Chapter 12 Ranged Class

"Where's Fatty? Go find him for me! And Grey Bear! Tell them to come find me at our little building!"

Stepping out of the small building, Li Chenzhou immediately grabbed a combat team member and said to him. After all, Li Chenzhou and the others had brought the convoy out of the city and established this base. Therefore, no one dared to disobey Li Chenzhou's words. The combat team member immediately acknowledged the order and ran off like the wind.

As for Li Chenzhou, he walked towards the building they had reserved for him. It was already dark, and of course they wouldn't leave at night. They would still stay here for one night, so they reserved the small building they had lived in before.

The two little ones, Xia Ya and Xia Yuer, were in that small building at this moment. Although they had slept here for one night before, Xia Ya was unconscious throughout the entire process and had no impression at all. But no matter what, the building was more spacious than the car, so Xia Ya was quite excited now.

When Li Chenzhou returned to the small building, only Xia Ya and Xia Yuer were here. The cradle full of toys was also brought in, and Xia Ya was having a great time teasing Xia Yuer.

Although there were only these two little ones, Xia Ya was also an awakened person with abilities, so Li Chenzhou was not worried. He also planned to find time to ask Xia Ya about her abilities.

After all, in his previous life, he only knew that Xia Ya could control a large number of zombies. He didn't know the specific skills at all. Moreover, Xia Ya had previously used healing abilities on Li Chenzhou, which made Li Chenzhou's heart full of expectations.

However, just as Li Chenzhou planned to carefully inquire about Xia Ya's skills and talents, Grey Bear walked in. Seeing Grey Bear, Li Chenzhou didn't say any polite words and directly threw a combat suit over!

Currently, everyone in the team except Grey Bear already had combat suits. Only Grey Bear was still wearing that special operations uniform.

"You finally remembered me?"

Grey Bear caught the combat suit and unfolded it to take a look, saying.

"It's not that I didn't want to, but… when we were driving the convoy, did you have the time and place to change clothes? Besides, your outfit is more meaningful to the survivors!"

Li Chenzhou looked at Grey Bear and said,

"Moreover, you should know the function of this combat suit. I didn't want to give it to you earlier because I didn't want you to rush to the front and fight zombies in close combat!"

"You don't want me to fight in close combat? Why?"

Grey Bear asked curiously.

"Look, in our team, I am close combat, Xiao Xue is close combat, Xiao Lei is mental type, and I plan to make him a full-time driver in the future!"

Li Chenzhou counted on his fingers,

"So, we are now lacking ranged attacks. You are special ops, your marksmanship is already good, and your Jifeng Bu (Swift Steps) can use ranged weapons. Therefore, you will be the ranged class in the team in the future!"

"But… didn't you say that this thing will have no power when you encounter powerful zombies in the future?"

Grey Bear frowned.

"That's right! Firearms have this disadvantage. Using guns only requires marksmanship, and there is almost no restriction on personal ability! Because its power relies on gunpowder, without other bonuses!"

Li Chenzhou nodded,

"But… who told you that ranged weapons are only firearms?"

"Damn! You wouldn't… want me to use a bow and arrow, would you?"

Grey Bear asked in astonishment.

"That's right!"

Li Chenzhou nodded,

"Didn't we collect bows and crossbows today? You go find two bows later and make do with them first. At least you have to practice your archery skills, and then I'll get you better ones!"

There are naturally bows and arrows in the Slaughter Mall, but among those bows and arrows, the low-level ones are not very powerful, similar to firearms.

And the high-level bows and arrows are powerful, but require a lot of strength, which Grey Bear can't draw at all now, so Li Chenzhou simply let Grey Bear use the bows and arrows they collected to practice his accuracy first!

Bows and arrows are different from crossbows and require a long time of practice. However, Grey Bear's marksmanship was originally good, and he has a sense of ranged shooting. Now, practicing bows and arrows again won't be slow.

"Okay! Then I'll go find a bow!"

Grey Bear also nodded, then turned around and walked out, meeting Fatty, who was running over panting, and Tian Ya, who was following Fatty!

"Hey! Isn't he… never mind!"

Seeing Fatty, Grey Bear's eyes lit up. In fact, he didn't really like ranged attacks, because he himself liked fighting and even wanted to learn from Li Chenzhou, wanting to become his disciple.

Moreover, seeing Duan Xue's ability today made him even more excited, looking forward to when he could also have such skills. How cool would that be?

Therefore, after seeing Fatty, he instinctively wanted to say let Fatty be the team's ranged attacker, because he already knew that Li Chenzhou had taken Fatty as a follower.

But as soon as the words came out, Grey Bear dismissed the idea. With this fatty's physique, there's no need to think about it, it must be strength or endurance type, which has nothing to do with ranged attacks. So he had to leave dejectedly.

"What's wrong, Brother Bear?"

Fatty looked at Grey Bear's back, a little puzzled, and rushed into the small courtyard to ask.

"It's nothing! I asked him to practice archery, and he doesn't like it very much!"

Li Chenzhou waved his hand, then looked at Tian Ya behind Fatty,

"Tian Ya, why are you here too?"

"I want to follow you! Just like them!"

Tian Ya looked at Li Chenzhou and said with a serious face.

"Why?"

Li Chenzhou asked again.

"Two reasons! One is my previous promise, my life is yours now! So of course I want to follow you!"

Tian Ya seemed to have thought it over long ago and answered without hesitation,

"Second, it's… I want to help Old Dean and those younger brothers and sisters as much as possible while fulfilling my promise!"

"Oh?"

Li Chenzhou was taken aback, then looked at Fatty,

"Didn't Xiao Xue go to arrange for the orphanage and other children? Didn't it go well?"

"No! They were arranged very well! Sister Xue specially found two of the largest houses, which were filled with bunk beds, and the bedding was all new!"

Before Fatty could answer, Tian Ya took the initiative to say,

"Moreover, the parents of the other children, as well as Old Dean and the others, were also arranged in a house next door, meaning they now occupy three buildings! Everyone is very satisfied and grateful!"

"Since everyone is very satisfied, what else do you want to help them with?"

Hearing Tian Ya's words, Li Chenzhou was also a little strange, looking at the teenager who was about the same age as Duan Lei and asking.

"Things haven't stabilized yet, so others may not say anything about such arrangements, but they can't always be like this, enjoying such good treatment without paying any price!"

Tian Ya replied,

"Old Dean said that there is no free lunch in the world. If you want to get something, you have to pay. In this world, no one will love you for no reason except your parents, and we… have no parents, so we can only prove ourselves with our contributions to get rewards…"
