Ye Xiao only said this lightly, and the middle-aged woman was inexplicably frightened. She wanted to say something more, but when she met Ye Xiao's eyes, she couldn't say anything.
It was a feeling that made people feel that there was no room for negotiation.
Lin Tantan felt half of his body numb after Ye Xiao pressed his shoulder like this.
My mind is full of my idol. Is he defending me? Is he standing up for me? Ahhh, my idol is so handsome, so handsome, so handsome!
By the time she finished her "ah ah" thoughts, the middle-aged woman had already said she wanted to go home to pack her things, but she was worried about encountering danger and needed someone to accompany her. Several elderly people also said they didn't want to leave because their children had not returned yet and they were afraid that if they left, their children would not be able to find them when they returned.
Ye Xiao and his team sent these people back to their homes and searched the entire villa area. They killed any zombies they encountered and closed the gates entering and exiting the villa area.
This way, at least the villa area is safe for the time being, but it is hard to say whether zombies will learn to climb walls or even fly in large numbers in the future. In short, it is very dangerous to stay, and it may not be safe to follow. It is up to you to decide whether to stay or go.
In fact, this villa area is far away from the city center, the population nearby is not large, and the walls are built high and strong. It is a good place, but Ye Xiao and his team have decided to use the office building in the suburbs as a temporary base camp. They are short of manpower, and the closed office building is easier to defend than the villa area.
There were also other families in the villa area who came out to ask for help when they saw Ye Xiao and his friends, hoping to follow him. Ye Xiao agreed to take them away, but they had to obey his orders, and the young and middle-aged men had to contribute. Sorry, those who waved money and asked them to take them somewhere were all eliminated.
In the end, more than 30 people were willing to follow, including several young and middle-aged people. Because there were so many extra people, the departure time had to be delayed. Ye Xiao simply gathered these people together and assigned them tasks - some people were led by Mei Baisheng and others to use the existing tools and materials to make some roadblocks, which was also a guarantee for those who stayed behind. Others went to collect weapons, and he personally took the remaining three people with good driving skills to the garage to pick out cars.
Lin Tan Tan followed him around eagerly and asked, "Can you drive?"
"Yes, we cleared the roadblocks when we came here." Ye Xiao said. Knowing that there are mostly elderly people and children here, they never thought of asking them to walk there on foot. When planning the route, they chose a road that can be driven.
The cars in this villa area were mostly luxury cars. They were impressive and had good performance, but Ye Xiao was dissatisfied with their low chassis. In the end, he chose two seven-seater commercial vehicles that the owner would be traveling with. These vehicles could squeeze in more than a dozen people. Then, he chose a cold chain truck for transporting seafood. It was small to medium-sized, but it could also fit quite a few people. Finally, he chose a pickup truck.
Including those in the Xu family villa, there are more than 40 people in total. We have to squeeze in like this. If there are more cars, we won’t be able to handle them all.
After the car drove out, Ye Xiao assigned new tasks to the three drivers. He gave each of them a hammer or an iron rod and a pair of plastic gloves, and asked them to smash the zombies' heads.
"Knock, smash the head?" Two of the younger ones looked as if they had seen a ghost.
Ye Xiao said, "When we get on the road later, all three of you will have to drive. If you encounter a zombie and it asks you to ram it, you have to step on the gas and ram it. Now practice your courage first."
"Are you still going to hit zombies?" The two men began to back off, but the older one picked up a hammer without saying anything. His name was Huang Jianquan. It was said that the cold chain truck belonged to him. He came here to deliver seafood and happened to encounter people turning into zombies. He hid in his car and escaped.
A man in his thirties who has been struggling in society for half his life has a much better ability to adapt than the two young men. He knows that the world has changed, but no one knows what the future will be like. The men with guns today are obviously not ordinary people. This is an opportunity for him. They are short of manpower, and if he performs well, he may be valued.
When looking for a job, you should look for a good and reliable company. Now that the world is in chaos, you naturally need to find a reliable boss.
These people were willing to bring along such a group of elderly, weak, women, and children. They were obviously not bad people. They must have good hearts and must have some pretty impressive backgrounds...
The more Huang Jianquan thought about it, the more he wanted to perform well, so he picked up the hammer and started working.
When Ye Xiao and his men fought the zombies, they shot at their heads. Almost all of their heads were blown off. Huang Jianquan endured the fear and discomfort, and with two hits, he smashed the monster-like head open.
Ye Xiao encouraged: "That's it. Be careful not to let anything on the zombie splash onto your skin. There's something in the skull. Pick it out."
Huang Jianquan followed the instructions and picked out a brown object: "What is this?"
Ye Xiao said: "There is a special energy in it, and it is currently estimated to be related to super powers."
"Super, superpower?"
Ye Xiao sent out a wind blade at him, cutting off the head of a zombie next to him.
Not only Huang Jianquan, but also the two young men and some other people exclaimed. No one saw clearly how Ye Xiao did it, but they knew that it was a superpower. They immediately admired him and obeyed him more. The two young men and several onlookers also started to hit their heads enthusiastically.
Ye Xiao told them that the use of this thing in the zombies' brains has not been figured out yet, so everyone should not try it rashly and give him whatever they dig out.
Originally, these zombies were killed by the four of them, so there was nothing to say about them owning the crystal cores.
Of course, there will definitely be people who secretly hide some, but Ye Xiao doesn't care. He doesn't have many requirements for these people. As long as they are obedient and can live safely along the way, that's enough.
Then he turned around and met a pair of sparkling eyes. Lin Tantan's admiration was almost overflowing from his eyes: "How do you know that zombies have that kind of thing in their heads, and how do you know it's related to, uh, superpowers?"
Ye Xiaoting wanted to say, it was from your perspective.
But it seems a bit inappropriate to say to a girl, "I've been observing you for a long time through the surveillance camera"?
He hesitated: "I..."
"Oh, my question is in vain. Anyone can figure it out by just looking at it and thinking about it more." Lin Tan was surprised that Ye Xiao actually knew that the crystal core should not be tried lightly. He was sharp and cautious. Ahhh, he is indeed a strong man!
She was praising her idol to the skies in her heart, not noticing Ye Xiao's odd expression. She gestured for him to move aside, "Well, I also found that thing, and I have a little idea on how to use it. Do you want to hear it?"
Even Huang Jianquan knew he had to perform well, so of course she couldn't fall behind!
And we must let Ye Xiao understand the crystal core as soon as possible!
Ye Xiao's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked around: "Let's find a place to talk."
Then they went to the Xu family villa.
At this moment, there was only a nanny and a little girl in the Xu family villa. Mr. and Mrs. Xu had gone to other people's homes to help.
The two of them sat in the living room, and Lin Tan Tan took out all his savings as if they were treasures.
One transparent element, one black element, one dark element, one purple element, and one green element. There were originally two wood elements and one gold element, but they were all absorbed by her.
These were all the results she had achieved since she came here yesterday, seven in total. She felt that she had a good harvest, after all, she didn't go there specifically to collect crystal cores.
Who would have thought that just as this thought flashed through his mind, Ye Xiao went to get a bag. When he opened it, he was almost blinded by the red, yellow, purple and green beads inside. There must be one or two hundred of them in all kinds of colors!
Ye Xiao said that they dug this up on the way here last night.
I dug it up by chance.
smoothly……
Lin Tan Tan covered his chest.
Ye Xiao looked at her and asked what was wrong.
Lin Tantan said, "It's okay, just a little liver pain."
Ye Xiao: “…”
Ye Xiao picked out ten crystal cores and laid them out on the table one by one: "I've observed that these things are roughly these ten colors."
The ten on the table are gold, green, blue, red, brown, cyan, purple, white, black, and transparent and colorless.
They correspond to the ten series of superpowers, namely gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, ice, darkness and nothingness. These are basically the mainstream superpowers in the end times. The first nine series of superpowers are easy to understand, and some slightly strange mutant superpowers can basically be classified into these nine categories.
In fact, "Wuxi" cannot be considered a kind of superpower, but a type of superpower. It includes time, space, sound waves, mirror images, perspective, illusions and other invisible and colorless superpowers without specific physical manifestations, and each one is particularly niche.
Of course, Lin Tantan couldn't tell all these things to Ye Xiao directly. In fact, people here could slowly figure them out without Lin Tantan telling them. Lin Tantan went straight to the stage to share his experience.
He picked out the gold and wood crystal cores and said, "I've tried it. I can absorb the energy of these two types, but not the other colors. I also tried to absorb other energies, but that felt very dangerous, so I stopped immediately."
It is very dangerous for a psychic to absorb the wrong energy. At the very least, they will be injured and their psychic powers will be destroyed. At worst, they will explode and die, or even turn into a zombie. The essence of zombies and psychics is that they have been transformed by this special energy, but the direction of transformation is completely opposite. It is impossible to stop absorbing the wrong energy and remain unscathed as Lin Tantan said.
She remembered that there seemed to be unofficial historical records that Ye Xiao had suffered a loss in the crystal core at the beginning. That was because Mei Baisheng had died. Ye Xiao was probably stimulated by this incident and wanted to become stronger, so he cooperated with some scientist or someone else to explore different types of crystal cores with his wind-based abilities. Fortunately, he was lucky and was only slightly injured in the end.
In fact, in the early days of the apocalypse, too many people with special abilities were wasted because they did not understand the crystal core.
She stared at Ye Xiao closely, hoping that he could understand what she meant and not make the attempt to cross the river by feeling the stones.
Ye Xiao frowned slightly: "You...you'd better not make such dangerous attempts in the future."
Lin Tan Tan: “…” He was educated in return.
Well, at least it proves he listened.
Ye Xiao continued, "You mean, you can absorb two colors?"
"Yeah." Lin Tantan felt a surge of excitement when he heard this, but nodded reservedly. Then he stretched out his hands, with golden light emanating from his right hand and a shimmering green light from his left. "I have two superpowers."
She didn't dare to say that she had five superpowers, for fear of scaring people. In the apocalypse, people with dual superpowers still existed, but there were no more. Having all five powers was simply a fantasy.
Ye Xiao didn't have any special expression, but his eyes were extremely bright and focused. He had long wanted to find someone with super powers to talk to, but he didn't expect that the first person he met had two super powers. What touched him most was that Lin Tantan could share his experience and abilities so unreservedly.
He took a deep breath and was about to express his sincerity when he saw the golden light in Lin Tantan's right hand condense into a thin golden needle, which pierced through the thick glass coffee table, leaving a smooth and round hole, and the green light in his left hand swirled and turned into a thin rope.
Lin Tan looked around, but couldn't find any place to tie him up, so he wrapped his arms around Ye Xiao's wrists that were on the coffee table and pulled them towards her.
He is quite strong.
Ye Xiao looked up in surprise, and saw that the reserved look on the girl opposite had long been gone, and her face was full of joy, as if it was written on her face: I'm awesome, come on and praise me, come on and praise me!
