In the center of the square, Lu Nange and his men were discussing in a corner. They couldn't afford the first-level crystal cores, and they didn't lack the second-level ones, so they planned to save the first and second levels for the base...
Zhizhi stood behind the few people like a proud peacock, with vines covered with sparkling crystal cores that jingled as they moved along.
After they had discussed it, they turned around and were about to explain to Liu Hanhai before they opened their mouths and called out, "Brother-in-law."
The supernatural beings in the base have spontaneously lined up in a long queue and presented all the crystal cores they have collected with both hands.
Some people even turned their pockets inside out for fear of missing one.
"Everyone." The superpower in the middle said sincerely: "This is a small token of our appreciation. Without you guys taking care of the high-level zombies, we wouldn't be able to survive."
"Yes, great gods, we saw you collecting crystal cores, so there should be some, you are holding these..."
Everyone kept a proper distance. In their eyes, Lu Nange and his group were gifted geniuses, so they did not force crystal cores into their hands, but just placed them in front of Zhizhi, not too close or too far away.
"Thank you, but these are the spoils of war that you won yourself." Lu Nange shook his head and refused: "We really can't accept them."
"But if it weren't for you..."
"You saved the entire base..."
"We really can't repay you..."
"Idol, just keep it..."
"Take it..."
Seeing that everyone was determined to send him off, Lu Nange had no choice but to call out softly, "Zhizhi."
The little fellow immediately understood, and the vines shook lightly, causing all the first and second level crystal cores on them to pour onto the ground like raindrops.
"These are for you too." Lu Nange said firmly, "The zombies are constantly evolving, and you need these crystal cores to improve your strength."
Liu Hanhai waved his hands hastily: "How can this be possible! If you don't want to take ours, fine. But how can we take your crystal cores?"
Lu Nange was going crazy... [Save me, save me... I'm really not good at this double-pushing and double-pushing red envelope situation during the Chinese New Year...]
Chi Yanzhou: "Brother-in-law, we are already level three or four supernatural beings. These low-level crystal cores are really of little use. It is everyone in the base who needs to improve their strength..."
Liu Hanhai finally took it solemnly: "Then I would like to thank you on behalf of everyone!"
"Thank you, God!"
"Thank you very much!"
Amid the cheers, Liu Hanhai announced loudly: "Everyone, collect your war supplies first. As for Xiaolu and the others' crystal cores, they will be distributed according to demand based on everyone's ability upgrades."
"Thank you, Base Captain! Thank you, God!"
The sound lingered in the square for a long time.
At this moment, Yuli, holding Juanjuan, and a large number of ordinary survivors appeared at the iron gate.
Her voice was excited. "We...won?"
Liu Hanhai nodded heavily and said in a resounding voice: "We won!"
The crowd suddenly erupted in thunderous cheers, some hugged each other and cried, some knelt down and prayed...
Yuli looked at Lu Nange and his group carefully with red eyes: "How are you? Are you all not hurt?"
"It's all good." Lu Nange smiled, "It's just too dirty to look at."
"Hurry up and wash up!" Yuli waved her hand in disdain, but couldn't hide the smile on her face: "I'll go make you some midnight snacks in a bit."
Liu Hanhai added: "Then you guys go and rest first. I have to count the casualties first, so I won't send you off."
Lu Nange and the others nodded slightly.
Hearing that Lu Nange and his group were about to leave, the crowd spontaneously separated into two sides, making way for a passage.
With every step forward, people on both sides bowed in unison, and shouts of "thank you" echoed throughout the base.
Lu Nange and his group seemed a little embarrassed in the face of everyone's thanks. After hurriedly waving their hands, they quickened their pace and ran towards the villa area.
Crossing the square, only the patrol members remained along the way.
Every time we passed a sentry post, the other party would salute respectfully.
This forced them to slow down and nod in response, but they quickly trotted back to the villa.
After entering the house, Lu Nange quickly placed ice buckets in various places in the room. With a flick of his fingertips, several wind blades accurately cut through the air, driving the rapid circulation of cold air.
