Chapter 21 Hostile Forces! New Intelligence Unlocked!
Around three in the afternoon.
Chu Guang returned to the outpost above Shelter No. 404 with Night Ten and the game they had caught while hunting.
This expedition's haul was quite satisfactory; the two mutated hyenas looked a bit lean but each weighed around forty to fifty kilograms.
As one of the main sources of meat for the survivors on the Wasteland, the mutated hyena was one of the most cost-effective quarries. They provided meat tenfold that of a mutated rat, were not scarce, often appeared in groups of three to five, and crucially, the risk of food poisoning was relatively low.
However, it was relatively harder for scavengers to overcome these group-oriented Variants with melee weapons, especially without guns.
"Two mutated hyenas, and... one piece of good news and one piece of bad news," Chu Guang said, dropping the game at the entrance of the sanatorium, addressing the players who approached.
Old White asked first.
"What's the good news?"
Chu Guang replied.
"The good news is that to the northeast of Wetland Park, following the highway out of the city northward, there's an unfinished construction site. We found a large quantity of limestone there, presumably the kind that's been treated for sulfur removal. Plus, there are some abandoned hand carts that could be used after some repairs."
Joy spread across Old White's face as he clenched his fists excitedly.
