The night passed quietly. When the new day arrived, Wu Peng received a new wave of point rewards as usual.
However, what was different today was that the system had awarded him an extra 1000 points.
Wu Peng quickly flipped open the point reward journal to have a look.
The journal stated that the extra point reward had been granted as he had successfully stopped the satellite signal receiver from being destroyed.
Wu Peng was a little agitated, as he had spent all of the 2000 points he had painstakingly amassed previously.
These 1000 points made him a little more confident in dealing with any accidents that might arise in the future.
Wu Peng hummed a small tune and prepared a simple breakfast before he headed over to Ye Wei’s office after he finished.
When he arrived at the base of the law enforcers, Ye Wei was researching some pieces of information in her office.
Wu Peng saw that she was deep in concentration and remembered that Ye Wei had told him to knock the other day. “Cough cough! Good morning, General Hua!”
Ye Wei signaled for him to enter without having to lift her head.
Wu Peng wore a wide smile as he walked into her office. He shifted over to Ye Wei and stole a glance at the information in her hands that contained a report with the analysis of the corpses that were found last night. “What have you gathered from the analysis, General Hua?”
Ye Wei closed the file and placed it on her table. “After we did a thorough investigation on these corpses, we found that they all had the same snake-shaped tattoo on their arms, the symbol of Viper. We can confirm that these men had been sent over by Viper.”
“Snake-shaped tattoo?” Wu Peng immediately reached out for the file on the table. He wanted to see exactly how the snake-shaped tattoo looked.
“Bam!” A crisp sound rang out. Ye Wei had slapped the table and gave Wu Peng a cold glare. “This is the internal information of the law enforcers! Outsiders are not allowed to read it!”
Wu Peng knitted his brows slightly. Ye Wei’s attitude made him a little frustrated. However, he quickly put his smile back on. “It’s fine if I can’t read it. I can just listen to you tell me about it.”
Ye Wei saw the powerful control Wu Peng had over his emotions and thought even more highly of him.
It was actually fine for Wu Peng to read the report, as there were no other clues other than the tattoos on the men’s arms.
However, those men had died in an abandoned building near the station in a strange manner. Ye Wei could not understand what was going on.
Even if it was internal strife, how could she explain the person who had committed suicide by consuming poison?
The problem would be even greater if those men had been killed by some other organization.
The killer was able to eliminate an elite team from Viper without anyone realizing it. Even the law enforcement team a kilometer away did not notice anything out of the ordinary.
That kind of ability made Ye Wei feel tremendous pressure.
Additionally, after the other party had eliminated the team sent by Viper, they intentionally ignited the grenades to attract the law enforcers’ attention.
It was as if everything was under the control of this mysterious faction.
Ye Wei could not understand the situation after she thought about it for a long time. Who would appear suddenly to complicate the situation?
She suddenly had a stroke of inspiration when she saw Wu Peng. Wasn’t it very possible for it to be him?
He had a mysterious background and possessed the ability to produce his own weapons. He also had a determined spirit and skin as thick as steel.
She deliberately flared up at Wu Peng just now. However, Ye Wei felt that she overthought things when she saw Wu Peng act like a bum.
“General Hua, we’ve already agreed that I’ll help you find the core installation in exchange for some seeds. Are you deliberately trying to trip me up by not sharing information with me today?” Wu Peng saw Ye Wei sit there silently in a daze and started to speak in a weird tone.
“What I told you just now was all of the information we obtained from the corpses. There are no other useful clues.” Ye Wei’s tone was a little dejected.
Viper was extremely impressive. They have not exposed any openings even though the law enforcers have been investigating them for such a long time.
This had a considerable impact on Ye Wei’s psyche. She had always been confident of her abilities.
Wu Peng knew that this would happen. He did not manage to obtain any clues after he personally interrogated one of their members. How could the law enforcers find any useful pieces of information from their corpses?
He reached out and gently patted Ye Wei’s shoulder, then, as if assuming the role of her senior, said, “General Hua, the road toward the truth is often turbulent and arduous. Don’t lose your confidence after encountering a little setback.”
Ye Wei instinctively nodded. She suddenly felt that something was wrong and pointed toward the door in frustration as she shouted, “Get out!”
Wu Peng quickly scurried out the door.
…
When he returned to his little den, Wu Peng walked around his shelter.
Everything had gotten on the right track, but he had to continue to move forward. Humans had to strive for improvement.
The current size of his shelter no longer satisfied his desire to have more facilities in his shelter.
He had just obtained a reward of 1000 points. Even though he had not had the points for long, it was about time to use it.
Even though he had won during his first encounter with a member of Viper, that was merely the beginning.
Wu Peng was sure that Viper would not give up easily. They would send even more powerful opponents next time.
While he still had time, he had to quickly improve his abilities.
The current shelter had an area of 300 square meters. He needed 500 points to expand its area to build a simple gym.
In this post-apocalyptic world, having a strong body and spirit was extremely important.
He accessed the attribute panel of the shelter and pressed on the option to expand its area.
He heard a rumble that lasted for ten seconds.
“Expansion of the main hall completed. The area of the shelter has been increased by 20 square meters. You are rewarded with 20 points for your first expansion,” the Mechanical System’s notification said.
“500 points for 20 square meters. The property prices of the post-apocalyptic world are not cheap.” Wu Peng secretly cursed.
He accessed the attribute panel of the shelter. As expected, the gym that he had not been able to use before was usable now.
The Simple Gym provided the most basic equipment and required 100 points.
Wu Peng had wanted to build the gym from the start and decisively tapped on that option.
A beam of white light flashed in the shelter, and the Simple Gym appeared before him.
The interior of the Simple Gym was like any other and had a few pieces of basic gym equipment.
Wu Peng took off his shirt and started to lift weights after he finished a simple warm-up.
After he trained for half an hour, the system suddenly gave him a notification. “Strength of the host has increased by one point. The Physique Attribute Panel has been unlocked.”
“Oh? The system could still monitor my physical attributes when I trained in the gym? My strength increased by one point. How many points does my strength have in total?” Wu Peng immediately set down the dumbbells in his hands and accessed the system interface.
He searched through the interface for a moment before he found his Physique Attribute Panel.
[Wu Peng]
[Health]: 95
[Strength]: 20
[Speed]: 18
[Stamina]: 15
[Intelligence]: 19
Read latest Chapters at WuxiaWorld.Site Only[Mind]: 22
These were the six most important fundamental attributes. Several attributes were derived from these main attributes.
Amongst these six attributes, other than health having an upper limit of 100, there are theoretically no upper limits to the rest of the attributes.
Wu Peng examined the system closely and secretly thanked his good fortune. If he had not built the gym, he would never have unlocked the Attribute Panel and the system never would have given him a clue that this panel existed.
Now that he had the Attribute Panel, he could monitor the status of his body at any time.
