Chapter 314 Can't we have them all?

The level four psychic zombies they had encountered before were the ones that could run away.

Although they later encountered other level-four zombies with different superpowers, they didn't run away, but they seemed to have some instincts.

Gu Zijing still remembered the level 4 zombie in the small supermarket before going to the Ping An Base. After the adults intervened, the level 4 zombie's movements when attacking them became somewhat stagnant. It should have awakened to some extent, but not much.

It seems inevitable that zombies will develop thinking abilities, at which point human survival will certainly become even more difficult.

Gu Zijing's words made everyone sigh.

When will this end times end?

Pei Xiu didn't think much of it, but reached out and patted the pine tree: "Hey, you old bastard, you're pretty tough! You were the one who ambushed me just now, right? You think I'm easy to bully? Let me tell you, the one who just knocked you down was my sister, my own sister. You've messed with me, you've really kicked a steel plate!"

Wu Tong stepped forward and said, "That's right! Where's the crystal core? You handed it over voluntarily. I never thought trees could become spirits. It's so unfair. Why can't animals have superpowers?"

"You have it, so what are you complaining about?"

Pei Xiu retorted.

Wu Tong thought for a moment, then nodded at his pig-headed head: "Oh yeah, why do I have superpowers? Wait, I'm a human, a human!"

He was somewhat alarmed. Why was he getting more and more used to being a pig lately? Not only that, he was even starting to forget that he used to be a human.

This is terrifying!

Pei Xiu ignored the fool and instead touched the tree, searching for the crystal core. His actions made the pine tree tremble with fear, but it dared not move; it couldn't possibly defeat the person standing behind him.

The power of that sword strike almost made it think it was going to die.

Pei Yi said from the side, "Pei Xiu, don't scare it."

"It's its own fault for ambushing me just now," Pei Xiu said arrogantly. "But what should we do with this tree?"

To be honest, if it weren't for my sister, this tree actually had the power to kill them instantly, but it didn't make a move and instead wanted to drive them away. It was only when Brother Zijing mentioned the crystal core that it decided to kill them.

Pei Yi was also unsure, so he looked at Ling Ran and asked, "My lord, what do you think we should do?"

Upon hearing this question, the tree trembled even more.

If he were more eloquent, he might be kneeling down and begging for mercy right now.

Upon hearing this, Ling Ran gently extended her hand: "Take it yourself. I don't need more than you. Giving you half isn't unreasonable, is it?"

Everyone else looked at Ling Ran with suspicion. What treasure could that pine tree hold? Why give her half, but not the whole thing?

Just as everyone was wondering, a section of the pine tree's bark suddenly cracked open, and a round, green object emerged from it. It looked like a fruit, but everyone quickly sensed a familiar energy within the fruit.

"This is?!"

"Crystal core energy, and it's purified energy without any impurities."

When plants mutate to a certain level, they will produce something similar to crystal cores, just like zombies. However, plants do not have viruses, so their energy is pure and unadulterated.

Everyone's eyes lit up as they felt the energy emanating from the crystal core.

After Ling Ran took the fruit, she looked at Pei Xiu, then at Su Yimo, then at Pei Yi and Zhu Man, and hesitated slightly.

The others who weren't seen by her: "..."

Although I didn't want this fruit, it's heartbreaking to see that even Zhu Man is ranked fourth!

Don't let her appearance fool you; she's a vixen.
