Chapter 112 Combat Preparation
"You still have this?" Cheng Sinian took a tranquilizer gun and touched it in amazement, his eyes full of amazement.
"Look at you, you look so naive." Qiao Yu raised his eyebrows, "There are still many things you don't know!"
Cheng Sinian rolled his eyes silently.
Qiao Yu stopped teasing and looked a little serious. "This is going to be a tough one. Everyone should be mentally prepared."
"Ah Zhan has just done a rough survey. There are currently more than 700 people in the village. Not counting us, there are at least nearly 300 aliens and about 7 or 8 mutants. Some of the aliens may be victims, but those mutants are definitely enemies."
The combat power of a mutant is at least twice that of an enhanced mutant. They cannot be so foolish as to treat such combat power as a commodity or "food reserve".
The strong are respected wherever they go.
The female plant variant in that "boss" yard is a good example.
"Three hundred strange people?" Cheng Sinian's face darkened.
Even though they are natural aliens and mutants, they still feel a bit overwhelmed when facing such a large number of enemies.
"Yes. And the worst thing is, these people should all know the function of the crystal core."
It has been almost three months since the end of the world. According to the time in the previous life, the research institutes of the major bases should have discovered the role of crystal cores in replenishing the energy of aliens, and have designated crystal cores as the "universal currency" within the base.
Nanliu Village, as a "den of money-consuming activities", is backed by the base, so it will inevitably use the base's currency to "settle fees".
Upon hearing this, Cheng Sinian and the other two looked even more solemn.
Seeing their bitter and resentful expressions, Qiao Yu couldn't help but comfort them softly, "Don't be too discouraged, though. Think positively. Although they outnumber us, they are in the open while we are in the dark. We can just outsmart them. We don't have to face so many aliens head-on. And even if they have crystal cores, they may not have as many as we do. What's more, we still have fruit water."
Qiao Yu was absolutely confident in the number of crystal cores she had. After all, she had been diligently collecting them since the beginning of the apocalypse.
What's more, they have the trump card of fruit juice.
For mutants, although the crystal core can quickly replenish supernatural energy, its inability to replenish physical strength is its fatal flaw.
This is why Jiang Zhan was so powerful in his previous life, but was ultimately defeated by the alien tide.
Because at that time, he died of exhaustion.
But fruit water just makes up for the deficiency of the crystal core in this regard.
The speed at which fruit water replenishes supernatural energy is indeed slower than that of the crystal core, but it can quickly replenish the physical strength of the supernatural being.
The mental limit of an alien without sleep is about a week.
So theoretically, as long as they have enough crystal cores and fruit water, they can continue fighting for more than a week without sleep.
And it's not just for mutants; the same applies to mutants. For enhanced mutants who haven't developed special abilities, physical strength is energy, so the effect of fruit water on them is even far greater than that of crystal cores.
"That's right." Cheng Sinian nodded. Although the enemy had the advantage in numbers, they had strong "endurance"!
"Then I'll go tell the Lin family and ask them to get ready."
Qiao Yu touched his chin and said, "No. You don't have to go. A Zhan and I will go and talk to him."
With so many aliens in the village now, there must be some with enhanced hearing. They were the target of public criticism, so there was no guarantee someone wouldn't eavesdrop. With Jiang Zhan around, at least their conversation wouldn't be leaked.
and……
"I didn't plan on asking them for help."
Cheng Sinian crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows, "Are you afraid they'll hold you back?"
"I guess so." Qiao Yu shrugged. "The Lin family only has five mutants. Lin Han and Duoduo's abilities aren't offensive, and Fang Lin can't be relied upon. There are so many enemy mutants. If we fail to outwit them and face them head-on, the Lin family will definitely be in trouble."
"Lin Yingjie and his men value their families more than themselves. If the other party takes advantage of their weakness, then Lin Yingjie will be completely ruined. So, instead of being held hostage, it's better to let them keep their hands off us."
"Their abilities are limited, and they can't really help us. It would be best if they can avoid causing us any trouble."
"Tsk. You're such a heartless woman." Cheng Sinian curled his lips playfully. "If the Lin family heard this, they would probably be heartbroken."
Qiao Yu touched her nose in embarrassment. Although what she said was unpleasant to hear, it was the truth!
Cheng Sinian was about to make another joke when he heard Jiang Zhan suddenly whisper, "They're here."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yu immediately put all the anesthetic guns and anesthetic injections on the kang into the space.
Jiang Zhan also lifted the mental barrier at this time.
Sure enough, a few seconds later, the five people heard the "woooo" warning sound of the king bomb.
"Brother Cheng! Brother Yu! Are you there?"
Liu Da's voice, which was slightly frightened, was heard from outside the door.
Qiao Yu nodded to Cheng Sinian and Yu Qingchuan, and signaled them with his eyes to perform well.
Cheng Sinian received the signal, raised the corners of his lips in a rogue manner, waited for a while, then put his arm around Yu Qingchuan's shoulder and walked out slowly.
When they reached the door, Cheng Sinian's expression changed in an instant, he put on a wry smile, and hurriedly pulled Yu Qingchuan to Liu Da.
"Sorry, Brother Liu, I accidentally fell asleep just now. What's the matter? Is there something you need from us?"
Liu Da calmly glanced at the door behind them, then with a smile on his face, he asked three of his men to bring the trays they were holding up to them. "Hey, it's okay, I'm just here to bring you dinner!"
Each tray contained two large plates of cooked meat, a total of six plates, without a single bone, and the portions were very generous.
Liu Da said, patting Cheng Sinian's arm. "I asked the kitchen to make this for you in advance, just in case you were hungry! What do you think, brother, am I being nice?"
Cheng Sinian and Yu Qingchuan looked at the plates full of meat, their stomachs churning, but their faces were full of gratitude. "Oh, why did you bother Brother Liu to come here in person for this matter! You didn't even tell us in advance. If you had known, we would have just gone and got it ourselves! Look, how embarrassed we are..."
Liu Da smiled and waved his hands, "It's okay, you just came to the village and you're not familiar with the roads, so it's only right that I take care of you!"
"Hey, I guess you two can't carry it all? How about I help you carry it in?"
"No, no!" Yu Qingchuan immediately stepped forward and took the two trays, holding one in each hand, and said with a gentle smile: "I dare not trouble Brother Liu again with this matter! I am a strength-type mutant, I am very strong, these plates of meat are no problem!"
Cheng Sinian silently gave Yu Qingchuan a thumbs-up in his heart, then reached out to take the remaining tray. "That's right, Brother Liu, don't worry, the two of us can do it!"
