Chapter 165 Xiao Chou’s Plan
The next day, the snow on the ground was thicker, but the wind and snow stopped, and the sun even appeared in the sky.
Jin Hang went to investigate the sea area, and came back to tell everyone: "The sea area has not expanded, the melted ice has frozen again, and the ice wall is still there."
It was quite a pleasure for people to gather around the fire and eat the hot pot.
"Why would those jellyfish create such an ice wall? What good would it do for them to divide the capital into two parts? They can't be trying to turn the entire land into the sea, right?" Ling Yao asked himself as he ate meat in big mouthfuls.
"This must be Xiao Chou's plan to prevent us from returning to the Superpower Bureau." Xie Ling was still holding the little Shiba Inu in his arms, and while speaking, he stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth.
After being a Shiba Inu for a whole night, Xiao Yan has now adapted to it. The most important thing is that Xie Ling will always hug him when he is like this. If he were an individual, Xie Ling would have pushed him away long ago.
When Chu Xichi saw that the little Shiba Inu's eyes were narrowed into slits, he knew that he was enjoying himself, and he immediately felt unhappy.
She cursed Xiao Yan to torture him, not to help him!
"Give me a hug!" Chu Xichi stretched out his hands to Xie Ling.
Hearing her voice, the little Shiba Inu howled and burrowed into Xie Ling's down jacket, expressing his refusal with his actions.
Xie Ling said to Chu Xichi with regret: "He doesn't want to."
"You don't want to, right? Then you'll be a dog for the rest of your life. I won't turn you back into a dog." In order to hug the puppy, Chu Xixi even threatened.
Xie Ling was helpless and could only look to Chu Xihen for help.
"That's enough, sit down and have a good meal." Chu Xihen said.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Chu Xichi stopped making trouble and sat down obediently, but he still yelled at Ling Yao in a frustrated tone, "Cook more meat for me, brother, exchange some dog meat for me, I want to eat dog meat!"
Ling Yao almost covered Chu Xixie's mouth, "Xiexie, you can't eat dog meat. If you eat dog meat, the kind fairies won't like you anymore!"
"That's right, eating dog meat will make you stupid. Eat more pork and beef." Chu Xihen said as he took out boxes of fresh meat from the mall.
Jin Hang and the others stared with their eyes wide open.
Although they were already in the Superpower Bureau when the end of the world came, compared to many people in other places, they were already living a life like gods, without having to sleep in the wilderness, and even had conditions for training. However, since all kinds of food rotted and only seasonings were left, they were still very tight on food.
The meat of mutant animals tastes very tough, and is completely incomparable to the pork and beef before the apocalypse. It is a torture to eat it for a long time.
After entering the dungeon, the mall was opened. There was everything in the mall, but fresh meat and vegetables were too expensive. Points had to be used to upgrade abilities first, so there was no extra points to exchange for ingredients.
Now we see that Chu Xihen does not take the points as money at all, and generously provides various supplies for the team. The tent that everyone used to avoid the wind and snow last night was also taken out by Chu Xihen.
"Mr. Chu, I'm curious to ask, your points..." Jin Hang's team has been enjoying the benefits brought by Chu Xihen, but they still feel a little embarrassed in their hearts, so they want to ask clearly so as not to feel uneasy.
"Captain Jin, don't worry. My ability does not need to be upgraded. The points are used to improve our living conditions. Just enjoy them." Chu Xihen didn't want Jin Hang and the others to have a psychological burden after eating a hot pot.
"It's great that there's no need to upgrade superpowers. Unlike us, we have to spend each point carefully. When we're out and about and are thirsty, we feel it's a sin to exchange it for a bottle of mineral water." Yue Rujing said miserably.
Ling Yao felt extremely sympathetic after hearing this, but then she thought he was exaggerating, "Didn't someone give you points? Otherwise, how could your ability level reach level nine so quickly?"
"It is precisely because I used other people's points that I feel that points should not be used indiscriminately. We have taken up other people's opportunities to upgrade their superpowers, but we do not cherish the points. We will be struck by lightning." Yue Rujing replied.
Ling Yao quickly ate two pieces of meat to suppress her surprise, "Now that you mention it, I'm suddenly not so envious of your ability levels."
"Dr. Xie, why do you say that the ice wall was made by Xiao Chou?" Lou Su asked.
Xie Ling glanced at Chu Xihen and said, "Although I haven't started to study Mr. Chu's superpowers, I guess your full-level superpowers will definitely help everyone improve their superpower levels, so it created such an ice wall overnight to prevent us from returning to the Superpower Bureau."
"Because once we go back, the next people entering the dungeon may be many high-level psychics. The probability of dying in the dungeon will be greatly reduced, which will affect its ability to gain power." Chu Xihen continued Xie Ling's words.
Xie Ling nodded. "That's what I mean. It seems to be more humanized than when it was just an avatar, and it can control the environment on Earth more freely."
"Then how can we deal with it? Not only is it extremely powerful, but it can also bring disasters to us on Earth." Ling Yao became more and more desperate the more he thought about it, and quickly ate two more bites of meat.
He doesn’t know how long he can continue eating meat like this, so he should eat more.
"Otherwise, how can it be called the end of the world?" Gu Xingxie said.
Chu Xihen asked Xie Ling, "Is there no way for you in the Ability Bureau to deal with those lion's mane jellyfish?"
That thing is in the sea, and the superpowers can deal with it, but the superpowers cannot go into the sea. Not only is the sea water icy and freezing, the key is that it contains the venom of Lion's Mane jellyfish.
Chu Xihen thought about it and decided that the only way to deal with those lion's mane jellyfish on a large scale would be to see how many thermal weapons the Bureau of Special Powers still had after the apocalypse.
"Yes, we can use deep sea mines, but because there are ice walls on the sea surface and there are poisonous liquids in the sea water, the location of the mines must be carefully calculated, and the seabed conditions must be scanned, which will take at least three to five days." Xie Ling sighed and said, "Anyway, we probably can't go back before the next instance comes, Xiao Chou deliberately stuck it in this time."
"It's so despicable!" Ling Yao sighed.
"So what are we going to do in the next few days? Camp in the snow?" Chu Xiqi asked.
Jin Hang replied: "We can't sit idle either. After Mr. Chu attacked the lion's mane jellyfish last night, they stopped expanding their sea area. We can try to intimidate them at the edge of the sea area. Although we can't kill them, we can prevent them from encroaching on our land area."
"Just throw supernatural powers into the sea? Will it work?" Yue Rujing expressed doubt.
"Come to think of it, are those ice walls the special abilities of the lion's mane jellyfish? Their destructive power seems to be stronger than that of the jellyfish themselves." Ling Yao asked curiously.
Chu Xi replied sarcastically, "What you said is nonsense, isn't it? Our superpowers are stronger than our real bodies. Without superpowers, you would freeze to death in the snow, let alone kill jellyfish."
Lingyao scratched his head, "It seems so."
After breakfast, the group walked to the edge of the sea. A new layer of ice had formed on the sea surface. The ice was filled with jellyfish carcasses that had been chopped up by Chu Xihen, like plastic bags soaked in water.
"I'll try using my supernatural powers." Ling Yao released his mental power, wanting to control a small sea monster to go to the other side of the ice wall to check on the lion's mane jellyfish. However, after searching around, he didn't find any monster.
The distance of the Lion's Mane Jellyfish was beyond his control, and he couldn't feel it either.
"This sea is so clean, there is not even a single fish." Ling Yao opened her eyes and said to Chu Xihen.
"There are so many lion's mane jellyfish in the sea, and the seawater is full of venom. What kind of aquatic creature can survive in this sea area? Think before you speak!" Chu Xiqi said, looking at him with bright eyes, "I think you are tired of being a human, how about you turn into a little tiger?"
Ling Yao quickly hid beside Chu Xihen, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Chu Xihen stood in the middle like a wooden stake. The two children began to circle around him. He lost his balance and was pulled by Ling Yao to sit down in the snow.
Even through the thick clothes, he still felt the coldness of the ice and snow.
Lou Su hurried forward to help him up, "You two go and make trouble for others. If he falls down a few more times, the hot pot he just ate will be wasted!"
"Brother Lou, Brother Chu!" When Lou Su was bending down to brush the snow off Chu Xihen's body, a shout suddenly came from behind.
