Chapter 25: Do something big
Yun Shuhuai was awakened by Guo Baorou's step. Maine, who was several times bigger than an average cat, lay on her and almost suffocated her.
"Ahem, Guo Baorou, do you want to murder your master?" Yun Shuhuai held it in his arms and rubbed it.
After a while of nonsense, Yun Shuhuai looked at the time. The light screen showed the time of the space. It had been nine hours since she entered the space, which was less than two hours outside. She felt that she had rested enough and could go out and continue to act.
However, Yun Shuhuai did not want to go out yet. She walked into the training room and started daily training. Having a strong body in the end times would allow her to survive better and fight more persistently when encountering zombies.
This training played a big role in her being able to hold off the zombies for so long in the mall.
Yun Shuhuai looked at the time, and after staying here for fifteen hours, she changed into a set of equipment that was convenient for fighting and going out to collect supplies.
Only three hours had passed outside, and Yun Shuhuai seized the time to ride her motorcycle and headed to the next location.
Hospitals, pharmacies, gas stations, malls... Yun Shuhuai rode towards her goals one by one.
She didn't take all the supplies in every place she went to, but left half. She would not collect supplies in just this one place, and there was no need to kill them all.
In five days, Yun Shuhuai almost ran through every marked place on the city map. With the magic tool of space, she could always recover her spirit in a short time and continue the next action.
She collected the necessary things first, and then slowly replenished the others. During this period, she also saw survivors coming out one after another to look for supplies.
Those without superpowers acted in groups, holding weapons and carefully looking for food outside, while those with superpowers formed gangs and factions to grab more supplies.
In these days, Yun Shuhuai not only saw zombies chasing humans, but also saw humans fighting for food and killing each other.
She had seen many such things in her previous life. Even in a safe base, such situations would often occur. Yun Shuhuai did not feel much about it.
Yun Shuhuai did not collect too much food. When others were still worrying about food, she paid more attention to the quality of life and collected more equipment.
Therefore, she generally did not meet other survivors in many places she went, avoiding conflicts when competing for supplies.
In addition, she often acted in the middle of the night, when most survivors hid. After all, the vision was obstructed in the dark, and even a superpower might encounter unexpected events when encountering zombies.
Yun Shuhuai wore a night vision goggles and easily climbed up the outer wall and safely entered the target location through the window.
Yun Shuhuai kept running around collecting supplies until she killed a zombie and dug out a crystal core from its head.
The almond-sized transparent crystal core showed that it was a zombie without attributes.
Yun Shuhuai was so excited holding the crystal core.
Finally, I can finally start upgrading!
Before, I always collected supplies to avoid attracting the attention of zombies. In addition to checking the zombies' heads in the morning, noon and evening, I didn't kill many zombies every day. Now that the crystal core has finally grown, Yun Shuhuai looks at these zombies and feels that they are walking experience bags.
Since she found the crystal core, Yun Shuhuai stopped hiding and began to actively kill zombies. While collecting supplies, she would try her best to kill all the zombies nearby and then dig out their crystal cores.
However, the crystal cores required to upgrade special abilities are several times more than other abilities, so killing them one by one is a waste of time.
In order to upgrade as quickly as possible, Yun Shuhuai began to do whatever it takes. She planned to do something big.
Relying on the space she had, she collected all the abandoned vehicles on the road, piled them up in an open space at night to form a C shape with only one exit, and then led a large number of zombies in, dropped a lighter, and immediately drilled into the space.
The lighter fell to the ground and ignited the gasoline on the ground and on those cars.
"Boom!!!"
A huge explosion sounded in the dark city, blazing flames shot up into the sky, and the blown-up cars scattered from the center of the explosion like meteors, landing on the surrounding areas and continuing to burn.
Yun Shuhuai's action was very quiet this time, and people who didn't know what was going on looked at the explosion site from a distance, and no one dared to go forward to check the situation immediately. Some people planned to wait until dawn to check. The
sky gradually brightened, and the cars at the center of the explosion were almost burned out, leaving only skeletons. After a night of burning and cooling, now people can stand around except for the ground which is still a little hot.
But for safety reasons, Yun Shuhuai still wore a heat-insulating suit when he came out.
All the zombies on the ground had been blown to death. Yun Shuhuai had dumped a lot of gasoline here. Most of the zombies were burned to ashes, and some near the edge were burned to charred corpses. Fortunately, the zombies were surrounded and in the center of the explosion. They were not blown away and were well concentrated together, which made it much easier for her to collect the crystal cores on the ground.
The bad thing was that Yun Shuhuai had to search through the ashes one by one, which was too slow. After thinking about it, she still collected all the ashes and corpses on the ground into the space, which was almost like scraping a layer of soil.
After getting what she wanted, Yun Shuhuai quickly rode her motorcycle away from here. If nothing unexpected happened, someone would come to check the situation in a while.
Yun Shuhuai ran to the previous stop and entered the space.
She had already packed all the ashes into containers. She poured gasoline on them and let them continue to burn. Soon, they were all burned to ashes. After filtering out the ashes, crystal cores appeared one by one.
Yun Shuhuai rinsed them clean and counted them. There were almost two hundred of them. Together with the ones she had collected before, they were enough for her to reach the second level!
From the time she discovered that zombies grew crystal cores, it has only been a day and a half. No one can collect so many crystal cores faster than her. In her previous life, even powerful natural psychics would take at least a month to reach the second level. Moreover, the crystal cores they needed to upgrade were far inferior to the special type.
However, in this pile of crystal cores, Yun Shuhuai found two crystal cores of other colors, one light yellow and one light green. Their colors are very light, and they are not easy to be found among these transparent crystal cores.
After careful identification, these are the crystal cores of the earth and wood elements.
Have the supernatural zombies begun to appear? Judging from the color of the crystal cores, they should have just been generated not long ago. It seems that I have to be more careful in the future. Supernatural zombies are not easy to deal with.
Yun Shuhuai picked out these two and put them away.
Now that he has obtained the crystal cores, Yun Shuhuai stayed in the villa and began to absorb them with peace of mind.
Crystal cores of different attributes can provide more energy for the supernaturals of their corresponding attributes.
If you think of crystal cores as experience tickets in the game, and assume that a crystal core without attributes provides 10 points of experience to a psychic, then a crystal core with attributes can provide more than 20 points of experience to a psychic with the corresponding attributes. If a psychic with non-corresponding attributes uses a crystal core with non-corresponding attributes, the energy he gets is still 10 points.
Of course, this is based on the example of primary crystal cores. The energy contained in high-level crystal cores is more refined, providing more energy to psychics, and is more valuable in the end times.
Therefore, in the past life, if someone collected crystal cores that did not match their own attributes, they would basically keep them and exchange them with other psychics or use them to exchange for what they needed.
