"Excuse me, are there any mutant potions?"
Lin Qingqing sat on the only chair outside, while Lei Min pulled Wen Ling and stood behind her consciously.
"Generally, mutant power potions need to be ordered in advance. You need to pay a deposit in advance, and you can pick them up in about five days. Which mutant power potion do you need?"
The workers here have long been accustomed to this kind of questions. Since mutants are so rare, such questions are usually asked out of curiosity, and they are not surprised.
"Ice type, how much is the deposit?"
"You really want it? Oh no, you are an ice superpower"? Why didn't he know when an ice superpower came to the base?
"What? If you're not an ice type, you can't decide"?
"Of course not, it's just that although ice potions are rare, they are only useful for ice power users, and the price is several times that of ordinary power potions." It turned out that he was still curious, Bai was excited.
"I'm just curious about the price. Will anyone buy it if it's so expensive?"
"Of course someone bought it. If necessary, you have to buy it no matter how expensive it is. Otherwise, how can you upgrade it?"
Potions for superpowers are made by exchanging ten crystal cores of the same attribute for one, and mutation potions are no exception. However, mutated crystal cores are rare, and it is usually a dozen or so for one. It all depends on luck.
"What if we use a secondary crystal core instead?"
"Level 2? You are really rich. Who would exchange the second-level crystal core for the first-level potion? The exchange rate for the second-level crystal core and the first-level crystal core is one to one hundred"!
"I mean to exchange the second-level crystal core for the second-level medicine. How do I change it?"
"Do you want to upgrade?"
"Well, I just got a secondary crystal core," Lin Qingqing said.
"Congratulations then. The second-level crystal nuclei are exchanged for the second-level potions. One for each. What type do you want to change?"
"How many times more energy does the second-order potion contain than the first-order potion?"
"How do I know this? I'm not a superpower, and this thing depends on people. It's not like you don't know that some people can advance by eating dozens of sticks, but some people can reach three figures. It’s still a little bit worse.”
"Is there such a thing? I thought everyone was the same!"
"How can it be the same? Everyone's absorption situation is different. This is not a game prop. Can it also add experience points?"
It was the first time that Lin Qingqing heard that there was such a big difference in the effects of supernatural potions. Lin Qingqing was secretly surprised.
"I was wrong. Thank you very much. Let's go change some crystal cores first and then come back." After that, he got up and left.
Um? This person asked so many questions but he didn't even change a single potion?
Damn it, isn’t this just for my entertainment?
"You look good, but you didn't expect to be poor!" The receptionist snorted disdainfully.
After Lin Qingqing left with an excuse, the three of them came to a deserted corner.
"The powers of the three of us are more special than the last. I'm afraid the potion used by Little Bell is even rarer."
She didn't ask about the special type just now. It is said that those with such powers must take potions with no attributes and pure mental power. They have seen ice and thunder crystal cores, but after killing so many zombies, they have not seen a single non-attribute crystal core.
"It doesn't matter. We're just curious anyway. If we really have to take hundreds of potions to upgrade, then I won't be able to count on it for the rest of my life," Lei Min said nonchalantly, shrugging.
"That's right, we have a secret weapon, and they don't seem to know it"! Wen Ling was a little excited when she thought of the meditation technique.
"Indeed, this can save a lot of crystal cores." Lin Qingqing couldn't help but smile. Others temporarily used crystal cores to change potions and upgrade, but they had no need at all.
"Then do you have anything else to buy?"
"Um...it seems not."
"I think should not be".
I feel like I have money that I can’t spend anymore!
"How about we go to the store below. No medicine is needed, but you can change weapons and equipment." Lei Min suggested. She had always wanted to find some materials with good conductivity to make weapons.
"Okay, let's go, you can buy whatever you want today"! Lin Qingqing, a person who didn't even need weapons, suddenly felt rich.
Going down the stairs to the third floor, the atmosphere inside suddenly changed drastically.
There are no compartments on this floor, only rows of shops against the wall. There is an endless stream of people coming to trade Taobao, and there is the noise of bargaining everywhere.
Lin Qingqing and the three of them were not conspicuous at all in the crowd, and there were no more scrutinizing eyes, which made them feel much more relaxed.
They were not in a hurry, just walked from one store to another, and occasionally bought something interesting that they liked.
As for the burden of bargaining, it was completely left to Lei Min. It seemed that she quite enjoyed the process and looked like she was enjoying it.
After walking a third of the way, Lei Min already had a delicate copper cane and a high-voltage cable containing superconducting material in his hand.
The cane was purchased in a boutique. It is said to be an antique from Europe. The cane is one meter long and is inlaid with many gems.
Lei Min has no interest in gems. The only thing she likes is the copper material and the retractable design. In the end, this cane only cost three crystal cores, and the boss secretly felt that he had taken advantage of it.
The high-voltage wires were purchased at a large grocery store, where they are sold according to the weight of the processed materials. After all, it is the end of the world, and except for a few places, most areas have cut off power supply.
Lei Min easily found what she wanted. She was very satisfied. After coming out of the store, she was planning to show off to the other two people. As a result, she found that Lin Qingqing and Wen Ling were already waiting for her at the door.
The two of them had their hands full of things. Upon seeing this, Lei Min quickly ran over to help: "Why did you buy so many things? What are they?"
"Electric stove, electric water heater, storage battery, hand-held lamp? And... electric hot pot?"
"There are only a few crystal cores in all these gadgets. Captain, why did you buy these? In the apocalypse, where can power be supplied except for a few places? You must have been deceived, right?" Lei Min said in confusion, their captain is not such a person.
But neither of the two people in front of them spoke. Lin Qingqing looked at her with soft eyes and a bright smile on her face!
? ? ?
"I-I'll go"! Only then did Lei Min react, "You...what do you mean? It's not what I imagined, is it?"
Seeing that she understood, Lin Qingqing and Wen Ling nodded in unison.
"You are too cruel, am I just a battery in your eyes?" Lei Min cried sadly, "And there is no remuneration for labor at all"!
"Don't worry, I won't treat you badly. From now on, you will be in charge of the team's crystal cores"! Lin Qingqing quickly patted her shoulder, as if she was afraid that she would regret it.
"You are leaving the financial power to me? Captain, are you too casual?" Lei Min wondered, something was wrong.
But before she had time to think about it, Lin Qingqing had already taken the electric hot pot from Lei Min's arms and handed her the bag containing the crystal core.
"Leave it to you, Vice Captain Lei and Chief Financial Officer, let's go look elsewhere now"! After saying that, he pointed to a weapons store opposite to Lei Min.
No matter how you look at this posture, it looks like two eldest ladies are going shopping with the housekeeper.
"That's not right! Why do I feel like I've got another job for myself?"
"Damn the property manager, the captain is too cunning, you just threw the crystal core to me because you were too lazy to count"!
"Ah, you guessed it right"! Lin Qingqing pretended to be surprised.
Lei Min: "..."
Captain, tell me, where did you learn this shamelessness?
Wen Ling held Lin Qingqing's hand along the way and gloated at Lei Min's shriveled appearance, and couldn't help but sigh: Sure enough, ginger is still hotter with age! From now on, no one can mess with the captain! !
The three of them were laughing and joking while browsing the trading market. In the eyes of others, they looked like they were simple and ignorant of the world.
Lin Qingqing secretly glanced at a few sneaky figures. These people had been following them since they went out in the morning. She could guess where it came from, but she didn't know if the people and things she encountered before were deliberately probing.
Lei Min and Wen Ling didn't know about this, and Lin Qingqing didn't tell them yet. She wanted to see what the purpose of these people was.
"The people at Shuangqiao base are not very good at tracking." Lin Qingqing lowered her eyes and pretended not to know all this.
