Lin Qingqing thought of a lot in an instant. Although this almost story-like idea had no basis, she still had a strong premonition.
How zombies evolve, no one can tell now, and because of this, anything may happen in the future.
"Captain, what are you thinking about?" Lei Min asked curiously, looking at Lin Qingqing who was meditating silently with empty eyes.
"It's nothing, I'm just guessing about their stories," Lin Qingqing said after coming back to her senses.
"Oh! Captain Jiang and Captain Xu were calling you just now, saying they wanted to discuss the distribution of the spoils."
"Okay, I understand. You and Xiao Lingdang have a rest first, and I'll be back as soon as I go." After Lin Qingqing said that, she got up and walked in the direction of Jiang Xingzhou and the others.
"Is Captain Lin okay? Were you injured just now?" Jiang Xingzhou asked proactively, his attitude much gentler than at the beginning.
"Thank you Captain Jiang for your concern. I was not injured before, but my powers were consumed a bit too much."
"That's good! Captain Lin's strength is really strong," Jiang Xingzhou continued, "That's it. The two power-type zombies previously produced two crystal cores, both of which are earth type, and they just match my superpower attributes. I I want to discuss with the two captains whether these two crystal cores can be mine, and I can offer other crystal cores in exchange."
It turns out that these two second-level zombies were killed by the three of them together, so of course the crystal cores they received had to be equally divided. But it happened that Jiang Xingzhou was suitable for it, so if he wanted to obtain these two crystal nuclei, he needed to compensate the other two people.
Lin Qingqing glanced at the two sturdy corpses and thought to herself: These two are indeed twins.
"I don't have any problem." Lin Qingqing didn't care.
"Captain Jiang is really lucky. He got two crystal cores at once." Xu Haijiao curled his lips and said, "Since Captain Jiang got his wish, does Captain Jiang, the member of our Haijiao Team, also lose?" It’s time to give an explanation”?
"Well, this matter is indeed Lao Zhang's mistake, but there is also an element of accident in it. As the captain, I can't let Lao Zhang die, can I?"
Jiang Xingzhou said casually, he was in a good mood after getting the benefit.
"Otherwise, in addition to compensating the crystal cores for the two captains, I will also give a separate portion to Captain Xu, which can be regarded as an apology to Captain Xu on behalf of Lao Zhang."
Jiang Xingzhou apologized for Lao Zhang and was willing to compensate. Xu Haijiao knew that his goal had been achieved.
He didn't push the envelope anymore, he said a few polite words and accepted the apology smoothly. After that, the team member became a thing of the past and would no longer be mentioned.
Lin Qingqing saw all this in her eyes. Without saying anything, she took the hundred first-level crystal nuclei handed over by Jiang Xingzhou and left.
In the doomsday, human life is sometimes not worth a penny, but sometimes it can be settled with money.
Lin Qingqing did not ask how much this "price of life" was worth, but she thought that given Jiang Xingzhou's generosity, the amount should not be too small.
After cleaning up all the zombies, everyone really breathed a sigh of relief. After briefly handling the zombie corpses, everyone came to the computer room of the control center, which was the room where the alloy door was blown away by the second-level zombie.
The computer room was in a mess, cabinets collapsed to the side, and various documents were scattered everywhere.
There were also ruined tables and chairs and trampled remains of corpses. At a glance, there was no room to even put a foot down in the entire room.
"Lu Xin, come and see if the control system is damaged. Others should rest first," Jiang Xingzhou said while raising his hand to wave the person with hearing abilities over.
It turns out that the superpower named Lu Xin is still a technician. No wonder Jiang Xingzhou always ensures his safety first. Others immediately looked at the tall and thin young man with clarity.
When Lu Xin heard this, he picked up a piece of clean white paper and wiped his hands, then walked over the obstacles on the ground to the other side of the room.
There are a row of four iron cabinets here, some are still intact, and some have been damaged. Lu Xin stepped forward and opened the somewhat deformed metal cabinet door, revealing the dense wires and buttons inside.
Lu Xin took out the tools from his small bag and began to inspect the facilities inside.
Half an hour later...
"Report to the captain. After preliminary inspection, the backup power supply is still running. The cold storage should be intact, but all the control system lines are damaged. It may be troublesome. I will need to spend at least four to five hours to repair and debug," Lu Xin said.
Jiang Xingzhou lowered his head and looked at the time. It was four o'clock in the afternoon. It would probably be dark by the time he opened the cold storage door. Everyone is tired now. If we rush back overnight, the risk factor will increase exponentially.
After pondering for a while, he decided to spend the night here and open the cold storage tomorrow morning.
Although the others were a little uneasy about staying the night, they didn't say anything. After all, it was a good thing not to leave empty-handed.
This situation often happens when the team is on a mission. Sometimes, after working for a long time, I find that something is missing or can no longer be used. If this happens, you can only admit that you are unlucky.
Since we were staying overnight, safety was the primary concern. Therefore, as a person with special abilities, Lu Xin had to temporarily put down his work and go explore the surrounding environment with everyone.
Each of the three teams was responsible for one position. Lu Xin first used his hearing ability to detect the general situation around him, and then the captains led the team members to clear out possible hidden dangers.
They centered on the courtyard where the cold storage was located, and expanded another fifty meters outward. There were no other second-level zombies around. This distance was almost the boundary of the first-level zombie sensing range.
Only by dealing with all the zombies in this area can we ensure that no zombies will harass them tonight.
The Haijiao team came back first, followed by Jiang Xingzhou and his team. They found two zombie-free offices on the second floor and prepared dinner inside.
It wasn't until everyone was almost finished eating that Lin Qingqing came back with Lei Min and Wen Ling.
"Captain Lin is in trouble"? Jiang Xingzhou asked with concern.
"No, I passed by a convenience store and went in to find some personal items." After saying this, Lin Qingqing nodded to everyone, found an office, walked in, and closed the door.
After hearing this, no one asked any more questions. As long as they didn't hold back, no one would find trouble at this time.
Lin Qingqing didn't lie. It was a fact that she was looking for something, but that was just incidental. The real reason why they came back late was to "check for gaps".
Lu Xin's hearing ability was far less powerful than Wen Ling's perception ability, and Lin Qingqing could not completely leave the safety to others, so she took the opportunity to lead Wen Ling and Lei Min to follow the captains to carefully monitor the entire area. Screened carefully.
Not to mention that they actually found a few fish that slipped through the net.
"It's safe now, have a good sleep, and you can go back and hand in the mission tomorrow"! Lei Min stretched and said.
After a simple dinner, except for the night watchers, the rest of the tired people quickly fell asleep.
A night of silence.
