Chapter 266 - 266: Of Zombie Swarms and Crystal Cores (Part 3)
Tang Susu drove agilely in the convoy. Her two brothers sat in the car and easily obtained seven T3 crystal cores for her.
The other metahumans were envious. Tang Susu knew that everyone had a very limited amount of crystal cores, and crystal cores were the foundation of all their fighting abilities.
Therefore, she had set up plans for them to kill zombies and collect crystal cores.
Every time she saw a small group of zombies, she would pick up the intercom and say, “Stop the car and fight!”
A group of metahumans dashed out of the car like wild horses. Even the ordinary people who were not strong joined in and joined forces to kill the T2 zombies.
“As expected. There’s strength in numbers. The zombies were gone before I could make a move.” Xiaoyuan was saddened for a second, then happily ran to the fire-types to observe their moves and reactions. She looked very serious.
After stopping three times, they killed more than 200 T2s and more than 10 T3S. Tang Susu distributed more than 10 crystal cores to each ability user.
Tang Susu was almost done, and it was already 1:30 in the afternoon.
“Stop by the roadside and rest!”
Everyone couldn’t help but cheer.
“I’m so tired, so tired!”
“We have to travel and collect crystal cores along the way. That’s why it’s going to strain us more.”
“But we didn’t encounter any danger along the way. Everyone’s fine. We’re really lucky!”
“Do you really think we’re lucky?” Someone laughed and shook his head. “It’s all thanks to that person who controls our progress and rhythm for us. She knows what zombies we should kill and what we should do wherever we go. Everything is under her control. She didn’t delay the journey and also considered our needs!”
On the other side, the people around Lu Yunxiang were also sighing with emotion. One’s style of doing things could only be slowly figured out after getting to know her for real.
“She’s in no rush and has a clear goal. No wonder Uncle Wei didn’t pick me,” Lu Yunxiang felt dejected. “If it were me, 1 would lead everyone to collect enough crystal cores in one go before setting off. 1 wouldn’t do it step by step like this.”
“There’s nothing wrong with this too, miss… Everyone has their own ways of doing things.” Mr. Duan didn’t want her to belittle herself.
Especially recently, she was more and more prone to comparing herself with Miss Tang. In his opinion, the two of them presented different advantages.
“Then do you think I’ll get blinded by the crystal cores and forget what I should do?”
“If Tang Susu was the leader of Qingzhou Shelter, do you think she would let it fall?”
Mr. Duan’s spirit was shaken. So she was still brooding over it. “Miss, that’s not your fault.”
“Yes, but I could have done better…”
While everyone was discussing and casually leaning against the car to eat some food to fill their stomachs and replenish their strength. Tang Susu, together with Cheng Cheng and her daughter, followed her two brothers into the RV.
Mr. Tang had already prepared everything. Before they left, Mrs. Tang had repeatedly reminded him to take good care of the children.
Therefore, when Tang Susu entered, she saw the wine-red cherry wood table had already been folded open. On it were steaming hot rice and six tempting dishes.
The honey sauce barbecued pork made with premium plum blossom meat was fragrant. There was a pot of braised chicken with mushrooms, chili, and potatoes, a dish of refreshing and sweet sponge gourd with scrambled eggs, a dish of sour and spicy cabbage, and a large pot of tofu, shrimp, and mushroom soup in the middle.
“Sit down and eat. After you eat, lie down for a while.” Although Mr. Tang didn’t cook the dishes, he looked like a chef at the moment. He peeled the peels in the basin beside the stove and cut the fruits for them after dinner. He was very experienced.
They were indeed hungry after working for most of the morning. Only Cheng Cheng and her daughter were reserved, feeling embarrassed to eat too much. The others ate until they were satisfied and rested.
“I’m full, I’m full. I can’t eat any more fruit.” Tang Mingchu waved his hand in disdain. “I’m going to sleep for a while.”
He had been too excited last night and had fallen asleep very late. Now, he hurriedly made use of the time to catch up on his sleep. He lay on the sofa and immediately fell asleep.
Tang Susu called Cheng Cheng and her daughter over to eat some fruits. She casually picked up a piece of sweet honeydew. “Why isn’t Bai Yanhui here?”
Usually, he would be thick-skinned enough to come over and eat with them at this time. However, this person had a good grasp of his boundaries and didn’t make others feel disgusted.
“Should I give him some?” Tang Mingqi suddenly remembered that this person had become his friend and casually grabbed an orange and was going to leave. “Is one orange enough?” Tang Susu coughed lightly.
“Alright, two then.” Tang Mingqi grabbed another one.
Tang Susu was speechless.
When Tang Mingqi found Bai Yanhui, he realized that he was actually freeloading at another place.
“Can I have a bite of this?” He looked at the instant noodles in Xie Fei’s bowl. “I don’t have any supplies. It’s so troublesome to bring supplies. It’s a burden.”
“I don’t even want to bring the crystal cores. They’re so heavy. Do you want one? “He casually took out a handful. There was even a T3 inside. “Just give me a bite.”
Xie Fei’s eyes lit up, and he was about to agree when Lu Yunxiang suddenly interrupted him from the side. She used a tone that sounded like a big bad wolf trying to seduce a fool. “If you think it’s too heavy, I’ll help you pack it. Here, I’ll give you a whole bowl of instant noodles.”
“I don’t want it. I want to eat what’s in his bowl.” Bai Yanhui turned his head disdainfully and looked at Xie Fei earnestly.
In the end, Xie Fei was so scared that he ran away.
“What’s wrong?” Lao Yao was immediately on his guard, as if a great enemy had descended upon them.
“That’s so scary. That guy is gay. He even tried to turn me gay.. You guys have
to be careful!”
