Chapter 97 Aid from the Tower (5k)

Li You had thought of the organization's name before.

The meaning is also very simple. The game world he is currently in is called "Dying Light", which literally means "dying light".

The organization he established here is called Lightkeeper, which can also be translated as people who keep the light.

You (Light) are going to die, right?
TM stand up for me, don't die!
I'm looking at you!

——By the way, thank you to the fire prevention girl for the inspiration.

Racine thought about the meaning of the organization's name, and his eyes quickly lit up: "What a name!"

"Les's power is huge, and zombies are rampant at night, and the survivors in Harlan are unable to resist."

"And if the tower is the light for the survivors in Harran, then we are the ones guarding this light!"

Li You glanced at Racine with some surprise: "Okay, young man, you did a good job in reading comprehension. I must have done very well in school, right?"

He smiled and patted Racine on the shoulder, encouraging: "That's right! But you must remember that the light we want to protect is not only the tower, but also the hope in the hearts of all survivors in Harlan!"

"Driving away Les is just the first step. Next, we need to bring light back to the survivors of Haran, letting them see that they can survive in Haran even if they don't join the Les gang. And he’s still alive and well!”

"Our final goal is to save Harlan!"

Most of the tower members brought by La Xin are young guys similar to him, who are driven and enthusiastic.

So after hearing Li You's words, their eyes burned with unprecedented fire, and they all responded: "Understood——!!"

The boys in the tower were extremely excited, and the four people who originally belonged to the Rice Gang had different expressions.

Deke, a young man, seemed to be infected by his peers, and he seemed to want to join them.The middle-aged man Yuri looked thoughtful and said nothing.As for old Aiden, he was looking at the young people intently with envy and relief on his face.

Karim was looking at Li You, cheers echoed in his ears, and he murmured in a low voice: "Is this the real purpose of the leader? Really, really..."

He originally wanted to say childish, but maybe he was gradually infected by the atmosphere of the scene, and his eyes were slightly blurred.

"It's... so noisy and annoying." Finally, Karim suddenly laughed, "It's good to be young. Being with young people makes me feel more energetic."

He completely forgot that he was only in his thirties.In an environment like Haaland, especially after staying under Rice for a long time, Karim always thought that he had lost the emotions that once filled his chest.

He looked at Li You again, his eyes lighting up slightly.He patted Decker on the shoulder and looked at him.

This young man, Dike, is very smart. After all, he has been with the Rice Gang for a few days. He immediately understood what Karim meant: now is the time to show his loyalty!
So he lost his reserve and rushed into the tower members, raising his hands in the air and shouting:

"Boss Li You, we respect and love you!!"

Li You: "..."

Karim: "..."

Decker: "?"

Did he say the wrong thing?

……

On a drizzly afternoon, the Light Guard organization was established in the Stuffed Turtle Supermarket in Harlan City, but Li You's expansion is far from over.

He has formulated a complete set of plans to gradually expand his power and recruit troops.

Of course, when a tall building rises from the ground, their first step must be to stabilize the base they just laid.

Li You waved his hand, and everyone entered the supermarket, divided their work and cooperated to clean up the zombie remains in the supermarket, and then tidy up the messy hall.

The organization had just been established, and everyone was very enthusiastic. Even Karim and the older Aiden stepped in to help.

Everyone worked together and quickly sorted out an outline of the interior of the supermarket. The shelves, tables, chairs, and a bunch of miscellaneous items that had been piled up in a mess before were all sorted into categories.

However, to establish a safe zone, it is not enough to have high walls and strong doors. One more important thing is needed.

Just as the supermarket was being sorted out, Li You received a radio communication.

A friend is coming.

It must be said that Bracken, as the boss of the tower, was also foresighted. In addition to the parkrunners and craftsmen who came with Racine to join him, he also sent a second group of people.

There were only two people in this group, and they were all familiar faces to Li You.

Jed, and Alfie, the Towers' professional electrician.

Needless to say, Jade, in addition to escorting, she came to see Li You and her brother Racine.Alfie is very interesting.

Alfie is an unshaven middle-aged man with a foul face, wearing a green shirt and a military green peaked cap. The colors on his body make people feel festive.

Putting aside his unique hobbies, Alfie is very important.He has specialized skills and is solely responsible for the tower's electrical and building maintenance, making him one of the tower's most critical logisticians.

So of course, he was only called over by Bracken to help, and he had to return the person when it was over.But taking the risk to send him out to help Li You is enough to prove Bracken's sincerity.

After Jade greeted Li You, he immediately found Racine and seemed to want to see if he was injured, which made Racine very irritated.

Fortunately, Jade seemed to remember what Li You told her and didn't care about Racine. Instead, she came to find Li You and talk about business.

"We brought you some spare UV lamps from the tower. These are necessary supplies to set up a safe zone. Alfie will help install and deal with the power supply, but we can only stay for one night at most."

Li You nodded: "It doesn't matter, this has helped me a lot. Thank you, and thank Bracken for me."

Jade just smiled, but Alfie, who had been caught as a young man, was a little dissatisfied: "Originally, the stock of ultraviolet lamps was not enough. I wanted to use them to strengthen the defense line of the tower, but now I have to use them to build for a young boy. It’s for the safe area. I don’t know how many days this safe area can last..."

Jed touched him with his elbow and told him to stop talking, but Alfie just lowered his voice and muttered, but he didn't know that Li You heard his dirty words clearly.

Li You felt funny.Alfie is indeed an old acquaintance of his, because in the game, he will assign two quite difficult tasks to the protagonist.

One of them is called Voltage, which requires players to run away repeatedly to restore the power supply in the city.

Running away in itself is fine, but the last part of the mission requires you to go to the power station to activate the switch at night, and that power station is full of zombies even during the day, let alone at night, which is very deadly.

As for the other one, the follow-up mission of Voltage, will require players to climb the broken Bridge of Sin - the bridge from the Harlan ghetto to the old city.

The player has to climb to the top of the elevated bridge and help him get back the high-power searchlight above. He wants to strengthen the security of the tower.

The problem, says Alfie, is that you can't tell which bulbs are good during the day, so you have to go at night...

And the viaduct of the Bridge of Sin is really high.

Therefore, Li You was deeply impressed by this tower electrician, and Li You had long been used to seeing his stinky expression.

But putting aside these old grievances, Alfie's professional skills are indeed excellent and he has always been diligent in the tower, so Li You still admires him and does not intend to argue with him.

Alfie complained, but he also knew that if he didn't get the ultraviolet lamp as soon as possible, everyone would be in danger when night came.

So even though he was dissatisfied, he went to the control room on the roof to adjust the circuit and install the ultraviolet lamp.

Jade looked at Li Youzheng's stronghold, which was gradually being maintained in an orderly manner, and sighed: "We have made plans for this supermarket before, but neither we nor the Rice Gang could pass through the blockade of the corpses. Unexpectedly You did it so quickly, you really surprised me again and again.”

"I heard from Racine and the others that you named the organization 'Light Keeper'? What a good name. I hope everything goes well for you."

Jed looked at the scene again and said, "Then I'm going to help Alfie too. It will be done as soon as possible and it will be safe as soon as possible."

Jade went up to the roof. Li You looked at Yuzi, who was working as a hard-working porter outside, and calculated the time. After realizing that there was still time for him to move all the zombie remains outside the guardrail, he turned around and entered the supermarket.

Inside the supermarket, Karim was directing several people to move furniture and equipment and rearrange various rooms.

Although the members of the tower were slightly dissatisfied with him, a former member of the Rice Gang, giving orders, this was Li You's arrangement after all.

In addition, Karim has begun to use his abilities. He used Li You's name to establish initial prestige among the newcomers with a combination of firmness and softness, and managed them well.

Seeing this scene, Li You knew that he had indeed seen the right person.Since Karim and others are reliable enough, Li You doesn't need to worry about these little things.

He just told Karim the key arrangements he needed, such as what the room would be used for in the future, and asked him to arrange for people to guard the prisoners in the basement and pay attention to the situation behind the sealed door in the basement. The rest was all Leave it to Karim to decide.

At this point, Li You no longer had to worry about the basic establishment of the stronghold, so he stood in the corner and began to sort out his recent gains.

It has been several days since he came to Haran, but he has been busy doing his own things these days.Although the system also prompted him to complete several achievements, he did not take a closer look.

Now you can take a look.

The system opened and Li You took a rough scan. He had completed two achievements so far, and had several others in progress.

Completed achievements include:
[Congratulations on completing the achievement: Untouchable. 】

[Achievement content: Kill twenty plague demons in a row without taking any damage. 】

[Achievement reward: achievement points x 300, rifle silencer x 1. 】

……

[Congratulations on completing the achievement: Life-threatening Medicine. 】

[Achievement content: Obtain at least five boxes (5×28 bottles) of antiviral agents. 】

[Achievement reward: achievement points × 500, survival skill book × 1. 】

"Ok?"

Li You was slightly stunned. The first achievement was just a reward item, and the second one was a skill book. But why is there no level?
He planned to receive the reward props, but the system prompted him that there was insufficient space in his backpack and he needed to take out some props first.

Li You took some inventory and found that his backpack really couldn't fit in it, so he first took out props such as gas masks, mottled coins, and eggplant transformation cards that didn't take up space and could be carried around, and put them on his body.

Then I took out all the recovery supplies and prepared to package them together so that they would not occupy separate compartments.

After sorting it out, Li You took out two new props.

Needless to say, the silencer is produced by the system and has guaranteed quality. It can completely eliminate the sound of gunfire. Li You directly installed it on Springfield.

Then there was the survival skills book. Li You looked at it and discovered that the so-called "survival skills" originally referred to the survivor skill tree in the extinction game.

Basic ones include simple prop manufacturing, simple strengthening potion synthesis, and simple weapon manufacturing are also included.

But as you can tell from the name, no matter how advanced your skills are, you will probably only be able to make some "simple" props and potions. After all, they are just a branch of survival skills.

Then, there are no abilities such as increasing backpack space and improving bargaining skills.

Li You's evaluation is: It's been chipped a lot, but it's still usable.

But what surprised him was that the most critical "grappling hook mastery" among survivors' skills was actually there!
It's just at the top of the skill tree.

Then, skills are unlocked in the same way as in the game. You have to increase skill proficiency to gradually unlock them.

The only difference is that after learning his skill book, as the proficiency increases, all unlocks are passive and will be automatically unlocked level by level, unlike in the game where attribute points are obtained and can then be chosen by the player. Take the initiative to improve.

But the various little tricks in the survivor skills are already useful to Li You, not to mention the use of the top-notch grappling hook.

Li You couldn't help but feel excited: Since it is the grappling hook skill in the system skill book, it must not be the physical version of this world. It has to be the black technology grappling hook in the original game, right?

Then you shouldn’t inject (proficiency) heavily?
After learning how to use the grappling hook, I can also become Harlan’s Spider-Man!

So he used the skill book on the spot, and then saw a new item appear in the skill column.

[Survival Skills-Elementary: Proficiency (0/200)]

There is no rush for the next improvement.

After sorting out the recent gains, Li You then went to the long table that had just been cleared by the wall on one side of the hall, spread out a piece of paper, wrote down a few names, and then pondered over the names.

Racine happened to be passing by, and when he saw this scene, he came over very naturally and asked: "Brother Li You, what are you looking at?"

It seemed that he was taking the lead. The newcomers in the tower called him "Brother Li You," but Karim and others still called him the leader.

Li You didn't care what he was called. When he saw Racine approaching, he didn't hide it. He drew on the paper with a pen and said:

"This is the list I made. The people on it are all talents who have mastered a certain skill and are useful to us. I am sorting them according to the priority of the matter so that I can decide who to look for first and who to look for later."

Racine picked up the list and looked at it curiously, and read out the names on it: "Zaid, Kurt, Hansen, Alexei..."

He was a little surprised: "I know several of them, they are indeed talents... But Brother Li You, you have just arrived, how do you know these people?"

Li You smiled and did not explain, but Racine continued and saw a name, and was suddenly startled: "Huh? Christopher? Why is there him?"

Li You was also stunned: "Do you know him?"

Alexey and Kristoff are a father and son pair who work for Les and are Les's weapon craftsmen.

Alexey is getting older and all he wants is that his son is safe, so he commits himself to the Rais Gang and lives a life of fear.

Kristoff is still young and has a strong sense of justice in his heart. He does not want to help others do evil and has always wanted to join the tower and become a parkourer.

In the game, the protagonist Crane will meet them when he takes on Les's first mission, which is to repair the communication tower. The father and son live in the safe area under the communication tower that the mission is to repair.

This safe zone is not the one where Li Yougang settled in Harlan on his first night, but it is similar.

The second meeting was their side mission.

Kristoff finally couldn't bear the life of working for Les, so one day he sneaked out and joined the tower.And his father Alexei asked Crane to bring his son back.

When Crane returned to the tower to ask someone, he learned that Kristoff had become a parkour and was on a field mission.

And his guarantor was none other than Racine.

At that time, Crane complained: One young boy vouched for another.

In short, after experiencing some twists and turns, Crane found Kristoff. After persuasion, Kristoff promised Crane that if Crane persuaded his father to leave the Rice Gang and join the Tower, he would no longer be a parkour.

So Crane went back to find Alexei.

After jointly solving the Les Gang gangsters who came to make trouble, Alexei agreed to join the tower, and eventually became the weapons craftsman of the tower together with his son, staying in the room of electrician Alfie to build weapons for tower members.

This father and son are one of Li You's key targets, because the skills of Yuri he captured from the Rice Gang are really not trustworthy.

But originally, the father and son were ranked quite low.

Because their plot happened relatively late, and there were many people who might only see a corpse if Li You arrived late.

But unexpectedly, Racine actually knew Christopher?

"Why do you know him?"

"Um, um..." Racine didn't know how to reply for a moment, and whispered after a while, "Because Kristoff has just joined the tower, and I gave him the parkour test."

"And he came with me, No, he's the one moving the boxes over there."

Li You: "..."

Okay!The event is ahead of schedule!

The mission NPC even hit him in the face!
