Infinite Survival: I Can Plunder Passive Skills - Chapter 192
Chapter 192: Moving
The four of them walked in the wilderness and discussed where they should go. Before long, a pickup truck arrived.
“That’s the truck that Hilda had taken!”
Zhou Chen quickly recognized that the pickup was taken by Hilda. Now that she was back, his scalp felt numb.
“What I was worried about really happened…” Zhou Chen was depressed.
Hilda had placed her sister in his camp precisely because she trusted him. In the end, he had not protected the camp well enough and caused it to be destroyed in the missile attack, leading to a tragedy.
“Anyway, this day would have come. Let’s face it sooner.”
Zhou Chen thought for a moment and gathered his courage, preparing to endure Hilda’s anger and even hatred.
However, when the pickup approached, Zhou Chen realized that the development was different from what he had expected.
“There are two people in the pickup? One big and one small… Could Heidi be inside?!”
Zhou Chen immediately remembered that he had not seen Heidi when he returned to the camp with Li Guofu. He had only restored the crabapple card to her half a day ago and thought that she was still playing in a corner of the camp. She might have gone out during his absence.
“Lucy, Heidi wasn’t at the camp earlier?” Zhou Chen asked Lucy.
“I’m not sure.” Lucy immediately shook her head. “Captain, before you came back, I was in the storeroom organizing the goods that Hilda bought at noon. She seemed to have driven out again later. I wonder if she brought Heidi along.”
“Alright, I can already see her. Looks like only the old man and the old woman are dead.”
While Lucy was explaining, Zhou Chen had already seen Heidi waving at him from the window of the pickup. Only the old man and the old woman had died in this missile attack. All in all, there were fewer casualties than he had expected.
A few seconds later, Hilda stopped the pickup in front of Zhou Chen and the others. She looked out of the window and asked, “Li, what was that explosion? I thought you were all dead and came to take a look.”
“Our camp was bombarded by those bastards from Nete Tech. We were lucky to survive, but the old man and the old woman were not so lucky. Fortunately, you guys happened to be outside, or it would have been bad.” Zhou Chen’s gaze swept across Hilda and Heidi, and said with a heavy expression.
“Nete Tech dropped a missile on our camp? How can that be?!” Hilda could not believe Zhou Chen’s words.
“The truth is in front of you. The air is still distorted from the heat in the site. As for why Nete Tech attacked us, it’s because I have some conflict with them.” Zhou Chen pointed in the direction they had come from.
“Alright…”
Hilda had come because of the explosion from that side, so she naturally did not doubt it.
“Thank God, Heidi and I dodged this disaster… No, I should thank Heidi. If not for her insisting that I bring her to the wasteland to find some flowers, she and I would definitely be dead.” Hilda said as she reached out to rub Heidi’s soft hair.
“But it’s a pity about the old man and the old woman. Although I haven’t interacted with them much, they were definitely good people. Nete Tech is too evil. If you want to take revenge on them, please count me in.”
“You are really brave. How can you even think of attacking a behemoth like Nete Tech?” Zhou Chen was surprised. He did not expect Hilda to be so brave that she would dare to oppose a powerful native organization.
“Hehe, I have spent so much effort in that camp, and they blew it up just like that? With my temper, I can’t just let it go.” Hilda replied unhappily.
“Alright, bring us somewhere to rest first.” Zhou Chen felt like he had just taken a rollercoaster ride. He had been feeling guilt over Heidi’s death and worried about facing Hilda, but she was actually alive.
“Okay, but shouldn’t you introduce these two first?” At this moment, Hilda looked curiously at Li Guofu and the bespectacled girl whom she did not recognize.
“They are my friends. They came to our camp to have fun, but they encountered such a thing, so they will also join in the revenge against Nete Tech in the future.” Zhou Chen casually introduced and then beckoned for the others to get into the car. He then entered the front passenger seat and picked up Heidi.
“Big brother, I’ve planted that flower outside. Will it grow many beautiful flowers next year?” Heidi asked.
“It will. Next year, there will definitely be a large number of flowers outside.” Zhou Chen smiled and said to Heidi, who was in his arms. He knew that the crabapple flower that Heidi had planted was only a fake produced by the magic card and had no hope of reproducing even a single flower.
“That’s great! I will come to check next year!” Heidi was very happy to hear Zhou Chen’s words.
“Okay, everyone will come with you.” Zhou Chen comforted Heidi and turned to look at Hilda, who was driving. “Have you thought of where to go?”
“Let’s go to a small gathering place in the west and buy some gasoline. There’s not much fuel left in this pickup. Then, let’s go to a large gathering place further away. That’s the territory of Nete Tech. We can probe them first.” Hilda answered him quickly.
“Alright, those bastards from Nete Tech dare to destroy my camp. I will teach them a good lesson.”
Zhou Chen was already thinking about how to deal with Nete Tech, but he knew that it was quite difficult to deal with such a large organization. If he did not deal with them well, it would easily create trouble..
After a few hours of driving, the pickup truck arrived at a small camp.
This small camp was very similar to the one Zhou Chen had seen at the beginning. There were people guarding the entrance who looked to be poorly-equipped and were very xenophobic. However, Hilda seemed to know them. After chatting for a while, she got them to bring up two barrels of gasoline for the exchange of a roasted chicken by Li Guofu. Heidi, who saw this scene, almost drooled.
Li Guofu noticed this. After the gasoline was added to the truck and left the small camp for a distance, Li Guofu took out two roasted chickens from his inventory and shared them with everyone. Heidi ate so messily that there was oil all over her mouth.
“Where did you hide all these good things? Is it some kind of magic trick?”
Li Guofu’s action immediately caught Hilda’s attention. She realized that this man was very magical. He could suddenly take out various good things without her noticing..
