Chapter 10: Crack



Fan Xin said slowly in her rough, unpleasant voice, "Of course not. I'm happy to tell you."

She crossed her legs, leaned against the back of the chair, and clasped her fingers together, looking at Jiang Hao with a smile: "But I need to collect a little bit of compensation."

Jiang Hao looked into Fan Xin's eyes. This person was clearly smiling, but for some reason he felt a little confused.

"Blood?" Jiang Hao asked.

Fan Xin nodded: "Yes."

Jiang Hao looked at Fan Xin deeply, and after thinking for a few seconds, he asked, "How much do you want?"

Fan Xin lowered her eyes, looked at her slender white fingertips, and tilted her head: "Well, the use of crystal cores will definitely be exposed in the future. Even if I don't tell you, you will know it later."

This is something everyone knows.

Fan Xin narrowed her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth: "However, the sooner someone knows, the more powerful they will be. What do you think?"

Jiang Hao's eyes flashed, and he stared calmly into Fan Xin's eyes: "You are right."

Fan Xin smiled and said, "Then I'll take 300ml of blood from each of you as compensation. Isn't that too much?"

Including Jiang Hao, there are a total of twenty-two people here. If each person collects 300ml of blood, Fan Xin can harvest 6,600ml of blood.

In fact, in terms of the use of the crystal core, Fan Xin lost 6600ml of blood.

However, although she knew that human physique had evolved after the apocalypse and that even if 400ml or even more was extracted, nothing would happen, these people did not know.

If Fan Xin proposed 400ml per person, Jiang Hao would definitely refuse.

The secret of the crystal core was not a problem for Fan Xin at all. To her, blood was more valuable, so she directly quoted a price of 300ml.

Although Jiang Hao knew that Fan Xin's request was definitely not low, he did not expect her to draw so much blood.

He frowned: "What do you want so much blood for?"

Fan Xin looked at Jiang Hao, her lips curled up. "This question requires extra compensation. Are you sure you want to ask?"

That smile is very much like that of a capitalist.

Jiang Hao choked.

The fact that Fan Xin could walk alone in the doomsday was enough to prove how powerful he was. Moreover, he had witnessed with his own eyes how Fan Xin easily killed zombies.

Even if the zombies are slow, they are still very dangerous when there are too many of them.

Jiang Hao thought for a while and nodded, "Okay."

Fan Xin took out a blood bag and a blood collection needle from her backpack: "Let's get started."

Jiang Hao stretched out his hand, placed it on the table between them, and looked at Fan Xin: "I'll go first."

Fan Xin moved slowly and unhurriedly, unplugged the needle, held Jiang Hao's arm with one hand, and neatly inserted the needle into the blood vessel to draw blood.

The weather was very hot during the day and the air conditioner was of no use. However, when Fan Xin's fingers fell on Jiang Hao's arm, the cool feeling made him shiver.

Jiang Hao couldn't help but look at Fan Xin's hands twice more. His hands were too cold. The weather was so hot during the day, and his hands were cold?

It's icy and cool, and feels like ice cream just taken out of the refrigerator, which is very comfortable.

This person draws so much blood, could he be a vampire?

The end of the world has come and zombies have appeared. If vampires really exist, it doesn’t seem so incredible.

Moreover, this person's skin was extremely pale, very similar to the legendary vampire. The only difference was that vampires were afraid of sunlight, but this person could still walk around in such a bright sun.

He didn't think of Fan Xin as a zombie. After all, everyone could see what zombies looked like during this period. They were a group of irrational monsters.

Compared to zombies, vampires are obviously more realistic.

The 300ml blood bag was quickly drawn. Fan Xin pulled out the needle quickly and put the blood bag into his backpack.

When Fan Xin's cold hand withdrew from his arm, Jiang Hao couldn't help but smack his lips, feeling a little reluctant.

I wonder if his body is also this cool? If he were to be completely cool, it would be comfortable to just hug him in such hot weather.

Fan Xin went to draw blood from other people. Wen Shuqi cautiously approached Jiang Hao and whispered, "Brother Hao, does he really know how to use this thing? What if it doesn't work, or he doesn't know how to use it at all?"

Jiang Hao released his hand that was pressing on the needle hole. After a while, the needle hole had healed and no more bleeding occurred. His body's healing ability was stronger than before the end of the world.

He glanced in Fan Xin's direction, laughed, and said nothing.

Fan Xin drew blood very quickly. She inserted the needle quickly, accurately and fiercely. The needle was inserted before the person could even feel it. The blood flowed into the blood bag through the tube.

At this time, she was preparing to draw blood from a girl.

The girl was a little scared. She glanced at Jiang Hao and bit her lip and said, "But, can you be a little gentler?"

Fan Xin glanced at her and nodded lightly.

She reached out and pulled the girl's arm over, and in front of the girl's frightened eyes, she inserted the needle directly.

"Your hands are so cold." The girl's attention was not on the acupuncture at all. The moment Fan Xin held her hand, she felt a chill.

How should I describe that feeling? It's as comfortable as eating a bite of ice in the hot summer.

Fan Xin hummed: "It's a physical problem."

In a sense, zombies can be said to be dead people, and their bodies certainly have no temperature. However, she possesses ice-related abilities, and although they have not been activated yet, her body temperature is still lower than that of other zombies.

She is only one level away from unleashing her supernatural powers.

The girl blinked and cautiously moved a little closer to Fan Xin. As expected, when she was close to him, she could feel the cool air, just like an air conditioner emitting a hint of coolness.

She couldn't help but squint her eyes, and then she heard Fan Xin say lightly: "Okay."

When the girl opened her eyes, she saw that Fan Xin had already pulled out the needle and asked her to hold the needle hole herself.

She said with some regret: "So soon?"

Fan Xin glanced at the girl, and that look made the girl feel particularly embarrassed. Fortunately, Fan Xin didn't say anything, but just raised the blood bag: "300 milliliters, enough."

Seeing Fan Xin turn around and draw other people's blood, the girl didn't want to leave. She felt that Fan Xin was like a human air conditioner, and it was particularly cool and comfortable to stay next to him.

It took Fan Xin a long time to draw blood from twenty-two people, and all the blood bags were placed in his backpack.

Jiang Hao glanced at Fan Xin's backpack thoughtfully, a smile on his face: "Can you tell me now?"

Fan Xin nonchalantly zipped up her backpack and slung it on her back. "Burning it with fire for ten minutes will completely eliminate any remaining residue on the crystal core, and then you can eat it directly."

"Remember to burn it with firewood. A psychic's flame will also work. As long as the flame temperature reaches over 1000°C, it will eliminate the remaining residue."

Superpowers—

Jiang Hao looked at Fan Xin deeply and asked someone to light the fire.

There is a gas stove in the kitchen on the second floor. The temperature of the gas stove can reach 1650℃-1700℃, which can meet the standards mentioned by Fan Xin.

Ten minutes later, the burned crystal core became even more crystal clear and beautiful like a gem.

Jiang Hao picked up the crystal core, looked at it, and then handed it to Fan Xin: "You eat it."

Fan Xin glanced at Jiang Hao, picked up the crystal core and ate it.

Seeing Fan Xin eat it without hesitation, Jiang Hao felt relieved and a smile appeared in his eyes. He waved his hand and said, "Burn all the crystal cores."

Seeing this, Fan Xin turned around and left. Jiang Hao and the others had no intention of stopping Fan Xin.

After she left the cafeteria, she waited on the playground. Soon, many people from the dormitory wanted to trade with her, so Fan Xin went to the dormitory.

After coming out of the dormitory, she collected another 10,600 ml of blood.

Back at the temporary residence, Fan Xin watered the newly planted saplings until they grew up. The two huge white trees stood out in the space.

Fan Xin observed the first tree and found that among the dense leaves, there were small flowers thinner than cicada wings. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't find them at all.

Because of what attracted him last time, Fan Xin's consciousness intentionally stayed away from the two trees.

However, she discovered that among the leaves of the first tree, there were tiny transparent flowers. The stamens were as small as a needle tip, and the petals were as thin as a cicada's wings. They could not be seen at all without careful observation.

Fan Xin controlled her consciousness and approached the transparent little flower carefully. In an instant, she felt a powerful life force and a strong energy fluctuation.

The moment he felt attracted, Fan Xin immediately regained consciousness.

She sat cross-legged on the ground, thinking about the big white tree in the space. It has bloomed now, so the next step should be to bear fruit, right?

Whether it will bear fruit or not, we will have to wait and see.

Fan Xin was thinking about where to go next.

She definitely couldn't stay in Pingchang County anymore. Qin Yu was here, and she didn't want to have any contact with Qin Yu, at least not for now.

If she stayed in Pingchang County, she would meet Qin Yu sooner or later.

I just don’t know, without her in this life, whether Qin Yu will join another base or build a base like in the previous life.

After the end of the world, there are countless bases of all sizes.

In her previous life, Fan Xin knew about quite a few bases, but after much thought, she still wanted to go to a place with better security, and not too far from City D.

Then, Fan Xin thought of the Dawn Base.

In the city center of S City, a safe zone was established at the beginning of the apocalypse, and later became the Dawn Base.

The security in the Dawn Base is very good. The base commander has formulated relevant post-apocalyptic laws, so that the base is not as chaotic as other bases.

In fact, in the previous life, if Fan Xin had not been a zombie, she and Qin Yu would not have established a base, but would have joined the Dawn Base.

Fan Xin sighed.

Judging from the time, the safe zone in S City has probably been established by now.

Suddenly, Fan Xin smelled a hint of blood.

The smell of blood was not very pleasant, and it did not have the sweetness of human blood, which made Fan Xin frown.

The smell became stronger and stronger, and seemed to be very close to her.

Fan Xin lowered his head and saw that the skin on the back of his hand was cracked, and blood was seeping out bit by bit from the tiny cracks.

She raised her hand and looked at her palm, which was also covered with cracks, like the cracks in the dried-out land.
