Survival in the game world begins with Biochemical 2

Chapter 230 Selecting a shelter and meeting scavengers by chance

In the ruins of the villa, in the living room on the first floor, two deserters were still talking.

"Hey, Robert, do you really think that boy can do it?"

"...Bartor, I don't need to tell you to understand that the three of us alone can't survive in this hellish place. Although that guy is a bit naive, he still has some skills."

"As long as he finds an opportunity to get some civilian blood on his hands, everything will be easy to explain."

"It makes sense, let's do it. If it doesn't work, at worst, kill him and find someone else."

But at this moment, there was a sudden rush of footsteps on the second floor above the two of them.

The two deserters sitting at the table suddenly stood up: "What's going on? Vanga!? Are you there?"

"Roman? Where is the person!"

"——Someone has invaded!"

They raised their guns without hesitation, pushed out the door one after another, and walked along the stairs to the second floor to explore. While advancing slowly, he also shouted the names of his companions.

no respond.

The two looked at each other, and with great vigilance, they carefully opened the door to the second floor.

"Squeak-"

Bartol, who was walking in front, carefully turned on the light, but nothing appeared.

He had just breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to say something to Robert behind him, but when he turned his head, he saw Robert being dragged into the shadows downstairs by a dark figure.

Bartol: "!?"

"Rob..."

He subconsciously wanted to shout, but suddenly another figure came out of the room on the second floor. He rushed forward before he was prepared and stabbed his neck with a knife!

Bartol staggered forward a few steps, turned his head, and saw clearly that the person who stabbed him was Roman.

He covered his throat, making a "gurgling" sound in his mouth, and wanted to raise his gun to shoot, but suddenly a gray light flashed, and Li You appeared beside him at some point, holding the original sword that had been transformed into a dagger. The gun was cut down with one sword.

"puff--"

Blood spurted out like a fountain, Bator's right hand and the shotgun in his hand fell to the ground together, and he himself fell down with death in silence.

Li You shook off the blood on his sword and left a message: "Don't waste bullets on dead people."

"By the way, Fan Jia has already taken the first step."

With a clang, the bloody fruit knife in Roman's hand fell to the ground, and he covered his mouth, his throat trembling, as if he wanted to vomit.

Li You was about to speak, but then he saw blood spilled on the ground.

"Ah...I forgot about this again..."

……

Halfway through the night.

At the door of the church, there were three or four soldiers surrounding them, yelling and cursing at the people in the church to open the door.

These soldiers were heavily armed, although the equipment was good and bad. Two of them were carrying military rifles, and the leader was still wearing a body armor and helmet. But the remaining two people only had a pistol in their hands and no armor.

The leading soldier knocked on the church door with all his might and cursed: "Old immortal, open the door quickly! Don't force us to take action!"

In the church, Aggie held his rifle and desperately resisted the urge to rush out and kill all the people.

She now understands the background of the city and knows that the people outside are from the government forces. Without understanding their purpose here, taking action hastily may bring disaster to the church.

Father Orek stood at the door and signaled to Aggie again, asking her to hide downstairs first, then took a deep breath and opened the door.

"Hey! You're moving too slowly, old man! Do you want this church to be turned into pieces?"

Father Orek apologized profusely and handed over a few high-quality cigarettes, which made the leading soldier look better.

"You know the truth! We came here to ask you something. Do you know which group of people attacked the nearby flower shop?"

The priest was stunned: "Flower shop?"

The soldier's eyes changed: "You know?"

The priest waved his hands vigorously: "No, no, no, I've never heard of a flower shop or anything, and I don't know who moved it."

The soldier snorted and said without asking more, "Really? Then remember, if there is any relevant information, notify us immediately. The military never hesitates to reward whistleblowers!"

The priest nodded repeatedly: "Absolutely." He handed over a few more cigarettes and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Father Orek successfully calmed the soldiers, and they left quickly after asking for some scattered supplies.

"Guys, please walk slowly!"

Seeing their figures disappear into the darkness at the corner of the street, the priest also breathed a sigh of relief.

He said to the church downstairs: "You can come out now."

Aiji came up from downstairs, frowning slightly, and his movements were exactly the same as Li You: "Why are those soldiers asking for information about the flower shop?"

Father Orek smiled bitterly and said: "There are many possibilities. But if we talk about the worst case scenario, it is probably that these people are the bosses behind the flower shop."

Aiji's face completely darkened: "Government troops who call themselves official troops do this kind of thing in the city?"

She almost blurted out that it was up to her to kill them, but after all, considering the limitations of this world and the possibility of evil guests coming here again if she left, Aggie remained silent.

She sat down a little gloomily, and Marco and Livia, who were ready to move downstairs, also came up and asked, "Is there no news from Li You yet?"

Aiji looked at the time and said, "Maybe there was a little accident. It's quite common. There should be news in a while."

Li You's explanation to others is that Aiji is his companion and comrade-in-arms and is worthy of trust. So at this time, when Marco and Livia saw her unworried expressions, they felt relieved.

The two sat down next to Aggie and waited peacefully.

And sure enough, not long after this time, there was another knock on the door of the church, but it was regular and neat.

Aiji immediately jumped up and went to open the door. It was Li You outside.

Li You said to everyone: "Let's go, let's move."

Marco and Livia were already prepared. Marco dragged out his backpack from the pile of debris nearby. Livia also stood up and said, "I'm ready."

Father Orek watched them walk out of the church, and finally said to Li: "If you need anything, just tell me and I will help you as much as possible."

Li You nodded and said, "I will."

"Be careful along the way and may the Lord bless you!"

On the way to the ruins of the villa, Ai Ji quietly mentioned to Li You: "A few government soldiers came just now."

After hearing what she said, Li You's face didn't look good either.

"Is it possible that that flower shop is really related to the government forces? Then the level of their madness is really beyond my imagination."

He thought for a while and finally said: "We can observe this slowly. Now let's ensure their safety."

Aiji also agreed with this. She and Li You worked in tandem, and with Aiji's perception ability, they quickly arrived in front of the ruins of the villa.

Seeing Li You and others appearing, Roman immediately poked his head out from the balcony on the second floor and waved.

After everyone entered, Roman looked at Li You and said impatiently: "You are finally back! I have roughly cleaned this place, where is the food you promised me?"

Li You waved his hand, so Marco took out a can from his backpack and handed it over.

Roman took the can, opened it, and immediately ate it hungrily.

Marco also kindly reminded: "Eat slowly! If you haven't eaten much, it's not okay to eat so fast all of a sudden!"

Roman actually knew this truth, but he was really hungry and took two big mouthfuls before slowing down.

"...Finally some decent food."

Not long ago, Li You realized after chopping off Bator's hand that he had gradually developed a more informal fighting style, chopping off his hands and feet at will. As a result, blood spilled all over the floor and the villa was destroyed. Got a mess.

But the time was limited every night and he couldn't bear the trouble. In desperation, Li You could only let Roman stay here for a brief cleaning and promised to give him food when he brought someone back.

As for the original military cans or other ingredients in the villa, they were naturally taken away by Li You in advance.

After seeing Li You's method of quickly and swiftly killing a deserter, Roman was a little afraid of him, so he didn't refute and obediently stayed in the ruins of the villa and cleaned up the bodies of several deserters.

As for the body, he threw it in the backyard and planned to dig a hole and bury it when he had time.

On the first floor of the villa, Li You simply introduced himself to everyone and then began to assign tasks.

"Marco, go and search this villa carefully, collect all the useful materials, and store them in categories."

"Aggie, please keep watch."

"Roman, if you're done eating, come over and help me."

As for Livia, Li You directly asked her to go upstairs to rest by herself. Only Roman complained but did not dare to speak. Everyone else had no objections.

Livia herself wanted to help, but Li You persuaded her by saying, "It's most important for you to rest for two days now, and it won't be too late to help when the situation stabilizes."

Marco began to search around the villa, and Aggie went to the balcony with a gun to guard. Li You, on the other hand, carried a suitcase that no one knew when he had it in his hand, and took Roman with him to the basement.

The basement of the villa is very large, and the large room in the center is the cell where the owner was imprisoned and starved to death. However, his body has been removed by Roman in advance, and the place is still clean now.

Li You went directly into the innermost room of the basement, moved a lot of debris piled here outside the door, then placed the wooden toolbox with dark silver edges in his hand in the room, and put it in the room. Expand.

Following Li You's movements, the tool box opened to 180 degrees, and the two sides merged into a tabletop, with four table legs supporting it.

And a lot of messy props in the toolbox were also displayed in front of Li You and Roman.

Roman was stunned: "What is this?"

Li You smiled and said, "It's a portable workbench."

This wooden toolbox is the reward he drew after coming to this world.

But to be precise, this is actually its upgraded state.

The system prompt at that time read like this:

[Contact with the residents of this world has been completed, the system is being updated, and new world rewards will be issued soon. 】

[Please note that due to differences in world background, this reward draw will be changed to fixed props. 】

[Received: Basic workbench. 】

[Basic workbench: A basic workbench for creating various items, which can produce some basic functional objects. It cannot be moved once placed and can be upgraded. 】

This thing is the workbench that comes with the game at the beginning. Li You was already satisfied with it, but he didn't expect it to resonate with another item in his backpack.

[Workbench Suitcase: A large wooden suitcase, which can be extended into a wooden desk workbench after opening, and comes with various basic props. At the same time, the raw materials for crafting can also be stored in the suitcase. 】

This is the portable suitcase workbench obtained by Biochemical IV. Although it has the function of transforming into a wooden table, Li You has basically never used it. He only uses it to store some messy raw materials, such as a pile of scattered materials from the Sekiro World.

But after he drew the new world reward, the system popped up a prompt.

【Ding! 】

[It has been detected that the props "Basic Workbench" and "Workbench Suitcase" you hold are similar in nature and can be fused. Is it integrated? 】

Although Li You was surprised, he certainly couldn't miss this opportunity for free prostitution, so he immediately clicked "Yes".

So the two workbench props merged into the new suitcase.

[Workbench Suitcase (Enhanced): A large wooden suitcase that can be extended into a wooden desk workbench after opening. It comes with various basic props and can also produce many functional objects. At the same time, the raw materials for crafting can also be stored in the suitcase. 】

[Built-in functions: basic workbench, metal workbench, pharmaceutical refining components, raw material storage box. Can be upgraded and expanded. 】

[Storage raw materials:...]

Isn't this just right? Even Li You took a look and found that the current suitcase workbench also has the function of the metal workbench in the game. Doesn't that mean that if the workbench continues to be upgraded, he can still do blacksmithing on this table? ?

Is there hope that his almost forgotten life skills can finally be picked up again?

Li You was unusually looking forward to it. But of course, that is all for the future, and the top priority now is to convert the villa into a shelter.

It has to be said that the few deserters who occupied this place had no interest in building a stronghold. They probably had more than one hiding place, so there was no need to expend such effort.

In short, the original owner of this villa obviously installed a lot of defensive measures in the building, but after it was breached by this group of people, it was never maintained and now it is in tatters.

Li You and the others need to take care of this.

However, Li You can be said to be very familiar with this. After all, similar things have been done in Harlan.

His explanation to Roman was: "This is a portable workbench specially equipped for elite members of our organization. Although it looks inconspicuous, it is actually the crystallization of technology."

"With it, we can make a lot of things to survive this war."

In the game, there is a simple workbench that can knock out a lot of necessary props at the beginning. But obviously, the fact that so many things can be built with just one workbench is more biased towards the game setting.

Li You also asked Marco if he could knock out something like a metal workbench with the necessary materials, and he complained that "human beings can't build that kind of thing with bare hands."

This was actually not unexpected by Li You, and it had no impact on him who had obtained the workbench suitcase.

In addition to raw material storage, this suitcase did not have any special functions that were counterintuitive, so Li You took it out generously.

After all, in this world, a workbench is a must for building a shelter.

After opening the workbench, Li You began to think about what else was needed to use this villa as a refuge.

Bed, this is a necessity. There are two on the third floor, but they are not enough and they really need to be rebuilt.

Repairing holes is also important. A corner of the third floor of the villa was indeed damaged by artillery shells, leaving a huge hole. There will be bandits plundering every night in Berggren. If they notice the weakness of this villa, they will definitely pounce on it and take a bite.

Li You is not afraid of a few gangsters, but being too conspicuous is not good, not to mention that continued encounters with thieves are not good for the mental health of his companions.

Holes need to be mended.

Then there are other functional facilities, such as water purification filters, simple stoves, mouse traps, indoor herbal gardens... Depending on their importance, you can choose to build or not build them.

As for the first necessary functional facility for newcomers, the metal workbench, there is no need for it. The suitcase workbench comes with its own metal tools and equipment, which is very convenient.

So Li You fumbled under the workbench table twice, then stretched out his hand and pulled out the hidden metal tabletop, turning it into a second tabletop.

Roman: "?"

Can this thing transform?

Li Youyou: "I'm going to see how Marco's search is going. Roman, there are metal materials here. Please use the tool table to knock a shovel out."

Roman: "???"

He quickly stopped Li You who was about to leave: "Wait a minute, I won't do it!"

Li You: "...ah?"

Roman looked at him with a look of disbelief on his face and became a little angry: "I'm a soldier, not a craftsman! You give me a pile of iron blocks and you want me to make a shovel? I can't even use this... this welding gun!"

Li You immediately reacted, okay, co-creating this world and ripping out the most basic skills of the characters and throwing them away?

Can’t you use a metal workbench or something without professional skills?

Although it does make sense if you think about it carefully. After all, in the original game, except for children, other people, regardless of gender or background, can use simple tools and unpretentious materials to knock out crowbars, saw blades, axes, and even... Tinkering with guns and forging daggers is outrageous.

But if that's the case, wouldn't he have to do all the basic work?

Li You raised his hand to his forehead, feeling that he was starting to have a headache.

Recall, which character in the game has relevant skills?

Carpenter Marlin?

"Oh, okay." He sighed, "Go and see if Marco has done it. Let him come to me when he's done, and leave this to me."

Watching Roman go upstairs, Li You shook his head, sat at the workbench, and started making a shovel with limited tools.

Fortunately, his life skills are related to blacksmithing, and he can also use modern tools.

"I didn't expect that as soon as I said I could pick up life skills, I would start working right away. Let me see, welding gun, circular saw, angle grinder... Okay, that's barely enough."

Li You rummaged through the materials at hand and started processing.

In fact, for a novice at the beginning, the first tool should definitely be to make a crowbar, but for Li You, he always relies on the infinitely durable primitive gun to solve the problem, or directly uses a pistol.

The production process went smoothly. Li You used limited tools and materials to successfully knock out an extremely rough shovel.

There are obvious welding marks on the shovel, and even the steel in different parts is colorful.

"...Although it's ugly, it's really not my fault this time. The conditions are too limited."

Li You put a wooden handle on the shovel and it was completed.

"Okay, let's give you a name."

After all, it was the first large-scale prop he had built.

"Just call for cleaning..."

"-Don't name a shovel!"

A familiar voice came from behind. Li You turned around and saw Ai Ji standing there.

"How did you come?"

Aggie complained: "Because I changed my shift, I came to take a look, and I saw you naming a shovel."

"Don't you know how bad your naming skills are? Let alone naming such a broken shovel."

Li You was dissatisfied: "What's wrong with my naming skills? Also, this is not a shabby shovel that will be broken into pieces after just two uses as you said."

Aiji: "Ask Yuzu about this...and I didn't go into detail."

"Knock knock knock."

Marco stuck his head out at the entrance of the room: "Um...excuse me?"

Li You looked at him: "Ah, Marco, you came just in time. Here, this is the shovel I just made. Take it."

"Oh, that's a big help!" Marco took it, "It comes in handy for digging holes."

"How is the search going in the villa?" Li You asked again.

Marco replied: "I have searched everything in this building, including the collapsed ceiling on the third floor, and found some usable materials from inside."

"I heard Roman say, do you have a workbench here? Then maybe I can help make some simple furniture. I can still do this."

Li You was very happy after hearing this: "That's just right! Let me take a look... Then please deal with the materials first, and then go and plug the holes in the roof later."

Marco patted his chest: "Leave it to me."

It is no longer possible to repair the collapsed area on the third floor of the ruined villa, but the door to the adjacent room and the hole connecting to the second floor still need to be blocked, otherwise it will be easy for someone to break in.

Just like when Li You sneaked in here.

As an experienced scavenger, Marco also knew the importance of repairing the holes in the shelter. He was very active in his work. He quickly finished processing the wooden boards and nails on the workbench, and then went to the third floor with Li You. After banging and banging, the hole was successfully sealed.

Although it's still not strong, at least it won't be touched quietly.

At the same time, they also cleared away the rubble in the collapsed room and set up a sentry point here. The guard's companions could stand here and get a better view and a safer distance than the second-floor balcony.

After the completion, Marco wiped his sweat and looked at his results with satisfaction: "Very good! Now our shelter's defense has increased again!"

Li You also smiled and planned to say something to encourage him, but Aiji suddenly said: "Wait...it seems someone is coming, from the other side of the street."

"Oh?"

Li Yue asked: "Just after the sentry was repaired, did the test product come to the door?"

Marco opened his eyes wide and looked in the direction Aggie said: "...I didn't see anything?"

Ai Ji was shocked and said quickly: "Of course! I am an ace intelligence agent! This is my special skill!"

Marco had no doubts: "I see... No wonder you and Li You are partners."

Aiji wiped a cold sweat, but Li You didn't react at all. He just picked up his anti-equipment sniper rifle, activated the infrared detection scope, and looked in the direction pointed by Aiji.

"I saw it. It was probably a scavenger, not a robber... He was coming towards us."

The man quickly approached the villa, and Roman, who was standing guard on the balcony on the second floor, immediately spotted him.

"Who are you--!"

The man was also startled and raised his head to look at Roman.

It was at this time that Li You saw his face clearly and was startled.

The man raised his hands: "Please don't shoot! I'm just a scavenger. I don't know anyone is here! I'm leaving now!"

In fact, Roman didn't have a gun in his hand, only a wooden stick used as a weapon, but the man didn't know that.

He raised his hands and backed away slowly: "I don't mean any harm, I'll leave immediately!"

Seeing him like this, Roman's tense nerves relaxed a little.

But the next moment, Roman only felt a dark shadow flash before his eyes, and Li You jumped directly from the third floor, rolled on the ground, quickly got up, and walked towards the man.

Roman: "??"

He felt that he had been confused a lot since meeting Li You. He seemed to have no idea what this man was thinking.

The man was also startled by Li You who suddenly jumped down. Seeing him walking towards him, the man did not hesitate, turned around and started running!

"and many more--!"

Although the guy in the coat kept shouting from behind, the man had no intention of slowing down. After all, not to mention anything else, just the big gun behind the guy was enough to keep him at least a hundred meters away from the other party.

Li You was helpless when he saw the man running away, but he still chased after him.

In order not to violate the rules of the system, Li You did not dare to run at full speed, but even so, he still quickly closed the distance between him and the man.

Seeing Li You getting closer and closer, the man panicked a little. While throwing all kinds of junk parts in his backpack at Li You, he ran towards the square on the other side in a panic.

Of course, this little debris can't stop Li You, it can't even slow him down. But when he saw the direction in which the man was running, he couldn't help but be surprised.

"That's over there..."

Sniper center!

Li You clicked his tongue and said to himself: "There is nothing we can do!"

He raised his hand, looked at the target, and shot the grappling hook!

The grappling hook flew more than ten meters and accurately landed on the man's calf, leaving only a few scratches on the side of his leg.

Li You pulled the grappling hook and put the man to the ground.

The man was about to struggle, but the next moment, with the sound of a gunshot, a bullet hit the ground not far in front of him, leaving a small crater.

The man immediately stopped moving.

Li You took the opportunity to come to him, pressed behind the building that pulled him aside, and deliberately unlocked the grappling hook with his hands, and then put away the hook lock bit by bit.

The man looked at Li You: "What...what do you want?"

Li You did not answer immediately, but looked at his face carefully, and then nodded silently. As expected, he did not recognize the wrong person.

This man is the second God of War in Bergglen City, a true God of War who can kill people at will without breaking down.

Li You stretched out his hand to him and said, "I have something to ask you."

man:"…?"
