Goblins and the Rolls-Royce

Here is the translation of the provided text:

The second intelligence report followed.

An undiscovered small oil field.

Oil fields were rare resources in the wasteland. The extracted petroleum could be processed into fuel in the production workshop, and fuel was the most crucial energy source for a mobile city.

Additionally, petroleum could also be processed into plastic.

Provided you possessed the plastic blueprint.

The third intelligence report surprised Li Ye a little.

"This Vanguard previously defeated two mobile cities by itself, and now it has easily crushed a predator city. Its strength must have increased significantly," he muttered.

What surprised him even more was that the Vanguard had actually captured a Level 2 Item. For a Level 1 mobile city, a Level 2 Item offered an enormous boost.

Li Ye was very curious about what that Level 2 Item could be.

The fourth intelligence report.

A monster civilization had risen.

There were countless monsters in the wasteland. Some of these monsters lived in groups in human-like forms, and some could even develop into monster civilizations. Generally speaking, monster civilizations were extremely terrifying.

However, Li Ye wasn't too concerned about this. After all, his Tomorrow had only just begun, and it simply didn't have the strength to deal with a monster civilization.

He continued to the fifth intelligence report.

Deep within Thunder Canyon, a bounty hunter had unexpectedly acquired a Level 1 Flying Vehicle.

A Level 1 Flying Vehicle!

A hint of fanaticism flashed in Li Ye's eyes.

This flying vehicle had so many uses. It could be used for reconnaissance ahead, and it could also be equipped with machine guns and bombs to fiercely bombard enemies during combat.

As for the sixth intelligence report, it made his heart pound.

He hadn't expected another Wild BOSS to descend.

Gross Mine. It seemed to be the place where Azure had once met its defeat.

More importantly... there was a Level 1 City Advancement Blueprint in the storeroom of Gross Mine!

A look of seriousness appeared in Li Ye's eyes.

It seemed that no matter what, he had to find a way to capture it.

But with Tomorrow's current strength, it couldn't take down a heavily guarded large resource point occupied by monsters, coupled with a Wild BOSS.

He would have to do as before and cooperate with Azure and Conqueror, attacking together with the three parties working in unison.

Li Ye could afford to forgo the Level 2 Item dropped by this Wild BOSS, but he absolutely had to obtain the Storeroom Key it dropped!

After all, the benefits of advancing to a Level 2 City were too great!

First, a Level 2 mobile city possessed five times the space of a Level 1 city. This meant more living space, more farmland, and the ability to support a larger population. It could also store more resources and had stronger endurance!

Second, although a Level 1 mobile city could carry and use Level 2 Items, its production workshop could not unlock and produce them. Only after advancing to Level 2 could the production workshop unlock the production rights for Level 2 Items.

This was akin to "leveling up" in a game.

As for the seventh Epic Intelligence Report, it required waiting, as usual.

Li Ye couldn't help but nod. He acknowledged the value of these Epic Intelligence Reports; they were indeed very useful.

He quickly made a decision.

First, he had to rush to Thunder Canyon to obtain the Level 1 Flying Vehicle from the bounty hunter.

Then, he would head to the Rotting Lands to harvest that small oil field.

Next, he would join forces with Azure and Conqueror to attack Gross Mine together.

More than ten minutes later, Tomorrow roared to life, passed through the opened massive gates of Roland Fortress, and set course for Thunder Canyon.

"Finally found it."

Li Ye, on the watchtower, lowered his binoculars and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Tomorrow had already arrived deep within Thunder Canyon and had been searching for quite some time.

The target it was looking for was not far ahead.

The bounty hunter and his off-road vehicle, along with the Level 1 Flying Vehicle parked beside it.

Li Ye focused his gaze and discovered it was a small combat helicopter with a rather retro design.

Judging by its appearance, it wasn't very advanced. Its entire body was a patchwork of wood and metal plates, with only the main rotor and tail rotor being pure metal structures.

The combat helicopter was equipped with two machine guns and a bomb bay. The space inside the helicopter was limited, accommodating only two people.

Despite its crude construction, it was still quite remarkable in the wasteland.

The bounty hunter, upon seeing a mobile city approaching, was also taken aback.

"Damn it, I really don't know if I'm lucky or unlucky..." he muttered to himself.

Li Ye then brought his men to the ground via the lifting platform and began conversing with the bounty hunter.

On the wasteland, some powerful lone survivors choose to become bounty hunters.

They would purchase vehicles, equip them with Level 1 Weapons or even machine guns, and hunt monsters on the wasteland for rewards.

The benefit of acting alone was that all dropped items from monsters belonged to them. If they happened to find a Level 1 Crop Seed or a Level 1 Blueprint, they would make a huge profit.

As such, many people flocked to this profession.

Li Ye glanced at the Combat Helicopter.

He thought for a moment, then asked the question that interested him the most.

"Where did you get these spoils of war?"

The bounty hunter then provided his answer.

According to him, he had gone deep into Thunder Canyon this time hoping to find some wandering elite monsters to kill and collect their drops.

While he was driving around looking for prey, he suddenly heard a noise from the sky.

When the bounty hunter rolled down his car window and peered out, he saw a helicopter swaying as it approached. It seemed to have malfunctioned during reconnaissance.

Not long after, the helicopter made an emergency landing. The bounty hunter secretly followed it. When he saw the helicopter's cockpit open, he was instantly stunned.

The pilot was none other than a Goblin.

As the Goblin frowned and took out a wrench to begin repairs, the bounty hunter shot and killed it.

Although he was pleasantly surprised to have acquired a flying vehicle, he was now facing a significant problem.

The vehicle he was driving was just an off-road car, completely incapable of transporting the helicopter back to a town to sell it.

Waiting around wasn't an option either, as this was deep within Thunder Canyon, where wandering monsters appeared from time to time, and they could even come in groups.

And, as if by "coincidence," Tomorrow happened to arrive at that moment.

"A Goblin pilot?" Li Ye exclaimed in surprise.

He knew that monsters on the wasteland had intelligence, but he didn't expect them to be capable of piloting helicopters to such an extent.

Seeing Li Ye's disbelief, the bounty hunter led him to the Goblin's corpse.

Upon seeing the pilot's uniform and helmet worn by the Goblin, Li Ye finally believed him.

Filled with questions, he suddenly recalled something, and his heart skipped a beat.

This round's intelligence report mentioned that a Monster Civilization had risen in the Wasteland Zone. Could this Goblin and its helicopter have come from that Monster Civilization?

How terrifying was the strength of this Monster Civilization if they could even build helicopters?

Just thinking about it made his scalp tingle.

The bounty hunter, meanwhile, looked at Li Ye.

"Say, do you want a Rolls-Royce?" he asked.

"Huh?"

Under Li Ye's astonished gaze, the bounty hunter pulled out a blueprint from his pocket.

It was the one dropped by the Goblin pilot.

[Rolls-Royce Phantom - Blueprint]

[Item Name: Rolls-Royce Phantom]

[Item Level: Common]

[Effect: None]

[Crafting Requirements: 150 units Iron Ore (Level 1), 10 units Automotive Parts]
