Wasteland for All: I Can Infinitely Upgrade My Vault

The green airdrop crate was quite large. Zhong Li took the items from the airdrop and was left behind by the airdrop crate and smoke grenades. This allowed him to lure other factions to the empty crate after he left.

Hongluan and Huowu, along with the others, collected all the spoils of war from the battlefield.

The loot was extremely abundant; even though the area was bombarded and blown up by bombs, a large number of items were still left behind.

25 rifles with worn rifling on a metal pipe.

[Morbid Poison Needle Single-Barreled Musket] x120

32 Black-bore Repeating Muskets

[Rough Bullets] x75 boxes

5 Camping Water Bottles

Wear-out entrenching tool x75

[Rough Repair Tools] x2

[Simple marching backpack] x15

Simple marching tents x2

[Rune] x650

Poison Wind Mortar Shells x8

[Basic Wasteland Relics] x65

These are some of the valuable items that the soldiers have selected. They can't carry any more scraps. There are hundreds of pieces of even less valuable scraps, such as the [Lowland Assassination Spear], [Needle Knife], and [Worn-out Patchwork Leather Armor]. These can only be sold to other scavengers.

All the salvaged items, except for the wasteland relics and runes, were packed into a simple marching backpack, to be sold at the Dark Merchant's stronghold later.

The three most valuable items were kept separately by Zhong Li.

[Perfect-grade weapon (red) Tyrant's Flail]

[Precision-grade weapon (blue) Bloodthirsty Battle Axe]

[Precision-grade weapon (blue) - Sympathetic Tentacle]

These are all things that Zhongli cannot use. The main reason is that these three pieces of equipment are too unique. The empathic tentacles enhance the psionic senses of the Eldar, while the other two weapons are too big. One is the weapon used by the five-meter-tall Doomsday Bull, and the other is the Tyrant Flail, which can be ten meters long when swung. It is really difficult for humans to operate.

Only its Bloodthirsty Battle Axe, originally its one-handed weapon, could be used as a two-handed axe by Tech Sergeant Seele.

This tech sergeant is anything but a homebody. Although she's a girl, she has hands of steel and can wield a battle axe to chop people down.

Zhongli originally intended to give her this battle axe, but she couldn't equip it!

That's right, the equipment requirements aren't met. This battle axe requires a combat power of 20+, and Hill's level is only lv1.

Once her combat power reaches 20+, the shelter will definitely have no shortage of high-quality weapons, so Zhongli can only take advantage of this transaction to sell them all at once.

When the loot was finished being tallied, Dumbboard and Chongba were still rummaging through the corpses, trying to see if they could find anything of value.

Scavenging is a natural talent for every Vault member in the wasteland. After a major battle, the lion's share of the spoils goes to the administrators. Slaves can also collect some low-value loot from the remaining scraps, which they can always sell.

Vaults are not Zerg networks, after all. They allow everyone to have their own will and even encourage private transactions.

The drawback is that I want to carry some supplies with me to sell at the dark merchant's stronghold, thus missing out on some profit.

When they found a ditch, Shortboard suddenly exclaimed in surprise, then quickly lowered his voice to avoid attracting other enemies in the shadows, and shouted to Zhongli, "Master Administrator, I have discovered the ratmen's transport convoy."

Zhong Li couldn't help but smile. The characteristics of the [Wasteland Investigator] profession are really good; you can always find some extra loot after a battle.

Soon Zhongli led the others to the vicinity of the ditch. Surprisingly, it turned out to be a mine track, which seemed to be the underground transportation network of the ratmen.

A ratman's mining cart, loaded with supplies, was parked on the track.

"It really is a ratman transport team!" Zhong Li's tone was full of surprise; he had actually guessed correctly.

Standing next to Zhongli, Hongluan suddenly frowned, thrusting her spear through the pile of spoils and picking out a menacing rat-man.

Sandfox Baker exclaimed in surprise, "A ratman engineering sorcerer?"

The rat-man chosen by Hongluan squeaked in terror: "There's a cowardly saying: 'Where there's life, there's hope!' Uh...uh...don't kill me! I can pay the ransom."

What a typical cowardly coward!

Once the advantage of numbers is gone, individual rat-men are particularly cowardly and timid.

Sandfox Baker nodded and said, "From a businessman's perspective, I suggest you consider their offer. Ratman engineers are rare commodities, definitely from the heart of the Grinning Mouth Clan. Usually, you won't find an engineer among hundreds or even thousands of slave rats. The ratmen will certainly pay an exorbitant ransom."

Zhong Li said calmly, "I will consider your suggestion. But first, tell me, what brings you ratmen here?"

"Ugh~ We ratmen are fighting those octopus-like creatures for military supplies in the ruins. These are the resources we need to transport back. Humans, no... don't kill me!"

Hearing this, Zhong Li raised an eyebrow. He had previously heard that the Great Sage of the Eldar had sensed important military supplies left behind in the military base in the ruined city, which was why the Gray Prophet of the Ratmen sent the main force of the Grinning Clan to fight for them, and the two sides fought fiercely.

Zhongli's activity area had barely expanded when he saw the two races fighting everywhere.

Outside Zhongli's sight, those two races must have been fighting tooth and nail, probably clashing fiercely in every corner of the wasteland.

What could possibly warrant such a fierce battle between the two sides? Could it be military power armor?

This rat-man engineering sorcerer was extremely timid and dared not delay for even a moment. He hurriedly said, "It's a war chariot, I heard it's a military war chariot, but we haven't found it yet. Human thing, don't kill me... don't..."

Before it could finish speaking, Zhongli waved his hand, and Hongluan decisively thrust out her weapon. The azure blade instantly pierced its body and then cut it in two.

Looking into its wide-open, unseeing eyes, Zhong Li calmly said, "I said I would consider it, not that I would definitely agree. If humans fall into your hands, would you show them mercy?"

The rat people in this area are all people who must be exterminated; letting them go back would only delay and disrupt the process of the deadly ritual.

Chongba kicked it aside and carried all the supplies off the ratman minecart.

This time, there were a lot of supplies; they were piled up like a small mountain next to the ditch.

Zhong Li was starting to feel overwhelmed; the team was truly overflowing! His own backpack was completely full, and the warhorse cart was severely overloaded.

Pushing another mountain of supplies would severely slow down our progress.

Just when Zhongli was at his wit's end, Seele spoke up and said, "Manager, if you're willing to waste a military battery, I can provide a military-grade solution to combine these two junk cars together."
