Chapter 152 An Astounding Stockpile of Crystals!



About 20 minutes later, the second wave of corpses was also lured into the incinerator.

All preparations were complete, and Huang Zhao prepared to leave the duty room to ignite the incineration pit.

On the screen, a fire-type zombie that had been attracted to the horde suddenly fired a fireball, instantly igniting the fuel in the incinerator.

The raging flames spread rapidly, soon engulfing the entire incineration pit in flames.

'Great, that saves me trouble.'

Huang Zhao stopped and looked at the zombies howling in the incineration pool on the screen.

The others felt a pang of sympathy and a strong sense of unease.

Besides assigning tasks and demonstrating, this was also why Huang Zhao had Brother Jie bring everyone here; people need to get used to these things eventually.

They must realize that zombies and humans are two different species, completely opposed and with no possibility of peaceful coexistence!

Seeing that not a single zombie could escape from the burning incinerator, Huang Zhao said to Brother Jie:

"After the fire is stopped, the crystals in the incineration pool will be recovered."

Tomorrow, we'll arrange for someone to clean up the residue inside, and then have Engineer Duan modify the incineration pit.

There is a large amount of fuel stored on the campus of East China University of Political Science and Law. I will send you the location in a moment.

"Starting tomorrow, we'll deploy personnel to carry out this mission. Each time, at least 40,000 zombies must be burned!"

Brother Jie swallowed hard and replied with some difficulty:

"Yes...yes, Lord City Lord!"

Clearly, the scene before him was difficult for him to accept at first.

After explaining everything, Huang Zhao led Qin Yi out of the duty room, leaving the rest to Brother Jie.

'Finally, it's all over!'

Huang Zhao let out a long breath and decided to take stock of his small warehouse when he got back.

I've been so busy these past few days that I haven't had a chance to take stock of the crystals and supplies.

Huang Zhao and Qin Yi walked towards the shelter. Qin Yi said in the mental connection:

"Lord of the city, I would like to patrol the city. Please let me know if you need anything!"

"Go ahead, there are other things to take care of now."

Huang Zhao knew that Qin Yi would patrol the city in armor every day after returning to Dawn City, so he was not surprised.

In the absence of entertainment, many survivors in Dawn City actually spend time in the city before resting.

They exchanged information about their experiences after the apocalypse with other survivors, and engaged in some in-depth yet accessible conversations.

With the end times upon us, and no tomorrow in sight, many survivors choose to live for the moment.

Even though fighting is not allowed in Dawn City, many members have applied to the terminal to open the training ground's battle arena so they can spar with other members.

However, Huang Zhao was worried that injuries from sparring would affect his mission the next day, so he had not agreed.

However, now that Alice, a healing-type character, has joined the fray, we might consider opening up the battlegrounds for them to vent their energy.

If you're injured and want to receive treatment, you'll have to pay a high amount of points.

Huang Zhao suppressed this thought for the time being, controlled Chen Run to return to the rest room to wait, and his consciousness went deep into Chen Run's supernatural space.

Looking at the 20 million cubic meter space, nearly one-tenth of the space was already filled with supplies.

All of these were collected by Huang Zhao from various shops and supermarkets in logistics parks, gas stations, and when he went out.

The largest volume of materials was collected from the Jinling Logistics Park on the third day, most of which were building materials for the construction of Shuguang City.

'We need to find a place to take all these things out. It just so happens that Brother Jie also reported a shortage of building materials for the outer city.'

In addition, priority should be given to clearing out the zombies in the west so that members can transport supplies back from the west to build Dawn City.

Throwing these materials away will free up nearly a million cubic meters of space!

Besides food, the supernatural space also contains a large number of other miscellaneous items.

So far, only a portion of those that needed to be exchanged have been taken out; the vast majority are still piled up in Chen Run's ability space.

Huang Zhao plans to build several warehouses after the outer city is completed so that the members of Dawn City can sort them again.

No longer focusing on the readily available supplies, Huang Zhao turned his attention to the most important resource in the post-apocalyptic world:

Energy Crystal!

In the supernatural space, crystals of different levels and categories were piled together in a small mountain!

The largest quantity is still zero-level energy crystals, which are nearly a hundred times more numerous than other crystal stacks of level one and above.

Although it looks like a lot, if the members of Dawn City were to absorb it freely, the inventory would be depleted in less than a month.

However, in return, the strength of the members of Dawn City will inevitably be greatly improved, but this is just something Huang Zhao thinks to himself.

Huang Zhao was not so noble as to selflessly donate the crystals he had painstakingly collected.

There's no such thing as a free lunch!

There are plenty of crystals, want some?

Then let's earn it through labor, through our contributions to Dawn City!

The crystals that the hunting team handed over today, as well as the crystals that Huang Zhao placed at the crystal exchange point in Dawn City, have all been returned to the shelter by the maid.

At this moment, Chen Run's supernatural space contained almost all the energy crystals of Dawn City, totaling:

One zero-level energy crystal, 1037 first-level energy crystals of various systems, 31 second-level energy crystals, and 6 third-level energy crystals.

And a level 4 energy crystal that has absorbed the remaining 8,000+ energy points and a newly acquired level 4 energy crystal that has not yet been absorbed!

Most of the first and second-level energy crystals are still attribute-less energy crystals, while the rest are beast-type and element-type.

The only special type energy crystal available was a level three mental type crystal extracted from the Corpse King's head, which Huang Zhao planned to try absorbing tomorrow.

Huang Zhao has already given the Level 3 Restoration Energy Crystal to Alice and has not taken it back.

Huang Zhao discovered the two rare element crystals he had initially obtained from the Dharma King and the gate of East China University of Political Science and Law in the first-level crystal pile.

A purple lightning-type energy crystal and an ice-blue ice-type energy crystal, both level one, 2 millimeters in size.

'It's a pity there aren't any awakened ability users of these two types in Dawn City, otherwise we could try to see if we'd encounter the same situation as Alice.'

With a sufficient supply of crystals, Huang Zhao took out 5,000 level-zero crystals from his special ability space and handed them to the maid.

Have them take them to the crystal exchange point in the training ground for Dawn City members to exchange and absorb tomorrow.

At the same time, the rules for crystal exchange and absorption can be modified through the terminal.

All members who leave the city to carry out hunting and search and rescue missions can exchange for advanced energy crystals by paying extra points.

However, Huang Zhao does not intend to open up the exchange qualification for level four energy crystals.

Even among members of Dawn City, there are still distinctions of kinship.

Only those approved by Huang Zhao can enjoy this benefit.
