In just two days, Lin Dan absorbed tens of thousands of crystal cores. There were still a lot of crystal cores left, which she could absorb completely, but she did not intend to use them. Somehow, she seemed to have found a way to get rid of the crystal core training, which was to constantly overdraw her mental strength, let herself linger on the edge of death, and then break the limit.
Sometimes, she couldn't help but wonder whether the doctor's practice method was the same as hers, but she shook her head and smiled. I'm afraid even the doctor himself doesn't know where his limit is, so how can we talk about breaking it? The battle to hunt down the Zombie King should have been earth-shattering, but he was only away for a dozen minutes and everything ended quietly. When he came back, his hair wasn't even messy, let alone injured, as if he had just gone out for a walk.
However, Lin Dan would not think that he was really not hurt. His mysophobia was so severe that it was more painful for him to walk through the battlefield covered with rotten blood and broken limbs to find the Zombie King than to be skinned alive with a knife. During the two days of recuperation, Lin Dan had deliberately inquired about the doctor's news and learned that he had stayed in the bathroom for several hours after returning and almost fainted due to dehydration. This shows how deep the psychological trauma he had left.
However, the people in this city don’t know who really saved them. Seeing the endless stream of people coming to visit him and listening to their sincere praises, Lin Dan felt guilty, but he could not speak out about the doctor's achievements.
On this day, her mental strength was finally fully restored and greatly enhanced. She didn't know what effect it would have when used in battle. When she was secretly thinking about whether to leave the base to go outside for training, Yang Huatong walked into the living room with a bitter face and said, "Lin Dan, are you okay? Look, the zombie tide has subsided. What should we do with the insects and plants outside?"
Lin Dan slapped his forehead and then remembered the mess outside the city wall. If she left like this, the insect swarms and mutated plants would really crawl into the base and cause another catastrophic disaster if no one dealt with them.
"Come on, I'll go take a look." She stood up and left.
Nie Ting followed her carrying a women's coat.
Before the two of them got close, they heard people on the city wall cheering: "Lin Dan is here!"
"It's okay, it's okay, Lin Dan will definitely have a way!"
“Everyone, step aside and let Lin Dan come over! Just because we can’t handle it doesn’t mean she can’t.”
"Of course! She was the one who suggested that we use mutant plants to fight zombies. Otherwise, our base would have ceased to exist long ago."
The city walls were filled with soldiers and people with special abilities, and everyone's face looked more surprised than the other. There were also a few people who were looking down at the city wall, then suddenly retracted their necks, looking as if they were still frightened.
"Sister Lin, you are finally here! If you didn't come, these mutated plants would rebel!" Luo Yuheng shouted loudly.
Lin Dan quickly walked to the city wall and looked down, frowning. Those mutated plants had fed on the flesh and blood of the zombies and had now grown very strong. The vines were like giant snakes, rolling and climbing under the city walls, almost trying to eat people. Fortunately, there is also competition between the mutated plants, especially when so many advanced varieties are gathered together, it becomes even more difficult to distinguish them. They are mixed together in groups, killing each other, competing for the soil and nutrients to take root, trying to dominate the area.
Dense swarms of insects crawled back and forth among the stems and leaves of the mutated plants, looking for a comfortable home. Compared to the damp and cold caves, they naturally prefer to live in the treetops. In just two days, a terrifying ecosystem was formed, and humans have gone from being the most intelligent creatures to being at the bottom of the food chain. If these insects and plants cannot be removed, Base No. 1 will still not escape the fate of destruction.
Several fire-type psychics were throwing fireballs down, but they couldn't change the situation at all. The vines, as flexible as a group of snakes, quickly embraced the blazing flames and extinguished them in the damp, cold soil full of pus and blood.
They are all high-level, highly intelligent mutant plants. After several rounds of killing each other, those who survived are all overlords. How could they be afraid of just a few fireballs? Several fire-type mutants failed to succeed and were almost swept away by the suddenly growing vines. They were so scared that their faces turned pale.
"Move away from here, it's dangerous." Lin Dan supported one of them and gave careful instructions.
"Okay, Sister Lin, have you had a good rest?" Several fire-type ability users patted their chests with lingering fear.
"Almost there." Lin Dan stepped onto the guardrail and squinted at the bottom.
"Sister Lin, please be careful. Some mutant plants are very aggressive and will extend their vines to roll people down!" A psychic just opened his mouth to remind her, and saw Lin Dan being rolled down by a thick vine that suddenly climbed up the city wall and pulled into layers of green leaves.
"Sister Lin!" Everyone exclaimed in unison, then quickly ran to the wall to check, but saw nothing. They couldn't help but think of the zombies that were chopped into pieces by the mutated plants, and their hearts began to beat wildly.
However, the next second, a cloud of light green smoke rose from the thick leaves, dispersing the swarms of insects. They screamed in fear and then fled in all directions. A large group of killer bees swept into the air and flew quickly towards the horizon.
As the insect tide retreated, a large area of mutated plants began to wither with the point where Lin Dan fell as the center. The originally thick vines turned into piles of intertwined firewood in the blink of an eye, which would be crushed to pieces with just a slight pinch. When the withered yellow leaves collapsed, everyone discovered that Lin Dan was standing there steadily, without a single scar on his body, and he was not torn into pieces. Around her were floating water balls of some dark green or some light green. There was no doubt that they were the water she had extracted from the stems of the mutated plants. Once a plant loses too much water, even the strongest one will be reduced to a handful of dry firewood.
"Help me find some containers. I want to collect the juice." Lin Dan raised his head and looked at the people on the city wall.
Yang Huatong finally came to his senses and hurriedly urged: "What are you still standing there for? Go find the jar!"
"We still need to find a sack." Lin Dan kicked away the dead branches and leaves under his feet and said calmly, "It's time to harvest our spoils."
Yang Huatong's pupils shrank slightly, and he actually felt a little dazed. Nie Ting and Luo Yuheng looked closely and their hearts almost jumped out of their chests. Lin Dan saw a pile of colorful crystal cores under his feet, which were faintly twinkling with starlight, like the Milky Way in the sky pouring down, which was magnificent. The originally hellish battlefield has now turned into a dreamlike paradise, where countless treasures are hidden waiting for everyone to dig.
There was a gulp sound; that was the sound of Yang Huatong swallowing his saliva.
"Wow, wow, wow! Did I see it right?" A person with special abilities couldn't even speak clearly.
"You're not mistaken, there are crystal cores all underneath!"
Everyone was stunned, their blood was boiling and their throats were blocked. Such a scene only appears in dreams, which is more incredible than fairy tales!
"Ahem, go get the sacks, take as many as you can!" After a long pause, Yang Huatong spoke in a dry voice.
Everyone dispersed, some went to look for sacks, some went to look for containers, and some called their comrades who were on rest so that they could appreciate the wonder before them. Wandering in the ocean of crystal cores, this is probably everyone’s ultimate dream, right?
Nie Ting stood still and realized that the mutated plants would be drained of their juice and turned into dead wood before they could even touch Lin Dan. Only then did he feel relieved. He jumped down carrying a huge water bottle to help Lin Dan collect the essence, but ignored the crystal core under his feet. Anyway, these things will be turned over to the base and then distributed according to military merit, so he will not be left out.
"Go pick up the crystal cores, don't worry about me." Lin Dan waved his hand. His expression seemed cold, but his words were full of kindness.
Nie Ting lowered his eyelids and shook his head, saying, "I'll stay with you. If there are any mutant plants hidden underground, I can at least help you block them."
"No, they can't escape my monitoring." Lin Dan's lips curled slightly with a firm smile. After a great battle, her mental strength increased by several levels. With just a slight thought, she could control the water within a radius of 100 miles. The denser the mutated plants grow, the more water they lock in, making them easier to deal with.
Nie Ting just nodded and did not leave.
Lin Dan urged him several times, and seeing that he really had no interest in the crystal core, he began to clear out the mutated plants in the corners, fearing that any would slip through the net. After all the dead branches, leaves, corpses and blood were burned away, the crystal cores that covered the ground had nowhere to hide. When the sunlight shone on them, they shone with dazzling light, red, blue, green, yellow, and everything else.
Wind-type and water-type mutants released wind dragons and water dragons one after another, rolled up the crystal cores and poured them into sacks. Later, when the sacks could no longer hold the loot, the military brought in trucks and loaded their huge cargo beds with the spoils. Several younger psychics stood in the carriage, raised their hands and shouted, "Come on, smash me to death with your crystal core!"
As expected, several wind-type mutants rolled up the crystal cores and smashed them on the head, saying with a smile: "Okay, I'll grant your wish today!"
Several teenagers were knocked dizzy and begged for mercy. Everyone laughed as they watched them crawl out of the crystal core pile in a panic. Who could have thought that after a battle of attack and defense, the base not only did not collapse, but also achieved such a huge turnaround. With these crystal cores, Base No. 1 leapt from the poorest base to the richest base. They can continuously provide training resources for the psychics and cultivate countless masters in the shortest time. These rich crystal core reserves will attract more psychics to the base.
It won’t be long before Base No. 1, which was originally short of talent, will become a paradise that all survivors flock to. By then, even if Jiang Jingbo and his subordinates wanted to come back, there would be no place for them here.
