Chapter 247 is being synchronized...
DAY141
The synchronization of the mecha's main system has been going on for 24 hours, and it's not even halfway done yet. This slow pace makes Lu Yuan wonder if it's because Wei Guo is unwilling to merge with his mecha.
Yesterday, after his mech matched with Wei Guo, Lu Yuan observed Wei Guo's location through the starship and saw two vehicles drive away, heading towards the G City base he remembered.
Thinking that his father was still frozen in the cold storage of the First Hospital of G City, Lu Yuan began to wonder if he could find an opportunity to go to the cold storage again.
However, it's not possible right now, at least not yet. His mech is still in the synchronization system, and in the words of the Starship System, this exoskeleton mech is now less than a pile of scrap metal.
"Is it really okay for it to synchronize so slowly?" After all, Lu Yuan knew nothing about all of this. Although he had inherited a little bit of the memories of the other Lu Yuan when he woke up this time, the gap between the two was too big. The other Lu Yuan had lived for several decades longer in the interstellar space and had nearly a thousand years of life memories on Earth. He, a weakling, simply couldn't handle it.
"Is it reasonable for you to ask a question about a Level 2 or Level 1 system?" After spending a lot of time with Lu Yuan now, the starship system has become less serious and sometimes quite mischievous.
"So we just have to wait like this?" The progress bar was still crawling at a snail's pace, and it had only just passed the 60% mark. Looking at the situation, Lu Yuan felt that it would take at least another day to complete the synchronization.
"Then can we fly around some more?" the system suggested.
"No thanks." Actually, after Lu Yuan teleported from the helicopter to the starship the day before yesterday, it was the starship system that suggested they take a stroll around first. After all, the global situation is still unclear, and considering that the starship's stealth capabilities have exceeded current human understanding, it should be fine to act as a reconnaissance vanguard. So Lu Yuan agreed without hesitation.
As a result, as soon as they discovered that special area in the United States, they were locked onto by the United States. Without saying a word, the United States fired two missiles at them. Fortunately, Lu Yuan was on a starship. If it had been an ordinary helicopter, he would have been killed without a trace.
"Don't underestimate me, I just forgot to turn on the jammer." The system tried to argue, but then it realized that someone had entered its monitoring range.
"What's going on?" Seeing the change in perspective on the screen, Lu Yuan perked up. After all, doing anything was more interesting than just sitting and waiting for the synchronization system to start.
"It's the same car as yesterday." The system zoomed in on the ground, and sure enough, it was the same model as the two cars that drove away yesterday, and several more had arrived.
"They found level 8 zombies here yesterday; they must have come in a group," the system guessed as it followed the four vehicles on the ground.
"Did you mention yesterday that they encountered level eight zombies?" Lu Yuan asked in confusion. Yesterday, they suddenly connected with Wei Guo high in the sky. By the time Lu Yuan realized what was happening and called the starship system to track the source, they only saw two cars drive away.
"No?" Lu Yuan thought that if the starship system had a physical form, this guy would definitely have a sly and wicked face.
"It doesn't matter, you're not going down anyway." The system continued, "You don't have a mecha now, so even if you went down, you wouldn't need zombies, they would just freeze you to death."
Lu Yuan didn't reply, continuing to follow the screen on the starship and observe the situation below. This time, the four vehicles went even deeper than yesterday, and then more than a dozen people got off one after another, all of them fully armed.
"They're making such a big fuss over a level eight zombie? Isn't that a bit exaggerated?" The system split the display screen, one side following the team of a dozen people, and the other side helping to search for the fire-type zombie from yesterday.
"I get the feeling that you're trying to go down and help," Lu Yuan remarked, looking at the dual-line operation of the starship system.
"But I don't have a physical body." Although it was a system voice, Lu Yuan could detect a hint of helplessness in it.
Looking back, the mech's system synchronization was still struggling at 61%, so Lu Yuan could only help the starship system find the level eight zombie.
"Look over there!" Just as Lu Yuan straightened his body to help, he heard the excited voice of the starship system, and then a withered arm appeared in the sub-channel.
"Holy crap, so close!" Lu Yuan didn't know how the starship filmed these images, but the distance was so close that it felt like the claw was right in front of him.
"What a pity, I wish I were a warship." The starship system sighed. Because it was a starship for researchers, it was only equipped with powerful weapons capable of destroying itself, in addition to escape pods. Using them here would probably peel off a layer of the Earth.
"Where did that person come from?" Lu Yuan had sharp eyes and suddenly spotted a figure carrying an equipment bag near where the fire-type zombie claws appeared.
Looking back at their main group, none of them noticed that someone was missing and they were still heading along the route they had set.
"They didn't come together?" The system started replaying the footage and then realized that this person had actually been secretly following them by lying on the roof of the car.
As the figure drew ever closer to the level eight zombie's range, Lu Yuan grew worried. In the apocalypse, even when facing lower-level zombies, normal teams wouldn't split up. This meant that the person in front of him was either incredibly capable or incredibly reckless.
Soon, Lu Yuan's deduction was confirmed; this guy was just too carefree.
For some reason, Lu Yuan saw that this person was very close to the level 8 zombie, but for some reason, he veered off course and missed the level 8 zombie. This was incredibly lucky. If it were anyone else wandering around like that, they would have been torn to shreds long ago.
“Zhang Qi!” The carefree person on Lu Yuan’s screen was none other than Zhang Qi, the 16-year-old boy who had accompanied Wei Guo and the others on their mission yesterday.
After they escaped back to the base yesterday, they reported to the headquarters. Under Wang Qiang's instructions, a 14-person task force was immediately organized. The reasons were twofold: firstly, level eight zombie crystals were very rare, and secondly, they hoped to find the missing robot Weiguo.
This team of 14 consists of advanced ability users from the G City base. Each of them is a level 7 ability user, and there are two other level 7 ability users besides Sister Lin who are about to break through.
Zhang Qi really wanted to come along, but he was only a level four ability user. Let alone fighting level eight zombies, even level five zombies would be a nightmare for him. But young and fearless, nothing could stop his desire to obtain that level eight fire crystal, so he hid on the roof of the car early in the morning.
"Brother Cai..." Zhang Qi was stunned by Brother Cai's loud shout. He was actually quite afraid of his captain. Now, not only had he sneaked out, but he had also been caught red-handed. He knew how he would be criticized when he got back.
