Chapter 36: Superpower Card

Jiang Kai, the guide who brought them yesterday, did not have the authority to enter the advanced area of ​​the [Mission Center], but as a psychic, he could enter, and this was also the purpose of the five of them coming to the Dawn Base.

In the morning, the [Task Center] was packed with residents who came to receive tasks.

He changed into a decent but slightly rustic outfit, and still had the ugly human skin mask on his face. With Zhang Juan's magical skills, the impeccable handsome man was once again ugly into a disgusting square face.

"Hey, only people with special abilities can enter here. I see you look like a stranger. Do you know what happens to people who mis-dress as special abilities at the Dawn Base?"

A loud male voice called out to Qin Simu, ordering him to stop and verify his identity.

"Please show me your psychic card."

The black water cup on Wang Jianjun's pants swayed, and he ran to Qin Simu and stopped him.

Ability card?

What was that? Why hadn't he heard of it?

Qin Simu was somewhat puzzled. He glanced around calmly and found that some people were indeed holding cards in their hands. Some were pure white, some were light yellow, some were light silver, and some were sky blue.

Among them, pure white is the most common.

"Yes, I got this card a few days ago. My wife thought it was pretty and took it to play with."

Yesterday, the workplace conflict between Chunxiu and Chen Xue in [Territory Center] was caused by Qin Simu not having a superpower card.

The former leader of the Qin Group, who had rich social experience and had seen countless people, quickly deduced that he did not have this card because of Chunxiu's interference.

But he couldn't tell the truth so bluntly.

Chunxiu's approach was actually beneficial to both of them. First, Chunxiu concealed his negligence at work that day. Second, as an ice-type mutant, he naturally avoided the sight of the two people in power at the Dawn Base, making it easier for him to carry out the restaurant gambling mission.

In the past, when drinking with colleagues in the business world, those big guys would use their wives as a cover. Qin Simu, who had seen a lot of this, also cleverly used fear of his wife as an excuse this time.

Having caught several ordinary people disguised as superpowers, Wang Jianjun would not believe what Qin Simu said. He looked at him suspiciously and said jokingly:

"Oh? When the registrar handed you this card, didn't he emphasize that you should keep it with you? Furthermore, this card is bound to the psychic, so you can summon it at any time with your mind."

When Qin Simu heard the words "summon at any time", his eyelids twitched and he pretended to be a wife-slave who was afraid of his wife.

He said bitterly, "Brother, I dare not summon him. If my wife finds out that Ka is suddenly gone, I will be in trouble."

Wang Jianjun, whose family was also headed by women before the apocalypse, could tell that Qin Simu was not acting and was probably really afraid of his wife.

But rules are rules, and he cannot let go of any ordinary person who pretends to be a superpower.

"Then what is your special ability? Show it to me." Wang Jianjun clenched his fist and instantly prepared for half defense and half offense. This was his immediate reaction as a power-type special ability user.

The other party did not show any reaction as if he had to take out the Psychic Card, which made Qin Simu secretly breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was really a Psychic, otherwise it would be difficult to escape now.

A dozen ice cubes played finger-guessing games in the air, spun around, and then suddenly disappeared.

Two seconds is enough to explain everything.

This scene shocked Wang Jianjun so much that he was stunned. He also knew an ice-type mutant, but his control over ice was far inferior to the man in front of him.

"What color is your card? It should be more than pure white, right?"

Qin Simu, who didn't know the color of the Psychic Card, was about to change the subject when Wang Jianjun immediately added, "Oh, yes, you're new here, so you can only have pure white. That means you can only go to the D-level area. If you accidentally go to the wrong area, you will be fined, and the fine is quite high."

Qin Simu nodded in agreement. Fortunately, his elder brother was a talkative person, otherwise he would not be able to explain himself.

He has escaped now, but it may not be the same next time. He must get the psychic card from Chen Xue as soon as possible.

The D-level area has the largest number of psychics gathered, but has the fewest tasks on the panel, all of which are about killing ordinary first-level zombies.

The upper right corner clearly states how D-level regional permissions can be upgraded to C-level or above regional permissions.

That is, if you complete 20 D-level tasks, you can enter the C-level area; if you complete ten C-level tasks, you can enter the B-level area; if you form a superpower team, become one of it, and complete ten B-level tasks, you can enter the A-level area; if your superpower team ranks among the top fifteen in the base and completes three A-level tasks, you can enter the S-level area.

The conditions written above are not difficult to complete, but they are very time-consuming and labor-intensive. No matter how powerful a psychic is, he cannot directly enter the S-level area in just a few days.

With only a few days until the restaurant's gambling agreement expired, this path was clearly a dead end. Qin Simu turned his attention to Wang Jianjun, a staff member at the Mission Center. With so much experience, he should have some clues about whether the Dawn Base had any Level 2 zombies.

With his talkative nature, he would be able to find out as long as he could establish a good relationship with him in a short period of time.

Thinking of this, Qin Simu took out a bag of expiring snacks from his pocket and secretly put it into Wang Jianjun's hand while others were not paying attention, with a slightly flattering smile:

"Brother, I'm new here, and you're the first psychic I've met. Please take good care of me from now on. By the way, do you usually need water? If you don't mind, I'll go to your house and use some of my psychic powers. Although ice isn't as effective as water in this regard, at least it can do the trick."

Qin Simu had no roots in the Dawn Base, and he couldn't expose Lin Luyan's ingredients and cooking skills. After much thought, he felt that using his ice ability as a starting point would be the most appropriate.

The base's water supply was entirely supported by water-based psychics, with most water prioritized for base management or high-ranking psychics. Some psychic teams, however, had water-based psychics within their ranks, and thus had more water available than the average psychic.

Qin Simu observed Wang Jianjun for a long time. This man seemed very dedicated. Perhaps his life was difficult and he had to rely on work to make a living. He probably would be more frugal in water consumption.

Wang Jianjun was very pleased with the goodwill shown by the ice-type mutant.

There are seven people in his family, and he is the only one with super powers. Because the family has a large population burden, the super power team looks down on him and refuses to let him join. Finally, through arrangements, he finds a job in the [Mission Center] that can barely provide for the whole family.

Both sides had their own purposes and soon became friends. They were like brothers, arm in arm, and agreed to meet at Wang's house in the evening.

On the way back to his residence, Qin Simu went to the [Residential Center], which was empty except for the staff.
