Chapter 98

Although still somewhat hesitant, Lin Qianhuan ultimately made up her mind.

Not for any other reason, but because the Lucky Wheel was a win-win situation for her.

The worst reward would only be 200 first-level crystal cores.

But the other pills or spells were priced far beyond 200 first-level crystal cores in the system store.

At worst, it would only be a break-even situation, so why not take a gamble?

Lin Qianhuan’s heart stirred slightly. After hesitating for a moment, she took out two sets of medical protective suits from her space.

She carefully put on both sets of protective suits, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

Walking towards the monitoring room, Lin Qianhuan waved to the drowsy Lin Wansheng.

“Second Brother, I’m going to have a chat with Lu Shouzhen.”

“Weren’t you not planning to help them? Why do you want to see him again?

It’s unknown whether this guy is carrying the virus. Even if you’re wearing a protective suit, I’m still not at ease.”

Lin Qianhuan smiled, her eyes curving: “I want to exchange some crystal cores with them.”

“Aren’t the crystal cores we usually find outside enough?”

Lin Qianhuan shook her head: “Not enough, and hunting zombies now won’t meet my current demand for the number of crystal cores.

Trading with them is the fastest way for me to earn crystal cores.”

Hearing her say this, Lin Wansheng hesitated for a moment, but didn’t continue to ask.

He stood up and walked to her side.

“Give me a protective suit too. I’m still not at ease if you go alone.”

Lin Qianhuan didn’t refuse, helped Lin Wansheng get dressed, and the two walked out of the anti-theft door of Villa 36 together.

The heavy rain fell on the ground, and the garden seemed a bit muddy.

Opening the metal gate, Lin Qianhuan and Lin Wansheng, wearing protective suits, took a step back, keeping a safe distance of one meter from the two people waiting anxiously outside.

Lu Shouzhen looked up at them in surprise. Fortunately, using the last drone was useful.

Although the drone was scrapped because it had been flooded, he had secured a chance to trade.

Lin Qianhuan got straight to the point: “How many crystal cores do you have?”

Lu Shouzhen was stunned and turned to look at Lu Ying.

“Um, the base has a reserve of more than a thousand crystal cores. Are you planning to exchange crystal cores for supplies?”

Now it was the 51st day of the apocalypse, and both the survivors and the authorities had discovered the existence of crystal cores.

Surprisingly, the crystal cores in the brains of zombies actually had an irreplaceable effect on those with supernatural abilities.

In the process of fighting zombies, the supernatural abilities in the bodies of those with abilities would be gradually consumed.

And the energy in the crystal cores could just help them recover their abilities.

Not only that, but the official base was also stepping up research in the laboratory. The energy in the crystal cores had become a new energy source under development.

The value of crystal cores was revealed at this moment, and it also became the only trading currency other than supplies.

Lin Qianhuan was wearing a protective mask, and Lu Shouzhen couldn’t see her expression.

He only saw her slightly shaking her head: “The supplies in my hands are also running out, and I just happen to be going out to search for supplies.

I can take the survivors in the safe zone with me to find them. The round-trip fee, I’ll ask you for a thousand crystal cores, is that too much?”

The corners of Lu Shouzhen’s mouth twitched slightly.

A thousand crystal cores, do you think that’s too much?

“Cough, the price can’t be said like that, right?

If you only take them to a pharmacy, the amount would be too small, wouldn’t it?

There are many survivors in Silver Bay Gardens, and the number of infected people is also constantly increasing.

A lot of anti-inflammatory and antipyretic drugs are needed, which can’t be satisfied by just one pharmacy.”

Lin Qianhuan sneered when she heard this: “Do you know how precious medicines are in the apocalypse?

Try to buy all the medicines in an entire pharmacy with a thousand crystal cores?

Now that it’s raining heavily, it’s impossible for you to send people out to search for supplies with your strength, right?

But I can do it, and I can also guarantee that I’ll bring them back safely. Isn’t this a once-in-a-lifetime good deal?”

She looked at her fingertips wrapped in protective clothing: “You only make a profit and don’t lose.

Of course, I won’t force it if you don’t want to. It’s not difficult for me to go by myself.

Anyway, it’s not our Villa 36 that lacks medicine and supplies, is it, Base Leader?”

Lin Qianhuan’s words were tantamount to grabbing Lu Shouzhen’s weakness.

Now that the rain was pouring down, the virus was spreading rapidly in Silver Bay Gardens, and they couldn’t bargain at all.

He nodded heavily: “I agree, but the crystal cores must be delivered in two batches.

I’ll send someone to give you 500 crystal cores later. For the remaining 500, I have to see the medicine and the people come back safely before I can give them to you.”

Lin Qianhuan didn’t care and nodded in agreement.

“Okay, how many people can you send with me?

It’s best to pick a few space-type ability users. I’ll charge extra if you want me to deliver them.”

Lu Shouzhen almost choked.

You profiteer!

But how could he dare say these words to Lin Qianhuan? He could only grit his teeth and swallow them back.

“I’ll go back and organize the team, but we need people to guard the safe zone and control the infected, so the maximum number of people who can be sent out to search for supplies is only about 10.”

Lin Qianhuan didn’t mind the number of people: “Okay, I’ll provide the transportation. Just have these people gather in front of Villa 36 later.”

Lu Shouzhen was a little surprised: “You have a car? Why haven’t we seen you drive it before?”

“We have a car, but there’s only a little oil left. How can we not save it?”

Lin Qianhuan didn’t want to say any more to him: “I’ll only give you half an hour. Go find someone quickly.”

Lu Shouzhen and Lu Ying ran back to Villa 1 in raincoats, taking big steps and splashing a lot of water on the ground.

Lin Qianhuan didn’t go back to the villa either. She just took out a box-type truck from the space and drove it out along the open metal gate.

This kind of car has a high chassis and the rear compartment can carry people and cargo, so it’s naturally the best choice for traveling in rainy weather.

Lin Yixuan ran out with an umbrella when he saw this and stood outside the car to communicate with the two.

“What are you two going to do?”

Lin Qianhuan briefly outlined the task and urged him to go home.

“Big Brother, close the door and go home quickly, and don’t forget to disinfect yourself!

Second Brother and I will definitely be back before dark. Don’t worry.”

How could Lin Yixuan not worry, but he had to go back to Villa 36 to watch over those three weirdos who didn’t let people worry.

The metal gate slowly closed, and half an hour passed quickly. From a distance, they saw a group of people approaching the box truck.

Lin Qianhuan rolled down the car window and waved to them, signaling them to sit in the carriage.

Perhaps Lu Shouzhen had told them in advance, they didn’t say much, just silently climbed into the back carriage.

With everyone present, Lin Qianhuan started the car and drove out of Silver Bay Gardens all the way, speeding north.

Lin Wansheng, sitting in the passenger seat, was a little puzzled: “Where are you going?”

The other party stepped on the accelerator, looked ahead, and the wipers were shaking rapidly.

“Go to Wei City. It’s close to Yuncheng and the terrain is high, so it definitely won’t be flooded even if it rains.”
