Five years into the apocalypse, Zhuang Mingxu, the strongest ability user in the safe zone, was killed by his so-called “family.”
Lu Weiyi, who had been indifferent to everything for over...
Chapter 191: Su Yan Cries Poor
While Lu Weiyi and his group were having dinner, Xu Sen in the base was thinking about how to get the news. Although the team is poor now, they are short of supplies. Crystal cores, which are equivalent to money, are all carried with them. Five thousand is a bit too much, but they are not unaffordable.
He was not sure whether the news was true or not. On the other hand, if he sold the crystal core alone, he was not sure whether Lu Weiyi would tell Su Yan privately, which would make his money worthless.
After much thought, he decided to discuss the matter directly with the major parties in the base.
Besides the Xu family, the only people in Hope Base now are Su Yan from the police station, the Wolf Warriors team led by Gao Tianpeng, and the middle school-like Meng Da's Dark Night King.
The management of the base is not perfect, and there are occasional frictions among the four forces. The external threats have not been resolved, but the situation has not become tense.
Not long after Xu Sen notified everyone, people from all directions arrived.
"Master Xu, what is it that you have to say right now while we are having dinner?" Before Meng Da even entered the door, the complaints were already audible.
"Is it about upgrading?" Su Yan heard Wang Ming say that, and then Xu Sen invited him, so he thought it was just this matter.
Unlike the others who were followed by men, Gao Tianpeng was followed by a young girl who looked very delicate. He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Xu Sen and Su Yan. "What upgrade?"
Xu Sen invited the three parties to sit down, and then said, "Someone gave me a message that knows a way to survive the upgrade, but it requires 5,000 crystal cores. I want to ask if anyone is willing to join together to buy it."
"How accurate is it?" Gao Tianpeng asked, squinting his eyes.
Xu Sen glanced at Su Yan and said, "Not sure, but I think it's at least 80% certain."
"Feeling? Haha..." Meng Da sneered, "I still feel it's unreliable."
Xu Sen ignored him and looked at Su Yan, who was most likely to get the information for free. "What do you think, Director Su? Do you want to cooperate?"
"Sure," Su Yan answered readily. What the teams lacked now was supplies, but not crystal cores. The amount a person could absorb in a day was limited, so most of them were kept for circulation.
Even if he provided the five thousand crystal cores by himself, it wouldn't be that difficult, not to mention that they were working together. Of course, he could also buy it on his own, but it would be hard to prevent information from being leaked, so it would be better to cooperate openly now.
Gao Tianpeng looked at the two of them again and said, "Do you know the person who provided the information?"
Su Yan and Xu Sen nodded.
"I'll think about it. After all, our team is a bit poor," Gao Tianpeng said with a smile, not feeling embarrassed at all.
"Don't you consider the authenticity? What if it's fake?" Meng Da looked at the three people who directly passed him and seemed to have the intention of reaching a cooperation, and felt a little anxious.
Fang He, who was still with him, stopped him from shouting and said, "I think even if it's an acquaintance, we still need to verify the authenticity of the news. We are not afraid of false news, but we are afraid of false news causing harm. What if there is any harm after the experiment..."
He looked at the expressions of Xu Sen and Su Yan, pondered the depth of their relationship, and continued, "We bought the news together, but it should not be too much to ask them to verify its authenticity. Why don't we discuss it together."
verify? How to verify? Is it possible to upgrade someone's level?
Su Yan and Xu Sen both felt that it was unreliable, but they did not express different opinions, and now they are considered partners. The people from all directions immediately marched towards Lu Weiyi's place. During the march, Su Yan quietly asked Wang Ming to bring more people.
Outside the base, there was only one place where people stayed. When a group of people went out, they saw two trucks surrounding a large field tent. There was a rope around the perimeter with a circle of washed and hung clothes. If you listened carefully, you could even hear the roar of a washing machine.
The group looked at each other.
In the end, Su Yan took the lead and walked over, shouting from afar, "Captain? Lu Weiyi?"
"Brother Su" Lu Xi was rinsing clothes in a large basin. When he heard the voice, he looked up and greeted, shouting inside, "Brother, brother, Brother Su Yan is looking for you."
"How is your wife?" Lin Yimu asked while he was busy putting clothes from the washing machine into the basin.
"He's awake, thanks to the medicines Weiyi brought out. I don't have those medicines here, so I wanted to ask the captain what you need. Anything I have will do." The hospital was short of medicines, and it was Lu Weiyi who paid out of his own pocket to save their lives.
"It's okay. The young master said it's a gift. I left in a hurry last time and didn't thank you properly." Lin Yimu said, and shouted inside, "Bai Miao, are there any dirty clothes over there?"
"There are no more shoes left, only a few pairs of stinky shoes. Whose are these? They have really stinky feet. Come here quickly to claim them and wash them yourself. I'm almost suffocated to death," Bai Miao, who was leaning inside, shouted, covering his nose.
"Then I won't be polite." Su Yan was short of supplies now, so he didn't go for the big guy. "Captain, are you guys...cleaning up?"
"The young master said that you guys should come over in the afternoon. Since you can't leave, we should hurry up and wash the dirty clothes that have accumulated during this period of time." Lin Yimu said as Lu Weiyi pushed Zhuang Mingxu out.
Seeing the group of people following behind Su Yan, he asked, "You guys want to buy together?"
"The news is in your hands?" Before Su Yan could answer, Meng Da looked at the group of people and asked.
Lu Weiyi nodded.
Gao Tianpeng was also quietly looking at the group of people. At the same time, a wave of energy came from the group of people. They were all trained by psychic abilities. Almost all the psychics noticed it. They looked at each other, and seeing that Lu Weiyi didn't say anything, they silently pretended to know nothing.
"We have all decided to buy the news, but Captain Meng is worried about its authenticity and wants to verify it." With just one sentence, Xu Sen pushed the mastermind of this matter onto Meng Da.
Meng Da didn't hear it at all, and Fang He, who followed him, just had his eyes flashing but said nothing.
"How to verify? Help you upgrade one?" Lu Weiyi glanced coldly at the people present, paused, and said, "Sure, there is only one crystal core, you can discuss which team should do the experiment."
"Why don't you go and rob?" Meng Da expressed everyone's thoughts.
Even the people in the only team thought it was simply heartless, but since they could enjoy it themselves, naturally no one said much and they were all secretly excited.
Wu Yue sneered, crossed his arms, stood behind Lu Weiyi, and said contemptuously, "If you can't afford it, just get out."
"Fuck!" Meng Da said, and immediately planned to take action. The people around him who were doing their own things stood up and gathered around. Before a conflict broke out, Meng Da was stopped by Su Yan.
"If you want to buy, talk nicely. If you don't want to buy, leave immediately." Su Yan's face turned cold. At this time, everyone realized that many of the people with special abilities standing around were actually from the police station.
Obviously this needs to be protected.
Gao Tianpeng raised his eyebrows but said nothing. Xu Sen had a calm expression, as if he had expected it. Meng Da was also caught by Fang He who followed them and apologized on his behalf, "Sorry, sorry, our captain was a little impulsive."
Is this called impulse? This guy is obviously a fool.
The group said this silently in their hearts, but did not say it out loud. Lu Weiyi looked at the others and said, "We are leaving tomorrow morning, so make a decision before tonight." After that, he ignored the people present.
Meng Da was so angry that he took his men away immediately. Su Yan stayed to chat with Lin Yimu. After Xu Sen said hello to Zhuang Mingxu, he left with Gao Tianpeng.
"Director Su seems to have a good relationship with them," Gao Tianpeng suddenly said on the way.
"The captain and comrades of Director Su's troops are inside," Xu Sen said with a smile on his face, like a mask, and meaningfully, "There is naturally no possibility of a conflict."
"Oh?" Gao Tianpeng groaned, and the two walked slowly towards the base. "Master Xu, do you think five thousand crystal cores are worth it?"
The Wolf Warriors and the Dark Night King are both teams that emerged after the flood. Their crystal core storage is not as strong as that of the Xu family and the police station, and it is unlikely that either party can afford 5,000 crystal cores. If they want to make the most profit, they can only think of other ways.
Now that he saw that Su Yan's approach was blocked, he thought about finding out what Xu Sen meant.
Xu Sen's gentle face showed no signs of his thoughts, he simply replied, "It's worth it as long as I can upgrade smoothly."
"Time is limited, I will go back and discuss with the team first. Captain Gao, please do as you wish." Xu Sen naturally could not fail to hear that Gao Tianpeng was trying to explore cooperation, but he was facing Lu Weiyi and his group, so he instinctively did not want to conflict.
Before the end of the world, his ability was not as good as Zhuang Mingxu's. After the end of the world, he suffered losses at the hands of Lu Weiyi. Now that they have the secret to upgrading, their own people will definitely be the first to benefit. It would be a fool's act to take action without being sure of the opponent's strength.
After Xu Sen said goodbye, Gao Tianpeng walked slowly towards his own residential area. His girl followed him up a few steps and he lowered his voice to ask, "Qingya, have you heard any news?"
Lin Qingya frowned and shook her head, "They are all trivial matters, there is no key point."
"Go over and try again now," said Gao Tianpeng.
Lin Qingya nodded, turned into the crowd, and disappeared for a moment.

Outside the base, Su Yan was shamelessly crying poor to Lin Yimu, "Captain, this flood has really washed away all my belongings. You don't know, but the supplies that so many brothers risked their lives for were all gone in just this one flood. I'm so heartbroken."
Lin Yimu listened to him continue his performance with amusement.
"I have finally established a foothold in the base, but now I have to start all over again. Look at that Meng Erlang today. In the past, he didn't even dare to fart in front of me, but now he gets in my face and even openly steals my supplies when he goes out. How am I living now... Alas." Su Yan wiped his face and sighed heavily.
After Wu Yue and Ning Yuan finished brushing their shoes, they asked Li Zhuang, who was sitting on the front of the truck observing the surroundings, to give them some melon seeds. They handed some to Lin Yimu, and the two of them stood opposite Su Yan with a smile on their faces, cracking melon seeds and said, "Come on, continue. Let's see to what extent the field camp can be embarrassed."
