She immediately thought that she wouldn't have to rush off to Shou'an later.
She only needs to consume a crystal core, obtain a 100-square-meter controlled area near Shouan or in the city, and then build a portal, and she can reach the battlefield in one second.
Thinking of this, she couldn't wait to try it out, but she saw a new function button in the upper left corner of the map - Absolute Control.
This is the third function unlocked by the system after reaching level 8. The name alone sounds amazing.
But Su Tao couldn't imagine how he could control the area under his control, because Taoyang currently not only monitored dangers, restricted the use of supernatural powers, automatic control of water and electricity, house permissions, blacklists, etc.
It is basically enough to satisfy her control and management of the area.
Curiosity prompted her to click in, and a guidance pop-up window popped up, asking her to select a controlled area.
Su Tao randomly selected Taoyang's main area, and then a prompt popped up that made her choke and snot bubbles:
[Host, are you sure you want to consume 20,000 crystal cores to exercise absolute control over this area for one day?]
Su Tao couldn't believe it and stared at the 0 on the screen and counted again and again.
It’s definitely 20,000! 20,000!
Help! It's a robbery!
She immediately turned off the system screen and calmed down.
I prepared myself mentally before opening it again, and then I heard the prompt sound again:
[After implementation, this area will be completely dominated by the host's consciousness, and all matters within the restricted area can be controlled. Please confirm.]
Su Tao immediately crossed it out, confirming that it was a fluffy ball.
Twenty thousand crystal cores. He could have just robbed her, but he gave her an extra function.
But after calming down for a while, she suddenly thought, such an outrageous consumption of crystal cores, could it be because the area she chose was too large?
After all, the prices of protective covers, greenhouses, sunrooms, etc. are calculated based on the area, and the absolute control should be the same.
Twenty thousand crystal cores really scared her. Her brain buzzed so much that she couldn't think anymore.
Are you kidding? She just got a huge sum of 8,000 crystal cores and was smug about getting out of poverty and becoming rich. Unexpectedly, a new function directly made her go back to the time before liberation and still be in debt. Who can accept this?
So in order to verify his guess, Su Tao searched hard for a crystal core, enlarged the location of the Shou'an base, and relied on his memory to get a piece of land at the gate of the core area where the warlords lived.
The system detected a new area and asked her to name it.
Su Tao was too lazy to think about it, so she just settled down and didn't even give it a name.
Then click on this area again to enable absolute control. Sure enough, the system prompt sounded a barely acceptable price:
[Host, are you sure you want to consume 100 crystal cores to exercise absolute control over this area for one day?]
100 pieces are not a lot for her now, but they are also quite expensive. This means that one crystal core is consumed per square meter per day.
If this happened before the coastal fleet, she would definitely curse and call it heartless and ignore this function.
[Opened, timed, 24:00:00]
Su Tao thought, after she tried it, if it wasn't worth the price, she would -
Just as she thought of this, she suddenly had a strange feeling, as if "she" was standing above the 100-square-meter land of the Shouan base.
There was no need for surveillance, nor did she need to open the system map. She could clearly "see" in her mind what was happening on this 100 square meters of land - a war was going on.
Shouan City was broken!
Su Tao's heart was pounding. Fortunately, Lei Xing and the others left the city as soon as possible!
And it seems that the attack did not come from outside, otherwise the surrounding bases would definitely have noticed the movement.
The fact that there is no news from outside proves that Shouan started from inside.
Like a bystander, she watched this piece of land and everything happening around it from a God's perspective. At the gate of the warlord's residential area, a mother and daughter covered in blood huddled together tremblingly. Beside them, there were dead bodies and body parts everywhere. Some of them were not even dead yet, dragging half of their bodies and struggling to death.
Without exception, all of these dead and wounded were cut in half, revealing their white spines.
At this time, a man with blood all over his face and extremely thin lower body slowly approached them.
The man's body proportions were extremely horrifying, as if the upper body of a healthy adult man was pressed on a pair of malnourished and skinny legs.
It was like a patient who had been paralyzed for many years and had muscle atrophy standing up and walking. It was very strange and incredible.
From the back, you can see a crack slowly opening up on his spine, with tentacles like mouthparts extending from it.
Su Tao's face changed when he "saw" something here. It was a mutated zombie!
This one has never appeared before! It must be the "allies" that the Siren has found!
This mutant zombie did not go forward and kill the mother and daughter immediately, but played with them before its prey died. In front of them, without even raising its eyelids, its mouthpart-like tentacles instantly cut off dozens of fleeing humans around it in half.
It's effortless, easier than swatting a mosquito.
This was the first time Su Tao directly felt the power of the mutated zombies.
They have absolutely powerful fighting power. Not to mention a dozen humans, even dozens of psychics would seem insignificant in front of them.
This cruel scene made the mother and daughter collapse to the ground, without even the courage to scream.
The mother protected her daughter and kept kowtowing: "Please, please, let us go."
The mutant zombie seemed to appreciate this scene very much and grinned:
"I just love seeing you, the military wives and rich girls, begging for mercy from me. Before, when I was in a wheelchair, would you even look at me? No, you even drove me around, spit on me, and kicked over my wheelchair. Now you're kneeling before me, begging for mercy, haha."
The mother's tears flowed down and she shook her head vigorously: "No, we don't have it."
The mutant zombie's face changed. "You are all the same kind of people! There is no good in the human race, especially women. They are self-righteous, selfish and cunning, and look down on people like us with physical defects. I swear, I will kill every woman I see. You, must die-"
It swung out the blood-red tentacles behind its spine and headed towards the mother and daughter.
The girl had fainted from fright, and her mother closed her eyes in despair.
However, just when he was about to touch them, he was suddenly hit back by a barrier.
The mutant zombie was stunned, looked at its own tentacles in disbelief, and then looked at the non-existent barrier.
What's going on?
It didn't believe it and swung out its tentacles again, but was still beaten back.
It widened its eyes, feeling something was wrong. It took two steps back, only to find that high walls suddenly appeared around it. Before it could react, it was trapped inside in darkness.
