Chapter 714 Investigating the Missing
Zhao Man asked Zhao Jun for details, and then summarized the situation and told Su Chen.
Like the Watchers Alliance, Zhao Jun and his group frequently sent people out to search for supplies and hunt monsters.
At first, when a few people went missing, they didn't take it seriously.
After all, leaving the base and going out is very risky.
Who knows what danger they might encounter.
But when seven or eight teams and dozens of people suddenly went missing within two or three days, Zhao Jun realized that something was wrong.
So he organized an investigation team, led by an E-level combat power evolver, with three other E-level combat power ability users in the team.
While this team may not be considered exceptionally strong, it should not be underestimated.
However, less than half a day after he left, Zhao Jun lost contact with the investigation team.
He panicked immediately!
It's important to know that this investigation team is equivalent to most of their organization's top combat force.
Zhao Jun dared not delay any longer and quickly found the Watchers Alliance!
"Brother Zhao, what do you think?"
After reviewing the entire situation, Su Chen asked softly.
"Their disappearance is likely closely related to the monster frenzy."
"So I felt it was necessary to send someone to investigate this matter."
Zhao Man analyzed.
"I think so too."
Su Chen pondered for a moment, then spoke.
"Alright then, I'll personally investigate this matter!"
Zhao Man was stunned for a moment.
"Huh? Brother Su, you're going by yourself?"
"It's easier for me to conduct the investigation if I'm alone!"
Su Chen smiled.
Looking across the entire Watchers League, there isn't a single superhuman who can rival Su Chen.
To put it bluntly, involving other people might not only fail to help him, but could also drag him down.
Moreover, a large-scale operation could very well alert the enemy!
"Alright then, Brother Su, you must be careful."
"If you encounter any problems, just let me know, and I'll immediately bring reinforcements over."
Zhao Man was well aware of Su Chen's strength and didn't say anything more.
After chatting for a few more minutes, Zhao Man got up and left.
After thinking for a moment, Su Chen also stood up and headed straight for Sun Jiancheng's forging room.
“Built!”
"Ah, Brother Su is here!"
Sun Jiancheng stopped what he was doing, picked up a long sword he had just forged, and handed it to Su Chen.
"The longsword you asked me to forge is finished!"
Su Chen took the long sword and examined it carefully.
After a fierce battle with the Mother of the Netherworld Spiders, Su Chen discovered that his original Xuanjin Longsword was no longer up to par with the power level.
Fortunately, he obtained another Xuanjing crystal, so he asked Sun Jiancheng to forge him another Xuanjin longsword.
Like the previous knife, this knife is also sharp and exudes a chilling killing intent!
Moreover, Sun Jiancheng considered that Su Chen was wielding two long swords.
In terms of details, slight distinctions have been made, and you can see that one is on the left and one on the right!
"Very good! Thank you for your hard work, it's finished!"
Su Chen smiled with satisfaction and took out an energy crystal core as a thank you gift.
Sun Jiancheng accepted the energy crystal core without hesitation.
After leaving the forging room, Su Chen called Meng Qi and went to the parking lot.
He didn't drive the Normadison, since it was too conspicuous, and instead chose a sedan.
After getting into the car with Mengqi, Su Chen didn't rush to leave.
He opened the system panel and began engraving runes on one of the black gold longswords.
After doing all this, Su Chen drove away from the Watchers' base.
Since most of the supplies in the city have been looted.
Furthermore, there are many powerful monsters active within the city.
Unless it's a powerful organization like the Watchers, ordinary survivor factions can only explore further afield.
Zhao Jun and others were like that.
The last area of activity for those who went missing was located east of Yucheng.
There are several county towns here, which are located right next to Dongpan Province.
It took Su Chen two or three hours to reach the county town closest to Yucheng.
After storing the car in his storage space, he took Mengqi and headed towards the city.
Once they were close to the city, Su Chen took out the drone.
"Buzzing..."
The drone quickly hovered and took off, beginning its search within the urban area.
After enduring various natural disasters and attacks by monsters, the county town in front of us is now deathly silent.
The streets were extremely deserted, with all sorts of wildly growing weeds and plants scattered throughout the town's streets and alleys, and occasionally one could see exposed white bones.
The drone circled around but found no signs of human activity.
Su Chen retrieved the drone, called Meng Qi, and drove to the next county town.
And so, Su Chen searched three county towns in a row.
It wasn't until he reached the fourth county town that he finally discovered traces of human activity.
Through the drone's footage, Su Chen saw several survivors moving through the city streets.
"Mengqi, take me there."
Su Chen flipped himself up and mounted the horse, giving the instructions.
"Meow..."
Mengqi responded and darted away like an arrow released from a bow.
After breaking through to stage E, its body became stronger and its speed increased.
Even with Su Chen on its back, it traversed streets filled with wrecked cars as if walking on flat ground!
In no time at all, a person and a cat arrived in front of the survivors!
The survivors were startled when they saw Su Chen and Meng Qi suddenly appear!
"Who...who are you? What do you want?!"
An older survivor quickly pulled out a crystalline weapon and asked warily.
In this post-apocalyptic world, people's hearts are treacherous.
Su Chen suddenly appeared, accompanied by a large cat that looked like it was not to be trifled with.
No wonder these survivors were so nervous!
"Don't be nervous, just relax!"
Su Chen raised his hands to indicate that he meant no harm.
"I'm here to ask you about something."
In order not to provoke the other party, Su Chen did not use the scanning detection.
However, with Su Chen's strength, he could probably guess at a glance that these people were all F-stage evolvers.
"Sorry, we're not interested!"
The older survivor, who appeared to be the leader, remained wary and did not intend to answer Su Chen.
Su Chen frowned slightly, then an idea came to him.
He reached into his bag, pretending to take something, but actually took out two packs of compressed biscuits and two cans of beer from the storage space.
"If you answer me properly, these things are yours."
Upon seeing the compressed biscuits and beer, the survivors' eyes widened instantly!
Although with their strength, they wouldn't starve to death by hunting monsters, but their lives were still quite miserable.
For them, compressed biscuits and beer are simply delicacies!
"Young man, go ahead and ask!"
Tempted by the delicious food, the older survivors instantly became more amiable.
