Chapter 31 Promotion
As soon as Cheng Sinian got home, he leaned back on the sofa, breathing rapidly, and took a big sip of the fruit water that Qiao Yu had placed on the table.
"Zhan, how are you?" Qiao Yu saw that Jiang Zhan, though calm, looked very pale, and couldn't help but feel a little worried. He had just been using his mental power to protect her, and he had to divide his attention to kill the aliens, so he must be the most exhausted.
Jiang Zhan shook his head and whispered, "Not tired." Then he held her and sat on the sofa, kissed her lips, and coaxed her, "Close your eyes and rest for a while."
Qiao Yu was indeed a little tired. Just as he was about to rest for a while, he heard Cheng Sinian mutter in surprise, "This water..."
Qiao Yu turned around and saw Cheng Sinian staring at the water in his hand with a complicated expression, so he asked in confusion, "What's wrong with the water?"
Cheng Sinian turned to look at her, "Is this the fruit water in your space?"
Qiao Yu nodded, "Yes, didn't I tell you?"
"Both of you drink a bottle, drink it now." Cheng Sinian looked serious and didn't seem to be joking.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhan and Qiao Yu each took a bottle and drank it.
As the fruit juice entered his body, Qiao Yu felt that the dull pain in his head was gradually relieved, and his sore and weak body was gradually recovering.
This feeling...Qiao Yu's eyes widened suddenly.
This feeling is exactly the same as when absorbing the crystal core! Although the effect is not as obvious and fast as when directly absorbing the crystal core, it is indeed the same feeling.
Qiao Yu was stunned. She only knew that fruit water could purify the body and restore physical strength, but she didn't expect it could also restore superpowers.
Although it was slower than the crystal core, it was still an extremely valuable effect. In this way, their growth rate could reach at least 1.5 times that of ordinary aliens, or even twice as fast.
With the fruit juice and crystal core, the three of them went to the villa complex at the foot of the mountain to kill alien species for two consecutive days, and their superpowers did improve rapidly.
At noon on the third day, the thick fog outside had dissipated a little, and the temperature began to rise. It was clearly the dead of winter, but it was so hot that it felt like the height of summer.
Qiao Yu took out the short-sleeved T-shirts he had prepared earlier from the space. The three of them put them on and drove towards the villa complex at the foot of the mountain.
"It's winter, and the temperature has reached 40°C? This weather is bizarre. Will it always be this hot?" The three of them couldn't bear to turn on the air conditioner, so Cheng Sinian had to drive with one hand and hold onto his collar with the other, fanning himself. While aliens have a certain degree of adaptability to the environment, they still feel a certain temperature.
Seeing Cheng Sinian was suffering from severe heatstroke, Qiao Yu condensed some ice cubes into a storage box and placed it on the passenger seat. Her ice was more heat-resistant than ordinary ice and melted much more slowly.
"Congratulations, you guessed half right."
"What do you mean by guessing half right?" Cheng Sinian felt the cool air coming from the ice and finally felt a little better.
Qiao Yu condensed a few more pieces of ice and placed them on the foot pad, then continued, "It's so hot during the day, it will be cold at night. After the apocalypse, there will be no four seasons. The temperature difference between day and night is huge, it's extremely hot during the day and extremely cold at night, it's very extreme."
What's the temperature difference between day and night? "How big is big? How low does the temperature drop at night?"
"Hmm... I didn't have a thermometer in my previous life, so I didn't pay attention to this problem. But according to my body temperature..." Qiao Yu touched his chin and guessed, "Probably around ten degrees below zero."
Cheng Sinian expressed doubts about Qiao Yu's physical sensation, but for now, he could only trust her temporarily.
A temperature difference of over fifty degrees... Cheng Sinian sighed, "It's really extreme..."
No wonder Qiao Yu said there would be heavy fog every morning and evening in the future.
The three of them soon arrived at the villa complex at the foot of the mountain. After two days of cleaning, the number of alien species here had decreased significantly.
"Help! Help! Help..."
Just as the three of them were struggling to deal with the remaining alien species, a cry for help suddenly came from not far away, and Qiao Yu looked back.
Although the fog blocked his vision, Qiao Yu could still see clearly - there were two girls standing at the second-floor window of a house, waving at them hard, while two alien species downstairs were banging hard on the door of the room they were in.
The two girls have gentle looks and appear to be around twenty years old. They have some similarities in their eyebrows and eyes, so they must be sisters.
Jiang Zhan had already told them that there were still living people in this area, so Qiao Yu was not surprised to see them.
Qiao Yu fired three ice blades in succession, slicing off the heads of the three aliens that rushed over. He then shouted at them, "Instead of relying on others, it's better to find a way to cut off the aliens' necks. Only then can you survive."
After the end of the world, everyone is in danger. She is not a Bodhisattva and cannot save all living beings.
Besides, even if she saved them this time, without the ability to protect themselves, they would be trapped and die here sooner or later.
The three of them dealt with the remaining dozens of alien species and dug out the crystal cores. Then Qiao Yu looked back and saw the two girls standing at the first-floor window, each holding a golf club. They suppressed their fear and desperately stabbed the aliens in the neck.
Qiao Yu paused, then finally raised his hand and shot out two ice blades. He then didn't even look at the two girls and got into the car.
There are no more alien species in the villa area, so they need to continue walking down the mountain.
There were sharp roars coming from the entrance one after another. Jiang Zhan didn't even need to investigate to imagine that the number was definitely considerable.
Jiang Zhan tilted his head to look at the two alien corpses, and several cyclones silently twisted in the air. Jiang Zhan raised his hand, and with a clench of his fingers, the crystal cores in the back of the brains of the two aliens whose heads had been blown off by Qiao Yu were delivered to Jiang Zhan's hand by the cyclones.
Jiang Zhan took the crystal core, glanced at the two girls with a puzzled look, then opened the car door and got in.
Back in the car, Qiao Yu looked at Jiang Zhan with sparkling eyes: "You can telekinetically retrieve objects so quickly?"
Jiang Zhan held her in his arms and smiled, "I just wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect it to be successful."
"Azhan is so amazing." As expected of a dual-system mutant, his growth rate... Qiao Yu's eyes were full of envy and admiration.
Jiang Zhan was obviously very pleased with Qiao Yu's praise. The curve of his mouth widened a little, and he kissed her lips and said softly, "Baby, you are also very good."
Cheng Sinian saw the two people being affectionate through the rearview mirror, and his heart sank. He said in self-abandonment: "You two are both great, okay! It's really unbearable to watch. Don't you know that protecting single people is everyone's responsibility?" Why didn't he find a girlfriend in advance!
The car soon arrived at the gate of the villa area.
There were indeed a lot of alien species here, densely packed outside the security fence, roaring and trying to rush in. Looking around, there were at least hundreds of them.
"There are too many alien species. We can't go out. Let's try to shoot their heads and let Azhan take the crystal core. Also, be alert. If someone gets close, don't use your superpowers." After Qiao Yu finished speaking, he shot out three ice blades, heading straight for the alien's skull.
After the ice blade entered the skull, frost instantly spread out, freezing the inside and outside, and then cracking inch by inch until it shattered.
Jiang Zhan and Cheng Sinian said nothing when they heard this, but their supernatural powers were aimed at the alien's head.
Jiang Zhan swung his wind blades while simultaneously controlling the cyclonic airflow to collect the crystal cores. The depletion of his supernatural powers was noticeable, and soon beads of sweat formed on his forehead. But he remained silent, persevering through the process of killing the aliens while collecting the crystal cores.
