Seeing the fight between the two military dogs and the Licker, Xiao Fan could basically determine the Licker's combat effectiveness.
If it was a Licker in perfect condition, it could probably take on four three-star military dogs alone.
It should be known that the strength of a three-star military dog was already comparable to a tiger before the apocalypse, which showed how terrifying the Licker's combat effectiveness was.
In addition, with the Licker's speed, if it wanted to escape, I'm afraid no military dog would be able to stop it.
But now this Licker was doomed.
Xiao Fan didn't want to watch any further, with a wave of his hand, two more military dogs joined the battlefield.
The four military dogs frenziedly tore and bit, the injured Licker finally couldn't hold on, it wanted to escape, but the soldiers were ready to shoot at any time, there was no way out, in the end it was torn apart alive by the four military dogs.
"Open its head and take out the crystal core."
The engineer came forward again and took out the crystal core from inside the Licker's brain.
This crystal core was larger than those of the Agile Zombie and Armored Zombie, and its luster was brighter. After getting the crystal core, Xiao Fan decided he could find someone to try out the effect of the crystal core, maybe he could cultivate some mutants this way.
The crystal cores were all handed over to Ai Yin for safekeeping. At this moment there were no more zombies inside the jewelry store. Xiao Fan took a deep breath and walked into the jewelry store.
After entering, the lights here were already broken, but the engineer Ai Yin had handed his safety helmet to Xiao Fan, it had a lamp that allowed him to see things clearly.
After turning on the light, Xiao Fan gasped.
He didn't see anything except gold!
Speaking of which, in the past he had also gone to many shopping malls, and walked past some jewelry stores without any feeling, not even glancing at them.
But now, when he saw gold, he felt it was the most beautiful thing in the world.
After calming down his state of mind, Xiao Fan said to his men, "Don't look, get to work, gather all the gold, silver and jewels, don't miss even a tiny bit!"
The soldiers of the 2nd Platoon stood guard outside, while the soldiers of the guard platoon started collecting.
Gold rings, gold necklaces, gold earrings, gold bracelets, even gold locks.
There were also diamonds, and silver would not be spared either.
After more than ten minutes, a pile of jewelry was placed in front of Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan raised his hand and converted all the jewelry.
[Congratulations Commander, obtained funds of 369,055.]
A feeling of ecstasy surged in Xiao Fan's heart.
More than three hundred thousand funds!
This almost exceeded the total sum of all the funds he had previously obtained.
And this was just a small jewelry store, one could imagine how many funds were waiting for him in the large jewelry stores in the main city district.
With this money, if he wished, he could even make the whole battalion fully staffed right now.
But he still had many places to spend money, no matter how much money he had it could be spent.
Just as his mood had just calmed down, he saw Engineer Ai Yin directing two soldiers to carry over a safe.
"Commander, this was found on the second floor, I don't know what's inside, let me open it and take a look."
"Can you unlock it?" Xiao Fan asked curiously.
"I can unlock it, but it will be very slow, so I choose to use tools."
Ai Yin opened his toolbox and took out a cutting blade that was even bigger than the toolbox.
Xiao Fan admitted that he was a little curious about the engineer's toolbox, it seemed to be a treasure trove with all kinds of treasures.
But as the commander, it would be inappropriate for him to go over and look, so he just watched the engineer work.
The diamond on the cutting blade, under the power drive, forcibly cut open the safe.
With a bang, the safe broke apart.
Xiao Fan looked inside and was stunned, there was actually money inside.
Both the Eastern Federation and Western Federation currencies, all full.
These things that people once coveted had now become worthless paper.
Xiao Fan rummaged through it, there were also some securities, title deeds, bank deposit certificates, all were valuable items.
After throwing those things away, there was still a small box inside.
Opening the box, a flash of blue light.
It was an enormous sapphire.
[Discovered valuable mineral, can be converted into system funds, does the Commander want to convert it?]
Xiao Fan hesitated for a moment, and asked Anni how much funds this sapphire could be converted into.
[Estimated to be able to convert into six thousand gold.]
Xiao Fan looked at his funds, which already exceeded four hundred and twenty thousand, and he didn't lack this six thousand either.
He decided to take this gem back as part of his collection.
In the future it could be displayed in his official residence, not only good looking, but at critical moments it would also be funds.
After collecting all the jewelry from the store, Xiao Fan led the team to leave this place.
He didn't immediately return, but walked towards the river.
With the radar on, where there were zombies was clear, there was no need to worry about encountering any danger.
He arrived at the river bank, the zombies on the opposite bank looked at the large group of food here, excitedly howling, waving their claws, as if wanting to cross the river to start feasting.
Even with the wide river in between, Xiao Fan could still feel the stench carried by the wind from the opposite bank.
Some zombies behind struggled forward, even squeezing the zombies in front of them into the river.
The turbulent river washed many zombies away.
Xiao Fan could even see zombies bobbing up and down in the river, unsure whether these zombies would drown or not.
He looked at the broken bridge, and said to Engineer Ai Yin, "Can the bridge be repaired?"
"Yes sir, repairing bridges is a basic skill for Red Alert engineers. I can set up a bridge repair hut here, and with our black technology, I can fix it up in just a few minutes, but this will consume your building materials resources, like stone, steel, etc."
Xiao Fan nodded, he already had an idea in mind.
Other than recapturing Yanshan Town, he had no experience reclaiming other places, but Qingyang's situation was undoubtedly a good opportunity.
With this river as a natural barrier, he could completely build fortifications on this side of the river bank, and station Red Alert soldiers to defend it.
When the time came, after the engineer repaired the bridge, as long as they staunchly defended this one bridge, perhaps he would have a chance to slowly eliminate all the zombies on the bridge or in the river.
If this could really be accomplished, then all the resources of this entire county would be his.
At that time, his strength would undoubtedly surge forward rapidly.
But that was not now. Right now, he had to hurry back.
Now that he had money in hand, naturally it was time to spend it.
The base construction could officially begin.
