Chapter 120 Upgrade Upgrade

Here, Xu Sa was busy improving the status of his own team. The people from the Li and Gu families in the base were simply furious. They had just received the news and were thinking about improving their own people's abilities in advance, but someone leaked the news and they didn't gain any advantage at all.

"Those people in the only team are here to go against me." Li Ling threw the teacup beside him when he heard the news reported by his subordinates.

He exchanged supplies with the base for Li Ji's group of traitors, but before he could get any benefits, the psychics disappeared. Not only did he lose the supplies, but he also had to support the rest of the rubbish.

He had just replaced several hundred barrels of water and before he could raise the price, heavy snow came. Then water-related supernatural powers appeared in droves as if they were free, and the supplies he had taken out were like free gifts.

Now that he had just learned about the crystal core, he had no time to make use of it, and the news leaked out, so he gained no fame or fortune.

"Brother, do you think that Li Ji and the others disappeared because they were killed by Zhuang Mingxu? Didn't Li Ji say that he broke Zhuang Mingxu's leg? It is impossible for Zhuang Mingxu to remain indifferent to such a deep hatred." Some people below have been saying that Li Ji ran away with the psychic, but Li Xiao thinks this possibility is too low.

Li Ling took a deep breath and calmed down. "Even if they killed him, we can't say anything without evidence. You should hurry up and send someone to Dongshan County to find out where the arms left by Li Ji are."

"I understand. What should we do next?" Li Xiao asked.

"What can we do? Continue doing our own work. Now that the truth has been exposed, let the people below go out to hunt zombies, especially those from the only team that joined us." Li Ling drank the changed water and said lightly, "It's a waste to keep useless people alive."

The heavy snow had only passed a few days ago, and not many people went out to look for supplies. In addition, not many people knew that there were crystal cores in the bodies of zombies, so no one went out to look for them on purpose. The trading hall only sold a pound of pork in one day and exchanged it for ten crystal cores.

Fortunately, a group of people have been shouting for a whole day, and now probably the entire base knows that crystal cores can enhance superpowers. Business will definitely pick up soon.

Thanks to Zhuang Mingxu's strict plan, things in the base were back on track in two days. The weather returned to normal, and going out to look for supplies was once again on the agenda.

The night before departure, everyone gathered for a meeting.

Zhuang Mingxu held a list of supplies and two hand-drawn maps that he had drawn these days. "This is a list of the supplies we need to find, and they are ranked according to their urgency. These past two days, I asked someone to inquire about the new maps of Qingyuan City and the surrounding counties and towns, as well as the distribution of the mall factories. I made a plan based on the new maps. You can all take a look first."

"Given that we will not be short of food in the short term, the first thing we need is medicine, which is a non-renewable item and will definitely be needed at any time in life. All the pharmacies in the community streets that I marked with red pen above are for us to seize the opportunity and collect the supplies from each pharmacy first."

"The second is salt," Zhuang Mingxu pointed to a place nearby on the map, "Qingyuan is not near the sea, and most of the salt is provided by the salt wells in Zhoujia County. The weather is hot, and people consume a lot of salt in their bodies. In the future, salt will definitely become another scarce material after food. However, people from Zhoujia County said that the salt wells disappeared after the earthquake. I have been inquiring about the specific information recently. We will see whether we need to make a trip there depending on the situation."

"The next ones will definitely be rice, flour, grain and oil. These are several large production factories, including a flour mill. I heard that people from the Li family have already been there. We should be out of flour, so we can take the machines back. We still have some wheat in our hands, and we can produce some later, which should be useful when the time comes."

"There are all kinds of fast food snack processing factories gathered here. And this corner, I heard, is full of small workshops that do processing on behalf of others. You can go and have a look when the time comes." Zhuang Mingxu pointed at the map and introduced them to everyone one by one, and finally concluded.

"In short, the current situation is that we lack everything. We just bring back whatever we see. If we don't have food or daily necessities, we will bring back machines if we can. There will always be a time when they will be useful. If they are really useless, we can exchange them with others."

This is really the same principle as in the previous life, except that their space was not big in the previous life, so Zhuang Mingxu could only try his best to ensure food and drink. He could only look at the minor things and sigh that there was no place to put them.

After determining the general direction of material collection and finalizing the search area for tomorrow's trip, Lu Weiyi took advantage of everyone being present and said, "Let me briefly tell you about the direction of your supernatural power training."

"First of all, it's the earth-related ability. I suggest that you first condense the surrounding soil to form an earth shield and earth spikes. When you go out to look for supplies, you can directly use the ability to move some buried materials. This way, you don't have to move them, which is most efficient. The second thing is to practice density." Seeing that Xiong Jie didn't understand, Lu Weiyi said in plain language, "That is, hardness. Loose earth thorns are definitely not enough to pierce the zombie's brain, but hard ones are fine. You will have to find the rest yourself."

"Wood element" Lu Weiyi looked at Gu Qingji, "I have already told you that when you go out, you can try to manipulate plants to get things, like this." The little green branch controlled by Lu Weiyi brought a plate of food from the kitchen and put it into the space.

"You can ask him if you have any questions," Lu Weiyi said to Li Dongsheng and Bai Miao.

"Brother Wei Yi, what about me? What about me?" Bai Miao looked at the situation and asked in surprise, pointing at himself.

"If you...if you are afraid to go out, just strengthen your ability to induce labor, and then let Zhuang Mingxu give you some exercises to strengthen your body and make sure you can escape without any problems." At this point, Lu Weiyi remembered something and said to everyone.

"Superpowers can flow, and can be controlled to strengthen a certain part of the body, such as the metal system," Lu Weiyi looked at Antonio, "You can strengthen all your superpowers on your fists to make your fists metal, or a certain part of your body to resist when zombies attack and you can't avoid them. You can also strengthen your legs to increase your escape speed. Different forms of expression will give you different feelings when strengthening. You'd better try them all and master them."

"Especially for the water, wood, and earth abilities which don't have very strong initial attack power, you can strengthen the abilities on your legs and run away very quickly, so at least escape is not a problem. When moving collapsed objects, strengthen the abilities on your hands, which will not damage the skin and will also increase the speed. What you need to pay attention to is that you must understand your own ability capacity and don't use it up directly. Using up the abilities and losing strength is the fastest way to increase your abilities, but it is not recommended because there are dangers everywhere outside. Losing strength means having no resistance and something can happen at any time."

"This is truly a superpower. I'm so envious." Xu Sa said helplessly after listening to him and watching other people with special abilities trying it.

“Brother Sa…will…also…have…something…too,” Liu Rui comforted him.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have it," Xu Sa shrugged and said with a smile, "I'm holding your thigh." He looked at Lu Weiyi proudly, and Lu Weiyi rolled his eyes at him.

"The rest is to attack zombies. The most energy-saving way of attack is to directly attack the zombie's crystal core, which is the position between the eyebrows. It is best to compress the energy to a small amount and attack the zombie's head, which saves time, effort and energy." Lu Weiyi thought about it and had nothing else to say, so he asked, "Do you have any other questions?"

Shen Xing raised his hand, and when Lu Weiyi looked over, he asked, "Crystal cores can enhance superpowers. Can all crystal cores be used?"

Lu Weiyi hesitated and nodded, "Crystal cores with the same attributes have the best enhancement effect, while the others are less effective."

“Fire…fire system…how…how…to compress…compress?” Liu Rui asked.

"Compression of superpowers, this is the same for every system." Lu Weiyi does not have wood-type superpowers, so other people cannot see if he compresses the mental power, and he does not want to be exposed. Finally, he pointed at Antonio and said, "You compress the metal into a blade."

Ever since Antonio knew about his metal-related abilities, his body was covered with all kinds of metal, including on his neck, wrists, and clothes. When he heard this, he immediately took off the ring on his finger, and without seeing what he did, the ring became thin and long.

Lu Weiyi took a pen and drew a line on the solid wooden partition, "Go through here."

The blade in Antonio's hand was swung out instantly, as if supported by an invisible force, and it cut steadily along the line drawn by Lu Weiyi and inserted into the wood again. As Antonio stretched out his hand, the blade returned to his hand again.

"That's what I mean. As for how to compress it, you have to figure it out on your own. It feels like," Lu Weiyi frowned, "trying to squeeze a palm-sized bun into the size of a coin. That's the principle. The smaller it is, the greater the power."

Seeing Liu Rui nodded, Lu Weiyi looked at Antonio and said, "You can't wear metal necklaces. If you encounter a metal-type mutant with a higher ability level than you, they can directly manipulate the metal on your neck to strangle you. It's best for everyone not to wear metal necklaces."

"Also, if someone manipulates their superpowers on a psychic, the psychic will be able to sense it," Lu Weiyi pointed at Lu Xi, "You cover them with your superpowers and let them feel it."

Lu Xi nodded and spread his mental power out. Ning Yuan, who was sitting closest, raised his eyebrows. Then the psychics around him all felt an invisible energy approaching them.

"Ordinary people can't feel it," Lu Weiyi said, "This is the feeling of psychic abilities covering your body. Lu Xi's level is low. A powerful psychic can act directly on your brain, like a mental thorn, causing sudden pain in your brain. There can also be invisible energy acting directly on your neck." Lu Weiyi made a gesture of wiping his neck, "It can change your thinking, a bit like mind control."
