Chapter 175
While Chen Luo was busy slashing through zombies, Jiang Chen and the other three hid upstairs, boredly counting crystals.
They didnt dare to go downstairs. Dealing with one or two zombies was manageable, but facing a few hundred? That would be suicidal.
Jiang Chen didnt want to count, but with the other three doing it, not counting would seem strange.
Jiang Chen consoled himself, thinking that even if he counted, the leader wouldnt have a clear idea of how many crystals there were.
The 2222nd strike.
The 3333rd strike.
After counting up to the 3568th strike, finally, the fourth batch of zombies was eliminated.
Chen Luo was panting heavily. Killing zombies was exhausting.
Even if Chen Luo had to exert a bit more effort to kill fourth-level zombies, swinging his sword over three thousand times in a row was still tiring.
Chen Luo muttered, If there were over ten thousand zombies, I might really die from exhaustion.
Da Zhuang felt a numbness in his scalp. This was the fourth batch of zombies he had brought, all of them slaughtered by the executioner.
Fortunately, there were no survivors left behind. Otherwise, where would Da Zhuang find a place in the zombie world?
Da Zhuang had accepted the name Chen Luo gave him Da Zhuang.
Chen Luo said, Alright, Da Zhuang, you can go now. Well contact each other every seven days, and well meet here in seven days.
One thing troubled Chen Luo. He couldnt actively reach out to Da Zhuang. Bringing him to the base for care would be a waste.
Da Zhuang was an infiltrator in the zombie world. If brought to the base, he might become a traitor among the zombies.
Da Zhuang was smart, but there was a chance he might be killed by survivors.
Chen Luo could only hope Da Zhuang would live longer.
Chen Luo then menacingly added, Youve been poisoned by me. You must take the antidote once a month, or else hehehe.
Da Zhuang, in fear, said, I understand, Big Brother.
Da Zhuang left again, but this time, it was different.
Previously, when leaving Chen Luo, Da Zhuang always felt a sense of relief. Now, he felt poisoned.
Da Zhuang couldnt help but feel sorrowful. As he walked away, tears flowed. He was no longer a free zombie.
Watching Da Zhuangs departing figure, Chen Luo smiled, waiting for Jiang Chen and the others to collect the crystals.
After collecting them, a girl happily volunteered information, Boss, I collected 923 crystals.
With a leader, the others also reported their counts.
Chen Luo chuckled, Good job, everyone. Following me on a mission must come with benefits. So, each person gets ten level-four crystals.
The crowd cheered, and Jiang Chen forced a smile.
While the base had a good supply of crystals, they were mostly level-three crystals. Everyone knew the significant difference in effects between level-three and level-four crystals.
Chen Luo didnt mind. Forty level-four crystals were just a little extra activity. In the future, everyone would be eager to accompany him on missions.
Each person handed a large sack to Chen Luo. The sacks were stained red with zombie blood, containing a large number of crystals.
Originally, Chen Luo had prepared only a plastic bag for each person. However, with Da Zhuangs help, the harvest was abundant, and plastic bags werent sufficient.
In front of everyone, Chen Luo directly placed the sacks into the dimensional space, leaving the others gaping.
In the early days of the apocalypse, Chen Luo knew that, despite his rebirth, revealing the existence of his dimensional space would be troublesome if anyone found out.
However, now the development of power surpassed Chen Luos imagination. At level seven, possessing dual abilities, even a level-nine powerhouse could be challenged.
At this stage, level five was considered a top-tier powerhouse.
However, when comparing level five to level nine, it was a different story.
Level six and level seven mutated zombies were just playthings that could be easily dealt with.
Now that Im invincible, why be so cautious?
No need to hide anymore. So what if you find out? What are you going to question me about?
Just a few lives.
Chen Luo nodded, Alright, lets go back.
Jiang Chen felt a surge of joy. Indeed, Chen Luo didnt know the exact number of crystals they had. Who would bother counting how many crystals they obtained, especially when dealing with a super awesome big brother like Chen Luo?
As they were about to get on the car, Chen Luo suddenly felt puzzled. Something wasnt right; the total count of the four individuals didnt match the number he counted.
Did I make a mistake?
With his compulsive tendencies, Chen Luo immediately started to carefully recount. There was a discrepancy of 52.
Did I make a mistake, or did someone take more?
Chen Luo looked at the four individuals, and under his gaze, a girl sent him a sultry look. The two were a bit reserved, Jiang Chen was somewhat embarrassed.
Chen Luo glanced at his pants pocket, which seemed a bit bulging.
Without saying anything, Chen Luo got on the car and returned to the base.
In the base, there were enough crystals for everyone. Some people could absorb five in three days, but they reported absorbing six, storing the extra one.
There were many such small incidents.
As long as you didnt go too far, Chen Luo would turn a blind eye.
But seriously, are you blind or brain-dead to pull off such tricks in front of the big brother?
Thats too audacious.
As they were about to return to the base, Chen Luo asked, Does anyone among you have anything to say to me?
If someone could admit it at this point, Chen Luo would only impose mild punishment.
The four looked at each other, feeling a bit strange.
Jiang Chens heart pounded violently. Could it be that the boss found out?
Thats impossible.
My talent isnt that great, and Im just a bit away from reaching level four. With these level-four crystals, my development speed will surely surpass others.
I refuse to be weak forever. Ill give it a try.
Worst case scenario, Ill find an opportunity to slip away. Maybe these level-four crystals can help me quickly reach level five.
Fortune favors the bold, and the timid die of hunger.
There might not be another chance like this in the future.
Jiang Chen looked at Chen Luo with confusion.
Chen Luo shook his head. Once inside the base, he reached for Jiang Chens pants pocket.
Jiang Chens face changed dramatically, evading, and forced a smile, Big brother, I dont have that habit.
Chen Luos face turned dark. He forcefully tore open Jiang Chens pants pocket, and a pile of level-four crystals spilled out.
The other pocket revealed the same.
Jiang Chen tried to dodge but couldnt escape.
Jiang Chens face turned pale, standing still in place.
Chen Luo snorted, Tie him up and take him to the training ground.
The base had a large open space specifically for members training.
Some members were still out, and after they returned, Jiang Chen would serve as a warning.
The members who stayed behind, upon seeing the crystals, roughly understood what had happened. Wow, you really dared to be greedy.
Jiang Chen was tied up by the eager members.
The other three who collected crystals looked at Jiang Chen with mixed expressions. Did the boss kill too few people, making you this audacious?
Jiang Chen pleaded loudly, Big brother, spare me this time. I wont dare again.
Chen Luo turned a deaf ear.
The Thunderbolt King had returned long ago, and the flowers that Chen Luo was waiting for had started to wither.
This time, the Elder Dog obtained two high-level crystals. He was eagerly awaiting Chen Luo to calculate how many points this Elder could get.
The Thunderbolt King placed the bag containing two high-level crystals in front of Chen Luo, eagerly awaiting his approval.
Chen Luo felt a bit dazed. How come the difference between humans and dogs is so significant?
