Hearing this made Lu Chen feel a little better, and he nodded.
"The number is correct. Don't worry about the crystal cores; we will deliver them to you as soon as possible."
Seeing that he was talking about crystal cores so openly, Li Xin'er couldn't help but turn her gaze to the two people accompanying him.
Lu Jin'an is a member of the Lu family, and his nephew is the captain of the Dragon Flame Squad, so it's understandable that he knew about it.
Assistant Wang, standing next to him, was still wearing a suit, with a trench coat draped over his arm.
Assistant Wang noticed Li Xin'er's gaze and gave her a respectful and polite nod.
Lu Chen also noticed her gaze and immediately understood her meaning, explaining:
"They're all on our side."
It seemed Lu Chen trusted Assistant Wang a lot; he himself felt everything was fine. Li Xin'er, being an outsider, didn't say much and didn't respond to his comment, instead continuing their conversation about the crystal cores.
"Has President Lu sent anyone to check on things? What's the situation outside?"
Although she discovered signs of the zombies escalating last night, she didn't know how much Lu Chen knew now.
Lu Chen's swift response suggests that everything must have been arranged long ago.
"The Dragon Flame Squad will take charge of this matter; they will set off shortly."
In fact, Lu Chen completely believed Li Xin'er's story about the crystal core.
Because Li Xin'er's transaction required crystal cores, and he had already received the supplies, if the crystal cores couldn't be upgraded, he wouldn't be able to provide enough crystal cores to fulfill his promise.
Wouldn't Li Xin'er be digging her own grave and jumping into it?
Li Xin'er nodded slightly, looked up at the sun in the sky again, and said meaningfully,
"Yes, it's good to do it sooner rather than later; the weather is probably going to change."
"this···"
Her low voice immediately alerted Lu Chen to something was wrong, but he couldn't quite figure out what it was.
Is the world about to change?
He also looked up at the sky, which was clear and cloudless, with the sun shining brightly.
If it weren't for the apocalypse, this would be an absolutely wonderful time of year in winter.
Lu Jin'an, standing beside him, also had deep, thoughtful eyes. He was more direct than Lu Chen, asking Li Xin'er directly.
Will the temperature suddenly drop? Is it going to snow heavily?
The recent temperatures have been quite pleasant, except for the chilly mornings and evenings, with plenty of sunshine at midday. For winter, this is a comfortable and pleasant temperature.
Since the weather is going to change, if the temperature rises, it should be more comfortable and won't affect going out.
That would only mean a drop in temperature, which could also affect going out, and the most likely scenario is a blizzard.
Li Xin'er crossed her arms and looked at Lu Jin'an upon hearing this. Her gaze was like that of an elder looking at a junior who had caught their eye, almost as if she were about to offer a word of praise.
You're pretty good, kid. You reacted quickly.
Finally, under the expectant gazes of Lu Chen and the other two, Li Xin'er nodded.
"Extreme cold and blizzard".
Upon hearing this, all three of them looked troubled. Lu Chen frowned deeply, his hands behind his back unconsciously clenching into fists.
None of the three people questioned Li Xin'er's words. It seemed that, at some point, they had all labeled Li Xin'er as mysterious and powerful.
Secondly, she probably had no reason to lie to them about this.
Lu Chen's tone became more serious as he expressed his gratitude to Li Xin'er:
"Thank you for telling us this. Your message could save countless lives."
To their surprise, Li Xin'er's next words took them quite a turn.
"Since you've already said so and helped, let me add one more thing: it's the same everywhere else, not just in S City, but all over the world."
"worldwide?!"
Lu Chen's surprised voice rose, and his incredulous eyes widened slightly.
Li Xin'er nodded calmly as always. From beginning to end, except when it came to business, she seemed like an outsider when it came to crystal cores.
Lu Chen and the others had a lot of questions. Li Xin'er knew this but didn't intend to give them a chance to ask. After all, that was all she knew. Why would you ask her why?
Should she explain that it was all arranged that way by the author of the book...?
"I have other matters to attend to, so I won't keep you any longer. Remember to collect the crystal cores as soon as possible."
As Li Xin'er spoke, she turned and walked towards the RV. After taking only two steps, she suddenly remembered something, paused, and turned to Lu Chen, saying:
"By the way, you can contact me if you need any supplies."
After giving that reminder, he finally left, satisfied.
She knew that, just like with the medicine before, other places would definitely have reserves of winter supplies.
The problem is, time is tight and the task is heavy.
As far as the S City base is concerned, they simply do not have the manpower or the energy to search for a large amount of supplies in areas that have not been cleared.
And so, this unprecedented wealth and fortune fell to her!
What a great opportunity to earn crystal cores! We can't let this chance slip by.
As Li Xin'er walked towards the RV, she thought to herself that one base in S City alone would definitely not be enough.
With communication cut off, how can we efficiently resell resources in large quantities to earn crystal cores?
The atmosphere was much heavier for the three people left behind. After watching her get into the RV, they hurriedly turned and left.
Lu Chen took the lead, walking with such speed that he seemed to take two steps in one, while giving instructions to the two people behind him as he walked:
"Jin'an, you lead the team and set off now to investigate the zombie upgrade situation. No matter what the result is, you must return to the base before dark."
"yes!"
Lu Jin'an received the order, turned around, and ran away.
Lu Chen continued, "Go and inform the base's management that there will be a meeting on the fifth floor in ten minutes. Call everyone from the logistics and transportation departments."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Li Xin'er, inside the RV, used her spiritual power to observe the actions of the three people.
She thought to herself that the drawbacks of establishing a base and gathering survivors too early were becoming apparent.
However, to be fair, although this will make things very chaotic and hectic for the official authorities, and increase their burden, it is a good thing for most ordinary survivors, at least they will still have a place to live and rely on.
Having stayed at the base for so long, Li Xin'er had almost forgotten what a chaotic world the outside world must be like.
She quickly changed her clothes, said goodbye to Sister Xia and the others, and then went out alone.
Since a blizzard is coming, living in the RV is not a solution. Although she doesn't feel anything, she still has two children, and Chef Sun is getting old. Such a good cook, we can't let him be ruined.
As soon as Li Xin'er left, Ali and He Tuo, who were left in the RV, started to complain about themselves.
The cassowary had a piece of dry grass, torn from who-knows-where, dangling from its beak. Its arms were crossed over its chest, and it leaned against the hood of the car.
“Ali, let’s stay. We haven’t done anything. We were supposed to drive for Sister Xin, but she never takes us with her when she goes out.”
