"No, I still have to go and check." After thinking for a moment, Zhao Yunlong was still not entirely at ease.
"Brother Long, wait a minute." He Chao quickly turned around and grabbed him.
Jiang Ling also looked outside at this moment, "What is this black thing?"
“I just tested it with my ice-based abilities. This thing explodes. It seems to be a special kind of ability, and the energy is quite powerful. If you open the door, we might all be knocked unconscious.”
Zhao Yunlong fell completely silent.
Who exactly is this person?
“If he were an enemy, he could have easily killed us just now,” Jiang Ling analyzed calmly.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yunlong and He Chao gradually calmed down.
"Yeah, Brother Long, from what he just said, he meant he was going to help Xiao Xi, right?"
This person is a friend, not an enemy.
...
Lin Xi, in the basement, felt like she had suffered a severe mental blow.
Most of the zombies in front of us are quite young, probably still in school, but that's not the point.
The main point is that these little creatures inside are actually dancing!
It's the kind of movie where demons run rampant, like a horror movie!
And judging from their expressions, they seem to be quite addicted and unable to extricate themselves.
Lin Xi punched the nearest mid-level zombie, which was indeed very angry.
However, before he could react, Lin Xi immediately used her supernatural power to control him.
Several nearby zombies noticed the disturbance and suddenly stopped waving their arms and legs. They slowly turned their heads to look at Lin Xi with cold and ruthless eyes.
Then launch an attack simultaneously.
Lin Xi controlled one more zombie, then stepped forward to another and quickly launched an attack.
This is one of the great benefits she gained after being infected with the zombie virus.
Although the system says her limb level is equivalent to a mid-level zombie, in actual combat, other mid-level zombies are not as fast as her, which becomes a major advantage for her.
With the added boost of her Level 3 Soul Searching ability, she is almost impossible to get injured, because she can see every move her opponent makes.
After dealing with two mid-level zombies, several zombies a little further away were suddenly injured by an unknown force.
Seeing the familiar energy fluctuations, Lin Xi turned around in surprise.
Why are you here?
"It's a bit boring being alone." Jiang Chuan gripped his long sword, his expression still blank.
Before Lin Xi could ask any more questions, Jiang Chuan had already rushed into the horde of zombies.
Lin Xi noticed that he had made a lot of progress.
Previously, this longsword was merely an auxiliary tool for receiving supernatural abilities in his hands, but now, it has truly become a weapon, taking down two zombies in succession.
Seemingly sensing Lin Xi's gaze, he paused slightly and explained, "Later, I practiced some movement techniques and swordsmanship."
"You're really amazing now," Lin Xi praised sincerely.
"Not bad, wanna have a match sometime?"
Lin Xi immediately pretended to be dead and threw herself back into the battle.
I really can't figure out if there's anything else going on in his little head besides fighting.
With Jiang Chuan's help, the cleanup process was much faster.
[Task completed, reward 200 points.]
Lin Xi picked up the crystal core and glanced at the speaker that made the sound with some disdain.
As if by telepathy, Jiang Chuan immediately swung his knife and blew up the noisy thing.
"You're saying that digging a basement in this desolate place is against the rules, right?"
"have no idea."
Lin Xi hesitated for a moment, then decided to go out first to avoid worrying Brother Long and the others.
Seeing the black elemental clusters surrounding the car, Lin Xi looked at the culprit speechlessly, "Brother, what are you doing? These are all my friends."
Jiang Chuan crossed his arms and said, "I know."
"You knew?" Lin Xi was starting to doubt herself. When had she told Jiang Chuan this? She didn't remember. "You know he's my friend, and you're still scaring them?"
“Him,” Jiang Chuan pointed to Zhao Yunlong, “wanted to get off the bus to find you, but you know it wouldn’t do you any good if he went.”
Lin Xi: ...
He couldn't refute this reason.
But there was one more thing she was curious about: "How did you know they were my friends?"
"When you destroyed the last zombie hideout, I saw you get into their car, chatting and laughing."
Lin Xi's face darkened; she hadn't even noticed! The sound of the car starting probably interfered with her hearing.
"You arrived back then, why didn't you say a word?"
"I also had a mission at the time, and of course the mission was more important."
“Okay, what you said is very much in line with your personality, I accept it.” Lin Xi nodded, but then changed the subject, “Why are you here? Don’t tell me it’s a coincidence.”
“I’ve come to find you,” Jiang Chuan said truthfully.
Lin Xi was taken aback. "What do you want with me? Didn't you successfully level up too? You can act on your own now."
Jiang Chuan asked in confusion, "We're friends, do we need any reason to do missions together?"
Lin Xi sighed, "My goals are different from yours."
"I've heard Chen Jin mention it," Jiang Chuan said nonchalantly. "So what? How will it conflict with my mission?"
Lin Xi was stumped by the question. "It doesn't seem like that."
"That's it. On the contrary, I can help you."
The dark elemental ability was quietly removed.
When Zhao Yunlong and his men got out of the car, they still looked at Jiang Chuan with some apprehension in their eyes.
"Let me introduce you. This is my teammate from the Wind Eagle Squad, Jiang Chuan, a dark element ability user."
Brother Long finally nodded reluctantly, "Hello."
"Jiang Chuan, this is Zhao Yunlong. You can call him Brother Long, just like I do."
"Brother Long."
“That’s He Chao over there. He’s about your age.”
"This is Sister Ling. They are all very important people to me."
Jiang Chuan shook hands and greeted them one by one.
However, when Lin Xi mentioned his special ability, a surge of emotion welled up in the hearts of the group.
After the explanation, He Chao couldn't help but ask, "Is the dark element ability the black energy clusters we just saw floating outside the car?"
"Yes." Jiang Chuan replied sparingly.
"That's amazing, I've never heard of it before."
Lin Xi explained, "This is a special mutated ability, just like your ice-type ability, neither of which are within the Five Elements."
He Chao looked on with envy, "But his sounds even more impressive."
Hearing his words, Lin Xi smiled, "If you practice, you can be just as good in the future."
"Wow, Xiao Xi, you've changed! You've actually started making empty promises to me." He Chao's tone was exaggerated and had a strangely funny quality, which made everyone laugh.
"Mission accomplished! Let's go back and have a big meal," Lin Xi suggested. "It'll also be a good opportunity to properly welcome our new friends who have come from afar."
"OK!"
"Hey Chao, didn't you say you wanted to eat seafood last time? Do you have any options in the safe zone?"
"Huh? That's ridiculously expensive..."
"It's alright, I'm a crystal core tycoon now, it's on me!" Lin Xi waved his hand generously!
