Chapter 173: Chapter 125 Green Zombie_2

Maya took the note, "This doesn’t seem to be ours." If it were their task, the system would display a task prompt and they would find some kind of explanation.

The two of them continued to discuss as they chopped away at the zombies, and about an hour later, Nightmare drove into the cement factory. Nightmare parked the car to one side and walked toward the two of them, "What a coincidence." Her eyes fixed only on Maya.

Lin Air ignored Nightmare, continuing to be chased by four zombies. Although there were only four of them, Lin Wu couldn’t beat them head-on. After eliminating the four zombies using tactics like kiting and beast traps, Maya called Lin Wu over.

Lin Wu walked over to Maya, and Maya said to Lin Wu, "Nightmare is asking if we’ve seen a green zombie?"

"No," Lin Wu replied.

"Oh," Maya turned to Nightmare, "He said no."

Nightmare seemed unconcerned, "You were looking for me?"

Maya nodded, "I wanted to ask you about the Left County system map."

Nightmare replied, "That’s a task reward."

Maya asked, "Would you sell it?"

Nightmare hesitated, "This..."

Maya insisted, "No problem, just name your price."

Nightmare nodded, "A repeating crossbow."

Maya was troubled by this request; the repeating crossbow wasn’t hers to decide upon. Lin Wu, who had been listening intently at the side, asked, "Or maybe a note?" He took out a note with the Fortress Company logo on the back.

Nightmare was inwardly shocked and furious, you little traitor, but outwardly unwavering, "What note?"

Lin Wu read, "Green zombies sighted, please report to Fortress Company immediately, code 250."

Nightmare laughed lightly, "250? I see, thank you."

Lin Wu was taken aback, "What do you mean?" As he eyed Nightmare’s backpack and the ordinary contents on her weapon rack—submachine gun, pistol, crowbar... She seemed to have a lot of bullets.

"It means nothing," Nightmare said to Maya, "You should discuss with Stone. If you want to establish a foothold in Left County, you can’t do without the system map."

Lin Wu had an idea; Nightmare was desperate for the repeating crossbow. Such single-mindedness was incompatible with him. Although he had always cherished his Silencer, with the appearance of the M16, he was planning to upgrade, out with the old and in with the new. If it weren’t for the lack of bullets that made the M16 unusable outside, the Silencer would have been mothballed.

Seeing Nightmare heading back to the car, Lin Wu hurriedly said, "Nightmare, won’t you trade for the note? It’s a task item."

Nightmare turned back, "I don’t need it."

Lin Wu threatened, "We’ll trade the map for the note this time, but if you want to trade next time, it won’t just be for a map, you’ll have to add at least 100 ammo packs."

"Yeah, right!" Nightmare left a look that said ’idiot’ behind and got into the car, waving goodbye to Maya and driving off.

Maya dropped her hand and glanced at Lin Wu, "Bad guy."

"Present," Lin Wu handed over the note, "Now it’s up to you to negotiate with her. She’s already offended me, and for the sake of Shadow’s unity, you’ll definitely have to save face for me, so you must insist on favorable terms."

Maya said, "I doubt Nightmare would have many ammo packs, but since she dares to carry a submachine gun, she must have plenty of bullets."

Lin Wu said, "We need 5.56 and .22 bullets."

Had they traded earlier, Lin Ma would not only have given up the note but might have had to throw in a good gun, or even risk her taking the repeating crossbow back.

Lin Wu’s mistake was showing too much eagerness for the map by hanging out a banner. He should have waited for Nightmare to approach Lin Ma. The last deal with the repeating crossbow was also a failure for Lin Wu. While he came out on top, the other side lost badly; but considering his own interests, the repeating crossbow was nothing compared to the map.

Lin Wu asked, "Are green zombies a task zombie? Or could they become regular zombies?"

Maya replied, "They will definitely appear in the game. After the outbreak of the zombie virus, many civilians remained in the epidemic area; they kept a certain level of contact with the shelter areas, and even strong armed forces appeared. I remember one called Sunset Town, they had over a thousand people and used the terrain to build a tribe in the epidemic area."

Sunset Town allowed people out but not in. At the height of their power, they had two hundred armed personnel and nearly a thousand people involved in production. On the last day of communication, the mayor of Sunset Town told the officials at the shelter that their miners had found a device buried deep underground, about 10 square meters in size, emitting a faint green mist.

The last communication with Sunset Town was at eleven o’clock at night when the mayor informed the shelter officers that Sunset Town had fallen. The cause of the fall was an endless horde of green zombies.

Several days later, the Ruins City reported to the shelter headquarters that a device emitting green fog had suddenly appeared in the city center. They had tried to attack it with various weapons to no avail. At this point, the shelter headquarters started an evacuation plan and ignored the information from Ruins City.

Consequently, the evacuees had no idea what had happened to Earth after they left, nor did they have specific information about green zombies or what the so-called green device was.

...

After discussing, they continued to chop zombies, drawing out the Blood Plague, cutting down the plagued, until Lin Ma finally returned to the supermarket base in the early morning. Taking advantage of the limited time, without any competition, they grabbed assault rifles, killed some zombies for some shooting experience, and then went to sleep.

At nine in the morning, the two emerged from the supermarket base. The weather was very nice. Just as they were about to continue the bloodbath at the cement factory, an NPC in yellow clothes with a helmet rode a scooter swiftly toward them. Wherever he went, the zombies ignored him.
