Chapter 512: Chapter 146 Are You a Cheap Person_3

Often, obtaining just one crystal could take a very long time.

And it was always accompanied by all sorts of dangers.

Now, with so many crystals laid out before them, it naturally had a strong impact on them.

When had crystals become so easy to acquire?

Zhu Cheng said, "Before, my brother Lin didn’t know that crystals could enhance one’s abilities. If he’d known earlier, given his personality, he would definitely have fed me crystals every day."

Zhong Hanguo looked at Zhu Cheng, then patted his shoulder and said, "From now on, I think we’re going to be very happy."

Ye Qian slowly said, "With these crystals, our improvement will be immense. The energy contained within them can make our Awakener abilities stronger, allowing us to deal with zombies more easily in the future."

Zhu Cheng felt helpless and depressed as he said, "It seems like there’s no need to enhance my ability; it’s just watching zombies, after all. Whether it gets stronger or not, it’s all the same."

Ye Qian shook her head and said, "Every Awakener’s ability has its unique value. Once your ability is enhanced, you will discover many things you didn’t know before."

Listening to Ye Qian, Zhu Cheng thought it made sense and decided to give it a try. He picked up a White Crystal and carefully examined its surface.

Thinking that the crystals grew inside a zombie’s head.

Wrapped in thick brain matter, the thought made him feel extremely disgusted.

But the crystal in front of him was clean.

It didn’t repulse him.

Thereafter.

The four Awakeners from Sunshine District took the crystals and felt their abilities growing. For Ye Qian, perhaps this was the moment of emergence.

When they were with Chen Sheng before.

On a good day, each person could get at most two White Crystals in a day, and on a bad day, just one crystal, and that was also an easier target.

Of course, those crystals were all obtained through Chen Sheng’s disguise.

Now...

What was laid out before them were Black Crystals.

Their treatment had improved in an instant.

It was far better than before, by who knows how much.

Perhaps this was what they called ’surviving a great disaster only to enjoy greater fortune later.’

Room 704.

Lin Fan was chatting casually with Professor Xia on the satellite phone.

"I never expected you to come across two Awakeners, that’s really great."

Professor Xia on the phone was sincerely happy and relieved for Lin Fan.

Lin Fan said, "Professor Xia, what I’m about to say is somewhat important. The two Awakeners I brought back told me that the way to enhance an Awakener’s strength is by consuming crystals."

"So it’s using crystals to enhance abilities after all," murmured Professor Xia to himself. "Ever since I learned about the existence of Awakeners, those who are immune to the zombie virus, I’ve been suspecting that Awakeners could enhance their strength with the help of crystals. But such an experiment must be carried out by Awakeners themselves, and if the hypothesis is wrong, it would be fatal. So there hasn’t been a concrete conclusion. Clearly, Awakeners outside are willing to take the risk to strengthen themselves, hence discovering the correct method to enhance."

Lin Fan said, "This is good news. Since the emergence of Awakeners, I’ve known that humanity wouldn’t easily be wiped out by the apocalypse. Now that we’ve found out how to increase the power of Awakeners, I feel like I can already see victory ahead."

Professor Xia exclaimed, "Indeed, Lin Fan, have you thought about sharing this method of enhancement with others?"

For Professor Xia, if someone held such a secret and didn’t tell anyone, that person would definitely evolve faster than anyone else.

Perhaps one day, other people might discover the method to enhance strength, but by that time, they would already be far behind.

If someone had become an Awakener at the very beginning of the apocalypse and knew how to enhance abilities, they might have reached an unimaginable level by now.

Lin Fan went to the balcony, looked into the dark night outside, and said softly, "Of course I have. This isn’t really a secret. Some people already know, and others don’t. When Awakeners can’t unite and move forward, such ignorance is a disaster for those who are unaware."

"That’s true," agreed Professor Xia.

A moment later, the call ended.

Lin Fan didn’t go back to his room to sleep, instead, he leaned on the railing, staring into the distant night. In the beginning, he would occasionally hear the low growls of zombies, but now there were no sounds of zombies nearby. If he listened carefully, he could hear the survivors living in the stores chatting and the success of some survivors in pairing up as they stayed up late playing poker together.

The next day.

Early morning.

"Old Master Zhou, what are you doing?"

Lin Fan saw that Master Zhou was not chatting with Master Wang as usual, but was cutting a car door with a cutter. The sound of cutting and the sparks that flew signified that the old master was busily engaged in an important task.

Master Zhou laughed and said, "Little Zhong from yesterday wants a shield. Nowadays, finding a proper shield is not an easy task, but luckily I have some skills in this area, so I agreed to take on the job of making shields."

"Wow, he’s really lucky to have Master Zhou himself working on it. If he knew that Master Zhou used to be a military industrial expert, he’d probably be too excited to sleep," Lin Fan said with a smile.

He knew Zhong Hanguo’s capability, just like what he had already seen; using a shield to block the onslaught of zombies, thus creating an opportunity for his teammates to strike.

The previous shield had been shattered during the fight against the Tyrant.
