Scavenging Notes: I am the Lucky Star of the End Times

Star calendar year 336, hot season day 108, morning 07:30,

Xu Sansan arrived at the private army camp on time, quickly crossed the fitness area in the center of the barracks, and trotted towards the corner where the four teams gathered.

At this time, Jianfeng, who was lifting dumbbells to practice his biceps in the fitness area, narrowed his eyes slightly and watched Xu Sansan passing by quickly:

Is it her?

My mind unconsciously recalled the ghost ID that posted the toilet cleaning advertisement: Xiao Xiong Xu.

Xu Sansan, who had just passed through the fitness area, suddenly frowned:

Someone is looking at me!

She turned her head sharply and met Jianfeng's slightly scrutinizing gaze!

Seeing the wind, the arm holding the dumbbell paused:

It's quite interesting that a girl whose genes haven't been improved can actually have such a keen perception ability...

Xu Sansan muttered to himself:

What's wrong with this muscular guy? Why is he always staring at my matchmaker mole?

Did I draw it crooked today?

Or... he had some bad intentions...

Xu Sansan's thoughts flashed through his mind. He returned an equally scrutinizing look, then quickly turned around and continued running towards the Sifang team.

The Marshal was the first to see Xu Sansan. He blinked his bright eyes and waved his hand:

"Good morning, Xiao Xu!"

Xu Sansan greeted the four people one by one, handed the key of the aircraft to Hu Ba, and then informed everyone that the aircraft had been repaired and could be used at any time.

She had discussed it carefully with Xie Yuan last night. Although they now had a temporary protective shield, there would still be great risks if they rashly drove the aircraft to the Stasis Element Building in City No. 107.

Her obsession with the Stagnation Element Building is not just about the supplies inside, but more about the Stagnation Element itself.

This little stone is a good thing! Not only can it keep food fresh, but it may also be a killer weapon!

However, ever since the Demon Wolf Squad "defected", the private barracks has strengthened its management. Teams that have not accepted missions are not allowed to receive temporary protective shields, and aircraft are not allowed to leave the base without permission.

Every aircraft in the private military camp is equipped with a real-time positioning system. If the aircraft of the Quartet team suddenly leaves the base, and the main personnel do not apply for the mission and still stay in the private military camp, it will easily arouse suspicion.

Therefore, this matter should not be rushed and requires more careful planning.

Everyone was very excited to learn that the aircraft had been repaired, but then they immediately became bitter and resentful.

Yu Ge sighed and stroked his freshly waxed beard:

"Well, now we have the aircraft, but new problems have arisen..."

Xu Sansan raised his eyebrows, not quite understanding.

The Marshal opened his bright eyes, came over, and added:

“I can’t grab the mission!”

Hu Ba put away the nail clippers he had just used to trim his onychomycosis, shook his head, and said helplessly:

"Our team is now E-level. In principle, we can apply for all missions with the levels of 'difficult' and 'dangerous'. However, since we are ranked at the bottom of the E-level, we can't compete with those teams ranked higher!"

Xu Sansan frowned:

"There are so many tasks. Can you at least assign one or two to us?"

The little stutterer waved his hands and simply summarized the reason:

"The… the flame season… is… is ending… grab… grab the… missions!"

Xu Sansan suddenly realized:

This means that these teams all want to make a fortune before the end of the hot season, so they take more than one mission a day?

What should we do? Now the team's balance has become zero again. We must quickly generate income. Otherwise, after the hot season ends, when the windy season and snowy season come, everyone's life will be difficult.

At this time, the commander stared at each other, pointed at an inconspicuous task on the light computer screen, and said hesitantly:

"How about we take this?"

Xu Sansan looked at the “dangerous” task on the screen. It had a lot of clicks, indicating that it was quite popular, but why had no one applied for it?

Yu Ge patted the Marshal's shoulder and sighed:

"You know this mission is very strange. It has been here for several years. Many teams have gone back and forth, but none of them have been able to find the target. Let's not bother with it..."

Xu Sansan clicked on this task with a historical "fail rate" of 100%. The first interface that popped up was the "Task Mine Clearance" interface that was specially added for this task. In fact, it was a brief introduction to the background of this task from the dark web.

It turns out that this was once a mission rated "dangerous" and was originally only open to teams above level C. However, according to the failure reports of previous teams, the main reason for the failure of this mission was not its degree of danger, but its degree of difficulty.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, the dark web backend simply reduced the task level from "dangerous" to "dangerous". The original intention was to expand the scope of the team applying for the task to ensure that the task could be completed as soon as possible. At the same time, the employer also increased the remuneration amount again and again. However, many years have passed, and the task is still like a nail household, hanging high on the task list, and has gradually been rated by everyone as the most unlucky task in history, no doubt about it.

Xu Sansan quickly scanned the "historical evolution" section that was unique to this mission, and became more and more curious, so he clicked on the mission details and looked at the mission objectives inside -

A human face mask connecting to alien civilization.

Xu Sansan looked at the dark green and black background of the mask and the large bulging triangular eyes that would leave a deep impression at first glance, and was speechless for a moment.

If this isn't the bronze mask from Sanxingdui, then what is it?!

This mask is most likely buried in the Sanxingdui Museum. This task does not provide accurate coordinates, so how can everyone find it? No wonder the "failure rate" is 100%. No one can complete this!

So she continued to scroll down and read the various complaints from the teams that had taken on this mission over the years:

"The task doesn't give the coordinate range, so whoever comes will know. If you like to find a needle in a haystack, you are welcome to try!"

"Damn it! Coordinates 283.12, 27.36 explored, no results."

"Damn it! Coordinates 17.29, 373.41 have been explored, but to no avail."

"Damn it! Coordinates 58.39, 214.17 have been explored, but to no avail."

……

Xu Sansan quickly scrolled down and finally saw a message with a picture in the last and most recent record:

"We finally entered the area where the target was suspected to be hidden. We dug for a whole day, but all we found were broken pottery pieces. We did find a lot of human faces, but no masks!"

Xu Sansan looked at this low-resolution photo of the scene. The clay fragments all over the ground looked more and more familiar.

She clicked on the picture to enlarge it, and then zoomed in again. Among the clay fragments, there were faces, armor, combat boots, and horses...

I go!

Isn’t this the Terracotta Warriors!

Xu Sansan quickly looked through the corresponding coordinate points in the record, and then retrieved the Panjiayuan coordinate points he had dug up last time from the optical computer.

One is the Terracotta Warriors in Xi'an, and the other is Panjiayuan in Beijing. If you start from the two coordinate points respectively and follow the directional trajectory remembered from the previous life while extending towards the southwest, then the intersection of the two lines is very likely the coordinate of this mission - Sanxingdui in Guanghan!

The more Xu Sansan thought about it, the more he felt there was hope!

After sorting out my thoughts, I stopped struggling and started to speak tentatively:

"I think it's not impossible to accomplish..."

As soon as she finished speaking, the four members of the Quartet team all looked at her.

How should I put it? Speaking of Xiao Xu, judging from her fighting power alone, she is indeed unremarkable, even a little lackluster, but if we evaluate her from the perspective of her overall comprehensive ability, she must be described as mysterious, because she can always find treasures suddenly and unexpectedly.

Therefore, everyone in the Quartet team is still very confident in Xiao Xu. After all, the historical record is there, and people have to believe it.

Hu Ba frowned, shook his beard under his nose, pointed at one of the messages and said:

"The search area is very wide, and the number of infected bodies we will encounter may be large. I am worried that we don't have enough manpower and may not be able to cope with it."

Xu Sansan thought for a moment, then asked:

"What if I can get some outside help?"

……

At the same time, the commander of the South Gate Refugee Camp was standing in the middle of an open space. He glanced at the captains of the guards standing in a row around him, coughed lightly, and pointed at the captain of District 8:

"Captain Ma, please tell me about your previous report findings first."

Ma Changshun stepped out of the line, stood at attention, and then said:

"Report! Five days ago, more than 5 elderly people were found dead suddenly in nine barracks in Zone 8 at night. The cause of death is still under investigation, but it is certain that it was not caused by radiation."

The battalion commander nodded:

"Although this matter is strange, there is no need to involve too much manpower and resources in it. After all, the base has basically given up on the people in District 8. We should focus more on Districts 1-7!"

"Yes!"

After Ma Changshun answered loudly, he immediately returned to the team.
