The busyness under the city wall is currently too busy for everyone to pay attention to, and even Luo Xun and Yan Fei have stopped their respective work and watched the three of them upgrade.

After a while, Sun Shaoyang first swept a layer of metallic luster from his body, and because of the cover of clothes, everyone only saw a layer of metallic luster flashing on his exposed arms and face, and then he opened his eyes and looked down at his hands a little blankly.

On the other side, Xiao Li and Shen Ping also flashed the same luster on their bodies almost front and back.

"Succeeded?!" Captain Guo's expression also became nervous, and he confirmed to the three of them.

"It seems to be ......"

"Captain, I feel as if my mental power has been replenished all of a sudden!"

"I feel so strong!"

Even Shen Ping, who was in the second team before and couldn't use more crystal nuclei every time, was successfully upgraded this time, which shows that it doesn't take too many first-level crystal nuclei to upgrade from the first level to the second level. Yan Feixin was a little regretful, he still didn't know the number of crystal nuclei needed for each level of upgrade, and he couldn't guess how many crystal nuclei he needed more than ordinary abilities.

Although his abilities are powerful, the amount of effort and the number of crystal nuclei he usually needs is much more than that of ordinary people. It seems that going out to the base at the end of each month to fight crystal nuclei needs to be more efficient - fortunately, now that a sand-based Xiao Ranran has joined the team, it can help everyone speed up efficiency, and of course they also have to find a way to protect that child and find a way to increase her ability level.

After being promoted to the second level, the three immediately joined the work, and sure enough! The work efficiency has been improved all of a sudden! However, what made Captain Guo feel a little bitter was that the speed at which they consumed crystal nuclei had also increased. Fortunately, this is not too important, the important thing is that the people brought out by his own hands are really productive and capable!

Captain Guo, who was thinking about going back at night to report and ask for benefits, hurriedly asked the other people who were watching the excitement to return to the edge of the city wall, and cooperated with the convoy below to fight the zombies - there was no movement for half a day, and the zombies below who were originally surrounding the city wall all rushed to the convoy at this time, and if they were not careful, they would probably not be able to go back to the base.

The weather is gradually warming up in March, and there may not be a clear feeling of the city where City A is located, but some people who used to live in some places in the south know that some of the early germinating plants have begun to gradually hang new greenery and some early spring flowers are also blooming one after another.

The daytime temperature at the base has risen due to the longer daylight, but it is still cold in the morning and evening. After these days of tireless propaganda and encouragement, some families have officially begun to try to grow some crops in their own homes, and some people have contracted some open space in various parts of the base, ready to grow all kinds of vegetables, and even upland rice and wheat. For example, in Luo Xun's community, some green spaces next to parking lots have been blocked with various things, and the ground inside has been loosened and sown with some seeds, which are taken care of in the morning and evening.

In order to plant a larger area for themselves, some people even forcibly moved some seemingly ownerless cars, dug up the floor tiles laid on the soft ground to reclaim the land.

In the past two days, because of these things, there have been seven or eight conflicts in the community, and even Luo Xun and the small container car that they have not driven for a long time have been secretly moved away (because Yan Fei completely sealed the car door with an ability), fortunately, the two usually have to pick up the car every day to drive, and several cars are very close, so they found it in time. Luo Xun and Yan Fei simply got their cars in front of the door of their building, and Yan Fei directly made a circle of metal fences and inserted them directly into the asphalt road, without his own operation, no one could move them lightly.

In the green space of the community, the low shrubs, ornamental flowers, and even some flower trees and decorative flowers that were originally planted have all been uprooted at this time, and these places, like the open space of the parking lot, are also surrounded by various strange material fences, and all kinds of seeds are sprinkled inside.

Some people who know a little about farming will raise seedlings at home first, but many more people will take the seeds and plant them directly in the ground. Although the base will also arrange a broadcast to teach planting knowledge in the daily radio program, most of the broadcast time is in the morning and afternoon when most of the people in the base go to work, and there are only a few people who can have a radio at home, and not many people will hear it. Therefore, although people in the base have heard about the mutated crops, they are not necessarily willing to throw away the seedlings that have been sent out with great difficulty, especially when the proportion of these mutated seedlings is large.

Besides, who can guarantee that mutant plants must not be eaten? What if it's no different from a normal plant except for its appearance?

Luo Xun and Yan Fei are still living a life no different from before, and even Li Tie and them are the same as before, busy working and going to work every day. No way, they are all professionals. It's a rarity in today's bases. Not to mention that they are not available now, even if they are free, they would rather grow vegetables in the extremely reliable room that Yan Fei helped build, who would go out of their way to cover the land?

Until the end of the month, the metal wall of the perimeter wall that Yan Fei's team was responsible for building had been completed by two-thirds of the way! The tall, mighty, black wall was built by the four of them in less than a month!

Thankfully, their captain is a very good and considerate captain who is willing to fight for better welfare for the players. And their direct commander is also not a person who disagrees with people and does not know how to be flexible. After hearing that the metal-based abilities were collectively upgraded and needed higher-level crystal nuclei to replenish their abilities, the superiors waved their hands and asked the people in the logistics department to pay special attention to the metal-based second-level crystal nuclei, to supply Luo Xun and their team, and allocate an additional first-level crystal nucleus to their team every day, so that they could speed up and quickly finish the outer wall - the wall of the military camp was still waiting for them!

"That's the end of today's work." Captain Guo stood in front of everyone, and behind him was the big truck that everyone had just ridden, "Tomorrow is a four-day holiday in a row, everyone go back to rest, and wait for me to come back to work on the first day of next month, no one is allowed to be late!" ”

"Yes!!" Everyone was excited, and their eyes were full of excitement. It's been a busy month, isn't it just for these few days off?

Captain Guo waved his hand, and the team disbanded on the spot.

Luo Xun took a deep breath and looked at Yan Fei with a smile: "I finally don't have to get up early tomorrow." ”

Yan Fei also laughed, but there seemed to be something meaningful in that smile: "Whatever time you get up tomorrow." ”

Luo Xun, who seemed to see his ill intentions, glared at him, turned around and walked in the direction of the gate: "Li Tie, they still have to have two days off for a holiday, right?" It's Zhang Su, it seems that he will put it for three days in a row? ”

"Well, he put it for three days, but he put it for the last two days of the month and the first of the next month." Yan Fei casually kicked into his pocket with one hand, and grabbed Luo Xun's hand in front with the other, Luo Xun had no choice but to stop and wait for him to walk forward side by side.

The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and the clothes on everyone's bodies are getting thinner and thinner, and once the two of them wear less and then hold hands, it looks a little conspicuous. But fortunately, because there are almost no people in the last days who will pay attention to the actions and behaviors of people who pass by, although some of them will notice, they will be like before the end of the world, but there are many fewer eyes that point and are curious.

However, Luo Xun was still a little uncomfortable, and kept his head down when he walked.

Yan Fei suddenly leaned into his ear and whispered, "Do you want to wear a mask when you go out in the future?" ”

glared at him angrily: "You think I'm you?" Are you still afraid of going out and being remembered? ”

Yan Fei smiled: "Let's go, let's go change the gasoline first." "They are going to go out to hunt zombies in two days, and now the amount of gasoline in the base is more and more limited, and public officials like them who work in the base can still have a way to get some, otherwise ordinary survivors can only buy a certain amount of gasoline each time, and they can only fill the designated vehicle after receiving the task.

Like Luo Xun and Yan Fei, the two of them can get some "oil tickets" through the relationship between Captain Guò Guo, and Li Tie can also get some, not to mention Zhang Su, who often receives gifts and has very good treatment and benefits.

Because Luo Xun and the others had a holiday in advance, and the two of them got off work early, Li Tie and the others gathered all the fuel tickets in their hands to them, and asked them to buy them in advance and take them out together - Xu Mei's fire ability plus gasoline is simply an invincible match!

The two of them drove the car to exchange for gasoline at the huàn window - in addition to the gas ticket, the exchange of gasoline also requires points, but fortunately they have saved a lot of this thing recently.

After lighting a fire, the gasoline that can definitely blow up more than two high-rise buildings was "sealed" in the car along with the car, and after Yan Fei returned to the sixteenth floor with two barrels of gasoline that may be used daily, the two of them were going to prepare for going out of the city to fight zombies in the future, and the first thing they needed to prepare was to rub ammunition.

Yan Fei got some metal scraps - he came back by the way of work, and the captain didn't care about him anyway. Luo Xun picked a lot of mushrooms and prepared to pound them out one after another in the past two days.

Because they were worried that the mushrooms would lose their corrosiveness when they were picked too early, the two decided to wait until the next two days to go out and slowly tinker with these things. Of course, they had tried to leave the mushroom juice for a few days before trying again, and the result was that once it had been more than a week, it had basically no effect, and there was no problem in terms of the effect after two or three days.

Several large mushroom trees in the nursery room have grown extremely vigorously because of the recent increase in the number of seedlings that the Luo family needs to plant and develop, and the red and bright mushrooms are in good spirits, straight and straight one by one, and they still exude a strange gray mist after they are put together, which is so scary to look at.

Luo Xun picked them one by one with a mask and rubber gloves and asked Yan Fei, who was sorting out the metal, "You say, after processing them, can they be stored longer if they are frozen in the refrigerator?" Will it contaminate other things? ”

Yan Fei's movements paused, and he frowned and looked at him: "I don't know if I can keep them for a while longer, but if you're going to freeze them in the freezer...... I'd better find a new freezer that we don't use at all. ”

"It's okay, it's better to find a smaller one to put these things when you go out this time, otherwise the mushroom production at home is getting bigger and bigger, and we can't go out often, and it would be a pity if they all burned." Of course, Luo Xun didn't have any psychological pressure to burn these mushrooms before he knew the usefulness of them, but after treating them as sharp weapons, special weapons, and special skills, he naturally couldn't waste them!

In particular, Luo Xun is also going to fill the bottom layer of the shelves planted in the next room with wood, and wait for them to grow out for later use, there is no way to store these things!

It didn't take long for the scoop made of glass to be smashed out by Luo Xun A bunch of bright red juice, although this thing is also red, but at a glance, you can know that it is absolutely impossible to be blood. After pouring the finished product into another vessel, Luo Xun continued the following work. Yan Fei took the metal volley and operated them to fly into the vessel to "hold" some liquid, and the whole reversal wrapped the liquid inside, and the metal directly changed to the size of a standard crossbow arrow, and the whole process was completely unexpectedly operated by his own hands! It's just too cheating!

The appearance of the two of them at this time is compared - Luo Xun is wearing a protective suit made of a raincoat, wearing protective rubber gloves on his hands, and a modified plastic shell helmet on his face, for fear that his body will be stained with a little weird juice, and even the rain boots on his feet are simply armed to the teeth. But Yan Fei leisurely leaned on the chair in his regular clothes, and he could do it with just a wave of his hand, which was really ...... People are more angry than people.

The two of them have been busy since the evening before the holiday, and after Li Tie and the others came back, they also visited Luo Xun and their 1603 together - there was no extra protective clothing, and they only had a set of ponchos, and they had to keep them to go out to fight, so they didn't participate. By noon the next day, the mushrooms had all been processed.

Although Luo Xun really wanted to take some mushroom juice and freeze it in the refrigerator, for the sake of future food, he decided to put this proposal aside and wait for this outing to come back.

made a bunch of special weapons, and the two prepared a lot of food that they needed to bring when they went out the day before they went out, and waited until the morning of the holiday gathering to meet in the corridor in large bags.

A month later, the otaku team reassembled, and all the heavy clothes were replaced by clothes that were relatively easy to move around - but still the same outfit. Li Tie and the others got a few sets of identical black sportswear out of nowhere, which seemed to be an imitation of a well-known sports brand before the end of the world, holding a unified iron rod in one hand, a crossbow of a unified system on the other, and a large backpack of uniform specifications on the back, with a raincoat and poncho in the bag.

Seeing Luo Xun and the others come out, several people hurriedly came over and helped carry the metal ammunition that Yan Fei had made before-these are all good things with strong lethality, and they must be careful not to bump into them! Although, in fact, even if they fall, this thing itself is not so fragile.

Handing over the food he had prepared to Wang Duo to carry, Luo Xun checked everyone's clothes and equipment again, and after confirming that everyone was fine, he raised his hand and put on his motorcycle helmet: "Ready to go!" ”

"Yes!"

Downstairs, the three ladies who heard the movement upstairs began to lock the large iron door of their house.

When Luo Xun and the others walked to the fifteenth floor, they saw two girls wearing sportswear + leather jackets + rain boots, each holding a motorcycle helmet in their arms and an iron rod stuck in their waists, waiting there. Seeing that they had come down, Yu Youran, who had been hiding behind the two ladies, also had a small head. Luo Xun and the others didn't see the expression of the leisurely little sister, because she also wore a children's motorcycle helmet on her head......

Suddenly feeling that his group of people would look terrible if they went out together, Luo Xun twitched inexplicably in his heart, and hurriedly waved away the scene that came out of his mind, and waved his hand to call the three girls downstairs together.

It seems that he doesn't usually feel it, but once it comes time to go out to fight zombies, Luo Xun will subconsciously become the leader of this weird team, and what's even weirder is that all of them, including Zhang Su, who is usually the most difficult to handle, and Yan Fei, who is the most powerful, have all acquiesced to this setting. And at the same time, Luo Xun himself didn't even notice it.

Yan Fei raised his hand to "open" the metal fences that blocked everyone's vehicles, and the people nearby all dodged away after seeing such a group of people in uniform and helmets coming out, and watched them drive their cars out of the community and in the direction of the gate. Why don't you seem to have seen it before?

The otaku squad took over the task of hitting 100 crystal nuclei again, and merged into the waiting convoy and drove into the patio. This time, in order to maximize their interests, Luo Xun and the others connected the two cars and drove them together. That is to say, Li Tie and his two cars, Xu Mei's three women and one car, plus Luo Xun's two cars connected together, a total of five cars are waiting in the patio.

The patio at the perimeter wall was much higher - now ten meters high. The cars stopped here and began to bang on the accelerator one after another, and as soon as the gate opened, the car in front of it rushed out, and the cars behind followed at full speed.

It seems that because they are already familiar with this mode of operation, there are no accidents when the cars that have recently left the base open the gate. Luo Xun and the others still drove out as unhurried as last time, and it didn't take long for them to hang on the tail of the convoy, and when the intersection appeared, they turned onto a road with fewer people.

Several roads out of the city were cleaned by the market, so this time I felt much easier to walk than last time, the road surface seemed to have been cleared, and the cars parked randomly on the road were all gone.

Smoothly drove all the way to the bank where everyone stayed as a base last time, and all the materials that could be collected near here had already been swept away by people who came and went, so no one deliberately stayed here, and people who entered the city hurriedly passed through here and drove deep into the city.

Now the mission types in the base have been adjusted a bit, in addition to the task of collecting crystal nuclei is still the same as before, the base has more and more specific requirements for the collection of materials. In other words, if you want to take the materials that are not in short supply in the base, it is actually for your own family to go out to fight crystal nuclei, and now it has been basically eliminated.

Today, the base is collecting all kinds of intact fabrics, toilet paper, seeds, metal products, treated wood panels, raw materials that can be used to make zuò flower pots, fertilizers, and so on.

This kind of task gives a detailed map, such as the specific location and quantity requirements for taking certain materials in a certain place next, and the team that takes this kind of task has a certain number of restrictions, if it is outdated and not taken, then this task will be released again with some points.

Luo Xun and the others have no interest in this kind of task, their interests are all in fighting zombies and digging crystal nuclei.

Quickly clearing the zombies near the bank again, he was relieved to see that the fortifications they used last time were still being brushed by everyone.

After checking the situation in the bank up and down, and after confirming that there was no accident, Luo Xun looked out the window and said, "Now Yan Fei and I are going to get some metal materials nearby, you can build the original fortifications, and the movements should be light and not make too much noise." ”

"Okay!"

"No problem, leave it to us!"

The number of zombies in the vicinity is not too much, and these zombies have not found everyone's trace, if even these zombies can't defend themselves, then they should hurry back to the base house.

Luo Xun brought a box of special ammunition and ordinary crossbow arrows, and crawled out of the back door of the bank lightly with Yan Fei. They had already gotten all the metal materials near the bank last time, and this time they needed to go to a nearby place to get some more, so that they could be used as fortifications and weapons, and second, ...... Take it home.

The two of them ran to a nearby shopping street, and they didn't need to enter at all, so Yan Fei could collect metal for him to use while walking.

Metals of various shapes and apparently dismantled from various places flew out from the storefronts and shops everywhere, and Luo Xun couldn't help but shake his head and sigh as he watched the piles of metal that gathered more and more around the two of them gradually merge together to form a huge "shield": "This can be used as a mobile fortress." ”

Yan Fei's hand was in one of his pockets—there were some crystal nuclei in this pocket. The other hand kept mobilizing the large pieces of metal that could be felt nearby and flew into his command metal "team". The number of zombies on this street is not too small, and after feeling that a living person appeared, he waved his arms and ran over, and in other directions, Luo Xun only needed to hold a crossbow and a crossbow to properly kill these zombies who had not had time to gather together, but the zombies who gathered from the metal shield under the command of Yan Fei ...... Because of the barrier of such a shield, they can only be temporarily blocked on the other side of the shield and scratch the wall......

After Luo Xun eliminated the zombies gathered from other directions, he pointed to the group of zombies who were blocked behind the "shield": "What to do with those?" ”

Yan Fei thought for a moment, and suddenly raised his hand, and the big lump of metal suddenly rose into the air, and the zombies who were blocked on the other side before rushed forward with a roar, and then his hand waved again, "help", and the big iron stone instantly smashed a large group of ......
