Seeing the two crystal cores overflowing with rich supernatural energy, not only Fang Yuanyuan was stunned, but even Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai were taken aback.
Are fourth-order crystal cores so worthless now?
Just give it away like that?
Or perhaps, Xiao Li has other motives?
"Uncle Li, what do you mean by this? How can you give them this!"
Fang Yuanyuan stomped her foot and reached out to snatch the crystal core from Xiao Li's hand, wishing she could put it in her own pocket.
Although she appears to be Captain Fang's only daughter and has no shortage of food and clothing, the amount of crystal cores she can obtain is actually limited.
The fourth-order crystal core is extracted from the brain of a fourth-order zombie; it is extremely precious and extremely rare.
It's important to know that the crystal core in the Zombie King's brain is at least level five, making it virtually impossible to kill a Zombie King.
The fourth-order crystal core is nearing completion.
"Give."
Xiao Li frowned, dodged Fang Yuanyuan's hand, and directly stuffed it into Bai Xizhu's hand.
The icy crystal core fell directly into Bai Xizhu's fingers.
Bai Xizhu was slightly taken aback.
"Thanks."
Bai Xizhu put it directly into her pocket and her gaze fell on Xiao Li.
Why not take the crystal nuclei if they're free?
But... this crystal core is a bit too cold.
Having been carried around on Xiao Li's person for so long, and then in his hand for a while, it felt like an ice cube in hers.
Xiao Li had no idea what Bai Xizhu was thinking; he just saw her looking at him and gave her a polite smile.
He can no longer smile from the heart; he can only rely on muscle memory to make his facial expression look like he is smiling.
"Bai Xizhu! You're so quick to accept things, you'll take anything!"
Fang Yuanyuan looked coldly at Bai Xizhu. In her opinion, Bai Xizhu taking Xiao Li's crystal core was the same as taking her own crystal core.
If Bai Xizhu doesn't accept them, these two fourth-order crystal cores will definitely be hers.
"The wind is too strong outside, so don't talk nonsense, or you'll be blown to the ground and eaten by zombies."
Bai Xizhu glanced at Xiao Li, who was only wearing sportswear, and emphasized the word "zombie".
She felt that Xiao Li definitely had a problem, and was very likely... the Zombie King.
This is a woman's intuition.
She was testing the waters, trying to find out what the zombie king's purpose was in infiltrating the human survivor alliance, and whether it was Zhang Yiming's subordinate.
"Hehe, it's not certain who will be eaten by the zombies first."
Fang Yuanyuan gave a cold laugh, and the atmosphere between her and Bai Xizhu grew increasingly cold.
The two of them each spoke a sentence, and every sentence revolved around zombies.
Xiao Li seemed not to hear, his face still bearing a faint smile, showing no reaction whatsoever.
He only reached out to stop Fang Yuanyuan when she tried to make a move.
Soon, Xiao Li drove the wooden plank to the Yunhua Safety Base.
"please."
Li politely asked Bai Xizhu to get down first, and even gestured for her to come down.
Bai Xizhu noticed that Xiao Li's fingers, which had been exposed to the cold wind for a long time, were not frozen red.
Under normal circumstances, it is easy to freeze your hands red when wearing only a sportswear outfit in winter, even for high-level superhumans.
Xiao Li's fingers weren't just ordinary white; they were pale and bloodless.
Bai Xizhu had seen Zhang Yiming and Fan Tangtang's fingers before; they looked like this in winter. No matter how cold it was, they wouldn't turn red from the cold, and they weren't afraid of the cold.
Bai Xizhu naturally took Leng Yebai's hand and gently squeezed it when no one was watching.
Leng Yebai looked at Bai Xizhu, and Bai Xizhu gave him a wink.
Leng Yebai's lips curled slightly, and his dark eyes curved into a smile.
He thought Xiao Zhu was flirting with him.
Leng Yebai's ears turned red, and he gently squeezed Bai Xizhu's fingers.
Feeling the ticklish sensation in her palm, Bai Xizhu blinked.
There's absolutely no chemistry between us!
Bai Xizhu squeezed Leng Yebai's fingers hard, glared at Xiao Li, and then gave Leng Yebai a sharp look.
Leng Yebai's lips twitched slightly, and it took him a long time to slowly nod.
His hand hurt, but he didn't say anything.
"Let's go to our place for a meal today!"
Leng Yebai slowly released Bai Xizhu's hand, took a step back, and walked side by side with Xiao Li.
Leng Yebai's hand visibly turned red, revealing a clear handprint.
"No need, I need to go back and discuss important matters with Captain Fang."
Xiao Li shook his head slightly.
"Is it about that matter? The base commander and I will be there in a bit to discuss it with you," Leng Yebai said.
Since it wasn't appropriate to directly mention the Zombie King in public, Leng Yebai used "that matter" as a substitute.
Both of them could understand it.
"This matter is classified. You and the base commander just need to wait for instructions. The decision-making power rests with Captain Fang." Xiao Li smiled politely and elegantly.
Leng Yebai didn't insist on saying anything more, but he subtly moved a little closer to Xiao Li.
The two people were standing very close, shoulder to shoulder.
Xiao Li subconsciously swallowed and took a deep breath.
The scent of flesh and blood on a human body nearly drove him to the brink of madness.
As a zombie who has just become the zombie king, his thirst for blood drives him to madness.
He almost lost control of himself.
Xiao Li deliberately slowed down, creating some distance between himself and Leng Yebai.
Leng Yebai watched Li Wei's barely perceptible series of reactions with surprise in his eyes.
