Apocalypse: I rescued the big boss with millions of supplies

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Setting Off Again

"How are they? Where are Yangyang and the others now? Are they safe?" Long Yuanchen had just put down his phone when Song Ying and Ming Leqing rushed over. "Are they alright?"

"No, they are doing very well. They said they have arrived in Jidu, so don't worry."

Mu Yu is an ice-type ability user at level three, and Yang Yang is a wood-type ability user at level two. With their strength, they could practically do whatever they want in our Qingdu base.

When I called just now, Yangyang said they were making orange juice.

"Their abilities are both high-level. Yangyang can grow things, so she definitely won't lack food. Muyu is an ice-type, so with him around, there's no need to worry about dying from the heat. If I didn't not know where they were, I would have gone to follow them."

Long Yuanchen thought about how hard he had worked to reach level one in his Thunderfire ability, and then thought about how Fu Muyu and Long Yangyang were at level three since the beginning of the apocalypse. The difference was too obvious.

"By the way, Yangyang just told me that after reaching level two of wood-type ability, one can also purify crystal cores. Mom, you can try a little harder." Song Ying is already a level one wood-type ability user, while Ming Leqing is a mutated diamond-type ability user.

Ming Yueqing's supernatural defensive capabilities are extremely strong; even a level two zombie cannot break through her diamond-like defenses.

"Mu Heng also has wood-type abilities. Mom, when you and Mu Heng are at the plantation, keep an eye out and find a few good seedlings. Once you become level two ability users, that Mo Qingfeng will be dealt with sooner or later."

"Mom, Aunt Qing, I need to talk to Dad about this. You two can relax at home, Yangyang and Muyu will be fine."

······

Long Yangyang was unaware of what was happening at the Qingdu base; at this moment, she was excitedly counting the zombie crystal cores in her hand.

Sure enough, people have tremendous potential when their lives are threatened. On the very first day, four people had already collected five zombie crystal cores.

"Not bad, not bad, twenty zombie crystal cores in one day." Long Yangyang nodded in satisfaction.

"Captain Gao said they're leaving tomorrow to join the main force. Yangyang, if you still want to collect crystal cores, we can stay with Captain Gao for a while," Fu Muyu suggested, seeing Long Yangyang's greedy expression.

Since they're heading north anyway, it doesn't matter which route they take.

“Okay.” Long Yangyang nodded.

Long Yangyang and the others planned to eat roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) that night. The bread was something Long Yangyang had stored in her space before the apocalypse, and the meat was stewed by Fu Muyu that afternoon, filling a whole rice cooker.

Qiu Ling's mouth was covered in oil from eating.

"Um, Miss Long, I wonder if we could exchange some fruits and vegetables with you?" After the commotion before, everyone in the service area knew that Long Yangyang was a wood-type ability user.

They also tamed a powerful mutated rose.

The group of superhumans who are talking to Long Yangyang and her group now is another group of superhumans who keep to themselves and don't interfere with the military. When Long Yangyang and her group entered the service area, the other party told them that the soldiers had taken their gasoline.

"Oh, it's you guys. What do you want to exchange? What kind of transaction do you plan to use?"

"We just wanted to get some cucumbers and tomatoes, to try something new," the scarred man said.

The weather is hot now, and fresh food will rot overnight. They don't have any space-type ability users, so they can take advantage of Long Yangyang, a wood-type ability user, to exchange some vegetables with her these few days.

"Miss Long, take a look at these supplies we collected today. Is there anything you'd like?"

Long Yangyang saw the contents of the other person's backpacks. Most of them contained instant noodles, biscuits, and other foods that wouldn't spoil immediately, as well as some beef jerky and candy.

The rest were some common medicines, toothpaste, toothbrushes, toilet paper, wet wipes, and other miscellaneous items.

Long Yangyang picked and chose, taking out a wooden comb, two folding knives, toilet paper, unopened shampoo, and floral water. "That's all. Here are eight tomatoes and eight cucumbers for you?"

"Sure, sure." The bald man grinned, revealing eight large yellow teeth. "I heard that Miss Long likes to collect zombie cores. These are the cores that my brothers and I collected today, and we're giving them to Miss Long."

Long Yangyang looked at the crystal cores held in the bald man's hands. There were more than a dozen crystal cores. Wait, Long Yangyang noticed that one crystal core was obviously a size larger than the others. It was actually the crystal core of a level one zombie.

It's still thanks to its colorless property that it's such a bargain.

Long Yangyang took out a watermelon weighing about five pounds from her spatial storage: "Here, exchange it for a crystal core."

The scarred man was surprised that Long Yangyang was willing to exchange a watermelon for the crystal core. He excitedly took the watermelon and said, "Miss Long is such a generous person. Can we brothers trade with you again tomorrow?"

"can."

Having received an affirmative answer from Long Yangyang, the four of them left with smiles on their faces, completely satisfied.

Long Yangyang quickly purified the level one crystal core: "Lingling, try it out, what's the difference between a level one crystal core and a beginner one?"

Qiu Ling picked up the crystal core, absorbed the energy inside, and replied, "Sister Long, I discovered that the energy inside a level one crystal core is about ten times that of a level one crystal core."

However, based on my intuition, I need at least twenty more level-one crystal cores to upgrade from level one to level two.

"Is that so?" Long Yangyang and Fu Muyu exchanged a glance. In other words, the number of level one crystal cores required to upgrade to level two is about twice that of the number of level one ability crystal cores required to upgrade from level one to level two.

Based on this calculation, if purified primary crystal nuclei are used, approximately 210 nuclei would be needed to progress from primary to secondary levels.

For an individual, this is quite a significant expense.

However, with no other purification ability user appearing at the Qingdu Base and no second-level wood-type ability user emerging, Fu Yang and Mo Qingfeng have the entire Qingdu Base supporting them.

It shouldn't be too difficult to advance to level two by consuming crystal cores.

As for Level 3, Long Yangyang thought about the heavy rain that was coming soon, and that Level 1 superpowered zombies would soon appear in large numbers, and Level 2 zombies would no longer be rare.

"Brother Fu, we need to improve our superpowers as soon as possible."

Fu Muyu nodded.

The next day, after Gao Feng and his group set off, they were once again awestruck by the strength of Long Yangyang and Fu Muyu. The two of them easily dealt with the more than one hundred zombies surrounding them.

The zombie horde was no match for Long Yangyang's rose army. Once bound by the mutated rose vines, their fate was to have their crystal cores dug out by the rose vines.

Fu Muyu was not to be outdone; with a single slash of his ice blade, a large number of zombies instantly fell.

As a level three ability user, Fu Muyu has an absolute advantage when facing low-level zombies and level one zombies. Even when level two ability zombies occasionally appear, Fu Muyu can deal with them with ease.

With Fu Muyu and Long Yangyang as their two powerful allies, the team's progress was largely unimpeded. Before the sun had even set, Gao Feng and his team arrived at the agreed-upon resort in the suburbs of T City.

"Gao Feng, your team arrived quite early."
