[According to the known crystal colors, there are a total of six: white, black, light gold, gold, red, and multicolored, possibly indicating that abilities can be enhanced up to six levels.]
[Previous information provided on the role of crystals, especially when they are used to fortify weapons, is that twenty crystals is a threshold. All the required crystals are white, and when the threshold of twenty is breached, one cannot pick up the weapon anymore. The reason could be similar to the stages of an Awakener: if one’s own awakening ability does not meet the standard, they cannot pick it up.]
[The above statements were conclusions drawn by Lin Fan, a citizen of He City, based on some data. How accurate the actual situation is, still needs to be discovered collectively. If there are any mistakes, please forgive me.]
Lin Fan looked at the content he had written and nodded in satisfaction.
He had discussed it with Lei Team during the day, and Lei Team had praised his "Zombie Album" highly, making Lin Fan somewhat embarrassed. Lei Team had said that the "Zombie Album" was a post-apocalyptic treasure, and if other survivors could get their hands on it, it would be of great help to them, even changing many people’s fates.
Therefore, Lei Team’s suggestion was to make a large number of copies of the "Zombie Album" and spread them with the help of transport aircraft, even without a specific target—just scattering them about. If even one out of ten thousand copies was picked up by a living person, then the value of those ten thousand copies would be realized.
"I hope it can help you and at the same time carve out a path of blood to either He City or Fragrant Hill."
Lin Fan stood up and went to the balcony, looking at the brightly lit streets. He could see survivors sitting on the ground, chatting leisurely, with laughter occasionally reaching him.
There were also patrollers staying awake on the rooftops late into the night, always observing the situation outside.
Maybe there was no danger.
But everyone knew that this happiness was hard-earned and didn’t want any mishaps to occur.
His ears twitched slightly.
He heard voices coming from Gu Hang’s house; it sounded like Brother Hang was talking with Yang Hui.
It seemed they were saying... Hang, you know how I feel about you.
And Hang said... No, that’s a mistaken affection.
There was a lot of babbling.
Lin Fan didn’t intentionally listen; this was a private matter between Gu Hang and Yang Hui, and how it turned out was up to them. After all, in the current Sunshine Shelter, many men and women had paired up and started new families.
There were people who once had complete families, but the apocalypse had shattered everything. With time’s solace, they gradually returned to normal life and yearned for a family again.
Such situations were quite good.
Having a family is what fills the future with hope.
In the early morning.
Lin Fan, holding the Zombie Album he had finished working on last night, immediately asked Ah Hai and Wang Kai to find people to begin printing.
Print as much as they could.
Naturally, the more, the better.
Ah Hai and Wang Kai always took the tasks that Brother Lin assigned very seriously. Now the Sunshine Shelter was no longer the former Sunshine District, where everyone lived within a small area; it had expanded into something like a small society. Working diligently and quickly was essential to contribute to the shelter.
Old-timer Wang Kai, who had been at the shelter for a long time, always worked hard and never behaved arrogantly just because he was one of the early inhabitants. Instead, he was diligent and sincere, setting a good example for all the survivors.
Lei Team, arriving in a strange place, quickly became adept at his duties, holding a gun and starting patrols, especially when he saw Officer Huang in uniform he was a bit stunned.
He had heard from Lin Fan just yesterday that there were two zombies in the shelter, one was Dongdong and the other Officer Huang, who had always been maintaining the peace in He City.
When he heard this, he found it hard to believe.
He recalled a scene he had seen before, where a former comrade turned into a zombie fought tirelessly against other zombies, eventually being overwhelmed by the zombie horde.
Could it be...? With this thought, Lei Team let out a heavy sigh.
Perhaps that was conviction.
Even as a zombie, one still holds on to their beliefs, continuing the cause they once wanted to pursue.
In the extremely filthy streets, a domineering zombie stood there like a king, leisurely observing the situation before him.
A Tyrant swung its flesh cleavers relentlessly, slaughtering another Tyrant in front of it, while six Powerful Zombies pounded their fists onto the body of the besieged Tyrant.
The surrounded Tyrant was utterly confused by the situation, unable to comprehend why its own kind were attacking it.
And they were truly aiming to kill; there was no thought of sparing its life.
The Tyrant, controlled by Prince Wang Zixuan, with the help of the six Powerful Zombies, bisected its opponent at the waist with a single strike. With a thunderous crash, the Tyrant collapsed to the ground, emitting an angry roar at its counterpart.
With another squelch!
The controlled Tyrant smashed its kin’s head, extracting the Black Crystal and respectfully presenting it to Prince Wang Zixuan.
Crying out, Zombie Prince Wang Zixuan seemed very pleased with the situation, and then contentedly swallowed the crystal, feeling its energy. In an instant, its body shuddered, a surge of energy inducing evolution.
Zombie Prince Wang Zixuan let out excited shouts, as if he was inching ever closer to the path of becoming the Corpse King.
