Chapter 529: Healing System Upgrade
Zheng Yi thought about Li Zhuang's skills which were not inferior to his, and silently withdrew his hand that was pouring wine for Zhuang Mingxu. However, he was still a little unwilling to give it to him, after all, high-level fire crystal cores were really hard to find.
"I have sacrificed many lives for this crystal core. Can you give me a discount?"
"Then keep it for yourself and absorb it." Fire overcomes metal, this crystal core is indeed rare, but it is useless to Zheng Yi, and its effect is not as good as other types.
If Zheng Yi could exchange it with others of the same level, he would not take it out for purification at this time.
Sure enough, Zheng Yi gritted his teeth at Zhuang Mingxu for a long time and finally agreed, but he was really heartbroken. He turned around and poured a large bowl of wine for Zhuang Mingxu, as if he was going to get him drunk.
Zhuang Mingxu was not afraid of anyone coming, and he was thinking about the possibility of Liu Rui successfully upgrading with this fire crystal core.
The group of people were chatting and laughing, and they didn't look like they had any ill intentions at all. During this time, Zheng Yi and Hu Cheng also took out the crystal cores they wanted to exchange this time.
It has to be said that the Kyoto base is very wealthy. The exchange amount for A-level crystal cores alone is as high as 30,000, while the exchange amount for B-level is as high as more than 200,000.
After having a good meal and a few drinks, Zheng Yi and his companions were allowed to leave, but Hu Cheng and Jin Diao stayed behind without any prior arrangement.
Knowing that Major General Lu might have something secret to say, Hu Cheng spoke first, "Captain Zhuang, our Chief Sheriff Zhao has something he wants me to convey."
Even though Zhuang Mingxu had drunk a lot, his eyes were still clear. He made a gesture of invitation and led the people into the inner room of the restaurant.
Hu Cheng carefully took out two crystal cores and handed them to Zhuang Mingxu, "Our Chief Police Officer Zhao also hopes that you can help us purify two S-level crystal cores."
Zhuang Mingxu took them and took a look, and found that both of them were earth-type crystal cores.
This is really a great achievement done quietly.
For high-level psychics, the difference in absorption of crystal cores of different attributes becomes increasingly obvious. Maybe four S-level crystal cores are enough to upgrade a psychic to SS level, but crystal cores of different attributes require double that. If encountering a conflicting attribute, the amount will be even higher.
Zhao Qiang was able to collect these two silently, so I think he has some plans for upgrading.
"Captain Zhao said that our storage is limited and we can't give you crystal cores of the same level, but..." Hu Cheng took out another bag of crystal cores and opened it to reveal a bag full of golden cores.
All the crystal cores here are actually fire crystal cores.
"Here we have B-level and A-level. How do you think of using these as compensation?"
Zhuang Mingxu took it and had someone check it directly. The total energy in the bag was almost as much as an S-level fire crystal core.
"What else does he want to say?" Zhuang Mingxu asked after calming down.
"We also have a healing psychic in our team, take a look..."
Last time when the guard team's healing department came to upgrade, Zhuang Mingxu had already told them the method of upgrading the healing department in Yuebanwan, which was nothing more than an energy-reducing headband plus a purification crystal core. It seems that Zhao Qiang is...
"Captain Zhao naturally believes in you, but..." Hu Cheng looked a little embarrassed, "He believes that only upgrading in your base can succeed."
Well, this is purely psychological suggestion.
"If the person is brought here and if he is OK after examination, I will have our base healer monitor and guide him in upgrading."
"Thank you very much."
Hu Cheng said this and left quickly.
When Zhuang Mingxu came out, Golden Eagle had already asked the guard next to him about the situation of several team members who had traveled with their base before. Unfortunately, the guard was tight-lipped and no reliable information was obtained.
"They are all recovering well. Are you okay too?"
"It's okay now." The golden eagle took out a bag of crystal cores from the space and handed it to Zhuang Mingxu, "The major general asked me to give it to you."
Zhuang Mingxu felt that the crystals he harvested today were really too many. He opened them and took a look, and was stunned.
There is only one crystal core inside, and there is no need to test it. Just by touching the crystal core, Zhuang Mingxu knows that it is an S-grade one.
More importantly, this is a fire crystal core.
And Lu Xiao is of the fire type.
"The major general said that even if he absorbed it he would not be able to upgrade immediately. You guys should need it more, so I'll lend it to you first."
Zhuang Mingxu personally felt the elders' pure concern without any self-interest. He put the crystal core away without saying anything extra.
Lu Xiao usually keeps in close contact with Yuebanwan, especially recently communicating with Lu Weiyi and the two bases. There is nothing specific that needs to be conveyed by him. After handing over the crystal core, the golden eagle turned around and prepared to leave. After thinking about it, he turned back and reminded, "Three of the people Zheng Yi brought this time have very weak combat power. Two of them are well-known healing psychics. I suspect the other one is also..."
This means that they may have been concealing the number of healing personnel all along.
"I understand, thank you."
After borrowing the wood-type mutant from the guard team, Zhao Qiang sent a healing-type mutant over to help with the upgrade. Zheng Yi also wanted to send one over after hearing the news.
Zhuang Mingxu informed the other party of the upgrade process. After all, now that he had given the other party the energy-reducing headband and the purification crystal core, there was no other technical content.
Now it seems that Zheng Yi doesn't believe it.
Zhuang Mingxu walked back to Zhongdao under the moonlight. There was no one around because of the martial law. The entire base was on full alert except for the patrolmen. As an ordinary person, he was not in any danger.
When I returned to the villa, I was almost sober.
Lu Xi and Dean were playing stand-alone games in the living room of the villa. Seeing him come back, Lu Xi did two things at once, "Ai Yi has fallen asleep. He is in your bedroom. Brother Xi left you some sobering soup. Drink it and your stomach will feel better tomorrow."
"Okay, why aren't you asleep yet?" Zhuang Mingxu changed his shoes and went into the kitchen.
"My dad said that Zheng Yi might have bad intentions, so he asked me to keep an eye on you and Ai Yi in the next few days. I decided to keep watch tonight." Lu Xi patted his chest like a little adult.
Zhuang Mingxu looked at the person who was directing the little man to eat mushrooms and laughed, "No need. The infrared and superpower scanners will be turned on at night. The alarm will be triggered when anyone, whether ordinary people or superpower people, approach. You have been traveling for two days, so take a good rest."
"Your Uncle Lin hasn't come back yet?"
"No, he called this afternoon and said he would be on duty tonight and would not be back. Uncle Li was with him and told us not to worry."
Zhuang Mingxu nodded, called Lin Yimu, finished a bowl of soup, and waved to Dean, "I need you to do something tomorrow."
Dean pointed at himself, confused.
"Yes, there are several healing systems in the Guard and Zheng family that need to be upgraded tomorrow morning. I asked Brother Lin to gather a group of people near you. I hope the energy brought by the healing system upgrade will be beneficial to them. By then..."
He leaned close to Dean's ear and whispered for a long time. Dean's expression changed from confusion to surprise and finally to a smirk. He gave Zhuang Mingxu a childish military salute and said, "Don't worry, I will complete the task."
That night, the news that someone had visited the giant crab area at night reached Zhuang Mingxu's ears.
Lin Yimu took the specially installed monitoring equipment, pointed at the figure reflected in it and said, "It has been confirmed that it is a member of Zheng's army. The investigation shows that he is a speed-related mutant."
Zhuang Mingxu looked at the person on the screen, who was swaggering on the crab's back, even touching it from time to time. He thought it was funny, "Has he forgotten that there is a thing called surveillance in the world?"
"The Kyoto base is currently running low on electricity, so how could they house something like this? Should we expose them?"
"No need. It's not fun to expose them. But we still need to remind them. It's more fun if there's something stuck in your throat." Zhuang Mingxu had a sarcastic look on his face and his words were full of bad taste.
"Is the hidden information above okay? Zheng Yi is about to upgrade now, and can feel the power of this level of supernatural power."
"No, the traces above are simulations of the attack made by the young master's superpowers. As long as the other party is not mistaken, the conclusion they draw must be that there are more powerful weapons or superpowers involved." They had already experimented several times during the initial discussion, and Lin Yimu was reassured about this. "In addition, there were people who wanted to get closer to the vicinity of the island, apparently to see where our protective shield was powered, but they were discovered by the patrol and ran away."
Zhuang Mingxu chuckled and didn't comment. He just watched the performance in the video, "Where are Ning Yuan and the others?"
"They are about to approach the Nanheng Base, which is the closest to the Kyoto Base. They plan to lead the zombies to avoid the Nanheng Base and head directly towards Kyoto in the next few days."
This is also the reason why Ning Yuan and others disappeared after the exercise began.
Many people from the teams in the base thought that they were the attacking party in this operation, hiding in the dark and stabbing quietly. In fact, a group of people had already left the base and reached the vanguard of the zombie army, leading the zombies towards Kyoto.
Zhuang Mingxu pinched his brows and sighed. The lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Kyoto...
I hope this will allow Zheng Yi to focus his attention where it should be.
Seeing the guards outside approaching this side, Zhuang Mingxu stood up and said, "Send a message to them, tell them to evacuate immediately if they encounter that strange zombie."
**
According to the request they had mentioned in advance, Zheng Yi and others wanted to go to the Joint Research Institute in the morning to check the research progress of zombie energy.
When Zhuang Mingxu arrived, the person in charge of reception had already accompanied the group to have breakfast. Zheng Yi was standing in front of Hu Cheng, stopping him and whispering to him. Several reception staff from Yuebanwan stood aside, looking as if they were not participating.
Seeing Zhuang Mingxu coming over, Hu Cheng and Zheng Yi looked over at the same time.
"You're finally here" Zheng Yi said exaggeratedly.
"Aren't we going to the Joint Research Institute? What are you doing?" Zhuang Mingxu really didn't know what was going on this time.
Hu Cheng's face looked unhappy and he gestured to Zheng Yi to speak.
"It's like this. Didn't Lao Zhao say that a healing psychic came to upgrade? I also brought one here. Let's see if Lao Zhuang can upgrade him together?"
"You are so cautious. I told you the upgrade method last time, but you still insisted on coming here." Zhuang Mingxu was helpless and waved to the entourage, "Contact Dean and ask him to help upgrade them."
"Okay, everyone follow me."
As soon as he finished speaking, ten people came out of the team at once. Zhuang Mingxu raised his eyebrows, "There are so many healers in your team?"
