Ten late-stage first-level crystal cores melted in Gu Mingyue's hands.
After absorbing the crystal core, she clearly felt that the crystal core in her brain was getting bigger, and its color was becoming purer and more translucent.
One minute later, I opened my eyes.
The dark cave was damp and chilly. The black bear and its cubs, who had just fought, huddled together, their bellies rising and falling in unison. Even though they were sleeping far away from her, she could still see the intertwined fur between them.
Her eyesight has improved!
Gu Mingyue closed her eyes and carefully sensed her spiritual domain. The ten-meter spiritual domain continued to expand until it spread out of the air-raid shelter entrance, gradually forming a sphere with a radius of twenty meters.
Gu Mingyue could clearly sense the giant earthworms and millipedes burrowing underground, and with a little effort, those venomous insects would stop exploring underground.
Insects have weaker mental strength than animals. Gu Mingyue concentrated her mental strength in the domain into two parts, targeting an earthworm underground and a spider in an air-raid shelter respectively, and performed a mental piercing on their narrow brains.
The earthworms underground instantly fell into eternal slumber, and the mutated spiders that were weaving webs inside the air-raid shelter also retracted their eight legs and dangled from the web, their abdomens still attached to the spider silk, allowing them to hang in mid-air, swaying in the wind.
There were no visible injuries on its body, but if you opened its brain, you would find that it had turned into a lump of mush, like a rotten egg about to explode.
In the late post-apocalyptic world, people with psychic abilities are disliked because they can kill without leaving a trace. If an ordinary person passing by is glanced at by them, their head may be blown off the next second.
Other ability users, protected by their crystal cores, won't have their heads blown off, but they still suffer. If their ability level is lower than that of mental ability users, they may experience increased brain pressure or even complete memory loss, turning them into an idiot or a useless person.
Because this move consumes a lot of supernatural power, Gu Mingyue used it only a handful of times in her previous life.
But now she killed two mutated insects with one use, and only felt a slight hunger. She felt that she could use this level of mental piercing at least four more times a day.
Having top-tier superpowers is so awesome!
Gu Mingyue got off the folding bed and walked lightly through the tunnel to the edge of the cave entrance. Every step she took was precisely controlled by her brain, and she made almost no sound.
Shen Ming and his pets slept soundly without being woken up at all.
The time spent inside the space finally increased from 2 hours and 24 minutes to 4 hours and 48 minutes.
Xinghe also sensed a change within himself, and he spent twice as much time outside.
It will be great to have more time to spend with my owner from now on!
Gu Mingyue arrived outside the air-raid shelter, eating a cream bread in her hand. Suddenly, she looked up and met Xinghe's bright and gentle eyes.
"Why are you staring at me? Is there cream on my face?" Gu Mingyue asked, somewhat puzzled.
Xinghe shook his head.
Gu Mingyue quickly smiled slyly, "Hehe, feel like you've become stronger? It's all thanks to your good master! You've hitched a ride on my coattails!"
"How can you thank me? Why not just give me a kiss?"
After Gu Mingyue finished speaking, she stuffed the bread into her mouth in a few bites and swallowed it. She pointed to her smooth cheek and gestured for Xinghe to respond quickly.
Xinghe slowly approached her, his movements somewhat awkward, his cool fingers gently stroking Gu Mingyue's delicate chin.
The woman before him had skin as smooth as cream, with a wonderful feel to it, and rosy cheeks. He slowly lowered his head as if he were kissing a delicate flower, making him hesitant to touch her.
Gu Mingyue waited for a long time, but Xinghe didn't come up to her. She turned around impatiently.
Their eyes met, and her lips accidentally brushed against Xinghe's soft, slightly cool, rosy lips.
His warm breath sprayed onto the tip of his incredibly handsome nose.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
That was the sound of Gu Mingyue's heart pounding wildly.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment, with countless stars surrounding a crescent moon in the darkness, casting a soft glow upon the earth.
Let young lovers, experiencing their first stirrings of love, see each other's hearts even in the darkest of night!
Gu Mingyue was the first to step away and reached out to pat Xinghe on the shoulder.
"Ahem, I was careless. Our first kiss is gone!"
"You're right, it's your fault, you're too slow, but you don't realize that I'm the one who suffers more!"
Gu Mingyue practically fled in panic, quickly running back to the air-raid shelter. She jumped onto the folding bed, rested her head on her arm, and closed her eyes to rest. When she went out to keep watch at midnight, she found that the tall and slender figure was no longer outside the air-raid shelter.
Yes, when the time comes, he has to return to the space.
But thinking about it, it's not a big deal. Xinghe was originally hers. Kissing is kissing, it's no big deal. In the apocalypse, people should live freely and happily.
Gu Mingyue sat on a stool outside the air-raid shelter, her expression returning to one of vigilance.
She was unaware that the man who had entered the space was now blushing, his blood boiling as if it had been boiled.
One moment he's rubbing his lips with his fingers, smiling broadly; the next he's serious, his brows furrowed, desperately examining his mistakes—he looks like he has a split personality!
Gu Mingyue and Shen Ming switched shifts again that night.
The next day, the two of them caught several mutated pheasants for breakfast.
Then they went to the outer edge of the valley to catch the scattered humanoid monsters that were converging on this side.
Those with higher levels arrived early; those arriving now are mostly early or mid-level players.
Gu Mingyue was not interested. After reaching level two, level one crystal cores had almost no effect on her leveling up. They could only be used as energy bars to recharge when her superpowers were exhausted.
The training wasn't up to par either; she could easily defeat those who were slow, even without using her mental abilities.
"You dare to be late for a meeting? You look like skin and bones, so I won't fine you. Let's just open your head to liven things up." Gu Mingyue lazily drew her compound bow and randomly took down a small monster!
The black bear wasn't in high spirits either. It was quite capable for a bear to live near a monster's gathering place. With one slap, it hit a humanoid monster's head, and the monster's head instantly shattered into pieces, turning into minced meat. It even picked out the late-stage level one crystal cores to eat.
Shen Ming and his pets were quite excited to see these monsters, rubbing their hands together and eager to try them out.
Shenming, in particular, had very little experience in killing monsters. This time, he suddenly attacked a powerful monster. At first, he only dared to follow behind the pets and finish them off.
After finishing off too many monsters, he tried to take on the task of killing any remaining monsters by himself with the crow monster.
Gu Mingyue had already removed the hair from the crow monster's head, but it was still behaving itself.
It found that the beautiful human had become even more terrifying; a cold glance from him made its head ache.
It was as if the woman could instantly annihilate it if it dared to make any unusual move, which terrified it more than its higher-ranking counterparts.
