In his previous life, Chen Run had already developed his spatial abilities quite thoroughly.

It can even manipulate the entrance to the supernatural space to close it when the enemy is halfway in.

It can cause damage from spatial cutting to the part of the enemy that enters; any contact with spatial energy will result in death or serious injury!

However, by then, high-level superhumans will not have a weak sense of danger.

Once they sensed the danger, they wouldn't fall for Chen Run's ambush.

However, it is indeed a divine skill when used to deal with zombies or low-level mutated beasts.

Huang Zhao only needs to focus on the effect of combining mental and spatial abilities when manipulating Chen Run.

For example, a spatial blade that can be released from the hand, or a teleportation that can be located using the mental perception area.

These are all fusions that can greatly enhance Chen Run's spatial abilities.

Huang Zhao pondered in his mind.

Ten minutes later, Alice in front of him stopped using her powers.

Zheng Lan, who was originally covered in wounds, has recovered completely and the injuries she suffered have been healed.

Zheng Lan frowned, as if she was about to wake up.

Seeing this, Huang Zhao turned to Ning Chuxia and said:

“In early summer, you should have a good talk with her and see if she should continue to go out and hunt zombies or stay in the city. I respect your opinion.”

Since everyone present was a girl, Huang Zhao didn't linger and manipulated Chen Run to teleport away again.

Huang Zhao didn't care how Ning Chuxia would explain to Zheng Lan that she had become his woman.

Teleport back to the industrial park, to the area where the digging team is resting.

By this time, everyone had finished resting and was taking turns clearing away the zombies that were rushing towards them after smelling the large number of living people.

"Let's keep going!"

"Roar!"

King Kong took the lead and smashed open the metal gate of the industrial park.

They knocked all the zombies behind the door away, clearing a path forward.

Behind them, the convoy followed in an orderly fashion, heading towards the next marked location.

As night approached, after the 12th pit was dug, Huang Zhao announced that the day's hunting operation was over.

At this moment, they were located nearly 20 kilometers east of Dawn City.

This area is less than 20 kilometers from downtown Shanghai and is also where the zombie density begins to increase significantly.

After a full day of fierce fighting, the digging team's efficiency improved significantly.

They exceeded Huang Zhao's plan to dig 10 pits on the first day.

The cost was that nearly 300 people absorbed the energy to restore their superpowers, consuming nearly 50,000 level-zero energy crystals.

Earth-type ability users almost immediately absorb and release their own abilities after their internal energy is depleted, with virtually no pause.

The same applies to the members of the hunting team responsible for stopping the zombies.

The only harvest, besides the pits he had dug, was the crystals that Huang Zhao occasionally killed and collected into his ability space.

In terms of the total energy of the crystals alone, they are roughly equal.

Once all the zombies in Shanghai are cleared out, Huang Zhao estimates that he will never lack level zero energy crystals again.

"No, Dr. Yuan's energy crystal upgrade device consumes a lot of energy..."

Based on consumption, one level 3 energy crystal requires 8,000 level 0 energy crystals!

How many level 5 energy crystals can be synthesized from 20 million level 0 energy crystals in Shanghai?

You can only synthesize about 6!

Huang Zhao felt that he would earn money faster by honestly hunting high-level mutants.

Moreover, it remains to be seen whether this synthesis instrument can synthesize a fourth-level energy crystal.

Whether the synthesized Level 4 energy crystal can break through the barrier for the survivors remains to be seen.

In his previous life, Chen Run had paid almost no attention to this kind of information; otherwise, he could have given Dr. Yuan some advice by now.

Huang Zhao issued a retreat and regrouping command on the terminal, which was sent to all the survivor terminals that were carrying out missions outside.

From the air, many survivors could be seen returning from all four directions of Dawn City.

The clamor of the zombies gradually subsided and then returned to calm.

Only a dozen or so charred smoke trails burned continuously, reaching straight into the sky.

The zombie incineration pit will continue to burn until it can no longer hold any more zombies, at which point it will be cleaned up.

The zombie cleanup plan in Shanghai is proceeding smoothly.

When they returned to the shelter, Zheng Lan had already left.

Huang Zhao promoted her to an inner-city member and assigned her a suite.

Seeing Huang Zhao come out of the lounge, Ning Chuxia explained with a slightly flushed face:

"Alan decided to continue hunting zombies."

"Also, I transferred the access to a maid android to her, and I'll owe her 100,000 points for now."

Huang Zhao looked at Ning Chuxia with some surprise, "You still owe her? Why don't you just give her one?"

Alice covered her mouth and laughed, "Sister Zheng Lan said she doesn't want anything you give her; she'll save up enough points to redeem it herself."

"It seems she still has a lot of opinions about me. Maybe I should cancel her suite and inner-city status and let her try to make a living."

Hearing Huang Zhao's words, Ning Chuxia immediately became anxious and stepped forward to take his hand, "Senior brother~"

Huang Zhao patted Ning Chuxia's head. "I was just kidding. If she wants to pay it back, she can pay it back slowly. It's fine if she moves into the shelter directly."

The four sat in the restaurant, chatting about how their plans for the day were going.

"The situation at the incineration pits cannot be accurately assessed throughout the day, but a conservative estimate is that no fewer than 500,000 zombies were burned today."

"The members who went out of the city to hunt zombies have also killed more than 500,000 zombies after their strength improved and they obtained firearms."

"We've eliminated a million zombies today!"

Huang Zhao was somewhat taken aback when he heard this data.
