115 The Crystal Cores
Just as Luo Feng was about to be on his guard again, Tang Susu comforted her, “This is a good mutation.”
The three others, who knew nothing, looked at her in surprise and disbelief.
Tang Susu briefly explained the situation and then said, “You didn’t get infected after being bitten by the zombies. Instead, you awakened to your superpowers. Do you rember the fire you released last ti? That’s your superpower.”
Cheng Cheng nodded and fell into a deep thought. “But…”
“Because you’re affected by the virus, you will have symptoms similar to the zombies, but you can still control yourself not to eat people. This… This is sothing that can help you suppress your impulses.”
Tang Susu took out a few more pure white or grayish-white “stones” from the small bag. Those were the T2 Crystal Cores they had gathered these days.
It was only one-tenth of the amount that I had. The rest was in her system inventory. There were about 80 to 90 of them.
Although the T2 Crystal Core was the most typical Crystal Core, it was still not a simple task for non-tahumans to kill a T2 zombie at the current stage.
Their family had gradually gotten used to fighting T2 zombies through training. They were just faster and stronger and her brothers had the intention to challenge zombies that were more powerful.
During this ti, Tang Susu had been gathering Crystal Cores until her hands were tired. Although they didn’t need them for the ti being, it felt good to keep them at the ready. It also made them feel like they had a lot of money.
Compared to T3 Crystal Cores, which ca in all kinds of different colors, Crystal Cores belonging to zombies that were in the early stages of T2 were grayish-white as if they contained impurities, while the better ones were closer to pure white.
Most of them were oval in shapes, but so of them were in irregular shapes. They were as hard and smooth as cobblestones.
When swallowed, it would turn into a jelly-like texture, which was smooth and refreshing. It also had a mild sweet taste.
Cheng Cheng couldn’t help but salivate. Her fingers moved slightly, but she quickly retracted them.
Luo Feng suddenly recalled, “These are the stones from a zombie’s head!”
Tang Susu took the opportunity to teach them about Crystal Cores. Before she left, she reminded them, “But don’t absorb too much, or there’s a risk of exploding from the inside.”
Cheng Cheng could understand it more. “One needs to be strong enough to bear a crown. Since I can survive as a tahuman and beco more powerful than others, then I must bear the cross of it all!”
A trace of admiration flashed across Tang Susu’s face. So, why did she have to waste her ti explaining these things to them at all?
She was not soone that was stingy. In the apocalypse, information was also an important advantage!
Outdated information would get many people killed if they were not careful.
Those who had the newest information would often have a unique advantage and could make preparations as soon as possible.
On the other hand, if she helped them, they might be able to help her at so point in the future…
When Cheng Cheng understood that she wasn’t a man-eating zombie and that there was still a way out. She gratefully held Tang Susu’s hand.
“Thank you for telling this. When I co back after killing the zombies, I will give you back the two Crystal Cores that I just ate.”
Because she had raised her child alone, she had developed an independent personality. She did not want to trouble others, nor did she like to owe others. She had to be explicit about everything… Tang Susu understood this ntality very well.
“You don’t have to be so polite with ,” she gave Cheng Cheng two more. “Rest for a while. When you’re more familiar with your powers, you can go out and try then.”
Although Cheng Cheng accepted the Crystal Cores, she still said, “I rember everything that we owe your family. If there’s anything I can help you with, don’t be a stranger!”
“Alright!” Tang Susu liked how straightforward she was. Even if it wasn’t strictly business, it wasn’t a bad idea to make so new friends.
The two of them exchanged glances with each other and smiled as they appreciated each other.
Tang Susu then asked her about everything that had happened, from being bitten to the awakening of her superpower.
There were many details that had not been ntioned in the ga, and Tang Susu didn’t dare to make any mistakes.
Luo Feng was listening attentively from the side. Everyone wanted to beco stronger during the apocalypse to increase their chances of survival.
In the end, he hesitated for a mont and couldn’t help but ask with a complicated expression on his face, “How do you know all this…”
