“Alright, lead the way.”
Although Zhou Chen liked to make quick profits, he knew the severity of the matter. He immediately stopped and let the intelligent robot bring him to support Teresa.
The robot left the factory building with Zhou Chen and returned to the previous building. It passed through the hall and went down the stairs.
The building had many underground floors. They ran all the way to the eighth underground floor and passed through a few unlocked doors before finding Teresa.
Along the way, they found many monster corpses that had been killed by firearms or forcibly twisted into a ball, indicating that Teresa’s group had encountered quite a bit of resistance.
“The energy core should be behind this door, but there are many monsters inside. In order to prevent the battle from damaging the energy core, I need your help.” Teresa and the robot were standing in front of a door. When she saw Zhou Chen, she explained the situation to him. 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶
“Alright, leave the fighting to me. You guys go and get the energy core.” Zhou Chen did not mind fighting monsters. It was what he was good at.
Seeing that Zhou Chen understood the situation, Teresa immediately got the robot to crack the door lock. As this metal door opened, a strange smell came from inside. A few humanoid bodies and some metal aberrations charged towards them.
Teresa immediately used her ability to grab them and throw them out of the door, sending them crashing into the wall in the distance. Zhou Chen immediately ran to the spot where these monsters were thrown, attacking them with Eight Desolates True Energy.
The two robots began to search for the energy core while Teresa protected them.
During the entire process, Teresa and Zhou Chen were the busiest. Teresa was in charge of ferreting out all the monsters. If she could crush them, she would. If she could not, she would leave them to Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen went all out. His punches directly shattered the flesh monsters that were thrown to the wall, while it took some time to finish the tanky mechanical monsters.
The defensive power of these monsters was very strong. His Eight Desolates True Energy could not quickly finish them off, so as more and more monsters were thrown over, Zhou Chen began to fight in close combat. He used his body that was far stronger than steel to directly attack these monsters, destroying them as quickly as possible to prevent them from running around everywhere.
After a few minutes of fighting, the monsters’ remains piled up beside Zhou Chen. The frequency of Teresa throwing monsters from behind the door decreased. In the end, she walked out of the door and informed Zhou Chen, “The monsters are cleared. You can rest.”
“Have you found the energy core?” Although Zhou Chen had consumed a lot of energy in these few minutes, he was still full of energy. He felt that his condition was not bad, so he asked Teresa calmly.
“We found it, but it has been damaged by the monsters. The power supply has decreased greatly.”
“It’s damaged? Is there any hope of repairing it?”
Zhou Chen felt that their luck was not good. After spending so much effort to find the target, it was actually damaged.
“There’s some hope,” Teresa sounded uncertain. “According to the information I obtained, this is the only energy core in this area. We have to bring it back no matter what.”
Just as she finished answering, a robot walked out.
“Captain, the energy core has been deactivated.”
“Okay, I’ll go over now.”
Teresa immediately walked through the metal door. When she came out, a silver-gray metal ball about three meters in diameter was floating beside her.
This ball looked a little old. Apart from a few wide ports, several cracks could be seen on the interior parts.
But even so, Zhou Chen realized that it had been marked by the system.
[Nuclear fusion energy core (damaged)
Due to long-term lack of maintenance and some physical damage, the energy supply capacity of this nuclear fusion energy core has decreased by 98%. Professionals are needed to repair it.
A intact nuclear fusion energy core can easily provide electricity to a large city of ten million people.]
“It’s really a high-tech product. There shouldn’t be such a technology on Planet Blue at the moment. If Li Guofu learns of it, he will definitely try to seize it.” Zhou Chen could store this item in the inventory since it was marked by the system, but he would not do that. He would decide after it was fixed.
“Captain, the headquarters have replied. The transport helicopter that is picking us up has taken off. It will wait for us outside the polluted area.” As Teresa was using her ability to carry the heavy iron ball, a robot reported to her.
“Okay,” She nodded at the robot and then looked at Zhou Chen. “Li, I’ll have to trouble you for the rest of the journey. I need to transport this energy core, I don’t have much energy to care about other things.”
“No problem, leave the monsters to me.”
For the rest of the journey, Zhou Chen and the two robots stood beside Teresa to pave the way and protect her.
They killed many monsters on the way. It took them more than ten minutes to return to the ground and leave the building.
Then, they returned the same way and headed outside the pollution area.
During this period, they tried their best to keep a low profile because it was said that there were powerful monsters lingering in the polluted area. It would be very troublesome if they were targeted at this moment. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺
However, luck was a wonderful thing and was very difficult to figure out. Zhou Chen had originally thought that with his Survivor’s constitution of provoking disasters, there was a high chance that powerful monsters would come and cause trouble.
However, in fact, the journey back was relatively calm, and it was even smoother than when they came. Although they encountered a few monsters, they were all weak and were killed easily by Zhou Chen.
The mission quickly came to an end. The four of them boarded a heavy transport helicopter that had arrived early outside the pollution area.
On the helicopter, Teresa gave a positive evaluation of Zhou Chen’s performance in this exploration.
“Li, you contributed greatly to this exploration mission. If not for you, we would not have been able to achieve our goal so quickly. Congratulations, you have perfectly completed the first mission!”
“Thank you. Then… are there any rewards?”
Although Zhou Chen felt that he had not done much this time and had only killed some monsters, he felt that it was reasonable to obtain rewards after completing the mission.
“Of course, there are rewards, including 2,000 Paradise dollars and your promotion to captain of the second exploration team,” Teresa said with a smile..
