Chapter 142
What did it matter to him whether the man bathed or not?!
The man roared inwardly.
But immediately after, the black mist grew thicker, completely enveloping him.
"Bang!"
The black mist imploded with the flesh, and everything returned to silence.
As Yun Xiaoxiao and her three companions were fighting those people, the girl with the chestnut-colored high ponytail quickly regained her senses.
She gently bumped her companion beside her, who immediately understood.
The four of them rushed towards the remaining people.
With their addition, the battle, whose outcome was already predetermined, ended even more quickly.
The girl walked up to Yun Xiaoxiao and her three companions.
"Hello, my name is Ci Wan. Thank you for your help."
"No need to thank us, we're born to help people," Yun Xiaoxiao said with a friendly smile, her eyes crinkling.
Ling Jing, Nie Yizhou, and Xiao Feng simultaneously gave her sidelong glances.
Doubt flashed in their eyes.
Are you really?
Yun Xiaoxiao ignored the three's gazes and smiled at Ci Wan.
"By the way, beautiful sister, you seem to know those people?"
Ci Wan found Yun Xiaoxiao very cute. She pursed her lips.
"That's right, we're from the same base."
"Xiangcheng Base?"
Ci Wan shook her head, "There are two large bases in Xiangcheng. One is the government-established Xiangcheng Base, and the other is the Thunder Base, formed spontaneously by people. We're from Thunder Base.
My father is the leader of Thunder Base, and this person is the younger brother of another influential figure in the base."
Ci Wan pointed at Chang Bing, "His older brother has always wanted to replace my father, but because my father is stronger than his brother, they haven't dared to openly cause trouble.
But as you just saw, although these people don't dare to openly make trouble, they do sneaky things behind the scenes.
This time, we went to a granary below Xiangcheng to transport food for the survivors in our base.
We didn't expect Chang Bing to ambush us here with his people.
Fortunately, you stepped in earlier, otherwise we might have lost our lives here today."
Yun Xiaoxiao understood.
So that's how it was.
She thought there was no information about Ci Wan and her group in her memories.
In her previous life, she and Lu Chen had stayed at Xiangcheng Base for a while.
She hadn't seen Ci Wan and her group, so they were from another base.
She blinked her big eyes and asked, "Beautiful sister, you all seem to be ability users too. How do you usually improve your abilities?"
She had noticed earlier that whether it was Chang Bing's group or Ci Wan's group, their ability levels were not the lowest.
That Chang Bing was at least at the middle stage of level two, and Ci Wan was probably at the initial stage of level two.
Unless they had consumed a large number of nuclei, they wouldn't have progressed so much.
In her previous life, although she was confused, she vaguely remembered that in the early stages of the apocalypse, people didn't know there were nuclei in zombies' heads, let alone understand that these nuclei could help ability users enhance their powers, so they couldn't have used them.
It seemed that it was about half a year after the apocalypse when the function of zombie nuclei began to spread among the various bases.
The strength of ability users then began to grow explosively.
Ability users became the core combat force.
This situation continued for a month or two, and then people gradually discovered something was wrong.
Those ability users who had consumed large amounts of zombie nuclei and became very powerful, all became extremely irritable.
Some even appeared to go crazy, biting people like zombies, or even dying from body explosions.
From that time on, those who valued their lives no longer dared to consume nuclei.
Of course, there were still some fearless people who continued to consume them.
But it wasn't long before they also experienced various terrifying conditions.
After that, everyone stayed away from the nuclei.
Until several months later, when a large base in the north developed the evolution serum.
Only then were zombie nuclei valued by people again.
Logically speaking, at this point in time, zombie nuclei shouldn't be widely used yet.
But the abilities of this group of people had improved so much, obviously they had used nuclei or something similar.
Previously at Rongsheng Base, that Uncle Long Ze's strength also seemed very strong, at the time she thought it was a coincidence.
But now looking at it, could it be that there were some things they didn't know about?
So that's why she asked this question.
The question was very straightforward, if the other party minded, they certainly wouldn't want to answer.
After all, this was like martial arts secrets in ancient times, knowing it could make one progress rapidly, who would tell a stranger for no reason?
Obviously, Ci Wan didn't mind telling Yun Xiaoxiao and the others.
Perhaps it was because Yun Xiaoxiao called her "beautiful sister" that put her in a good mood.
She said frankly, "Oh, this isn't really a big secret.
A while ago, Yangcheng Base contacted us, saying they had extracted an evolution serum from the nuclei in zombies' heads, which could help us enhance our abilities.
At first, we didn't believe it, asking how we could eat something from zombies' heads?
After all, even touching zombie blood could be fatal.
They sent three vials over.
They even gave one vial to my father for free to try.
My father was bold, and thinking that their people were in our hands, he drank that vial.
Unexpectedly, it really had an effect!
After that, we started buying that evolution serum from them."
Hearing this, Yun Xiaoxiao's little brows furrowed tightly.
Evolution serum?
It appeared so early?
In her previous life, it didn't appear until almost a year later, and initially it was developed by a large base in the north.
But now it not only appeared early, but it appeared in Yangcheng, a small city in the southwest.
Also, Ci Wan just directly mentioned zombie nuclei, evolution serum...
These terms only gradually spread at least half a year after the apocalypse in her previous life.
"So when you buy this evolution serum, do you use zombie nuclei or something else?" Yun Xiaoxiao asked again.
Ci Wan didn't conceal anything and said directly, "You can use zombie nuclei, one hundred for one vial, it seems the nuclei are also divided into ten levels, with different requirements for different levels.
Of course, you can also exchange with supplies."
The more she heard, the more astonished Yun Xiaoxiao became.
They even knew about nucleus levels!
This Yangcheng Base must not be simple.
She couldn't help but think of an unlikely possibility.
"Beautiful sister, do you still have any of that evolution serum here? I'm a bit curious, could you sell me a vial?"
"You don't have it?" Ci Wan was very surprised.
"But your strength is clearly..."
She had thought Yun Xiaoxiao and her group were so powerful because they also used Yangcheng's evolution serum.
She thought Yun Xiaoxiao asked her because she didn't know they also used Yangcheng's evolution serum.
But now it seemed the real situation wasn't what she thought.
