ten crystals…” That soldier said but he knew that he was speaking nonsense. These weren’t their own and they had to hand it over. It would be good if they could even keep two of them.

If they didn’t submit it, their loved ones in the district would be in trouble. They also would not be able to restock on bullets.

Meng Fang looked forwards. Qin Yu asked if he wanted to continue and he thought that it was a dumb question. But now, if they didn’t head to the weird man’s farm, this hunt would be a loss.

Right when he was hesitating, he heard gunshots from the distance. He opened his eyes for a few seconds and waved, “Let’s go and take a look!”

Liang Chuyin jumped at a good time. Gu Pan’s hoard was right in her attack range.

Shadow Dance was activated and the whips landed on the bodies of the mutated boars.

At the same time, Liang Chuyin absorbed a demon crystal.

For this operation, Ye Zhongming passed the green necklace to her. Beginner Meditation Exchange was activated, turning the crystal’s energy into mental energy which entered her body to ensure that she would be able to use two job skills without falling unconscious.

She was courageous and landed in the pig hoard.
