We have officially entered the hottest phase. The high temperatures are not dropping and the heat is unbearable. However, thanks to the advance preparations made by various bases and the new cooling products available at Quanyou Supermarket, the situation is much better than expected.
Teams with strong capabilities and financial resources will also take advantage of this time to go out and collect more crystal cores.
However, the vast majority of survivors still couldn't afford thermal suits or protective suits, and couldn't withstand the intense ultraviolet rays and scorching temperatures outside. They had stockpiled supplies and stayed at home to avoid the heat.
Many superpowered teams seized this opportunity to recruit talent and expand their ranks.
For example: If you join my team, the team will give you an advance on crystal cores to buy a constant temperature suit.
The zombies are leveling up during this period, which is their 'weak period'. If we wait until the extreme heat is over and the zombies have leveled up, it won't be as easy to fight them as it is now.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to farm more crystal cores is definitely a good deal.
Some even started lending out crystal cores and charging interest.
Of course, it's not something anyone can just borrow; it requires several guarantors, and they must be prominent figures in the base, or there must be conditions such as collateral.
Anyway, there's no way those people can't come up with a solution.
When Xin'er is bored, she releases her soul power to observe everything happening in the base.
Those activists all caught her attention.
It has to be said that some people are born businessmen. No matter where they are or what environment they are in, nothing can stop them from moving upwards.
When Tan Jingrui brought Xin'er lunch, he casually suggested:
“Sister Xin, fewer and fewer people are coming to the supermarket these days. Sometimes there are only one or two customers a day. I just contacted other bases and the situation is similar.”
"I want to rearrange the shifts for the supermarket employees and give them a break during this downtime."
Xin'er was watching a movie on her tablet, and she nodded when her head was lifted slightly.
"No problem. They've worked hard since the opening, so you can arrange it as you see fit."
"Okay, I'll make the arrangements right away, and we'll start implementing it tomorrow."
As Tan Jingrui spoke, he had already placed the food on the table. Seeing that Xin'er was still lying on the sofa and showed no sign of moving, he noticed...
"Sister Xin, Chef Sun made your favorite cola chicken wings. How do they taste?"
Before she could finish speaking, Xin'er looked up and put down the tablet. "Okay."
The supermarket wasn't busy these past few days, and Sister Xia was at another base, so Tan Jingrui became Xin'er's personal assistant.
Xin'er's eating habits are such that she eats whatever she wants when she feels like it, and sometimes she doesn't eat for several meals in a row.
She rarely felt hungry, but Tan Jingrui and the others didn't know that and were worried sick about it...
When Tan Jingrui saw her sit down at the table and prepare to pick up her chopsticks, his eyes crinkled into a smile, an unconscious joy welling up inside him.
"Enjoy your meal, I'll come back to clear the dishes later."
Xin'er nodded. She had eaten with Sister Xia and the others before, and she liked having a lot of people around.
After the supermarket opened, everyone became busier and had fewer and fewer opportunities to eat together. Now, everyone eats separately.
She often has little appetite and eats less and less frequently.
Another reason is that she gradually merged with this body. In addition to her appearance becoming more and more similar, she slowly returned to the state of her previous world, without feeling hungry or tired.
Xin'er was bored, so she decided to go out and have a look.
When Tan Jingrui came to clear the table, Xin'er greeted him.
"I'm going out for a bit later, so I'll tell Master Sun not to cook for me for the next few days."
Every time she said she was going out, she never gave a specific time when she would return, and Tan Jingrui and the others got used to her unpredictable whereabouts.
"Okay, then I'll tell Sister Xia that Wenwen can stay with her for the next couple of days?"
Xin'er nodded. "Mm."
Wenwen brought back more than sixty mutated beasts. She immediately fed them with spiritual spring water and had the 'old employees' in the space take them to the pond to wash them clean.
They were all very energetic and ate more than the others, so Xin'er felt she couldn't let them be idle.
When Carl and his group left, each of them carried a teleportation stone, which served as a kind of location coordinate.
Their coordinates were not located in China, and were particularly noticeable among the teleportation arrays.
Xin'er randomly selected a location and teleported there.
The crystal cores in China are so sought after that it feels like even zombies aren't enough to fight them. So, I'll take the mutated beasts out to train and check on the situation on the other side of Zhan Yi.
After leaving Country Y, the Zhan Yi group went to investigate the places that Xin'er had circled earlier, one by one.
On Haci Peninsula, the vulture gasped in surprise as it saw Xin'er suddenly appear before it.
"Sister Xin! Sister Xin, what brings you here?!"
Xin'er glanced around at her surroundings. "Did you come here just to check on things? Are you all alone?"
Vulture was already a loudmouth, and now that he saw Xin'er, he got even more excited and his voice was even louder.
"The boss and the others are nearby. I'll call them over!"
Before he could even utter a sound, Xin'er, without needing to unleash her soul power, could already hear someone approaching from afar.
"Someone's coming, you don't need to shout."
Vulture scratched his head sheepishly, agreeing with whatever Sister Xin said, and refusing to shout if she didn't want to.
He enthusiastically and proactively explained the current situation to Xin'er.
"Sister Xin, this is Hazi Island. We arrived yesterday. The rest of the people are at the camp. After we return to Y Country, we'll meet up with Gavin and the others..."
Before Xin'er could even ask, Vulture had already recounted everything that had happened to them these past few days.
