Chen Luo held Mifan in his arms, letting it absorb the Level 6 crystal.

This was his precious darling; how could he let anything happen to it?

If Mifan felt pain, Chen Luo would feel it too.

Under Chen Luo's protection, Mifan only felt a brief pang before Chen Luo, who was watching closely, removed the crystal from its paws.

Chen Luo checked the remaining crystal power. It was enough for Mifan to use for another four or five days, which was more than enough for Mifan to advance from Level 3 to Level 4.

Chen Luo decided to give the Level 4 wind-type crystal he had prepared for Mifan to Mili.

Jiang Wu's Level 4 crystal was perfect for Su Dazhu.

There was still a bit of power left in the Level 5 fire-type zombie crystal; he would give it to Miling.

He wanted them to reach Level 4 as soon as possible. He couldn't let random cats and dogs reach Level 4 while his wife and brothers were still at Level 3.

Reaching Level 4 would significantly improve their strength and save Chen Luo a lot of worry.

With three Level 4 fighters, the entire base's strength would greatly improve. He couldn't be the only strong one.

These crystals weren't of much help to Chen Luo; they wouldn't help him reach Level 6 at all.

After reaching Level 6, Level 2 crystals would be useless again, and his strength wouldn't increase. It was better to slowly grind his way to Level 6 with Level 2 crystals.

After finishing the absorption, Mifan looked at Chen Luo pitifully. It knew that at this time, Chen Luo would abandon it, a single cat, and run to find Mili.

Chen Luo couldn't stand those heart-wrenching eyes. "Let's be a little closer, so the perception will be more accurate in the future, okay?"

Besides, if the ox worked too hard, the field couldn't take it.

Chen Luo slept with Mifan. Originally sleeping in the middle, Mifan unconsciously climbed onto Chen Luo's stomach.

Chen Luo felt it but couldn't bear to wake Mifan, so he let it lie on his stomach.

Mifan unconsciously moved to Chen Luo's neck.

As dawn approached, the sleepy Mifan kicked its paws randomly.

"Take my continuous kicks!"

Chen Luo suffered a cruel blow.

Chen Luo: !!!

"If I let you sleep on me again, I'm a dog."

...

Not far from Chen Luo, the sky was just beginning to brighten.

On the street were two men, one in his early twenties and the other about seventeen or eighteen years old.

The older one lay on the ground, his face a bloody mess, with little life left in him.

He weakly gasped, "Brother, I've observed it. Join that base in the villa district. It's safe there, and you don't have to worry about the people around you stabbing you in the back."

Xu Yang looked at his brother and cried bitterly, "Brother, don't die! You're the only family I have left. Let's join together."

His brother smiled weakly, "I can't make it. We only have two crystals now. According to the requirements, we need three. We're still short one."

"But there's no requirement that the crystals have to be from zombies. Dig out my crystal, make it three, and you can join."

His brother grew weaker and weaker until his head fell limply.

Only Xu Yang was left alone on the street, heartbroken.

Xu Yang eventually dug out his brother's crystal, but his mindset had undergone a complete change.

Wasn't it good for survivors to unite and help each other? Why did they insist on three crystals?

Even though we were a little weak at first, why didn't they give us a chance to join them in killing zombies?

Wasn't it easy to kill zombies in a team?

Why did they force me and my brother to kill zombies alone?

If it weren't for their harsh joining requirements, my brother wouldn't have died.

I hate them. I want all of them to be buried with my brother.

Xu Yang's idea was to join Chen Luo's group first, and then find a way to plunge Chen Luo's side into the abyss to commemorate his brother.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Xu Yang, who had finally collected himself and was no longer so hateful, arrived at the entrance of the villa district.

The members on duty were used to it.

Every day, several, or even seven or eight, survivors who met the requirements joined the base.

They would take out the crystals as proof and then let the leader take a look.

Letting Chen Luo take a look, of course, was to see if they had any malicious intent.

Chen Luo had nothing to do every day, so he would take Mifan to take a look.

Xu Yang came to Chen Luo's side, looking downcast and with a practiced smile.

Mifan's ability to detect malice was passive. As long as someone had malice towards it or the people it cared about, it could sense it.

Mifan also happily contributed its power.

Mifan said, "This person, he wants to kill you."

Chen Luo didn't show it on his face after hearing this, but he was puzzled in his heart.

I've always made sure to eliminate future troubles. If I can kill them, I'll kill them on the spot.

What's the grudge that they want to kill me?

Xu Yang felt even more resentful when he saw Chen Luo in casual clothes, holding a beautiful cat in his arms.

You're here leisurely teasing a cat, while others have to risk their lives.

You deserve to die.

Why are you so carefree, while my brother died without even a place to be buried?

Xu Yang's malice made Mifan uneasy. It had never seen such intense malice.

Chen Luo sneered. "Where did this malice come from? Why don't I just ask?"

Chen Luo smilingly personally took Xu Yang to settle down, while the members on duty couldn't believe it.

Did this kid have some special ability, or did he know the leader, that the leader was personally taking him to settle down?

Tsk, tsk, what a lucky kid.

Letting Mifan go back first—the scene was not suitable for viewing—Chen Luo took Xu Yang into Jin Tao's room.

It was a good opportunity to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.

Poor Jin Tao, his legs were broken, and Chen Luo was putting him to good use, having him summon skeleton soldiers for the members to practice combat with.

There was a kind of dishonesty called "Chen Luo thinks you're dishonest." Xu Yang came at just the right time.

As soon as he entered the door, Chen Luo slapped Xu Yang in the face without saying a word.

Xu Yang staggered and fell to the ground from the blow.

If Chen Luo hadn't deliberately controlled his strength, Xu Yang would have lost all his teeth.

Xu Yang was dumbfounded. Why did he hit me?

Jin Tao watched, trembling in fear. Yes, why did he hit him, just like how we were talking nicely, and then someone broke my legs?

This person is a devil.

Chen Luo said with a smile, "Tell me, why do you want to kill me, or who sent you?"

Xu Yang was shocked. How could this person know that I wanted to kill him?

Impossible.

I didn't even dare to look at him.

Xu Yang said aggrievedly, "We're meeting for the first time, how could I want to kill you? I sincerely want to join."

Xu Yang thought, could it be a test? Does everyone who enters have to go through such a test?

Chen Luo slapped him again, "Tell me, I have limited patience."

Several slaps in a row made Xu Yang dizzy, and his front teeth were knocked out.

This is really a test?

What kind of test is this? Who can withstand such a test?

Xu Yang finally couldn't bear it any longer. If he was hit again, he would be beaten to death.

There was only one person here, so he would fight him.

Xu Yang stood up coldly, his hands surging with lightning on one hand and a scorching fireball on the other.

Chen Luo's pupils shrank. Dual abilities.
