Chapter 192 Where is the Seventh Inch (13)
"Crystal, there really is a crystal."
"But this snake doesn't look like a creature from our Blue Planet."
"Mutated ones, aren't they all mutants?"
"Mutated creatures can grow crystals. I've never heard of that before."
"That can't have fallen from the sky."
"Everything in the world is interdependent and mutually exclusive. When superpowers emerge, mutated creatures will naturally appear, and the energy stones that provide superpowers will naturally appear as well."
Listening to the four of them talking in a calm tone, Brother Zhang's mouth twitched. However, he noticed that the four of them were still carrying the backpacks they came with. He immediately asked, "Are you leaving? You haven't even put down your bags yet."
Lao Gao glanced back at Brother Zhang and replied, "No, we were planning to go exchange for some contribution points. I forgot about it and just happened to hear the noise so I came over."
Hearing they had no plans to leave, Brother Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the mutant snakes approaching, he cautiously asked, "Can you help with these things? The base will compensate you according to the standard, and we'll do our best to meet any requests you have. Of course, even if we can't help, that's fine. You don't need to feel too pressured."
Brother Zhang felt that the four of them had come here temporarily to stay, and they didn't expect to encounter such a thing. Others had no obligation to do so, but he just mentioned it. What if it works out, then the safety of the base will be guaranteed. As for this, he said it very lively. After all, there are too many snakes. If they can't be solved, it can't be blamed on others.
Our abilities are limited, so we cannot force anything.
Since Brother Zhang had already spoken, they naturally wouldn't refuse since they were already trying to establish a relationship with him. Ling Jiang asked, "Brother Zhang, what are these snakes afraid of?"
Her ice ability wasn't very effective against the rabbits, so she couldn't help but worry that it wouldn't be very effective against the snakes either.
Brother Zhang clearly understood what Ling Jiang meant by this question. He said, "Your abilities are actually quite powerful. They're not very useful against rabbits simply because their fur is too thick after the mutation."
But snakes are different. They don't have thick fur, so they can be frozen with ice.
Not only that, they also obtained an important piece of information. The red crystal on the snake's head is of the fire element and is specially used to replenish energy for those with fire-type abilities.
The ice element is a blue crystal, the lightning element is a purple crystal, the water element is a white crystal, the plant element is a green crystal, and the mental power element is a transparent crystal...
Different crystals replenish the energy of different psychics and are not universal, but the effect of each crystal is excellent.
There are so many snakes at the entrance of the H City base, and there are also so many crystals. Not only can the snake meat be made into meals, but the number of crystals is also very valuable. Getting rid of these snakes is a win-win situation for the base and the four of them.
They each have their own little thoughts, but it does not hinder their cooperation with each other.
But this transparent door was still at a certain height. Lan Jin stood on the chair where the soldier who had just thrown things out had stood. After taking a look, before she could retreat, she quickly used her lightning power on the snake outside.
It is true that in this world, basically nothing is not afraid of electricity. After Lan Jin threw out a small bolt of lightning, the snake at the place where it was shocked immediately lay on the ground, twitched a few times, and then stopped moving.
Seeing that Lan Jin's trick was effective, Lao Gao immediately joined in. However, Lan Jin intentionally controlled the electricity of his supernatural power, but Lao Gao did not. With one burst of supernatural power, the snake was roasted and smelled burnt.
Ling Jiang said speechlessly, "Turn down the fire a little. Don't burn the snake. Isn't it edible? If it becomes inedible, it will be a waste of food. And the crystal stone, will it be burned? We don't know anything, so don't mess around and damage it."
Seeing these people who were obviously very strong but didn't care about the chattering made the people standing by stunned.
Is it really appropriate to look so relaxed at such a critical moment?
Brother Zhang said speechlessly: "You guys should be more vigilant after all."
Huang Jinghe didn't really think there was anything wrong. He asked, "But aren't we inside? Aren't we protected?"
That being said, you can't treat it like a joke.
But this was only superficial relief. In reality, Lan Jin had come up with a solution. She said to Ling Jiang, "Ling Jiang, can you break the ice into thin strips and nail them onto the snake's body one by one? This way, you can kill the snake while keeping it intact."
Brother Zhang immediately agreed, "It's okay to kill Qicun. No matter how it mutates, it's still just a snake."
But, Ling Jiang asked sincerely: "Where is the seven inches?"
This is really difficult for these girls.
But Brother Zhang wasn't panicking. After explaining it to Ling Jiang, he let her try it out. After confirming it was working, he said to Huang Jinghe, "You can actually use water this way, too. The temperature outside is so low right now. You can use it to freeze the water into icicles and pierce the snake's vital point."
It was obvious that the people in the base knew how to use superpowers better than them. After being taught this way, Huang Jinghe understood it immediately.
And this method does not hurt the snake and can even kill it.
The four of them worked together using their own methods, and soon all the hundreds of snakes outside were wiped out.
After the snake stopped moving, their mission was considered complete, but Lan Jin felt so exhausted. She sat on the chair she had just stepped on and said weakly, "Why do I feel a little weak?"
Brother Zhang wasn't surprised. He explained, "This is because you've overused your abilities. Even though you only used them for a short time, they lasted too long, and it really drained your energy."
This is just the case with these four people. If it were anyone else, they would have exhausted their abilities and collapsed from exhaustion. It was really beyond Brother Zhang's expectation that they could persist until all the snakes were killed.
After saying that, Brother Zhang asked the people beside him to take out a few crystals and taught them how to absorb the crystals into their bodies.
With just two crystals, the four of them regained their strength. Then the crystals in their hands lost their original luster and turned into ordinary stones like those on the roadside.
After absorbing all the energy, Lan Jin asked, "Does this crystal require contribution points to buy?"
Seeing that the four of them seemed completely clueless about this, Brother Zhang explained, "Haven't you ever used your powers before? Well, if you get crystals from outside, they're yours, but in our situation, we usually split them in half. There are some supplies and weapons for power users on the 12th floor above the lobby. If you need them, I'll take you there."
The four of them were pleasantly surprised that it was effortless.
"OK."
