Ye Zhi's voice came through the walkie-talkie, her childlike voice filled with a coldness that didn't match her age, "The crystal core is something you should give me, your life is not my concern, you idiot."
Upon hearing the reply from the other end of the walkie-talkie, Gao Xin's face immediately darkened, as if someone were draining his life force.
He lowered his head, remained silent, and then let out a chilling laugh, "Hehehe."
The laughter lasted for about three minutes, then Gao Xin raised his head, his face expressionless, and said, "Fine, the crystal cores are yours, but I want to personally deliver them to you."
Ye Zhi, inside the control room of the Ye family villa, smiled. "This idiot's come looking for a beating."
Just as she was about to agree, Ye Zhi suddenly remembered that she wasn't alone. She turned around and looked at the group behind her, asking for their opinions with her eyes.
Grandpa Song and the others naturally agreed. After consuming a large number of crystal cores, they not only regained their previous memories, but they are now incredibly strong!
Grandpa Song and others, who already had high levels of superpowers, have become level five superpower users, while Lu Ben and Zhang Dongliang have become level four superpower users.
"Idiot, I agree." Ye Zhi gave Gao Xin her final answer, then hung up.
Despite being called an idiot several times, Gao Xin remained expressionless, staring straight at Chen Yunhao. "The crystal core is in the warehouse of my villa."
When Chen Yunhao met Gao Xin's gaze, he subconsciously frowned. He had seen this kind of look far too many times—calm yet ruthless enough to destroy the world.
"Oh," Chen Yunhao said coldly.
It seems he needs to warn Uncle Song and the others to be careful of Gao Xin. If all else fails, he will escort him.
A military armored vehicle and a truck bearing the Victory Base insignia drove out of the gates of Victory Base, and a pair of black gloves were thrown out of the driver's side window of the armored vehicle.
Jin Xiaoli was in charge of driving the armored vehicle, while Chen Yunhao and Tang Xubai sat in the back seat watching over Gao Xin, who was tied up. Both of them held guns, with the muzzles pointed at Gao Xin's temples and the back of his head. If Gao Xin showed any abnormality, they would kill him on the spot.
Through the slowly rising car window, Chen Yunhao saw the gloves discarded in the snow, and a ruthless smile appeared on his lips.
Some people just don't know how to seize opportunities.
The vehicle drove to a point ten kilometers away from the Victory Base. Upon hearing the roar of the vehicle, the zombies wandering around the area howled and followed behind it with unsteady steps.
As Jin Xiaoli listened to the eerie zombie cries coming from outside the car, his limbs went weak, but as the driver, he still had to drive despite his weak limbs.
Jin Xiaoli looked at Chen Yunhao through the rearview mirror, his voice trembling, "Deputy Leader, there are many zombies behind the car."
After Gao Xin was removed from his position as deputy leader, Chen Yuanzheng became the leader of Victory Base through the election of all the members of the base, while Chen Yunhao became the deputy leader.
Chen Yunhao opened the car window, and a cold wind rushed in, carrying with it the heavy snow falling outside, making the people inside the car shiver with cold.
He glanced at Gao Xin beside him. "Aren't you cold?"
Gao Xin, with his eyes closed, did not answer, as if he had not heard, and it was unclear whether he was asleep or not.
Chen Yunhao stopped talking. Lightning crackled from his fingertips and struck the zombies behind the car. With this lightning strike, a third of the zombies behind him disappeared.
He glanced at Gao Xin beside him again and said in a deep voice, "You focus on driving. You don't need to worry about the zombies."
Jin Xiaoli's eyes revealed envy, flattery, and caution. This was the strength of a level three lightning-type ability user. She hadn't expected Chen Yunhao, who had been so quiet and only knew how to do missions, to be so powerful. "Yes!"
He used to be a lackey of Gao Xin. The higher-ups at the base saw that he had little involvement with Gao Xin, and since he was a rare space-type ability user, they did not expel him from the base. Instead, they assigned him this task.
Then, Jin Xiaoli glanced at Gao Xin beside Chen Yunhao and said, "Deputy Chief, we've been driving for half a day now. Shouldn't we take a break? We should be able to reach City A in about two and a half days. Don't worry, Chief, those dozen or so sacks of crystal cores are still safely in my space."
Jin Xiaoli's every word revealed key information: the time, the transaction location, and the storage location of the crystal core.
After Jin Xiaoli finished speaking, her legs, which had stopped trembling after Chen Yunhao dealt with most of the zombies, began to tremble slightly again.
He really wanted Gao Xin, that bastard, dead, but he also had to save Gao Xin because his drug addiction was about to flare up and he needed the drugs Gao Xin could give him.
But he also wanted to seize this opportunity. Jin Xiaoli, wavering like a reed in the wind, turned around and cursed at Gao Xin, "You patricide, you're worse than a pig or a dog! General Gao died unjustly!"
Gao Xin closed his eyes, not even blinking. Throughout the journey, Gao Xin was unusually quiet, not uttering a single word regardless of external physical stimuli or verbal provocations like those from Jin Xiaoli.
If it weren't for the fact that he still needed to eat and defecate, Tang Xubai would have thought this person was dead.
Tang Xubai glanced at Jin Xiaoli, then at Chen Yunhao who showed no reaction, and closed his mouth, which had just opened.
Chen Yunhao looked at the walkie-talkie again, his brows furrowed, and said to Jin Xiaoli, who had been chattering incessantly, "Alright, focus on driving."
He had already spoken with Grandpa Song and the others; Gao Xin was acting strangely, and they were advised to be careful.
It seems that not only is Gao Xin acting strangely, but Jin Xiaoli is acting strangely as well.
What exactly are these two trying to do?
Three days passed quickly.
In front of the barbed wire fence of the Ye family villa, a group of people stood in neat rows, gazing into the distance.
