54 Chapter 54

The meeting was held for a while, and everyone discussed the development direction of the base in the future, and the old general suddenly felt as if something was missing, he glanced at the people around the desk, and then seemed to suddenly realize: "Do you think that our base is missing something, for example, the old base has a city lord, that Zhang Jian, how can our base be without, Chen Rui's matter has been known to them, in order to avoid Chen Rui being co-opted by Zhang Jian's means, we simply recommend Chen Rui as the city lord, You can get a vote in the meeting on the development of the base, and there are some privileges, plus the construction of a city lord's mansion. โ€

"General, what you said is good, Chen Rui has made a great contribution to our base, whether it is the restless neutralizer, or the corpse tide this time, and even the city wall of the base was built by Chen Rui, I support the general's decision." Zhang Chi was the first to respond.

Although Yu Meng was not very happy that Chen Rui secretly collected the two batches of fruits, with Chen Rui's expulsion of the corpse tide and the establishment of a tall wall, so that everyone in the base had a stable home, just by virtue of this Chen Rui, he was qualified to be the city lord.

"I also agree, the general should write Chen Rui's exploits on the stone tablet, bring back the mutant chickens that can be domesticated from outside the base, drive away the zombie tide, kill the zombie king, and build a wall...... As long as these are announced to the public, I believe that no one will oppose Chen Rui as the city lord, not to mention that even if we don't announce it now, everything that should be known will be checked. In that case, why not publish it, not only can our base be more cohesive, but even attract more people with abilities. Yu Meng said in a deep voice.

Zou Cheng nodded and agreed: "I agree with Yu Meng's words, openness is only good for the base, and there is no harm in it, and Chen Rui is strong, and his personality and character are not bad, so he can serve as the city lord." "After Zou Cheng took the ability restlessness neutralization potion, his strength has been greatly improved, he is a fire-based ability, his strength is very strong at the beginning, and he has a third-level strength in a few days in the last days, but because of the ability restlessness, he can't use the ability at all, let alone cultivate. After getting the news from Chen Rui, he was the first of those batch to try to mutate green jujube to calm down and appease the ability.

Now he is a fourth-level fire ability, and his combat effectiveness is quite strong, and he has also played a great role in defending the city this time, every time a certain section of the city wall is about to be unfortunate, it is Zou Cheng who helps to put out the fire, extinguish the mutant zombies that rush up, and burn a large number of zombies close to the wall, until Chen Rui appears and expelled the zombie tide in one fell swoop, so Zou Cheng is still quite grateful to Chen Rui.

What's more, Chen Rui has done a lot of things that are beneficial to the base recently, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Chen Rui is using his methods and abilities to defend the base. There is also Chen Rui's younger brother, this zombie tide is also very desperate, and even exhausted the ability, so that the ability collapsed, and it has not been able to recover until now, even if the old professor checked it, he did not find a solution.

After Zou Cheng's words fell, the other officers in the conference room also agreed. They all know more or less about Chen Rui, after all, even if they don't know everything about the neutralization potion, they still hear some rumors, especially now that the general has said it, it is even more certain. What's more, there is also the exorcism of zombies, the construction of the city wall moat, and they all already know about cultivating martial arts.

You must know that those ordinary soldiers who have no abilities are all their comrades-in-arms before the end of the world, and their relationship is very close, just because they have no abilities, they can only be left to stand guard at the base, how many grievances they have, these people know the most in their hearts. Now that the Adepts are becoming more and more important, bullets are becoming scarcer, and even though there is a bullet production line in the base, it is still in short supply. The general decided a few days ago that all the guns and bullets would be used to defend the base, and the mutant beasts and zombies were getting stronger and stronger, so now all the people who went out to clean and collect supplies were the supernaturals, and some strong comrades, in order to reduce the casualties of the soldiers, and the ordinary level of soldiers could only be left in the base to step up the construction of the machinery factory.

Now that there is an internal strength and mental method, and there are many warriors who have no special abilities, they have cultivated the sense of qi, and these manpower qi has obviously increased, the five senses have improved a lot, they are more flexible, and their physical fitness has also improved a lot. It can be said that Chen Rui gave them the courage and hope necessary to survive in the last days, as long as they continue to cultivate, maybe in a few months, even if those comrades-in-arms can't all become martial arts masters, but as long as they can kill mutant beasts and zombies, they can protect themselves and go out to the base to become stronger.

Moreover, a little warrior discovered that there was an energy that strengthened the internal force in the turbid corpse crystal, which was not found in the pure crystal nucleus, which was simply great news. Abilities can't use that kind of turbid corpse crystals at all, and there are a significant number of low-level crystal nuclei, at least half of them can't use the cloudy corpse crystals. Although the Technopark is already developing the function of impurity corpse crystals, which can be used to generate electricity, nothing is as important as improving its own strength. The old general's side has arranged for the old professor to observe the soldiers who practice martial arts, and if it is feasible, the old general is also ready to promote it to the survivors in the whole base, so that the survivors can have the ability to protect themselves.

On the weekend, he was sparring with a few warriors, Chen Rui sat in the mutated green jujube tree โ–กโ–ก comprehend the earth-based ability, since the ability was raised to level five, Chen Rui felt as if the zombie had a shackle, preventing him from continuing to level up quickly. Chen Rui also communicated with the stronger people in the army, and learned a lot, but it didn't work.

Moreover, Chen Rui found that the earth ability is as strong as him, and there is no one at present, for example, he can continuously absorb earth elements from the earth, as long as he steps on the earth unless his spirit is exhausted, there is no time when the ability is exhausted, which is something that other abilities can't do at all.

Chen Rui suddenly opened his eyes, just to see that the weekend was hit to the ground by the fighter again, and watched the young man stand up again without admitting defeat, Chen Rui felt distressed when he saw it, but he was ruthless and let the young man be hit again and again, standing up again and again. In the last days, he was confident that he could take care of the youth, but the youth always wanted to be strong, and Chen Rui didn't know how long he could live, not afraid of just in case, afraid of 10,000, so Chen Rui finally did not stop the young man from acting like self-harm.

However, after such a long battle, even if he didn't win much on the weekend, he did have a lot of actual combat experience, and he looked good when he fought, and he made a lot of progress in the end, and he didn't have the same hurry as he did in the first battle at that time, Chen Rui was finally a little relieved. It's just that I don't know when the young man's ability will be restored, Chen Rui tried almost all the methods he could think of, replenished the ability for the weekend, let the weekend absorb the elemental energy of the crystal nucleus, and let the weekend eat the mutated fruit, and the old professor also checked it, and couldn't find out what caused it at all.

Now Chen Rui only has one last way, but this kid on the weekend, after tossing like this for a few days, he said that he would not cooperate with anything.

Weekend actually understood in his heart that his dantian was like a bottomless pit, how many things were in and out, no matter how many crystal nuclei and corpse crystals he could absorb, even the earth-based abilities provided by the president, it was a massive absorption. No matter how much the president provides, his swarthy dantian can be swallowed up, but on the weekend, he can't mobilize the abilities in his body at all, and every time he sees the president's tired face, he refuses to try it again on the weekend.

It's just that every time he falls asleep on the weekend, Chen Rui will continue to do what he won't want to do during the day and weekend, and Chen Rui is eager to see how he will change after he fills the weekend's dantian with earth-based abilities. It's just that Chen Rui hasn't done it for the time being, and he has no choice, and other methods have been exhausted, so since the weekend dantian can absorb energy so much, then he will fill the weekend dantian with abilities, and maybe by that time, the weekend abilities can be restored.

Of course, Chen Rui also made a plan, even if the ability on the weekend can't be restored by then, and the dantian can't change, it won't be worse than the current situation, and it's a good thing if it can change a little. But Chen Rui was also worried that even if he fed the bottomless dantian of the weekend, it would not work, so Chen Rui would not tell the weekend until there was a turnaround. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, in order not to cause mood fluctuations over the weekend, Chen Rui did not disclose any signs.

Watching the weekend get up again, Chen Rui shouted to the weekend: "Come over on the weekend to rest, drink some water, you should cultivate your internal strength next." โ€

Not far away, the sweaty weekend heard the president's shout, turned around and saw the president holding a bottle of mineral water and shaking it towards him, and the weekend, who was already very thirsty and consumed a lot of water, swallowed his saliva and immediately ran to the president with a confession. Sitting next to the president, he unscrewed the cap of the bottle on the weekend and poured it down in a big gulp, but in the blink of an eye, there was no more than half a bottle.

Exhale, the weekend drenched the rest of the water off the head, the cool water made the weekend feel particularly refreshing, shook the head, the water droplets splashed and scattered, and wiped off the water droplets all over the face......

Chen Rui licked off the water droplets splashing on his lips, with a little salty taste of sweat with the taste of youth, Chen Rui squinted his eyes and smiled: "Are you hungry, do you want to eat something first." โ€

Weekend shook his head and threw the bottle back to Chen Rui and said: "Brother Chen, I'm not hungry yet, I'm continuing to practice after taking a break, although I haven't practiced my strength in the past few days, but I always feel that my body is much stronger, and my reaction is faster than before." I believe that as long as I keep trying, I will be able to fight the zombie mutants even without the ability. โ€

Listening to the young man's confident words, Chen Rui didn't hit the young man, just as the two were talking, Zhang Chi, who had a broken arm, ran towards the two of them, shouting Chen Rui's name from a distance.

Looking at Zhang Chi who came in a hurry, he smiled on the weekend: "Zhang Chi, you are reincarnated, you are in such a hurry." โ€

"Urgent, of course anxious, this is much more urgent than my reincarnation, Chen Rui come with me, by the way, you can follow on the weekend, this is a great thing, a great thing, a great thing that you will never think of," Zhang Chi shouted happily, dragging the weekend towards the conference room.

Seeing that the young man was dragged away, Chen Rui naturally followed, Zhang Chi had already seen that something was wrong with the two, and Chen Rui was spoiling the strength of the weekend, he knew that as long as he got the weekend, he would not be far from getting Chen Rui.

He was taken aback by the battle when he was pulled to the conference room over the weekend, and there was a group of officers sitting in the room, although he and the president were also honorary officers, but they didn't usually come to report, and they didn't know a few. This fierce officer with a murderous atmosphere, when he came in, they all brushed their eyes and saluted, and they really can't blame the weekend for not seeing the world, these little hearts of the weekend are a little scared, and they think there is something big going on.

patted his chest and looked at the old general and asked, "General, what do you have to do with our brother, we don't seem to have done anything recently, and we need you to find us specially," and he actually asked the two of them who had no military positions to come over on such a serious occasion.

"Don't be afraid, little brother, your name is the weekend, come and sit, sit next to me. You two brothers have done a lot of good things for the base, so I just thought that I couldn't let you do it in vain, and the base just lacks a hero now, your brother just meets this condition, I am going to let you Brother Chen be the honorary city lord of our base......" The old general explained after beckoning him over the weekend.

When I heard the old general's words on the weekend, I was really taken aback, this was completely frightened, and of course it was also a surprise, honorary city lord. No, wait...... Wait, doesn't the honorary city lord have any real power, and does he treat the president as the mascot of the base?

The weekend's face was shocked, at this time Chen Rui also stepped into the conference room, his face was extremely calm, he heard the words of the old general in the corridor, the honorary city lord, it sounds good, but it is not so comfortable to sit, maybe the recent firepower of the old base will be sprayed towards him, the honorary city lord, although Chen Rui is not busy, but he is not idle, he has been heartbroken about the affairs of the youth recently, and naturally he does not want to make an honorary city lord who has no real power.

"Old general, I think you misunderstood, I have no interest in the honorary city lord, my brother's ability has not yet recovered, I think in a few days, if it doesn't improve, I will go north to take him to the capital to see, maybe there is something to do over there." Chen Rui opened his mouth and said that he didn't mind helping the new base, but he was not interested in participating in the battle between the old and new bases, especially when he lost his ability on the weekend, he didn't want to become cannon fodder in the base struggle because of his negligence on the weekend.

The old general's face did not change when he heard Chen Rui's refusal, he smiled and said: "Don't worry, young man, you listen to me, I know what you are worried about, your brother will definitely not have an accident with us soldiers in our base." You also know how many dangers humanity has encountered after the end of the world, although there are many survivors in our base, but unfortunately human beings are really one in ten, and everyone is desperate. You are very capable and can protect the safety of one party, and you are also the unsung hero of the base, and if you can stand up, you can give many people the confidence to live. And the old base also knows about your situation, we originally concealed it from the public in order to protect your brothers, but now that the old base knows, there is no need to hide it......"

Chen Rui sat down next to him on the weekend, he thought about it for a long time, in fact, Chen Rui really had no interest in power, but the old base knew his situation, and as far as the gang of people in the old base behaved, they would definitely not let go of people like him easily, and it was certain that he would win him over, but if he didn't eat hard and soft, he would definitely find a way to deal with the people around him, such as the weekend, or simply find a way to get rid of him, after all, he had always wanted to get a new base, especially the new base he had built from scratch.

Although the power of the honorary city lord is not particularly great, there will be a city lord's mansion, and I always like to have a big house on weekends, since the new base is going to set up the city lord's mansion, the city lord's mansion can't be too shabby, I will definitely like it on the weekend, and it will be much more comfortable and spacious to live in. In addition, he can participate in the construction and decision-making of the base, Chen Rui feels that he has to match the old base no matter what, so it is nothing to become the city lord of the new base and become a spiritual pillar of the new base.

"Brother, you agreed, although you are an honorary city lord, you don't have to take care of things usually, it won't delay your cultivation ability, you can also participate in the decision-making of the base, and you can also have the city lord's mansion, which is very good." The weekend opened his mouth and said, the old general has already revealed to the weekend, the city lord's mansion is built on the edge of the mutated green jujube tree, and it is close to the military camp, there will be soldiers on duty, once there is anything the military can reflect in time, which is excellent for protecting the weekend that has no special abilities now.

Chen Rui glanced at the old general, then looked at the weekend where a pair of eyes lit up, and finally nodded and said: "The old general has no problem letting me be the honorary city lord, the city lord's mansion can not be too big, but it needs a yard that can be planted, my brother likes to plant some things." โ€

When the old general heard Chen Rui's words, he laughed and said: "There is no problem, there is absolutely no problem, isn't it just a yard, we will build you as big as you want." โ€

Just when he heard that there was a big yard on the weekend, the old general turned his words and complained: "Chen Rui, you also know that our base was originally built according to the satellite city of the old base, and the place is not very big. I just thought, on the left side of the base, there is a living quarter, you see if you can do a favor, isn't it just a blink of an eye for you...... Don't worry, you can plan the City Lord's Mansion as you want, we will definitely not interfere, according to the preferences of your two brothers, how about ......it?"

"You've said so, can I still refuse! Okay, this thing will be done tomorrow, you first draw the drawings, and then give me the drawings after planning, and I will build according to your requirements. Chen Rui said with a smile.

In fact, when Chen Rui was in the zombie tide, he thought that things might be like this, but he couldn't ignore the zombie tide because he was afraid of these troubles. After all, there are so many people, some of them are still bad people, but in the last days, human beings are already weak, and he has the ability to stand up, and the hope of mankind is there.

So Chen Rui still stood up, still dispersed the zombie tide, and still built a city, whether it was for himself or for the youth, Chen Rui wanted to create a stable and safe city. It's just that he didn't think about being an honorary city lord, and his ideal in his heart was still to take care of the youth, but Chen Rui, who lost his ability to fight, was caught off guard, and the things on the old base made Chen Rui have to step on the cusp of the storm.

However, with his ability, as long as he doesn't let the young man leave his side, he Chen Rui is still afraid that someone will be able to hurt the young man, whether it is before or after the end of the world, Chen Rui has always been quite confident.

"Since everything that should be said has been said, then the meeting will be dismissed, Zhang Chi, you are responsible for Chen Rui's construction of the City Lord's Mansion, and the places they need to move will be arranged by you. Zou Cheng City Lord Bronze is built by you by the metal powerhouse, and after it is built, it will be placed for me at the entrance of the main gate twenty meters, the statue of the city lord must be twenty meters high, how can it be higher than the city wall......" The old general arranged things slowly.

Chen Rui listened to the old general's words, and said helplessly: "The old general, I haven't died yet, what kind of bronze statue do you want." โ€

"What do you mean by not dying, how can you die, you are the symbol of our base, the protector of the survivors, the hope and hero in everyone's hearts, the bronze statue is a must. Alright, alright, now there is nothing to do with your honorary city lord, hurry up and build your city lord's mansion, don't be an eyesore here...... After glaring at Chen Rui, the old general continued to instruct his officers to do errands.

Seeing that Chen Rui was disgusted on the weekend, he immediately pulled the president and ran away, even if the city lord is an honorary city lord, it is also something that the weekend has never thought of in his life, the honorary city lord of a base, and all kinds of conveniences. At this moment, the weekend is really happy, his golden thighs are really not wrong, and the president is too handsome. Let that white lotus, Bai Yixuan regret it to death, now that the president is his brother, just hug him this golden thigh, think about the beautiful bubbling of the weekend, probably I will wake up with a smile in my dreams.

The two of them just walked out of the gate of the barracks, "Brother Chen Rui, Brother Chen Rui, I'm here, I'm here." A burst of excited shouts, accompanied by an excited face, appeared in front of Zhou Zhou and Chen Rui's eyes.

Chen Rui frowned and looked at the person in front of him with a complicated look, how could Bai Yixuan find him, how did he know that he was here.

"What are you doing here, is Brother Chen's name you? As early as you left the president in the zombie group, the president has nothing to do with you, hurry up, get out, the president has nothing to do with you. The moment I saw Bai Yixuan on the weekend, I exploded almost immediately, how could this person still have a face, how could he dare to appear in front of the president.

Bai Yixuan only saw that there was someone beside Chen Rui at this time, and then immediately recognized this person as a little help in Chen Rui's company, and immediately opened his mouth and shouted: "What are you, there is a place for you to speak, how can Brother Chen Rui take a fancy to something like you." Don't pester my brother Chen Rui, he loves me the most, and it hurts me the most, Brother Chen Rui, you drive him away, don't let him get in my way here......" 166 Reading Network
