CHAPTER 48: CHAPTER 48: THE RECONSTRUCTION FACTION’S BROADCAST

There’s nothing else on the computer, Lu Xi’an checked it and then turned it off.

He felt somewhat sentimental and asked Yao Wei, "Do you think Fang Shuxin found the Reconstruction Faction?"

"I don’t know."

Yao Wei shook her head again; she wasn’t actually interested in this question.

She had never heard of any Reconstruction Faction since childhood; she had traveled everywhere, and there was nothing anywhere.

This so-called Reconstruction Faction should have long been buried in the dust of history. What’s the point of thinking about it now?

Lu Xi’an said, "Actually, if you think about it, Luo Ping is quite like the Reconstruction Faction. He even has a secret base; do you think he might be a successor of the Reconstruction Faction?"

"I don’t know."

Yao Wei shook her head again, "Whether he is or isn’t, he is already the current Reconstruction Faction, right?"

Lu Xi’an looked at Yao Wei, slightly surprised; he never thought this woman would offer such an opinion.

Feeling a bit awkward under his gaze, Yao Wei looked away, not facing Lu Xi’an, saying, "What are you looking at?!"

This woman usually maintained a calm, expressionless appearance, but now she seemed a bit flustered, showing some girly charm, rather cute.

"Nothing."

Lu Xi’an smiled, trying to avoid making Yao Wei uncomfortable and refrained from staring at her.

He said, "If Luo Ping is the Reconstruction Faction, then we’re basically broadcasting for the Reconstruction Faction by finding teammates for him."

"Hmm."

Yao Wei agreed with this notion. Seeing Lu Xi’an no longer staring at her, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let’s go. There’s nothing here worth staying for anymore."

Lu Xi’an said.

Yao Wei responded again with, "Hmm."

The two of them didn’t use the ladder in the corner, climbing onto the pathway and bending over to pass through, then standing up straight and leaping out of the hole.

The person who left at that time probably exited the same way.

Not using the ladder was probably to make it less easy for others to descend.

He made a disguise on the iron door when he left, so it remained undiscovered for so long.

Lu Xi’an turned around and looked down, wondering: Was Fang Shuxin a Neo-Human? Could he jump up like Yao Wei and himself? If not, he must have put a lot of effort into climbing up.

Speaking of Neo-Humans...

"Yao Wei, what type of Neo-Humans do you think we are?"

He asked.

According to Luo Ping, there should be more than one type of Neo-Human.

B-type Neo-Humans can revive by eating food; what about other types?

How many types of Neo-Humans are there in the world?

And how did Neo-Humans appear? Before the disaster? After the disaster? Did they mutate naturally, or was there an artificial intervention process?

Lu Xi’an felt some regret, wondering why he forgot to ask Luo Ping more about this aspect back then.

That guy probably knew quite a bit.

"I don’t know."

Yao Wei shook her head once more, her three-word answer was no surprise to Lu Xi’an.

She went inside to get the "charging device" from the stairs, and Lu Xi’an followed to ensure there was no further need for exploration before saying, "Let’s go."

"Hmm."

Yao Wei agreed, her eyes falling on Gou.

She looked at Gou and then at the "charging device" in her hand; Lu Xi’an didn’t need to ask to know what she was thinking.

"In a while, when we get in the car, let Gou charge this charging device."

Lu Xi’an said.

"Hmm."

Yao Wei nodded, saying to Lu Xi’an, "Thank you."

Lu Xi’an chuckled, "What’s with the thanks between us! Why are you being polite with me?"

"Hmm. Not polite."

Yao Wei responded, her lips inadvertently curving into a smile.

The two got into the car, put their things away, and Lu Xi’an took the "charging device" from Yao Wei’s hand, letting Gou open the power socket and connect it.

Lu Xi’an started the car, asking, "Should we try to find Fang Shuxin’s other shelter? I’m quite curious whether there’s anyone still broadcasting in the world after so long."

"I’ll take a look."

Yao Wei said as she took out "World Map One," opened the page for Mengxin City, and marked the position of the "Changshengtian Petroleum Station."

Watching Yao Wei’s actions, Lu Xi’an suddenly thought of something, saying, "Actually, Gou can also make a mark.

"Though it doesn’t have a map, it has a position record function for explored areas; once a mark is made, it can guide me if needed.

"I once marked a place in East Gate County Wanhu Village to the north with it.

"But since I’ve been heading south continuously, I didn’t think I’d need it, so I haven’t used this feature again.

"I almost forgot about it."

Yao Wei turned to look back at Gou. Gou was currently charging her "charging device" and was temporarily shut down.

Lu Xi’an said, "Once it’s done charging, I’ll also have it make a mark."

"Hmm."

Yao Wei replied, then buried her head in "World Map One."

She flipped a page back in the atlas and found Qiuming Road, saying, "Qiuming Road is not in Mengxin City, it’s in Yu Bei City, a mountain road.

"There’s Hongni Village at the crossing; we can’t bypass it. If we want to go through, we have to go through Hongni Village."

Lu Xi’an thought for a moment, saying, "Let’s take a look. After decades of changes, who knows if the ’Decadent Faction’ that used to occupy there is still around?"

"Hmm."

Yao Wei agreed, holding a map in one hand and a gun in the other, helping guide Lu Xi’an while keeping watch.

Outside Hongni Village, Lu Xi’an had Gou stop charging the "charging device" and sent the drone to scout the area.

The village was already deserted; the houses had collapsed in batches, none kept intact. As expected, the "Decadent Faction" that had occupied here was completely gone.

"What do you think the Decadent Faction that Fang Shuxin and the Reconstruction Faction mentioned was?"

Driving through Hongni Village, Lu Xi’an asked.

Yao Wei pondered for a moment, answering, "Should’ve referred to people like those now."

Lu Xi’an nodded, saying, "That’s what I think too. Earlier, Luo Ping cursed at the Decadent Faction. Do you think we’re also like the Decadent Faction, not producing anything, just constantly looking for oases?"

Yao Wei shook her head again and said, "No. You already said, we are the broadcast of the Reconstruction Faction."

Lu Xi’an laughed, "Right, right, we are the broadcast of the Reconstruction Faction."

The car passed through Hongni Village, heading onto another winding road in Yu Bei City.

Lu Xi’an had Gou send the drone out again, controlling it to follow the car, flying outside the cliff, helping them search for Fang Shuxin’s former shelter.
