Chapter 124 The Dodder of the Apocalyptic Powerhouse 10

Jiang Yufeng felt even more annoyed that Cheng Yan had beaten him to his words, and that the person he wanted to be close to was more natural when facing others than when facing him.

Cheng Yan inexplicably felt the temperature around him drop a few degrees, and subconsciously rubbed his arms, muttering to himself, "Strange, why do I suddenly feel a little cold?"

Ye Shuwan saw everything, and lowered her head to hide the smile that was playing at the corners of her mouth.

Jiang Yufeng misunderstood her actions and, disregarding his anger, comforted her, saying, "Thanks to you for blocking it, I wasn't seriously injured."

Mentioning this, Shen Yanke still had some doubts in his mind, and tilted his head to ask, "Ayu, with your skills, how could you suddenly be scratched? And what was going on between you and Xiaoye at the gas station?"

Jiang Yufeng recalled the scene: "Suddenly I felt something trying to invade my brain, and this feeling only disappeared after the zombie died."

Shen Yanke tapped his fingertips lightly as he habitually thought, his mind racing: "It seems our previous guess might be right. Zombies also have some special abilities, which we can call superpowers. They can not only control ordinary zombies, but also control people... I wonder if all zombies can have superpowers after evolving to a certain level. If that's the case, it's terrible. We need to let more people know this news as soon as possible."

Jiang Yufeng nodded: "I will inform the base commander of this matter, and he should find a way to notify the others after receiving the news."

Cheng Yan hadn't thought that far ahead. He slumped lazily in his seat, letting his imagination run wild: "Hey, even zombies can evolve. If only our superpowers could be upgraded too."

This time, Shen Yanke didn't laugh at his idea: "It should be possible, it's just that we haven't found it yet."

The evolution of zombies is so rapid that now there are even zombies with superpowers.

However, there are very few people with superpowers among humans, and the method to upgrade superpowers has not yet been found.

This made Jiang Yufeng and the other three feel a greater sense of urgency.

"Um, I have a question." Ye Shuwan suddenly spoke up, breaking the heavy atmosphere in the car.

Cheng Yan couldn't stand this kind of atmosphere, so he immediately started to joke around, "Hmm? What's wrong? Xiao Ye, is there something you want to ask? Is it related to methods to improve your superpowers?"

He stumbled upon this by accident. Although that was exactly what Ye Shuwan wanted to say, she couldn't explain the source of the information, so she could only hint at it indirectly:

"Um, no, I just wanted to ask, after you awaken your superpowers, are you able to see what's inside a zombie's head?"

Ye Shuwan's voice was a little soft, and it was drowned out by the sound of the car. Cheng Yan only vaguely heard "zombie" and "head", so he assumed that the little girl was scared because it was the first time she had seen so many dead zombies: "What did you see? Zombie brains? Don't be afraid, Ye. You'll get used to it after seeing it a few more times."

"Not this one." Ye Shuwan was speechless.

Sitting next to her, Jiang Yufeng keenly caught the words "after awakening superpowers" and "in the zombie's head" in her mouth: "Don't interrupt, continue."

Cheng Yan then realized he had misunderstood: "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Xiao Ye, please continue, please continue."

"There's a stone inside the zombie's head. I couldn't see it before, but I suddenly saw it after I awakened my superpower. Can you see it?"

The crystal core inside the zombie's brain will be discovered sooner or later, but the sooner it is discovered, the more beneficial it will be for humanity.

Of course, it's not that she has a heroic sentiment of saving the world.

However, the second task required her to survive, and she suspected that the task would only be completed if she lived until the end of the apocalypse.

Therefore, human strength must be increased in order to wipe out the zombies as soon as possible.

This incident also made her realize that her superpowers were still too weak.

We must kill as many zombies as possible to level up!

Jiang Yufeng and the other three are currently considered her teammates, and they will be working together in the future.

She needs to upgrade, and it's hard to avoid dealing with the crystal core issue.

Then let's just guide them to discover this, so that if they encounter even stronger zombies in the future, they'll have more helpers.

She asked Qiqi, and no one in this world has awakened the healing ability.

That would give her a lot more room to maneuver.

Cheng Yan asked curiously, "What stone? Xiao Ye, you're not mistaken, are you?"

"I'm sure I didn't see it wrong. It's a small crystal-like stone, about the size of a fingernail. No, the stone in the brain of that superpowered zombie at the gas station is bigger than the ones in the other zombies' brains. It's about the size of two fingernails." Ye Shuwan gestured with her hand.

Shen Yanke became interested, and even He Sihuai slowed down his driving to listen attentively to her description.

Jiang Yufeng had some guesses in his mind. Just then, a zombie not far away was attracted by the sound of the car and was wandering in this direction: "Stop the car first. Can you see inside this zombie's brain?"

Ye Shuwan glanced at it casually, but actually used her mental powers to investigate: "It's okay, but it's really small, much smaller than the ones in the gas station."

Jiang Yufeng didn't say whether he believed it or not. He got out of the car and killed the zombie. He swirled the knife inside its head and picked out a crystal mixed with red and white filth.

Jiang Yufeng took out the gloves from his spatial storage and put them on. He picked them up, washed them with mineral water, and the crystal revealed its original appearance.

The crystal was too small, so Jiang Yufeng placed it in his palm for easy observation.

The colorless and transparent crystals shimmered brilliantly under the sunlight.

Transparent and crystal clear, without any flaws, as pure as the stars in the summer night sky.

It's hard to imagine that such a filthy and terrifying zombie could contain such a transparent and pure crystal.

The others also got out of the car one after another and surrounded Jiang Yufeng.

Cheng Yan's head was practically glued to the crystal core: "Wow, this is what's inside a zombie's head, it's so beautiful."

"Don't touch it yet." Jiang Yufeng moved Cheng Yan's finger away just before it was about to poke him, and looked at Ye Shuwan, "Is this what you see?"

"Yes, that's it." Ye Shuwan nodded.

Cheng Yan: "What exactly is this?"

He Sihuai pushed up his glasses, and there seemed to be fluid flowing inside the lenses: "Could it be a special kind of energy?"

Upon hearing his words, a vague idea flashed through Jiang Yufeng's mind.

He tentatively touched it with his supernatural power, and the next moment, the fluid inside the crystal flowed into his body through his palm.

Jiang Yufeng let out a muffled groan, and the crystal shattered into dust in an instant.

"Brother Yu!"

"Ayu, how are you?"

The group was shocked to see the vanished crystal and the sudden cold sweat on Jiang Yufeng's forehead.

Ye Shuwan already knew how to use the crystal core, so although she looked flustered, she wasn't too worried.

I just didn't expect Jiang Yufeng to grasp how to use the crystal core so quickly.

The special energy from the crystal stung his body slightly as it entered, but it quickly disappeared, replaced by a feeling of complete relief from fatigue.

After absorbing all the energy, Jiang Yufeng found that his superpower, which used to take a long time to recover after each use, had been replenished. He could even feel a slight improvement in his superpower, though it was very subtle!
