Chapter 570: Chapter 570 Current Situation of F City Base Chapter 570: Chapter 570 Current Situation of F City Base anwhile, Lu Hao had also co back from the other side of the street corner, and when he saw that a crowd had gathered around the spot where Su Jin and Lu Guanhai were standing—with two people in the middle arguing about sothing—he quickened his pace.
The middle-aged man and the man with the buzz cut were still blaming each other, but Su Jin had also gleaned so information about the base from their conversation.
“What’s happened?”
Lu Hao ca over with a frown, and seeing that the few people were just standing on the side of the road without any serious trouble, he finally felt relieved.
Lu Guanhai explained the situation to Lu Hao, in summary, the middle-aged man seed to be standing up for them.
“It’s like this, F City Base stopped circulating Ordinary Crystal Cores two months ago, whether for eating or trading goods, everything is done with Mutated Crystal Nuclei, and currently, there are no private shops or trading places in the base, survivors can only trade with the official base facilities.”
Lu Hao explained to the group in a low voice.
So Ordinary Crystal Cores are completely useless in F City Base?
No wonder the middle-aged man stepped forward to warn them—he was indeed a kind-hearted person.
At this ti, the surrounding crowd also began to murmur and discuss among themselves, and seeing that he was at a disadvantage, the man with the buzz cut spat and turned away running.
“Thank you.”
Su Jin said to the middle-aged man.
“Don’t ntion it. My na is Wu Xingye. I just happened to pass by; that Lai Zitou regularly deceives newcors. So people who just entered the base didn’t know that Ordinary Crystal Cores couldn’t be used here and exchanged a lot with him only to find they couldn’t even buy a al with those cores. Frustrating, isn’t it?”
Wu Xingye’s manner, full of a sense of justice, made Lu Guanhai rather fond of him.
“Brother, is trading goods not allowed here in the base? We’re new here and haven’t found a single shop even after walking around for half a day,”
Lu Guanhai asked.
Wu Xingye looked at Lu Guanhai as if he was seeing sothing novel: “Of course trading is free, but who has goods to sell now? Only the base has so goods left, but they can only be traded with Mutated Crystal Nuclei.”
Su Jin was beginning to understand, but this base was indeed novel, accepting only Mutated Crystal Nuclei.
That ant they could absolutely sell goods here.
“What do you think if we have friends who want to co here to sell goods?”
Lu Hao simply put it bluntly. He had always been good at judging people, and this Wu Xingye did not seem like a sly or slippery person.
After hearing this, a glint of sharpness imdiately flashed in Wu Xingye’s usually composed eyes.
“Your friend has goods to sell?”
Wu Xingye approached quietly and asked.
Seeing Lu Hao nod, Wu Xingye promptly invited them to his team to discuss the matter in detail.
“I won’t hide it from you; our True Martial Sect is considered one of the largest Special Ability User teams in this base. If your friend has goods to sell, I would like him to sell to us first, price is no issue.”
Wu Xingye wanted to show his sincerity, but at this mont, the greatest sincerity he could offer was to bluntly express his wishes like this.
Seeing the group hesitate, he thought they were worried about safety and was about to offer further assurances when Lu Hao surprisingly agreed outright.
“Refreshing, refreshing, hahaha, I’ve made a friend!”
Wu Xingye had not seen people as decisive as the few before him in a long ti, which was why he had wanted to offer his help just then.
Su Jin and her companions had not expected that Wu Xingye’s team would consist of so many mbers and fully occupy a corner of the base, dominating both sides of the road, all under the territory of the “True Martial Sect” that Wu Xingye ntioned.
“Brother Wu, how many mbers do you have here?”
Lu Guanhai couldn’t help but ask.
“Not too many, just six or seven hundred,”
Wu Xingye said as he walked along, being greeted by people from ti to ti along the way, which suggested that he must also be a senior figure in this group.
It was only after Wu Xingye entered a courtyard that several young people could be seen practicing Huaxia Kung Fu one-on-one, looking very professional.
“If Yifan saw this, he would definitely want to co and spar again,”
Lu Guanhai comnted.
Upon seeing Wu Xingye enter, the young practitioners stopped and respectfully called out “Teacher.”
“Hahaha, these are the students who co to learn Kung Fu from in our group, let’s go inside,”
Wu Xingye introduced to the three of them.
The decor inside the main hall of the courtyard was also very simple, with a wall even adorned with an array of weapons such as swords, spears, and staves, giving off the vibe of a martial arts family.
“Oh, Teacher Wu, are these guests?”
A young woman holding a cloth walked in and asked in surprise.
“Yes, guests, go make so tea,”
“You got it!”
The young woman looked delighted, giving Su Jin and her companions a sweet smile before running off.
Through their conversation with Wu Xingye, the trio also learned a lot about the “True Martial Sect.”
The True Martial Sect had been founded by Wu Xingye himself before the apocalypse. The current location was originally the Martial Arts Hall of the True Martial Sect, but after the devastation of the apocalypse, many disciples turned into zombies or were tragically killed by them. Fortunately, so disciples survived, and in the post-apocalyptic base, the True Martial Sect persevered.
Wu Xingye, having no children, had taken in many Special Ability Users and ordinary people who had nowhere else to go during the apocalypse, and gradually, under the leadership of a few of his top disciples, the True Martial Sect started to grow stronger and was even feared by the current Base Leader.
However, the populous True Martial Sect continuously faced one major problem: the shortage of supplies.
Now, to purchase supplies within the base, it was necessary to use Mutated Crystal Nuclei, which might not seem like a big deal at first, but it directly affected the overall strength and number of Special Ability Users in the base.
At that mont, the young woman who had left earlier returned with a tray, pouring a full cup of hot tea for each of Su Jin’s party.
“Without Mutated Crystal Nuclei to aid in advancent and absorption, the Special Ability Levels of Special Ability Users have all stagnated, but the levels of zombies outside the base keep rising. It’s a vicious cycle. Who knows why that Liu guy ca up with such an absurd rule. And the key issue is, with so many Mutated Crystal Nuclei he’s hoarding, we haven’t seen him cultivate even one or two experts within the base,”
Wu Xingye said as he drank a sip of water, steadying his voice that grew increasingly angry as he spoke.
But with supplies in the hands of Liu Jianyuan, they could only follow the rules, exchanging high amounts of Mutated Crystal Nuclei for them.
Nowadays, his disciples had to go out with their mbers daily to hunt for Mutated Crystal Nuclei, which were almost entirely exchanged for supplies.
These days they were still managing to get by. The period during the blizzard was the hardest ti for them, as without Mutated Crystal Nuclei, many people in the base chose to commit suicide out of despair. People in the True Martial Sect continuously fell ill and died. If it weren’t for a few steady disciples holding him back, he would have been ready to rob the base of its resources.
