Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Security Bureau Outpost

The Security Bureau probably has more than one such temporary base, and each base is equipped with an administrator. This seems to be a mechanism temporarily set up.

Su Changxing nodded and said, “So you’re all members of the Security Bureau.”

Lu Yu, walking in front, responded, “That’s right, in principle, we don’t take in others, but we make exceptions for special situations.”

The group followed Lu Yu inside. The space here wasn’t large; it seemed to be a place where a gold store stored valuable items, discovered and used as a base by the Security Bureau.

Zhang Daxi followed silently at the back. In the real world, they always avoided police and official organizations, and now they felt like lambs entering a tiger’s den.

Su Changxing looked around and exclaimed, “This is indeed a good place to hide, very secluded.”

The young man carrying the man in gray clothes boastfully said, “Of course, I was the one who discovered this place first.”

Chen Ling glanced at him and said indifferently, “At that time, you just wanted to see if the gold store had any hidden gold.”

The young man squinted, looking earnest, “As agreed, half of this gold is mine, and when we return to the real world, I’ll take it all back.”

Su Changxing was stunned; he didn’t expect someone here to be so obsessed with money that they planned to take the gold back despite the circumstances, rather than focusing on survival.

Chen Ling seemed accustomed to the young man’s behavior and said calmly, “As long as you can take it back, it’s all yours. The organization won’t exploit personal gains of members.”

You could see the scent of money in the young man’s eyes, shining brightly even in this dim space.

Su Changxing’s mouth twitched as he secretly complained that in this altered world, gold wasn’t important anymore, and even if they returned to the real world, gold would probably depreciate significantly.

If the Doomsday Game continued, points would become the hardest currency. So, instead of gathering gold, it would be better to earn more points.

However, Su Changxing didn’t say much. Perhaps the young man had a strong obsession with gold, like wanting to make a golden toilet or something.

Lu Yu led the group to a larger room inside. There were three or four people resting against the wall, all with significant injuries; the air was stuffy, and no one spoke.

Chen Ling’s expression shifted slightly, looking at one of them and asked, “Huang Jixiang, where’s your squad?”

A young man with bandages around his chest, his face with noticeable scratches and bloodshot eyes, looking exhausted, apparently not having slept for a long time.

He sprawled on the ground, speaking in a strong Sichuan dialect, “Squad Leader Chen, they’re all dead. I’m the only one left. We encountered the Undead Tide and were blocked by the Hunters.”

Chen Ling was silent for a moment, then said with a softer tone, “One of our team is injured now. You join our squad.”

Huang Jixiang replied with some indignation, “No problem. I really don’t know what to do right now. I just want to take those people down.”

At this moment, a woman with a white coat, thin as a skeleton, came in from outside, looking at the two people lying on the ground.

Su Changxing was a bit surprised. The woman was so thin, looking like she hadn’t eaten in a long time, like an African refugee or someone with anorexia. Judging by her outfit, she should be Dr. Wu.

She glanced around, then looked at Chen Ling, her voice cold as she asked, “Is Liu Jiusheng dead?”

Without waiting for Chen Ling’s reply, she talked to herself, “Not coming back must mean he’s dead. You’re an incompetent Squad Leader. You’re alive, and he’s dead.”

Her tone had no regret or any other emotion, as if stating a fact.

Liu Jiusheng should have been the Security Bureau member who died earlier.

Chen Ling leaned against the wall and said blandly, “You should check their injuries first.”

Zhang Daxi pointed at Xu Chu’s Sweat on the ground and said, “He should be fine, just sleeping.”

Xu Chu’s Sweat was breathing evenly, looking asleep.

The short-haired young man in a leather jacket distinctly remembered that this bald man had been shot with two arrows, surprised, “Is he a healing-type Superpower User? He’s entirely recovered, tsk tsk.”

Zhang Daxi was a bit stunned, unsure, “Probably, I guess.”

He wasn’t sure of Xu Chu’s Sweat’s situation either, but it seemed that after using that bottle of Blood Alcohol, he gained the Immortal ability.

The young man looked thoughtful and added, “Awakening the Superpower recently? Seems strong. Let me introduce myself; I’m Sun Xiaolin.”

Dr. Wu brushed aside her bangs, checked the injuries of the gray-clothed man, and said, “Severely injured, but can be saved.”

Chen Ling raised his head and asked with concern, “Is your body okay? If not, stabilize his injuries with medication first.”

Dr. Wu shook her head, “There’s no medication left. The medicines became extremely scarce hours ago… I can manage, no problem.”

When there are phones, items circulate, there’s no shortage of medicines; once there’s a shortage, it becomes severe.

Sun Xiaolin snorted, “Those guys must have meds, just won’t give them to us.”

No one responded.

Dr. Wu placed her hand on the gray-clothed man’s chest. Immediately, some green glowing particles appeared in her palm, gradually converging into the man’s body.

You could see some tiny wounds on the man’s body healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This status lasted for only about half a minute before stopping. The injuries on the gray-clothed man didn’t completely heal, but his face turned a bit rosy.

Sun Xiaolin removed his clothes, sprinkled some white-gray medication powder, and skillfully applied bandages. Clearly, this wasn’t his first time doing this.

“Cough cough~”

Dr. Wu coughed a couple of times, her face paler, stood up and said, “I’m going to rest, call me if you need anything.”

After she left, the room fell silent again.

Lu Yu walked over with some biscuits, saying, “We still have enough supplies here, eat something to replenish your energy.”

“No need, I brought my own food.”

Su Changxing refused, taking out a pack of Oreo and started eating on his own.

Sun Xiaolin looked at the Oreo in Su Changxing’s hand and then at the dry biscuits in his own. Instantly he felt tasteless, but didn’t want to ask Su Changxing.

Chen Ling looked around at the people and said:

“Now, our best option is to leave this area by tomorrow morning… it’s very dangerous here now.”

Su Changxing leaned against the wall, eating Oreo, raised his eyebrows, and said, “Other places are probably the same, right.”
