Chapter 212: The Sword-Blocking Beauty in the End Times (11)
"Brother Yuan~" The woman moaned softly and fell softly on Long Yuan's chest.
Long Yuan laughed heartily, his rough voice spreading throughout the living room: "Little goblin, go and pour tea for the two guests."
Just looking at Long Yuan's current life, there is no sign of the end of the world, he seems to be still living in a peaceful and prosperous era.
Gu Zhen couldn't help but feel a little disgusted with him. She saw clearly what kind of life ordinary people lived in the North City concentration camp.
The rich have wine and meat, while the poor freeze to death on the streets. The contrast is too stark.
Jiang Yi and Gu Zhen looked at each other cautiously. Since the other party was showing hospitality, they couldn't just ignore it.
Long Yuan stared at the two of them with his turbid eyes. He had many psychics under his command, and he could tell who was the master at a glance.
"You are the ones causing trouble in the base? Young man, you are quite courageous. Do you know the name of this Bright Base?"
Long Yuan didn't seem angry at all, and he just chatted casually, "If you have the ability, you can kill five or six superpowers by yourself."
Jiang Yi couldn't see this man's background, so he simply kept a sullen face and didn't say anything. Long Yuan didn't care either. He tapped off the ashes on his cigarette and looked at the two of them unscrupulously.
"I heard from the people below that you exchanged 10,000 crystal cores for points on the day you first arrived?" Long Yuan asked casually.
Jiang Yi didn't know why he changed the subject, but he nodded anyway. This matter couldn't be hidden.
"Who told you that crystal cores are useful for people with special abilities? Jiang Province is not too far from us, but with the current speed of information transmission, you wouldn't know about it overnight, right?"
Could it be that it just happened to receive a broadcast in this frequency band?
Gu Zhen thought that the one who figured out the function of crystal cores was actually from the Light Base, and it was most likely that researcher.
It's no wonder that Long Yuan was suspicious. After people eliminated the zombies before, they would never mess around in other people's brains again. That was too disgusting, so a small thing like the crystal core had never been noticed.
Even if you see it, you probably won't think of putting it in your mouth.
However, the next day after the news was broadcasted at the base, Gu Zhen and his companions showed up with 10,000 crystal cores.
Jiang Yi glanced at Gu Zhen calmly. This matter was not a big secret after all.
Gu Zhen touched his nose and a hint of disgust appeared on his face, just right.
"We encountered a large group of zombies when we were setting up camp. They destroyed our only campsite. It was already dark, so it was inconvenient to travel..."
At that time, Zhuang Heng was constantly washing the ground with water, and the residue and meat that were washed away were mixed with many crystal cores. Gu Zhen walked over, picked up a few of them, and pretended to ask them casually what these things were.
It was the first time for several people to see this. It was so small that it was completely invisible when mixed in the meat and brain matter. Gu Zhen wanted to let everyone know the function of the crystal core, so he put the crystal core to his nose and smelled it, then licked it with a frown, and the crystal core melted.
Gu Zhen felt a warm current engulfing her from top to bottom, and her every limb was warm and full of strength.
Although Jiang Yi and the others had complicated looks in their eyes, Gu Zhen still suppressed her nausea and told them about this. Crystal cores can not only enhance superpowers, but will also be very important supplies in the future. Moreover, there are always emergencies in actual combat, and a few crystal cores may be able to save lives.
In fact, the crystal core washed with water not only has no odor, but also exudes a special fragrance. But that night, Gu Zhen still secretly found a place to brush his teeth ten times before he felt better.
"We thought this thing was useful, so we wanted to bring it to Beijing and hand it over to the authorities in exchange for some benefits, but we didn't expect that everyone already knew about it. Alas..."
Gu Zhen seemed a little disappointed. While she was telling the story, she covered her mouth and retched from time to time. Long Yuan did not miss any of her expressions. After listening to her, he believed it 100%.
"So that's how it is. You are lucky. The crystal core is a good thing. Many of the psychics in our base have awakened their superpowers and become powerful people in the world because of me." It is not difficult to detect a sense of pride in Long Yuan's tone.
If one can awaken by eating the crystal core, then people can just go out and look for it themselves, and Long Yuan's role would not be that important. Obviously there are secrets in it that they cannot know.
Sure enough, at a glance from Long Yuan, someone left, and a few moments later a plate was brought over with two injections on it.
"Little brother, I admire you very much. See this? This is the essence extracted from the crystal core by researchers at our base. Ordinary people can awaken their superpowers by injecting it, and superpowered people can not only greatly improve their mental strength by injecting it, but they may also be able to evolve a second time."
Long Yuan's voice seemed to have magic, bewitching Jiang Yi and Gu Zhen. No one could resist the temptation to become stronger.
Jiang Yi only wrote down his gold-related abilities when registering, and he did not reveal himself when fighting with others. He showed a yearning look at the right time: "Is this thing so powerful?"
"Hahahaha, of course, little brother, this thing is not easy to get. Even with tens of thousands of crystal cores, you may not be able to extract one. You must seize the opportunity."
Jiang Yi glanced at the tray obscurely and said hesitantly, "Why did Brother Yuan come to us? You have many strong men under you, so you shouldn't need two of us, right?"
Long Yuan raised his eyebrows, leaned back on the sofa, and spread his legs wide open. His sturdy legs showed his extraordinary strength.
Gu Zhen couldn't help wondering, what kind of supernatural power did Long Yuan have? Why did this overlord who never appeared in the original book disappear from people's sight?
"Boy, you are still too young. As soon as the five of you appeared in Jincheng, you were targeted. The little lover next to you is so pure that it seems like he has never experienced the end of the world. If he didn't have some means, how could he protect him so well?"
Gu Zhen's heart skipped a beat. What Long Yuan said made sense. In essence, she had not yet completely integrated into this world, because in her eyes, this was just a copy.
Furthermore, the protagonist's team is really awesome. They pamper her like a younger sister. Zhuang Heng is always the one who rushes to do the dirty work, and Jiang Yi is always there to face all the difficulties and dangers. Not to mention Duan Yanpu who almost treats her as his own daughter, and Ning Ning, an expert in pampering younger sisters, who takes care of her.
Along the way, she was like a lotus flower that grew out of the mud without being stained, a little eye-catching.
"When you took action today, five or six superpowers couldn't get close to you. You can see how capable you are." Long Yuan was confident. "Join us and become a member of the Superpower Army of the Light Base. You will have good food and drink, and you won't have to worry about your woman being bullied. This end of the world is our chance, our chance to dominate the world!"
They actually want to dominate the world. Tianjin is so close to Beijing. If they control the center of power, wouldn't this society become like the Guangming Base?
Ordinary people are struggling to survive, those with special powers are bullying them, and there is a clear hierarchy. Is there any way to survive?
He is too arrogant. Sooner or later, the authorities will find an opportunity to destroy such a person. Perhaps Long Yuan’s demise stems from this.
Gu Zhen clenched her fingers, she had implicated Jiang Yi, if she hadn't joined, Jiang Yi and the others would have been completely invisible here, and when they heard the news that they couldn't find their families, they would have gone north to Beijing smoothly, and they wouldn't even be able to see Long Yuan.
Jiang Yi guessed what Gu Zhen was thinking and held her hand to comfort her. It was not Gu Zhen's fault, but the one who was wrong was the villain like Long Yuan who took advantage of the troubled times to make a profit.
Just as he was thinking about how to reject Long Yuan, the heavy door of the villa was slowly pushed open again, and several people walked in from outside. They were Zhuang Heng, Ning Ning and Duan Yanpu.
Oh no, Gu Zhen felt a little uneasy. It might be hard for them to escape unscathed tonight.
