Feeling that her words were extremely irresponsible, Li Xue said, "If everyone decides to stay and dig for the crystal core, I have a way."

"What method?" Everyone's eyes lit up. Captain Li's ideas along the way were very useful. If it weren't for her help, he would not be able to kill all the zombies even if he spent twice as much time.

"There are too many zombies, and most of them have their heads chopped off. If we use the old method to dig, it's hard to say when we can dig them all. Just searching through the pile of corpses is enough for everyone." After Li Xue said this, everyone nodded. This is indeed the biggest problem.

"So, we can use fire. Burn all these corpses, the crystal cores are not afraid of fire. In this way, not only can we save our energy, but also the corpses of these zombies can be properly handled. If those corpses are left here for a long time, I am afraid that they will cause a large-scale epidemic after decay." So many zombies will cause immeasurable trouble to humans after decay. Another advantage of doing this is that the corpses of the zombies will be burned to ashes, and no one will notice that so many crystal cores are missing.

"What Captain Li said is that no matter what the reason is, burning with fire is the most correct approach." Captain Qian thought about Li Xue's words carefully and nodded in agreement. "If we use fire, things won't be so troublesome. Does anyone have any opinions?"

Everyone looked at each other, and naturally no one had any opinions. Captain Ding saw that everyone agreed, so he had to agree. After all, it was impossible for their Cheetah Team to go back to the base alone. Besides, they had contributed a lot to killing these zombies, and they were about to get the benefits. He would be stupid to push the benefits away.

"Since everyone agrees, let's not delay. Let's find the fire-type esper in the team and let them ignite those corpses." Captain Qian immediately arranged.

Several captains who had fire-type esper in their teams, including Li Xue, went back to arrange the fire-type esper in their teams.

Soon, the fire-type psychics gathered together. Under the leadership of Captain Qian, they all used their powers to gather their fireballs together to form a huge fireball and threw it at the zombies.

In order to burn the corpses quickly, the fire-type psychics threw fireballs in many places, and the opposite side of the broken bridge was suddenly ablaze. The corpses burned quickly when they met the fire, and the fire quickly spread around. The air was filled with a nauseating burnt smell. Soon

, all the corpses were engulfed in the fire, and the flames shot up to the sky. The heat wave hit, and the convoy on the broken bridge had to temporarily retreat a long way.

The fire continued to burn until the next morning. Thick smoke billowed against the flames, like hell.

After the fire was extinguished, Captain Qian led all the psychics to clean up the battlefield. After

the bodies were burned, a thick layer of ashes was left on the ground. Some bones that were not burned were still emitting light smoke.

"It's not easy to find the crystal core in such a thick layer of ashes." Captain Qian looked at the ashes that were almost up to his knees and was a little worried.

At this time, a gust of wind blew over, and the ashes on the ground were lifted up and blew all over the sky. Everyone quickly covered their faces and stood there waiting for the wind to stop.

Soon, the wind stopped, but the ashes flying all over the sky were not so easy to stop. The whole W city seemed to be shrouded in the gray ashes.

After a long time, the ashes slowly fell down.

"Pah, what should we do? These ashes are too disgusting. Should we just use our hands to stir them in the ashes?" Captain Ding blew away the ashes that were stuck to his mouth, feeling a little embarrassed.

"How about letting a water-based psychic use water to press these ashes down and try?" Captain Zhou shook his head. These ashes were scattered everywhere, which really made people feel uncomfortable.

"But if we use water, won't these ashes become mud?" Another captain couldn't help but speak.

"Compared to having ashes constantly drilling into my nose and eyes, I think ashes slurry is easier to accept." Captain Zhou always felt that the ashes were drilling into his throat.

Captain Qian couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Let the water-based esper try, it would be best if they could flush all the ashes away." Then he summoned all the water-based esper and asked them to use their powers to try to flush the ashes away.

But there were only two water-based esper who came to W City this time, and their levels were not high. Facing the ashes covering an area of ​​several miles, the two of them were willing but unable to do anything. A water ball hit the thick ashes, and the ashes turned into muddy black, and then slowly sank, revealing some burnt bones.

"This... are we really going to dig it out?" Everyone hesitated. It was so disgusting that they couldn't do it.

Li Xue thought about it and stood up: "How about this, I'll make some small ice platforms to hold up the ashes, and then you two control your supernatural powers to turn the water ball into rain, and see if you can wash away the ashes." As

she said, Li Xue waved her hand, and an ice platform with a diameter of about 50 meters emerged from the ground, and the thick ashes on the ice platform kept pouring down.

Seeing this, the two water-based psychics activated their powers, and it was as if a heavy rain had fallen on the ice platform. The sewage mixed with ashes slid down from the ice platform. The crystal cores contained in the ashes gradually emerged. Soon, the ashes on the ice platform were almost washed away, and the crystal cores and some bone residues were clearly placed on the ice platform.

This method works! Everyone looked at the densely packed crystal cores on the ice platform, and the light in their eyes could not even be suppressed by such scorching sunlight.

After all the psychics jumped onto the ice platform to pick up the crystal cores, Li Xue and the two water-based psychics went to make another ice platform.

In this way, they worked for two days before they were able to collect the crystal cores. The ecstasy they had felt when they first saw the huge amount of crystal cores had turned into numbness.

All the crystal cores were piled up into several small hills.

According to the practice of previous missions, all the crystal cores or other materials produced outside the plan belonged to the psychics themselves, and the base had no right to collect them.

Therefore, Captain Qian made the decision to divide the crystal cores equally according to weight. (The quantity was really too large. If they were to count by weight, it would take them several days just to count the crystal cores.)

The other captains insisted on giving one-fifth of their team's crystal cores to Li Xue as a thank you for saving her life. Moreover, if it weren't for Li Xue's supernatural power, they wouldn't have been able to get so many crystal cores. It was even a question whether they could escape danger.

Li Xue naturally tried to refuse. The crystal cores she had secretly collected in the past few nights were already twice as much as their team had received. How could she accept their kindness again?
