After hearing Gu Yan's words, Shen Jing did not rush to refute them.
On the contrary, she had a sense of déjà vu about the current situation.
Just now, Gu Yan's eyes showed none of the usual worry.
But Shen Jing could see his panic clearly.
Despite his words of disdain, he still healed her as quickly as possible.
Shen Jing gave a weak smile and asked somewhat reluctantly, "What are you doing here?"
Gu Yan glanced at her indifferently. "I came here to track down this vulture. It has the crystal core I need on it." His tone was calm and indifferent, as if he were just going out for a stroll.
As he spoke, Gu Yan stared disdainfully at the vultures circling nearby that refused to leave.
"What level is that vulture's crystal core?"
Shen Jing discovered that even after upgrading to level 7, she still couldn't detect the vulture's level.
Gu Yan turned to look at the defiant Shen Jing, a mocking smile playing on his thin lips: "After your advancement, are you still unable to suppress that vulture in terms of level?"
Shen Jing put her hands on the ground and gave up, saying helplessly, "Looks like all my efforts were in vain."
However, after leveling up, she now clearly feels that she is more adept at detecting and controlling her special abilities.
Perhaps we could try reading Gu Yan's memories again... I wonder what secrets that young Gu Yan in her memories held, that allowed him to break through the limitations of time and space in memories and communicate with her across distance.
But Gu Yan seemed to keenly sense Shen Jing's intentions and gave her a warning look.
Not to mention that Gu Yan is already wary of her, even if it were the Gu Yan who was unguarded towards her before, she wouldn't have the mental energy to do anything underhanded to him now.
Previously, he might have been able to take advantage of the situation, but now Gu Yan seems to have returned to being the top-tier boss with unparalleled combat power!
The vultures were still circling nearby, unwilling to give up, and wouldn't allow Shen Jing to be distracted.
You’re not to mention.
This vulture is actually of a higher level than her and Vassi. Just how many corpses has it eaten... and the crystal cores inside?
It's estimated that it's not limited to the west.
If the zombies in the city are also being raised in the same way.
So……
Doesn't that mean even higher-level zombies will soon appear in those cities abandoned by humans?!
Shen Jing is probably no match for them now. Even if she manages to fight them, she'll be badly injured, if not killed!
Why is someone as lazy as Shen Jing working so hard to level up?
She didn't want to experience the same fear of being controlled by death at any moment as she had in her previous life!
Before Shen Jing could react, she heard Vassi bark, and the vulture swooped down towards her!
Vassi leaped up and jumped onto the vulture's back, biting hard, "Woof woof woof!"
Shen Jing didn't hesitate either, using her supernatural abilities to control and delay the vulture's movements, buying time for Vassi!
Gu Yan stood beside the tree.
He lazily fiddled with the few small metal knives in his hand, showing no intention of helping.
Shen Jing discovered once again that the level 1 lightning ability could not harm the vulture in the slightest.
It seems she was too confident. Superpowers under the suppression of hierarchy are like a child punching an adult!
Shen Jing silently noted down this experience.
The superpower control had lasted for over 10 minutes. Although the vulture's movements had slowed down, it was gradually regaining its fighting strength. Vasily was biting into the vulture's head, displaying a somewhat ferocious savageness, but the vulture's crystal core was still nowhere to be seen.
While Vassi was still suppressing the vulture, she quickly ran over.
Using his newly advanced mental power, he directly struck the vulture's head, instantly shattering its skull!
"Crack!"
The scene was so bloody that even Vassi curled his lip in disgust.
Gu Yan, who was standing next to him, was not angry because his monster was stolen.
He stared intently at the excited Shen Jing without saying a word.
Shen Jing quickly ran to Gu Yan with the golden crystal core in her hand, "Gu Yan, it's a metal-type crystal core!"
Vassi dragged the vulture's carcass and threw it in front of Gu Yan: "Woof woof!"
Looking at the man and dog presenting the treasure, Gu Yan's expression remained as indifferent as ever.
He looked at the beautiful crystal core and asked her, "You really gave it to me?"
Shen Jing nodded and then handed the crystal core in her hand forward.
Gu Yan picked up the 8th-tier metal crystal core and casually crushed it. Without even making a sound, the crystal core disappeared. "It's just an A-grade crystal core, not very useful."
Dude, if he's not very useful, why did you track him out of the base? And what's wrong with him? He looks so happy, why does he still look half-dead?
Shen Jing smiled at Gu Yan, "It seems you don't urgently need this crystal core, so why did you rush over?"
Gu Yan's expression was a half-smile, just like the Gu Yan that Shen Jing knew, but what he said was not like that: "You didn't think I came because I was worried, did you? Don't forget, vultures are social animals."
Shen Jing originally wanted to test Gu Yan again, but then she thought of He Qing and Huang Simiao, who were still alone.
The smile vanished from Shen Jing's face, and she solemnly activated her ability to detect. After advancing her level, her detection range was much wider than before, and she quickly spotted the disheveled He Qing. However, Huang Simiao was nowhere to be seen!
What's going on?
However, there was no trace of vultures in their vicinity.
"Wasi, go find Huang Simiao first!"
Shen Jing took out the hair tie that Huang Simiao had given her and put it on Vassi's nose so that it could recognize Huang Simiao's scent.
"Woof!" I'll find her!
If it were someone else, Shen Jing wouldn't be so nervous, but Huang Simiao was someone she had mentored.
She had to bring Huang Simiao back to the base safely.
Shen Jing turned to look at Gu Yan, only to see him casually saying with his eyes closed, "The forest is not only home to high-level mutated animals like vultures."
"Higher rank than a vulture?" What's the point of playing then? Under the level suppression, Shen Jing's ability detection is useless.
Gu Yan chuckled, "At least I'm better than that fire-wielding guy."
The one who plays with fire... Base Commander!
Shen Jing, no longer caring about Gu Yan's sarcastic remarks, grabbed his hand and ran away as fast as she could.
He was still the same as before, making everything sound incredibly simple to him, and human life was utterly unimportant to him. Anyone else would probably have been driven mad by him, but Shen Jing didn't see anything wrong with Gu Yan.
After all, she didn't really care about other humans before she met Gu Yan.
Shen Jing used the dog whistle to relay commands to Vassi.
Gu Yan, who was following behind, showed no intention of resisting.
He simply looked down at their clasped hands, and now a sharp knife was emerging from their palms.
By simply extending his arm forward, he could kill the woman in front of him without anyone noticing.
First, cut her throat with a knife.
With his ability.
It will ensure that she doesn't feel any pain at all!
