Chapter 536 Abandoned Camp
"what--"

Lindsay yawned as she walked on the road, holding her hand in front of her mouth.

The team of refugees behind him were following step by step, no different from the previous few days.

Lindsay opened the map and found that the surrounding area was very safe.

The knowledge and skills accumulated in the past will all come in handy one day.

Probably the hunter's mark left by Lindsay played a role.

The next few days.

The Revenant who appeared that night did not catch up and attack.

Lindsay's several investigations found no trace of their tracking.

Until today.

Three full weeks have passed.

At the same time, due to the unpredictable dangers in the wasteland, the team's progress was much faster than expected.

Lindsay opened the map and did a simple calculation:

"Well... if we continue like this, it will only take two weeks at most before we can successfully reach the junction of the worlds."

"This is much faster than I expected?"

At this time, Hammer ran over from behind.

After this period of getting along, he also knew that Lindsay was easy to get along with. The middle-aged man began to take the initiative to contact Lindsay, but his attitude and tone were still cautious:
"Ms. Lindsay, is there any problem today?"

"Those wilderness hunters... still haven't chased them?"

Hammer was aware of the greed of people in the wasteland and was particularly concerned about this matter.

Lindsay waved her hand:
"Don't worry."

"Even if he does catch up and attack us, I can guarantee that there will be no problems."

After hearing this, Hammer smiled and followed Lindsay like a follower.

The team moved on.

At noon.

Along the road to the edge of the world, Lindsay spotted a nearly dry riverbed from the side of a small valley.

"There is a river over there, and there is still some water left in it. Do you need to replenish the water source?"

Lindsay asked.

The refugees had no reason to refuse and began to move over to replenish the water supply.

"This way I don't have to create unlimited water for them."

In his spare time, Lindsay opened the map again, and this time he discovered a special situation.

Following the direction of the small valley, under the cover of some rocks, there is an open flat land with obvious traces of human activities.

This place is well hidden, and it is almost impossible to find it from the road and river side. Lindsay also used map skills to directly detect its existence.

"This...residence? And there is no one there?"

To be honest, this is the first time Lindsay has discovered a human habitation in the wasteland.

He was a little curious.

So he said hello to Hammer and went over to check it out.

Lindsay jumped several times and climbed to the back of the valley. Sure enough, there was an open space created by humans. There are pits on the ground, with tent roofs made of rough wood, leather, and straw above them. There are also some abandoned farmland next to them, as well as a game processing point with a leather rack.

“Crops have been grown before.”

"But you can't continue later, and you can't make a living just by hunting, so you have to give up this camp?"

Lindsay continued to check with thought, and he switched modules smoothly:
"Old animal skin tent - abandoned for more than a week; abandoned farmland lacking fertility - almost impossible to continue planting; man's footprints - weight 56kg, height 177cm, fresh footprints left within 2 hours... …”

"Huh? 2 hours?"

After Lindsay's eyes slid over, she realized how special this data was.

Other tents or farmland have been abandoned for more than a week.

Why does a footprint that is only two hours apart suddenly appear in a place where production and residence have stopped?

"There's no way I stepped on this myself..."

Lindsay continued to check as he muttered, and more subtle results unfolded before his eyes.

A total of 6 groups of fresh footprints appeared in the camp. They were 5 males and female. They appeared and left at exactly the same time.

"……""How is this going?"

Lindsay was confused, so she simply activated her skills to piece together the clues, and the corresponding virtual images began to appear.

About 15 hours ago.

These six humans entered this camp from the south.

They first explored the structure inside, and then started doing some meaningless activities here. It looks like he is pretending to be an aborigine here.

Lindsay then sped up the changes in the image.

At the last moment two hours ago.

The six people stood up at the same time and moved towards the east side of the camp, as if they were confronting something.

Lindsay looked in the direction again and found several new sets of footprints.

But this time the combination is two men and two women.

What is particularly eye-catching is that among the women, there is a very young child.

"Child? Only 3 or 4 years old?"

Lindsay continues to guide the clues into combinations.

The four new people who appeared seemed to be looking for something in the camp. They started communicating with the previous six people after meeting them.

Finally they reached an agreement and the group walked west.

For an instant.

Lindsay imagined a lot of scenarios in her mind.

Dramas of love and hatred, competition for resources, and encounters in the wild appeared one after another.

However, Lindsay has no plans to get involved in other matters at the moment.

"After all, it's a wasteland. Whatever happens..."

"what?"

Lindsay just had the intention of leaving, but was defeated by the new tasks that appeared on the taskbar.

【Falling Goodwill】

[The rare goodwill in the wasteland was deceived. The hungry wolf had been planning for a long time and sharpened his butcher's knife against the shepherd. Travelers will lend a helping hand and protect those with good intentions in the wasteland! 】

[Task reward: a small amount of money, a small amount of attribute/skill experience points. 】

"..."

"The reward is so small?"

Lindsay frowned.

What he cares about is not that the reward given by this task is too small.

The task difficulty and rewards given in the task bar are always directly proportional, and more importantly, they are always closely related to Lindsay herself!

Such a 'weak' mission suddenly appeared, which would never happen normally anyway.

There must be something fishy in it.

"The beginning of a new mission chain?"

"But right now, I don't have time to stay in this world any longer."

After hesitating for a moment, Lindsay took action.

He thought about it carefully. After all, this mission could not only save good people, but also relieve his own doubts.

"Anyway, let's catch up and take a look first."

"They were only gone for two hours anyway, so it won't take much effort."

Lindsay made a decision and took action immediately.

He first expanded the reconnaissance range of the map and confirmed that there was no danger around him, then ran to the refugees and shouted loudly:
"Hammer, I have something I care about and I want to go west to see it."

"You have collected the water, you can stay where you are and wait, or you can go on your way first, no problem!"

Hammer didn't dare to make any comments at all, so he shouted back from a distance:

"Ok!"

"Mr. Lindsay, just go ahead with peace of mind!"

"As long as I'm watching over everyone, nothing will happen to you!"
