Ever since Hou Yingâs ability to transmit the energy of all elements in the crystal nucleus was exposed, it seemed to have opened the protagonistâs aura and became the only one in everyoneâs eyes.\n
Hou Yingâs colleague, Ji Yao, who was a game programmer and game fan before the end of the world, also jokingly called him an âomnipotent nanny<sup>1</sup>â, and he is a big tit, big tits! He regards his physical strength as the health bar of the character in the game, and compares the energy value of the ability to the blue bar, and every time heâs âOOM<sup>2</sup>â, he shouts at Hou Ying to âhealâ him.\n
When it was proved that this passive transmission did not require Hou Yingâs awake consciousness, even his sleeping time was counted in the schedule by other people who took turns to absorb the abilities.\n
When sleeping, one hand holds a crystal core, and the other is held by someone. No matter how wide Hou Yingâs heart is, he canât fall asleep. Later, he thought a little and put forward the suggestion to have a fixed conduction target every night.\n
They donât know what color the zombie nucleus suitable for Wang Hehe is, in short, it can be imagined to be very rare. Ji Yaoâs light blue wind zombie nucleus is also very few, so he successfully fixed Li Xuanyuan as his sleep conduction targetâwho makes the number of zombies with five elements ability the largest? Even if the first-level zombie crystal nucleus is not absorbed quickly, it can stand the amount<sup>3</sup>.\n</ins>\n\nTherefore, Li Xuanyuan became Hou Yingâs âfixed bed partnerâ.\n
Ji Yao, who knows Hou Yingâs taste best, immediately understands Hou Yingâs ulterior motives when he looks at Li Xuanyuanâs handsome face, strong, and vigorous figure, and winked at the side. This âeyebrow to eyebrow<sup>4</sup>â not only made Wang Hehe, who thought of his uncleâs sexuality, open his eyes wide, but also makes Li Xuanyuan, who thinks of Hou Yingâs bad habits, darken his face.\n
Hou Ying quickly argued, âDonât get me wrong, I chose Li Xuanyuan because his five-element ability is the strongest among you and needs the most energy. And Iâm already so familiar with himââ\n
âShut your mouth.â\n
Li Xuanyuan, who was provoked by everyoneâs teasing eyes, glared at him fiercely.\n
Hou Ying got embarrassed, giving him a flattering smile. Li Xuanyuan really wants to strangle this gay guy who is not guilty of his sexual desires. However, after knowing the energy of the crystal nucleus, facing Hou Ying, who is not as good as one-tenth of his own strength and boldness<sup>5</sup>, he decided to âswallow this humiliationâ.\n
After six absorptions by Li Xuanyuan, three second-level transparent crystal nuclei that Jiang Tao and his colleagues could not absorb at present were completely absorbed by him.\n
After constantly replenishing energy, Li Xuanyuan clearly felt the process of his ability from reaching the upper limit, feeling the bottleneck, loosening the bottleneck, and breaking through with the absorption of nuclear energy. After breaking through, he used Hou Ying as the medium to successfully absorb the energy in the only level 3 zombie crystal nucleus that Hou Ying gave up at the beginningâeven if he only absorbed one-tenth of it and couldnât continue. He also understood that his ability had gone from level two to level three!\n
With his success ahead, everyone canât bear the temptation of the energy in the zombie nucleus!\n
After the upgrade, Li Xuanyuan didnât have much joy, instead said with a little fear, âCompared with my current level, the metal zombie I met with Lao Er before should be at level three just like me, but even more powerful than I am now, maybe level 3 high-level.â\n</ins>\n\nAccording to their absorption of crystal nucleus energy, Hou Ying changed everyoneâs ability level to the level corresponding to the zombie crystal nucleus of the same attribute that they can absorb. If they can absorb the level 2 zombie crystal nucleus, it means that the ability has broken through from level 1 to level 2. On this basis, he further subdivides it into three levels: low, medium, and high level.\n
The level 2 low-level abilities can only absorb less than one-third of the energy of a second-level zombie nucleus at one time, while the middle level can absorb less than two-thirds of the energy, and the higher level can slowly absorb the whole second level zombie nucleus at once. This is the commonality drawn from the growth process of Li Xuanyuan, who has broken through to level 3 wood ability, and Qiao Dayeâs level 2 high-level five senses ability.\n
The energy needed to break through from level 2 to level 3, according to their preliminary judgment, varies from ability to ability and from person to person.\n
Knowing that the zombieâs metal ability has reached the level of the third-level high-level, except for Ji Yao who did not know the dangerous situation at the time, everyone took a breath!\n
They now know very well that every time the ability rises by one level, itâs not just a slight difference, but a world of difference! Even Li Xuanyuan felt that he was no match. At that time, they attacked the metal zombie rashly, they were just sending raw meat to the zombie!\n
There is an increasing demand for nuclei among the ability users in the team.\n
They adjusted the plan of encircling the zombies to train hands based on Hou Yingâs suggestion. The goal moved from simply exploding the zombiesâ heads to blasting the head then grabbing the crystal nucleus of the zombie when surrounding them. No matter what attribute the zombie crystal nucleus is, they will not refuse, and within a week, all the zombies with abilities within a radius of ten miles are all destroyed!\n
Moreover, because the zombiesâ abilities they encountered during this period of time did not reach level 3, under the escort of Li Xuanyuan, their project of digging crystal nucleus was carried out smoothly.\n
Seeing the increasing number of crystal nuclei, they did not slack off but became more enthusiasticâbecause they were pleasantly surprised to find that by absorbing nuclei energy as the main goal, and hunting zombies and forging their bodies as a supplement, they could steadily improve faster, speeding up the promotion of the level of their ability.\n
Under the circumstance that the adults were busy, the sensible Meng Hanghai took the initiative to take on the logistics work.\n</ins>\n\nAlthough he had just started and his cooking skills were worse than Gongsun Jingâs, the adults who canât help are still very grateful for his help and donât complain.\n
Originally, they were not assured that Meng Hanghai would stay in the service area alone, but after Qiao Dayeâs five-sense ability reached level 2, his hearing spread to a radius of two kilometers, and his vision expanded to a radius of three kilometers, his safety was entrusted to Qiao Daye. In fact, the HaiYe service area is relatively safe because nearby zombies with abilities have been cleared by them. Ordinary zombies are either cleaned or driven away. This week, there is not even a single zombie that has broken into the service area.\n
Another week later, in the second month after the end of the world, their team was formally established.\n
ăDefault Captaină\n
Hou Ying, a level 2 high-level hearing ability user, has the whole system of nuclei energy absorption and transmission constitution, as well as the mysterious and unexplainable ability to indiscriminately isolate his smell from the zombiesâ olfactory senses.\n
ăMain Strengthă\n
Li Xuanyuan: level 3 low-level wood ability.\n
Qiao Daye: level 2 high-level five sense ability, and level 2 high-level speed ability.\n
Jiang Tao: level 2 mid-level fire ability.\n
Ji Yao: level 2 low-level wind ability.\n
Su Fenghe: level 2 low-level strength ability.\n
ăAssistant Defense & Logisticsă\n
Liu Zhan: level 2 high-level water ability.\n
Gongsun Jing: level 2 high-level mutant water healing ability.\n
Wang Hehe: level 1 clairvoyance ability, status unknown.\n</ins>\n\nMeng Hanghai: no ability.\n
They still donât know at this time, the overall strength of their team is already ahead of most of the ability users in the post-apocalyptic world, and the overall strength is unique.\n
Now, they are gathered together, eating hot pot, while discussing how to implement the next plan.\n
They have not used up the zombie crystal nuclei yetâbecause of the small number of team members and different abilities, their consumption of crystal nuclei is much slower than the speed of gathering crystal nucleiâbut they have soberly realized a heavy reality. That is, without higher-level zombie nuclei, they canât breakthrough.\n
Itâs not only Li Xuanyuan, who is stagnant at the third level high-level, who has such an urgent sense of crisis, but everyone in the team has such a consensus.\n
The zombie crystal level of this place is far from meeting their needs. What they need to do is to leave this place, move forward to the 24th division, and get more and more advanced zombie crystals.\n
Before that, the first thing they have to do is to go to the fuel plant and kill the level 3 metal zombie, pick up the car, and collect materials.\n
However, they knew too little about the metal ability zombie, so they agreed that Hou Ying, Li Xuanyuan, Qiao Daye, Ji Yao, Liu Zhan, and Gongsun Jing would fight forward. The main purpose is to observe the ability level of the metal zombie. If they canât deal with it, come back and make a plan to encircle it.\n
That day was a sunny day. Although it was cold outside, the mood of several people was very bright.\n
Before leaving, Hou Ying tried his best to store the energy of the crystal nuclei corresponding to the six peopleâs ability attributes in his body, and put some of the most abundant first-order transparent crystal nuclei on his belt for replenishment at any time. Ji Yao looked for Wang Hehe to âmake a divinationâ. Although Wang Hehe didnât foresee that they could return in a big victory, nor did he foresee the danger, this was enough to boost morale.\n</ins>\n\nThe daring few masters drove a crispy multi-person commercial vehicle and left.\n
On the road, they met some secondary speed zombies, which made them itch, but Li Xuanyuan had already wrapped up the car with vines, except the windshield and rear-view mirror. They had to put aside the secondary crystal nucleus in the brain of the speed zombies firstâafter all, the main purpose of their trip was the level 3 transparent crystal nucleus!\n
The car stopped in front of the gate of the fuel plant, and the vines suddenly faded to show their original appearance. Then, six green people with only their nostrils and eyes exposed came down from the car one after another.\n
Qiao Daye had determined the location of the metal ability zombie before, and what surprised them was that the third-level zombie was still in the warehouse where they had fought.\n
It seems that the metal ability zombie didnât chase them out and gave them a fatal blow, it was not a fluke, but because of some reason, this zombie was trapped in the warehouse.\n
The six people observed from a distance for a while, but even Hou Ying and Qiao Daye didnât know the situation inside, because the metal zombie inside is too quiet!\n
They discussed and made a decision.\n
They drove in the heavy container truck at the back door of the fuel plant, which was forced to abandon half a month ago, and Li Xuanyuan tentatively sent the vines into the warehouse. Seeing that the zombie didnât respond to this, he immediately started, and tens of thousands of vines joined hands to help. In less than a minute, he carried the finished fuel from the warehouse to the container.\n
Putting it too eagerly, the movement caused a lot of zombies in work clothes to attack them, just enough to let the rest of the people clean them up, harvesting a lot of zombie nuclei.\n
After that, Li Xuanyuan first put their old friend, the armored car that was lost here last time, into the container, and then searched the factory buildings near the warehouse, emptied the flammable oil and semi-processed products as usual, and finally, six people walked into the warehouse where the metal zombies are.\n
The perception of the level 3 zombies to human beings are obviously stronger than that of the level 2 olfactory ones. Although they already have vines to isolate and disguise themselves, the moment they stepped into the warehouse, the quiet third-level zombies immediately got furious and roared. Then his iconic metal giant ax arrived in front of a few people!\n
Several people were shocked. Li Xuanyuan did not dare to underestimate the enemy and exploded into the peak state of his ability. While the sharp and hard metal vines blocked the huge ax, another sharp vine shot between the zombieâs eyebrowsâ\n
Huo huo!\n
The zombie screamed, found that the ax was blocked and couldnât beat the humans, and immediately turns into thousands of sharp tools, revealing the original form of metalâiron rods, hammers, and even metals as small as screwsâstabs rapidly, collides with the vine net, and makes a sharp and piercing sound! The vine that shot at the zombie was cut off by the tall zombie with a wave! The vines that attacked the zombie in other places collide with its body, making a strong metallic sound, but none of them pierced the zombie!\n
They discovered at this time that the zombieâs blue skin was as hard as metal, even his nails were as sharp as metal.\n</ins>\n\nLi Xuanyuan roared, âImplement the second plan!â\n\n
