Chapter 271: But I don’t accept anyone.

Because he genuinely wanted to follow, wanted to go crazy with them once.

But his heart was filled with trepidation.

More precisely, it was fear.

Fear of losing everything he had now, fear of breaking his current way of life, and also fear of losing his life.

But at the same time, he also wanted to live a human life, wanted to stand tall in front of others.

Facing his companion’s questioning, he could only choose silence.

The other party saw that he made no movement, and knew his choice, it seemed he wouldn’t follow either, just like him.

This made him feel much better; at least he wasn’t the only one who was faithless.

Now that he had company, the guilt in his heart also lessened a lot.

And since this small team was disbanded, he also had to consider what to do next.

There was only one path: join one of the larger factions. Right now, he was considering which one to join. As for surviving alone, that was impossible.

While he was considering taking the remaining person to join, Qu Ge, who had left, had already found the man with the other two.

Qu Ge called out when he saw the man.

“Brother Wu, we’re here.”

The person called Brother Wu was inevitably a little disappointed to see only three of the five people arrive, but then again, it was his own words, giving them the right to choose for themselves.

After composing himself, Brother Wu led the three towards the RV.

After a while, the four arrived at the edge of the wall. At this point, everyone was very sensible and didn’t get too close.

They discovered that this wall was newly built, and the smell on the wall had not yet dissipated.

And what was the wall for?

It was for defending against Survivors like them.

So the other three also looked at Brother Wu, waiting for Brother Wu’s next move.

Brother Wu stood by the wall, observing quietly for a while, then squatted down and picked up a stone from his feet, throwing it towards the wall.

The stone hit the wall with a dull thud, echoing in the silent surroundings.

Immediately after, a mechanical whirring sound came from inside the wall, and a drone flew out.

The drone’s lights illuminated the surroundings, and the four people were instantly exposed under the surrounding muzzles.

“Who are you? What are you doing here?”

Liang Yu’s cold voice came from the drone above.

Brother Wu cleared his throat and said.

“We are here to pledge allegiance, hoping you can accept us.”

They only heard the person inside snort coldly.

“We don’t need the weak.”

“Nor do we have any plans to recruit people. Go back where you came from.”

Upon hearing this, the three outside the wall immediately showed despair. If the other party wouldn’t accept them, there was indeed nothing they could do.

But Brother Wu smiled and began to self-promote.

“Please don’t underestimate us. Each of us has unique abilities; otherwise, we wouldn’t have survived in this world.”

“I’m good at finding supplies. The one on my left, he can repair all kinds of machinery. This guy on my right is a master craftsman; he can make all sorts of weapons with simple equipment. If given the conditions, he can even make pistols.”

“As for Qu Ge in front of me, before the cold wave, he was a recently discharged soldier. As for his branch of service…”

At this point, Brother Wu looked a bit troubled. He didn’t know what branch of service Qu Ge was from; when he asked at the time, Qu Ge’s reply was just two words: classified.

At this moment, Qu Ge continued the conversation.

“Qu Baoguo, before discharge, I was an armored soldier.”

Brother Wu heard Qu Baoguo speak and quickly echoed.

“Yes, yes, yes!”

“He’s an armored soldier.”

“We all have a special skill. I hope you can take us in.”

After hearing the other party’s words, Liang Yu nodded affirmatively.

If the other party wasn’t lying, these people were indeed talents.

Especially Qu Baoguo, who was not only a demobilized soldier but also an armored soldier, which indeed made him consider recruiting them.

However, it was just a thought. Liang Yu could see the current situation clearly. It would be completely unrealistic to only take in Qu Baoguo.

As for the remaining three, Liang Yu could only say that one Mario already completely outclassed them, and he wouldn’t harbor ill intentions, nor would he betray himself.

This was also the reason why Liang Yu had already made a decision in his heart.

Liang Yu’s voice came from the drone again.

“I’ve already said I won’t take you in, and this decision definitely won’t change. However, since you’ve all said so much, I can make an investment.”

“Simply put, I will stay here for a period of time, so before I leave, I don’t want anyone to disturb me.”

“Therefore, I will give you a batch of supplies and weapons. What you need to do is integrate this area. It’s that simple.”

Brother Wu and the others, who had originally been rejected, were first stunned, then their eyes lit up with hope.

Brother Wu responded loudly.

“Thank you for giving us this opportunity. We will definitely not let you down.”

Only Qu Baoguo was a bit confused.

“Sir. You clearly have more choices, and better choices. Why did you choose us?”

“And aren’t you afraid that we might develop and then bite you back?”

Liang Yu also looked at the other party with some surprise. He didn’t know what to say now. Was the other party naive or foolish to ask such a direct question?

At the same time, the three people beside him had already started to get scared. Things were fine just now, but with that question, if the other side had a bad temper, they might have already acted against them. Perhaps before dying, they might even hear, “I don’t eat beef.”

As they trembled with fear, they heard Liang Yu’s reply.

“Who knows.”

“But if you plan to bite me back, you can try. I’m just bored and have no target to test my new weapons on.”

Hearing that Liang Yu had no intention of pursuing the matter, the few people breathed a sigh of relief, but they obtained important information from it.

Although they didn’t know if this information was true or false, the other party’s meaning was clear: if they wanted to bite the other party back, they would have to weigh whether they were qualified enough.

The other party had a great killer weapon that could wipe them out in one go.

From Liang Yu’s confident tone, this matter should not be false, and the few people silently kept this in mind.

At this time, under Liang Yu’s arrangement, the drone dropped a small batch of supplies and a squad’s worth of weapons, then flew away.

Brother Wu and the others looked at the supplies, their eyes filled with hope. Especially the squad’s worth of weapons and ammunition, which made them so excited that their breathing almost stopped.

They knew this was a rare opportunity that they had to seize firmly and absolutely not disappoint the other party.

Because Qu Baoguo had just asked why they were chosen, when there were clearly other better and more candidates.

Brother Wu knew that if this task was not done well, they would definitely be replaced, and then it would probably be truly impossible to survive.
