"Wish, do you want to know why the world is like this?"
Zhou Quan asked calmly.
Xu Xiyuan breathed out a sigh of relief, feeling very excited and happy inside. She knew that Zhou Quan had truly accepted herself from now on.
"Xin Yuan really wants to know the truth, please master, please clarify."
Xu Xinyuan agreed obediently, with a hint of gentleness and naivety in her voice. If there were other boys present, Xu Xinyuan's tone would immediately arouse their protectiveness and excitement.
However, for a mage like Zhou Quan, whose mental and willpower are extremely strong and stable, it has no charm at all.
Zhou Quan collected his thoughts and slowly explained to Xu Xin Yuan:
"This world is just a small plane among countless planes. Normally, due to the existence of space barriers in various sub-planes, each sub-plane operates independently and does not interfere with each other. But for some unknown reasons, the world's The space barriers have been continuously broken recently, and the energy and rules from other spaces are constantly corroding this world until this world is completely assimilated!"
Xu Xinyuan was shocked after hearing this and asked quickly:
"So what's going on with the zombies outside? Are they caused by virus infection in other dimensions?"
Zhou Quan shook his head and said in denial:
"No, if it's just a virus, it can be completely controlled with the existing human government's power and medical conditions. Those zombies are actually the result of human beings being exposed to energy radiation from other spaces and their bodies cannot adapt to mutation. Don't worry, you and Like other survivors, their bodies have adapted to this energy and will not transform into corpses, but they still cannot be bitten by zombies. Finally, there are some people whose bodies have not only adapted to this mysterious energy, but can also absorb this energy to cause mutations. In the end, he will become a person with powers beyond ordinary people."
"Superpowers?" Xu Xinyuan asked curiously:
"Are they just people with superpowers like you and Liu Shu, Master?"
Zhou Quan nodded and said:
"Yes, Liu Shu mutated into an assassin-type superpower with some of the abilities of a mouse. He has reflexes and speed that surpass humans. In addition to combat-type superpowers, there are also defensive, control, and auxiliary superpowers. Human beings with special abilities are collectively called superpowers. These superpowers can continue to evolve and their power will increase step by step. They will eventually reach the realm that ordinary humans call "gods". As of now, Human weapons and technology cannot cause any harm to high-level superpowers. At that time, it will no longer be the government army that rules mankind, but superpowers with powerful powers. So, I hope your vision for the future is right. , there is actually no choice for ordinary people in the future, they must either become slaves of superpowers or die."
Xu Xinyuan smiled and said flatteringly
"So I wish I have to follow my master. The master is so powerful and so good. The zombies are so scary. They can be dealt with by my master in two or three strikes. I wish I can't live without my master for the rest of my life."
"Powerful?" Zhou Quan smiled self-deprecatingly and criticized seriously:
"Wish, if you survive with this mentality, I won't be able to protect you in a few weeks. Do you think zombies are just the end of the world? To tell you the truth, zombies are just the beginning. In three weeks, the second global mutation frenzy will begin. At that time, not only zombies, but all living things on the earth will undergo fundamental mutations. Even ants may become palm-sized terrifying monsters that feed on flesh and blood. , At that time, not to mention my kitchen knife, even the pistol in the hand of the police could not hurt those monsters. At what point do you think ordinary people can rely on to survive?"
Xu Xinyuan was shocked speechless by this information, and a sense of despair slowly welled up in her heart. If it was true as Zhou Quan said, in a few weeks, other creatures would mutate into bloodthirsty monsters, then even if he could learn to kill with a knife like Zhou Quan, After killing zombies, how long can you survive in the crisis-ridden apocalypse? Can a knife kill a mutant beast?
Zhou Quan looked at Xu Xinyuan's nervous and desperate expression with satisfaction. He understood that pressure is the catalyst for human progress. If Xu Xinyuan indulges in the fantasy of "if you are comprehensive, you will be foolproof", you will not be able to progress and exert your own value. , then sooner or later she will be abandoned by Zhou Quan and die alone.
Zhou Quan's goal and obsession from beginning to end is to keep getting stronger and moving forward, and to find ways to improve his chances of survival in the end of the world. He needs useful subordinates, not useless vases!
After all, Xu Xi wish was a smart and quick-thinking girl, otherwise she would not have become the vice president of the student union. After a short period of despair and confusion, she quickly woke up and realized the meaning of Zhou Quan's words. She quickly knelt down and half Kneeling in front of Zhou Zhou, he lowered his head and said respectfully:
"Master, please rest assured that Wishong is not a parasite that only clings to others. Although Wishong is not good at fighting and is not a superpower, Wishong still has certain abilities in information collection and analysis, and Wishong feels that with the master As you become stronger step by step, the master will definitely form a force of his own. Managing an organization is a very troublesome and trivial matter. The master cannot cover everything. I hope that when the time comes, I can recommend myself as an agent to help the master manage the organization."
"oh?"
Zhou Quan was a little surprised by Xu Xin Yuan's foresight. He himself had privately considered waiting until he reached the bronze level and had enough self-preservation power to establish a force composed of superpowers, and then gradually absorb ordinary people and eventually turn it into a city. A large level organization. Because he knows that in a crisis-ridden doomsday, heroes who fight alone will eventually perish. Only by forming a force powerful enough to fight natural and man-made disasters can survival be truly ensured.
But building an organization means dealing with a lot of internal and external affairs, as well as dealing with all kinds of unfamiliar people. Although my language skills and persuasion skills are not bad, I am not a social person by nature, and I need an agent to act as my two hands. and mouth, handle those tedious matters for yourself, and the agent must be a smart person that you can trust and control, and right now - only Xu Wish is the best candidate.
First of all, in terms of loyalty, although Zhou Quan doesn’t know what Xu Xin Yuan’s feelings are for her, what is certain is that she will never betray or leave him. This has been confirmed in various previous tests. If Xu Xin Yuan is If she was a little dissatisfied or disapproved of Zhou Quan, she had been forced to leave by Zhou Quan, so Zhou Quan was relieved when she was willing to give up her dignity and body to follow her own wish.
Secondly, in terms of ability, Xu Xin Yuan was the vice president of the school student union and the president of the home dance association before the end of the world. He also ran his own business as an Internet celebrity blogger. In the end, he did not even fall behind in his studies and won many scholarships. It can be said that Her abilities are even more outstanding than her beauty, and whether she saw through Liu Shu's lies in the auditorium or gave perfect answers to her tricky questions, she revealed that Xu Xin Yuan is a very smart, quick-thinking and even very smart person. Talent with vision.
Finally, in terms of control, needless to say, Xu Xin Yuan is just an ordinary person. Even if she has ulterior motives and wants to betray herself, what can she do to win the trust of those with superpowers? What can be done to stop Zhou Quan's anger? Without her own shelter and no ability to protect herself, she could only become a toy and slave of other superpowers. She was one of the few superpowers in the apocalypse who was not very interested in her beauty.
Thinking of this, Xu Xin Yuan's value in Zhou Quan's heart instantly increased. She was not only a maid who served him, but also acted as a spokesperson for his image. Then he had to cultivate and protect her before forming his own force.
Zhou Quan helped her up, looked into her eyes as clear and calm as autumn water, and said:
"Very good, my wish. You have finally recognized your own value and role. I will indeed form a force that belongs only to my own will in the future. I need a trustworthy person to manage it. I don't trust people and I don't trust people when I employ them. Since I Now that I have recognized you, I will naturally not let you just be a vase decoration, you will become my spokesperson on the face of the world, inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people!"
Xu Xin looked forward to Zhou Quan's calm but somewhat ambitious and fanatical eyes, and her heart beat faster. She knew that Zhou Quan would definitely achieve this goal, and she would do her best to help Zhou Quan achieve this goal.
Zhou Quan took out a fruit knife and handed it to Xu Xin Yuan and said:
"Hold this knife. Next, I will teach you some knife skills and techniques. You must practice well and improve your self-protection ability. I may not always protect you."
Xu Xinyuan took the fruit knife and nodded solemnly.
The day ended with Zhou Quan's scolding and Xu Xin Yuan's constant swing of the knife.
···
On the other side, Hu Jin and others encountered trouble. Just when a group of them entered the store to get food, a child-like zombie suddenly appeared from the shelf next to them. The child-like zombie was hiding quietly under the shelf, so Hu Jin and others did not see it during the investigation. The child-like zombie was very fast. It jumped quickly like a monkey and pounced on a boy who couldn't react, biting him. The severe pain on the side of his neck made the already frightened boy scream loudly:
"Ah ah ah! Save me! Hu Ge, Zhang Ping, please save me quickly and pull it out!"
Upon seeing this, Zhang Ping wanted to rush forward to help, but Hu Jin grabbed him and stopped him:
"Zhang Ping! Don't go! He has been bitten, and he will turn into a zombie before long. Now his voice has attracted the zombies outside. Let's retreat quickly! We won't be able to escape if it's too late."
"But Qiangzhi is my good brother!"
Zhang Ping shouted unwillingly, looking a little struggling.
"Hu Ge, Brother Zhang, leave quickly! The zombies are coming!"
At this time, another boy came over in a panic and said.
Faced with this situation, Zhang Ping gritted his teeth, turned around and followed Hu Jin and the others away, ignoring the desperate and painful brother.
When they left the store, they discovered that there were more zombies than they imagined, and there were dozens of zombies blocking the route back to the dormitory building. They couldn't go back!
"What should we do? Brother Hu, where are we going?"
one boy asked desperately
Hu Jin turned his head and looked at the canteen not far away, gritted his teeth and shouted to everyone:
"Everyone, run to the cafeteria with me! Hurry!"
A group of 9 people fled towards the cafeteria.
