Raven: "Are you serious?"
Zhang Hao: "Seriously."
"Dad, I'm just a crow."
The raven looked resentful, its resistance very strong.
“But you are not an ordinary crow, but a very excellent mutated raven. Low-level zombies are as stupid as idiots, and they will not attack any creature other than humans.”
Zhang Hao argued logically, "So even if there are a large number of zombies, you won't be in danger. Besides, you're very smart now, and collecting crystal cores is very easy for you."
Crows are naturally very good at learning.
Raven, being a "high achiever" in the mental sciences, learned a large number of words in just five days.
Moreover, Zhang Hao had shown it a map of Linhai City before, and Raven memorized all the map details perfectly in just half an hour. It was practically a mobile living map.
Using some simple tools, there's no problem.
Not to mention something as simple as extracting the crystal core.
But Raven still didn't want to go: "What if there's an intelligent zombie like yesterday? It might attack me."
"But you can fly, while zombies can't."
"Even if I can extract the crystal cores, how can I collect them all?"
"That's easy..."
Zhang Hao took a small black backpack from the second floor and slung it around his neck.
To prevent the bag from falling off, he also designed a "fork" shaped strap for the small bag, which was also the perfect size.
The raven was stunned: "Where did this bag come from?"
Zhang Hao smiled: "I altered it overnight; the children's version is perfect for you."
"???"
The raven couldn't hold back any longer.
It just wants to ask one question.
Are you a father or a dog?
I actually modified a pet backpack for it overnight just to collect crystal cores?
"Crow, stand up straight!"
"You're the only mental-type powerhouse in our team."
"This mission was absolutely perfect for you! We'll celebrate your success when you get back; you're the best!"
"..."
Under Fang Ping and Hu Xiaonan's shower of compliments.
The raven eventually went, and returned after two hours.
Since the primary crystal core is only the size of a mung bean, it can be easily contained in a small backpack.
Zhang Hao asked, "How many? There should be two hundred, right?"
"There are not two hundred, only one hundred and eighty-two."
"What happened?"
"When I was collecting crystal cores, I found that some zombie crystal cores near the warehouse had been taken away. It was probably done by that level 2 intelligent zombie from yesterday."
No wonder they killed two hundred zombies but still didn't have enough for two hundred pills.
Zhang Hao felt a pang of anxiety, but then quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
The zombie from yesterday had clearly realized that its own kind could accelerate its own evolution.
As expected, it was only close to level two yesterday, which just happened to be the day it killed so many zombies.
It quietly leveled up by taking advantage of the situation. It wasn't a seasoned level 2 superpowered zombie, otherwise it would have been quite dangerous. Luckily, it was dealt with in advance.
However, it's normal for the differences between awakened individuals to be relatively small in the early stages of the apocalypse.
Once "Thunder Tempering" makes his body stronger, he can release lightning from every pore of his body, forming an extremely strong double-layered defense with his own body.
Zombies of the same level cannot even break through his defenses.
Once he reaches a higher level, he can use lightning to stimulate brain cells, and his neural reaction speed can surpass the limitations of his level, making it possible for him to fight against opponents of higher levels.
Adding to the previous 360, there are a total of 542 first-level crystal cores.
This number is enough for everyone to be promoted to level three.
"Boss, what's the plan next? Are we still going to kill zombies? Or scavenge for supplies?" Fang Ping asked.
"We can't lose either the zombies or the supplies, but the next target is too big. We need to finish assembling the Awakened Squad before we can go. So for now, let's use the Jin Yue residential area behind the supermarket as our looting location. While killing zombies, keep an eye out for talent. If possible, recruit them," Zhang Hao said slowly.
"Okay, shall we proceed now?"
"No rush, I'll go next door and be back in a bit."
Zhang Hao walked out of the supermarket's back door and walked more than ten meters to a barbershop.
The barbershop was called "Erpang Art Hair Salon". He knocked on the back door, but no one answered.
Although he had heard of many top awakened individuals in his previous life, he didn't really know their backgrounds. This barbershop was one of them.
The shop owners are a brother and sister who are both overweight; acquaintances usually call them Big Fatty and Second Fatty.
That's why we chose this name for the store.
He didn't know exactly how the two siblings rose to power, but he remembered that in the early days of the apocalypse, they had already made a name for themselves with the title "Black and White Duo".
The brother and sister awakened to darkness and light, respectively.
The dark-elemental brother is highly skilled in assassination, while the light-elemental sister is initially able to heal allies.
When they worked together, they were extremely efficient at killing zombies, and soon after, they established their own Awakened faction.
The barbershop was not far from his supermarket. Before the apocalypse, Zhang Hao had a good chat with them and could be considered friends with the two siblings.
In her past life, Liu Yun instigated a large number of awakened individuals to attack her.
Although the two siblings were not present in person, they sent several Awakened Squads to support them.
Zhang Hao remembered this kindness, and since the brother and sister were both cheerful and outgoing, he decided to take the initiative to invite them to join his team.
With no response, Zhang Hao chose to break through the defense.
As soon as I stepped inside, three zombies wearing draped aprons greeted me warmly.
