Chapter 2017 Hejin Cat Winter
At around nine o'clock, Lin Minghong came with his two daughters to see them off personally. The two girls washed themselves and changed their clothes, looking pretty and beautiful.
Because they were in a hurry, they just exchanged a few pleasantries. Before leaving, Lin Minghong took a box from the person next to him and handed it over, "This is a new injection developed at our base. Once injected into the body, the superpowers of the superpowered person will not be able to be exerted. The performance is still unstable and there may be sequelae. Moreover, the materials are limited, so not many can be made. I'm giving one to each of you. I hope it can help you at the critical moment."
They had just discussed this matter in the morning, and now it was sent over. Ning Yuan suspected in his heart that he was testing their thoughts, but he wanted to accept something that was sent to his doorstep. "Then we would like to thank Brother Lin. Now that the country is stable, you are welcome to come to Kyoto."
"Have a safe journey," said Lin Minghong.
Chen Guozhong led his men to personally escort them out of the base.
The group didn't open the box until they were far away. Inside was a blue frozen injection that looked quite mysterious. Lu Weiyi had never heard of this thing in his previous life and now he felt even more curious.
"Lin Minghong is so amazing. He can even research this thing. Those with special abilities will never get any good results in his hands." Ning Yuan also stared at the injection. He wanted to try it, but was afraid that it was too fragile.
"Under normal circumstances, shouldn't we study the zombie potion first?" Wu Yue said, "I especially want to know what purpose he had in researching this thing."
"You're not still thinking about expanding your territory and conquering major bases, are you?" Xu Sa asked.
"It's not that exaggerated. This thing is not that strong." If it was really powerful, it must have been promoted privately in the previous life. Lu Weiyi closed the box and put it into the space and said, "This has to be injected. How can it be injected unless it is a close person?"
"What if it is improved into shooting, like a tranquilizer gun?" Li Zhuang said.
Lu Weiyi shook his head. "As long as the psychics are on guard, they can block bullets. This thing can't get close to them. It's okay to do bad things in private, but it won't have much effect on the big stage. If they really want to expand their influence, the most direct way is to use crystal core weapons. Destroying a base is no problem at all."
Lu Weiyi thought of the thing designed by Lu Xi in his previous life. The effect was really strong. It seemed that he had not paid much attention to Lu Xi's research recently, and he didn't know how he was doing. Since Lu Xi was upgraded, he seemed to have a new understanding of the experiment.
Starting again, the group continued to travel day and night. Only when they came across a city would they stop for a day or two to hunt zombies.
As the number of B-level zombies increased, they began to gradually repeat the process of recovering from injuries along the way. Everyone became more and more proficient in manipulating their own abilities, and they could even figure out new tricks in battle.
At the end of March, the daytime temperature dropped to minus 30 degrees Celsius, and cold and heavy snow followed.
The snowflakes were no longer soft. They were frozen by the cold air like ice knives. They would not melt even if they fell into your hands. They piled up layer by layer. In less than two hours, the road was completely buried.
"We can't see the road anymore. Should we continue driving?" Li Dongsheng, who was driving, reduced the speed to the minimum, but still couldn't stop the car from skidding. He drove cautiously.
"We have reached the border of Pingjin City, which is about two or three days away from the urban area. Under such road conditions, it may take even longer." Zhuang Mingxu studied the route while holding the map.
"Let's find a place to rest nearby. It's a good opportunity for me to get a promotion." Ning Yuan held an unlit cigarette and would put it to his nose to sniff it from time to time.
Lu Weiyi went to find Liu Rui and Antonio. The two also suffered from the lack of crystal cores with the same attributes. Liu Rui nodded at him, and Antonio held the sleeping Dean and made an OK sign from a distance.
The group chose Hejin County, which is located on the edge of Pingjin City.
Before the end of the world, Hejin County was not very large, with a total population of only about 100,000 people, and the train station was right at the entrance of the city.
The ticket hall on the second floor was empty, and the white snow covered the sky and the earth, making it impossible to tell whether there was any dirt hidden underneath.
Lu Weiyi scanned with his mental power and said, "There is no danger." To be exact, there is nothing at all.
A basement was dug, with the entrance set up at the ticket counter in the hall. Even if someone comes in, the ticket counter will cover them so they won't be seen immediately, making it convenient for them to come out and investigate the situation.
With someone with earth-type abilities, a basement can be built easily in a few minutes. Once the fire-type abilities are used, it will be dry inside and short-term living will not be a problem.
Once the lights and daily necessities were put away, the temporary residence was ready. Apart from being a little stuffy, there were no other problems. After dinner, I began to prepare for the upgrade.
"Let's go to the payment hall upstairs. Use earth walls to repair the broken glass." Lu Weiyi made the final decision and determined the location.
There were only three or four hundred crystal cores in total from the B-level zombies that they had hunted before. Lu Weiyi saved all of them except for those he used himself, and now he took them out to help them upgrade.
He divided the crystal cores into several portions and gave them to the three people. "I'm not sure how many crystal cores you need. These are 100 B-grade crystal cores, and these are 3,000 primary crystal cores. Absorb the primary ones first, and then use the B-grade ones when you feel you are almost ready to upgrade. The process is similar to the last upgrade. If you have any problems, feel free to tell me."
The three people nodded, sat on each side, and began to absorb the crystal core.
Lu Weiyi sat at the cashier's desk, and the rest of the people sat or stood nearby, silently watching their situation.
With higher levels, the speed of absorbing crystal cores naturally increases, and a handful of crystal cores will be in their hands in a matter of seconds.
At first everyone stared in silence. An hour later, they were still absorbing the crystal cores silently.
"No, I can't hold on any longer. I'm going to sleep first. Call me if anything happens." Xiong Jie was a little dazed, and Xi Shi, who was beside him, was yawning from time to time.
"Go to bed, I'll keep watch." Xu Sa was holding a mobile phone in his hand, playing a stand-alone game, and occasionally looking up in the direction of Liu Rui. As someone who has experience in companionship, what I say now is absolutely true.
Lu Weiyi had to be ready to solve problems at all times. After all, the higher the level, the more problems would arise when upgrading. He folded his arms and remained silent.
Dean was wrapped up like a ball, with only his eyes exposed. He shook his head and said in a vague voice, "David must want to see me first."
"I slept during the day, so I'm not sleepy now." In the same environment, the psychic Xu Sa only wore a down jacket and a pair of fleece boots. Compared with Dean next to him, it seemed as if they were not in the same season.
This time, with the prepared B-level crystal cores, several people experienced the same situation as Li Zhuang, and finally managed to get through it.
"What's going on?" The three of them felt that their energy was just a little short of being able to be improved, and they didn't even bother to experience their superpowers.
"There are not enough crystal cores. It would be much better if there were more B-level crystal cores," Lu Weiyi explained.
"What if I didn't persist...?" Ning Yuan asked tentatively.
"Upgrade failed..." Lu Weiyi thought about those people who failed to upgrade in his previous life, opened his mouth and thought for a while, "It's not what you want to see."
Ning Yuan closed his mouth silently.
“Let’s continue hunting zombies starting tomorrow,” suggested the experienced Li Zhuang.
A few people who were still frightened looked at those who had not yet upgraded and nodded silently.
**
The snow never stopped.
The snow layer spread from the soles of the feet and ankles to the knees. It was frozen hard like ice. When you stepped on it, only shallow footprints were left.
In the entire Hejin County, there were no living creatures except zombies.
Unable to leave, Lu Weiyi and several A-level psychics developed a strict training plan, combining everyone's skills and abilities, and vowed to help those with low abilities to move up a solid level.
It is equivalent to a one-on-one desperate plan, which makes everyone who is not good at fighting repeat the process of exhausting and replenishing their superpowers and continuing to exhaust them, forcing them to upgrade.
"I hope that when the temperature rises, everyone's abilities will be above level A," Lu Nanyi distributed the plan.
There are different training methods for the combat system and the daily system.
As both of them are from the Wood element, Gu Qingji is constantly fighting against zombies, while Bai Miao and Li Dongsheng are constantly promoting the growth of plants.
"If you have any opinions, you can raise them now." Lu Weiyi already has the demeanor of a leader. He began to consider everyone in the team and be responsible for everyone. "If anyone doesn't want to participate, they can apply now. Once accepted, they are not allowed to withdraw."
Everyone looks at their own plans and thinks they are terrible, but if you look at the people around you, you will know that there is no worst, only worse.
Several people who participated in the plan looked gloating at this moment.
"Is there... a deadline? Like a rest day or something?" Xu Sa tentatively stretched out her little feet and asked.
"…Complete the upgrade or an accident may occur." Lu Weiyi stood in front of the crowd, his posture straight, his childish look full of determination.
Xu Sa was the last to awaken among the group. He had never encountered a crystal core of the same type as the Thunder Element. Looking at his plan, he seemed to see endless hard days in his future, and collapsed in despair.
Seeing that no one objected, Lu Weiyi began to arrange the groups, "One-on-one supervision and protection, Li Zhuang and Xu Sa are in one group, Antonio and Gu Qingji are in one group, Ning Yuan and Wu Yue are in one group, and Liu Rui and Xiongjie are in one group."
He took out four bags of fifty B-level crystal cores and one hundred primary crystal cores from the space, "This is your salary. I require that you complete the task at all costs while ensuring safety."
The four A-level psychics looked at each other, then looked at their team members, took the crystal cores, and smiled slyly at the same time.
"Gu Qingyue, Bai Miao and Li Dongsheng are under the supervision of Zhuang Mingxu at the base. If the effect cannot be achieved, you will join them in hunting zombies. I hope you don't take chances." After Lu Weiyi finished speaking, he looked at Lu Xi, "Including you, at least reach the intermediate level. If not, I will take you there myself."
As a spiritual person, Lu Xi thought about the feeling of being dominated by Lu Weiyi's supernatural powers and quickly vowed, "I must train hard."
Lu Weiyi nodded and said, "It will be implemented starting tomorrow. The meeting is adjourned."
After the others dispersed, Lu Weiyi left behind a few A-level psychics. After opening the explored map of Hejin County, he divided the areas into specific areas and emphasized the specific implementation plans and possible dangerous issues that might arise.
Zhuang Mingxu, who left with everyone, looked back and saw that under the light, several people were discussing something, and they seemed like real partners.
In front, several people holding their plans looked at each other and sighed. They had the same situation.
This was a situation that he could not participate in, and he seemed to be excluded invisibly.
