Chapter 170 Professor Chi Mengyong
Lan Shiruo explained, "A domain refers to the entire area covered by superpowers. The superpower user is king, ruling over everything, and can crush all living and dead things within that area into slag. If he can cover a city within his superpower range, then the city's life or death depends on his thought. Unless someone's power is far stronger than him, no one can escape." She had seen the most powerful superpower user in the domain crush a large hospital with a single thought, reducing the corpses inside to minced meat. It was truly shocking. She wondered how much that person had grown to.
The little friends were stunned. Every time they listened to the stories told by the older sister, they felt like a frog in a well. This world is crazy, is there anything that is impossible?
The Cui family father and son were even more foolish. Were they dreaming? Could they have such an amazing ability? Why didn't they know about it before?
Lan Shiruo was also quite surprised, but after thinking it through, she was just happy. She had good vision and easily found a good partner. She would feel more at ease knowing that he would be with Lebao in the future.
"Okay, let's all rest. We have to get up early tomorrow." Lan Shiruo took the father and son and the eagle mastiff into another room, and then into the space, allowing the others to digest slowly.
The next morning, Lan Shiruo came out of the space and saw that everyone in the team was in high spirits and very excited. She shook her head and smiled.
The team now has twelve members, plus Xia Xun, Ding Yibing, and Kong Fenglin, making fifteen. Add five from the Ruan family, two from the Cui family, six from the Fang family, and the four middle-aged elders, and that's thirty-two. Add Niuniu and Lebao, for a total of thirty-four. And then there's the spirit creatures: Mastiff, Rat, Hawk, Toad Vine, Chameleon, and Spider Sister. If we count them all as one, the team has forty-one members.
A double-decker bus is barely enough for passengers, but not for sleeping at night.
Let’s solve this matter slowly, let’s set off first.
The remaining four leaders of City Y came here in person to deliver the weapons. They were also jealous of the weapons of the big team. If they could exchange so many for them without hesitation, there must be more. Can they grab them?
Forget it, they are all peace lovers and do not advocate fighting and killing, how rude.
The main team was heading towards Shicheng this time, intending to let the main team settle down first, while the two small teams would go out to find a suitable permanent residence and investigate the genocide tragedy that happened that year.
I have sent a message to Wei Xiong before. His people have died, so I don't plan to bother him with this matter anymore. I don't know who is behind this and how powerful he is. It would be bad if he implicated N City.
Wei Xiong expressed regret about this. Although he did not insist on helping, he also left a message asking him to let him know if there was anything in the future. They were still friends.
The big team didn't refuse.
The double-decker bus driving on the road is quite eye-catching. After all, few people would drive such a fuel-consuming big bus at that time.
The large group was at ease, completely oblivious to the outside world. They took the crystal cores they had exchanged in City Y and absorbed them based on their individual abilities, selecting those with special abilities. The bus was filled with an atmosphere of diligent study and daily progress.
When resting at night, there were too many people and it was not practical to park the RV, so the container came in handy.
Lan Shiruo got three people out and put them on a large bunk bed. Everyone took their own places to rest, and the bus was left to Lan Shiruo's family of three and the spirits, so that they could enter the space when no one was around.
When there were buildings, most people lived in them; reinforced concrete felt more reliable than iron. Where there were buildings, there were usually other people. A low profile was a principle that large teams always adhered to, even if it wasn't always well executed.
After walking for more than ten days, we encountered many rotten corpses and mutant creatures. Fortunately, they were not large-scale and were easy to deal with.
When we got off the highway and passed through a big city, we were greeted by a very strong smell of blood. Normally, we should have stayed away from it, but we didn't expect that there were so many people coming and going, in and out, it was very lively.
My friend stopped a small group, but before he could say anything, they showed their weapons. "What do you want?"
Lu Chaoyang smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, we just want to ask what's going on here."
The other party looked around the large group. There were old, weak, sick and disabled people. They couldn't be any worse. His attitude became much better. "Why are you here if you don't know what's going on here?"
"I was passing by and wanted to stay for the night, but I smelled a strong smell of blood and saw people coming in and out, so I asked out of curiosity."
Seeing that Lu Chaoyang didn't seem to be lying, the other party's attitude improved again. "Since you are just passing through, just live well. Don't even think about staying here. We just experienced a zombie tide a week ago. People in the city died or fled. Many places are occupied by rotting zombies. It's very dangerous."
It's dangerous, and you're still running here? Lu Huli didn't yell for nothing, "Really? Are you guys collecting the leftover supplies?"
The other party wanted to roll his eyes, but held back and said, "It's none of your business what happens, just get out of here." After saying that, he left quickly without caring about the whole team.
The friends touched their chins and thought, something was happening.
"Is there some treasure?"
"Maybe there are some rich supplies that they didn't have time to take away."
"It could also be a large monster causing trouble inside." This speculation was met with rolls of the eyes from the companions. If it was a large monster, would these people rush in so eagerly? And they were still being secretive, afraid that others would find out?
"He Lian, listen carefully to what they are saying." Lan Shiruo said.
"Okay." The crystal cores that He Lian absorbed were all low-level crystal cores with no attribute distinction. There were no high-level ones that matched her supernatural attributes. Although the crystal core level was not high, her supernatural ability had improved and she could hear things a hundred meters away. "All of them came here on a mission. This used to be a safe zone. After it was destroyed by the zombie tide, only a small number escaped. There used to be a medical laboratory here, which was led by a research team led by an old professor named Chi Mengyong. I heard that this old professor is very capable and has the latest research data and results. He is very likely to be the first to research the doomsday virus. He was not among those who escaped this time. Many other safe zone leaders have issued the same search mission to find and bring back the old professor and his team. The reward is very generous. These people are here for the reward and are afraid that we will have a share, so they don't tell us."
"Is it really Chi Mengyong?" Ding Yibing suddenly got excited and rubbed his hands together, as if he was about to meet the girl he liked.
The friend raised an eyebrow, "What? Know each other?"
"Yeah, yeah," Ding Yibing nodded repeatedly, "I know him, or not really. He's my idol. When I was a graduate student, he taught us a class. He's absolutely a national treasure-level medical research talent. I benefited a lot from that class. It's just that I never had the chance to meet him again. I regret that I couldn't say a word to him. I have a lot of questions I want to ask." He shook his head, and it was really regretful.
Lan Shiruo raised an eyebrow. She had heard of Chi Mengyong before his death after the apocalypse. Many people had spent a great deal of manpower and materials to hire him and his team, but it was well worth it. He was indeed a very capable person and team. Their research data and results were the most advanced in the world, completely different from the pseudo-research using children born on the day of the apocalypse as medicinal ingredients. If given the chance, he would definitely be the first to develop an antidote to the apocalyptic virus.
