Chapter 71 Everyone was quite satisfied with their meal. ...
Once they recovered, they quickly jumped down and dug out the crystal cores of the zombies.
Finally, Zhang Jian set fire to the zombie's body and burned it, cleaning it up.
When the fire subsided, the ground was covered with a pile of colorful crystals that glittered in the sunlight.
“Strange, how come there are other colored crystal cores? I’ve never seen this before,” Zhang Jian said, picking up a pink crystal core.
"The zombies may have evolved," Liang You said.
Both the classification of ability user levels and the classification of zombie crystal cores were announced after the base was established, in order to allow them to better distinguish the abilities of zombies.
The speed of these zombies was beyond their imagination, a speed that ordinary zombies could not achieve. In the blink of an eye, they were right in front of them.
If Sheng Hui hadn't given them an early warning, they might not have had time to reinforce the surrounding area.
To be honest, they were quite surprised that Sheng Hui could sense the presence of these zombies.
"Can you sense the appearance of zombies?"
Sheng Hui nodded, and the others didn't find it strange at all; on the contrary, they were glad that Sheng Hui had such an ability.
If it weren't for this perception, I probably wouldn't have realized it until I was surrounded by zombies.
The car is totaled and unusable.
They don't have the space, and they can't absorb all these crystal cores; otherwise, their bodies would explode.
"Sheng Hui, do you have a spatial ability? Could you help us store the crystal cores?" Liang You asked Sheng Hui.
They were out on a special mission, and these crystal cores were extra; they could keep them all and didn't need to hand them over.
Even if that's not the case, the superpowered teams going out on missions will keep some of the crystal cores they hand in and divide them equally. Anyway, since no one tells anyone, who knows how many crystal cores they took?
These crystal nuclei, which belong to them, are all divided equally by default.
"Yes, yes, I'll give you a bigger share of mine."
"I can't let you help me for nothing, so I'll give you a bigger share of mine."
"No need to divide it up too much, we're not in the same team, are we?" Sheng Hui said with a smile.
The others were also a little embarrassed, especially Yuan Wu, who had been saved by Sheng Hui. If Sheng Hui hadn't pulled him out in time, he might not have survived if he had fallen into the zombie horde.
Liang You also said, "Thanks to your help, I will share some of my share with you. We assume that the person who puts in more effort should get more. Don't refuse. You are part of our team, and what is rightfully yours is yours."
Everyone was very enthusiastic and didn't give Sheng Hui a chance to refuse.
This rule is in place, and in the end, the light machine gun that Sheng Hui gave them was a great help. It was so satisfying to mow down the zombies.
They returned all the machine guns to Sheng Hui, who should have put them back into her own space.
"Don't be so polite, everyone here genuinely wants to give, so please accept it," Tao Min said.
“Alright, then I won’t stand on ceremony,” Sheng Hui nodded.
Everyone carefully collected the crystal cores, then distributed them, placing them in the pocket that Sheng Hui had taken out, and labeled them with their names.
Sheng Hui then put those things into her storage ring, and also put the supplies in there.
“With this space, things will be much easier for us,” Tao Min remarked.
"I didn't mean to hide it from everyone, it's just that my space is unreliable sometimes and sometimes, and I can't do anything about it myself."
Sheng Hui spoke with a mix of truth and falsehood, after all, her situation was indeed special, and it was estimated that there would be no other person like her in the world.
"Oh, can we still get our supplies out?"
"There's no problem with taking things out and putting them away. Sometimes some strange things appear in my space, like that gun. It only appears when there's danger, and I have to return it after using it. It might not appear again next time."
“Then your space is indeed very special,” Liang You said with a smile.
With superpowers and zombies already appearing, it wouldn't be surprising if other unusual things appeared as well.
Zhang Jian is a military enthusiast. When he touched the machine gun, he felt that it was more powerful than any other gun he knew. He was too excited at the time, and now when he thinks back, it seems that he didn't care about running out of ammo when he sprayed bullets at the zombies.
Their car broke down, so they had to walk.
"It's okay, there are so many cars on the roadside, we can just pick one and drive." Yuan Wu was very optimistic.
Liang You nodded, took the map, and led everyone on their way.
Big Black has turned back into a small black dog.
Yuan Wu looked at the big black dog and felt a little scared thinking about its enormous size.
Sheng Hui originally suggested that Da Hei grow bigger so they could ride it on their journey, but Da Hei was too fast and almost threw them off.
At that speed, a fall would be quite severe. You don't want to get injured by your own teammates instead of by zombies.
They rejected the idea before finding a solution.
After traveling for several days, we finally found a car that looked to be in good condition.
Not having a car key is not a problem for people with superpowers; those with metal-type superpowers can solve this problem.
If you squeeze in, there's still room.
They have cars that are faster than them.
They encountered zombies again, but not as many as the previous night. The small number of zombies made it easy for them to deal with them.
The relationship between everyone has improved a lot. Sheng Hui helps Tao Min cook and even takes out some things from her space to share with everyone.
"It's so delicious! I haven't had such fresh meat in ages," Yuan Wu exclaimed.
Even if there is meat, it will usually be made into cured meat first, otherwise it will spoil if we can't finish it. At most, it will be made into canned meat.
Everyone was quite satisfied with the meal.
How did you get this meat?
"I kept the mutated animals that Dahei caught because I thought they were edible."
Everyone looked at Big Black and laughed.
Although they were very familiar with each other, Dahei still didn't get close to them. If they were really annoyed by him, he would even bite them.
However, it won't bite unless you provoke it, which doesn't stop people from liking it.
After learning about everyone's experiences, Sheng Hui shared some of her own experiences as well.
Knowing that Sheng Hui used to be part of the superpowered squad, I wasn't surprised.
But when he heard that Sheng Hui had been bullied by that team, he immediately got angry and cursed those people on Sheng Hui's behalf, feeling that they didn't know what was good for them.
Sheng Hui just smiled and said, "It's all in the past. Actually, more than resenting them, I want to find my mom and dad now."
"It's okay, maybe we'll get lucky and run into your parents on the way," Tao Min said.
The others nodded in agreement.
Sheng Hui smiled and said, "Thank you."
Because of people like Yan Ji, she really finds it hard to trust others, but Sheng Hui will reciprocate when others are kind to her.
But they will definitely hold back some of their true strength.
She doesn't want to reveal all her secrets to others right now, as it makes her feel very insecure.
They drove to the university where the PhD student worked. The university was in a mess; the people in the labs were long gone, and even the equipment in the labs had been destroyed.
"Are you sure this is the place?" Sheng Hui asked.
“Yes, this is that professor’s laboratory.” Liang You nodded.
She asked them carefully and confirmed that they had found the right place.
Sheng Hui then put Dahei down and let it sniff around in the laboratory, not even sparing the outside.
Big Black circled the lab a few times, then suddenly barked at a spot.
"Back off!" Liang You stepped in front, using a wind blade to cut off the spot where the big black dog had been.
The metal wall was cut through, revealing a barely noticeable door.
The group exchanged glances. Liang You walked in front, while Yuan Wu brought up the rear. They tested the waters first before going inside.
Inside was another laboratory, which looked more complex than the one outside.
The contents inside are still well preserved.
"Who's there?" Hearing the noise, Liang You looked over.
A head slowly emerged from behind a piece of equipment. "Who are you?"
“We are a team of superhumans, and who are you?” Liang You asked.
Judging from the white lab coat the other person was wearing, they guessed that he was someone from the laboratory.
"I am a student at this school."
The other person said that when the zombies suddenly broke in, everyone else ran out, but she lagged behind and hid in the laboratory, not daring to go out.
"You've been hiding here for a long time? How did you survive?" Zhang Jian asked, puzzled.
"Go out and find something to eat; those zombies aren't always around."
The group exchanged glances, feeling something was off, but couldn't quite put their finger on why.
Seeing that they were about to leave, the female student chased after them again, saying, "Are you leaving? Take me with you."
Sheng Hui looked at the girl and also felt a little strange.
She sensed supernatural energy emanating from the girl, but the girl claimed to be an ordinary person, possibly a superhuman hiding her true abilities.
It was strange that Dahei was particularly well-behaved when facing that girl, lying in her arms and not daring to move at all.
Sheng Hui could sense that Dahei was trembling; it seemed to be afraid of the girl.
Big Black's superpowers are not weak; the fact that this female student can make it feel afraid suggests that she is no ordinary person.
Everyone looked at Liang You, waiting for her decision.
Liang You also looked at the girl, her brows furrowing slightly. For some reason, she felt uneasy.
"Do you know Professor Lin?" Liang You asked.
"Are you talking about Professor Lin Youtong? If so, I know her; she's my teacher."
"Really? Do you know what Professor Lin looks like?" Tao Min asked in surprise.
The girl took a photo out of her pocket. "This is a photo of me and my teacher."
Liang You and the others looked over and saw two people in the photo: the girl in front of them and Professor Lin.
Everyone was immediately pleasantly surprised, "It looks like we've got a pleasant surprise in store!"
Luckily we came to the school, so we can see what Professor Lin looks like.
"But where are we going to find Professor Lin now?"
Judging from what the girl said, she got separated from Professor Lin and doesn't know where he is now.
Liang You glanced at Da Hei, then looked at the girl named Su Xi in front of her, and tentatively asked, "Do you know where Professor Lin's home is?"
There's definitely more than one Professor Lin in the lab; the smells are too mixed, and Dahei might not be able to tell which one is Professor Lin. But it's a different story when you go to Professor Lin's house.
"Yes, Professor Lin lives in our school's faculty dormitory."
Su Xi led them there. Professor Lin's husband had passed away a long time ago, and they had no children. Currently, Professor Lin lived alone in the house.
Sheng Hui let Dahei go in and smell it, while Liang You asked Tao Min to bring out a few pieces of Professor Lin's usual clothes, hoping to find Professor Lin using this clue.
They got into the car, ready to set off to find Professor Lin.
Su Xi followed as well.
The car was fine for six people to squeeze in, but now that there's one more person, it's unusable.
Liang You and Sheng Hui exchanged a glance, but neither of them spoke.
But at this moment, they all tacitly had the same thought: that this person named Su Xi was definitely not just hiding his strength.
It's best to keep an eye on people like that.
Just as they were struggling with how to set off, Su Xi reminded them.
"Well, our school does have a minibus, which should still be usable."
Su Xi led them to the school's minibus.
She explained, "Sometimes when we go to activities with our teachers, we ride in these kinds of vehicles. You can drive, right?"
"They're all cars, what's there to not know how to drive?"
The keys were still in the car, so they didn't even need to use their special abilities.
After driving for a while, stop and let Dahei smell the aroma. If that doesn't work, give Dahei some of Professor Lin's things to smell.
Sheng Hui sat next to Su Xi. She felt that the silk wrapped around her wrist was very tight, making her wrist hurt a little.
"Your bracelet is so unique." Su Xi reached out to touch it, but Sheng Hui avoided her.
Sheng Hui smiled and said, "Sorry, I'm not used to people touching my things."
"Sorry, I don't know." Su Xi stuck out her tongue, looking quite playful.
Xiang Bei looked at System 9639, "What's the situation with this Su Xi in the book?"
Liang You and his team also appeared in the book. They were a trustworthy team, but their fate was tragic. In the end, all of them died in the zombie horde.
According to the fact that the small world automatically corrects the plot, being surrounded by zombies before should correspond to the part in their book where they died in a zombie horde.
If they survive this, who knows what the future holds? If a zombie horde were to break out, it would be incredibly difficult to deal with. Even now that they've survived, they don't know what will happen next, because their fates will change along with their lives.
The small world might suddenly change the plot, and in order to kill them, a group of extremely fast zombies would even appear.
"Host, the character Su Xi has never appeared in the book," the system said after searching through all the plot details.
Characters who have never appeared before are even more troublesome, because we don't know what kind of changes this mysterious figure will bring.
As things stand, Su Xi seems to be in no danger. But the fear is that she might suddenly reveal something dangerous.
But we also need to find out who this person is as soon as possible.
Xiang Bei told Sheng Hui about her suspicions.
Be careful, this person is not simple.
Looking at the words that appeared in front of her, Sheng Hui touched her wrist.
Xiang Bei didn't know Su Xi's background, but whenever Su Xi got close to her, she would subconsciously become wary.
Even Dahei and Sisi were afraid of her, which made her feel that Su Xi was a dangerous person.
Sheng Hui turned her head and glanced at Su Xi, who was still giving her an innocent smile.
