Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse-Chapter 276 - : Cleaning the Scene

Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Cleaning the Scene

“Aren’t crystal cores meant to be absorbed by Special Ability Users? Isn’t it good to absorb more and advance in level?”

Ye Shuai also asked with confusion.

Jian Zongzheng couldn’t help but shake his head. Did these three have no common sense at all?

“You can tell you haven’t been attending the lectures properly. Now, everyone in the base knows about the side effects of absorbing too many crystal cores, and you guys don’t know anything?”

Zhang Xiaoai pouted and said, although she wasn’t a Special Ability User, she still knew about this common sense.

“We’ll talk about it later, let’s deal with this place first,” Jian Zongzheng said, as he formed a sharp knife in his hand and continued to hack at the zombies around him.

...

Xia Mufei, though puzzled by how the ordinary Xia Ying knew so much about Special Abilities, didn’t dare to be negligent with the zombies in front of him, and he felt that he was beginning to run out of strength.

Among the hundred or so zombies that came running in from outside the parking lot, there were even about twenty Mutated Zombies. The battle with the mutant animals had left everyone a little tired, but they still had plenty of strength to deal with these zombies.

“Brother Banzi, I want to go kill zombies too,” Rong Yuan said to the two from inside the vehicle.

“You…”

Ban Xiaobo actually wanted to express his concern for Rong Yuan’s arm…

“It’s okay, Brother Banzi, I’ll watch over him,” Xu Chao said.

Ban Xiaobo was getting restless himself; it had been a long time since he had killed any zombies. Watching the group outside slaughtering with blood boiling, he reminisced about the days of wandering in the Apocalypse with a few others. It was tiring, bitter, and dangerous, but that was what being a man was all about!

“Alright! Let’s do this together!” Ban Xiaobo decided.

With the zombies outside not being too many, they needn’t worry overly about Rong Yuan’s safety. Moreover, his Wind Element Ability really needed more practice.

As soon as the three of them opened the car door and got out, zombies pounced at them. Xu Chao kicked away a zombie blocking the car door, slammed the door shut with a “bang,” and then began to slice at the zombies with the weapons he had stored in his space.

Since Xu Chao would need to use his Space Element Ability to retrieve the car later, he dared not expend too much energy. After killing two zombies around him, he stayed by Rong Yuan’s side, ensuring his safety from zombie scratches or bites.

However, Rong Yuan’s performance greatly surprised the two of them.

Rong Yuan had just evolved his Metal Element Ability a few days ago, and he was already able to imitate Metal Element Ability Users by forming metal spikes to attack the zombies. Furthermore, he could accurately aim at the zombies’ temples, and it turned out that one hit was all he needed for the Ordinary Zombies!

Ban Xiaobo noticed that the color of Rong Yuan’s metal spikes was different from that of other Metal Element Ability Users—it didn’t look like the color of iron.

But he had no time to continue his investigation as a Water Element Mutated Zombie suddenly attacked him. He dispersed the Water Arrow shot by the Water Element Zombie with a Wind Ball and then attacked the zombie from the side.

Seeing that everyone was handling the zombies with ease, Su Jin withdrew her Venus Flytrap. Although the plant could consume zombies, there was one thing that bothered her: it seemed to swallow the zombies’ crystal cores as well…

So, to collect more crystal cores, she put the Venus Flytrap back in her space. Feeling a hint of grievance from Xiao Cui, Su Jin couldn’t help but smile. She’d let it eat its fill when she had the chance!

The hundred or so zombies were quickly dealt with by the dozen or so people, leaving only a few by Ban Xiaobo. And it seemed like they didn’t need help.

The group didn’t dare to rest yet and started digging up the crystal cores and beast cores scattered all over the ground.

“Xiao Jin, what about the corpses of these mutant animals?” Huang Yunxiang walked over to Su Jin, who was digging up the crystal core of a Mutated Lion, and asked softly.

There were more people who came along today, and she couldn’t stop worrying that Su Jin might accidentally expose her Space.

“Don’t worry, auntie, we don’t need these, just the Beast Cores will be enough,”

Su Jin said cheerfully, because the Beast Core she had dug up was simply too large, even twice as big as the one from the brown bear on North Mountain!

Huang Yunxiang was also pleasantly surprised, cleaning the Beast Core with her Water Element Ability.

The clean and transparent Beast Core shone with a moist luster, and although impurities were visible to the naked eye, that wasn’t an issue for her Space!

This one could probably be worth as many Zombie Crystal Nuclei, truly a big score.

“Hehe, it’s like picking up money,”

Lin Xiuyuan hummed a tune while bending over to scoop out Zombie Crystal Cores, not the least bit worried that someone might fight them for the Crystal Cores, since that other team had quite a few acquaintances and they were still battling the Zombies.

Tsk tsk, their speed really needs improvement.

“Later, we’ll burn the bodies of these Mutant Animals,” Su Jin told Lu Hao.

The mutated lion was huge, but she was worried about contaminating her Space with too much blood, and just like Huang Yunxiang said, she wouldn’t risk exposing her Space to collect these things.

If they left the corpses here, it would attract Zombies or Mutated Plants to consume them, so burning them would be the cleanest solution.

Lu Hao shared the same thought, and together with Lu Guanhai, they each conjured Special Ability Fire and threw it at the corpses scattered on the ground.

At this moment, Rong Yuan had killed four Zombies.

Although this was his first time using his Special Ability in combat and he felt a bit uncomfortable, when his Metal spikes pierced into the Zombies’ bodies or heads, he felt as if he became those very spikes, desiring to be faster, even faster…

It wasn’t until Ban Xiaobo called his name several times that he snapped back to reality.

Xu Chao looked at the Zombies on the ground that had been turned into hedgehogs in amazement. Was Rong Yuan somewhat formidable?

He actually killed 8 Zombies in his first fight? And it seemed like if there were more Zombies in front of him, he could continue killing!

“Rong Yuan, did you hear me speaking?”

What Ban Xiaobo cared about was Rong Yuan’s mental state, as he had been calling out several times only to get a delayed reaction from Rong Yuan whose eyes were filled with excited bloodlust.

“Brother Banzi, I heard you,”

Rong Yuan’s eyes regained clarity, he knew what he was doing, but it seemed he had still caused some concern.

Su Jin and the others also walked over and saw the bodies of the Zombies near Ban Xiaobo and the two others, many of which had fatal wounds caused by a Metal Element Ability User.

Was this Rong Yuan’s doing?

“You can go and pick a few good cars to collect,”

Lu Hao came up and said to Ban Xiaobo.

Ban Xiaobo nodded, glanced at Rong Yuan who had returned to normal, and then confidently led the two towards the direction where the vehicles were parked.

There were still many cars in this parking lot, and upon looking around, they even saw two high-chassis off-road vehicles – unsure how many Xu Chao could fit in his Space.

Xu Chao also took a oil drum and something like a pump out of his Space, causing Su Jin and the others to look on with laughter. Not only did the three of them plan to collect cars, but they also intended to siphon off the gas from other cars?
