Chapter 306: Chapter 111 I Definitely Didn’t Take This Road on Purpose

The eagles came early and left early too.

After lunch, they left with fifty-seven crystals, a tremendous amount for them.

For Dragon Palace base to kill Evolutionary Zombies and accumulate fifty-seven crystals was very difficult, or rather, it came at a great cost that couldn’t be achieved by just thinking about it.

It wasn’t as simple as it was for Lin Fan.

"There is a black box," Wang Kai pointed to the long box on the ground.

Everyone looked at the box, knowing it came with the eagles when they arrived at the district. They didn’t expect that the people would leave and forget the box.

"Could they have forgotten to take it with them?"

Someone suggested.

"They didn’t forget to take it; they left it here on purpose," Gu Hang shook his head. The eagles were the most elite soldiers. They might forget to eat, but they would never forget something important.

Gu Hang placed the box on the table.

He opened it.

Curious, everyone gathered around like a group of curious babies, including Lin Fan, who was eager with anticipation for what the unknown held.

Click!

The black box opened.

Inside, the contents confused ordinary people, but they recognized the knives and had an inkling that this might be something Dragon Palace base deliberately left for them.

Looking at the contents, Gu Hang exclaimed, "This is a power-enhanced exoskeleton. The eagles said earlier that they could hardly kill Evolutionary Zombies without these suits. They only had two, and he’s left one of them here."

Lin Fan wasn’t concerned about these things, but he understood that sometimes help you consider trivial could be seen as a huge favor in someone else’s eyes, a favor so immense they could only repay it by giving what they considered their best.

It reminded him of a news story he had seen before.

A simple meal’s kindness led someone to search for over a decade just to return the favor. It might seem like an overreaction for a meal to anyone who could eat their fill, but to those who were helped, that meal could have been life-saving.

"They really didn’t need to do this," Lin Fan said.

Gu Hang replied, "But in their eyes, it was necessary."

Lin Fan looked at the equipment before him and whispered, "Emitting a faint luster, this is equipment charged with Crystal Energy. Gu Hang, why don’t you try it on, see what it can do?"

If it was a gift, then it should be kept.

With his speed, returning the item was not an issue, just a matter of moving a bit faster.

But what then?

The eagles clearly would feel bad, and he could guess exactly what they’d say—they’d insist that they knew how capable he was and that this was the best way they could think of to repay him, even though the item might be trivial to him...

Yes, thinking about it, the situation was indeed awkward.

It’s like helping a poor family that insists on giving you their very best, which could be a bowl of sour meat. Showing disgust would be truly hurtful.

"So cool."

A group of kids surrounded him, their eyes sparkling.

Gu Zicheng’s eyes sparkled too; he liked what boys typically liked but had buried those feelings due to his family’s situation.

As for Feifei and the others, they weren’t as interested; they preferred magical transformations like Barba-Lala Fairy...

Wearing the power-enhanced exoskeleton, Gu Hang looked completely mechanized, even his head was covered in modified gear.

Gu Hang tested the exoskeleton’s capabilities in front of everyone.

His running speed has increased.

This wasn’t just a slight improvement but a significant boost, which made Gu Hang believe that the Dragon Palace base was gradually finding new ways to combat zombies. He always had faith that the power-enhanced exoskeleton would continue to improve.

"How does it feel?" Lin Fan asked.

Gu Hang replied, "It’s great, the speed has increased, and the defense is strong. Plus, this straight knife is incredibly sharp. Wearing this suit, I think killing four or five ordinary zombies should be no problem."

This was confidence.

To Lin Fan, this confirmed that hope still existed in the apocalyptic world.

It wasn’t just Sunshine District working hard; others elsewhere were striving too.

Lin Fan thought it best for Gu Hang to wear the suit.

Gu Hang looked at Lin Fan.

His expression made his intention clear, almost as if he was saying, "Ah... can I have this equipment, please?"

Gu Hang didn’t speak, after all, it was a gift for Lin Fan, and he couldn’t presume ownership. There were others in the district besides him.

Perhaps the others hadn’t noticed.

But if he always took it for granted, it would surely leave a bad impression on everyone else.

Lin Fan said with a smile, "Gu Hang, you keep it. You have extensive combat experience and have received the most professional training. This suit will be most effective in your hands."

Hearing this,

Gu Hang looked to everyone and vowed, "From now on, I will go through fire and water for the safety of Sunshine District, even if it costs me my life."

After he spoke, he looked at everyone sincerely.

Everyone nodded, showing they believed what Gu Hang said.

Lin Fan said, "I believe our future is bright. I’m actively clearing the city of zombies. The brains of Evolutionary Zombies contain Crystals that can be used to enhance equipment. In the future, when I come across Evolutionary Zombies, I’ll save the Crystals."
