What's wrong with being a little arrogant in the apocalypse just to support my wife?

Chen Mingzhang and others did not stop some people from leaving, and reducing the number of people was not entirely a bad thing for them.

Moreover, they haven't returned to the Donggu base yet; it's not that they've completely severed ties, but rather that they don't fully trust each other. Chen Mingzhang also reminded the other squad leaders of the things that needed to be reminded.

Moreover, they are close to the black crystal ore, so they will probably be the first to be invaded. No matter what their purpose is, they cannot let this largest black crystal ore fall into the hands of the Zerg.

The black crystal meteorite that caused this disease broke into hundreds of pieces when it fell, scattered in various corners, with the piece that landed in Lincheng being the largest in size and mass.

Secondly, the same significant mass of beings landed in Xiyue and Beisha respectively. As a result, high-level powerhouses were born in these three areas, whether they were superhumans, zombies, or strange plants and beasts.

According to the memory summary of Noah, a group of elemental perception ability users on Chen Mingzhang's side, the current extreme weather is related to these scattered black crystal meteorites.

The unique energy within the black crystal, which is incorporated into the air, causes instability in the air elements, and the intense weather changes serve as a natural way to regulate this.

According to her speculation, such extreme weather conditions would cease once the supernatural abilities reached a certain balance.

At that time, the amount of supernatural elements in the air will be more abundant, and it will be easier for them to absorb and use supernatural abilities than it is now, like suddenly removing the restraints from their bodies while running with weights.

However, she could not give a specific timeframe for how long this state would last.

Xian Wenrui's dried bamboo shoots were almost dry in just a few minutes. His soup-making skills have improved further; at least his old duck and bamboo shoot soup is quite good.

"This tastes amazing." Xian Wenrui gulped down a bowl, feeling quite pleased with his cooking skills.

However, after he finished speaking, he noticed that the other three people remained silent. Every time this happened, he especially missed Fan Jian and Zhang Wenjing.

Fan Jian would chat with him casually, Zhang Wenjing would make sarcastic remarks, Xiao Bai would call out to him from the side, and Sheng Xue would also chime in with a smile when Fan Jian was around.

Now... he's the only one left talking. The other three aren't talkative, so he seems to have become more talkative.

The base, which didn't feel particularly empty before, now feels unbelievably empty; your voice echoes when you speak.

“I sent the blueprints you made earlier to Chen Mingzhang. They’ve already made a thousand spares,” Lu Yize said to Xian Wenrui as he finished his soup and put down his bowl.

Upon hearing this, Xian Wenrui banished all the random thoughts from his mind and his expression turned serious.

"A thousand power fusion devices are still not enough. They can only fuse two Tier 3 devices, which is not powerful enough. However, they should be effective against ordinary low-level creatures. At present, I can only make Tier 5 fusion devices, but Tier 5 fusion devices are too complicated. I have only made three so far."

The reason for creating the fifth-tier fusion device was that the strongest ability user around Xian Wenrui at the time was only Lu Yize, who was at the fifth tier. However, now that Lu Yize has advanced, Xian Wenrui has new ideas.

"Brother Lu, has your superpower advanced to level six? And Jiang Yue has also advanced to level five?"

"Ah."

Upon hearing this, Xian Wenrui's face lit up with joy. "Brother Lu, I'm confident I can create a weapon that can fuse to the sixth tier. When I saw those seventh-tier insectoid abilities before, I actually had some plans in mind."

"Previously, the fusion of three fifth-tier abilities could barely withstand a seventh-tier attack. If one of them were a sixth-tier ability, it would probably enhance the offensive."

Lu Yize recalled the hierarchy in Noah's memories and shook his head to remind her, "Even when Morse, Xie Hongyang, and I joined forces to inject our supernatural abilities into Pear, we could only barely repel her."

"According to the Federation's definition, Liwa is probably only around level 70, much weaker than Noah and Cecil. They are weaker in their possessed state than in their insect form. Liwa is the only one who showed her insect form, and we had a very difficult time fighting her."

"Even with the fusion of sixth-tier abilities, it would probably only be able to barely cause some damage to Cecil, who has revealed his Zerg form."
