People do not share the same sorrows and joys, I just think they are noisy - Lu Xun (yes, it was Brother Xun who said that again).
Chen Yan, who was in the wasteland at the end of the world, could not feel Sun Fulin's pain, just as Sun Fulin could not feel Chen Yan's joy of making a fortune.
At this time, Chen Yan and Qin Yourong had joined the team to explore the power station.
Although everyone is now a level three awakener, Xu Qinghe has been a level three awakener the longest and has the most experience in exploring these relatively dangerous areas, so the team is still commanded by Xu Qinghe.
Yao Shan's temper is rather taciturn, which is in stark contrast to Yao Yun's lively and cheerful personality.
Under Xu Qinghe's arrangement, the brother and sister Yao Shan and Yao Yun were responsible for guarding the two sides, and formed a V-shaped formation with Xu Qinghe, protecting Chen Yan and Qin Yourong in the middle.
The reason why Qin Yourong was also protected in the middle was obviously to provide close protection for Chen Yan...
That’s right, at Xu Qinghe’s request, Chen Yan found himself as if he had turned into a giant panda.
Ever since he brought Qin Yourong to join the team exploring the power station, not only had he failed to become a vital force in the team, but he had actually hindered the team's progress...
This is what happened!
"Well, Brother Xu, I'm joining us on this exploration because I hope to be helpful, not to be a burden. You really don't need to be so cautious about my safety. In fact, we're all at the third level of awakening now. If we encounter a danger you can handle, then I can definitely handle it. And if it's a danger that has the ability to harm me, then naturally you won't be able to withstand it either. So, it seems pointless to me for you to protect me in the middle."
Chen Yan spoke the truth.
Xu Qinghe stopped walking, looked back at Chen Yan, and said in a deep voice, "If you really encounter a danger we can't handle, such as being targeted by a level 3 zombie or a mutant creature, we will stand in front of you and buy you time to escape! I hope you can make a quick decision and use the time we buy to escape. Don't hesitate!"
Chen Yan nodded and said, "Okay, okay, I agree to all of this. Don't worry, Brother Xu, I'm not an idiot. If I really encounter danger that I can't handle, I will definitely run faster than anyone else! Even if you don't believe me, you should believe Rongrong, right? Rongrong can prove that I really do have very special self-protection abilities. It's quite difficult to kill me."
Qin Yourong echoed, "Chen Yan is right, Brother Xu. Treating Chen Yan this way will only severely hinder our exploration efficiency. It's really unnecessary. We'll have to evacuate in about thirty-five days at most. Considering we need to reserve a few days for repairs and repairs, we'll have at most a month to obtain the battery pack."
Although the power station isn't far from us and it won't take long to get there, the situation inside is undoubtedly very complex. From a safety perspective, our exploration of the power station must proceed with caution, which will take a considerable amount of time. Therefore, if we overly consider Chen Yan, we risk delaying the overall plan."
After Qin Yourong's analysis, Xu Qinghe finally began to waver.
His eyes swept across Chen Yan and Qin Yourong's faces, and he said with a rather conflicted expression, "Mr. Fei asked me to ensure Xiao Chen's absolute safety, but you also have a point. Well... let's change to a five-star formation. You and Xiao Chen will be responsible for the rear security. That way, if an unexpected situation arises, it will be convenient for you to evacuate Xiao Chen immediately. This is the maximum concession I can accept."
Qin Yourong said with a smile: "No problem, actually, Brother Xu, you really don't have to worry too much. Chen Yan's ability to save his life is far beyond your imagination. Even if we all die, Chen Yan will be fine."
Upon hearing this, Yao Yun immediately spat on the ground and said, "Pfft! Pfft! Sister Rongrong, don't say that. We will all be fine, and no one will die!"
"Okay, okay, no one of us will be in trouble." Qin Yourong hugged Yao Yun's cheek and kissed him like coaxing a child.
Xu Qinghe coughed dryly and said, "Since we've all been organized into combat sequence and Xiao Chen is no longer under special protection, I'll have to speed up my advance." Although Mr. Fei had previously planned a suitable route and explored it, confirming that there were no particularly dangerous zombies or mutant creatures.
But those zombies and mutants won't stay still forever. Their movements are chaotic and unpredictable, so we must be prepared for any unexpected situations. Mr. Fei has provided us with two drones. I will launch one directly and have it fly at an altitude of about 20 meters.
This altitude is relatively safe, and we shouldn't be spotted by the mutants flying high in the sky. The drone will transmit real-time information about the route we'll be taking, about 300 meters away, effectively increasing our speed. I hope we can reach the power station within two hours!"
As he spoke, Xu Qinghe took out a small box from his pocket.
The size and shape are very similar to the box that Apple uses to package its wireless earbuds.
With a click, the lid popped open, and then a small creature that looked like a bee flew out of the box...
At the same time, Chen Yan discovered that a real-time video was displayed in the upper left corner of the external contact lens he was wearing.
Judging from the angle of the picture, it seems that the little thing was taking the photo from a high vantage point.
"I've connected the drone's camera footage to your smart bracelets. If you feel it's affecting your vision, you can disable it. This drone is Mr. Fei's latest modification, and it has radiation sensing capabilities. Even if zombies and mutants are hiding, it can still be detected. So, we need to speed up our progress."
Furthermore, considering we're going deeper into the core area, even just a little deeper increases the danger. Therefore, Eclipse energy weapons should be avoided unless absolutely necessary. Everyone should, in principle, only use high-frequency swords for hand-to-hand combat. Otherwise, it's hard to guarantee that no energy-sensitive mutants will be attracted.
Having said this, Xu Qinghe paused for three seconds before continuing, "Any further questions?"
"have!"
Chen Yan raised his hand with a chuckle, facing Xu Qinghe's puzzled gaze, and said embarrassedly, "Can you send me the parameters of the drone? I'm very interested in this thing."
