What If I Can't Die? Chapter 653 – 653 Ten Thousand Times Reward (1)

653 Ten Thousand Times Reward (1)
“You can stay in any tent that no one is in. Go to the logistics department to collect your weapons and food. Remember, don't go too far away from here usually. Otherwise, if you're discovered, you might be treated as a deserter and be shot dead.”

Brother Cha pointed at a few places and introduced the situation to Song Shi. “Don't think that you can escape. There are infrared surveillance cameras nearby. If any living beings approach or leave, they will be closely watched.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Song Shi was secretly delighted. He looked at the tent closest to the burial ground. Perhaps it was because it was next to a dead person, but the tents here were not lit up. There should be no one around.

“Hurry up and get your weapon. I think with your small arms and legs, if you don't have a weapon in hand, you'll be bitten to death by mutated beasts in a single move.”

Song Shi nodded. Following Brother Cha's guidance, he quickly obtained an old gunpowder rifle, 50 bullets, three grenades, two sets of old military uniforms, an old green helmet, a water bottle, a dagger, and a box of expired compressed biscuits.

That's right, the compressed biscuits were actually f*cking expired. When Song Shi looked at the weapons and equipment again, it was obvious that they had been eliminated. He felt like ten thousand horses were running over in his heart.

“Cannon fodder really has no human rights!”

Song Shi cursed in his heart. On the surface, his face was dark, but he did not say anything.

He could tell that the people distributing things here were also death row prisoners. Only a small number of people with neat clothes, exoskeleton armor, and machine guns were normal soldiers.

However, these guys with the best weapons and even armor were in charge of supervising the army. They managed hundreds of people, which was equivalent to a battalion of death row prisoners.

According to his information, there were dozens of such cannon fodder camps in the base city. There were more than 10,000 of them, which was equivalent to an army.

Not far from these cannon fodder camps were the regular city guards, which was equivalent to the first direction of human flesh. They were facing the most dangerous situation.

Usually, if mutated beasts disturbed or even invaded, the cannon fodder camp would be the first to bear the brunt.

After Song Shi understood the situation, he could only curse in his heart.

He had already gone through several cycles of reincarnation and discovered a similarity.

The targets of reincarnation were not good, and the situation was even very bad. It was obvious that Celestial Venerable Reincarnation felt that he, an Immortal Emperor, was not ordinary even if he became a beast, so he deliberately increased the difficulty for him.

After moving the things he had obtained into the tent closest to the burial ground, which was also the tent where the Yin Qi passed by, Song Shi opened the expired compressed biscuits and ate a few to fill his stomach. Then, he formed a seal.

The soil beside him suddenly shook. The two zombies bounced up and jumped stiffly behind Song Shi's tent.

Song Shi picked up the shovel and dug a hole beside him to hide the two zombies. If there was really danger, he could directly summon them and use them.

After doing this, he found Brother Cha, who was still patrolling. “Do you have anti-inflammatory medicine? I'm injured.”

No one cared about their injuries as cannon fodder. However, he believed that Brother Cha and the others must have something to survive here.

“Kid, you're really not polite. You just asked for medicine.” Brother Cha glared at Song Shi angrily. “Do you know that medicine is the most precious here? The nutrient fluid is secondary.”

“Then give me a portion of nutrient fluid? Those compressed biscuits are really not nutritious.”

Song Shi did not stand on ceremony and said seriously, “I'll return it to you tenfold.”

Brother Cha sized up Song Shi, and Spade and Stone also looked over.

Brother Cha chuckled. “Damn it, this is the first time I've met such a confident new cannon fodder like you. I don't think your body is strong. Where did you get your confidence from?”

Song Shi pointed at his head, meaning that he had experience. As long as he converted 1/10,000 of this experience, he could become a powerhouse.

Brother Cha thought that Song Shi was talking about his brain and laughed. “Interesting, I can give you some anti-inflammatory medicine and nutrient fluid, but I don't want ten times the reward. I want ten thousand times the reward.”

He did not expect Song Shi to really repay him ten thousand times. He only said that to recruit Song Shi and make him work for him.

Song Shi thought for a moment and nodded. “No problem.”

10,000 times was indeed a little too much, but he was too short of things now.

At this moment, the stab to his chest was very serious. If not for the fact that he knew medicine and had dealt with it through acupuncture and other methods, he would not have been able to dig a hole and bury the corpse.

“Stone, give him a tab of anti-inflammatory medicine, a roll of gauze, and three tubes of nutrient fluid.”

Brother Cha instructed the honest Stone and patted Song Shi meaningfully. “Kid, don't die too early. I'll suffer a huge loss.”

“I won't.”
Song Shi did not believe that he would die so easily with a rifle and the protection of two fearless zombies.

Stone returned to the tent and quickly brought back a cloth bag and threw it to Song Shi. He buzzed, “You can use anti-inflammatory medicine internally or externally. I gave you a little more alcohol. Remember to disinfect your wounds when you treat them.”

Song Shi glanced at Stone. This person was tall and silent. He did not expect him to be large on the outside but careful on the inside.

“Thank you. I'll rest first.”

He cupped his fists at the three of them and turned to leave.

He felt a little emotional. The guy who sent him here looked down on him as cannon fodder. He did not expect that these people who were also cannon fodder would be willing to believe him.

With their abilities, if they were not in the cannon fodder camp, they would have developed well outside.

“Brother Cha, you actually think so highly of him.”

Spade frowned. “With his skinny appearance, he might not be able to live here for long.”

“Were you as confident as him when you first came?” Brother Cha asked.

“What if he's pretending?” Spade pouted.

“Hehe, I'm very good at judging people. He's definitely capable. Even if he's pretending, it's still his ability to fool me.”

Brother Cha chuckled. “Besides, what he wants isn't that rare. If it's profitable, why don't we take a gamble?”

He glanced at the two, answering, “We're all cannon fodder. We can't get out by conventional means. We can only bet that someone is powerful enough. If we help him now, he might have the ability to help us in the future.”

Stone nodded. “He armed himself after getting the items. This means that he's very familiar with these things.”

“Did you see that? Stone is more observant than you.”

Brother Cha smiled. “Next will depend on his performance.”

Song Shi returned to the tent and took out anti-inflammatory medicine. He ate two pills and took one after disinfecting the wound. Then, he took a sip of the nutrient fluid.

This thing's energy density was very high. Song Shi felt his body warm after drinking it. He immediately sat cross-legged on the wooden board and calmed his mind before starting to refine essence into Qi.

Now, this body did not have any spiritual root that allowed him to directly enter the Qi Refinement and Soul Transformation realm. He could only be like Big Smart and walk the path of entering the Dao through martial arts.

Martial arts was very particular about the foundation of the body, but he could not care less at this moment. Even if his Essence Qi was damaged, he had to cultivate forcefully. He had to have strength first before thinking of a way to make up for his shortfall in the future.

As someone who had been through this before, cultivation was extremely simple for him. Not long after, he began to condense the little Essence Qi in his body into his Dantian.
