Chapter 197: Chapter 187: Corpse Ghost
After some brief consideration, Ye Yun finished assigning the personnel.
Currently, the main shelter was the strongest, followed by Base No. 2. The weakest, naturally, was the recently established Blood Saber Factory.
Of course, Ye Yun was confident that even the weakest location, the Blood Saber Factory, was likely no worse than some of the other managers’ shelters.
With the most critical recruitment complete, the tasks ahead were much simpler.
The different members just needed to train in an orderly fashion according to their abilities.
While they trained, Ye Yun didn’t neglect the shelter’s resource situation.
The exchange had seen a lot of new blueprints these past few days.
To diversify the goods he had on hand, Ye Yun also took the time to buy quite a few.
While the selling price of most blueprints probably wouldn’t even cover their production costs, there were a few exceptional ones among them.
[Lucky Heart Guard (Blue)]
[Production Requirements]:
[Power: 10] [10/10]
[Construction Robot: 1] [1/1]
[Basic Component Requirements]:
[Titanium Alloy Plate (Blue)] x1 [0/1]
[D-Grade Radiation Core (Blue)] x1 [1/1]
[Moonstone (Green)] x1 [0/1]
[Standard Metal Block (Green)] x3 [1/3]
[Intact Magnetic Pole (Green)] x4 [1/4]
...
[Lucky Heart Guard (Blue)]
[Defense: 10]
[Provides special protection for the heart. Cannot defend other organs.]
[Has a chance to prevent a fatal blow.]
[Durability: 100%]
The item’s stats weren’t high, but its special property was very powerful.
Of course, the most important thing was that its crafting cost wasn’t too high. Items like this were quite popular on the exchange.
Ye Yun habitually opened the exchange to see if there was anything he needed, but after a look around, he closed it with some frustration.
There were plenty of good things on the exchange now, but many were priced with an absurd markup.
After all, after so many rounds of crises, the managers who didn’t know what they were doing had long been filtered out.
The ones who remained were all shrewd individuals. Unless they ran into an emergency or some special event, they would never sell their good items on the cheap.
Closing the exchange, Ye Yun opened the alliance system and typed in the alliance chat box.
Ye Yun: [My brothers, have any of you heard of something called a Corpse Ghost?]
After a short wait, the other members of the alliance started popping up.
Seman: [Corpse Ghost? Where did you hear about that?]
Sima Yue: [I think I have a vague memory of it, but I can’t recall the specifics. It seems to be related to radiation.]
Lei Hu: [Corpse Ghost? You ran into them? Are they some kind of monster?]
Ye Yun: [We were attacked by Corpse Ghosts in Heishui Town. There were quite a few of them.]
Seman: [You guys have terrible luck. Corpse Ghosts are no joke.]
Sima Yue: [I remember now. Corpse Ghosts are definitely related to radiation. They have high levels of radiation inside them, and anyone bitten or scratched by them will also get infected.]
Lei Hu: [We haven’t encountered any over here yet, but hearing you say that, we’ll have to be more vigilant too.]
Ye Yun: [Do any of you know how to deal with Corpse Ghosts?]
Seman: [I’ve only heard one of my shelter members mention them in passing. I don’t know the specifics of how to handle them. If you need, I can go ask around for you.]
Sima Yue: [Are they really real? I thought they were just something like an urban legend.]
Lei Hu: [If getting scratched or bitten by them causes infection, then as long as we kill them all before they can attack us, there shouldn’t be much of a problem, right?]
Seeing Lei Hu’s message, the corner of Ye Yun’s mouth twitched slightly.
’What a reliable idea.’
It was clear, however, that these people didn’t know much about Corpse Ghosts. This was probably because they weren’t as numerous as other mutated creatures.
Ye Yun: [Alright, thanks, everyone. I’m going to go ask some other people.]
Seman: [No need to be polite. We’re all here to help each other.]
Ye Yun closed the alliance chat and posted the same question in the public chat room.
Ye Yun posed his question about Corpse Ghosts in the public chat room, hoping to get some useful information from a wider range of managers.
[Hey everyone, have any of you heard of something called a Corpse Ghost? I was attacked by them while exploring, and there were quite a few.]
The managers in the public chat room quickly responded to Ye Yun’s question.
[Corpse Ghosts? I think I’ve heard of them. Aren’t they those stiff-moving monsters with blood-red bodies?]
[I have a vague impression too, but I’ve never run into one. Do you know how to deal with them?]
[Corpse Ghosts are extremely dangerous. They have high levels of radiation in their bodies, and people who are bitten or scratched by them will also get infected.]
[I heard Corpse Ghosts are afraid of fire. Using flame weapons on them is very effective.]
[Besides fire, their joints are relatively weak. Attacking their joints can immobilize them.]
[Low-level Corpse Ghosts aren’t actually that much of a threat. As long as you don’t let them get close, they’re not that different from other mutated creatures. But I’ve heard that some high-level Corpse Ghosts are like superhumans—they have special abilities and are terrifyingly strong.]
[Corpse Ghosts have high internal radiation levels. You could try using a radiation detector to locate them. That might help.]
Ye Yun carefully read every reply. Although most of the information wasn’t very specific, these clues were precious to him.
Ye Yun: [Thanks for all the replies, everyone. If anyone has more information or an effective method for dealing with them, please let me know. I’m willing to trade resources or components for it.]
