Three days and three nights later——
(They will eat and bathe during the trip. They won’t starve to death, die of exhaustion, or have greasy hair. Don’t worry! Every little world has babies asking questions, so I emphasize this!)
Chen Yao and He Jingqian were woken up by the clanging sound of communication equipment.
He Jingqian got out of bed naked, picked up the bath towel thrown on the chair, quickly wrapped it around his waist, and then picked up the communication device.
Zhang Qi's steady voice came over the other end of the communication device: "Captain, the number of people awakening superpowers in our first district has been increasing over the past few days. At the same time, the number of people dying from fever has also been increasing."
He Jingqian frowned, his expression becoming serious. He said in a deep voice, "Okay, I understand. I'll have a meeting when I get there. Please help prepare the summarized data and the information collected from other regions in advance."
Zhang Qi: "Okay, Captain."
The call ended.
"hiss--"
Chen Yao hugged the quilt and sat up from the bed. She couldn't help but let out a sound due to the soreness and pain in her body. This gold-based ability was indeed a bit extreme, but she was so green and playful that she always let He Jingqian... cough cough... use the gold-based ability to transform any part of her body into metal, and then... cough cough...
They had just finished their three days and three nights of madness about an hour ago, and had barely closed their eyes for a moment when they were woken by the sound of the communication equipment. Furthermore, the consequence of playing too wildly was that her supernatural powers were almost exhausted, and now she felt empty. She probably felt the same way about He Jingqian's supernatural powers.
At this time, she should absorb some of the energy of the crystal core to allow the healing ability to take effect faster and relieve the discomfort.
He Jingqian walked over, half hugged her and let her lean on his chest, and said gently: "Yaoyao...how are you? Are you still tired? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
As he spoke, he took out a handful of crystal cores from a box on the bedside desk and placed them in her hand so that she could absorb them.
Chen Yao quickly absorbed all the crystal cores in her hand, and then bathed in the effect of the healing power to relieve the discomfort of her body, and the expression on her face gradually relaxed.
Speaking of which, one thing that is worth being happy about is that her current supernatural power has reached the fourth level, catching up with He Jingqian's fourth level.
The reason why she broke through the third level to reach the fourth level was inseparable from the supernatural powers she frequently used during these three days and three nights, ahem...
First it was water power, then thunder power, then wood power, healing power...
In short, with the cooperation of He Jingqian's gold power and thunder power, they opened up an indescribable wonderful new world, and she also gained an upgrade in her power, which was awesome.
He Jingqian was also absorbing the energy of the crystal core at this moment. He would take Chen Yao to the office area for a meeting later. Now they both needed to speed up their return to normal state.
After absorbing the energy of the crystal core, He Jingqian carefully helped Chen Yao pick out clothes to wear when going out, helped her put them on, and then took her to wash up.
After washing up, they tidied their clothes and went straight out to the office area in Area 1.
Along the way, Chen Yao carefully observed the situation at the base and found that many changes had indeed taken place.
First, the number of people standing guard decreased, probably because many of them had awakened special abilities and were in abnormal physical conditions.
In addition, there are more vehicles transporting corpses to the crematorium. You can see one every once in a while, which is much higher than before.
It seems that there are quite a few people who ultimately fail to survive the wave of superpower awakening, and the risks involved cannot be ignored.
He Jingqian held Chen Yao's hand and suddenly stopped. He pointed to a new building in the distance and said to her, "Yaoyao, follow the direction I'm pointing. There are rows of new buildings over there. It's the newly established District 6. Can you see it?"
Chen Yao looked up in the direction he mentioned and indeed saw the sixth district he mentioned, so she replied, "Yes, I can see it."
He Jingqian narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered, "District 6 has already had quite a few new members, but they haven't yet chosen a suitable general manager to manage it. In other words, they don't have an official captain yet."
Chen Yao looked at He Jingqian, already having a surprising guess in her mind. She pursed her lips and said, "You want me to give it a try?"
He Jingqian nodded and said, "That's right, but it also depends on your personal wishes. If you want to give it a try, this opportunity is quite rare. Of course, if you are not interested in this, then forget it."
After standing there and thinking for a while, Chen Yao finally made up her mind and said, "Okay, I'll give it a try."
He Jingqian agreed, "You've put in a lot of effort in the battle against the zombies, and you also have the ability to coordinate management and arrange the layout. Coupled with your six special abilities, these points, no matter which one you take, are very powerful."
Chen Yao smiled and said half-jokingly, "So, the captain now feels that he can no longer control me?"
He Jingqian rubbed her head affectionately and said softly, "Yaoyao, I don't want you to be confined to me, and I don't want you to have such a good record that you worked so hard to achieve, just brush it off and put it directly under the name of District 1 without even a sound.
I hope you can stand higher and shine brightly."
Chen Yao patted his hands and said sincerely, "Well said."
He Jingqian: "Because you are very good."
Chen Yao smiled and squeezed his palm, then quickly went over the simplest hierarchical structure of the base in her mind: team member - deputy captain - captain - chief captain.
Among them, the captain is the highest-level manager of the base, and there is only one at present, Captain Chen Zongchen.
In other words, if she wants to run for the captain of District 6, she must pass the test of Captain Chen.
She didn't really know this Captain Chen very well, so she asked He Jingqian as they walked: "What kind of personality and style does Captain Chen have?"
He Jingqian pondered, "From what he said, he's a serious person. He's decisive and resolute. He can't stand procrastination or half-measures. He doesn't like glib talk or opportunism."
Chen Yao nodded and continued to ask: "What kind of person does he like?"
He Jingqian thought for a moment, "He likes...people with real skills, clear minds and logical thinking, and high efficiency..."
