Chapter 319 Selfishness
If he was not on the road now, Lu Weiyi would probably have kept the energy in his crystal core empty. In this way, there would be no energy that could be dissipated in the crystal core, and he would naturally not have a headache. But now he needs support at all times, and can only consume the dissipated energy at intervals.
This made him wake up after a while both during the day and at night, resulting in lack of sleep, and he felt exhausted after a long time.
Zhuang Mingxu didn’t have a good solution either. “You can ask Zhuang Mobai later. He has done in-depth research on this area and may have some scientific solution.”
Lu Weiyi nodded, "I understand. I will go and input some superpowers into Yin Jin, and you can take care of the supplements as needed."
Zhuang Mingxu nodded, and Lu Weiyi stood up and returned to the truck, using the partition to block entry into the space.
Zhuang Mingxu turned around and thought about making some food that would suit their taste, so that Lu Weiyi and the two children could eat as much as possible in the next period of time.
After taking a look at the storage in his space, Zhuang Mingxu said to Gu Qingyue, "Qingyue, go ask the butcher to bring some meat over. Shank meat is best. We can braise some meat to eat on the way. By the way, we can also light a pot and boil a few pieces, slice them, and put them in the pickled peppers."
"Okay." Gu Qingyue put the kneaded pancake into the electric baking pan and left quickly.
"Zhuang, can we braise it? Braised dog meat is delicious." Dean, who had been feeding the three little wolf cubs with Zhuang Aiyi, said as he walked over.
"Okay." Today was the day for rest and preparation, and Zhuang Mingxu agreed very kindly.
"Zhuang, do you have a crystal core?" Dean walked up to him and asked in a low voice. Seeing Zhuang Mingxu looking at him, he said sincerely, "I heard it."
"I want to help too." After his last upgrade, Lu Weiyi's crystal core became much more stable. If he catches up with his next upgrade, it might be able to recover directly.
Dean thought happily.
Zhuang Mingxu looked at the three people standing in the corner of the yard smoking and talking. Antonio was an egoist. If he could let him stand up and test it himself, he must be unwilling to let Dean take risks. "Have you asked Antonio?"
"I'll make the decision myself." Dean said this while carefully glancing in Antonio's direction. When he saw him looking at him, he immediately stood up and pointed at the large basin of cooked bones in front of Zhuang Mingxu, smiling like a little sun.
Antonio nodded and smiled at him, then continued talking to the person in front of him.
Zhuang Mingxu watched their interaction.
Under normal circumstances, he would not give it to Dean, but there was no solution to Lu Weiyi's situation now, and Dean was the only possibility, so he didn't want to give up at all.
If his identity was changed, and if Dean was not his teammate, he might dare to capture him and force him to upgrade. Thinking of this, he glanced in Xu Yi's direction with regret.
It would be great if this person was still not obedient and had bad intentions.
Xu Yi, who was helping to pick vegetables, sensitively sensed the danger. He looked around like a vigilant little animal, but did not find anything unusual. Instead, he attracted Li Zhuang's attention.
Li Zhuang raised his eyebrows and asked silently. Xu Yi immediately curled up into a ball, wishing she would disappear from his sight, which made Li Zhuang laugh silently.
Zhuang Mingxu looked at Dean with his little golden hair and childish face, and felt a little bit reluctant. But when he looked back at Lu Weiyi's listless look, he gradually became more determined.
After only a moment of contemplation, he took out a few packets of crystal cores as if nothing had happened and handed them to Dean. Dean quickly put them into his own space, and then he heard him whisper, "Be sensible and don't force yourself."
Dean responded, happily picked up a big bone from the small basin beside him, bit it and took a mouthful of oil. Then he turned around as if he was being chased, and ran away with a giggle.
…
Everything was ready, and the next morning everyone was ready to set off.
After the Zhuang family's supply trucks were put away, there were only ten military off-road vehicles and a truck full of people left outside.
On Lu Weiyi's side, it was still a giant truck.
As expected, not long after entering the city, the number of zombies began to gradually increase.
Qi Lin and Gu Qingyue were in the driving seat, and all the members of Team 2 were on the second floor of the truck, killing the zombies around them.
Lu Weiyi said he didn't care, but still quietly threw the little green branch out to collect the crystal cores.
Especially when he saw that he was surrounded by zombies, he sat directly on the roof of the car. Although it seemed that he did nothing, his strength was there, and immediately gave the fighting people a sense of backup, and his supernatural powers were released more and more without leaving any room for them.
Xu Yi also fully understood why Ning Yuan had assigned him to this team before.
At the beginning, when there were few zombies, the people scattered on the ground could still dodge the zombies' attacks, but when there were more zombies, they had no time to dodge. They could only avoid the fatal parts, and the rest was to rely on their bodies to resist.
In a short while, their bodies were covered with wounds. Xu Yi watched them being dragged down and treated, and then he returned to his position like a madman with red eyes.
An indescribable feeling arose in my heart.
He looked at the S-level psychics who were lying on the beds in the carriage and relaxing. He approached Xu Sa and asked in a low voice, "Is this how you all upgraded?"
Xu Sa reacted and followed his gaze to see the large blisters left on Lin Mo's skin after his clothes were burned, as well as the white wound on half of his arm that was turned outward, and understood what he meant.
Xu Yi strode towards the door of the carriage and heard him reply in a flat tone, "We're just getting started."
He continuously sent his supernatural powers to the injured person's body. Seeing that he had absorbed more crystal cores in the morning than in the previous half month, Xu Yi finally couldn't help but curse viciously, "What a bunch of perverts!"
The next morning, someone from Zhuang Mingbo's side was the first to fail to adapt.
There were two elderly people on their side, both of whom were nearly eighty years old. The off-road vehicle was not spacious enough, and they also had to carry supplies that they would use for a short period of time, so moving their bodies was a luxury.
What's more, the road surface is not smooth. After the earthquake, no one repaired the damaged road. Now it is uneven and some places are overgrown with tough weeds.
If they encounter a passage that is truly difficult to pass, the only earth-type psychic in the team will do a little bit of construction, and most of the time the psychic power will not be wasted.
No matter how good the off-road performance was, the constant bumps caused Mr. Zhuang to vomit violently and then faint.
"Fainted? What happened?" Zhuang Mingxu asked after hearing Zhuang Mingbo's words on the intercom.
They had just passed a small county town and had just rushed out of the encirclement of the city zombies, but the zombies were now moving quickly and had been following them for quite a while. There were also zombies with special powers constantly throwing various special powers at them.
Stopping at this time would be tantamount to trapping the team members in the midst of zombies again.
"I'm not sure. The person I was traveling with said he was having difficulty breathing. The doctor is no longer in that car. Mingxu..." Zhuang Mingbo obviously knew this too. He didn't know what decision to make for a moment.
Zhuang Mingxu jumped to the second floor, nimbly dodged a fireball thrown by Liu Yang at the zombies, and looked around with a telescope.
"We can't park now. The geographical location is not suitable. There is a fork in the road two kilometers ahead that leads to a mountain. Let's park on the mountain," Zhuang Mingxu said and called out to Qi Lin, who was sitting in the passenger seat.
"You go up the mountain now and see what the situation is over there. We will stay there for a while."
Qi Lin leaned out and made an OK gesture, then jumped out of the car window. He stepped over a few zombie heads and rushed forward like a gust of wind, with only a shadow left in his peripheral vision.
In less than five minutes, Qi Lin returned, and the dragon bone knife in his hand accurately cut off the necks of a row of zombies, successfully opening a path and returning to the car.
"It's a wrinkled mountain with a cliff on one side. There is little vegetation on the mountain and no large animals," Qi Lin replied.
Zhuang Mingxu nodded and directed the car to drive onto the side road.
"Let your men get off the car and eliminate all the zombies that are chasing them," Zhuang Mingxu said to Zhuang Mingbo.
The leading car rushed up the mountain, and the zombies that followed were often weighed down by the slope and rolled down, causing the number of zombies in the front to decrease and the cars behind to be unable to move forward.
"Clean up these zombies, do you need support?" Zhuang Mingxu estimated the number of zombies and asked a few people from the second team who jumped off the carriage.
Xu Yi quickly healed the wounds of several people. Without saying anything, they picked up their familiar weapons, jumped out of the car and ran to the back.
Zhuang Mingxu knew that this meant that no support was needed, so he handed the command loudspeaker to Lu Weiyi and hurriedly said to Xu Yi, "Help me treat a patient."
Xu Yi felt like a field doctor all day, on call for twelve hours at any time. When he heard these words, he followed reflexively.
The psychic who came down in front was gradually forced to retreat with the zombie. Zhuang Mingxu, who was leading the way, held a one-meter-long scimitar in his hand and occasionally stabbed the zombies that were not yet dead, or directly used the blade to block the attacking psychic powers.
Xu Yi followed behind him, and even though there were supernatural beings flying around from time to time, he was not hurt at all.
Xu Yi looked around carefully and felt that he might be the most useless member of the team except for Zhuang Aiyi. Even the dwarf Dean's shooting skills were at the level of being able to hit the target from a hundred paces away.
This made him put on less and less airs after he left the Kyoto base. He worked very hard all day long, fearing that he would cause dissatisfaction to some hidden boss.
He felt that he had fallen from a respected healing psychic to a poor little person, but he also felt that he had found the right person.
But right now, he just hoped that he could return to their base alive and safely.
"Here" Zhuang Mingxu stopped in front of a car and opened the door. A middle-aged man put an old man directly on the ground and kept stirring his fingers in his mouth. After a while, the old man vomited.
The man opened his eyes dazedly.
Zhuang Mingxu raised his chin towards Xu Yi. Xu Yi stepped forward, used his special power to move around his body, stood up and shook his head, "There is no external injury."
He is not a professional doctor, and this is all he can see.
