Chapter 117 Raising Little Zombies in the End of the World 1 The Chain of Superpower Contempt
Shen Qian has been staying in this base for a month. Apart from collecting the most basic survival supplies every day, she spends the rest of her time inquiring about the action team heading to S City.
This world has entered the apocalypse for three years. The original owner's parents passed away just as the apocalypse began. She also has a child. Shen Qian inquired about the news and wanted to go to S City to find the child.
Nowadays, zombies are rampant, and plants and animals have begun to mutate. Most areas are in extremely dangerous areas without military jurisdiction. Unless you can wait for an officially organized action team, it will be difficult to find a team to go there.
However, Shen Qian was lucky. She soon found out that there was a team recruiting people. Anyone with special abilities could sign up. The team's destination was S City, so Shen Qian signed up without hesitation.
The superpowers she registered were certified by the base.
Ability type: Purification.
Level: Level 0.
The registration team member looked hesitant. "Ms. Shen, please wait a moment. I need to ask Captain Zhuo for instructions."
Shen Qian was slightly startled: "Captain Zhuo? Your captain is Zhuo Lin?"
"Exactly."
The team members went to make a phone call to inquire, and Shen Qian fell into deep thought.
After coming to this world, Shen Qian immediately understood the plot of the original book.
The original owner was the love-brained and whiny female supporting character in the book. She was rescued by the male protagonist Zhuo Lin when she was out looking for supplies. From then on, she was devoted to Zhuo Lin. The two dated for a short period of time, but Zhuo Lin fell in love with the original owner's stepsister at first sight at the base.
Zhuo Lin broke up with the original owner after explaining the situation to her. He then formally pursued the original owner's stepsister. However, the original owner turned love into hate and became entangled with him. In the end, she acted impulsively and caused a disaster, and died tragically in the zombie tide.
After learning all this, the original owner's son vowed to avenge her, but unfortunately he was captured by the villain and taken to the laboratory. After experiencing all kinds of inhuman torture, he turned into a tragic mutated killing weapon and eventually died at the hands of the protagonists.
After understanding the original novel's plot, Shen Qian decided that this time, she would definitely avoid the male protagonist named Zhuo Lin and stay away from her stepsister. As long as she stayed away from the protagonists, her life in this world would not be too bad. Unexpectedly, she met him right at the beginning. She wanted to go to S City, and after waiting for a month, the only team going there was led by Zhuo Lin.
[Host, you can actually consider not going to S City. ]
The system makes a sound at the appropriate time.
"Shut up, you threw me into the apocalypse and closed the points mall, and you tell me this is a vacation?" Shen Qian retorted angrily in his heart.
It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned it, but once he did, Shen Qian became furious.
During the settlement process before being teleported to this world, the system assured her:
[Host, due to a deviation in the previous world and your outstanding performance, which triggered the reward mechanism, no tasks have been assigned to you in this world. You can treat this world as a restful vacation and arrange your life as you please.]
Chen Qian believed it and thought that she could finally take a break after working so hard for so long. Unexpectedly, the system sent her directly to the end of the world. Moreover, because this was a welfare bureau, the system closed the points mall when she came here.
result……
As soon as Shen Qian opened her eyes, she found something wrong. There were zombies all around her. She had actually traveled to the end of the world!
Fortunately, she had carried out apocalyptic missions before, so she had quite a bit of experience in dealing with zombies. The original owner was not too stupid, and had trained her physique quite well, and she had enough weapons and ammunition, so Shen Qian was able to barely cope with the initial dangerous period.
[Host, as long as you don't go to City S, you don't have to join Zhuo Lin's team, and you can also avoid the people in the main storyline.]
Shen Qian said without hesitation: "I'm going."
There are no missions in this apocalyptic world, so theoretically she can just leave and go to the next world.
For her, staying here was not a benefit of a leisure vacation at all. If she hadn't had some concerns, she would have wanted to leave as soon as she came here.
However, after reading the original plot, she was a little concerned about the stupid son who was later captured as an experimental subject in order to avenge the original owner. She wanted to go to S City to check on the child. Although this child was not her mission, since she was already here, it would not be too much trouble to go and check on him. If possible, she could help a little to fulfill the mother-son relationship. This is the end of the world, and everyone is busy with their own affairs. No one can protect others for a lifetime. In the end, his future path depends on himself.
"Ms. Shen, my captain said that you can sign up, but our team doesn't really need 0-level purification-type psychics, and you still need to pay for the bus fare."
"Three mid-level crystal cores..." Shen Qian couldn't help but say, "This is too expensive!"
After entering the apocalypse, ordinary currency became obsolete, and people soon discovered that some zombies and mutant animals contained crystal cores that could be used to obtain superpowers. Transactions were usually priced in crystal cores.
Intermediate-level crystal cores can only be found in the bodies of intermediate-level mutant animals or zombies. Shen Qian does have one, but she had to fight hard to get it after she traveled through time.
"I'm sorry, our team has its own rules. If you feel embarrassed, why don't you ask someone else..." The team member in charge of reception has already started to persuade him to leave.
In his opinion, there is no need for the action team to bring a purification ability user, let alone a level 0 one. What's the difference between that and bringing an ordinary person?
Chen Qian calmly took out a black velvet bag, pulled out three crystal cores from it, and placed them in front of the other party: "I'll pay for the fare."
The other party didn't expect that she was actually willing to pay for the fare. He muttered in a low voice: "What a tough character! She's only level 0, but she can actually produce three mid-level crystal cores."
"I have a tough life." Shen Qian replied calmly.
There were several people with special abilities who had also come to sign up nearby, and they couldn't help but talk when they saw this.
"Am I seeing things right? A Level 0 dares to team up with others and go to City S? How tough is his life?"
Another person also laughed and said, "Not only is she a level 0, she's also a level 0 purification system. What can we expect her to do? Can we expect her to purify the zombie virus?"
The others did not suppress their laughter, and these words naturally reached Shen Qian's ears. She did not look back. She had seen many people who flattered the powerful and looked down on the weak in the end times, and their final end was often miserable.
Those who can survive to the end are all ruthless and don't talk too much.
However, what they said was not untrue. In the third year of the apocalypse, people with special abilities were no longer a rare species, and there was a very obvious "chain of contempt" among people who had awakened their special abilities.
The most popular people in this kind of action team are naturally those with elemental attack abilities such as fire, thunder, electricity, and metal. They are almost the core force of the team. For example, the male protagonist Zhuo Lin in the book is a rare thunder-type ability user with extremely strong attack power, which enabled him to successfully rescue the original owner from the zombie group in the original book's plot, and he also won the favor of many women.
The least popular ability is purification, which is a relatively auxiliary ability that can only remove toxins, and it can only remove virus activity within a limited range. It is almost ineffective against high-level infected bodies, and the purification system is often upgraded very slowly, consumes a lot of resources, and the results are difficult to see immediately.
In this apocalypse where high risk and high return are the norm, no one is willing to waste resources on a tool, let alone a useless person like the original owner who has not even been able to reach level 1 in three years.
After crossing over, Shen Qian has tried to use her special abilities in various environments. Currently, she can only clean up the remains of mutant plants, disinfect minor wounds, and prevent high fever patients from having attacks.
Anyway, it has nothing to do with combat.
If she wants to improve, she must absorb a large number of crystal cores with specific attributes, or intensively purify high-risk infected people to stimulate the evolution of her superpowers.
She currently cannot do either of these.
Therefore, the best way is to go to City S, find your son, confirm his safety, do what you can, and then leave this world and go to the next world to complete the mission.
After making up his mind, Shen Qian took inventory of the supplies he had accumulated over the past three years. He sold the items that were difficult to carry away at a stall at the base at a low price, and only reserved a small amount of weapons and food for himself to use on the road.
Then Shen Qian followed the Dawn Action Team to City S.
Along the way, Chen Qian wore a baseball cap with the brim pulled down very low. He usually sat in the last row away from the crowd and was unwilling to say a word to anyone.
Every time the car stopped to resupply or clear out a nearby group of zombies, she was calm and efficient. Although she had no special abilities to assist her, her performance was surprisingly good.
Captain Zhuo Lin quickly set his sights on the mysterious woman in the team. Her commonly used weapon was a short-bladed military-style scimitar. The blade was extremely sharp, but it was only suitable for close combat.
Zhuo Lin took a look at the woman's information, a level 0 purification ability user.
Usually, low-level psychics without attack attributes would not choose to engage in close combat with zombies, which made Zhuo Lin even more curious about this woman.
He found that every time this woman chopped, her moves were precise and neat, and her movements were professional. She didn't try to take credit for anything, nor did she slack off. She just quietly dealt with the low-level zombies that the team had ignored.
Sometimes when mutant zombies appear, she would pull out her pistol to kill them because she found it difficult to kill them. She is a good shooter and has accurate prediction, so she rarely misses.
only……
This woman seemed to be deliberately avoiding him. She always seemed to deliberately avoid the area where he was, and would rather take a detour than meet him face to face.
As a fifth-level lightning-type mutant, Zhuo Lin already had amazing observation skills. After he noticed this woman, he quickly realized this.
Zhuo Lin didn't take it to heart, he just thought it was strange. Other women would rush up to him when they saw him, but this woman would hide away from him as if she saw a ghost.
Shen Qian chose a short-bladed knife to train his reaction speed. Since his supernatural powers could not be improved in a short period of time, he had to improve his survival ability when teaming up with others. Otherwise, when he arrived in S City, let alone finding his son, even protecting himself would become a problem.
Initially, the team members looked down on Shen Qian, a level 0 purification ability user, and complained a lot. However, Zhuo Lin was very strict about the team's cohesion, and Shen Qian also worked hard. Although the zombies he killed were all low-level, they were no less than those of others, so gradually no one complained.
However, Shen Qian was still a little worried. If she continued at this pace, she would not be able to upgrade, and the crystal cores she obtained would only be enough to sustain her life. She could only take one step at a time.
