Hearing Little Fox’s words, Chu Jiangyue directly took out the Rocket Launcher from the system backpack. However, despite living through another life, Chu Jiangyue had never handled a hot weapon before. After taking out the Rocket Launcher, she still needed to figure out how to fire it.
"Engage the safety here, then press here to fire."
Mr. Shen, at so point, had co to Chu Jiangyue’s side. He leaned in slightly, giving a hands-on lesson.
"I’m not good at aiming, Mr. Shen, if you can do it, you should."
Chu Jiangyue had a clear understanding of her limitations.
Previously, Shen Zhigui hadn’t suggested firing because he worried that Chu Jiangyue might take offense.
But since Chu Jiangyue brought it up herself, Shen Zhigui had no reason to refuse.
"Alright, I’ll do it."
Shen Zhigui took the Rocket Launcher from Chu Jiangyue and fired skillfully, as if he had rehearsed it, leaving Chu Jiangyue amazed.
She only knew that Shen Zhigui’s identity before the apocalypse was not simple, but she didn’t expect that he had experience with Rocket Launchers.
However, this wasn’t the ti to think about such things. What was most important was to eliminate all the mutated elephants in front of them, and they needed to relocate quickly.
Once Shen Zhigui took control of the Rocket Launcher, his entire aura changed, and his aiming was exceptional, taking down a mutated elephant with each shot.
After all the mutated elephants were dealt with, Shen Zhigui held the Rocket Launcher and walked towards Chu Jiangyue.
Watching Shen Zhigui approach her against the backlight, Chu Jiangyue felt a mont of blankness in her mind.
"Did we... win?"
Soone said this, and at that mont, everyone realized that Shen Zhigui had taken down all the mutated elephants with the Rocket Launcher.
A mont ago, they were locked in a deadly battle with the mutated elephants; the next mont, they realized that all the elephants were dead, sothing they didn’t dare dream about.
The next mont, everyone erupted in cheers, and Chu Jiangyue and Shen Zhigui exchanged smiles.
Shen Zhigui returned the Rocket Launcher to Chu Jiangyue and noticed her hands were injured from grabbing the vines too forcefully.
"Your hand is injured; you need to clean the wound and apply dication quickly!"
As he spoke, Shen Zhigui instinctively lifted Chu Jiangyue’s injured hand.
Chu Jiangyue didn’t expect Shen Zhigui to hold her hand, and she was montarily shocked.
She awkwardly withdrew her hand: "It’s fine, I have a Wood Elent Ability. By using a bit of my superpower, it’ll heal quickly."
Honestly, Chu Jiangyue hadn’t paid much attention to such a minor injury.
"It still needs to be treated quickly. If it gets infected, it could be bad."
So people neglect small wounds, which eventually fester, leading to amputation.
So, nothing should be ignored.
"Thanks for the concern, I’ll handle it now." Saying this, Chu Jiangyue channeled her Wood Elent Ability over her palms.
The wound that was still bleeding a bit quickly scabbed over.
"With your hand injured, it’s difficult to drive. Until it’s fully healed, I’ll be your driver."
This ti, Shen Zhigui’s tone was determined, leaving Chu Jiangyue no room to refuse.
Although Chu Jiangyue found Shen Zhigui’s behavior a bit strange, having soone willing to drive her was absolutely welco.
"Alright, thanks!"
Everyone was swiftly clearing the battlefield, and Chu Jiangyue dragged Shen Zhigui straight to the tusks of all the mutated elephants.
Others didn’t know why Chu Jiangyue was so fixated on the tusks, but they wisely avoided competing with her.
Although Shen Zhigui was the one who dealt with the mutated elephants, they knew he relied on the Rocket Launcher, which Chu Jiangyue provided.
This ti, in facing the mutated elephant herd, their contributions were undoubtedly the greatest.
While Chu Jiangyue collected the tusks, Shen Zhigui was by her side, extracting the Crystal Cores from the mutated elephants.
Just like the previous mutated animals, the mutated elephants also had Crystal Cores in their heads.
After quickly cleaning the battlefield, everyone returned to their vehicles and set off again towards T City.
Shen Zhigui kept his word; until Chu Jiangyue’s hand healed, he served as her driver, so the two shared her off-road vehicle.
Seeing this, Lin Xuyuan and the others started ssaging Shen Zhigui.
They weren’t sure what was going on and didn’t want to use the wrong na the next ti they saw Chu Jiangyue.
Shen Zhigui knew Lin Xuyuan and the others were ssaging him, but he ignored them, not even opening his virtual screen.
"Big brother and big sister, I saw everything. When I grow up, I also want to beco a powerful superpower user like you!"
The little girl had watched through the car window as they battled the mutated elephant herd.
She hadn’t paid much attention to others, but Chu Jiangyue and Shen Zhigui’s battle captivated her the most.
Though it was partly because she was more familiar with Chu Jiangyue, primarily their fight was the most gripping.
"Alright, I believe in you, you can definitely do it!"
The little girl hadn’t awakened her superpower yet, but Chu Jiangyue didn’t mind encouraging her with sweet words.
One must have goals to live with hope.
Dozens of vehicles left long tracks in the snowy world.
But with the heavy snowfall, new snowflakes soon covered these tracks, erasing the original traces.
Fortunately, the system-produced off-road vehicles did not struggle to drive through thick snow.
After a day and night of traveling, the convoy finally reached the outskirts of T City by the following dawn.
"So this is T City; it doesn’t seem all that different from L City before,"
Chu Jiangyue remarked from the front passenger seat, looking out the window, but after driving for quite so ti, they hadn’t seen a soul.
"We should have asked Ban Huafang for a map of T City’s base distribution before we set off."
Without people around, they had to rely on the system’s navigation and weren’t sure who they might encounter.
"No worries, following the navigation works just fine."
Shen Zhigui had beco quite accustod to the large directional arrows of the navigation system, able to follow without much thought.
"Host, scanning has detected survivors 1,000 ters ahead!"
As the car moved forward, Chu Jiangyue finally heard Little Fox’s alert.
"You’re right, keep going forward; we need to find a populated area to stop."
Chu Jiangyue’s goal was to promote the Jianglin Hotel, so the more people they found, the better.
Since Ban Huafang had already left T City, Chu Jiangyue wasn’t sure about the reliability of the remaining bases; it depended on whether the survivors were willing to leave with her.
Chu Jiangyue and her convoy of dozens of vehicles were already being watched once they entered T City boundaries.
