"Here you go!"
The cook sounded somewhat disdainful; he looked down on the crystal core in the zombie's brain.
Only the crystal nucleus in a person's brain can significantly enhance their superpowers.
He didn't care about the zombie's crystal core and never wasted time absorbing it.
But the butcher stall owner doesn't absorb the crystal cores from human brains; instead, he absorbs the crystal cores from zombie brains.
The Butcher was the weakest of the three because he only absorbed these filthy crystal cores.
To be honest, if the Butcher absorbed the crystal cores in the human brain, he would definitely be the strongest among them!
The butcher stall owner smiled and accepted the crystal core, not minding that it was taken from a zombie's brain. Instead, he casually wiped it a couple of times and put it in his pocket.
"Where's the contractor?"
The butcher stall owner looked around the yard and asked.
"He went to find his guests."
The cook responded, then dragged the zombie's body out of the iron cage and dragged it on the ground, leaving a trail of dark blood.
The zombie's rotting, broken body looked like it was about to fall apart, with its limbs barely attached to its body and ready to fall off at any moment, completely lifeless.
He dragged the vines all the way to the edge of the wall, and a greasy smile instantly appeared on the cook's face as he spoke to the vines on the wall.
"Little darling, dinner's ready!"
After speaking, the cook twitched his fingertips, and green light fell on the vines.
The thick, overlapping vines began to wriggle, revealing their roots.
It was only then that Bai Xizhu realized that this was a mutated pumpkin vine. Although it did not bear pumpkins, its large leaves and roots were exactly the same as those of a pumpkin vine!
The roots of the mutated pumpkin vine were a faint black color, and several strands of the roots rushed rapidly toward the zombie corpse.
It swept the corpse away in an instant, and before we could even see how it did it, the zombie was already deeply buried in the roots of the pumpkin vine.
This mutated pumpkin vine was actually drawing nutrients from the corpses of zombies.
I don't know if it's just my imagination, but the pumpkin vines looked even greener under the sunlight, not a lush green, but a deep, dark green.
Dark green, when taken to its deepest point, becomes black.
The cook looked at the pumpkin vines he had painstakingly cultivated with a gratified expression. They had grown from the size of a thumb to now covering the entire wall.
A sense of accomplishment arises spontaneously.
His little darling not only ate a lot of zombies, but also a lot of human superhumans.
When the appetites of those superhumans who buy crystal cores grow bigger and bigger, that's when Xiao Guai will eat.
The higher the level of a superhuman, the more difficult it is to improve their superhuman abilities. To improve to a higher level, they need to absorb higher-level crystal cores.
The cook, butcher, and contractor all lack access to higher-level crystal cores, and they also need crystal cores of a better grade.
Therefore, as the guests' levels increase, they may stop coming to buy crystal cores, since the cooks don't have any either.
That will be the time when the cooks harvest high-level crystal cores.
This deal will never be a loss, and you won't have to hunt those high-level zombies or encounter those terrifying creatures in the ocean.
All you need to do is find a low-level ability user and lure them with methods that quickly enhance their abilities, and they will be willing to pay ten times the price of zombie crystal cores to buy the crystal cores from the human ability user's brain.
This process is repeated.
In just a few months, the cook and the foreman have reached the peak of the fourth tier.
The butcher didn't want to absorb the crystal cores in human brains, but he became a fourth-level superhuman two days ago thanks to his considerable income.
With a heavy heart, the cook turned around and walked towards Bai Xizhu and the other two.
"roar--"
The zombies locked in cages in the courtyard were still roaring silently, their voices low but unsettling.
I wonder if someone would become even more psychologically twisted if they lived in this courtyard every day.
"You must be guests looking to improve your superpowers!" The greasy-looking cook smiled at Bai Xizhu and her companion, pointing to the stone table and chairs in the center of the courtyard. "You've come a long way, have a long journey, sit on the sofa and rest for a while!"
Bai Xizhu glanced at the stone table and chairs, her face twitching almost imperceptibly, but she still slowly walked over with Leng Yebai and sat down on the "sofa".
The cook looked at the two "obedient" people and nodded to himself.
It seems that the two people's brains have been completely clouded by the toxins released by Xiao Guai.
This makes it easier to brainwash customers.
They crammed the idea of ​​enhancing superpowers into their minds, making them frantically harvest crystal cores in the apocalypse, and then exchanged them for crystal cores in the minds of human superpowered individuals.
"You look unfamiliar, so this must be your first time buying something here. In that case, let me give you a little background information." The cook and the butcher sat down opposite Bai Xizhu and her companion with great seriousness and began their brainwashing session.
"The crystal cores you want to buy are the crystal cores from the brains of human ability users. Don't feel guilty. The source of the human brain crystal cores we obtained is legitimate. We are definitely not trying to kill for money! Humans, like zombies, also have crystal cores in their brains. The crystal cores from the brains of ability users are easier for them to absorb, and they can enhance their abilities faster."
"If you want to improve your abilities to a higher level, simply absorbing the crystal cores in the brains of zombies is far from enough. It is very likely that you will not be able to improve to a fourth-level ability even if you absorb more than a dozen fourth-level crystal cores."
"But absorbing the crystal cores in the brains of human ability users is like taking a shortcut. Even if one's talent is not the best, at most five fourth-tier crystal cores are enough to break through!"
