New Mission (Chapter 197)
Gu Luoyu raised her eyebrows, feeling a bit surprised. Recently, she had been hearing a lot of such invitations, which was quite unusual.
In the past, when she was still Erensu, people rarely dared to say such things...
She didn't respond immediately but turned her head to look at Ye Sheng, letting her handle it. “Xiao Sheng, what do you think?”
For Gu Luoyu, it didn't matter what they decided. She was leaving it all up to Ye Sheng.
Ye Sheng didn't hesitate either. Her bright almond eyes stared at the woman.
This was the newly established Imposter Handling Team from the base, Team 3, led by Captain Lin. She wasn't a young woman, but the fine lines at the corners of her eyes added a touch of elegance and experience.
It was hard to imagine that she had once calmly commanded her team to clean up a horrifying scene of dismembered bodies.
Because Ye Sheng wanted to help the base handle the crisis and keep it going, she didn't want her child to grow up in the wilderness as a little wild child. So, she didn't immediately reject Captain Lin's invitation.
Seeing that there was a chance, Captain Lin didn't beat around the bush. “Actually, we're upgrading the current team mission. We're changing the outer city area to a wilderness search and capture mission. We'll kill all the Imposters we find, leaving no survivors!”
Originally, the base had considered whether to issue related missions, but capturing Imposters in the safe zone still had its advantages... If they went into the wilderness, once they encountered a group of Imposters, it would definitely not end well.
Just like some contaminated creatures would huddle together for warmth, Imposters were the same. Recently, many people who had gone scavenging in the wilderness had lost their lives, ending up in the stomachs of Imposters.
Therefore, considering the disparity in strength, it was better to be conservative.
They will only conduct search missions in the safe zone.
Besides, the base didn't want to send Espers to handle this because it was a waste of talent!
After all, Imposters were only eating people now, and their numbers weren't out of control yet, so they could still be managed... The real use of Espers was to hunt down those powerful contaminated creatures!
Compared to the chaos caused by Imposters, the contaminated creatures with their immense strength were the most dangerous.
And now, they had finally encountered an Esper in the wild, a free agent not affiliated with any organization, exactly the kind of talent they urgently needed!
So, Captain Lin had already reported to her superiors in advance, and it was almost instantly approved.
Now, all that was left was to convince the Esper.
Gu Luoyu had her talk to another ordinary person, but Captain Lin wasn't angry. Instead, she was delighted because she didn't have much confidence in convincing a crazy Esper.
It was more likely to succeed talking to a normal person!
“Compared to previous mission rewards, this team mission has a base reward of 1, 000 team points, plus for every Imposter killed, using the Super Intelligence Network to transmit information, after verification, you'll receive a subsidy of 10 team points... Of course, with such generous subsidies, this team mission also has corresponding requirements. The minimum number of Imposters to be killed is 200, otherwise, you won't get the kill subsidy!”
How much? 1,000 team points?
Ye Sheng immediately broadened her eyes in shock. Last time, when she followed Mo Lin and a few other teams to transport supplies, each team was only given a reward of 500 team points, which had to be divided among everyone.
But this time, the mission only requires two of them to get 1,000 team points, and they can also get additional points for killing Imposters.
This team mission was too good!
Although they couldn't stay in the safe zone and had to venture into the wilderness, she and Gu Luoyu already had the ability to protect themselves. They could ensure their safety in the dangerous wilderness without worrying about anything else.
Not to mention, Gu Luoyu's ability to devour the hearts of contaminated creatures with her psychic power was already enough to make them invincible.
While Ye Sheng was excited in her heart, the pleasant surprises kept coming. Captain Lin didn't hesitate to add more incentives. “In addition to the point rewards, after completing the mission, if you kill more than 500 Imposters, you can choose a weapon or potion worth up to 5, 000 points for free from the team's armory.”
“By the way, are you perhaps thinking of forming a new team? If so, as long as you complete this new mission, you'll receive a special reward. The requirement for ten missions will be reduced by half. Including the previous supply transport mission, you only need to complete four more team missions to meet the standard.”
In dealing with Espers, Captain Lin chose to be honest rather than hide the rewards... After all, it wasn't coming out of her salary, so she naturally wanted to present the most favorable conditions.
After all, standing in front of her was an Esper, a rare and excellent combat talent!
Hearing this, Ye Sheng didn't remain silent any longer and immediately responded, “We accept the mission upgrade!”
Ye Sheng smiled and was about to step forward to shake her hands, but Gu Luoyu grabbed her hand, not letting her move.
This sudden display of jealousy made Ye Sheng feel both speechless and amused.
Captain Lin, who was very perceptive, naturally didn't want to anger the ability user.
She pretended quickly to be busy and fiddled with the Super Intelligence Network wristwatch.
Soon, the watch on Gu Luoyu's wrist beeped, indicating that the team mission had been updated.
“Then I won't disturb you any longer. I wish you smooth sailing. Besides killing Imposters, if you find any traces of the Black Spring Freemasonry or other organizations, you'll receive additional rewards after reporting them!”
After Captain Lin left, Gu Luoyu and Ye Sheng had a serious discussion and decided to set out today.
After all, there was nothing to do in the safe zone. It was better to go out and kill Imposters to earn points... Compared to the base's ordinary points, team points were obviously more valuable.
Especially the part about reducing the number of team missions required was just too great!
Forming their own personal team was just around the corner!
After that, Gu Luoyu drove home to pick up Ye Heiya, and the two of them, along with the swan, immediately headed out of the safe zone, hoping to start off with a “good omen.”
Recently, because the base had been strictly controlling entry, it was difficult for Imposters to sneak in, so they had turned their attention to people going out to scavenge, easily killing and devouring them.
Compared to ordinary people, Imposters preferred to eat mercenaries and new ability users, finding their taste more appealing.
New ability users were humans who had successfully used transformation potions. Although they didn't have the immense strength of Espers, their various novel abilities were still useful.
Like Chen Yuan's ability to attack with shadows...
Thinking about this, when the car successfully drove out of the base, Ye Sheng secretly sneaked around and indeed saw something following them, even boldly making noise.
