Chapter 174: The Spoils
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Tang Susu puffed up her cheeks. “Despite having used up a lot of
five-elental talismans, it’s all good because we have eliminated this hidden danger, at least.”
“So people went missing in Qingzhou Shelter earlier. Maybe it has sothing to do with this.” Tang Mingzhou furrowed his brows in disgust. “How’s Mingchu doing?”
“He fainted due to lack of oxygen.” Tang Susu bought the automatic excavating tool recomnded by 008 and placed it where her brother was and let it excavate automatically.
In less than half a minute, it revealed a cage made of countless tree roots in front of the three of them!
“The tree has beco so smart! It’s storing food in reserve!” Tang Mingqi grumbled and quickly pulled the person out of the pit that was a few ters deep.
Although the two of them usually wanted to kill each other when they fought, he felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Tang Mingchu unconscious, with a face full of dust.
When Mingchu was removed from the tree cage, Tang Susu quickly fed a bottle of the special-grade healing serum she had bought to her third brother.
While the serum was only the size of a fingernail, it was invaluable, but it was also extrely useful.
After a while, the young man coughed twice, and then his handso face crumpled. “Pfft! What is this? It’s so bitter!”
“You’re eating dirt!” Tang Susu leaned over and reminded him. She enjoyed the look of disbelief on his face.
“Susu…” His eyes widened instantly and his voice was full of energy. He did not sound like soone who was on the verge of death at all. He sat up abruptly and grabbed her shoulders. “Is it really you, Susu?”
Seeing his silly look, Tang Mingqi shook his head and continued to fish out the other “reserves” from the pit.
However, he knew that these people were not fully prepared like Mingchu. Otherwise, the roots would not have given him special treatnt. It was afraid that he would run away, so it even made a cage of roots for him.
The others weren’t trapped, but they weren’t breathing either. So were already cut in half at the waist, and so had already rotted.
“Susu, look at this.” Tang Mingzhou remained silent for a while. Then, he suddenly walked up to her and handed her a “pink diamond” the size of a pigeon’s egg.
However, this wasn’t a pink diamond. It was clearly the crystal core of the mutated tree!
“It’s a T3 mutated plant that’s becoming a T4!” Tang Susu was astonished. “Another one of us can awaken our superpower. Not every mutant plant or animal has a crystal core. We’re so lucky.”
“Then what are the chances of mutant plants and animals producing a crystal core?” Tang Mingqi asked curiously.
“One in ten thousand, and the probability doesn’t increase just because their levels are higher.” Tang Susu touched it. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. “The crystal cores of mutated animals and plants can awaken special abilities almost at a 100% rate!”
Tang Mingchu imdiately got up on the spot. “Then, let’s look for mutant plant and animal crystal cores tomorrow!”
“Stupid!” Tang Mingzhou knocked on his head. “The probability of a zombie’s crystal core activating a superpower is small, but every zombie has a crystal core in their head. Mutant plant and animal crystal cores have a high probability of producing a superpower, but not every mutant plant and animal has a crystal core. The probability is almost the sa.”
Tang Susu nodded. “That’s true.”
However, Tang Mingchu was not stupid. He was just too lazy to think about it. If he could get away with fighting physically, he would not use his brain.
This ti, because he had escaped death and encountered Susu, he was so happy that he wasn’t at his brightest mont.
He was in good spirits, though. “If it wasn’t for the armor, you would have found being coiled up. The roots are too good at coiling stuff.”
Tang Susu was speechless.
“Whoa! Bai Yanhui?!”
Tang Mingqi suddenly let out a cry of surprise. Everyone looked at him, and Tang susu was even more curious. “Who?”
“What the hell is he doing here? Didn’t he go out to find more zombie crystal cores? I didn’t expect to be neighbors with this playboy.”
His words reminded Tang Susu of soone, a cannon fodder who was killed by the male lead seconds after flirting with the female lead.
“He’s a rich man’s son. He’s a good-for-nothing, but he’s not that annoying.
We t at Qingzhou Shelter and he helped us once.” Tang Mingqi gave a simple introduction.
Tang Mingzhou added, “He was also bitten by a zombie, and his Ice-type ability awakened. He seems to be even more powerful than Cheng Cheng.”
Ice elent was part of the Nature-type of powers. It was naturally rarer than the five basic elental powers, but it was also harder to control.
At the ntion of Cheng Cheng, Tang Susu suddenly rembered that she had left her unconscious body sowhere else.
Just as she was about to go over to take a look, she saw her sitting up from the ground with difficulty, holding her waist. She seed to be seriously injured.
Tang Susu put away her digging tools and threw a low-grade healing serum to her second brother. “Let’s see if we can save this person.”
It would be such a pity if he died before he could even flirt with the female lead.
Tang Susu walked over to Cheng Cheng with a bottle of dium-grade healing serum. “This might be useful.”
Cheng Cheng didn’t ask what it was or where she got it from. She raised her neck and drank it with complete trust.
She didn’t expect it to take effect imdiately. When she was wrapped around by the vine and violently shaken, she thought it would break her in half.
“Thank you for saving again.” She vaguely rembered that it was Tang Susu who had flown into the air and caught her.
Tang Susu was about to ask her about Xiaoyuan and her current situation, especially the result of her search for her family. It would have a big impact on her.
Before she could open her mouth, the sound of car horns could be heard not far away.
“They are from the shelter.” Cheng Cheng stood up from the ground, the surprise on her face even more obvious. “The dicine is very effective!”
Tang Susu saw Mr. Tang coming over with so people, so she hurriedly went over to tell him the good news. But who knew that she would see a few familiar faces?
“Hello, Ms. Tang.”
The gorgeous woman walked over in high heels as if she was walking on flat ground. She was in a better state than the last ti they t.
“Hello,” she said. Tang susu gave Mr. Tang a look, and Mr. Tang imdiately understood it. He was so happy that he wanted to go over and take a look.
Soone suddenly grabbed him and said, “Be careful. We don’t know if that vine will suddenly co out again. It’s very difficult for us to deal with it. We have to reduce our casualties as much as possible.”
The one who spoke was a middle-aged man with a square face. The gorgeous woman and the man were part of the group of people his family had t when they went to find drinking water the last ti.
She wouldn’t consider them friends or foes, but the post-apocalyptic world was small indeed.
The other party’s tone clearly showed that he was certain that her third brother was dead.
Mr. Tang frowned. “My son’s doing very well. What do you an by casualties? Don’t just curse people like that!”
The others thought he couldn’t accept the truth, so they comforted him one by one.
As the place where they parked their car was a little farther from the plot of woodland, and there were trees blocking their view, they did not see Tang Mingzhou and the other two.
However, the three of them walked out of the small plot of forests quickly.
They were all tall and strong, and from afar, one could tell that they were all handso n.
They were even supporting a guy who was jumping on one leg.
The gorgeous woman was stunned, and the middle-aged man also revealed a look of disbelief.
The two of them quickly exchanged a glance. It was unknown what information they had exchanged, but it finished in just an instant.
Tang Susu and Mr. Tang didn’t notice and went over to help their family.
From a distance, she could hear the rich heir giving an excited speech.
“Bro, you’re really my bro, my brother from another brother! Don’t worry. From now on, as long as I’m alive, I’ll take good care of you, Mingqi!”
As the man was speaking, he inadvertently saw Tang Susu in front of him. He was stunned and then fell to the ground with a thud.
Tang Mingqi kicked him.
The young man snorted coldly.. “Keep your eyes to yourself!”
