Chapter 98 Competition
As for the camp, they chose the laboratory. There was a control switch inside the door, so it was safe to leave Mother Du inside.
Mother Du looked at the people leaving and wanted to ask them to stay, but she didn't want to disturb them. She opened and closed her mouth, and finally sighed heavily, but still didn't say anything.
Mother Du looked at the switch on the door, and after she could no longer see the children, she pressed the close button immediately.
"Xiao Pu said there are no zombies or animals here, not even a blade of grass. I'm not afraid!" Mother Du said as she cheered herself up. She picked up the rice and pots and pans unloaded from the car, planning to cook a hot meal for the children.
Team Two did not choose the center of Changhai City, but instead went to the city's edge because the density here was comparable to the former center of Diwen City.
It was eight o'clock in the morning and the weather was not too hot. Everyone climbed to the roof of a building. The staircase corridor was full of zombies whose crystal cores had been dug out.
The second team is now able to deal with zombies with ease.
Looking down from the roof, there were so many zombies below that it was terrifying. Some of them were trying to squeeze in from the door downstairs, but unfortunately the door was blocked by Xiao Ren's ice, and they couldn't get up for a while.
"Xia Qi and Xia Guang, you are responsible for the left side, Sister Liu and I are responsible for the right side, Xiao Ren and Yun Yao are responsible for the front, and Sister Pu Zhi and Du Tao are responsible for vigilance." Zhang Xiaobai quickly arranged everyone's tasks.
"Got it!" With a tacit understanding, everyone immediately stood in their respective positions.
"Xia Guang, do you want to compete?" Zhao Yunyao asked provocatively, turning a sharp machete in her hand.
Xia Guang glared at him, and it was obvious that he was very happy with this trick: "How do you compare?"
Zhao Yunyao's eyes narrowed as she smiled, like a playful kitten. "Let's see who kills the most level two and three zombies. Of course, with your abilities, it's a bit difficult. You and Brother Xia Qi will do it together."
Xia Guang snorted coldly, "Let's compete. How can my brother and I, working together, scare you? If you lose, don't say that we two bullied you alone!"
Zhao Yunyao made an OK gesture and walked to her responsible position.
Xia Qi has become accustomed to the bickering between the two. Let them compete, there is no stake anyway.
He had already prepared an air bomb and was sending it downwards, and Xia Guang was ready to ignite it at any time.
On the other side, Zhang Xiaobai stretched out a hand, and instantly the square was lit up with visible purple lightning, which ran wildly among the zombies below. The scene looked like thousands of zombies dancing disco at the same time.
Liu Chuchun took the laser gun and fired at the second-level zombies mercilessly.
Xiao Ren transformed into countless ice cones, and under the dual effects of supernatural powers and inertia, it was almost able to nail the zombies directly to the ground, leaving one fist-sized deep pit after another on the concrete floor.
Zhao Yunyao stood on the rooftop with a flamboyant smile on her face, eager to try.
After getting ready, she took a deep breath and jumped down from the roof. Just as she was about to touch the ground, she overlapped with the shadow of the building. After turning into a black shadow and landing on the ground, she jumped back and forth between the shadows of the zombies.
After seeing a level 2 zombie, she flashed under his shadow, revealed her true form, and cut his neck with lightning speed.
She was not in a hurry to dig out the crystal core, but turned into a black shadow again to look for her next target.
It’s not that she looks down on the first level, but the second level is more cost-effective.
Pu Zhi used his special ability to observe the surroundings to prevent sudden zombie attacks.
A breeze blew by, and she tightened her grip on the long sword, slashing towards the right side very naturally.
A level 2 invisible zombie broke into two pieces, and the pieces fell to the ground with a thud.
Xia Qi couldn't help but look back and said, "Sister Pu Zhi, can your ability now even see invisible zombies?"
Pu Zhi thrust the long knife into the zombie's forehead and dug out the crystal core. "No, it was just a hunch. And zombies stink. I can smell it."
The smell was one factor, but the most important thing was the talent he gained from killing the boss of the Blue Sky Alliance: absolute alertness. The moment the zombie approached, his strong intuition told him that he was on the right.
Xia Qi gave everyone a thumbs-up with admiration, then focused on helping his brother kill zombies.
But soon, everyone was filled with admiration for Pu Zhi's superb intuition.
In just half an hour, she actually killed 18 sneak attacking zombies, although there were a bit too many sneak attacking zombies here.
Zhang Xiaobai saw that everyone was a little tired, so he decided to rest on the spot before continuing.
Zhao Yunyao used the shadows to move from the ground to the rooftop in a few seconds, bringing with her a lot of spoils.
She put her hands on her hips and said to Xia Guang proudly, "I've already taken 15 level 2 crystal cores. Just wait for your loss to me!"
Xia Guang pointed disdainfully at the pile of zombies behind him, not feeling embarrassed at all: "You should catch up with Sister Pu Zhi first. She already has 18 level 2 crystal cores."
Zhao Yunyao felt a moment of shame, but more of a sense of surprise and worry: "Are there so many zombies up there? Are you guys not hurt?"
"No one was hurt. Sister Pu Zhi was like using a cheat. She just killed the zombies. We didn't hear any noise and they disappeared." Xia Qi's admiration was beyond words. He felt very safe with Sister Pu Zhi around.
After a brief rest, everyone started hunting zombies again, and they didn't stop until 11:00 am.
At this time, the number of zombie corpses on the ground had reached an alarming level, especially near the building, where they were almost as high as a floor.
Several people were lying in the corridor, next to the ice cubes that Xiao Ren had transformed, which brought them a sense of coolness in the hot weather.
We rested until around four in the afternoon before going to harvest the crystal cores. The temperature at this time had already begun to drop, so we had to avoid heatstroke from the high temperature.
Almost ninety-nine percent of zombies nowadays have crystal cores, so there is no need for Pu Zhi to chop them down one by one.
However, when she put the crystal core into her pocket, she would secretly replace the plant-type crystal core with crystal cores of other attributes stored in the space.
Digging for crystal cores was a huge project, which took a full hour and a half to complete. Although it was hard work, everyone enjoyed it.
Everyone counted the crystal cores while driving, and by the time they arrived at the laboratory, the crystal cores had been counted.
10,500 first-level crystal cores, 410 second-level crystal cores, and 15 third-level crystal cores. This is much higher than the harvest in Diwen City.
The match between Zhao Yunyao and Xia Guang also had a result. Zhao Yunyao's 88 second-level crystal cores narrowly defeated the Xia Guang and Xia Qi brothers who had 85 crystal cores. However, if the first-level crystal cores were included, they would be far superior to Zhao Yunyao.
So even though Xia Guang lost, he was not very depressed.
Boom boom boom——
As Du Tao knocked on the door, there was silence for a moment, and then Du's mother's tentative voice sounded: "Who is it?"
"Mom, we're back, open the door!" Du Tao shouted loudly.
