Chapter 82 A great harvest, the death of the superpower

When he came to the river, Li Lin reached out and grabbed a handful of the sand below, which had an obvious fine and frosted feel.

There is indeed refined iron sand in the river sand, and there is quite a lot of it.

"Hi~"

Suddenly, Li Lin felt a pain in his fingers and quickly took his hand out of the water.

Seeing that there was no trace of flesh on his fingers and a trace of blood seeping out, Li Lin felt no fluctuation in his heart.

Looking at the extremely fast shadows in the water, Li Lin flashed cyan light in his hand, quickly grabbed his finger into the water, and caught a lively red gold fish.

Red goldfish, also known as iron toothfish or piranha, has a violent temper and likes to fight, and is a social fish.

It is about the size of a palm, with a red line running through its body. It looks a bit like a crucian carp, but it has a mouth of extremely sharp and fine teeth.

Relying on its extremely sharp teeth, it usually likes to eat refined ore, but it also has a certain paranoid pursuit of meat.

In the waters where they live, any creature other than their own kind will be the target of their attack.

Just now, Li Lin was accidentally bitten by a red gold fish.

A single red goldfish isn't actually that big of a threat, but if there's a group of them, put a cow down and they'll eat you up very quickly, leaving no bones left.

Although this red gold fish is extremely ferocious, it tastes extremely delicious and is a rare high-quality ingredient.

It's just that the number of red gold fish is small and it is of great use. Li Lin didn't eat it a few times in his previous life.

Moreover, red goldfish are extremely delicate and will die within 10 minutes once they are out of living water.

Looking at the red gold fish struggling in his hand, Li Lin threw it back into the river, causing a wave of waves.

Red gold fish can be said to be the main method of producing refined iron in the last days, and its preciousness is self-evident.

A red gold fish can pull one tael of refined iron sand a month. Ten fish is one catty, one hundred fish is ten catties, and one thousand fish is one hundred catties!

These red gold fish are treasures and are strategic resources that can affect the rise and fall of a base.

Whoever dares to eat it will be killed!
Li Lin took a quick look and found that there were more than [-] red gold fish here, which could steadily provide him with one thousand kilograms of refined iron sand every month.

Moreover, feeding mutant beasts can increase their reproduction speed. If refined ores are found in the future, they can also be transported here for them to eat.

Don't think that you can escape his exploitation by turning into fish. These red gold fish will not be able to escape the fate of being exploited and squeezed by Li Lin for the rest of their lives, even for their descendants.

Li Lin was undoubtedly excited to get the answer he wanted. He would be able to use the refined weapon in up to three days.

You know, in his previous life, he spent four years in the apocalypse before he captured a refined dagger for killing an enemy.

And now, he can use refined weapons only in the second month of the end of the world.

Moreover, Li Lin also knew that there was a high possibility of a companion grass growing near the refining ore vein - iron grass.

Drink the water soaked in iron bark. After drinking it, it has the effect of improving your spirit and relieving fatigue.

Dragons do not mate with snakes, and the things next to treasures are often treasures as well.

Don’t underestimate the effect of improving your spirit and relieving fatigue.

With it, others will be tired after practicing "Wuji Marksmanship" three times, but you can practice it four times.

Yes, that's right!

Ironbark can make the curly king even curlier!

Therefore, when Li Lin came here today, he did not plan to go back to search for refined iron sand, but instead planned to dig some iron grass and go back.

Put it in the store and sell it to those volume kings to make them more volume.

Only when rolled up will leeks grow thicker and stronger.

After searching nearby, Li Lin found more than 20 iron bark plants in the gaps where the ore was refined.

The iron bark grass is dark brown in color, about ten centimeters tall, and has finger-width leaves.

Uprooting them one by one and putting them in his backpack, Li Lin prepared to take the people back to the base.

More than 20 iron bark plants are quite a lot. One plant can boil five kilograms of water, enough for ten people to drink.

If it is a person, one leaf is enough.

This time he came out just to confirm whether the landmarks were correct and what the nearby environment was like.

After all, he is the only one who knows about refining ore and the function of red gold fish.

Although the refined mineral veins here are small, their impact on the short-term development of the base is not small at all.

With refined weapons, you can hunt zombies and mutant beasts faster and more efficiently, and speed up the expansion of your base.

Li Lin could not kill all the mutated beasts and zombies by himself, so more people were needed to spread out and kill them.

By killing mutant beasts and zombies, the base can occupy more territory and collect various precious materials. This is a virtuous cycle.

On the way back, everyone, including Li Lin, was in a good mood. Along the way, we saw many survivors, all of whom looked hungry and hurried towards the Qingganling base.

In more than ten days, the reputation of Qingganling Base has been spreading little by little, guiding nearby survivors to gather there.

It is human nature to choose to stick together when faced with danger.

Arriving near the big tree where the snake corpses were stored, Li Lin saw dozens of zombies wandering under the tree.

There is a lot of bloody smell here, and it is not uncommon for zombies to gather here.

There was nothing to say, so Li Lin pulled out his arrow and started to attack in succession.

Kill all the zombies, divide the snake corpse into several parts, and let everyone carry some.Back at the base, everyone was not surprised to see Li Lin bringing back some mutated animal meat.

Everyone knows that Li Lin is a powerful marksman, and 90.00% of the base's meat is obtained by him alone.

It's just that Li Lin came back happily, but was poured cold water on a piece of bad news.

Hu Yu is dead!

The powerful person who he met alone a few days ago and praised him for having a good future died two hours ago!
Li Lin originally planned to promote the other party to captain in a few days, and by the way, Liu Zhixiong was also promoted to the position of chief weapons instructor.

But now the other party is dead.

Hu Yu's death had a very bad negative impact on the base, adding a touch of gloom.

He is one of the few superpowers in the base. Although he is a very ordinary power user, he is still a superpower.

His death has severely damaged the current vigorous development of the base.

After all, powerful superpowers die so easily, what should we do if it were others?
Will he die faster?
Are more people dying?
If this matter is not handled properly, Li Lin can even imagine that the future Sirius Guards will have no enterprising spirit, spending three days fishing and two days drying nets.

This is not the result he wants to see!
With his face as heavy as water, Li Lin looked at Zhang Jie, "What exactly is going on?"

Zhang Jie's face was not good-looking either, because Hu Yu was under his command, "Hu Yu took his group out this morning to clean up the zombies in the direction of Wangjia Town. But who knew that they were outside Wangjia Town? Encountered an extremely powerful mutant zombie cat.”

After a pause, Zhang Jie continued: "The other party appeared very suddenly and very fast. He was caught off guard. Hu Yu was bitten off his head by the mutated zombie cat in just one encounter."

Li Lin asked: "Where are the others?"

There are six people in a group including the group leader!
Zhang Jie took a deep breath and said, "Two of them came back, and the others are all dead."

He knew that Li Lin valued Hu Yu very much and paid him a lot of attention, but he didn't expect that he would die like this.

Moreover, he also knew that Hu Yu had received a second chance and was a power user. Now that he had practiced the "Eighteen Styles of the Black Dragon", he could burst out with huge strength, probably weighing over a thousand kilograms.

Life is really unpredictable. Yesterday it was a rising star of hope in the base, but today it is gone.

Looking at Wei Ya, Li Lin said thoughtfully: "Hu Yu, as an old man at the base, has made great contributions. Now that he is dead, he will be treated as a third-level hero."

At present, Li Lin has divided five levels into five levels for those who sacrificed their lives in the base, from high to low, representing different status and treatment.

The third-level hero pension represents the captain position, and family members can receive a monthly living allowance of 1000 yuan.

The first-level hero’s subsidy is [-] yuan per month.

The subsidy for level two heroes is [-] yuan per month.

The subsidy for level three heroes is 1000 yuan per month.

The subsidy for level four heroes is 2000 yuan per month.

The subsidy for level five heroes is 5000 yuan per month.

From low to high, they represent ordinary team members, team leaders, captains, commanders, and guards!
Moreover, you cannot be judged as a hero just by dying, but you must have made a contribution to the base.

Either to turn the tide, or to sacrifice one's life for righteousness, or to take the lead bravely.

Although Hu Yu was the team leader, he once turned the tide in the city wall defense battle and made extremely outstanding contributions, so Li Lin made an exception and promoted him to a higher level.

Although it has no effect on the dead, it has a great motivating effect on the living.

Don't be afraid of death, the base will take care of your parents!

Give it a try, the base will let you have no worries!

Li Lin asked: "Is there an old man in Hu Yu's team?"

Zhang Jie said: "He is lucky to be one of the two survivors."

"In this case, the other three people who died will follow the rules I set."

Li Lin said slowly: "Arrange one of their relatives to work in the logistics, so that they will not starve and freeze!"

The other party has just joined and has not contributed much. Li Lin has taken great care of him by doing this!
No one can fault him at all.

If you want to blame, you can only blame their bad luck.

After handling Hu Yu's funeral affairs, Li Lin said: "I will take care of that mutated zombie cat in three days!"

After a pause, Li Lin continued: "When the time comes, you bring the Tianlang Guards and Guo Peng with you. I will bulldoze Wangjia Town!"

Nowadays, only a big victory can reverse the decline caused by Hu Yu's murder and boost the morale of the base.

In fact, it is normal for a few superpowers to die in the last days, but Hu Yu died at the wrong time.

After all, he plans to launch a large-scale operation against Yulong Mountain in two days.

Now that Hu Yu has been killed, it has a great impact on the entire plan.

Not just morale, but precious time.

Damn this mutated zombie cat!

……

Although the mutated zombie cat deserves to die, he still needs a handy weapon. If he still uses a regular [-]-forged steel sword to kill zombies, he won't be able to kill many zombies even if the sword is cut off.

Although Wangjia Town is located in the urban-rural fringe and is a remote town in C City, according to the information he has received so far, there are at least [-] to [-] zombies in it!
With so many zombies, if you want to kill them in close combat, you must use refined weapons.

I originally wanted to take my time, but it seems I have to arrange for manpower to go sand washing this afternoon!
