After entering this area, Bufan was surprised to find that there were many women here.
Looking around, Bufan roughly confirmed that the ratio of men to women in this area was about 1:1.
More importantly, many of the women were holding knives and swords, wearing tight leather armor, and had short hair, which gave Bufan a sense of being in a fantasy world.
In addition, Bufan noticed a unique young man who was drawing everyone's attention.
He was unique because his attire was completely unlike someone going on a mission; instead, he looked more like he was out for fun. Not only did he not carry any weapons, but he was also holding two beautiful women, one on each arm, and laughing without a care, completely ignoring the strange looks from the people around him.
"Shut up! Next, I will give you mission instructions. If anyone dares to make a sound while I'm speaking, I don't mind making you disappear immediately!" At this moment, a brutal voice echoed in everyone's ears, like a bell, making many people's ears ring.
Even some of the weaker individuals were so frightened by this voice that they fell to the ground, such as the young man in fine clothes who had been talking arrogantly just a moment ago.
"I don't want to waste too much time with you, because the battlefield ahead is still waiting for our participation. And you, the weakest of the weak in this base, are about to prepare for your simple mission! Next, I will call out names, and those called should come forward to verify their identity codes and check their mission areas! Let me add, I hope fewer of you return in the future, because according to the survival of the fittest, your disappearance will make the overall human gene pool better!" The man who spoke coldly addressed the people present.
"This time, your missions are divided into team missions and individual missions. Of course, which type of mission you are assigned to depends on your luck!"
"Also, after completing the mission, you can choose to return to the base city. However, if anyone returns to the base without completing the mission, congratulations, you will face the black-clad soldiers of the base military law department, so don't think about getting away with it!"
"Next, those whose names are called, come forward to verify your identity codes and mission cards!" After the man finished speaking, he gave a nod to someone beside him. A soldier immediately stepped forward, holding an old-fashioned megaphone and began calling out names.
"Vaseline!"
"Xu Zongmei!"
"Tom Riddle!"
"Harry Bader!"
"Chen Dongli!"
...
"Bufan!"
Finally, Bufan's name was called. He walked out from the crowd, approached, and first took out his identity card. After verifying his identity code, a soldier handed him a gray mission card.
"It's a team mission, kid. Good luck, go wait for your teammates there!" The soldier handed Bufan the mission card, then suddenly grinned and pointed to a blank area.
Bufan was slightly stunned, not expecting to be assigned a team mission. He remembered that Buyan had said that based on his situation, there was a 90% chance he would get an individual mission. Why was he assigned a team mission?
Despite his thoughts, Bufan walked to the area the soldier had indicated and opened the mission card to read it.
"Team mission: Go to the supply town 80 kilometers northwest of the western city to serve as a logistics supply officer. Provide the Fire Wolf Team with at least 1000 kilograms of edible meat. Mission voucher: Crystal core from a mutant beast + a fax statement from the Fire Wolf Team's logistics captain! No time limit, team size: six people!"
After reading the mission card, Bufan put it away with a calm expression and stood quietly, lost in thought.
Not long after, two more team members walked over. Bufan turned to look and saw a hint of surprise in his eyes.
The two new members were both women, one of whom was quite attractive, while the other was more ordinary.
"Alright, your team is complete, and you should all know your mission. Set off quickly. In half an hour, the black-clad soldiers will seal off this area and conduct a search. If you are caught, you know the consequences!" A soldier walked over, spoke to Bufan and the others, and then left.
"Who among us has a vehicle?" The big man with the large knife looked at everyone and asked first.
The others looked at each other but remained silent. After all, those setting out at this time were from the lower echelons of the base city. Even though the price of old vehicles was not high, it was still a significant expense for them.
Bufan did have a super motorcycle, but the problem was that everything was stored in his spatial bracelet, and it wasn't the right time to take it out.
In fact, although this was Bufan's first mission, he understood the principle that a man without talent is not guilty, but a man with talent is. Even though he had many luxurious items, he kept everything except a high-quality inner armor in his spatial bracelet.
Instead, before coming, he had ordered a batch of shabby items from the store in the SkyNet and dressed in a low-end manner.
"I have a vehicle, a Raptor pickup, in the parking lot outside the city," the last woman, who was somewhat attractive, said in a low voice.
"Good, since it's a team mission, we are naturally bound together. After leaving the city, we are brothers and partners. Can you bring out your vehicle for everyone to use?" The big man with the knife seemed experienced. After the woman spoke, he only glanced at her in surprise before speaking seriously.
The others nodded in agreement with the big man's words, and Bufan also nodded without any objections.
"Lead the way!" The big man said to the woman, who then walked ahead.
Soon, Bufan followed them to the city gate. Although he had known that the base city in the post-apocalyptic world was fortified, he was still shocked when he saw the tall walls built later.
According to the information Bufan had gathered, it was said that when the walls of this base city were being built, the tasks issued by the base government became stone quarrying and brick making. It took hundreds of thousands of people five years to build such a tall and thick wall around the vast base.
There was no time for too much reflection. Following the others, Bufan walked out of the city gate and headed towards the parking lot outside the city.
