Chapter 262

After entering the depths of the store, unless zombies wander into the store, they will not be attracted at the door.

The three of them stood together in the back kitchen, talking in low voices.

The surname of the pair is Qu, the elder sister is called Qu Siling, and the younger brother is called Qu Yan. Qu Siling took out the ice crystal nucleus and asked cautiously, "How do you want to buy this?"

Anyone who has read a lot of eschatological literature knows that normal currency will almost become waste paper soon. Qu Siling thought for a while, although she is not sure whether the world will really be completely reduced to the end of the world and no longer use the national currency, but it is always good to prepare in advance.

Therefore, she deliberately said "how to buy" rather than how much you're going to pay.

Ye Xu immediately understood what she meant, and after pondering for a while, he took out three crystal nuclei. One each of gray, gold, and silver, all of which are special nuclei.

"After the gray core absorbs the power in it, there is a 5% probability of awakening spiritual powers, but there is a 20% probability of becoming a madman. Gold and silver enhance strength and speed respectively, you can choose any one to follow. I will change it. I need ice blue and transparent nuclei, if you have them, you can exchange them. However, the special nuclei in my hand are limited, so I can use other nuclei with You exchange."

Qu Yan looked at her sister, didn't dare to speak, and shut up obediently.

Qu Siling stared at the gray crystal core, and was about to move. But the 20% insanity rate is too high for her to play.

As an ordinary person without powers, she really yearns for powers. But until the critical moment, she will not use her own knowledge to try.

After thinking about it, she took out a few more crystal cores that Ye Xu needed: "I'll replace it with you, I want a gray one, and the rest are gold and silver."

She decided to keep a grey one for herself just in case, and if the situation was really critical, she would try the awakening ability. If it doesn't get to that point, put it away and don't use it indiscriminately.

The ability of gold and silver is very useful to her. No matter what, it can enhance her physical fitness. After using it for her parents, she can feel more at ease.

Ye Xu was not surprised, he completed the transaction with Qu Siling without saying a word. Qu Siling went all the way from the apartment to the street. It is estimated that he encountered a lot of zombies in the community, but no matter how many there are, it will not exceed 20. Out of these 20 zombies alone, she took five crystal cores that Ye Xu needed. It was obvious that this girl was the real Emperor of Europe, not just by chance.

Ye Xu had already realized that his own temperament had been lowered, so the explosion rate did not meet his own psychological expectations. In this case, he can make a deal with this girl, so he can exchange the crystal core he doesn't need for what he wants.

However, whether it was the crystal nucleus that Ye Xu wanted or what Ye Xu didn't want, it was of no use to her for the time being. So on her side, she doesn't care whether she can exchange or not. As the one who asks for others, Ye Xu decided to provide some information as a reward, so that it can be considered an equivalent exchange.

Qu Siling did not expect that Ye Xu would be willing to tell her this. In fact, in her opinion, changing the crystal core is a simple task. She has nothing to lose anyway, and Ye Xu does not need to pay any more. However, Ye Xu insisted on paying, so she had to accept it.

"These crystal nuclei correspond to different elements." Ye Xu introduced them to her one by one. Apart from the fact that gold, wood, water, fire and soil correspond to yellow, green, blue, red and brown, which can be seen at a glance, light and dark thunder and ice wind are white, black, and purple. , Ice Blue and Transparent. There are three kinds of special crystal cores that Ye Xu has already told her, and there is one universal crystal core that is colored.

After carefully writing it down, Qu Siling said thanks: "I know how to use it, thank you!"

Ye Xu shook his head: "If you can, you can keep the crystal cores of ice and wind after you hit them, and wait until I come to you to exchange them. Of course, if you urgently need to exchange them for other things, it doesn't matter. If there are extra gold and silver crystal cores , I'll leave it to you too."

"By the way, there is one more thing, after you successfully awaken the spiritual power of the gray crystal core, there will be no problem in absorbing it. It is the same as the crystal core that ordinary power users usually absorb their own attributes, but carefully store it. Don't let others absorb it. Spiritual abilities are very slow to advance, and you can only rely on gray crystal cores and universal crystal cores, so you have to be mentally prepared."

Spiritual abilities are very powerful, they can even control zombies. Therefore, it is also very slow to upgrade, and the restriction level is extremely large.

In fact, if you decide to take this path, it is best to awaken it from the very beginning. Because it is easy to control zombies of the same level or weaker with psychic powers, it will be very difficult to control by leaps and bounds. When you wake up again in the late stage of the mode, you will find that even a zombie can't control his ability, and high-level zombies are running around everywhere in the world. If there is not a large number of crystal cores to help her upgrade in a short time, then this ability is useless.

"Thank you, I understand." Qu Siling pursed her lips, "I will think about it."

After the transaction is completed, the whole process is quite pleasant. Ye Xu left a system mark on her to make it easier to find her in the future.

This tagging function is one of the few functions of the copy system. It is useless at first glance, but it is actually very practical. It is too difficult to find a person in the last days, and it is much more convenient to have a mark. Now, if Ye Xu opened the minimap, he could directly see where Qu Siling was.

Ye Xu was in a good mood after sending the siblings away. He used to rely on ordinary crystal cores and rare universal crystal cores to upgrade, and the speed was really slow. But there is no way, who can prevent him from bursting out, the most mutant nuclei in his hands are from the Thunder Element.

Ye Xu felt that Qu Siling would not be able to come up with a lot of crystal cores in the short term. After all, after she returned home to meet her parents, they would not go out and kill zombies easily. Unless their parents are very enlightened and allow them to kill zombies downstairs to practice their skills, they will have a chance to obtain new crystal cores when they rush to the survivor base.

Of course, Qu Siling still has the crystal cores she collected when she was killing all the way home. But it's not very convenient for transactions, Ye Xu can't go to other people's houses to block the door.

He thought about it and decided to go as planned. Anyway, Qu Siling will go to the base sooner or later, and the crystal core will not be able to run there, and it is only a matter of time when they converge.

Ye Xu came out of the dumpling shop, looked at the direction, and continued to walk forward.

In order to clean up as many zombies as possible, Ye Xu didn't walk fast. He did not let go of the zombies that basically appeared in his field of vision, and collected many crystal nuclei along the way.

With these crystal cores and what Qu Siling exchanged for him, Ye Xu succeeded in breaking through level 2 in the early morning of the next day and became a level 3 ability user. He continued to find a place to sleep, and by the way, completely digested the energy of those crystal nuclei in his body.

The third-level ability user can comprehend the second skill. What Ye Xu realized is the ice pick and teleportation. With the help of the ice pick, Ye Xu gave up the ice shield directly.

He hasn't encountered danger yet, so he doesn't have to use the ice shield all the time. On the contrary, saving energy to use ice picks to improve the efficiency of monster spawning is the real business.

It's a pity that after reaching level 3, the ability upgrade is more than ten times slower than at the beginning, and still have to be busy to upgrade to level 4. Don't think about it in the short term, let alone think about the third skill that you can comprehend after level 5.

Ye Xu tried the power of the ice pick against a big tree and found that it could easily penetrate the thick tree. After the hole was pierced, the strength did not decrease much, and it directly pierced a truck in front of him. The metal walls on both sides of the truck were quite thick, and the tip of the ice pick was just barely protruding from the second wall on the other side, but the first wall had already been pierced.

This power startled him, but it was a level 3 skill. The ice pick is different from the wind blade. The wind blade cannot control the size, but the ice pick can. Ye Xu simply condensed a finger-long ice pick, which was small and exquisite, consumed little power, could produce a large amount of power, and could also be used as a hidden weapon to hurt people.

Ye Xu was very satisfied with this, even a small ice pick was enough to pierce the head of a level 2 zombie, and it would be a little harder to hit level 3. Therefore, at this stage, the little ice pick has no disadvantage, greatly improving the efficiency of Ye Xu's monster spawning.

Now is the evening of the third day of the zombie outbreak (the hour after waking up at 11:00 in the middle of the night is the first day). Today, it is obvious that there are many NPCs running out to buy food. Although the supermarket is still not open, ethical citizens still estimate the price and lose some banknotes on the cashier counter.

Of course, there are also those who take things for nothing without giving money. But it is always a minority, after all, the surveillance is still filming.

The speed of human fall is not as fast as written in the novel. When Ye Xu was passing by a supermarket, he saw several strong young men working together to smash the last zombie in the store. Then let other citizens come in to buy things quickly, go home quickly after buying, and don't linger on the street.

There are too many level 1 zombies. The speed of zombies at this stage is really slow, so be careful not to get hurt. A few young people looked very experienced at first glance. The whole process of killing the zombies was neat and tidy, and no one was injured.

"Be careful, close the door, let's go next door to help clean up these monsters, you wait here for a while. When we come back and clean up the zombies at the door, you can take the opportunity to go home." The leading man shouted loudly Said, "Remember to lock the door, don't let the monsters come in, they can't open the door. We'll be back in an hour, remember to buy something within an hour!"

Everyone was very obedient, and obediently locked the door. They know that they are weak, and it is best to stay calm and not hold back. In particular, most of the people present were teenagers and middle-aged people in their 40s and 50s, and it was not the period when the fighting power was the strongest.

As for the young people in the middle, some followed the group to help clean up the zombies, and some did not dare to go, so they hid in the supermarket to scan the goods.

However, this is still a minority. After all, they dare to go out to buy food. It is impossible that they have never faced zombies, so they have no courage at all. Although they can come safely all the way, they rely on avoiding the zombies and detouring outside the perception distance of the zombies.

Ye Xu thought about it and decided to go to the mall to have a look. When the virus broke out, it was the time when there were the most people in the shopping malls, and the number of zombies must have been very large. And because the density is too high, no one dares to clean it up, which is just right for Ye Xu to kill monsters.

He avoided the crowd and walked to the nearest mall.
