Now, in the third stage, I need to find a third superpower, otherwise I won't be able to improve.
Walking around the survivor base, I noticed a lot of changes. In just over twenty days, the number of survivors had reached fifty-one.
Most of them are young people, or at least middle-aged people, and each has one child; there are no elderly people among them.
Everyone had their own tasks to do: Zhou Guiping and a few others repaired and reinforced the wall, while Liu Kui and a few others managed and maintained the communication equipment.
Every now and then, Gu Lingchuan, Lin Yu, Lin An, and Bai Ling would lead a team out to search for supplies, and no one would pay attention to Gu Lingxiao.
When Gu Lingxiao wanted to go out, he would either go out with Gu Lingchuan or go out alone, and he found a lot of supplies.
Now in the third stage, Gu Lingxiao wants to try whether he can teleport with living creatures. He does what he thinks of, starting with fish, from one pound to more than ten pounds, the teleportation distance will be reduced.
Originally, he could teleport 500 meters by himself with his clothes and weapons, but when he was carrying a living creature weighing over 100 kilograms, he could only teleport 300 meters, making it only 200 meters.
The rapid regeneration ability is even faster now, with ample energy, and severed hands and feet can be fully restored in about ten minutes.
Just as Gu Lingxiao was about to go out to find a third superpower, Gu Lingchuan found him.
"Ling Xiao, we want to clear all the zombies out of the factory, and we need your help."
"when"
Gu Lingxiao asked.
We're all ready to see you.
"Then let's do it tomorrow."
Gu Lingchuan is almost at stage three, with a thousand zombie crystals, only a hundred or two short.
Lin Yu and Lin An have recently advanced to the second stage, and no new evolved beings have joined them.
More than fifty people, five evolved beings, that's a decent ratio.
The next morning, Gu Lingchuan gathered the five of them together. Bai Ling was no longer as reserved as before, and she crossed her legs and leaned back in her chair, looking quite lazy.
She twirled her blonde hair with her index finger, feeling quite bored without her phone.
Once all five had arrived, Gu Lingchuan said, "There are two to five mutated zombies inside, comparable to stage two. Their mutation direction is all—shape. The only certainties are speed and strength. The existence of the other two is uncertain, but we'll assume they exist, and we'll consider them as the most dangerous strength type."
"I'll mark the approximate locations. Can you handle Lingxiao and the others? The second phase is quite troublesome for us."
"Accurate location, resolved within three minutes." Gu Lingxiao didn't say much. In the second stage, strength and speed couldn't compare to his own. The combined effect of the two abilities on his physical attributes was comparable to that of a third-stage evolved being.
Even without using teleportation or his rapid regeneration ability, he is still a third-stage—fully enhanced ability user.
The Bai brothers, Ling and Yu, looked at Gu Lingxiao with surprise, as they had no idea of Gu Lingchuan's full strength.
Bai Ling only knew that Gu Lingxiao's superpower was regeneration, which was, of course, what she thought it was.
The Lin brothers only knew that Gu Lingxiao's special ability was teleportation, which Gu Lingchuan had mentioned when introducing Gu Lingxiao.
Gu Lingchuan was the only one who knew Gu Lingxiao's full strength.
"Is the third stage really that strong?" Lin An exclaimed.
"Could it be my cousin Qiang?" 26-year-old Bai Ling said, now referring to herself as her older cousin.
"Alright, we can discuss that later. Let's get back to the plan. Besides the second-stage mutated zombies, there are also fifty or sixty first-stage mutated zombies, mostly speed-type, with a small portion being strength-type. Add to that the thirty thousand ordinary zombies, and we can't deal with them in a day. The plan is to handle them within ten days, about three thousand a day."
"Before, the two of us could take down five or six hundred on average per day. At that time, Lingxiao hadn't entered stage three yet, but theoretically, entering stage three now shouldn't be a problem."
"Lin Yu, your main task is to monitor the movements of the zombies in the surrounding area. If the zombies in the city are alerted, you must inform us immediately and evacuate as soon as possible."
"As for Lin An and Bai Ling," Gu Lingchuan paused for a moment. There was nothing to do with their abilities. Their five senses were fully enhanced. To be honest, they might not be able to win against second-stage zombies at the moment. They would also have a hard time winning if surrounded by first-stage zombies. They might not even have a chance of survival if surrounded by a large number of ordinary zombies.
Lin An's superpower didn't improve significantly even in the second stage. Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult to bless others, but it was still possible to bless himself.
"Let's travel together as a group of three. If things get dangerous, I can take you all away from high altitudes."
As for ordinary people, Gu Lingchuan didn't even consider them. Firearms would only attract hordes of zombies, making it impossible for them to escape. They would only serve to draw fire when necessary and die.
"Don't use firearms at the beginning. Wait until one side is surrounded before firing on the other side. This will effectively attract the zombies."
"Still using those buildings as a base, pull them back and forth, and if necessary, Lingxiao, take them away." Gu Lingchuan knew that the third-stage teleportation could take people away.
Although it's only 200 meters long, it can be reused.
After finalizing some details, the five of them left.
Lin Yu left behind a first-stage evolved creature at the survivor base, a crocodile he had recently tamed.
He also took away a first-stage evolved eagle.
This eagle's evolutionary direction is towards the eye within its form, which is perfectly suited for detecting information.
Both were captured by Gu Lingxiao at Gu Lingchuan's request several days ago, when Lin Yu had not yet entered the second stage and was unable to subdue them.
It was only recently, when it reached the second stage, that it was subdued.
Some busy ordinary people watched the five people leave, feeling nothing but envy.
The five people arrived outside the factory.
Gu Lingchuan said, "Let's double-check that the walkie-talkie is working properly."
The five of them tried it themselves, and everything was normal.
Lin Yu stayed outside, slowly clearing out the ordinary zombies while checking the messages.
After Gu Lingxiao and Lin Yu investigated again and obtained the definite information, Gu Lingxiao raised his hand, pressed the watch on his left hand, and set it to timer mode.
He disappeared from everyone's sight the instant he pressed start. Bai Ling's eyes widened slowly. "Where is he?"
The Lin brothers looked at Bai Ling with confusion. "Of course he teleported away! What are you surprised about? Doesn't she know about Gu Lingxiao's superpower?"
Neither of them explained. Since Gu Lingxiao and Gu Lingchuan didn't say anything, they must have their own reasons, and there was no need to make a fuss.
Seeing that everyone seemed normal, Bai Ling felt a little embarrassed.
Gu Lingchuan explained, to avoid making her feel isolated, "Ling Xiao is a bit special. You'll definitely see many incredible things in the future, but don't ask too many questions. I'll tell you what I can after consulting with him."
In fact, Gu Lingxiao doesn't care if others know about his special abilities. In an emergency, he will definitely go all out and not hold back.
However, Gu Lingchuan felt that the fewer people knew about Gu Lingxiao's special qualities, the better. If too many people knew, some would definitely become curious and try to investigate, which would bring danger to Gu Lingxiao.
"Oh, oh," Bai Ling laughed happily. She had really felt isolated just now, and this explanation made her feel much better.
