Chapter 562 Knowing One's Limits

"The disappearance of island nations is unacceptable. One of the author's books was taken down because he wrote about the disappearance of everyday life, so please don't mention it again."

"As for making all the zombies in the country disappear, just like with lumbar muscle strain, it is theoretically possible, but the energy required is too great, making it basically impossible to achieve."

The others were not disappointed by these answers.

After all, they already had the answer in mind when they asked the question.

"However, with this move, sir, you are already capable of defeating all superhumans."

"That's right. And as for the issue of 'Little Days,' I don't think we necessarily have to make them disappear. We can just let the adults take action. God said that those with superpowers in 'Little Days' are not allowed to use their powers. That should solve the problem."

"Wow, Chef Zhao, I really didn't expect you to be so quick-witted."

"There's nothing I can do. My grandfather was a martyr, and I've always hated the mundane aspects of life."

"Sir, you are truly remarkable. No wonder you were able to provide so many supplies to the capital base."

"But speaking of which, could you please have the supplies delivered directly to me, sir?"

Gu Zijing patiently replied, "Theoretically, it is still possible."

"But you don't have enough energy, right?"

"Yes." Gu Zijing nodded: "The supplies for the adults did not come out of thin air, but were found in other cities. It's just that dealing with zombies is easier for her, so she obtained a little more."

"This is not just a little bit, it's a billion bits."

"I think the appearance of adults in the end times is a hope left by God for our country."

"I also think that the adults have given so many supplies to the capital base, it's no exaggeration to call them saviors."

"The master is holding a concert soon, and I must go see it that day."

"Let's go together."

"The Beijing base has more than 300,000 people, but the Bird's Nest can only accommodate more than 90,000. What a pity that the rest of the people can't watch it."

"Hehe, anyway, we're following the adults, so we'll definitely be able to see it. I can record a video and show it to them later."

On the other side, Luo Han pulled Bai Liuyun up from her kneeling position: "Liuyun, what are you doing?"

"Become an apprentice, what else could it be?"

"It's not you..."

"Isn't this good enough for me?" Bai Liuyun looked at Luo Han strangely. "If you could take me as your disciple, it would be a good thing for the capital base, wouldn't it?"

"...Be careful. If the adults don't want to, then so be it. Don't pester them."

"I know what I'm doing."

Luo Han: "..."

You have a sense of propriety.

Luo Han had a headache again.

This brat is such a worry!

Bai Liuyun patted Luo Han on the shoulder: "Alright, Brother Luo, it's getting late, I'll head back now. I'll come back tomorrow."

"..."

Bai Liuyun left, the questioning ended, and everyone went back to their rooms.

Luo Han pulled Pei Yi aside, and Pei Yi looked at him: "Captain Luo, is something the matter?"

"Um, I heard what you were saying just now."

"Then?"

"Sir, how much energy would she need to wipe out all the zombies in this country?" Luo Han asked somewhat embarrassedly. "If possible, could we perhaps pool our resources by uniting the various bases to gather some crystal cores?"

"It's unlikely. Although I don't know the specifics, I asked my sister about this before. It would require hundreds of millions of crystal cores. With that many crystal cores, we could have wiped out most of the zombies, right?"

Hearing this, Luo Han felt somewhat disappointed.

He had wanted to ask this question before, but it wasn't easy to ask. Today, someone else asked it, so he just casually followed up with it.

"I see. It seems I was just assuming things."

“Of course,” Pei Yi continued, “Moreover, as the level of the zombie increases, the energy required will also increase. For example, the energy required to deal with the zombie king in the capital base is definitely different from that of an ordinary level one zombie. You are an ability user, so you should understand. Moreover, the human body cannot withstand so much energy.”

Luo Han understood the metaphor perfectly.

Indeed, the energy required to kill a level 1 zombie is incomparable to that required to kill a level 5 zombie.

Even level one zombies can be killed simply by brute force.

Moreover, he also overlooked the issue of human energy.

"I see."

Luo Han actually understood as well.

The apocalypse is not something that can be ended by individual effort. He clings to this sliver of hope only because Ling Ran's superpower is so extraordinary.

...

the next day.

It just so happened to be the day the Beijing Weekly was published, and its front page featured a record of Ling Ran and Bai Liuyun's sparring match.

Who will prevail between the old and new number one?

However, this is not the title.

The title is: The adult defeated Bai Liuyun with just one sentence!

Bai Liuyun's fans were instantly outraged when they saw this headline.

No, you higher-ups want to curry favor with that big shot, but there's no need to go to such lengths, is there? What about everything Bai Liuyun did for the Beijing base? Even if he didn't achieve great things, he certainly put in a lot of effort!

You discard them after they've served their purpose; Beijing base, you're truly disheartening!

After the initial anger subsided, he continued reading the newspaper, still holding back his thoughts, followed by: "???"

What?

This sparring session was so short, just a single sentence? Bai Liuyun didn't even have a chance to make a move before being defeated?

This headline isn't an exaggeration, but actually the truth?!

silence.

Everyone fell silent.

They had always thought Bai Liuyun was the strongest in the capital base, but now they saw a powerful figure who gave Bai Liuyun no chance to even make a move.

So, if Bai Liuyun can't defeat the zombie king, can this adult defeat him?

Bai Liuyun's fans couldn't help but wonder:

They were looking at the newspaper as they thought about it, but the next headline made their eyes widen in surprise.

The magistrate generously donated 5,000 tons of rice and flour to the Beijing base free of charge!

What?

Five thousand tons?

A gift without compensation?

This adult seems to be quite nice.

Bai Liuyun's loss was not unjust.

Some of the adult fans were speechless, saying, "You guys just said that the Beijing base was a disgrace to the company, and that it was heartbreaking."

Bai Liuyun's fans pretended not to hear it.

No, they're not Bai Liuyun's fans anymore, they're the adults' fans now.

Does the word become law?

This superpower is so cool.

Only the strongest can become their idols!

The next news is that the adult will be holding a concert at the Bird's Nest, and tickets will be released in three days.

Everyone immediately became excited.

The concert is finally coming to their Beijing base.

The fact that the concert was being planned at the provincial capital base was naturally not kept secret from the people at the Beijing base, who had been looking forward to it.

This has nothing to do with whether they are Bai Liuyun's fans or not.

They simply wanted to go to the concert to vent their frustrations and belt out a song. In this apocalyptic mess, they couldn't survive a single day longer.
