On the deserted road, a blue and white bus sped along.

Zhang Yiming sat properly on the sofa in the bus's living room, his hands on his lap and his back straight.

A photograph was placed directly in front of him.

It's a photo of Bai Xizhu from her junior high school days; her youthful smile easily brings back memories of those days.

There was a lot of food on the table in the living room, but no one was eating.

The Bai family members each held a crystal core in their hands. One crystal core after another was rapidly absorbed, and the beautiful crystal cores turned into waste and were thrown into the trash can.

Zhang Yiming looked at the trash can.

There was no other household waste in the trash can, only crystal nuclei that had turned into waste residue.

This means that they have only been absorbing crystal cores these past few days and have not been living a normal life.

Zhang Yiming lowered his eyes, perhaps he shouldn't have hidden Leng Yebai's whereabouts.

But is it really okay for her to see Leng Yebai in his current state?

"Brother Zhang, do you need my help later? How do you find Brother Leng?"

Bai Anhai was driving, while Bai Yifan had some free time, absorbing the crystal cores while talking to Zhang Yiming.

To be honest, he had basically given up hope on himself.

Despite absorbing crystal cores every day, he still has the lowest superpower in the family.

Picking locks and entering through doors is one of their strengths.

"No need, you just need to absorb the crystal core and improve your abilities."

Zhang Yiming glanced at Bai Yifan, whose superpowers were weak, and shook his head slightly.

Even his dumbest zombie leader has more superpowers than Bai Yifan!

"Brother Zhang, do you also think I'm weak?" Bai Yifan's lips twitched.

Zhang Yiming's expression remained gentle, but the way he shook his head was quite disheartening.

Sure enough, he still thought Captain Zhou was better.

At the very least, Lao Zhou thinks he's amazing!

"It's alright, not too weak." Zhang Yiming paused, then realized he might have dampened Bai Yifan's enthusiasm, so he changed his approach to a more tactful one, "You're just not obviously strong."

Bai Yifan: ...

Bai Yifan silently turned his head away, no longer speaking to Zhang Yiming, and absorbed the crystal core on his own.

He felt that Brother Zhang was not very lovable today.

Bai Yifan closed his eyes, holding a third-tier crystal core in his hand. This crystal core was given to him by his older sister.

It was the first time our own people encountered a formidable foe, and it belonged to the crystal core of that mutated golden retriever.

Now, it's been polished and rubbed smooth by him.

The energy of the third-tier crystal core had not yet been fully absorbed, and he remained the same first-tier superpowered youth he had always been.

Not a single change!

Bai Yifan felt the superpower travel through his body via his fingers, then converge in his brain.

He had clearly used all his strength to absorb it, but he was still a little short of breaking through to the second level of superpower.

Once the energy is gathered in the brain, it disappears without a trace.

Bai Yifan sometimes wondered if his brain was really full of water.

Has all the energy been neutralized?

That's exhausting!

Bai Yifan absorbed the nutrients for five minutes, then silently opened his eyes again.

"Brother Zhang, how fast are you at absorbing crystal cores?"

Bai Yifan wanted to combine the techniques of human superhumans and the zombie king in absorbing crystal cores, drawing on the strengths of various schools of thought.

“I don’t usually absorb crystal cores. I only absorb them to heal wounds when I’m seriously injured,” Zhang Yiming said earnestly. “Speaking of which, I’ve only been seriously injured once.”

It was during that time when Leng Yebai helped fight another zombie king that he was seriously injured, with a large hole punched in his heart.

"Don't you usually absorb crystal cores to enhance your abilities?" Bai Yifan asked with a curious look.

“Normally, I don’t need to absorb them. I give all the crystal cores I collect to my subordinates,” Zhang Yiming said.

"How did you become so amazing?"

Bai Yifan rubbed the shiny crystal core in his hand, his face full of envy.

"I don't know, it just happened without me realizing it." Zhang Yiming shrugged, looking completely innocent.

He didn't know when it started, but he had become the most powerful zombie.

He doesn't usually absorb crystal cores, but last night, he still sat in the yard all night holding a crystal core.

He thought that if anyone found him, he would say that he was absorbing crystal cores and gathering the essence of heaven and earth.

Bai Yifan: ...

He thought his own family was abnormal enough, but he never expected that Brother Zhang would be even more abnormal.

It's an old Versailles.

"Brother Zhang, you're so amazing, do you still go to the toilet regularly?"

Bai Yifan blinked and asked again out of curiosity.

He once asked this question to a high-ranking zombie who was dressed very cleanly, and then the zombie went berserk.

I asked Brother Zhang once before when we were in the zombie village, but unfortunately he didn't tell me.

He thought they were probably eating around that time.

He was too embarrassed to say it.

No one is eating now, so he asked around to see if everything was alright.

Anyway, with his older sister around, Brother Zhang wouldn't dare hit him!

Zhang Yiming's face twitched almost imperceptibly. He pretended not to hear Bai Yifan's words and looked out the window on his own.

"Brother Zhang?"

Bai Yifan called out to Zhang Yiming again and reached out to tug at Zhang Yiming's arm.

Zhang Yiming silently withdrew his arm, still ignoring Bai Yifan.

"Brother Zhang, do you really need this or not?"

Bai Yifan, unwilling to give up, shamelessly sat down on the sofa next to Zhang Yiming and reached out to tug at Zhang Yiming's arm.

Zhang Yiming turned around and leaned in the opposite direction from Bai Yifan.
