"Ahem, ahem..." Xu Jiaguo said angrily, "This is our country's land, our country's people, and this is the base we humans created. Does Xu Tian want to be the emperor? Ahem, ahem..."
Xu Zhouyun quickly handed him the water cup next to him, used his hand to calm him down, and comforted him: "Dad, calm down."
Ye Jin thought, doesn't Xu Tian just want to be a local emperor? In his previous life, Xu Tian was the base commander. In the end times, the central government has no control over the country and the emperor is far away. What's more, after the end of the world, various new small bases have emerged everywhere.
After drinking the water and moistening his throat, Xu Jiaguo felt much better. He calmed down and said to Ye Jin, "Miss Ye, the Ye family has its roots in the capital, so they should know more about Beijing than we do. I didn't know anything else except the notification when the apocalypse broke out. What do you know? I hope you can tell us the details."
"I couldn't contact my uncle before the apocalypse, so I don't know much. I only know that zombies can upgrade, and so can people with special abilities." Ye Jin said to Xu Zhouyun, "The thing you just asked about is called a nuclear crystal, and it can enhance special abilities."
"The zombies will upgrade?" Xu Jiaguo asked excitedly, "Why didn't I receive any information before?"
"Maybe the higher-ups don't know either." Xu Zhouyun asked, "What exactly is going on with this nuclear crystal?"
"I've met people from the Gu family before, and I only knew about it after seeing them use it." Ye Jin replied: "Not only zombies will upgrade, but even plants and animals will mutate."
Xu Jiaguo's face was solemn. They also knew about this matter. A few days ago, there was a big tree in the villa area of the base. Suddenly, branches appeared and stabbed people and sucked blood. They used heavy firepower to penetrate the tree and injured many people.
Xu Zhouyun pulled a green crystal core from his pocket and said, "This is a mutant tree that appeared at the base a few days ago. I dug it out from under its roots. Do mutant trees also have core crystals?"
Ye Jin looked at the second-order wood-type nuclear crystal in his hand and said, "Not only plants have it, animals also have it. This is a second-order wood-type nuclear crystal. It is best for every psychic to absorb nuclear crystals of the same attribute."
"How do you absorb the nuclear crystal?" Xu Zhouyun asked.
Ye Jin didn't answer them immediately, but just said: "I've told you so much, I think there is no free lunch in the world..."
Xu Jiaguo frowned and said, "Girl, this concerns the future of mankind, you..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by his own son.
Xu Zhouyun said to Ye Jin, "Miss Ye, thank you very much for telling us so much. You can ask for anything you want."
Xu Zhouyun and Xu Jiaguo are still different. He knows what his father wants to say. They can give everything for the base, but that doesn’t mean others have to do the same as him. Moreover, Ye Jin herself has no obligation to tell them so much.
Ye Jin glanced at Xu Zhouyun, who was indeed a smart man. She said, "I can teach you how to absorb nuclear crystals, but I want 10,000 nuclear crystals as a fee for the information."
She knew what Xu Jiaguo wanted to say, but no one likes to be preached to. She was not the reincarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva, who had to save all living beings. If she gave this news to Xu Tian, the price would definitely be more than 10,000 nuclear crystals.
Xu Zhouyun nodded and said, "Of course I will. Pass the order down immediately. Once I have collected this much, I will send someone to deliver it to you. I'll give you the one I have in my hand first."
Ye Jin took the nuclear crystal and said to Xu Jiaguo, "Captain Xu, on my way back, I found that some zombies were gathering with behavioral awareness. I hope you can reinforce the city wall."
"Consciously gathering?" Xu Jiaguo was no longer indifferent. He asked, "Do you mean that group of zombies will organize themselves to consciously attack the city?"
Ye Jin didn't say anything. Although the zombies didn't have the ability to attack the city now, that day would come. It would be better to build the city wall in advance. At least there wouldn't be as many casualties as in the previous life.
"No matter what, even trees can eat people, so reinforcing the city walls is a form of advance defense." Xu Zhouyun suggested to Xu Jiaguo, "I think it's right to listen to Miss Ye." No matter what, Ye Jin is a member of the Ye family, and obviously knows more about the end of the world than they do.
He then said to Ye Jin, "Yu Leyang and his group haven't returned yet. We have already detained his parents. His sister, who doesn't have any special abilities, was forced to stay behind by Xu Tian. Now the relationship between our military and Xu Tian is almost at odds."
Xu Jiaguo, who was lying on the bed, said to Ye Jin, "I've roughly understood your relationship with the Yu family. We are now on the opposite side of the Xu family..."
He looked at Ye Jin, not knowing what she was thinking. Everyone in the base said that she had a bad relationship with the Yu family, but they were related by blood after all. He was very optimistic about Xiao Jin, a young girl who was as capable as any man.
Ye Jin said: "Commander Xu, from the moment I chose you, it was destined that the Xu family and I would be on opposite sides."
If she goes to Xu Tian to surrender now, will he let her go?
"Miss Ye, if that's the case, I wonder if you could use your reputation to recruit some psychics for our army?" Xu Zhouyun said, "Since you've been on several missions, you've become quite famous in the base."
"I won't lead a team, and I don't want to have contact with strangers." It's okay to recruit people using her name, and the Xu family's army is strong, which is also beneficial to her, but she doesn't want to cause trouble for herself, as she is too busy with her own things.
Xu Zhouyun chuckled and said in a clear voice, "Don't worry, you're just putting your name on the list to let others know that you're in our army."
"Hahahaha, I'll make an exception and give you an officer title." Xu Jiaguo said with a hearty smile, "I'll write a report to the leaders after I get some news."
After hearing what Xu Jiaguo said, Ye Jin thought to himself that it was no wonder that Su Heng and Li Hu were sometimes so stupid, they were really like their leaders. Xu Jiaguo actually believed that there would be news from above. If Xu Tian dared to take action against him, I'm afraid the central government would have been in chaos long ago.
When Xu Zhouyun heard his father's words, he pursed his lips and looked a little thoughtful.
Coming back to his senses, he looked up at Ye Jin and said, "Miss Ye, if you need anything else at the base, please feel free to let us know."
"Then maybe I just lack the core crystal."
She is a rich woman now, and she has everything except nuclear crystals.
"Okay! I'll let Su Heng lead the team out to fight the zombies now."
Ye Jin said, "I think you should not only fight zombies and dig nuclear crystals, but also quickly improve the abilities of the people you have. I don't want to be held back."
"I never thought that I, Old Xu, would be blamed for being a drag on others in my life." Xu Jiaguo sighed. He said, "Girl, don't worry. Although I don't have any special abilities, my soldiers are no pushovers. Tomorrow I will ask Su Heng to train them every day."
The soldiers under his command are all real martial artists, but the times are different now.
