Chapter 261: Wasteland Calendar 44th News: Eden and the Orthodox Church
The next morning.
"Postpartum Care for Ewes?" Dale looked at the notebook Yu Yuan handed him, somewhat confused.
"Boss, what is this?"
Yu Yuan patted Dale on the shoulder and said earnestly:
"Professor Dale! This is the postpartum care knowledge for ewes I specifically found for you. Don't disappoint my expectations!"
After saying that, Yu Yuan turned and left directly, leaving a still somewhat bewildered Dale standing there.
"The ability 【Diagnosis - Amnesia】 is really great!"
Yu Yuan sighed inwardly.
The knowledge about 【Postpartum Care for Ewes】 he just gave to Dale.
Was exactly the knowledge he extracted from the memory of that Black Rock Caravan thug guarding the gate yesterday, after using his psychic ability 【Cured but Still Drooling】 — 【Diagnosis - Amnesia】 on him.Yu Yuan never expected that thug's memory to contain such knowledge, but for Yu Yuan, it happened to be perfectly usable.
After getting up, he immediately wrote it down from memory and gave it to Dale.
Because he returned late yesterday, Yu Yuan got up a bit late today, and on top of that, he just finished writing that knowledge from memory.
It was already 8 AM.
Returning to the Rest Area, Fang had already placed breakfast on his boss's desk. Yu Yuan walked over to the Magazine Display Stand to check today's newspaper.
"Zhi Zhi, come here!" At Yu Yuan's call, Zhi Zhi, who had been dozing on top of Mie Mie's head, flashed over and appeared on Yu Yuan's shoulder in a few quick movements.
Ready to absorb today's intelligence information.
Arriving in front of the Magazine Display Stand, Yu Yuan's eyes also lit up.
Today actually produced another Bronze-tier card. Yu Yuan picked up the card and immediately examined it.
【Intelligence Card — Opportunity】
Quality: Bronze-tier
Function: Using this card will grant the user the coordinates of a valuable treasure in the current world.
——————————
"Treasure coordinates..." Yu Yuan rubbed the card in his hand.
Speaking of which, ever since he raised the development progress of the 【Neighborhood Rat】 title to 【Perfect】.
When exploring the city, he often sensed those unclaimed supply points, but none could compare to the intense feeling he had when obtaining the 【Spirituality Concentrate】 and the Nizi Water Arrow Turtle eggs.
The treasure-hunting perception has varying intensities. The higher the item's value, the stronger the sensation. The previous sensations were all very weak. Yu Yuan tried searching a few times and found they were just some hidden food or gold and silver.
High-value or large quantities of supplies in Green Forest City were basically all occupied by the major factions. The only things to pick up were these small items.
After that, unless he happened to pass by, he wouldn't specifically go looking for them anymore.
Now, with this 【Opportunity Card】 appearing, it's still pretty good!
Yu Yuan simply put it away.
Picking up the newspaper, he looked at today's news.
The first piece of news was still the daily header.
Today, there was no extreme weather, but the temperature hit a new low again. The minimum temperature had reached 5°C, which basically counts as early winter temperatures.
Yu Yuan knew this was just the beginning.
His gaze moved to the next news item. The corner of his eye twitched slightly, and a smile tugged at his lips.
"Interesting!"

Yesterday, within Johnck Zoo in our city, a four-person team led by Cold Crow held a secret meeting.
It is reported that during this meeting, each person expressed their views on the combined application of mechanical modification and genetic modification.
They stated that after the disappearance of the 【Stealth Rat】, mechanical modification technology might be another possibility for strengthening themselves.
Furthermore, Cold Crow stated that since the emergence of the 【Stealth Rat】 was originally created by the former Saint Moga using that half of the ritual blueprint.
Then, as long as they obtain that half of the blueprint, it is highly likely they could create another Spiritual Creature in the Metamorphosis Period similar to the 【Stealth Rat】, perhaps even more than one.
Currently, that half of the ritual blueprint is held by Saint Jiu Feng.
The meeting finally decided that this mechanical modification-related technology is very likely their opportunity to strengthen themselves. They decided to delve deeper into this technological line. If they can master mechanical modification technology, perhaps their strength could rival that of a Saint, allowing them to reclaim their own power and status.
Instead of being excluded from the inner circle by Saint Jiu Feng as they are now.
——————————————
Ever since the Giant Mutant Rat was subdued by Yu Yuan, the newspaper hadn't featured much information about Cold Crow and the other preachers these past few days. Furthermore, Mona indicated that Preacher Cold Crow and the others hold a not-low status in the hearts of most thugs within the Aurora Animal Assistance Association.
Even if Preacher Miller wanted to deal with them, he would need to find a suitable reason and clear evidence.
Yu Yuan tapped his fingers on the desk, his gaze continuing to the news below.

Yesterday, the mysterious figure Blackfire at the Thug Prison received withdrawal instructions from headquarters and learned that the originally scheduled support supplies were also suspended.
Last night, Blackfire went to the Northern Wilderness to meet with Bloodbone, the overall person in charge of the supply transport.
He learned that the faction alliance 【EDEN】, which is hostile to the Mechanical Vanguard Society, had its strength greatly increased after receiving aid from a religious organization called the 【Orthodox Church】.
Blackfire connected this with the 【cult】 behind the Aurora Animal Assistance Association, feeling there seemed to be some relationship between the two.
After joint feedback and application from Blackfire and Bloodbone.
The Council of the Mechanical Vanguard Society temporarily suspended the withdrawal order, requiring them to investigate and clarify information about the 【cult】 behind the Aurora Animal Assistance Association.
Due to the impending extreme climate disaster, the two decided to launch an attack on the Aurora Animal Assistance Association within the next couple of days.
They will take action personally.

Last night, Zhou Yuan, Vice President of the Black Rock Caravan in the Northern District of Green Forest City, met an incredible young man and witnessed some miraculous phenomena not explained by normal scientific knowledge.
However, this also opened a brand new door to the world for him.
In the end, he decided to take a gamble!
Not just because of the fear, intimidation, and shock that young man brought him.
More importantly, it was the eye for judging people and the ability to recognize and seize opportunities honed over decades in the business world.
He believes this young man might be the opportunity for him, or rather the Black Rock Caravan, to rise in this wasteland.
—————————————
Looking at the last piece of news, Yu Yuan wasn't surprised, but he felt considerably more at ease.
Although he already had the Commander System to check Zhou Yuan's trust index.
Now, seeing Zhou Yuan's determination through the newspaper, Yu Yuan could act more boldly in his next moves.
As for the news about the Mechanical Vanguard Society...
Yu Yuan already knew from Hans's intelligence last night that Blackfire had gone to that Feed Factory.
Now he also basically understood why that supply truck convoy turned back halfway to Green Forest City.
The Mechanical Vanguard Society had actually also detected the impending Extreme Cold disaster.
Thinking about it carefully, this was normal. After all, the world's climate is currently in the gestation period of the Super Storm Period.
It wouldn't be difficult for the Mechanical Vanguard Society's mechanical technology to monitor this data.
It's just that Yu Yuan was somewhat interested in the faction alliance called 【EDEN】 mentioned in the news.
This 【EDEN】 is precisely the alliance composed of multiple factions fighting the Mechanical Vanguard Society on the Terra Continent.
He just didn't expect them to also have connections with the Orthodox Church.
Currently, the only faction Yu Yuan knows that has connections with the Orthodox Church is one — the Humpback Whale.
Recalling the subtly hostile attitude the Humpback Whale showed in the news from a few days ago upon learning the Thug Prison possessed mechanical modification technology.
Yu Yuan seemed to have understood the key point.
"Let's wait for the intelligence from Zhou Yuan's side first!"
However...
Yu Yuan walked over to the whiteboard, looked at the already intricate faction relationship lines drawn on it, and drew a triangle between the Humpback Whale, the Mechanical Vanguard Society, and the Aurora Animal Assistance Association.
"Mona's opportunity to rise has come..."
