Chapter 297 Healing System Upgrade
Lu Weiyi's eyes lit up and he looked up at Lu Xiao.
Then Lu Xiao said, "Recently, the radio has shown signs of recovery, and we can occasionally receive some news from the surrounding areas. My people just received a message a few days ago, which was a message for help from a weapons research and development base in Cangnan."
"I originally planned to take people there myself, but now it seems that I can't go anytime soon. The most likely option is to cooperate with other forces in the Kyoto base and bring the people under the common ownership of the base..."
"Then it's better for us to go. There is no extra force in our base now, and there will be no disputes over results. If my uncle needs it, I will definitely not be stingy," Lu Weiyi recommended himself.
"The distance over there is not close, you have to think it over carefully. Besides, I'm not sure if anyone in other bases has received the news." Lu Xiao gave him a heads-up in advance.
"Don't worry, uncle. I will discuss it with the team members, and we will make the next plan after everyone agrees," Lu Weiyi assured.
"Don't worry. If anything happens, just come to your uncle. Your uncle will protect you no matter what." Lu Xiao rubbed Lu Weiyi's fluffy hair.
"Thank you, uncle."
On that day, Lu Xiao asked someone to hand over all the information collected about the Cangnan Weapons Base to Lu Weiyi.
Zhuang Mingxu began analyzing the data that night to identify people who might have survived and usable supplies that might have been preserved.
Without waiting to notify the team members to attend the meeting, Liu Rui hurriedly ran down from upstairs and even fell down in his anxiety.
"What's wrong?" Zhuang Mingxu was the only one left in the living room. He was sorting out documents. Upon seeing him like this, he stood up and walked over quickly.
"sough……"
"Xu Sa has a fever and is having convulsions," Gu Qingji, who was following closely behind him, finished speaking for him, "My brother said he needs some antipyretic drugs."
After hearing this, Zhuang Mingxu strode into the bedroom and pulled Lu Weiyi up from the bed.
"What's going on?" Lu Weiyi was trying to distance himself from his chaotic mental energy, and he almost fell down in his haste to get out of bed.
Zhuang Mingxu embraced her and walked upstairs.
In the corridor, all the team members have come out and gathered nearby to inquire about the situation.
The bodies of people with special abilities are strengthened by their special abilities, so they basically never get sick. However, they are now in the recovery period after drug metabolism, and it is uncertain whether there are any sequelae left. Xu Sa's situation made everyone a little nervous.
Inside the room, Gu Qingyue took a look at the thermometer and said to Lu Weiyi, "39.5 degrees."
"Did you catch a cold?" Gu Qingji asked.
Seeing other people looking at him, he was silent for a moment and explained, "I saw him staying on the balcony all afternoon."
After saying that, he turned to look at Liu Rui, who nodded to confirm his statement.
Lu Weiyi was extremely angry and was about to lose his temper when Zhuang Mingxu tugged at the corner of his clothes slightly and raised his chin towards the outside.
Lu Weiyi immediately remembered the situation outside - Zhang Bijuan and her son stood outside for the entire afternoon, and were not picked up by Qin's family until the evening.
Lu Weiyi was so disappointed with Gu Qingyue that he gritted his teeth, took out the syringe from the space and handed it to Gu Qingyue, saying, "Give me an injection."
The members of the team had not recovered yet. In the end, Qi Lin and Xu Yi, two psychics, guarded him for half the night respectively. In the middle, Gu Qingyue gave him another injection, and his fever subsided at dawn.
Early in the morning, when Lu Weiyi went upstairs, Xu Sa had just finished washing up and had returned to his usual self. He even asked about Lu Weiyi's physical condition.
"Not bad," Lu Weiyi asked bluntly, "Do you want to go and meet them?"
He didn't say who it was, but Xu Sa knew it well but didn't say anything.
Lu Weiyi repeated the warning that he had asked Lu Xiao to give yesterday.
The two were silent for a long time, and Xu Sa whispered, "When I was a child, she was not like this..."
Lu Weiyi has never been the kind of person who can comfort others, especially when he himself is not feeling well. He is not even sure if he will die if something goes wrong with his crystal core one day, and he has no intention of listening to Xu Sa reminiscing about the past.
He interrupted swiftly, "That's because she didn't get the opportunity."
"The evil in the bones of a villain will never change. The only difference is whether there is a chance to tear off that layer of human skin," Lu Weiyi said, and handed the investigation materials given by Lu Xiao to Xu Sa.
"Sorry, Xu Ergou, I'm not feeling well and don't have the energy to listen to your reminiscing about the past. The golden eagles are downstairs. If you want to go over there, you can ask them to go with you." After Lu Weiyi finished speaking, he got up and left.
He rubbed his brows and walked downstairs. At the corner, Zhuang Mingxu was waiting there. Seeing that his hands were empty, he asked in a low voice, "Did you give it to him? Isn't that too cruel?"
"Cut the Gordian knot with a sharp knife; cutting flesh with a blunt knife is the most painful," Lu Weiyi said decisively, and added in a neither loud nor low voice, "If he can't make a decision, I'll make it for him."
Zhuang Mingxu didn't know whether it was good or bad that Xu Sa either didn't care about anything or was very clear about his grudges and there was no room for easing the tension. He just hoped that Xu Sa could handle it himself.
When they went downstairs, they saw Antonio standing alone in the rain under the eaves. When he saw them come out, he looked like he didn't know how to start the conversation.
Zhuang Mingxu thought for a moment, met Antonio's gaze, and said nonchalantly, "It's up to you."
Antonio shrugged his shoulders, put on a raincoat and went out of the yard.
Lu Weiyi looked over in confusion, and Zhuang Mingxu directly handed him the Zheng family's visiting card, "The Zheng family should know that we took action."
"Seeking revenge?" Lu Weiyi asked.
"Maybe...just bow your head first" Zhuang Mingxu said a possibility.
"Then we..."
"Of course I don't admit it," Zhuang Mingxu said, taking Lu Weiyi back to the room.
The two discussed the possible situations and responses that the Zheng family might face, and then turned to talk about the situation at the Cangnan Weapons Research and Development Base.
Just when Zhuang Mingxu thought that Lu Weiyi had almost forgotten that Antonio had gone out, and was about to ask him to take him to the laboratory to take another look, he saw Lu Weiyi suddenly sit up, completely changing his sickly look of the past few days, and quickly went out and ran upstairs.
Zhuang Mingxu, who sensed something was wrong, followed closely behind. When he went upstairs, he saw that the man had already reached Antonio's room.
In the room, Dean frowned, looking painfully at Lu Weiyi, at a loss.
"What's wrong?" Lu Xi in the next room was concentrating on reading documents. He came out when he heard the noise. People from the other rooms also came out to inquire.
"He's going to be upgraded," Lu Weiyi said, then he walked forward to help Dean sit down and called out, "Xu Yi."
He had never seen a healing ability user upgrade, so he was not sure how it was different from other ability upgrades.
Xu Yi had already come up from downstairs. Seeing this scene, he curled his lips and said, "You are so lucky."
"All of you gather in his room," he ordered, walked in and sat opposite Dean, "You absorb the crystal core."
The people around looked at each other, wanting to ask the reason, but seeing that Dean looked like he couldn't hold on any longer, they crowded into the small room and tried to stay a little further away from Dean.
Zhuang Mingxu looked around and arranged for the guards in the villa to pay attention to the surroundings, and whispered to them to call Antonio back.
Dean glanced at Lu Weiyi and saw him nod. Then he took out the crystal core from the space and continued to absorb it.
Lu Weiyi sat side by side with Xu Yi, close to him, to make sure he could lend a hand in case of any emergency.
"Just keep absorbing. The healing system upgrade does not have a corresponding crystal core absorption. The demand for crystal cores of other systems will be huge. It might be very uncomfortable. I almost died and managed to hold on." With Xu Yi, a B-level healing psychic, here, this upgrade is purely dominated by him.
Lu Weiyi didn't ask any more questions, but handed over the purified crystal cores in his hand. There were so many of them, and in Xu Yi's eyes, they were all plant-type crystal cores. He stared with his eyes wide open.
Dean continued to absorb the crystal cores silently. After a while, he had absorbed all the crystal cores he had stored. Lu Weiyi replenished them for him and motioned for him to continue.
Their crystal cores were all in fixed quantities, with a fixed 100 in a pack. Seeing that Dean had already absorbed five packs and still showed no signs of upgrading, the people in the room couldn't help but become a little anxious.
Dean's condition didn't look good either. Sweat kept dripping from his forehead, his little golden curls were wet and stuck to his skin, and his face was pale and red as if dripping blood.
"What's going on?" Xu Sa pushed Xu Yi and asked with his mouth.
"Normal," Xu Yi said, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I have been here for more than half a year. At that time, there were a total of seventeen healing psychics in the entire Kyoto base. Eight of them were upgraded in half a year."
"There are only twelve healing departments in the entire base now, and only three of them are Class B."
Five people died...
And those five are all involved in the upgrade?
"Don't talk nonsense." Antonio was soaked like a drowned rat, with mud on his clothes from the fall. He pushed open the door and growled as he walked forward to hug Dean in his arms, kissing her sweaty forehead continuously.
"When upgrading the healing system, the number of crystal cores required is about 1.5 times that of upgrading other abilities. Many people cannot withstand the energy of so many crystal cores," Xu Yi ignored him and continued.
One and a half times the crystal core...
Normally, to upgrade from C-level to B-level, one needs about 400 to 600 crystal cores, so Dean might need closer to 700 or 800.
Lu Weiyi saw him absorb 500 crystal cores with difficulty. He opened the sixth package of crystal cores, but he could not overcome his body's instinct. It took him a long time to absorb the crystal core in his hand. The expression on his face became more and more painful.
"Dean, hold on, hold on, Dean," Antonio kept whispering.
"What will happen if you give up?" Antonio asked Xu Yi.
Xu Yi shook his head, "I only know that eight of them were upgraded, and those who survived were all B-level."
The other five were not fools, so there was no way they wouldn't give up.
Antonio didn't dare to bet on this possibility, so he could only hold Dean and talk to him over and over again.
After absorbing six hundred pills, Dean's eyes began to blur.
