Just when Shen Kexin's heart sank to the bottom, Qin Qing said to Zhou Shan calmly, "Take her to cook. Li Xiong, Cheng Chuan, go check if there's any damage to the electric fences on the surrounding walls. Wang Xiaobao, tidy up here. Don't disturb me before dinner."
After saying that, he walked directly into the only small room in the warehouse, locked the door, and only after hearing the sounds of people dispersing outside did Qin Qing slip into the space.
Qin Qing looked at the supplies in the space, pursed his lips, and frowned! This space had seemed to have a lot of supplies, but now it seemed too little! The supplies collected in this space could only keep these people half-full for a year or two at best. What about the future? Some supplies could simply not be produced anymore.
Although there are some animals and vegetables in the space, I'm afraid we won't be able to explain the origins of these fresh fruits, vegetables and meats when we take them out later?
Qin Qing scratched his forehead in annoyance. He only hoped to get more jade and crystal cores as soon as possible, so that he could expand the area of the space and try to collect and store more materials before the government department issued the task.
Although all four men in the team now possessed superpowers, judging from the previous fight, they were still too weak. She could see that Li Xiong and Zhou Shan were already losing strength after using their powers. If they had encountered ordinary zombies, they might have been able to hold their own, but if they had encountered mutant zombies, they would probably just be bitten.
Although she had trained her body before the apocalypse and her physical fitness was only slightly better than that of an ordinary person, she had fought zombies before by relying on the skills and ruthlessness she had learned from fighting zombies in her previous life.
In a real fight, if there were more than three zombies, she would probably struggle! She had been able to kill those dozen ordinary zombies before, basically because of the cheating of space.
You have to know that the early zombies were only strong and had a keen sense of smell, but not much else. Their reaction and speed were actually not as good as humans. It was just that their appearance was a little scary and ugly, so humans' fear took over, so they would panic and be bitten by zombies.
But mutated zombies are different. Not only do they have higher reaction and speed than humans, their bodies are also harder and they are extremely strong. Ordinary humans are no match for mutated zombies.
Although Zhao Chun was a person with superpowers in his previous life, she only knew that Zhao Chun developed a fever after being bitten by a zombie and then gained superpowers, and she didn't know how to enhance the superpowers.
Qin Qing couldn't help but think of this. She thought of the crystal core she had retrieved from the head of the mutant zombie she had killed in the jewelry store. She had accidentally dropped that crystal core into the space, making it much larger. Perhaps this crystal core could also enhance the mutant's abilities?
Qin Qing thought carefully and realized that Zhao Chunze always seemed to be the last one to leave after killing a zombie, under the pretext of covering the rear. Perhaps he had known about this matter of improving combat effectiveness for a long time, but had kept it a secret from her.
After figuring this out, she couldn't help but sneer, but the closer she thought about it, the more horrified she became, and sweat suddenly broke out on her forehead. If people with special abilities could use the crystal cores in the brains of mutant zombies to enhance their abilities, did that also mean that the mutant zombies would evolve accordingly?
If these mutated zombies continue to evolve, where will humans be able to survive in this world?
Just as I was daydreaming, Cheng Xinxin's voice came from outside.
"Sister Qin, it's time to eat!"
Cheng Xinxin looked at the large pot of braised potatoes and the large pot of boiled cabbage in front of her, and her mouth watered. Before the apocalypse, she hated vegetables so much, but only a few days had passed, and she actually missed these vegetables she had hated so much before.
Glancing sideways at Chen Kexin who was looking at her expectantly, Cheng Xinxin suppressed her saliva, turned her head away proudly, and tried not to look at the dishes.
When Qin Qing came out, she was stunned to see everyone standing. Then she gestured for everyone to sit down. When everyone saw her sit down, they sat down around the small table. Once the men sat down, they crowded around the small table.
"Qin Qing, I threw all those men far away. They were bleeding all the time, and I was afraid that if I threw them too close, they would attract zombies. But when I went out just now, I didn't seem to see the woman Zhou Shan threw out." Wang Xiaobao said while biting his chopsticks.
Qin Qing was silent for a moment, then nodded to indicate that he understood. Whether Fang Fang was dead or alive, it had nothing to do with him.
When Shen Kexin heard this, she wanted to bury her face under her shoulders to minimize her presence.
"Everyone knows the current situation. Although you all have special abilities, it is actually safer to rely on your own physical strength." After everyone finished their meal, Qin Qing waited for Shen Kexin to clear the dishes and go out before saying this to everyone.
Li Xiong nodded and said, "Yes, after I used all my supernatural powers just now, I felt exhausted all over, as if I had lost all my strength."
Zhou Shan also nodded, expressing a similar feeling to Li Xiong.
Wang Xiaobao originally thought that he was very cool to have superpowers, but he was stunned and asked, "Then this superpower is just useless?"
Qin Qing shook his head and said, "From what I know, the zombies outside are evolving. Just like you have developed superpowers, they will also evolve into mutant zombies. These zombies are much more agile and stronger than ordinary zombies. These zombies will produce a crystal core in their heads, which should enhance your superpowers. However, I can't guarantee that this will be the right thing to do, and it may be dangerous."
Qin Qing looked at everyone and calmly expressed her thoughts and concerns. In her previous life, she had never seen how Zhao Chunze absorbed the energy of the crystal core, so Qin Qing could not guarantee whether the psychic was like her, who only needed to hold the crystal core to absorb the energy inside.
Li Xiong's eyes widened as he said, "No matter if it's dangerous or not, let's give it a try. In any case, it's better than turning into a zombie."
Everyone agreed. Seeing everyone saying this, Qin Qing nodded and said, "The area around my warehouse is quite desolate, so there shouldn't be many zombies. You all should rest first, and we'll go into the city together tomorrow."
Cheng Chuan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Qin Qing, what about your classmate?"
Shen Kexin, who was hiding outside the door, held her breath when she heard this.
Qin Qing said without even raising her eyebrows, "What should we do? If she can't protect herself, does she still want us to protect her?" She is not a savior, nor is she Guanyin Bodhisattva. She has already given Shen Kexin a chance to live.
This is the end of the world. If she hasn't woken up yet, then she will have to endure the same fate as before, being pushed into a swarm of zombies and bitten to death.
