Chapter 57 – Calm Down

Li Tao followed Lu Xiaopeng, he was still shocked .

This man’s strength was almost broke the first awakening stage . Although this person wasn’t as strong as himself, he would still be considered strong enough in any small shelter . Maybe the three people behind him were even weaker than this man .

Such a strong person was a mere soldier . Li Tao couldn’t believe it . Maybe they were just bluffing?

They moved forward to the villa area where Li Tao was familiar with . Along the way, he saw other survivors working . Some of them were transporting waste materials, some were cleaning the road, and some others were doing some construction works . The view was exactly like his imagination . Although the Tree Shade Shelter was severely damaged, the survivors who survived the attack were all in a good condition .

“We’re almost there . ” The leading person said .

Li Tao responded absently . He already knew since he had been here several times . After passing this road and climbed a little bit, they could see the villa area .

Suddenly, he saw his team jaw-dropping . Their eyes were staring past him .

In front?

Li Tao was confused and also looked forward .

“It’s… It’s a city wall! How is that even possible? It wasn’t there before, how did the Tree Shade Shelter built this city wall in such a short time?!”

He saw the hunter leading them stopped and took out a cigarette from his pocket . He lit up the cigarette and wait for them, “I’ll wait here, we will continue after you finish . Calm down, what you’re about to see is not just city walls . ”

Lu Xiaopeng waved his hand and exhaled the smoke from his mouth .

Li Tao and the others followed the hunter . As they walked through the gates, they were even more amazed to observe the city wall at a close range . With such a wall, they didn’t have to worry about demonic wave .

He couldn’t help but felt envious .

The numbers of survivors increased as they approached the villa area . Everyone was busy doing work . Li Tao saw several patrols in black combat uniforms and armed with guns .

He was forced to believe that it was indeed the standard equipment for soldiers .

Shortly, the leading man pointed to a villa, “We’re here . ”

The villa had been repaired and the sign of damage was nowhere to be seen . It seemed like they used this place as the general office .

Following Lu Xiaopeng, Li Tao stepped into the villa and saw Chen Haiping was calculating the daily workload of the survivors . After greeting him, Li Tao called his men as Lu Xiaopeng said, “Mr . Chen, they said they are a team from the Creek Forest Shelter…”

Li Tao was impressed with Chen Haiping . They had met before when he visited the shelter last time . He was relieved to saw a familiar face as so many things had changed from the Tree Shade Shelter .

However, he was stunned again .

In his memory, Chen Haiping strength was ranked in the middle-high rank in the shelter . The Tree Shade and Creek Forest shelter’s strength was similar . His strength was somewhere near the peak, if he was lucky, he could break through the double awakening .

But now, Chen Haiping’s strength was even stronger than him . Maybe he was reaching the peak of the double awakening .

Was he this strong?

Li Tao was lost in the moment . He began to question his strength .

After a short pause, he took a deep breath and decided to put away all the things he had seen in this shelter . He would ask about it later when they finished exchanging .

He stated the purpose of his trip .

“Exchange? That’s fine . ”

Chen Haiping nodded, he acted like a proper general manager of the shelter .

There was a time when he longed to be a warrior . But now as a clerical writer, his power also accelerated . This was probably the most comfortable option .

Li Tao put the backpack in the desk and took out a greenish-blue fruit with the appearance like an apple, “This is green fruit . It’s one of new variety of fruits that appeared after doomsday . It can be used as a staple food since it can satisfy hunger . The tree is quite common, as long as you could master the method of finding the fruit tree, you can relieve the food shortage of your shelter . We can tell you about the method if you bid well . ”

Li Tao finished his words in one breath and waited for Chen Haiping’s answer .

Since his shelter found this green fruit was non-toxic and edible, their food shortage was somewhat relieved a lot . His people who didn’t want to believe in the Tree Shade Shelter were worried that they would refuse . But on the contrary, now that the Tree Shade Shelter was attacked by demonic wave, they could get enough food this way .

However, Chen Haiping was unimpressed .

Just calm down!

Li Tao thought about it . He decided to take out other goods such as demonic beast materials, some daily necessities, and medicines . These goods were rare in the doomsday . That’s the main reason why the Creek Forest and Tree Shade forest often exchanged materials . Generally, they would take out their surplus materials and exchange it for the materials they lacked in stock .

Medicine, for example . It was a rare item during the doomsday . It happened that Creek Forest shelter had surplus stock of medicine but lacked of other materials . So they brought their surplus materials and see what the Tree Shade Shelter had in stock . The same thing applied to Tree Shade Shelter, they’d sent a team to Creek Forest Shelter for exchange .

However…

Chen Haiping pondered, “To be honest, we don’t lack any of these things . We can buy some medicines but we don’t need the others . ”

Medicine and daily necessities were the things that couldn’t be produced in the territory . Previously, they indeed lacked of the 2 items . However, after they had the space backpack, it’s no longer the case . Every time Roger went out, he grabbed many of these things in the backpack .

Their medicine stock was secured .

Naturally, Li Tao didn’t understand why . But he accepted it anyway .

Chen Haiping said, “Although we don’t need your supplies, you can take a look at our stock . ”

He got up and walked into another room .

Li Tao followed .

He was also curious about what items the Tree Shade Shelter had in stock .

When he entered the room, he noticed the room was already crowded . The hunter who just guided them in was among the crowds .

“I’m going to spend my contribution points for the training pass for the third and fourth floor . One points every two hours . I’m planning to go there tonight . Fatty Peng, why don’t you come with me?”

“Of course I’ll go . This time I’ll be able to hold it for five minutes and beat you!”

“What’s on the fifth floor anyway? 60 contribution points for half a day . The minimum charge is half of it . Which means…”

Lu Xiaopeng was curious . Every time Captain Roger wasn’t training on the third of fourth floor, he sneaked to the fifth floor to peek what’s inside . He knew it was an unusual training facility .
