Chapter 1 The Shock of Kuang Lei

Looking at the level nine lightning-type crystal in Chen Luo's hand, Kuang Lei was dumbfounded.

His face hurt. He had just mocked Chen Luo and was immediately slapped in the face.

Kuang Lei couldn't even tell what level this crystal was due to its size.

One of Kuang Lei's teammates looked at the crystal in Chen Luo's hand in disbelief and muttered, "This crystal is too fake, too fake. How can there be such a big crystal?"

Chen Luo chuckled, but Kuang Lei shook his head and said, "It's real. I can feel the lightning energy inside."

Why was Kuang Lei called Kuang Lei (Crazy Lightning)?

Because he was crazy, competitive, and cared about face.

He did have the ability, and he was very loyal to his teammates.

Kuang Lei kept glancing at Chen Luo's crystal, pretending to be dismissive, and said, "Just lucky. He found a high-level mutant corpse. My level six crystal was obtained by killing a mutant."

What else could he do? Kuang Lei would never admit defeat.

Lucky?

Are you forcing me to show off?

Showing off in front of nobodies was boring, but showing off in front of this Kuang Lei, Chen Luo found it very interesting.

Besides, Chen Luo was interested in Kuang Lei. The poor guy was killed by Fa Wang (Law King) in his past life because of a meaningless ranking.

Chen Luo took out three more crystals. The first was a level ten lightning-type crystal from killing the giant electric eel, with a little energy remaining.

The second was a flesh-type crystal that Tie Tou (Iron Head) hadn't used up. Chen Luo planned to strengthen Da Zhuang (Big Strong) and find an opportunity to send it to him.

The third was Xiong Wenhui's level eight wind-type crystal.

The level ten light-type crystal was with Mi Li.

Chen Luo felt embarrassed, he only had these few crystals, and most of them were out of energy.

Aunt Hai Ji, no, Sister Hai Ji, please give me more New Year's money.

Kuang Lei looked at the crystals in Chen Luo's hand as if he had seen a ghost. Their levels were all very high.

Especially the purple lightning-type crystal, which was even bigger than the first one Chen Luo took out.

How could he have so many high-level crystals?

Kuang Lei remembered Chen Luo's words, "Sorry, I don't have such low-level crystals."

Was it true?

Damn it, where did he get them?

Chen Luo smiled and said, "Fake? Lucky? Say it again. You want to trade that piece of junk in your hand with me?"

Chen Luo left with a disdainful expression.

This Kuang Lei was too arrogant and couldn't be subdued so easily. It would be too degrading and unlikely to ask him to be his subordinate, and it might make him even more arrogant.

He would try to suppress him more in the future.

After all, he was a strong person even among the King level. Chen Luo always wanted to try more and give him more opportunities. His character was still good, and he was loyal.

If it really didn't work, he would let him be Fa Wang's stepping stone.

Kuang Lei looked at Chen Luo's departing back with a gloomy expression. Damn it, he was shown up.

How did he get those high-level crystals? Did he just find them by luck?

No way.

After wandering around again, Chen Luo saw a few familiar figures, but he couldn't remember them. They might be future outstanding level nine or ten experts.

Of course, he wouldn't take the initiative to ask them to join him.

Too degrading.

Chen Luo gave an order to his subordinate behind him, and the subordinate immediately went to carry out the order.

Soon, advertisements were displayed in conspicuous places.

Nothing else, recruiting people.

Recruitment conditions: level five minimum.

Those who could advance to level five at this time were all elites. Unless they had special abilities, Chen Luo wouldn't want level four members anymore.

After a while, he wouldn't even want ordinary level five members.

With such a big tone, how could he not offer some attractive conditions?

Benefits: Food guaranteed, crystals guaranteed.

The ad clearly stated what they ate for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Just a bite of sugar garlic was enough to attract many people.

Crystals were guaranteed, as much as they could absorb. Now, even ordinary members had to kill three zombies every day.

Therefore, the crystals supplied were also level four, no longer the previous level three crystals.

The zombies in the coastal cities were slowly migrating towards the surrounding areas of Shendu (Divine Capital) because there was no one there. Why stay there?

There was no need to worry about not having enough zombies to kill in the short term.

Next was the environment.

The advertisement showed what the accommodation conditions were like inside the base, with high-definition photos as proof, clean and tidy.

Facilities: basketball court, soccer field, internet cafe, library, cinema.

All had pictures, and the games installed on the computers were listed as examples.

Materials such as toothpaste, towels, and clothes were distributed regularly.

Elite members: one serving of vegetables per day.

Elders: unlimited supply of vegetables.

Before the apocalypse, would these conditions attract social elites?

Get lost.

But at this time, many base leaders, even the bosses, didn't have this kind of life.

There was also a remark in the most conspicuous position on the right.

Remark: Provide items of sufficient value to protect your personal safety or meet any of your needs.

Seeing this condition, many people who had already arrived gasped.

Starting at level five? That's too high.

There might not even be one level five esper among a hundred survivors.

One in a hundred?

But the benefits were really good, like heaven.

Some people were shocked by Chen Luo's requirements, but a small number of level five espers were moved.

Coach, I want to play basketball.

I want to eat potatoes even more.

Seeing more and more people arriving, Chen Luo stopped wandering around and went to the seat in the inner area, lying down to rest.

Mi Li was getting more and more powerful.

Only the east side could enter the inner area, and the other directions were blocked by obstacles. Xiong Wenhui guarded the east gate.

There was a conspicuous sign:

Non-level five, no entry. Consequences at your own risk.

Xiong Wenhui's big eyes glared, and she occasionally checked a few people to test their strength. If they weren't level five, sorry.

"You dare to lie to me?"

Xiong Wenhui roared, "Bear Power!"

A giant bear more than seven meters tall appeared, and Xiong Wenhui stomped the esper to death.

Turned into mincemeat.

Xiong Wenhui snorted coldly, "I let you try and you died. You dare to lie to me?

I'm not stupid."

The esper's body was thrown at the intersection, warning every survivor who wanted to sneak in and take a look.

In the south, Jin Yuanjiang patrolled here to prevent anyone from crossing the obstacles and directly entering the inner area.

A group of people came over, wanting to enter directly.

The leader was a young man.

Some people, you know at a glance that they are sick.

The young man shook his neck from time to time, squinted his eyes, didn't look at people straight, and his eyes were full of violence and arrogance.

Someone stopped them: "Sorry, you have to go through the east gate."

The young man was stunned for a moment, then laughed neurotically, and looked fiercely at the member who stopped him.

"Go ask around, when has I, Tie Zhao (Iron Claw), ever followed the rules?"

"It's giving you face that your granddaddy Iron Claw came."

His palms were different from ordinary people, like the claws of a bird of prey.

It really was Iron Claw.
