Chapter 87: Mysterious Ore
Just when Zheng Yimu was confused by Xiu Wu’s sudden hostility, Ji Yang and Tan Wei facepalmed at the same time.
Ji Yang: ’Here we go again. Although it was fun to watch Lao Xiu get jealous, it was too much for him to get jealous of every single thing. We must get rid of that mysterious voice as soon as possible. Otherwise, Lao Xiu will really lose himself.’
Tan Wei: ’He is really out of his mind! This won’t do. A solution must be found as soon as possible. Otherwise, Lao Xiu could really suddenly gouge out other people’s eyes or kill people indiscriminately. This is getting more and more scary, ah!’
After an awkward silence, Ji Yang coughed a few times to remind Xiu Wu, then looked at Zheng Yimu and said, "Since we have agreed to make this news public, does Captain Zheng still want to apply for this job?"
Zheng Yimu nodded and said, "Yes. The first reason why I applied for this job is because I am curious about the materials, and the other reason is because I want to challenge myself. I want to see if I can forge new armor or weapons with new kinds of materials."
Hearing what he said, Tan Wei thought for a while, then looked at Xiu Wu and asked, "Lao Xiu, how about we ask Captain Zheng to use these materials to create guns for us?"
XiuWu thought about his suggestion, then looked at Zheng Yimu and asked, "Captain Zheng, will you create guns for us?"
Zheng Yimu wanted to refuse at first, but he hesitated when he thought that they no longer lived in the society controlled by law of the past, but a very dangerous apocalypse era. Although the survival rate of supernatural beings is higher than the common people, once their energy is exhausted, they are like fish on the chopping board, unable to defend against zombies and mutants.
For soldiers like himself, a mercenary team like Xiu Wu’s team is actually a good asset to the base. They perform missions from time to time, which relieves a lot of burden on the soldiers. If they die while out on a mission, it’s not just their lives that are lost, but the base also loses a team of strong supernatural beings.
Thinking like this, Zheng Yimu nodded and said, "All right. Captain Xiu can give me the design and I will use these materials to create guns for the three of you."
After listening to Zheng Yimu’s words, Ji Yang seemed to suddenly remember something and his eyes lit up. He took out a piece of black ore from his space, placed it on the floor, and said, "Captain Zheng, do you think it is feasible to use this ore to create bullets?"
