Chen Wenjing's teeth chattered with a grinding sound.
An Nuan looked at his new look and her eyes lit up. She excitedly cupped his head, examining it from left to right.
"This haircut is great! The style really suits you!"
"This color is also nice. Wenjing, you can go for the cute deer look now!"
Chen Wenjing's face flushed pink from their praise. He lightly bit his lower lip, looking just like a shy young girl.
Perhaps because of this face, he was always bullied or desired by others, which is why he later always wore a mask, rarely taking it off.
An Nuan could understand his hatred for people like Zi Xing.
An Nuan looked at over a dozen cucumbers.
Eating them would be disgusting.
Not eating them would be a waste of food.
"Luoluo, why don't you send the cucumbers to Juanzi? She likes to chew on them!"
Luoluo: ...
She felt a strange, indescribable feeling.
Anyway, she delivered them, and Juanzi and Daizi even ate them...
That evening, Luoluo filtered out several suitable veterinarians.
[The first one is already dead, the second one mutated. Both of the previous two are passed.]
Black Smoke suddenly reappeared from the screen.
It helped Luoluo filter out three people.
[Highly recommend the second one named Chen Xiao.]
"Chen Xiao? But his resume isn't the second best. He's a national-level veterinarian with 17 years of experience, very skilled."
[No, too dangerous. Sister-in-law... you can't go.]
Sister-in-law?
An Nuan narrowed her eyes. That word was rather jarring.
[In any case, it's dangerous. You can't go!]
"But I don't trust ordinary doctors. An experienced one is better. Let's go with him, Shi Huai!"
[No, no, no! You can't go. My brother will kill me if he finds out.]
An Nuan and everyone else showed sly smiles.
Hai Changfeng hummed, "Your brother? So Black Smoke is two brothers."
Fu Yunlei bit his lip with tears threatening to fall.
Just two days ago, his arm had been dislocated by his brother, and it still hurt. How could he not learn his lesson?
Fu Yunlei regretted it. If only he had crossed Shi Huai off the list earlier!
"Little brother Black Smoke, we're going to the zoo to find Shi Huai. But look at our lineup: three fighters, one toxic healer, one ordinary person, a half-baked brother, and a slow-witted child. The remaining two combatants are busy making babies. Our combat power is insufficient. What if we encounter danger..."
Hai Changfeng coaxed him.
"Even though we haven't met, we are friends who help each other. We're like half a family. Would you bear to see your family in danger? Think of something, can you get us some equipment?"
Fu Yunlei: ...
He didn't care about others being in danger, but An Nuan and Luoluo could not.
If Luoluo died, Sister-in-law would collapse, and if Sister-in-law collapsed, Big Brother would collapse.
The dialog box disappeared.
Luoluo tried to contact him several times but failed.
Hai Changfeng grumbled, "Did he run away? So stingy? Just ran off after a few words?"
As soon as Hai Changfeng finished speaking, a tapping sound came from outside the glass door.
"It's the mechanical birds!"
Two of them!
One resembled a sunbird in its emerald green color, and the other had the colors of a large-headed parrot.
An Nuan let them both in.
The mechanical birds hopped onto the empty space in the living room and spat out two small crystals.
Their eyes shot out lasers, and together with the light waves from their mouths, they constructed two items.
"A gun? Armor? Xiao Nuan, what is this?"
An Nuan couldn't reply to Luoluo.
She was stunned!
Her eyes were wide open, her mouth slightly ajar, looking a bit like a simpleton.
"How is this possible... a laser gun, protective armor, how can they be here!"
An Nuan picked up the laser gun and pulled the switch. The laser gun transformed into two forms in her hand.
One was a short-range pistol-like model.
The other was a long-range shooter. Although its power was not comparable to Juanzi's laser eyes, it could fire continuously for a short period, making it very practical.
This gun would have cost fifty catties of rice in the apocalypse.
Fifty catties of rice! Many people wouldn't have eaten a single grain of rice in three years. It was an extreme luxury item!
In An Nuan's previous life, An Dong's faction only had five laser guns.
With those five laser guns, they had swept away many small groups. Even a third-order ability user might not have survived under its fire.
The other item was even more incredible.
The protective armor weighed about the same as a sweater but offered excellent protection.
The attacks of zombies and ability users below third order were nothing against it. It could withstand the impact of a grenade head-on. For more intense firepower, it would depend on the situation.
With such an item, survival rates would skyrocket.
In her previous life, before she died, protective armor had reached its third generation. An Nuan had only seen the first and second generations. The only difference between this one and the first generation was its weight, which was a little over half a catty heavier than the first generation she had seen before.
However, this slight increase in weight was negligible when worn, and she barely felt it.
She hadn't expected the core of these weapons to be crystals.
Did Black Smoke want these things to develop weapons?
An Nuan held the protective armor, her arms trembling.
From her expression, everyone understood how powerful these two items were.
"Xiao Nuan, are these two things very powerful?"
"Extremely powerful! One is for defense, the other for offense. With these two items, even an ordinary person can fight against a third-order zombie."
"So powerful! These two cheaters, Black Smoke brothers, are really reliable!"
Luoluo quickly picked up the armor and held it up to An Nuan.
"Put it on quickly, you'll be safe with this armor!"
"Me? I didn't think about wearing it myself."
An Nuan looked at Hai Changfeng and Lan Mi.
These two people in the team needed protection the most, followed by Xiao Long, and Chen Wenjing, who had just awakened her teleportation ability and hadn't officially entered first order.
An Nuan didn't want to be beautiful alone; she hoped that the people in her team could survive the apocalypse together.
If the team had peak combat power, the others also needed to have average strength.
Chen Wenjing saw through her thoughts and quickly said, "I already have a laser knife, I don't need this. Xiao Long has many people protecting him, so he doesn't need the armor either."
"I don't need it either. Your armor is too small, I won't fit into it!"
Hai Changfeng voluntarily withdrew from the competition.
An Nuan smiled, "It looks small, but it will fit snugly when worn. It's not gender-specific."
"This is too high-tech!"
It was practically inhuman technology! Hai Changfeng clicked his tongue, marveling that the inventor of this thing was not human!
Everyone's gaze fell on Lan Mi.
She quickly shook her head, "I'll pass. I'll never be at the forefront, so the armor would be wasted on me."
"But you're good with guns, right? I remember you were in the shooting club and even won awards in competitions?"
Lan Mi smiled shyly.
She hadn't expected Luoluo to have such a good memory, remembering things she had said in casual conversation.
An Nuan immediately made her decision.
"Laser gun for you, protective armor for Hai Changfeng. It's settled. Does anyone have any objections?"
Chang Kai Tong still felt it was best for An Nuan to have them.
But since Sister Nuan had made the decision, he could only respect and support it.
