C22 Trade

Zhou Guoqiang and Fann Qinghua nodded in agreement.

"That's right. This time, it's all thanks to our son. Otherwise, we would have either been eaten by the monsters or frozen to death."

"That's right. We were lucky enough to not go to the government to seek refuge. Otherwise, we would have definitely died."

The family surrounded the heater.

Although the temperature was still very low.

It was at least warmer than outside.

They did not starve, they had a place to stay, and they were not in any life-threatening danger.

The first wave of the ice age had cooled down, and they had passed it safely.

...

The next morning.

Before Zhou Heng woke up, a system notification suddenly rang out in his mind.

Congratulations to the host! You have successfully dodged the first cold air reward of the ice age. The system rewarded you with 200 survival points!"

"What?"

Zhou Heng, who was still confused, suddenly woke up when he heard the notification.

He had another system reward!

Then he could upgrade the shelter!

Zhou Heng beamed with joy.

He hurriedly opened the system panel.

Host: Zhou Heng.

Shelter Level: 5

Area: 780 square meters

Buildings: Research Base

Basic facilities level: 3

Defensive facilities level: 3

Unlocked: Waterproof System

Do you want to upgrade?

"Upgrade!"

Host: Zhou Heng

Shelter Level: 6

Area: 3,000 square meters

Buildings: Research Base!

Basic facilities level: 4

Defensive facilities level: 4

This time, the facilities of the shelter had been upgraded.

Whether it was the titanium alloy door, the waterproof system, or the ventilation system, all of them had been improved and upgraded.

Although the shelter did not have much of a change, the comfort of living there had already risen to a whole new level.

After upgrading the shelter, Zhou Heng upgraded the intelligent spark.

The mechanical being now not only had a strong combat strength, but it was also resistant to high temperature and cold. It could flexibly handle all kinds of special situations.

"Go out and take a look at the situation outside."

Zhou Heng let the Combat UAV fly out and returned with a projection of the situation outside.

There was no one within ten kilometers.

Within twenty kilometers, there were mountains of corpses.

When the Combat UAV flew to thirty kilometers, the scene projected back made Zhou Heng's mood very heavy.

The people who wanted to move yesterday had already been frozen into ice sculptures.

Many of them still had the fear on their faces before death.

Zhou Heng had seen the cold and warm of the world.

Even though Zhou Heng had seen the cold and warm of the world, he still felt emotional when he saw such a tragic scene.

This was really the nightmare of humans!

Zhou Heng controlled the Combat UAV to fly through the entire Ashveil.

What surprised Zhou Heng was that there were quite a lot of heat sensors.

This meant that there were still quite a few people living in Ashveil.

But at this moment, Zhou Heng received a radio signal from the Combat UAV, and it was sent through the Morse Code.

Fortunately, the system had the ability to automatically translate.

Otherwise, Zhou Heng might not be able to understand it.

"We have observed your UAV and are very interested in it. Therefore, we want to use electronic equipment, entertainment facilities, military supplies, and other resources to exchange for it."

"I hope you can agree. Otherwise, we will take tough measures."

The first sentence was a normal conversation, and the second sentence was a threat.

Zhou Heng sneered.

"Find them."

Zhou Heng turned the UAV around and tried to find the person who sent the signal with the heat sensor.

Suddenly, an anti-air missile flew towards the UAV.

Fortunately, Zhou Heng dodged in time.

Otherwise, the UAV would have crashed.

"Damn it!"

Zhou Heng frowned. He did not expect these people to have anti-air missiles!

"We don't have any hostility towards you!"

"We just want to do business with you."

"We have sufficient resources on our side, but we lack sufficient technological products. If you trade with us, we will win both sides."

They had clearly come prepared this time.

The conditions they proposed made it impossible for Zhou Heng to reject them!

Now, Zhou Heng was most worried about the issue of resources.

The conditions that these people proposed could solve his urgent need.

Zhou Heng narrowed his eyes. If he was alone, he would have nothing to fear.

But now, his parents were here.

Zhou Heng did not want them to starve.

Zhou Heng thought about it and decided to agree to their request.

However, Zhou Heng did not only want to conduct an ordinary transaction.

In this era, strength was the most important thing.

Zhou Heng sent a set of Morse Code to them through the system.

He and those people agreed to meet at the old department building at three o'clock in the afternoon.

After Zhou Heng finished his lunch, he drove alone out of the shelter.

At the same time, a fleet of cars in the east of the city was also heading towards the department building.

They drove combat vehicles, each of which was equipped with anti-slip chains and equipment to remove snow.

The people in the cars were all wearing uniforms.

However, they were all bloated.

They might have worn many layers of warm clothes.

Even so, their faces were still red and they were shivering from the cold.

"Are we really going to betray her?"

In the last car of the fleet, a young man asked suspiciously.

"Nonsense."

A man slapped the back of the young man's head.

"If we don't kill her, what are we going to do in the future? Do you want to be suppressed by a woman for the rest of your life?"

"But..."

"Don't say anymore."

Fann Tuoyuan curled his lips and said, "Xiao Zhu, you're still too young! You need to be more flexible!"

"You're right." Mao Jian nodded his head resentfully. "I'm just afraid..."

"Don't be afraid." Fann Tuoyuan said confidently, "This time, we will be the bystanders. At that time, we might be able to obtain countless amounts of water and resources."

As he spoke, Fann Tuoyuan touched his chin and revealed a complacent smile.

"Xiao Zhu, just wait and see. We will definitely succeed this time!"

"You are so awesome."

Mao Jian gave Fann Tuoyuan a thumbs up and praised him.

"As expected, I will have a bright future if I follow you!"

Mao Jian kept flattering Fann Tuoyuan, making him extremely happy.
