Volume 5: The Destruction of the Gods Chapter 57 Reliving the Old Days with Liu Yao
Shen Jin took a general look at what happened in the nearby T City in Home No. 1 and learned that the 500,000 zombies were controlled by intelligent zombies. The subsequent development did not disappoint him. He directly defeated the 200,000 zombie tide. By conquering and eliminating them, he directly helped T City solve the problem of 700,000 zombies and relieved their pressure. You know, the area of T City is much larger than that of Q City, and it has a larger population. There were 7 million zombies before the end of the world!
Therefore, their task of clearing the zombies is very arduous. Before this, they have experienced many attacks of zombie tides and large-scale battles frequently. It is also a city that is given key support by the Tianluodiwang. Fortunately, No. 1 Home, as their neighbor, can always lend a hand. Previously, there was a wave of 600,000 zombie attacks. It was Shen Jin and his team who helped intercept them halfway and killed more than half of the zombies, allowing them to defend their home.
"It would be good if this intelligent zombie could walk around in T City. It could help them solve a lot of problems... They don't have to ask us to help them put out fires all the time. Oh, and call the Dragnet headquarters. We need to let them know about this zombie. Otherwise, if they mistake it for an enemy, it will be bad!"
Speaking of intelligent zombies, Shen Jin thought for a while before remembering its name. "It said its name is... Liu? What a strange name..."
Shen Jin's news attracted enough attention in Tianluodiwang. Yang Tianyao complained that he should be sent to Tianluodiwang headquarters, and he should be given a few days to play with...
Shen Jin was horrified: "Is this a scientist?"
Before Shen Jin hung up, Liu Jiannan grabbed the phone and said, "Brother Shen! I have a new device here. Are you interested in taking a look? I guarantee you have never seen this thing before. It is very practical. It can help you continuously restore energy during battle and also increase your training speed!"
"Oh? What is that?"
Shen Lai became interested. He didn't have this kind of energy replenishment device. In the past, he could use Senzu Beans to buff himself and increase the recovery speed of his body's superpowers. Especially when combined with crystal cores, he could instantly restore a large amount of superpowers. It was a super combination of combat supplies.
But... ever since Shen Jin had more and more troops under his command and he was promoted to the third level, the supernatural food became scarce because the amount used was simply too much!
Now he has more than 2,000 extraordinary people under his command, including 1,200 second-level extraordinary people, and 1,000 first-level peak extraordinary people. If each of them gets 1 combat food + 1 life-saving fairy bean, that would be 4,400 supernatural foods!
Shen Jin is still only at the beginner level of the third stage, making third-stage food that lasts 10 minutes, and can make a maximum of 80 pieces a day.
In other words, if Shen Jin wants to provide each of his subordinates with two emergency third-level supernatural foods, it will take a full 55 days to complete!
This only means that all the equipment is complete, and it does not include daily consumption. If you occasionally encounter a powerful second-level zombie, you cannot defeat it without eating supernatural food, and you will be chased to death. You must use it, and this consumes one. If you are accidentally attacked by a zombie and infected with the zombie virus, you must use a Senzu Bean, otherwise you will be poisoned to death, right?
This consumes another one. The Corpse Killing Team goes out to clean up zombies every day, and accidents happen frequently. All kinds of situations are uncontrollable. Shen Jin will not deliberately save the supernatural food and let his subordinates risk their lives. The supply must be given. Therefore, his current solution is... to make more third-level supernatural food with medicinal effects lasting for 5 minutes, 2 minutes, or even one minute, to ensure that everyone has at least two. Sometimes a one-minute pseudo-third-level is enough to complete a counterattack, or escape.
Anything is better than nothing!
But...who is Shen Jin?
Hoard the rat! Hoard the rat!
Could he allow himself to have no supernatural food in his warehouse? This was definitely unbearable!
Even in such a difficult situation, he would still save a few every day for himself to eat in case of emergency.
Therefore, now that supernatural food is so scarce, there is naturally no reason to use Senzu Beans to allow supernatural beings to quickly recover their supernatural powers. It is too extravagant!
Shen Jin himself was reluctant to use it!
If Tianluodiwang really has this kind of equipment that helps to recover super powers, the more the better. Apart from anything else, if Shen Jin can recover more super powers every day, he can make more super power food to supply his subordinates. What does he know about fighting?
He is just an ordinary auxiliary psychic who can tear apart a third-level extraordinary person with bare hands...
To be honest, when Shen Jin goes out to fight, he can use the quantum armor to do the job instead of using his own strength. Don't ask, the answer is that he saves it for food.
With his own strength, he supplied 2,200 extraordinary people to clear out the zombies and recover the country!
At this time, Liu Jiannan laughed like an old fox: "Hehehe~! This device is called - Energy Atomizer. It is the latest product of our Equipment Department. It is driven by zombie crystal cores. It can extract the energy factors in the crystal cores and make them into spray, forming a high-energy density space in an area. You don't have to meditate to absorb the crystal cores. You can just passively absorb it like a fool! The higher the level of the crystal core, the stronger the effect. Of course... you need to be able to keep up with the level , otherwise it will be a burden on the body if you can't absorb so much energy!"
"Okay! It sounds good. Turn on the [Transporter] and get some over here so I can try!"
Today's unexpected surprise.
Liu Jiannan smiled even more proudly: "Good brother, in the past month, almost all the crystal cores stored in the Tianluodiwang have gone into your pocket. We have been emptied out, and we are unable to exchange for equipment..."
Shen Jin interrupted, "Those crystal cores have been made into products, and they are worth the money. It seems that they have come to me, but in fact they have returned to your pockets in a different form. Don't you agree, Lao Liu? I am a patriot, and you must speak with your conscience!"
Shen Jin and Liu Jiannan are already very familiar with each other. When they have nothing to do, they will even chat together on the satellite communication equipment, complaining about the stingy Kong Long and the experiment maniac Yang Tianyao. At this time, as soon as Liu Jiannan opens his mouth, Shen Jin knows what kind of fart he is going to fart. If he seizes the opportunity, he will definitely open his mouth wide and lose a lot of equipment!
As a top hoarder, Shen Jin would never allow his expenses to exceed his income!
Liu Jiannan was slightly embarrassed by Shen Jin's retort, but for the sake of Tianluodiwang's interests, he still said, "Oh! Let's not talk about that. Anyway, we have been working together for such a long time, and you are basically aware of Tianluodiwang's financial situation. The number of crystal cores is indeed not much... Now that we have this equipment, we have an additional expense of crystal cores, so in the recent transactions, I plan to use this equipment to exchange with you..."
Shen Jin thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Let me have a look at some instruments first. If the effect is good, I can consider it!"
"Alright! This effect is quite good, and those people in our combat department are already praising it! After using it, your ability recovery speed and training speed will be doubled. This device is said to allow you to practice with your eyes closed, it is definitely practical!"
"Okay, [Transporter] will wait for you then!"
Since it consumes a lot of electricity to open it once, both parties prepared the materials to be exchanged this time, and took advantage of this time to open the [teleporter] to trade them all together. The main purpose was to buy Shen Jin's potions, armor, and weapons.
The Artisan Soul equipment, which requires few consumables and is easy to use, plays an irreplaceable role in the country's fight against zombies.
The high-end Artisan Soul Armor, after being strengthened several times, has a defense comparable to that of nano armor!
And the various magical properties among them are even more powerful. For example... the [End] property provided by [Knight Slime Alloy] can mobilize the power of space at a critical moment to help you avoid a fatal injury, and then the armor explodes, which is equivalent to an extra life!
The casualty rate of Shen Jin's men was extremely low, and it was because of this attribute that he saved his men many times.
Of course, the most profitable thing was saving Sun Can, which directly gave him a [World Line]. "If I can find someone who chooses the 'Sword System', it would be great. If I can save him again, I can get another [World Line]. I only need one more! I only need one more to open the [Crystal Core Shop] on the next page."
Shen Jin is now stuck at the initial stage of the third level and is making slow progress. If he relies on the accumulation of time, he is afraid that he may not be able to reach the advanced stage of the third level in a year. By then, who knows what the zombies will have evolved into. He is not a genius like Hu Shou who can reach a very high level on his own. Shen Jin recently heard from Liu Jiannan that Hu Shou is already looking for a way to be promoted to the fourth level, and he will not return to the Tianluodiwang headquarters until he finds it.
Shen Jin was really envious, because it meant that Hu Shou had already reached the third level of great perfection. He went to look for an opportunity and a way to be promoted.
Shen Jin can only hope that the store can give him some good things to help him improve his strength~!
There is no shame in taking drugs!
Unfortunately, Shen Jin has not yet found a way to obtain the [World Line]. He can only keep doing good things and wait for the day when it will sprout.
While Shen Jin was thinking about the future, the supplies on both sides had been traded. In addition to several boxes of crystal cores, Shen Jin also got 10 more headband-like devices with four round protrusions similar to microphone heads on them, which could hold the crystal cores. No other energy was needed to activate this thing. After putting in the crystal core, just push the button to start it. The design was very simple. After Shen Jin put it on, it could be adjusted according to the size of his head. There was a small leather strap to hook the chin, like the design of a safety helmet, which was firm and not easy to fall off.
Shen Jin took out four ordinary crystal cores from the box and stuffed them in. He turned it on, and "Puff, puff, puff--"
It was as if there was a bubble machine installed on Shen Jin's head. After a slight vibration, mist-like white energy factors began to spray out from the four protruding parts. The mist fell down from his head and filled the area around his body. Shen Jin's skin was scratched by the delicate energy mist and automatically began to absorb the energy contained in it. Shen Jin felt that his body's supernatural powers were slowly recovering, and the energy consumed in making supernatural food was constantly replenishing. "It really works!"
Shen Jin closed his eyes and felt the energy factors around him, and felt a pure energy spreading around his body. The "energy atomizer" not only sprayed energy factors downwards, but also constructed a movable electrostatic force field around him, so that the energy factors would not escape, but would be fixed around his body. Since the energy factors are less dense than the air, they will not fall to the ground after being blown down. When the momentum is used up, they will rise from the soles of Shen Jin's feet and float to the top again, but will be pressed down by more energy factors, and so on. Therefore, these dense energies will continue to move up and down around Shen Jin's body until they are absorbed or the energy is exhausted.
"What a clever design! The energy utilization rate is very high!"
After Shen Jin experimented with it, he found that the technology content inside this little thing was very high and it was very practical. Ordinary crystal cores could provide him with energy recovery visible to the naked eye. Shen Jin replaced it with 4 first-order crystal cores and instantly felt the energy density increase again. The energy consumed in his body began to increase slowly, and it had caught up with his natural recovery speed!
"nice one!"
Shen Jin can also use the second-level crystal core to drive, but... he doesn't need it, because there are not many second-level crystal cores, and they need to be kept in the [Crystal Core Store] to exchange for better potions. The first-level ones are enough!
"That's great. Now I can make 160 supernatural foods that last for 10 minutes a day. That's great!"
Shen Jin only needs to carry this thing with him every day and replace the first-level crystal core regularly to double his output of supernatural food and make a huge profit!
Shen Jin kept a few for himself and distributed the rest to Li Moxiao, Shang Qian and Yang Ao, asking them to stay in this state at all times. Their bodies would automatically absorb energy for cultivation, and over time, their promotion speed would be much faster than that of ordinary transcendents!
At this moment, Shen Jin suddenly thought of someone in his mind, "Her ability...maybe it will be more effective?"
Nothing can make better use of this device than the "conversion" power, Liu Yao!
Called a mobile turret by Shen Jin, it can absorb large amounts of energy to launch a range attack far beyond the current level. Her transformation ability can absorb electricity, heat, nuclear energy, etc. Isn't this pure crystal core energy even better?
The shortcomings of Liu Yao's supernatural power are obvious. If she wants to launch a super powerful attack, she needs to accumulate energy for a long time and must prepare in advance. But if she has an "energy atomizer", her body will always absorb energy and automatically accumulate energy, so she can launch a super powerful attack every once in a while.
Transform active absorption into passive absorption.
Shen Jin found Liu Yao wearing a mask on the rooftop where he placed a whole set of equipment for the [Copier]. She was staring blankly at the ground below. When she heard Shen Jin coming, she shrugged her shoulders helplessly, "Shen Jin, let's just pretend we don't know each other, okay? I promise not to bother you anymore, just pretend to be a nobody!"
Shen Jin directly threw an "energy atomizer " over and said, "This thing is quite suitable for you, open it and take a look!"
Liu Yao caught it with a puzzled look in his eyes: "Isn't this a perverted device that can control others and turn them into sex slaves? If soft methods don't work, then use hard methods?"
“…”
Shen Jin frowned: "What are you thinking! This is the latest device invented by Tianluodiwang. It can emit energy around you at all times. It matches your superpowers very well!"
After hearing this, Liu Yao turned on the button, and a stream of pure energy gushed out. "Huh? It really is!"
Liu Yao is sensitive to energy, and a symbolic energy ball has begun to appear above her head, indicating that she can launch energy attacks.
After trying it for a while, Liu Yao was very satisfied. "I'll take it. If everything is ok, I'll leave!"
She turned her head and tried to slip away, but Shen Jin grabbed her arm and pushed her against the wall. Liu Yao leaned back with her upper body hanging in the air. Shen Jin's face moved closer to hers with a smile on his face. The distance between them was getting closer and closer. Shen Jin could see her beautiful big, kazilan eyes and her long eyelashes. The skin on her face was as white as milk, and the familiar oval face could be seen through the gap in the mask.
Liu Yao said in a trembling voice: "Shen Jin, what are you going to do?"
