tool?

Ye Xiao opened the heavy backpack and took out the toolbox inside.

The box was large and heavy, taking up almost half the space.

Ye Xiao opened the box and asked Liang Kai, "Is this enough?"

Liang Kai peeked inside and said, "Wow, there's a drilling rig. But that's not enough. We need a welding gun and a cutting machine that can cut sheet metal too."

Welding gun? Cutting machine?

Old Han turned his head and looked around the village, saying, "There should be a small generator in this village, but where can we find a welding torch and a cutting machine?"

Ah Zhao shrugged beside him, "Yeah, who would keep these tools at home? Why don't we just find a factory that makes these tools?"

Chen Ge glanced at him. "It's not that simple. Let's not even talk about whether those things are still usable after all this time."

"Those factories are definitely located near the city. Isn't all this commotion just attracting monsters?"

The group stood by the car, looking troubled. Zhou Qirui looked at Ye Xiao, waiting for him to speak, but saw him staring blankly at the air in front of him.

At this moment, Ye Xiao was browsing the third category in the online store: blueprints.

It is divided into two subcategories: one is the detailed steps and drawings for the manufacture and construction of all machinery, instruments, or facilities.

The other is all kinds of tools needed for production and construction. All kinds of tools are available here. The most outrageous thing is that there are even engineering tools, such as excavators.

Ye Xiao was speechless at the so-called store of this live streaming system. How come it has all sorts of random things?

But the fact that they don't sell food is a bit outrageous!

Welding machines and cutting machines are also available, but those two things really take up a lot of space.

These two tools together are worth about 10,000 points.

Ye Xiao lost a lot of points last night, but the gifts that viewers showered on him in the live stream afterwards actually increased his points instead of decreasing them.

Ye Xiao crossed his arms and looked worried. "Don't worry about the tools, we have them, but they're too big. We can't just throw them away after we're done using them, can we?"

Chen Ge hesitated for a moment, then said, "It's not too far from the Gaotang base. It'll only take a day at most."

"We don't need to waste too much time here. What if we run into the Free Fire people again?"

Chen Ge is right. They haven't reached the base yet, so they can't let their guard down.

After some discussion, everyone decided to head to the base first.

After all, given how vengeful those Freefire gang are, they definitely won't let them off easily.

The back of the truck was so hard that the group used the bedding they had scavenged from the house to make a thick layer of it.

Then, Liang Kai drove, Lao Han navigated, Chen Ge and the other two rested in the back seat, while Ye Xiao and Zhou Qirui sat in the back of the truck.

The car continued its journey along the road, bumping along. Zhou Qirui glanced into the back of the car and whispered to Ye Xiao:

"Brother Xiao, can we trust those guys? Now that they know your secret, what if they..."

Ye Xiao leaned lazily against his backpack and glanced at the carriage.

"I've thought about this problem too, but the current situation isn't that simple."

"You should have noticed these past few days that the forces here are chaotic and conflicting, making the existence of asymptomatic individuals like us quite awkward."

"Did you see the veins on their bodies?"

Zhou Qirui nodded, leaned closer to Ye Xiao, and whispered, "It seems like all of them have this problem. Is it related to those mutated things?"

Ye Xiao nodded and patted the back of his hand. "Asymptomatic people are definitely those who haven't been infected. According to Freefire, our blood can be used to make medicine."

What kind of medicine do you think it could be?

Ye Xiao pointed to the people in the carriage, "It must be a drug that can be useful to those infected."

“As Afi mentioned before, there are several large bases and a black market called Black Iron. Right now, the only place we can go is the base.”

"There are only three of us, and we don't know anyone here. We have no car and no one. Even if I could pull out a gun and start shooting, our weapons are different from theirs."

"The noise was so loud that it attracted all the monsters on the street."

Ye Xiao sat up straight. "Besides, didn't you notice that these guys are like Superman?"

Zhou Qirui nodded, "Those Free Fire guys tied them up with nylon ropes, the kind used to tie cargo to trucks, and it was really hard to untie them."

"How are they so amazing?"

Ye Xiao stroked his chin. "I suspect it's related to those things on them."

He patted Zhou Qirui on the shoulder and said, "Hey, try to get some information out of them. We don't know anything about this place, so we need to gather more intelligence."

Zhou Qirui nodded, glanced at the carriage, and said, "Don't worry about that. I'm a salesman, after all; I'm an expert at getting close to people."

He grinned at Ye Xiao and asked, "Will we be safe once we get to the base?"

Ye Xiao glanced at him with a smile and said, "You're so naive!"

Ye Xiao's words made Zhou Qirui's smile freeze, and he asked in confusion, "Isn't that safe either?"

Ye Xiao rolled her eyes at him and said, "Didn't you hear what they said? The base is very strict with asymptomatic individuals. We still don't know what the situation is like inside the base."

"Think about it the other way around. If a group of people are all normal, but there are a few infected people, what will happen?"

Zhou Qirui was taken aback, then frowned and said, "Lock him up and investigate!"

Ye Xiao glanced at him and said, "That's settled then. It's just that here it's the other way around. The abnormal is the norm, and the normal is the minority."

Ye Xiao took a deep breath. "There's nowhere to go in this wretched place. We need to figure out what's going on here first."

[Heart of Isaac: So, even the base isn't necessarily safe?]

[Hip Hop Monster: Are you sick? Why do you have to go to the base? Are you just asking to be a guinea pig?]

[The rhythm is about to take off: Doesn't the streamer have weapons? He can make it on his own!]

[Master of Slacking Off: If I had a system, I would have slaughtered everyone already. Bringing two burdens is just asking for trouble.]

[Mini Hulk: If it were me, I'd just ditch these two burdens and make my own way.]

[Milk Egg Not Bland: Brother Xiao isn't Superman, can you guys think before you speak?]

[Sanhu: How can anyone be so naive? Don't you know there are police lying in wait in the live stream?]

[The Failed Men: I bet five cents the streamer was being spied on by the official channels.]

……

Ye Xiao glanced at the comments and wiped his face helplessly. "Guys, I used my brain!"

Putting aside the fact that he has definitely been targeted by the authorities, he is undoubtedly the number one focus of attention.

If Zhou Qirui and Liang Kai died accidentally, that would be an act of God. But if he failed to help them or deliberately sent them to their deaths, he would be the one who would suffer the consequences.

He's not a criminal; if he can save someone, of course he will; if he can't, that's another matter.

He's not here to live out his post-apocalyptic life; he's only doing it for the huge rewards the system will give him. Otherwise, who would suffer like this?

This place has nothing, who would want to stay here and pretend to be cool?

Once he receives the huge reward from the live stream, he'll be living the high life.

But if it's someone who's been teleported here, he doesn't care whether they live or die; he'd be in deep trouble if they went back.

Even his fans in the live stream won't send him gifts, so he won't have enough points to redeem weapons.

Expecting these troublemakers to send gifts?

What a joke! They're all talk and no action, no different from those trolls.

They're calling him a saint here, but once someone dies, they'll be the ones most enthusiastically calling him trash and inhuman.
