Chapter 11 Absorbing Crystal Cores and Collecting Supplies

Shen Qianxun took the crystal core out of the space, washed it, and dried it, feeling excited.

According to the description in the book, the person with superpowers only needs to hold the crystal core in his hand and activate his superpowers to absorb the energy in the crystal core and thereby increase his superpower level.

The psychic can also check his or her ability level at any time through consciousness, similar to a progress bar.

The absorption and upgrade process can be fast or slow, ranging from a few minutes to several hours.

The time it takes to absorb the crystal core and upgrade can also show the psychic's talent and final level.

For those with special abilities, level five is a hurdle, and the power of level five abilities is twice that of level four.

As long as you overcome this hurdle, you can completely widen the gap between yourself and most people with special abilities.

The protagonist team is also one of the best.

After being completely absorbed, the crystal core will turn into powder.

If a zombie absorbs the crystal core, most of them will choose to swallow it in one gulp along with the flesh and blood, making it crunchy.

It is not impossible for a psychic to take the crystal core orally, but it will contain some impurities and will not be as pure as the one that can stimulate the absorption of psychic powers.

After finishing his recollection, Shen Qianxun sat on the sofa and first tried to absorb 11 ordinary crystal cores, mobilizing the spatial energy in his body to absorb them.

A warmth surged out from the crystal core, and then a steady stream of energy was transmitted into the body, and then spread along the meridians to all parts of the body.

I felt a red line in my mind, which was rising slowly and visibly with the supply of energy.

Finally, it stopped three-quarters of the way to the second scale line.

Shen Qianxun opened his eyes, looked at the white powder in his hand, then looked at the time on his watch. The whole process took less than a minute.

According to the current situation, to upgrade to level two, only about 40 ordinary level one crystal cores are needed, which is less than the 50 required for the usual upgrade.

I am so happy that I can’t express it in words. There are still benefits to traveling through a book.

He poured the powder into the trash can, clapped his hands, took out two mutant crystal cores, and continued to absorb.

Marshmallow at his feet felt the warmth in the air, tilted his head back, and looked intoxicated. The attraction brought by the crystal core was far greater than that of catnip.

Soon, the mutant crystal core was absorbed and the upgrade progress bar reached the halfway point. Now her spatial ability level has reached the middle stage of level one.

After comparison, it was found that at the same level, the upgrade energy provided by the zombie superpower crystal core is 5 times that of the ordinary crystal core.

They are not crystal cores of the same series as hers. If they were crystal cores of the same series, the energy obtained would probably be even greater.

This is also why there are cases where people with special abilities are hunted down by their own kind. In the apocalypse, strength is king, and in order to level up, many people will do anything, especially those with special abilities who are troubled by their natural talents.

Currently, it takes 20 ordinary first-level crystal cores to upgrade the spatial ability to the second level, which means 4 first-level ability crystal cores are needed.

When the superpower is upgraded to level two, the level one crystal core has little effect on the upgrade and can only serve as the basis for the upgrade. If you want to break through the level limit, you will need a level two crystal core or even a higher level crystal core.

To upgrade a second-level ability to a third-level ability, 500 first-level crystal core energies are usually needed as a basis. In addition, 100 ordinary second-level crystal cores are needed to assist in the upgrade. If there are higher-level crystal cores, it can also help improve the ability faster.

By the same token, to upgrade from level 3 to level 4, you need 1,000 level 1 crystal core energies as a basis, plus 100 ordinary level 3 crystal cores as an upgrade aid.

Upgrading from level 4 to level 5 requires 2,000 level 1 crystal core energies as a foundation, plus 100 level 4 crystal cores as a boost, and at least one level 5 crystal core as an upgrade breakthrough.

If it is a crystal core with supernatural properties or a crystal core of a mutated plant or animal, the number of crystal cores required for upgrading will be greatly reduced.

At the beginning of the apocalypse, the battle between zombies and mutants was relatively even, but as the zombies' levels increased, it became harder for mutants to win in cross-level battles with zombies. Moreover, at the same level, mutant plants and animals had stronger lethality.

This is also one of the reasons why many people with special abilities stay at level four for a long time.

In addition, through upgrades, her space volume has now reached 15,000 cubic meters.

The plan to go to the Spark Base was not because of the original owner's family, but because the book mentioned that many bases in the south would disappear one after another in the zombie tide.

In order to survive better, she must go north, collect enough supplies during this time, and improve her supernatural powers as soon as possible.

In the next period of time, we will first clear out some hotel supplies.

A man and a cat came to the front desk and collected stationery such as paper and pens, as well as a few computers.

Shen Qianxun also found a few posters with stands next to them, but he didn’t have time to put them up.

The poster shows a couple with sweet smiles. Looking at the date above, the wedding is tomorrow. They never expected to encounter this sudden apocalypse.

There is also a pomegranate tree at the door, with more than 10 pomegranates hanging on it, some of which have turned red.

If her space is the static space mentioned in the book, then the fruit trees can be collected, and they will remain the same as they were when they were put in.

As for live animals such as chickens, ducks, and fish, the book describes that they cannot be stored in the space. She also experimented with marshmallows, but still couldn't fit them in.

Before going downstairs, she tested it again. The hot water in the space was still boiling hot, and the water was also ice-cold. Four hours was enough to prove that the space had a freshness preservation function.

I decisively picked up the pomegranate tree, and also picked up a lot of other large and small potted plants.

Next was the tea room. The shelves were filled with various beautifully packaged teas, including Longjing, Pu'er, and Maojian. There were more than 60 cans, each weighing 500-1000 grams. Several sets of tea sets were also taken away.

She doesn't like drinking coffee and usually relies on drinking tea to stay awake. She doesn't like the taste to be too strong, just a little bit is enough.

This amount is enough for her to drink until she dies, and she can still exchange some of it for supplies.

There was also a tobacco shop nearby, and they took everything away.

As for supplies, as long as you are willing to go out, you will get them. It’s first come, first served. In this apocalyptic era, you can buy them for free without feeling guilty.

Currently, she plans to travel alone, but she is afraid of having to stay in this world all the time, so she can build a base when she gets bored.

Then there was the kitchen, which was huge, with several large baskets of vegetables, more than a dozen varieties. It had only been two days since the apocalypse, and although the temperature was over 30 degrees Celsius, the air conditioning was on everywhere in the hotel, so the vegetables were still fresh.

There were also several boxes of fruit, as well as several boxes of noodles, hundreds of kilograms of flour and rice, hundreds of kilograms of chicken, duck, beef, mutton and pork, plus three large freezers filled with steaks, lamb chops, hairy crabs, blue dragon crabs, mantis shrimps, mud shrimps, and various sea fish.

Noodle maker, blender, kitchen knife and cutting board, etc. are all stored in the space.

There are also several large rice cookers next to it, which indicate that the rice will be ready in 20 minutes. She cooked them while making dinner. She loves rice and stocked up some to eat on the way.

Continue to receive goods, more than 200 kilograms of dry goods such as mushrooms, fungus, abalone, scallops, dried shrimps, etc.

12 barrels of cooking oil and five large boxes filled with various seasonings.

All kinds of bowls and plates are collected, they are all brand new and quite exquisite.

I collected 8 large buckets and left a few to collect hot water.

In 8 days, there will be a water and power outage. Thinking about the changes that may happen even faster, she must stock up more water in the next few days.

Finally, after many twists and turns, we arrived at the warehouse on the first floor.

There are three warehouses on this floor. One is for rice, flour, grain and oil, one is for various frozen goods, buns, steamed buns, and various meats, and the other is for vegetables and fruits, which is almost full.

The temptation was too great to resist, so I waved my hand and collected everything into the space without even touching it.

“It’s just as described in the book.”

No need to touch, as long as the distance is right, you can put everything into the space with a wave of your hand.

Continue to collect, tables and chairs, coffee tables, sofas, peanuts and melon seeds, various candies and snacks...
