Chapter 1 The Obstacle

Zhou Qian, who was standing next to him, curiously asked, "Sister Zi Nuo, why isn't Sister Zhao Han leading the team?"

"She can't get away, so this task fell on my head. And Zhou Qian, you don't need to be so coy with me, what do you want?"

Lin Zi Nuo smiled as she looked at Zhou Qian.

"Hehe, our team's weapons are also very outdated. How about you bring us along too? Let us get some weapons too?"

Zhou Qian asked expectantly.

"I can bring you, but not your team. The legion commander didn't leave many weapons at that base, and basically everyone has been assigned one."

Lin Zi Nuo shook her head.

"Okay, then how many people are we going with this time, Sister?"

Zhou Qian wasn't one to argue unreasonably, so she knew when to stop.

"About sixty people, including five mecha candidates, ten tanker candidates, and two armed helicopter pilot candidates. The rest are mostly life players, responsible for driving and transporting supplies."

Lin Zi Nuo said to Zhou Qian.

"Mechas?"

Zhou Qian was a little surprised.

"Yeah, the most expensive things inside are those mechas. Sister Zhao Han had to put her pride aside to get those few mechas."

Lin Zi Nuo said helplessly.

Su Mo was a little tempted when he heard this, but he didn't say anything. Although he liked them, they weren't assigned to him, and he could get his own later.

"Sister Zi Nuo, you said we're such good friends, shouldn't you get me one?"

Zhou Qian asked with a smile.

"Wait until you can pass the mecha training. Okay, it's almost time, we should go."

Lin Zi Nuo raised her wristband and looked at the time. She estimated that everyone should be almost here.

Soon, the four of them arrived at the west side of the camp, where five green-skinned trucks were parked, each with a team sitting on it.

Lin Zi Nuo turned her head to look at Su Mo and asked, "Can you drive? No, I'm a bit confused. You can even drive a tank, so driving a car is nothing, get in and drive."

"Okay."

Su Mo followed Lin Zi Nuo into the driver's seat of the same green-skinned truck.

"Follow the directions I give you, start by driving out of the camp and head west on the highway."

Lin Zi Nuo raised her hand and pointed Su Mo in the direction.

Su Mo started the vehicle and drove out first. Lin Zi Nuo leaned back in her seat, rubbed her shoulders, and sighed.

"Su Mo, I'm going to ask you something, and I want you to tell me the truth."

"What is it?"

Su Mo replied while focusing on driving.

"About the Er Chi beast incident, were you really not doing it on purpose? And that person from the Wu Ji Guild, was he really just a passerby?"

Lin Zi Nuo asked Su Mo with a relaxed expression.

"It wasn't on purpose, but that Sun Duo Xiang wasn't a passerby."

Su Mo didn't hide anything, after all, the matter was over.

"I knew that kid was glib-tongued, he didn't look like a good person at all. He even sold you out. You're really something, still trying to clear his name, are you really stupid?"

Lin Zi Nuo became more and more interested in Su Mo. Normally, when someone encounters this kind of thing, they can't wait to drag a few more people down with them.

But this kid was different. The guy sold him out, and he still took the blame for him.

"I was the one who opened fire, and I don't think he did anything wrong."

Su Mo explained seriously.

Lin Zi Nuo directly touched her forehead and sighed helplessly. She really had nothing to say to him.

At this time, the convoy was moving forward in an orderly manner on the barren highway. Soon, they entered the mountains. They were now heading to a military base located in the mountains, more than 300 kilometers away from Dawn City.

Although the road was winding and rugged, it was fortunately a hardened concrete road. If nothing unexpected happened, they would be able to reach it in just over five hours.

Lin Zi Nuo, with her slender legs in black stockings, straddled the front passenger seat, wearing an earpiece on one ear, and humming a little tune with her eyes closed. At this time, she was in a very good mood. This mission was actually not difficult, and it was also a lucrative one.

Unfortunately, before Lin Zi Nuo could relax for too long, Su Mo suddenly braked, and the car slowly stopped.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Zi Nuo opened her eyes and asked Su Mo in confusion.

"There are obstacles in the road ahead, we can't pass."

Su Mo unfastened his seat belt, then opened the car door and jumped out of the car.

Lin Zi Nuo quickly followed him to see what was going on.

Soon, the entire convoy stopped.

Su Mo and the others walked to the front of the road and saw that some gravel and collapsed earth blocked the road.

"Ah, bad luck."

Zhou Qian sighed and complained.

Lin Zi Nuo turned her head and said to a life player, "Qin Wang, take some people to clear it up."

"Sister Zi Nuo, that's not a problem. It's just going to take some time. It will take at least an hour to clear these gravel and earth."

Qin Wang estimated that it would take at least an hour, mainly because they didn't have any handy tools. Otherwise, it would only take ten or twenty minutes to get it done.

"It's okay, you guys clear it up. Li Han, take some people to set up a perimeter, and the rest of you rest in place."

Lin Zi Nuo didn't care too much, anyway, they had plenty of time.

"Okay!"

A middle-aged man with a firm expression took the order.

Zhou Qian rubbed the hair on her head and said to Zi Nuo with a smile, "Sister Zi Nuo, since it's going to take more than an hour to clear the road, there's a clean stream over there, why don't we cook something to eat? Let's have a picnic."

"Alright."

Lin Zi Nuo stretched lazily.

"Great, sisters, let's get moving."

Zhou Qian shouted happily. The scenery in this area was quite good, and having a picnic here was no different from reality.

So Zhou Qian led a group of girls with backpacks, happily running towards the stream.

Zhou Qian, who ran to the stream first, took out a portable water quality detector from her backpack and put it into the stream. Seeing the detected values, she waved her hand happily and shouted, "Come on, this stream isn't too polluted."

Everyone jumped into the stream, playing and washing.

......

Su Mo stood by the side of the road, not wanting to go over at all. He didn't know if it was because of the last Er Chi beast incident.

In less than twenty minutes, Zhou Qian and the others were tired of playing, so they started a fire, set up a small pot, and took out compressed dried meat to put in it. Then they added a little seasoning and started cooking meat soup.

Of course, just in case, although the stream water test values were not exceeded, they still cautiously used bottled water to cook.

The fragrant smell of meat immediately wafted around.

The girls' guild might be slightly inferior in combat, but in terms of secondary professions, there was no comparison at all.

"It smells so good!"

"Of course, Sister Qian's cooking skills are definitely top-notch. I don't know who will be lucky enough to marry Sister Qian in the future."

"Don't talk nonsense..."

"We're not talking nonsense, Sister Zi Nuo, we're right, aren't we?"

Zhou Qian held a spoon and gestured to the sisters next to her.

"You guys, always gossiping."

"Haha, she's shy..."

......

A group of girls joked and played around.

Su Mo was bored and looked into the distance, occasionally glancing at Lin Zi Nuo's side. The atmosphere was quite nice.
