Chapter 320 - Catapult Device  

There were still three and a half hours before sunset. Players from the other three factions did not receive any rewards, so they could only rely on themselves to find shelter.

After binding the faction shelter, players from the other factions could find out the specific coordinates through the system, so Fang Heng was not in a hurry to bind it.

Since the Eastern faction had found the shelter ahead of the others, they had nearly three and a half hours more development time than the rest.

“We’ve already searched the warehouse. There are still a lot of canned fruits and water left in the storage room at the back. There are benefits to having fewer players in our faction. These are enough for us to eat for three to four days.”

Yu Jie briefly explained the situation of the system shelter to everyone.

“We don’t lack food and water. What we lack the most right now are weapons.”

“We’ve almost used up all the Molotov cocktails to deal with the zombie wave. They’re very effective against zombies, but they’re very average to players. We need to hurry up and think of ways to arm the team.”

“Also, the system defense will protect us tonight. We just need to be careful of other players.”

“The possibility of other players launching an attack on the first night is not high, but we still have to do a good job of defense.”

“Later, I will have people re-check the defense of the warehouse. I will also arrange for people to take turns to guard the warehouse at night.”

“There will also be some gaps in the construction materials. Wood can be obtained by felling trees and furniture. The main thing is that we lack tools…”

As Yu Jie spoke, he spread out a map on the table.

“I’m going to send people to start from the nearest gun shop, medicine shop and hardware store.”

During special events, the damage of guns to players was reduced by 50%. However, guns were still the most effective way of attacking players in combat.

Robbing a gun store was a good choice.

“Fang Heng, what do you think?”

Everyone turned to look at Fang Heng.

“Not bad, you guys go ahead. I’ve received a special mission and I need to finish it quickly. I’ll come back to look for you guys after I finish it.”

“Special mission?” Yu Jie was stunned, and then he realized, “You mean Wendy’s mission?”

“Yes.”

“I know this mission. The mission difficulty is quite high.”

Yu Jie did not know that Fang Heng had already completed more than half of Wendy’s missions. He thought that Fang Heng had only just received the mission.

He advised, “Fang Heng, I do not recommend you to participate. This mission consumes a lot of time and energy. You need to gather the strength of the entire faction to complete it.”

“It doesn’t matter. I have plans. While the players from the other three factions are still looking for shelter, I will complete it as soon as possible.”

Yu Jie sighed in his heart.

He felt that Fang Heng was still too young.

What were three hours?

In the old region, he had gathered the strength of the entire faction and spent 30 hours just to complete the first part of the special mission.

Tier 2 was even more troublesome.

Usually, the player would leave after completing Tier 1.

Yu Jie nodded and said, “Alright then. Wendy’s mission is very complicated. You have to be mentally prepared.”

“Okay, let’s split up.”

After a simple discussion, Fang Heng and Yu Jie split up. They agreed to contact each other through survival radio if they encountered any special situations.

Fang Heng was about to drive the truck back to the city centre with Mo Jiawei when Zhou Yi and Lu Yu quickly followed.

Zhou Yi came up and whispered outside the window, “God, don’t be in a hurry to leave. There’s a special mission that I mentioned to you before.”

Fang Heng raised his eyebrows and opened the truck door.

“Let’s go. Let’s talk inside.”

Fang Heng had heard from Pei Anan that Zhou Yi had found a special mission through a special channel and was able to make a large sum of money from this special event.

“The people from the Federation were here just now. I didn’t dare to mention it.”

Only when the truck left the warehouse area did Zhou Yi chuckle.

“This is a mission that I learned from a special channel. It doesn’t come from an honest source.”

Lu Yu nudged Zhou Yi with his elbow. “Boss, let’s get down to business.”

“Oh, oh, it’s like this. I learned that there’s a super-sized modern weapons factory in Haramori City. The resources in the weapons factory are enough to equip an army of a few hundred people!”

Zhou Yi was inexplicably excited. “Most importantly, there are firearms forging blueprints and precision instruments for manufacturing guns!”

Fang Heng nodded.

This information was very useful.

However, to him, the temptation was not that great.

After the zombie team was formed, the players were no longer a threat in his eyes.

Firearms were just to improve the safety of the camp shelter.

It was like the icing on the cake.

“Cough, cough.” Lu Yu saw Fang Heng’s indifferent expression and coughed lightly. He could not help but remind him again, “Boss, let’s get down to business.”

“I know. Don’t rush me.”

Zhou Yi looked at Lu Yu with dissatisfaction.

He turned to look at Fang Heng and said word by word, “God, we can still think of a way to transport these weapons out of Haramori City.”

“What? Send them out?”

Fang Heng was stunned.

He turned to look at Zhou Yi.

“There’s such an operation?”

According to what Fang Heng knew, the special incident was indeed in a certain region of the apocalypse game world.

However, he had never heard of a player moving materials out of Haramori City.

This was because Haramori City was surrounded by a type of purple poisonous gas.

The purple poisonous gas was extremely toxic and corrosive.

The high concentration of the poisonous gas would kill the player instantly.

Even if the player wore a full set of biochemical clothes, if he were to be exposed to the poisonous gas for five to six minutes, the biochemical clothes would still be damaged due to corrosion.

After the game officially started, the concentration of the poisonous gas around Haramori City would gradually decrease, but it would not disappear immediately.

In the past, after a special event, the city would always be destroyed because of all kinds of accidents.

“It can be done! A friend of mine tested it himself.”

“It took me a lot of effort to get this method. It’s reliable.”

Zhou Yi’s eyes lit up when he said this, and he was a little excited.

Mo Jiawei was also curious, so he came up and asked, “What method?”

“God is right. Haramori City is surrounded by poisonous gas, so it’s impossible to walk on the ground, so we have to find another way…”

Mo Jiawei instantly understood.

He asked almost reflexively, “We have to dig a tunnel?”

“No, that’s not it.”

Zhou Yi raised his hand and pointed at the roof of the car.

“We have to fly from the sky.”

“You mean a helicopter?”

Mo Jiawei frowned when he heard that. “I don’t think so. I’ve checked the information. The poisonous gas in the periphery of Haramori City is very powerful. Even at high altitudes, the helicopter will be affected by the poisonous gas and will soon fall due to the corrosion of the propeller.”

“No, no, no. We don’t need something as high-end as a helicopter yet.”

“We just need to make a strong catapult device with super high torque, bring the materials into the high buildings at the edge of Haramori City, and then use the advanced catapult device to launch the materials out of the town.”
