In a high-rise residential building not far from Yuan Chuyi and his group, a young man with an earring spoke to a pale-faced man:
"Brother, what's going on? I've been looking at it for a while, and it looks like they're building with blocks."
The pale-faced man sighed and said, "It seems there's a master in the city center! I thought our few dozen brothers were already the strongest at this stage."
He then looked at the man who had spoken and said, "Wang Mazi, go and call Chen Dapao here."
Wang Mazi quickly nodded and said, "Okay, brother, I'll go get him right away."
A moment later, a man missing a finger approached the pale-faced man and asked, "Brother, did you call me?"
The pale-faced man pointed downwards and asked, "Cannon, do you think those people were using spatial abilities?"
After observing the situation below for a while, Chen Dapao said, "Brother, I don't think so. There are four people. Could they all be space ability users?"
Also, how could there possibly be so much space to house so many buildings?
The pale-faced man said approvingly, "I think so too. I'll wait and see how deep those people are."
Chen Dapao's eyes lit up as he said, "Brother, you mean..." He then made a throat-slitting gesture.
The pale-faced man glanced at Chen Dapao and said, "You've been with me for years, how come you haven't improved at all? This is the apocalypse, what's the most important thing in the apocalypse? Talented people."
We'll see if we can win these people over first. If they really can't be used by me, we can deal with them later.
"By the way, brother, how did things go last night? Did you avenge the brothers?"
The pale-faced man sneered, "Those who captured us before the apocalypse are all dead. But surprisingly, one of them was a woman who could fly and managed to escape with two other people."
"Let them run. They're not exactly big shots anyway. We should focus our energy on the people below."
Chen Dapao said regretfully, "What a pity about that little wench. I should have led the men there myself last time."
The pale-faced man said in a low voice, "How many times have I told you? Stop thinking about women all day long. Why don't you learn your lesson? This is the beginning of a new era. We must seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to discover our own power."
Chen Dapao nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice, saying, "I understand, brother, I understand."
The pale-faced man glanced at Chen Dapao and said, "Alright, you can go now."
As Chen Dapao left, the man looked down at Yuan Chuyi and the others with a gloomy face and muttered, "Looks like you guys are planning to use the buildings to build a city wall."
"I wonder if your walls will be effective against my zombies." She turned gently to a zombie behind her holding a ball of fire and said:
"Don't rush, baby. Once I can control another superpowered zombie, I'll take you to meet them." As he spoke, a crystal core appeared in his hand, followed by a joyful expression.
Meanwhile, Yuan Chuyi and his group below were still frantically building the city wall.
"I told you it wouldn't work, but you insisted it could be blocked. What, are you planning to give the zombies a back door through this gap in the middle?" Wan'er muttered to Yuan Chuyi, dissatisfied.
Yuan Chuyi said nonchalantly, "You're right, I really was planning to leave a door here."
Wan'er pouted and said, "You're just trying to make excuses."
Just as the two were bickering, the roar of an engine came from afar, and the group stared at the SUV approaching from a distance.
Just a dozen meters away from the group, the vehicle executed a graceful drift, and a man and a woman stepped out.
Just as Tang Yan was about to go up and ask, the woman spoke first: "Brother Yuan, we have come to seek refuge with you."
Yuan Chuyi greeted them with a smile, saying, "I thought you two wouldn't come because you thought my temple was too small."
The man chuckled and said, "Look at what you're saying, brother. Since we agreed in the first place, how could we go back on our word?"
Yuan Chuyi called over the three women and introduced them: "These are the couple I told you about, Chen Tian and Chen Rong."
Chen Rong stepped forward first and said, "These three must be your sister-in-law. They are all stunning beauties, each with her own unique charm."
Before Yuan Chuyi could explain, Tang Yan said bluntly, "Who knows if you're really saying what you mean? There are plenty of people who say one thing and mean another."
Yuan Chuyi looked at Tang Yan with suspicion, wondering if Tang Yan had seen through Chen Rong's thoughts? Could it be that the rumors in the previous life about couples with superpowers being extremely affectionate were false?
Just then, Chen Rong took off his sunglasses, looked Tang Yan up and down, and said, "Tang Yan, it's you, my little girl." He then ran up to her, and the two gave each other a big hug.
Yuan Chuyi was even more confused now, so she stepped forward and asked, "Do you know each other?"
Tang Yan pointed at Chen Rong and said, "Even if you don't know him, you've at least heard of him."
Yuan Chuyi looked at Tang Yan with a puzzled expression.
Tang Yan then said, "You know Rongtian Group, right? This is Rongtian's major shareholder and president."
Yuan Chuyi quickly said, "It's a pleasure to meet you. I never expected that you were the president of Rongtian Group before the apocalypse."
Tang Yan interrupted, "Alright, enough with the formalities. I'll take Sister Rong and the other two inside. You can continue." As she spoke, she made an apologetic gesture to Zheng Shuang and Wan'er.
But just as Chen Tian passed by Yuan Chuyi, he patted Yuan Chuyi's shoulder hard with his big hand and gave him a look of sympathy before following Chen Rong and leaving.
Yuan Chuyi recalled Chen Tian's gaze. What did that mean? He even patted me. Suddenly realizing what he meant, Yuan Chuyi cursed inwardly, "You bastard, so he was looking down on me."
He thought to himself: "You little brat, Tang Yan, just wait and see how I deal with you tonight. So what if you're a CEO? This is the apocalypse, and I'm the one who calls the shots in this camp. Just wait and see what I do tonight."
Inside the base vehicle, Tang Yan stood behind Yuan Chuyi like a good girl, massaging his back. She asked softly, "How's the pressure? Does it ease your mood?"
Ever since Yuan Chuyi returned to the base vehicle, Tang Yan seemed to realize she had made a mistake, and kept saying things to make Yuan Chuyi happy, making Yuan Chuyi a little embarrassed.
"Alright, stop pressing. If you keep pressing, I'll feel even more embarrassed to touch you."
Tang Yan said softly, "My dear husband, I was wrong. Can you not punish me tonight? Look, I haven't fully recovered yet. How about letting Shuang'er take my place?" As she spoke, she was about to call Zheng Shuang in.
When Yuan Chuyi saw that Tang Yan was really going to call for help, she quickly pulled her back as she was about to leave and said, "Alright, alright, let it go this time."
There's something I'd like you to help me with.
Tang Yan then sat down and said, "Go ahead and speak."
Yuan Chuyi said, "What do you think about me announcing the crystal core information now?"
After thinking for a moment, Tang Yan said, "I think this is feasible. Didn't you also say that after the snow disaster, the zombies will be at least level one? When level one zombies are everywhere, people will naturally discover this secret."
Rather than letting the survivors discover it slowly, we might as well just announce it.
At the very least, ordinary survivors will have a significantly increased ability to survive after absorbing the crystal core, which is equivalent to an increase in the camp's strength.
