Chapter 142: Expansion 1

"Chenxuan, how should we handle the crystal weapons?" She asked.

"We only have ten crystal sniper rifles, so we should keep them for the time being. As for the crystal gun..."

Mo Chenxuan fell silent but soon collected his thoughts.

"Each member of the main Team Legends will get a gun, the affiliated teams will get two each, and the army will get ten. One hundred will be placed for sale in our supermarket, and the rest will be kept in storage. We can use them as reward items or sell them later." He said.

"Not bad." Qin Wu nodded and quickly continued.

"Should we prioritise ordinary survivors when selling the weapons?"

"We can set a quota. Thirty for ability users and seventy for ordinary survivors. Also, since we don’t have many weapons, those who buy the weapons must participate in the upcoming expansion."

Qin Wu nodded when she heard the suggestion.

After one month of hard work, their army had five thousand decently trained soldiers.

However, five thousand was still on the low side and couldn’t compare to some of the other factions.

Although Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu were confident they could clean up their territory with just the five thousand soldiers, they wouldn’t turn down additions to their army.

"Let’s follow your idea." Qin Wu said.

On the first day of February, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu met their affiliated team and army leaders to finalise details.

They confirmed supplies, weapons, chain of command, and other things before everyone retired for the night.

At dawn the next day, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu led their team out of Villa Eight and headed to zone D.

As the eighth faction to reserve land, they were slotted to leave after the first seven teams.

Fortunately, everything was properly arranged, and their army finally left the base at around ten in the morning.

After exiting the base, Mo Chenxuan headed North, and his convoy followed behind him.

"It’s snowing more heavily." Qin Wu observed and subconsciously frowned.

"Mmh." Mo Chenxuan nodded, also frowning.

Because ability users and the army often cleaned up the area around the base, Mo Chenxuan’s convoy encountered no trouble and reached their assigned area in less than an hour.

After arriving, everyone got out of their cars and began looking around.

"There is no trouble within three hundred metres of the base." Mo Chenxuan observed.

"That’s good, but I doubt we can do much today." Qin Wu said, looking at the frozen ground.

"It’s enough to set up camp and build some temporary boundary walls. Cleanup can start tomorrow."

After that, the army was divided into two teams.

The first team cleared the snow, and the other built walls on the left and right.

Objectively, these walls were useless against ability users and zombies.

However, they didn’t need to be too sturdy because their only purpose was to mark the boundary between District Eight and the neighbouring territories.

Clearing snow and building walls lasted until late afternoon.

When it was done, Qin Wu took out some modular structures and placed them on the cleared ground.

’Thank god for the prefab structures.’ She thought.

If they didn’t have the structures, they would be forced to sleep in their cars or tents.

That said, the scene was a bit chaotic since the structures were of different sizes and designs.

Over here was a two-storey dormitory, over there was a three-storey capsule hotel, a ten-storey apartment building, and so forth.

"We are finally done." Qin Wu said, looking at the hodgepodge of buildings.

A moment later, she turned to Mo Chenxuan with a curious expression.

"Who are our neighbours and how are they doing?" She asked.

Hearing this, Mo Chenxuan stretched his spiritual ability and began spying on their neighbours.

Three minutes later, he retracted his ability and sighed.

"Our right neighbour is the Wei family." He started and quickly continued.

"The Wei family has a big and organised army. They have already cleared the snow and set up tents. As for our left..."

Mo Chenxuan chuckled and continued.

"Our left neighbour is the Superpower Guild. They have cleared the snow, but everyone is sleeping in their car."

After that, the two arranged the night watch and gave last-minute instructions before retiring to their single-family prefab villa.

Before the mission, Aunt Zhang prepared enough food to last several months.

As a result, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu didn’t need to cook after a long day of hard work.

In this way, they showered, had dinner and went to sleep.

The night was peaceful, and the third day of February dawned as usual.

After breakfast, everyone gathered on the empty ground in front of the camp.

"Our goal today is five acres." Mo Chenxuan started and quickly continued.

"We will divide into five teams. The first team will scout and bring back whatever information they can find."

"The second team will lead the charge to clean up the five acres, while the third and fourth teams will clear the snow and build walls, respectively."

"As for the fifth team, they will stay back to guard the camp and offer support where necessary."

Before the mission, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu received a dossier containing the soldiers’ and teammates’ information.

The information included age, gender, type of ability, speciality, and performance during training.

With this information, the two tailored the expansion process to optimise everyone’s capability.

Because of this, the division was pretty quick, and within one hour, all the groups were ready to carry out their duties.

Group two was the largest.

As the most powerful fighters, Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu were naturally in this team.

However, they didn’t ignore the other groups.

On his part, Mo Chenxuan used his spiritual ability to keep an eye on everyone, while Qin Wu used her auditory ability to listen.

After the scouts ventured deeper into the territory, group two began cleaning up the nearby zombies.

Fortunately, most of the zombies were in hibernation and could be easily killed, while the others were half frozen and couldn’t move properly.

In no time, the threats in three acres were quickly eliminated, and group three followed behind to clear the snow.
