"There are too many unknown behemoths in this world. Even if there are superhumans like Captain Zhang among human ability users, we humans have still fallen from the top of the pyramid."
Bai Xizhu looked at the large crystal core in the wooden box, and through the crystal core, she seemed to see one giant zombie beast after another.
These behemoths are just the tip of the iceberg.
Humans on land are still inferior to zombies and mutated marine life in the ocean.
"Never mind which level of the pyramid we're on, we've made a fortune!"
The base commander took out several eighth-order crystal cores directly from the wooden box, then closed the box and handed it to Leng Yebai.
"I can't rush to Kunlun Mountain. Let me break through another level first! These crystal cores are enough for my breakthrough. You can keep the rest as your dowry!"
The base commander winked at Leng Yebai, and before Leng Yebai could say anything, the base commander strode outside.
Leng Yebai calmly walked up to Bai Xizhu and naturally placed the wooden box in her hands.
It was heavy.
All of them are eighth-order crystal nuclei.
In every safe base, the entire staff can get excited.
In the previous life, even three years later, a single fifth-tier crystal core could cause two secure bases to fight each other.
The crystal cores in the wooden box are all pure eighth-order crystal cores!
That's enough to make a country tremble.
Zhang Gong casually left all of this here, leaving behind a task that wasn't too demanding: just go, don't worry about the outcome.
"These are too expensive, we can't accept them."
Bai Xizhu stuffed the crystal core back into Leng Yebai's hand, indicating that Leng Yebai should return it to the base leader.
Zhang Gong specifically mentioned that he came to see the base chief, without saying that the mission was for Leng Yebai and Bai Xizhu. He directly asked for so many eighth-order crystal cores, which made Bai Xizhu feel uneasy.
This is an eighth-order crystal core!
“It’s alright, we’re all family anyway. If we leave it with him and it gets lost, wouldn’t that be letting an outsider benefit? He has it now, and we can give it to him if he needs it!” Leng Yebai said matter-of-factly.
Why not take advantage of a free lunch?
Once he put it into Xiao Zhu's space, Leng Yebai felt at ease.
Everything is for Xiaozhu!
"Alright!!"
Seeing Leng Yebai's self-righteous demeanor, Bai Xizhu decided to accept it.
Who could refuse a box full of crystal cores?
--I'm quite satisfied.
I always feel that once I put something in my online space, it's mine.
Uh, no, it's about keeping the base chief's son's dowry safe.
Night was falling.
Leng Yebai and Bai Xizhu also came out of the reception room. The two walked side by side and quickly returned to the location of the bus.
Before I knew it, it was already past midnight.
After leaving the Song family villa, I talked with Zhang Gong for a while, and we could already faintly see the first light of dawn rising in the east.
The industrious survivors were already walking around the safe base, hurrying towards the outside to search for supplies.
Everyone in the safe base is now a millionaire; the crystal cores they've collected are enough for them to live on indefinitely.
The supplies at the safe base are limited, and some people have already started raising prices.
Those who know the hardships of the end times do not waste crystal cores, but search for resources to the best of their ability, and use the crystal cores wisely.
Meanwhile, the lazy ones will squander their savings and wait to be brutally beaten by the apocalypse.
I believe that after a long time, the wealthy will remain wealthy, while those who were once wealthy will become as poor as before.
Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai remained silent throughout the journey, their fingers intertwined, conveying a tenderness between them.
Being together is a blessing.
The two of them deliberately strolled slowly, enjoying the pleasant and wonderful moment.
When they arrived at the location where the bus was parked, they discovered that the bus door was still open.
A green garbage truck was parked next to the bus, and the snoring of Grandpa Wang and Grandpa Liu could be heard from afar.
"Grandpa Wang and the others are back!"
Bai Xizhu breathed a slight sigh of relief when she saw the green garbage truck parked there.
Since the zombies attacked the safe base, we haven't seen Grandpa Wang's garbage truck.
They didn't return to the safe base at that time and were kept outside the base.
Although they were powerful, the Bai family was still very worried about them because they hadn't seen them safe with their own eyes.
With communication disrupted, they could only wait for the two elderly men, Wang and Liu, to return to the safe base on their own.
The two elderly men slept very well, and Bai Xizhu and her companion did not disturb them. They would naturally wake up when it was time to eat at dawn.
Leng Yebai opened the car door and boarded the bus with Bai Xizhu.
As soon as she got in the car, Bai Xizhu saw Bai Yifan with dark circles under his eyes.
"Sis, Brother Leng, you're finally back! I was so sleepy!"
Bai Yifan yawned, his eyes filled with sleepiness.
Fearing that his older sister wouldn't be able to get on the bus when she returned, Bai Yifan didn't lock the bus doors.
Fearing that bad people might sneak onto the bus at night, Bai Yifan sat on the sofa in the living room on the first floor, keeping his eyes on the bus door.
I never expected my older sister and Brother Leng to come back so late; I waited all night.
"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Bai Xizhu smiled gently as she looked at Bai Yifan's sleepy face.
When my younger brother isn't acting like a teenager, he's actually quite cute.
"I'm afraid you'll be sleeping on the streets!" Bai Yifan silently rolled his eyes.
As a young lady, she naturally shouldn't stay out all night.
"Don't you know that if I can't come in, I can go into the space to sleep?"
