Apocalypse: I rescued the big boss with millions of supplies

Chapter 167 The Gale Ability Group

As Long Yangyang left Grandma Liu's house with Xiao Liu, she sighed, "Although I had guessed it long ago, it is really difficult for ordinary people to live in the apocalypse."

Fu Muyu held Long Yangyang's hand and said, "Whether you're an ordinary person or someone with superpowers, everyone wants to survive." The more resources you have in your own hands, the greater your chances of survival.

Ordinary people are not as strong as those with superpowers; it's a dog-eat-dog world, so they naturally have fewer resources.

“Comparatively speaking, Qingdu Base is fairer to ordinary people,” Yun Cangshu said. Some positions at Qingdu Base are reserved for ordinary people and are not allowed to be taken by people with superpowers.

Although the final outcome mostly benefits the ordinary families of those with superpowers, it still gives ordinary people a chance to survive.

When they left, the base was still working on arranging shelters for orphans under the age of ten without relatives and elderly people over the age of sixty without children (excluding those with superpowers).

The Anling base hasn't made many arrangements for this, probably because it lacks the capacity. After all, the Anling base has less than half the planting land of the Qingdu base, so you can imagine the scarcity of resources.

Led by Xiao Liu, the group quickly arrived at the shop of the Gale Ability Group. As soon as Long Yangyang entered, her eyes were drawn to the beds full of quilts in the shop.

Long Yangyang looked at the quilts on the cabinet. There were about thirty quilts, which wasn't a lot, but it wasn't a small number for a shop either.

"Boss, how many quilts do you sell in your store?" Long Yangyang didn't think the other party would put all the quilts on the shelf. She found that the quilts in the store were quite thick, and decided to buy as many as she could afford.

"Miss, are you looking to buy a quilt?" The shopkeeper saw that Long Yangyang was wearing a silver-white dress and thought to himself, "To be able to dress like this after the apocalypse, one must either be very capable or have a powerful backer. Doing business with someone like that is a good deal."

“That’s right, I’ll buy as many as you have, provided that the quality of the blankets is the same as the ones you put in the shop window here,” Long Yangyang replied.

Ha, what a boastful tone. When the boss saw that Long Yangyang was planning to buy all their quilts, he glanced at her cautiously. Their group leader was worried that the winters would be as cold as the summers. After the rainstorm, when they passed by a shopping mall, they directly bought all the quilts from the entire sixth floor of the mall.

After each member received two thick quilts, the leader asked if anyone wanted to exchange more. He explained that each quilt could be exchanged for just three level-two zombie crystals, making it a great deal.

However, very few people redeemed the quilts, so the group leader got angry and consigned all the remaining quilts to the store for sale, which amounted to about 800 quilts.

It's so hot, who would want to buy quilts? The shop owner was worried about all these quilts, but to his surprise, someone actually came to buy them.

"As for crystal cores, three level-three zombie crystal cores per bed. After all, these blankets were brought back from outside the base by our group's ability users who risked their lives." The shopkeeper realized that Long Yangyang really wanted them, so he directly reduced the price from ten level-two crystal cores to three level-three crystal cores, intending to make a big profit.

He was trying to secure benefits for his family's superpowered group. "Of course, if it's a purified zombie crystal core, only two are needed. As for supplies, thirty kilograms of rice or food of equivalent value for one bed."

Long Yangyang thought about it and found that the prices here were much cheaper than those at Grandma Liu's place. After all, Grandma Liu only had a hundred quilts, and with the supplies Long Yangyang gave Grandma Liu, she could buy all the quilts in this store.

However, Long Yangyang does not plan to exchange food this time; instead, she plans to use crystal cores.

Long Yangyang took out ten purified zombie crystal cores from her spatial storage, and handed three to the shopkeeper: "These are level four purified zombie crystal cores. I plan to browse around your shop with the rest."

"Of course, if you still have quilts, I am willing to continue to exchange them for Level 4 purification crystal cores. We will stay at Anling Base for a while longer. If you agree, you can come to Villa No. 3 in the Chinese-style villa area to find me."

As she finished speaking, Long Yangyang waved the other level-four purification crystal cores in her hand.

"Miss, there are only thirty quilts displayed in the window. The rest are in the warehouse. Would you like to get them yourself or do you need us to deliver them to you?" The shop owner had been in business for a long time. Seeing Long Yangyang and her group of six, he thought that there might be people with spatial abilities among them, so he asked.

"We'll get them ourselves, boss, please lead the way." Long Yangyang raised her finger, put the quilt in the shop window into her spatial storage, and gestured for the boss to lead the way to the warehouse to get other quilts.

"Okay, please come with me." The boss didn't expect that the pretty girl he was talking to was a space ability user. He smiled cautiously at Long Yangyang. Space ability users are all very arrogant, and he couldn't afford to offend her and cause trouble for the ability group.

The shop's warehouse was in the back room. Long Yangyang and Fu Muyu followed the owner and soon entered the warehouse. At the owner's instruction, Long Yangyang took all the cotton quilts from the warehouse.

After picking out a bunch of jade and gold items in the shop, Long Yangyang planned to leave.

"Miss, is your previous offer to exchange a quilt for a level four purification crystal core still valid?" the shopkeeper asked cautiously. Although he was just an ordinary person, his son was an ability user and the vice-captain of the Gale Ability Group.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been chosen as the shop manager. Level 4 purification crystal cores are rare, even Level 3 purification crystal cores aren't common in the Anling base.

If they could take advantage of this opportunity to acquire more Level 4 Purification Crystal Cores, his son and the leader might be able to advance to Level 5 Ability Users.

At that time, their Gale Ability Group will be able to advance to become one of the base's top ability groups.

After Long Yangyang left, the boss told the shop assistant, and the two of them immediately closed the shop and rushed back to inform their team leader.

"Captain, look, aren't these really level four zombie purification crystal cores?" The boss's choice of three purification crystal cores was quite cunning: one wind element, one fire element, and one wood element.

These correspond to the abilities of the leader and two vice-leaders of the Gale Ability Group.

Feng Lei, the leader of the Gale Ability Group, felt the pure energy in the wind-element crystal core in his hand. He wished he could absorb the crystal core now to enhance his abilities, but he suppressed his desire.

"It's a level four purification crystal core, Uncle Wang. Did you acquire this today?" More than improving his superpowers, he was more concerned about whether he could obtain a channel to acquire level four purification crystal cores.

"Commander, that's what I came to tell you about. That young lady came intending to buy a large quantity of quilts. She said that if there's any stock left, she's willing to continue trading with level-four purification crystal cores. I've already given her address."

However, from what I heard, it seems that they don't plan to stay at the base for long, so..."

"Uncle Wang, I understand. I'll think about it. You can go back now."
