The sound of guns had continued in Yanshan Town for three days.
In the three days, Xiao Fan had quite a bit of funds credited to his account every day.
On the first day, Xiao Fan's troops eliminated 2,700 zombies and earned 3,200 gold.
Xiao Fan did not keep these funds for himself, but continued to enhance his troops, and produced another two squads of soldiers.
On the second day, 3,100 zombies were eliminated, earning 4,050 gold.
Xiao Fan supplemented another squad of soldiers and some special forces, including two flamethrower soldiers. During large-scale battles, flamethrower soldiers can play a huge role.
On the third day, 3,900 zombies were eliminated, earning 5,100 gold!
With these funds, Xiao Fan first produced a VP22 wheeled armored personnel carrier.
The cost of this vehicle was 3,000 gold. There were two drivers responsible for the driving compartment.
There were 16 passengers in the carriage. The entire vehicle was armored, capable of withstanding firearms and small-caliber machine guns. It was equipped with bulletproof glass, an anti-mine armor plate on the bottom, and sixteen gun ports that the personnel inside could adjust the angle to fire outwards.
Xiao Fan had wanted a practical combat vehicle for a long time, but had always been under financial pressure without being able to produce one.
Now that he could finally manufacture it, Xiao Fan immediately did.
With the remaining funds, Xiao Fan spent another 1,000 gold to produce a canteen truck, and another 1,000 gold to produce five mess hall soldiers.
Now the number of troops was increasing, and relying solely on the Lin sisters to cook was no longer sufficient. The production of the mess squad became a necessity.
The head chef of the mess squad was called Wang Chen. He was proficient in Sichuan and Hunan cuisine. The other mess soldiers were proficient in northern cuisine, Cantonese cuisine, Shandong cuisine, covering a wide range that could satisfy everyone's taste needs.
Over the past three days, the number of Xiao Fan's troops had also risen to a full 100 people!
He was at most three days away from reaching the 140 people required for a full company.
Until the morning of the fourth day, just as Xiao Fan was about to continue leading his troops to encircle and suppress zombies, something changed.
"Report to the Commander, supply boxes found!"
"Bring them back immediately!" Xiao Fan was very excited, as it had been some time since he had seen supply boxes.
Xu Qiang took people to retrieve the supply boxes. The communications soldier also came to report.
"Report to the Commander, new information was received on the radio!"
"Speak!"
"Many leaders in Yan Yun City have agreed to hold a trading conference at the Agricultural Machinery Market base in three days. Should we participate?"
"Oh! Trading conference?"
Xiao Fan stroked his chin slightly. He could imagine that if he participated, he might encounter Chen Fudong or Lu Wang.
Although they had not officially torn their faces apart, they were at odds. Things might turn hostile if they met.
But Xiao Fan was not afraid. Let alone his 100 soldiers, just the words "trading conference" were enough to attract him there.
He could collect other supplies by himself, but it was very tricky to collect precious metals. If he could obtain some through trade, that would be good.
He quickly made up his mind and told the communications soldier, "Tell them on the radio that I, Xiao Fan of Yanshan Town, need a lot of gold and silver. If anyone has goods to bring to the trading conference, I can exchange them for other supplies, hmm... including mutant beast meat!"
Nearly two months had passed since the beginning of the apocalypse, so the secret of mutant beast meat was probably not a secret anymore. Xiao Fan believed that such a resource would be desperately lacking for anyone, since not everyone had the strength and luck to rampage through the zoo.
So throwing out this bargaining chip would attract the attention of any leader.
"Understood!"
The communications soldier immediately broadcasted the message according to Xiao Fan's order.
Meanwhile, Xiao Fan calculated the departure time. It was 150 kilometers from Yanshan Town to the Agricultural Machinery Market base. Leaving one day in advance should allow them to arrive on time.
Looking at the funds on hand, there was still over 1,000 gold left. Xiao Fan decided to increase his protection a bit more.
He spent 1,000 gold to produce two more scouts.
After such a long time of experience, Xu Qiang and Shen Guangming could basically meet the requirements to lead a team. Xiao Fan decided to appoint them as platoon leaders.
With no versatile scout protecting him now, he always felt unsafe.
This time, Xiao Fan produced a male scout and a female scout.
A few minutes later, two scouts appeared.
"Scout Shen Ruihui, reporting to Commander!"
"Scout Xue Ninger, reporting to Commander!"
Shen Ruihui was a young man of around 20, with bright eyes, looking clever.
And Xue Ninger was a very beautiful girl with a great figure. Standing there in military uniform, she was hard to look away from.
"Starting today, you two are my personal bodyguards, responsible for protecting my safety."
"Commander, please be assured, we will complete the mission!"
The two scouts answered in unison, extremely loyal.
At this time, Scout Xu Qiang also came back.
"Commander, I found the supply box."
A wooden box was placed in front of Xiao Fan. He excitedly went over to open it.
"Congratulations Commander for obtaining the blueprint for base vehicle construction!"
When Annie's prompt sounded, Xiao Fan was so excited he almost jumped up.
He really didn't expect to obtain the base vehicle blueprint so soon. It was known that the most important thing about Red Alert was to have a development base, and without the base vehicle, everything would just be empty talk.
He immediately opened the blueprint. There was a lot of complicated text and formulas that Xiao Fan could not understand at all.
But part of it was understandable.
"Base vehicle construction requirements: 100 tons of steel! 300 tons of iron! 30 tons of aluminum! 30 tons of rubber! Requires machine tools and other tools, 10 engineers, 30 combat engineers. With all conditions ready, completion takes one month."
Xiao Fan froze for a moment. He could collect and prepare the other items, but he didn't have any combat engineers!
Upon inquiry, Annie immediately gave a prompt.
"Commander, combat engineers belong to the battalion unit establishment. Please upgrade as soon as possible!"
Xiao Fan immediately checked the conditions for upgrading to battalion commander, which required a full company and 50,000 gold.
After calculating Yanshan Town’s situation, there were still over 20,000 zombies left. There was no way he could meet the upgrade conditions here.
It looked like going to the Agricultural Machinery Market to participate in the trading conference was imperative.
"All troops mobilize to encircle and suppress zombies! Military reorganization tomorrow!"
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
