The bottle that Hua Mi took out was supposedly an "Energy Drop" brought from the Xiangcheng base, and it was in a brand new disposable water bottle.
The water bottles had no markings on them, which is consistent with the style of the Xiangcheng base.
Upon unscrewing the cap, Wang Dexuan discovered that the bottle of "Energy Water Drops" given to him by Hua Mi had a refreshing and invigorating scent.
It's as if just smelling this aroma can dispel the oppressive heat and restlessness in your heart.
The [Energy Drops] that Chen Hu sells have a faint fishy smell that makes people feel violent and want to fight as soon as they smell it.
Wang Dexuan frowned and hid to the side with Hua Mi, trying a sip of the [Energy Drop] that Hua Mi had given him.
You don't know until you taste it; once you do, Wang Dexuan immediately discerned the difference between the genuine "Energy Drops" and the counterfeit.
Wang Dexuan closed his eyes tightly and reached out to hug the bottle of [Energy Drops] in his hand.
His eyes were a little moist, and he couldn't help but ask Hua Mi, "How many genuine [Energy Drops] do you have left? I'll buy them with crystal cores."
Fearing that Hua Mi might not sell, Wang Dexuan said, "In F City, they want 100 crystal cores per bottle of pirated [Energy Drop]. Sell me your genuine energy crystals, and I'll buy yours for 500 crystal cores per bottle."
Hua Mi smiled and shook her head, "No need for so many, just give me 200 crystal cores."
She thought about Wang Dexuan and realized he wasn't all that bad. At least before the mutated beast tide went berserk, Wang Dexuan had knocked on her RV door and told her to hide in the settlement.
Based on this alone, Hua Mi was willing to do business with someone like Wang Dexuan.
Wang Dexuan immediately nodded. 200 crystal cores were not a lot for a superhuman.
He hurriedly took out a plastic bag full of crystal cores and stuffed it into Hua Mi's hand. "Look how many energy crystal cores are here? And how many bottles of [Energy Drops] do you have? Sell me all the [Energy Drops] you can. If you don't have enough crystal cores, I'll go and get more."
Hua Mi smiled and weighed the large bag of crystal cores in her hand. "If you want to buy all my [Energy Drops], this amount of crystal cores is probably not enough."
These words delighted Wang Dexuan, as it seemed that Hua Mi's genuine [Energy Drops] would be plentiful.
But before he could say anything, a group of superhuman henchmen who had just come out of prison approached.
They looked Hua Mi up and down without any politeness. "We told you to come over, why didn't you come over?"
Hua Mi shrugged. "I don't want to go. If you need something from me, just come over. If I don't need anything from you, why should I go over there? Why should I fawn over you like a lapdog?"
The henchman captain sneered, "Do you know our rules here? Those who are out of touch with reality and refuse to join Commander Chen's recruitment will not be able to buy any [Energy Drops] at the gathering place outside the prison."
Hua Mi nodded with a smile, "I understand. Don't worry, I'm just passing through and will be leaving soon."
The henchman captain looked Hua Mi up and down, but ultimately said nothing more, and led a team of superhumans to another place to fight mutated monsters.
Because the mutant monsters have become more powerful, all the superhumans in the settlement have come out to fight them.
Amidst the mutated beast horde, Chen Hu's henchmen stood outside the settlement, hawking boxes of zombie crystal core water.
Wang Dexuan hid to the side and drank a few sips of the bottle of [Energy Drops] that Hua Mi had given him. He felt a surge of energy, and soon his pores opened up, and he felt full of power.
At that moment, his teammate behind him raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, "Captain Wang, what are you doing?"
Wang Dexuan turned around and subconsciously raised his hand to push his teammate behind him.
He pushed his teammate more than ten meters away.
Everyone around looked at Wang Dexuan.
The teammate who had been pushed more than ten meters away landed on the ground. He got up and looked at Wang Dexuan in shock.
Wang Dexuan looked down at his palm and suddenly realized, damn it, his superpower that hadn't leveled up in a long time had actually leveled up.
A teammate next to him asked cautiously, "Captain Wang, your strength ability has increased a lot."
In the past, if Wang Dexuan wanted to push someone, he could only push them a meter or two at most.
Now, to have pushed someone more than ten meters away in one go, this is already considered a mid-to-high level ability user in the settlement.
Chen Hu's henchmen then turned their attention to Wang Dexuan. One of them pointed at Wang Dexuan and ordered the people around him, "Call him over and put him in jail."
The henchman walked up to Wang Dexuan, nodded to him, and said in a condescending manner, "You've passed the test. You can come back to the prison with us today."
Wang Dexuan frowned and hid the remaining half-full bottle of [Energy Drops] behind his back.
His gaze searched for Hua Mi's figure, only to see that Hua Mi had already boarded the RV.
The RV slowly started moving, as if it were about to leave.
So Wang Dexuan stopped wasting words with the people who had just come out of prison. He quickly waved to his good brothers and prepared to follow the RV.
Chen Hu's henchman frowned, looking at Wang Dexuan's absent-minded expression. So the henchman captain warned Wang Dexuan, "You and I entered this settlement together. Now that you've finally made it big and have the qualifications to go to prison, think about whether you want to cherish this opportunity."
Wang Dexuan was startled. He forced a smile at the henchman captain, wanting to tell him directly that the reason his superpower was enhanced was because he drank the genuine [Energy Drop].
If all these "energy droplets" in F City are pirated, then blindly pursuing these pirated items is pointless.
After all, Wang Dexuan was all alone, with no wife or children to take care of. The small team he led consisted of mostly misfits, whose wives and children had all left them in the apocalypse for various reasons.
There is no truth to the claim that Wang Dexuan and his team would risk their lives for Chen Hu in order to send their wives, children, and parents to prison for a safer life.
Therefore, based on this premise, Wang Dexuan raised his hand to stop the henchman captain's incessant chatter, "I have some things to do, I have to go first."
After saying that, he waved to his teammates behind him, and one of them, along with a group of people, chased after the RV.
When Chen Hu's henchmen saw that Wang Dexuan had actually run away, they were shocked.
He felt a pang of discomfort and turned to the other ability users behind him, saying, "You've all seen it. Wang Dexuan refuses to be on our side. From now on, don't sell him any more [Energy Drops] in the settlement."
