Chapter 314 Also a God
Qin Nianshu thought for a moment, "Come back, this batch of zombies isn't enough, I need to select a few more batches."
Tang Xiaoyu had a sudden idea. "Then let's go back with you. We're friends. If you need anything or want to eat anything, just tell me and we'll find it for you."
Peng Lihui and Song Fei were thinking that they were finally free from these little devils, so why should they still follow her?
But then he thought about it again and guessed what Tang Xiaoyu was thinking, so he quickly agreed.
"Yes, yes, we're friends, let's go together."
"We love playing with you."
Qin Nianshu smiled and said, "Alright then, let's go back together."
So Qin Nianshu rode on the zombie's shoulder and led the way, with the three of them following behind.
Behind the three of them was an army of zombies, heading towards the northern suburbs.
The level 2 zombies are much faster now; they are no longer as slow as before and can move quickly and nimbly.
If you look at it from a distance, this large group doesn't look like stiff zombies at all; it looks like a group of people hurrying along.
Qin Nianshu controlled the zombies, which surged into the wind turbine generator that Meng Shiwan had set up beforehand.
The zombies pushed the modified fan blades slowly in one direction.
With the collective effort of many zombies, the wind turbine began to slowly start running.
Kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy, which begins to supply power to the Dawn Base.
Tang Xiaoyu and the other two stood not far away, watching the zombies vigorously push the device, somewhat stunned.
Peng Lihui was dumbfounded. "Last time I saw the base commander take these devices out of his spatial storage and put them on the open ground outside, I was curious about what they were for. So this is how they're used?"
Song Fei looked at it again and again. "This looks like a wind turbine fan, except the fan is lying on the ground, and the flat blades have turned into round columns. Instead of wind power, it's now propelled by zombies."
But the principle remains the same: as long as it's rotating, it can be converted into electrical energy for use.
Tang Xiaoyu exclaimed, "What a brilliant idea to make use of waste! Using zombies to do the work? What kind of brain did they have to come up with that?"
The word "zombie" evokes fear in anyone who mentions it.
Putting aside the zombies' combat capabilities, the zombie virus they carry alone is enough to make people want to stay away.
Aside from obtaining crystal cores, zombies don't seem to be of much use.
Anyone who could think of using zombies as cattle and horses is a genius.
Thankfully, Qin Nianshu, who can control zombies, is there; otherwise, getting mindless zombies to work wouldn't be so easy.
The crowd in the distance had clearly noticed the commotion.
When such a large wind turbine is in operation, it's impossible for anyone to ignore it.
People turned to look at the situation, and what they saw was quite alarming.
"Holy crap, am I seeing things? What's that pushing the pillar around? Is it a zombie?"
"You read that right, it's a zombie. When did zombies become something you can use for work?"
"That's a great idea. The climate is unstable right now, fuel is precious, and there are lots of zombies. Letting zombies do the work seems like a reasonable idea."
"This is not something an ordinary person can do. I heard that a little girl in Dawn Base can control zombies and use them like cattle. I'm afraid only Dawn Base can do that."
"Don't use zombies, let me push it. As long as you provide food, I can do this job too."
Just as people were watching with curiosity and discussing it, a discordant voice suddenly roared out.
"The base commander of Dawn Base, it was them. They cheated. That little girl clearly didn't need to participate in the selection, but she still helped those three people obtain level two crystal cores. What is this if not cheating?"
"Yes, they're blatantly cheating. That little girl can control zombies, making them kill each other, and she picks up level-two crystal cores like they're free. How can those of us who risk our lives fighting against level-two zombies bear this?"
"This is cheating! Aren't you Dawn Base going to do anything about it?"
"This isn't right, isn't our life valuable? Why can those three people cheat like that?"
Their resentment was so great that they had to shout their grievances.
Even Qin Nianshu and Tang Xiaoyu, who were standing near the wind turbine, could faintly hear some resentful voices. Coupled with the many people looking at them with questioning eyes, they were certain that the atmosphere was not one of praise.
There must be someone talking badly about them.
Qin Nianshu, being a sensitive child, immediately retorted angrily, "Who, is someone talking badly about me? I hate it when people talk about me behind my back."
The three people next to him nodded quickly.
"I felt something was off. The way those people were looking at us didn't seem like they were just watching something interesting. Someone was definitely cricketing at us."
“It’s okay for us to cricket, but it’s wrong for our little sister to cricket. Let’s go take a look.”
"Exactly, crickets are such little kids, they really have no shame."
Fueled by the three of them, Qin Nianshu became even angrier. "Let's go. You guys aren't good enough for Ququ. I want to see who has a death wish."
The crowd who had complained to Meng Shiwan became even more anxious as they watched the demon child walk towards them.
"Base Commander, say something! How should cheaters be punished?"
"They're collecting crystal cores, that's even more outrageous than cheating."
More than a dozen people were jumping around like monkeys, shouting and yelling in front of Meng Shiwan.
They were all envious before, and then they saw Qin Nianshu kill someone and ran away in fear. But they were still unwilling to give up, so they came back to complain.
Meng Shiwan remained expressionless and asked calmly, "What are our selection rules?"
The dozen or so people were stunned.
"The top two thousand in terms of the number of secondary crystal nuclei have passed the selection process."
Meng Shiwan then asked, "Anything else?"
The group was puzzled, wondering why Meng Shiwan asked that question.
They thought about it and realized something was wrong. "That's all. They said the top two thousand would advance."
Meng Shiwan raised an eyebrow. "So, what kind of cheating did they commit? What kind of rule did they break?"
How many people: ? ? ?
No, something seems off here, doesn't it?
Qin Nianshu was slightly taken aback when she heard Meng Shiwan's words as she arrived.
What does the base commander mean by this? Is he protecting her?
Suddenly I feel like the base commander is actually a pretty nice guy.
In the past, when her classmates reported her to the teacher, the teacher would always scold her.
Now someone has submitted a report to the base commander, and the base commander is actually speaking up for her.
It feels pretty good to be unconditionally protected.
Qin Nianshu instantly gained confidence. She pointed at the group and yelled, "I'm asking you! What rules did I break? What cheating did I commit? Tell me!"
Those people were furious.
"You helped those three obtain so many level-two crystal cores, isn't that cheating?"
