Quick Transmigration: The Green Tea Mistress's Guide to Seduction - A Master's Handbook

“In the car.” Zhou Yao pointed to a car next to him.

Xie Qingyu walked over, and before the car door could be opened, she pulled it open and saw Xie Cheng inside.

Xie Cheng is injured.

This was Xie Qingyu's first reaction; otherwise, there would be no way to explain Xie Cheng's current listless state.

"Dad, are you hurt?" Xie Qingyu knelt on one knee on the back seat and leaned over to check on Xie Cheng's condition.

"It's nothing." Xie Cheng straightened up slightly upon hearing Xie Qingyu's voice. "Just a minor ailment."

Xie Qingyu naturally didn't believe Xie Cheng's words.

But he looked clean and didn't seem injured.

"When did this happen? How come I didn't know?" Xie Qingyu asked as she touched Xie Cheng's forehead.

Not hot.

Superhumans have much better physical abilities than ordinary people, and Xie Cheng is a level three superhuman, so it's unlikely he has any physical problems.

“It’s a side effect of absorbing too many crystal cores,” Ji Lingshen, who was following behind Xie Qingyu, said quietly.

Xie Qingyu was taken aback upon hearing this and looked at Xie Cheng.

Xie Qingyu vaguely knew about the side effects of absorbing crystal nuclei, but she hadn't seen them yet.

Moreover, the post-apocalyptic world has long been dominated by the principle of valuing strength, so absorbing crystal cores to enhance one's chances of survival is much greater.

Therefore, even though people know about the side effects, few pay attention to them.

Most importantly, these side effects did not cause any serious consequences.

Xie Cheng heard Ji Lingshen's words and didn't refute them, which meant he was right.

Xie Qingyu looked at Xie Cheng, wondering why Xie Cheng's side effects were suddenly so obvious.

"It's nothing. I just used up a lot of energy when I helped the convoy leave the zombie horde, and I was in a hurry to replenish it. Maybe the absorption time was too short. It'll be fine in a while. Don't worry." Xie Cheng still managed to comfort Xie Qingyu with difficulty.

"Stop talking, we'll see where you live later..."

“I’ll carry you up,” Ji Lingshen replied.

Xie Cheng shook his head.

"We'll help you up." Xie Qingyu understood Xie Cheng's concerns.

He couldn't appear weak at this time. He had been the backbone of the team all the way. If the backbone couldn't hold on, the people below would have their own thoughts.

"Wait a bit..." Xie Cheng didn't say whether he agreed or not.

"What's going on!" Chang Xinrui's voice rang out, somewhat shrill.

"Keep your voice down!" Xie Qingyu said without turning around.

Chang Xinrui was startled by Xie Qingyu's slightly scolding voice, but when she saw Xie Cheng's gaze, she didn't dare to say anything.

"Are you feeling unwell? Were you bitten?" Chang Xinrui asked in a low voice.

Neither Xie Qingyu nor Xie Cheng paid any attention to her.

"No, it's just that I used too much energy fighting the zombies, so I need to rest for a while to recover," Ji Lingshen explained.

Ji Lingshen's explanation was heard by those who had gathered around the car, though they seemed to be barely aware of it.

Then there were far fewer people sneaking glances in this direction.

"Okay, then rest for a bit. I'll tidy up your room, and you can come and rest in the room later." Chang Xinrui felt guilty for saying the wrong thing earlier.

Chang Qing was pulled away by Chang Xinrui.

Xie Cheng recovered his mental state very quickly.

By the time most of the people outside had been assigned to rooms to rest, he was able to get out of the car and walk on his own.

Several superhumans who were still refueling and checking the vehicles greeted him when they saw him come out.

Now everyone basically knows that he overused his superpowers.

And it was for the sake of the racing team.

Xie Qingyu and her group drove far away from the main group and were unaware of the situation of the other vehicles at the time.

Because there are many vehicles in the convoy, even if they are scattered, some vehicles will still be in the same direction.

Without attacking the zombies, it's practically impossible to make any progress.

Most of the superhumans in the team act as drivers because they are familiar with the outside world due to frequent missions.

Under such circumstances, Xie Cheng had to put in more effort to deal with the zombies.

"Once you're done, go and rest well. It'll be dark soon, and the road ahead will be difficult tomorrow, so we need to set off early."

"Okay, you should get some rest too."

The road was difficult to travel on the second day because we had to pass through the city the next day.

When the apocalypse comes, densely populated urban areas will be the hardest hit.

Not only are there many zombies, but there are also many out-of-control vehicles blocking the road, and in some places you have to take a detour.

These were the words Xie Cheng said to Xie Qingyu after he entered the house.

"Just keep going. The convoy hasn't been moving fast these past two days, and it might be even slower and more dangerous tomorrow. Dad might not be able to protect you then, so be careful," Xie Cheng instructed.

"I will protect you," Xie Qingyu said, looking at Xie Cheng.

Today's events made Xie Qingyu realize for the first time that in this apocalyptic world, Xie Cheng was not omnipotent.

This also makes me understand better why it was written from the beginning with the intention of letting her awaken her superpowers.

Danger is everywhere, and accidents can happen at any time.

No one can protect you as well as you rely on yourself.

"Sweetie, it's okay, go to sleep." Xie Cheng rubbed Xie Qingyu's head, completely unaware that Ji Lingshen was staring at his hand.

By the time they set off the next day, Xie Cheng had fully recovered.

You can't tell at all that she looked weak yesterday.

The convoy also set off.

Yesterday, when we gathered with the main group, all the vehicles were parked here. Xie Qingyu was worried about Xie Cheng and didn't pay attention to the situation of the convoy.

When we set off today, we discovered that about one-fifth of the convoy was missing.

The outcome can be imagined.

Except for a small group who, like Xie Qingyu and her group, went the wrong way and didn't catch up with the main force, the rest perished in the zombie horde that day.

The rest of the team was clearly aware of the situation, and the atmosphere was much worse than when they had set off.

Even people who know each other don't joke around much anymore.

With zombies everywhere, vehicles have no chance of getting on the highway and can only take the national and provincial roads. If they encounter traffic jams, they can go around by taking side roads.

Just as Xie Cheng said yesterday, the convoy moved very slowly today.

The vehicles in front would occasionally get off to move the obstacles or turn into side roads to find a convenient detour.

Xie Cheng still didn't ride in the same car as Xie Qingyu and the others today; he stayed in one of the cars ahead so he could keep track of the situation.

Xie Qingyu was still a little worried about his health, after all, there were some wandering zombies on the road that needed to be dealt with from time to time today.

But soon, Xie Qingyu's worries extended beyond Xie Cheng.

Ji Lingshen collapsed again.

Seeing that he was in a similar state to yesterday, Xie Qingyu would have suspected that he was also suffering from the side effects of absorbing too many crystal cores if it weren't for the fact that he wasn't absorbing crystal cores much.
