At this moment, Yun Shu stepped forward. He understood Lin Luo's intention and looked at the three "average" Level 2 elementalists. After three seconds of deliberation, Yun Shu said, "Use your abilities on that piece of land, and pause when an object is about to appear."
They understood this, although it was a bit difficult. They had never tried to use their supernatural powers halfway through.
Lin Luo nodded, "Let's try it first." His tone carried a hint of "There's really no other way, so we have to do this for now", which made the three men who have always been the best hold their breath.
——Can’t be underestimated!
With this thought in mind, the three of them activated their special abilities at the same time.
A second later, a ball of water rushed across the land, followed by a handful of soil on top. This was because it was too late to pause.
But not all failed. The wood-type mutant successfully suspended his supernatural powers.
Lin Luo's eyes narrowed. "This is the state! Control this energy. Don't disperse it too much, but don't let it become too large. Wrap the soil!"
The user with wood-type superpower frowned and did carefully according to what Lin Luo said. After reaching this step, he found that it was indeed different. Originally, they used superpowers simply to use them, but now they seemed to have a clearer understanding of the nature of superpowers.
It’s like opening the door to a new world!
When he successfully wrapped this small piece of soil with his own energy, he could even feel that the invisible energy seemed to take away something.
"I, succeeded?" He retracted his supernatural power and blinked rapidly in disbelief. He was a man who had experienced many life-and-death situations, but at this moment he was so uneasy.
but?……
Pah pah pah——
From the applause that followed, it was obvious that everyone was very happy.
And then the next second.
"What about you? You can't even do such a small thing?" Lin Luo glanced at the two failed psychics with a faint look, making them grit their teeth secretly.
"Come again, we will definitely succeed!"
The second time, both failed.
The third time, the water-based ability user succeeded.
The fourth time, the earth-type ability user succeeded.
Lin Luo was doing the final finishing work, which was also the most important link. If the pollution level of a piece of land was 100%, then the first three steps were equivalent to reducing it to 97%, which seemed to make no difference.
But Lin Luo wrapped the land with her mental power and then used her mental power to supplement these powers, which was the key to purifying the land.
It's like a washing machine. Adding detergent and disinfectant isn't enough; the key is to get the machine spinning. That's the key to getting clothes clean! But without the detergent, spinning alone won't get the clothes completely clean.
So? It all goes hand in hand!
——This should reduce it to around 50%.
Purifying the land is not that simple, nor is it something that can be done in one go. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so difficult for humans to win in the previous life. After all, three years later, the number of level four psychics gradually increased.
Then Lin Luo took out a seed and put it in the soil, asking Grandma Zhou to ripen it.
Soon, a green vegetable with a grayish color was unearthed, which was almost the same as Lin Luo expected.
"Again? Once more."
Following Lin Luo's order, the three of them once again mobilized their spiritual power to wrap around the land. After the "second cleansing", most of the vegetables that were produced were finally green.
According to this situation, this piece of land should be able to be used normally again.
Yao Haichao was so excited, this method really worked!
The land in the base would be saved, and he couldn't wait to go back and tell everyone the good news.
Water, earth, and wood are the three kinds of supernatural powers. Such a large base can always reveal some...
Unfortunately, as if seeing through Yao Haichao's thoughts, Lin Luo poured cold water on him in time.
"If we only rely on three types of psychics, we need to reach level four or above to purify the land." Her calm voice was like a sharp thorn, puncturing Yao Haichao's beautiful fantasy.
"Ms. Lin, this...how can you be sure..." Lin Luo is their savior, and he has also shown many extraordinary qualities, but this matter involves too many people and too many lives, it is impossible for him to give up like this.
Lin Luo was too lazy to explain, "Go ask the leader of your base."
Anyway, it’s up to them whether to say it or not. The final result will tell them their helplessness in this matter.
The most crucial thing... looking at the pale faces of the three psychics, "Can we have a third round?"
The three of them really wanted to say "Yes?!", after all, victory was just around the corner, but their empty bodies prevented them from saying this.
This is not something that can be used just by saying it.
"Rest for two hours to recover your abilities, and continue after lunch."
Just such a small piece of soil requires three second-level psychics to spend most of the day, which shows how difficult and time-consuming it is to purify the land.
Zhou Guangzong had a vague estimate in his mind and knew that even if Xiao Meng and the others advanced to second-level psychics, it would be impossible for them to quickly own a large area of arable land.
well--
He sighed in his heart. Actually, this is normal, isn't it?
Yao Haichao obviously noticed it as well. His eyes flickered and finally settled into calmness.
Land purification is one thing, but he can see that the most critical and important person here is Lin Luo.
If, could Lin Luo go to the South China base...
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Yao Haichao met Lin Luo's unsmiling eyes, which seemed to say, "Give up, I won't go."
Yao Haichao is not a bad person, but he will put collective interests before personal interests. Zhou Guangzong is very similar to him, after all, they come from the same place.
But the two of them were facing Lin Luo, and Yao Haichao's heart skipped a beat for some reason. To be honest, he really didn't know what Lin Luo's special ability was, let alone the level of her special ability.
Judging from her previous performance, level three? Or unbelievably... level four?
——Impossible? Right?
Yao Haichao denied himself in his heart. The apocalypse had only started for more than two months. Level three could barely be explained by natural talent, but level four... that meant he was not a human being!
Suppressing the unrealistic guesses in his mind, Yao Haichao bent down and filled a small bag of soil, intending to bring it back to the base to see if he could figure out anything.
After lunch, the three psychics' abilities were partially restored, and they were now very familiar with the route.
Finally, I managed to grow a vegetable that looked no different from ordinary vegetables at first glance.
"Ordinary people are better off not eating it, there will definitely be some poisonous residue." Lin Luo reminded that ordinary people's resistance to pollution is too low, and they may be infected if they are not careful.
"I understand." Zhou Guangzong nodded and took the vegetable with different meanings from Lin Luo's hand. "Next, we will focus on purifying the soil."
Then he looked at Yao Haichao and said, "Consider it as your food expenses!"
Yao Haichao nodded. "Please rest assured, we will definitely not be lazy."
The remaining three people also decided to do something else to help Zhou Jiawu. At least they had been saved by someone, and they couldn't take it for granted.
In order not to pollute the clean soil, the square originally intended for training became a new "soil drying ground". A little more soil was added every day. After a week of hard work, the amount accumulated gradually and we were able to grow some vegetables.
But at the same time, Yao Haichao and the others also had to go back.
Zhoujiawu is indeed a good place. There is no trouble with zombies, there is plenty of food, and even electricity is more abundant than the foundation.
You should know that the base will have power restrictions after 7pm, and non-important places will be in darkness. If anyone wants to do something at night, they have to spend points to exchange for candles.
But they still have to go! They have to go!
When Yao Haichao told Zhou Guangzong about this, he received a look of approval from the old man.
It is normal for those who came out of that team to have this awareness.
However, it was not so easy for them to leave. The few people who came over the mountain had gone through life and death, and lost five teammates.
This time we definitely won’t choose the mountain road, so we have to take the normal road, first to the town, then to the city, then to Wulian City, and finally to the South China base.
Under normal circumstances, it takes six or seven hours to drive this road, let alone now.
"It's okay, we have experience." Yao Haichao's eyes were calm. "The moment we came out, we had already made all kinds of preparations!"
Zhou Guangzong nodded. If he were in their place, he would make the same choice, but if possible, he still hoped that they could provide more guarantees.
So after asking Lin Luo, Zhou Guangzong went to the bottom of the ancestral hall, took out six guns and bullets that were confirmed to be usable, as well as some bombs, and found a place where there were no one else and quietly gave them to Yao Haichao and the others.
"Don't ask me where I'm from. Just be careful."
Yao Haichao's expression remained unchanged, and he nodded seriously. This was the advice from his predecessors. He was not really that rigid. People who did their secretive profession also needed to learn to be flexible.
Finally, Lin Luo took them to the town to find a suitable car. It was no problem for six men to squeeze in. Some gasoline and food were put in the trunk.
It can be said that what the Zhoujiawu people have done has made Yao Haichao and others feel grateful, and they even secretly vowed in their hearts that they will repay them if they have the chance.
Lin Luo had no interest in their rewards, but he still had to give them the necessary "instructions," "Don't reveal too much about Zhoujiawu. It's just an ordinary village!"
This is an "order"!
Unless Lin Luo dies, Yao Haichao and the others will never be able to disobey.
The coming and going of these six soldiers were like a gust of wind. Apart from taking up a small piece of land and consuming some supplies from Lin Luo, they left no trace.
The day after they left, November finally arrived.
At this time, the daily temperature in Zhoujiawu is hovering around zero degrees. When you open the curtains in the morning, you can see fog and frost on the windows.
Like the two wells, Wu Hao needs to use his "fire ability" to break them open to get water every day. Fortunately, the vegetables in the greenhouse have withstood this test and there is no problem for the time being.
In such an environment, the people of Zhoujiawu also began to "hibernate" like the ancients.
They spend an hour every day checking the land. Those with wood-type abilities nourish the vegetables, those with earth-type and water-type abilities create soil and water, and the others are responsible for... cooking, cleaning, watching surveillance, etc. Anyway, they will never be idle.
The flight monitor that Yun Shu developed in time was really useful, otherwise everyone would have to take turns patrolling and standing guard in such cold weather.
After finishing the work, everyone came to Zhou's house with their tools. It would be too energy-consuming to use air conditioning for heating alone, so everyone chose to only use the central air conditioning in Zhou's living room for a few hours a day. All the people who originally lived in the three buildings were scattered in various corners of Zhou's living room.
The nearly 300-square-meter space is more than enough for more than 20 people to lie down. Some are playing cards, some are reading on the sofa, some are doing puzzles, and there are a few girls sitting around chatting.
Even without entertainment gossip, girls always have endless topics to talk about.
At night, men and women slept on the floor on each side. The air conditioner was turned off to save electricity, but with a thick mattress, it was no different from lying on the bed. Anyway, there were many bathrooms and toilets in the Zhou family, so there was no need to crowd when going to the toilet or taking a shower.
It was warmer when everyone slept together. Grandma Yao and the others even took out their traditional winter heating magic weapon – hot water bottles!
Just boil some water and it will keep you warm for two or three hours. The cooled water can also be used to flush the toilet, clean the house, etc. There is no waste at all.
The only drawback? ...probably that those stinky men actually snore!
The first night was inexperienced, and after being woken up by Zhou Xiang, the girls endured it until dawn. During the day, Zhou Xiang laughed at them so hard that they had two panda eyes.
The next night they came up with an idea. In addition to finding earplugs, they also prepared a few small pillows at hand. If the noise over there got too loud, they would throw one over!
Whoever it hits is fine. If they can’t sleep well, then those stinky men can’t sleep well either!
The man who was woken up by the snoring dared not say anything. If the person next to him was snoring, he would kick him hard to vent his anger.
As a married woman who has endured for decades, Lan Yueyin found this scene inexplicably funny, but it also seemed quite interesting to see Zhou Yaozu and the others being humiliated.
On the other side, Lin Luo also reached a critical moment. She had a vague feeling that she was about to advance to level six.
More than half a year has passed since he was promoted to level five in April this year. For an ordinary person, it would be difficult to upgrade from level two to level three in such a short time, but Lin Luo had the experience of his previous life, which did provide him with a lot of convenience.
Feeling the power filling his body, Lin Luo estimated that he should be able to "cross" that hurdle in a week at the fastest, or half a month at the slowest.
"Lolo, Grandma Yao and the others sent us a lot of sweet potatoes. How would you like to eat them?"
Lin Luo, who had just come downstairs after finishing his training, saw Yun Shu holding two huge sweet potatoes and asked.
"It's so big...it seems unrealistic to roast it."
Lin Luo couldn't help but recall that in the past, after school in winter, there would always be vendors pushing carts selling roasted sweet potatoes at the school gate. Those sweet potatoes were roasted until they were crispy red and sweet.
The fragrance it emits can attract a large number of students.
Sometimes when Lin Luo doesn’t want to eat dinner, he will pester his father and mother to buy a big sweet potato. It is sweet and soft in the mouth, and it spreads in the mouth when you take a sip. It is a kind of "sweet food" that Lin Luo, who is not a sweet food person, rarely likes.
But what Yunshu has in her hand now is not a sweet potato suitable for roasting.
"Sweet potato porridge?"
Lin Luo could only think of this from his meager food collection. This was also a rare good meal made by his mother, who was not good at cooking.
It’s very simple. Just cut the sweet potatoes into pieces and cook them together with the porridge. The porridge has its own sweetness and does not require any special side dishes or sugar.
Yun Shu nodded and said, "Then I'll make the arrangements myself." His food reserves were much larger than Lin Luo's.
Sure enough, at 12:00 PM, Lin Luo received a portion of freshly baked cheese baked sweet potatoes.
Placed in a tin foil box, the top layer is cheese, and the bottom is soft sweet potato mash that is the same as baked sweet potatoes.
Use a spoon to scoop up a corner, the aroma of cheese and the sweetness of sweet potato are a perfect combination!
Lin Luo easily finished a plate of baked sweet potatoes with cheese, and even felt a little unsatisfied. She also realized that it wasn't that she didn't like sweets, but that she hadn't met someone who could make sweets that were really delicious!
At least every time Yun Shu made a dessert, Lin Luo was extremely satisfied. He couldn't show that he didn't like it even if he didn't order it.
In the evening, Yun Shu even made a dish of candied sweet potato, which was also loved by Lin Luo. She chewed up all the crunchy sweets without leaving any.
——With her current physical condition, she shouldn’t get diabetes!
Lin Luo comforted him.
There's nothing I can do about it, it's Yunshu's fault for making it so delicious.
Lin Luo, who felt like he was shirking responsibility, finished a large portion of fried pork chop for supper with a clear conscience. It was so delicious with Yunshu’s special sauce!
Soon, Zhoujiawu welcomed the second heavy snowfall, which was more severe than the first one.
It snowed for two days and one night. The thick snow was almost higher than an adult's thighs. If a child like Zhou Mengjie fell in, he might only be able to show his head.
After waiting for a long time for the snow to stop, all the people in Zhoujiawu came out to sweep the snow, so that at least the road in front of the door would not be blocked.
"Girl Luo, the weather is so weird, should we make some more preparations?"
Zhou Guangzong was very worried that the wild animals in the mountains would risk coming down the mountain because they couldn't find food. This situation was not uncommon.
If an ordinary person accidentally encounters it, he may very likely die!
"Don't worry, they can't come down."
Lin Luo had given orders to the animals and plants as early as the first snow. If one wanted to break through their encirclement and reach Zhoujiawu, one would have to have at least level four strength.
This amount of time is not enough, and by the time they reach level four strength, I would have reached level six!
After seeing Zhou Guangzong off, Lin Luo suddenly stood up and said, "Yun Shu, you don't need lunch or dinner? Prepare mine, I have something to do."
The moment she appeased Zhou Guangzong, she felt the opportunity to advance.
Lin Luo hurried upstairs to his room, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, calmed himself, and began the final preparations before the upgrade.
Yun Shu downstairs was stunned for a while. Luo Luo was like this...was he going to advance again?
"Ouch?"
Xiao Hei, who was too lazy to go out in the living room in the middle of winter, looked at Yun Shu who was lost in thought and made a puzzled sound.
——Why does the big guy look so stupid?
Of course, Yun Shu didn't know what Xiao Hei was complaining about him, and just continued thinking in his mind.
To advance, those with physical abilities need to constantly strengthen their bodies, commonly known as breaking through their limits.
He is using this method now, and the amount of exercise he does every day is enough to make him tired.
But, it’s still not enough…
Too slow! Too slow!
Is there any way to be faster? To improve my strength?
Yunshu's thoughts began to wander.
Just when Yun Shu was thinking about how to become stronger quickly, Lin Luo's condition was not very good.
She should have been calm and relaxed about her advancement at this point, and let it come naturally. After all, for Lin Luo, level six was just a process of accumulation.
But she seemed to smell a faint smell that was not very pleasant, and this smell made Lin Luo feel a surge of violent emotions in her heart.
And many unpleasant things from my previous life came to my mind.
The rich second-generation who hit and killed his parents was released after being imprisoned for less than a year because he was rich and powerful.
At level one, I was almost pushed out as cannon fodder because of my weak strength.
She was betrayed by her teammates, an organization wanted to capture her for research, and she saved someone but he turned out to be an ungrateful person.
…
Countless things that would make people feel discouraged and even want to take revenge on society were replayed in Lin Luo's mind.
The ugly faces of those people, their shouting, regrets, and cries before being killed by Lin Luo.
These scenes are enough to make a person with a strong mind collapse.
