Chapter 65 doesn't mean she can't do it in the future. ...
These discoveries put Sheng Hui at ease.
Only when she is strong enough can she protect the people she wants to protect.
She couldn't rely on Beibei for help forever; Beibei was kind, and she couldn't take advantage of her. Sheng Hui urged herself every day to improve a little more, even just a tiny bit, because at least she was making progress.
After spending some time on the mountain, Sheng Hui was able to sense places with supernatural energy fluctuations within a ten-kilometer radius.
However, with her current abilities, she can only control mutated plants and animals within a radius of one kilometer, and only low-level mutated plants and animals.
If she uses her powers too much, she will experience bouts of dizziness.
During this time, Sheng Hui had been testing the limits of her abilities. Here, everyone was on her side, so she could use her powers without restraint. But once she left, she couldn't do that anymore. If she overexerted herself and experienced dizziness, she would be in great danger whether she encountered zombies or other people with superpowers.
Sheng Hui would never put herself in such a dangerous situation.
Since leaving Yan Ji's team, Sheng Hui's health has recovered very well, and she has even gained some weight. Sometimes when she takes a look in the mirror, she feels a little dazed.
She seemed to have seen her own appearance before the apocalypse, her brows brimming with vitality.
Instead of looking haggard, with lifeless eyes, and having to act as a blood bag for Yan Ji and the others.
Sheng Hui cheered herself up in front of the mirror and patted Xiao Hei's head. Xiao Hei's superpowers had improved recently.
While his body has shrunk, Xiao Hei's appetite is anything but small.
Sisi doesn't need to eat, but she still needs nutrients. Shenghui will share some of the crystal cores she has saved with Sisi. Not too many, just one a day is enough.
There were no zombies nearby, but there were some within a ten-kilometer radius. It was unclear whether there were any superhumans, since besides her, Xiang Bei was the only other person there.
However, Sheng Hui still felt that Xiang Bei's superpower was more powerful. Even though Xiang Bei was right next to her, she didn't even notice Xiang Bei's presence.
She didn't pry too much. Everyone has their own secrets, and she didn't need to dig too deep. If she did, it would be like repaying kindness with enmity.
Besides the mutated plants and animals in the vicinity, Sheng Hui would also go out at night with Da Hei to find wandering zombies. Da Hei was very fast, and Sheng Hui initially chose zombies that were alone. Without engaging in close combat, she tried to control the zombies' movements.
Beibei said that if she can control mutated plants and animals, she can control people with superpowers, so maybe she can control zombies too.
How to do it is something that Sheng Hui needs to figure out on her own.
Controlling low-level zombies is easy; she can control zombies in the same way she controls Big Black and Sisi.
One or two mid-level zombies are fine, but too many are not good. They will struggle and resist. When it becomes uncontrollable, Sheng Hui can only make them self-destruct and take their crystal cores.
Based on current calculations, Sheng Hui can control more than a dozen low-level zombies at a time.
Sheng Hui and Xiang Bei had seriously discussed whether it was possible to make low-level zombies suddenly increase in strength. They felt that zombies were not easy to control, and it would be bad if they suddenly became uncontrollable and hurt people.
Let's wait until she's stronger enough to control the situation before discussing these things. Since learning she had superpowers, Sheng Hui actually felt much more relaxed.
Especially after she tried to use her special abilities to manipulate those mutated plants and animals, Sheng Hui was able to master the ability to absorb the energy of the crystal core.
Although she couldn't detect any changes in the crystal core within her body, and this wasn't the only strange thing about her, Sheng Hui had plenty of time to investigate.
In any case, the current situation is a good thing for Sheng Hui.
She didn't plan to stay there any longer. She took Dahei and Sisi up the mountain to find some crystal cores, caught some mutated animals, processed them, and then put them into her storage ring before preparing to leave.
Sheng Hui plans to go to the nearby base to look for her parents. If she runs into someone she knows, she might be able to find out about them.
Staying here isn't a solution.
Dahei regained its enormous size, and this time Sheng Hui knew to tie a rope between herself and Dahei, otherwise she would have fallen off Dahei sooner or later.
But I didn't expect Big Black to run so fast. I underestimated Big Black.
Even at Sheng Hui's request, the speed was slowed down. Even so, the rope was almost torn by Sheng Hui, but in the end, it still managed to wrap Sheng Hui around Da Hei's body.
Sheng Hui needed to wear her mother's sun mask and her father's sunglasses to sit still and see her surroundings clearly.
She regretted not bringing her electric scooter helmet from home.
After realizing her superpower, her body also changed; she became much stronger and had a larger appetite.
She felt that one chicken leg wasn't enough for such a big pheasant.
Fortunately, Dahei and Sisi were there, and Shenghui even worked with them to create a mutated wild boar.
That wild boar was almost as big as the original form of the giant black boar. If she were alone, she would probably have a hard time dealing with it.
At the time, she was responsible for controlling the wild boar's attack power. These large creatures were not easy to control, but slowing them down was not a problem.
The silk threads wrapped around the wild boar, immobilizing it, while Big Black was responsible for biting the boar until it suffocated.
Sheng Hui had heard people say that wild boar meat didn't taste good before, but she never expected that the mutated wild boar meat would taste so delicious.
Or perhaps the situation is different now, and I'm not picky about food anymore.
There are also some mutated wild fruits on the mountain; after the mutation, the fruits have swelled up a lot.
The taste also changes slightly; the sweet fruits are extremely sweet, and the sour fruits are extremely sour.
Sheng Hui took a bite of the sour fruit and felt her teeth go numb from the sourness. For several days in a row, her teeth felt soft when she ate.
Fortunately, Sisi is a mutated plant. With her help, Sheng Hui no longer needs to look for those sour fruits. Whether they are naturally sour or unripe, Sheng Hui ignores them all.
Take some; if you don't eat it yourself, you can save it for someone you don't like.
Xiang Bei felt that Sheng Hui couldn't keep avoiding people forever.
Sheng Hui thought it made sense. For some reason, the thought that someone she didn't like would eat this sour fruit gave her a strange sense of excitement.
The mutated plants seem to have forgotten about the seasons; upon closer inspection, there are many things to discover.
The wild raspberries were as big as Sheng Hui's fist. She picked quite a few; they were sweet and sour, and tasted especially good.
There are also mushrooms in the mountains; the mutated mushrooms grow to enormous sizes, some even taller than her.
Under Xiang Bei's direction, Sheng Hui put on a mask and prepared several edible mushrooms. Since mushrooms contain spores, she was very careful while handling them, afraid of inhaling them.
She also got some poisonous mushrooms. If anyone tried to harm her, Sheng Hui would stuff the poisonous mushrooms into their mouths.
Or you could turn it into poisonous mushroom powder and throw it directly at the opponent.
Sheng Hui felt a little embarrassed because she always ate Xiang Bei's food, so this time she found a lot of things and gave most of them to Xiang Bei.
"No need, you keep it for yourself. I've collected plenty of supplies, enough for me to eat. Don't worry about me."
As for water, she found the mutated Japanese knotweed and the flat vine.
Actually, it was Beibei who told her; Shenghui didn't recognize anything like the wilderness.
These can all provide a water source, and as long as they are placed in the space, there is no need to worry about the water deteriorating.
Sheng Hui was almost ready. Looking around, there was no one there. She rode Big Black at full speed, using her superpower to sense the surroundings. If it wasn't a large horde of zombies, Sheng Hui would have Big Black go to meet them.
She could easily face a dozen or so zombies head-on, and each experience only helped her improve.
She also held the dagger in her hand, so she could use it in case of any unexpected situation.
This wasn't Sheng Hui's first time facing zombies, and these were all low-level zombies.
Besides training myself, I also let Dahei and Sisi train together, often working together to improve our teamwork.
Sheng Hui was in charge of controlling the zombies' movements, while Da Hei and Si Si worked together to dig out the zombies' crystal cores.
Once the crystal core is gone, the zombie loses its ability to move.
[You can try it and see if you can use your superpower to blow the heads off these zombies.]
Sheng Hui tried, but couldn't get a headshot; currently, she could only sever the zombie's hand or leg.
[You've made great progress; you will succeed.]
Encouraged by Xiang Bei, Sheng Hui shamelessly agreed. Just because she can't do it now doesn't mean she can't do it in the future.
After giving one crystal core to Dahei and Sisi, he also absorbed one himself before putting away the rest.
Before leaving, they burned the zombies on the ground.
This kind of situation is usually handled by fire-type ability users, since they have the ability to control fire, making it easier for them to deal with it.
Sheng Hui had Si Si pile the zombies together, then found some dry firewood, lit it with a lighter, and threw it at the zombies.
I borrowed some water from Xiang Bei, washed Dahei's mouth, and rinsed Sisi before taking them away.
Tell Dahei to walk slowly. If there are zombies, Sheng Hui will only go over if the situation is clear.
She didn't want to encounter humans; at this time, she would mostly meet people with superpowers. Ordinary people couldn't possibly roam around outside.
Sheng Hui knew that she was going to the base to find her parents, and it was impossible for her to not see them. She had already thought of a story.
Others may not be able to tell that she has special abilities, but the fact that Big Black is a mutated Groanda sheepdog is probably impossible to hide.
If the silk threads were hidden on her body, she could cover them up and get away with it.
Although she now possesses superpowers, she feels that her abilities are still average, and Sheng Hui does not want to reveal her strength too early.
Before she can fully control her abilities, she will naturally hide them as much as possible, and Sisi can also be used as a trump card.
It's going to be tough on Dahei.
To deal with the zombies, Sheng Hui told Dahei to slow down even more, to take a leisurely stroll, and to direct Dahei to wherever there were supernatural energy fluctuations.
At night, we would find rooms that were not occupied to rest.
After Dahei mutated, its sense of smell became even more acute, and it could detect whether there were people or zombies.
Sisi is a mutated plant; it can't hide anything from the surrounding area.
Sheng Hui uses her special ability to investigate the situation within a ten-kilometer radius. If there are no unusual fluctuations, it means that it is safe.
Along the way, there were zombies and mutated plants that Sheng Hui encountered, as well as zombies that Sheng Hui actively sought out.
Dahei and Sisi's abilities improved particularly noticeably; sometimes, even while they were fighting, their abilities would suddenly increase.
Sheng Hui divided the found crystal cores into three parts. While absorbing the crystal cores, they also enhanced their own superpowers.
Sheng Hui was very envious. Why couldn't her superpower improve like that?
This thought only lasted for a moment; she felt that relying on her own strength to improve was not very stable.
Just like Yan Ji, once she exceeds a certain range, Yan Ji's superpower becomes useless.
It's best to improve your abilities through your own efforts; it's more solid. No matter how strong Dahei and Sisi are, Shenghui will urge them to solidify their foundation.
When Sheng Hui was about to rest that evening, she noticed something was wrong.
She used her supernatural abilities to investigate and discovered movement underground.
Now, a swarm of mutated ants is attacking her.
These ants hadn't even been detected a moment ago, but in just a short while, they had crawled directly under the floorboards. Their speed astonished Sheng Hui.
Sheng Hui quickly got up, hugged the shrunken Big Black, and backed away.
The floorboards where she had just been sitting suddenly cracked open, and a swarm of ants crawled out from the ground.
These ants were about the size of an adult's fist, with very sharp mouths. A group of ants piled up almost filled the entire room.
Each ant has red eyes, which looks somewhat eerie.
Big Black bared its teeth at the ants in Sheng Hui's arms, while even Si Si seemed a little restless.
Sheng Hui held down Da Hei and looked at the swarm of ants.
She wasn't thinking about the danger, but rather how many crystal nuclei there must be from so many ants.
The two sides faced off. Sheng Hui did not move, holding Da Hei with her hands clasped together, groping for the storage ring on her hand.
She could sense the strength of the ants within her control, but there were too many of them to control them all.
But looking at this army of ants, Sheng Hui felt a little eager to try it out.
Don't be afraid, control as many as you can, let them kill each other.
The ants piled up higher and higher, until they reached the ceiling. The ant at the very top looked down at Sheng Hui.
As if given a command, a swarm of ants sprang into action, densely surrounding Sheng Hui.
"Settle!" Sheng Hui suddenly said.
The ant that was about to crawl over suddenly stopped in its tracks.
She froze the ants at the top, but the ants at the bottom kept crawling upwards.
Sheng Hui was not happy about this. She tried to control the frozen ants and make them fight each other.
Then, taking advantage of the opportunity, he lit the dry wood he had taken out of the space with a lighter and threw it into the place where the ants were crawling out.
The fire grew larger and larger, causing the ants to explode with crackling sounds. Some of the mutated ants, controlled by Sheng Hui, had no way to escape and could only fight their companions.
After the fire burned the ants, Sheng Hui had Sisi throw out water to extinguish the fire. The ground was covered with shiny crystal cores. Sisi instantly unfurled her leaves, rolling up a crystal core in one go, and piled them all in front of Sheng Hui. She even came over and coiled them around Sheng Hui's wrist to curry favor.
Sheng Hui touched the delicate leaves and praised them.
Then he collected all the ant cores into his spatial ring and had Big Black lead them away quickly.
She could no longer linger here. She sensed that someone was approaching; it was a group of superhumans, probably a small team.
Just after Sheng Hui ran away with Da Hei, a large truck stopped where she had just been.
After a group of people came down, they went inside to check and found out, "We're too late. The mutated ants have been wiped out."
The fire-type ability user glanced at the ants burned to ashes and frowned, saying, "Strange, this is just ordinary fire. Didn't the other side have any fire-type ability users?"
The fire element of a fire-type ability user is still recognizable.
They didn't think one person could defeat this army of ants.
Unexpectedly, the other party burned these mutated ants with ordinary fire, and there were no signs of supernatural power being used around them, nor any signs of fighting.
"There are no traces here. It's not like these mutated ants started a fire and burned themselves to death, is it?"
"Is there any trace of the superpowered team?" the leading woman asked.
"No."
Everyone was surprised by this answer.
Their squad is different from other squads; they prefer to operate at night because zombies and mutated plants and animals are more active at night, allowing them to obtain more crystal cores, which they need.
They had originally detected a mutated ant colony here, but they were too late; the ant colony had been wiped out by someone else first.
"Where is the crystal core?"
"No, there's nothing at all."
"That means someone took the crystal core before us," the leader said.
If a mutated ant destroys itself, the crystal nucleus will not disappear.
Someone has already taken the crystal core and cleaned up the traces at the scene.
The others in the team agreed, but the thought of losing so many crystal cores made them curse.
"It's all about skill; we were just a step too late." The woman in the lead didn't seem to care.
Fighting these mutated creatures is all about skill. If the other side dared to steal the crystal cores they had captured, she would definitely be unhappy. However, the other side only dealt with the mutated ants first, which only made her side move faster next time, so as not to be overtaken again.
"Let's go and look in other places."
Although everyone was upset that someone else had gotten there first, they had no choice but to look elsewhere.
Sheng Hui directed the direction for Dahei to run, and in no time it had run far away.
You can even see some light.
They had actually reached the base she was looking for.
It's within ten kilometers.
Sheng Hui didn't dare to casually investigate the situation inside. The base was protected, and there were also superhumans patrolling and investigating. It wouldn't be good if she alerted those superhumans.
She wasn't confident she could escape unscathed in front of so many superhumans.
