"Specializing superpowers is a good thing, cough cough." Zhang Xiaojuan cleared her throat awkwardly beside her. "Professional matters should be handled by professionals."
In the apocalypse, there are many outrageous superpowers; turning into a cat or a dog is no longer enough. Lu Sheng and his group have also witnessed bizarre superpowers in various bases.
But this is the first time I've seen something as outrageous as Xinqiao.
Xin Qiao, staring at the group of people with wide eyes, scratched the ground with his toes and stiffly flicked his hair. "A considerable number of people's awakening of superpowers is related to their living environment before the apocalypse."
"For example, forestry workers are more likely to awaken plant-based abilities, while fishermen are more likely to awaken water-based abilities. Before the apocalypse, I was working in a gynecology clinic, so it wasn't strange that I awakened a related ability."
Because her superpower was too shameful, Xinqiao had always been reluctant to mention it. Furthermore, with very few pregnancies occurring after the apocalypse, her painless abortion technique was even less useful.
She had to do some internal struggle before revealing it to so many people...
"Let's give it a try. It would be best if we could remove the fetus without harming the mother." Lu Sheng glanced at the frail figure behind the curtain. "Just let me know if you need any help."
Liang Xiaoyun is too weak. If the little zombie in her belly continues to absorb the mother's energy, she may not be able to hold on for long.
Xin Qiao nodded slightly, then turned to the bespectacled young man and said, "Xiao Meng, go find some superpower supplements."
"Will it work? That stuff was just developed, and it has a lot of side effects." The bespectacled guy hesitated for a moment.
The research labs at K3 base started relatively late, and their research has been largely lagging behind others. The ability supplements are also a relatively new technology, only recently developed in the lab, and have significant side effects.
Drinking it can only temporarily replenish the lost supernatural energy in the body; after a few minutes, one will suffer a strong backlash.
"At a time like this, who cares about side effects? Just give it to me now."
Xinqiao is a straightforward person. She immediately put on a stern face and glanced at the bespectacled young man with some annoyance.
Use this.
Just as the two were at an impasse, Lu Sheng took out a 500ml bottle of crystal core extract from her spatial storage. She had been too lazy to find a container when she made the juice a few days ago, so she used the iced tea bottle that Zhuangzhuang had just finished drinking from.
Xinqiao and the bespectacled guy stared blankly at the secondhand iced tea that was handed to them.
"Hey sis, where did you pick this up from?" the bespectacled guy asked tentatively.
He can tolerate drinking secondhand iced tea, but Sister Xinqiao can't.
Lu Sheng calmly placed the crystal core extract on the table, "It's definitely better than your supplement."
"Okay, I'll trust you this once."
With time running out and the task at hand, Xinqiao didn't have time to think much, so he twisted open the lid and took a big gulp.
A refreshing sensation immediately coursed through Xin Qiao's body, sweeping away her fatigue. Unlike the semi-finished supplements from K3 base, this one not only had no side effects but also tasted great!
With all the supplies prepared, Xin Qiao connected Liang Xiaoyun to a ventilator and finally began to use his supernatural abilities.
Contrary to everyone's expectations of a swift and decisive release, Xinqiao's release of his superpower required a long activation time and consumed a great deal of physical strength.
It took her a full half hour to finally remove the zombie embryo from Liang Xiaoyun's abdomen.
When did Liang Xiaoyun's belly start to swell?
Xinqiao carefully placed the zombie embryo into a special container and tightened the lid.
"About a week?" Sun Zhe replied after calculating for a while.
Everyone stared at the fist-sized zombie embryo inside the container, and their hearts tightened.
The zombie embryo has clearly taken on a specific shape, and judging from its appearance, it should be at least three or four months old.
Sun Tiantian felt a chill run down her spine. "It's only been a week and it's already grown so big..."
Perhaps because the embryo is not yet fully developed, the little monster inside the container is very quiet, with only faint energy fluctuations.
Lu Sheng gestured to Zhuangzhuang with his eyes.
"Third tier, fire element."
Zhuangzhuang wagged its long tail and meowed sweetly around Lu Sheng.
Since his ability was upgraded, Zhuangzhuang can not only see the numbers representing combat power, but also instantly determine the level and ability of zombie units.
The little radar is getting a upgrade.
"The full-term one that just popped out on its own was a fifth-order unicorn, and this embryo that is still developing is a third-order unicorn. Does this thing increase its level as it develops?" Han Rui counted on her fingers for a moment, then looked up in surprise.
"That's not fair! We work so hard to fight monsters and level up, only to improve a tiny bit, while these evil creatures can just absorb nutrients and level up all by themselves!"
The atmosphere inside the examination room was extremely tense. Xin Qiao started an IV drip for Liang Xiaoyun, then turned around and hesitated as he looked at everyone.
"The base commander left a few days ago to attend the Central Region Joint Conference and won't be back for at least two more days. What should we do now?"
The bespectacled young man subconsciously pursed his lips. "The person with supreme command authority within the base is Deputy Commander Li."
With Su Zheng and his father absent, K3 was leaderless. Due to the increasingly harsh post-apocalyptic environment, the K3 base also faced a severe shortage of personnel.
Now, the person with the most power in the entire base is Li Sheng, a subordinate of Su Zheng's father.
"Should we report this truthfully to Vice Minister Li?"
The bespectacled young man also looked hesitant.
Zhang Xiaojuan couldn't stand these two dawdling and panting, so she rolled up her sleeves and said, "Such a big thing happened and you're not reporting it? Are you waiting for the zombie gourd brothers to all jump out and stab you one by one?"
The bespectacled guy turned red in the face after being rebuked, and it was Xin Qiao who finally came to his rescue.
“Deputy Commander Li is extremely ruthless. If he knew that the pregnant women in the base were all zombie mothers, he would immediately order all the pregnant women to be killed.”
