Early morning.
When Lam Pham went downstairs, he saw Nhan Ny Ny and smiled. In contrast, Nhan Ny Ny was a bit embarrassed. The situation last night was truly indescribable; she wanted to find a crack to hide in.
Of course, even more so, she had made up her mind that no matter what, she had to learn cooking well from Sister Ly. She absolutely had to improve her cooking skills. With the current situation, it was truly too embarrassing.
He called over Old Chung, Diep Thien, Dong Gia, and Chuc Thanh.
"Where you need to go now is the production site, to transport ten sets of battle armor back."
Lam Pham still decided to let them go.
The production site was remote, and the surrounding zombies had almost all been cleared. There was no danger. And he needed to stay in Hoang City to continue clearing zombies.
Clear out the zombies as soon as possible, then he could start on the next matter.
"Ten sets? That's a lot. If we can have ten sets of battle armor, under conditions of perfect coordination, I feel we can confidently take on any kind of zombie."
The foolish Old Chung began to fantasize.
At this moment, not far away, Chu Duong, ever since coming to the Duong Quang shelter, had been unable to find his own positioning. Perhaps his ears were relatively sharp, as he heard the words "battle armor."
Naturally, he recommended himself, "Brother Lam, I want to make my contribution to the Duong Quang shelter."
Not a single word mentioned "battle armor," but what he wanted was battle armor.
Regardless of whether one was an Awakened or not, no man could refuse the charm of battle armor. If one could truly refuse, then that man had definitely undergone a transformation and was certainly not a pure man.
"You want to go too?"
"Mhm, I want to go. I am also a Strength Awakened. I want to learn from Old Chung. As a member of the Duong Quang shelter, if I don't do something, I always feel like I'm useless. At the same time, I also want to integrate into everyone's environment."
Chu Duong very directly stated his thoughts.
Some things required initiative. If one didn't take the initiative and thought of waiting for others to take the lead, that was a very bad thing.
"Alright then, you go take a look," Lam Pham said.
Chu Duong smiled, walked in front of everyone, "Everyone, I hope you'll take care of me. I, Chu Duong, am a reliable person. If we fight side by side, please entrust your back to me with confidence. If I retreat even one step, may my whole family die."
Old Chung: ...?
Dong Gia: ...?
Diep Thien: ...?
Chuc Thanh seemed to want to quietly ask, "Big brother, is your family still around?"
Of course, he didn't dare to say it out loud; he was afraid of being beaten up.
Lam Pham patted Chu Duong's shoulder and said: "It's not that serious. I trust you. You all go. Leave early and return early. Pay attention to safety."
Watching their departing figures.
Lam Pham was full of hope for the future.
Co Hang came over and said: "It's really good. There are more and more people who can be used, and everyone is full of fighting spirit. Under the effect of crystals, they can also burst out with astonishing strength. I really don't know when I can become an Awakened."
Lam Pham said: "Brother Hang, some things really can't be forced. It really depends on fate. But I think there will definitely be such an opportunity."
"I hope so," Co Hang sighed.
He really hoped he could become an Awakened. As a soldier, he didn't want to be protected by others; he liked to protect others. This was a kind of mission, a mission that pierced through to the soul.
Co Hang thought of something, "By the way, haven't you thought about enhancing Van Van's abilities?"
"No." Lam Pham smiled, "She's still a child, and her emotions are unstable. If she gets into an argument with other children, and her psionic power is too strong, it could easily cause danger. But... I've prepared something for Van Van."
"Huh?"
"I've prepared twenty white crystals, twenty black crystals for Van Van. Light yellow crystals are hard to come by; Old Chung and the others haven't absorbed them yet. I can only prepare these for now. If something unexpected happens in the future, such as my death, then Van Van's psionic power will be the strongest awakened ability. She will bear the final hope."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Even if we die, you won't die."
Co Hang was helpless. Little Pham was just prone to overthinking. Honestly, he felt Little Pham was truly an existence at the peak of formidability. In this world, there was definitely nothing that could threaten Little Pham's life.
Lam Pham smiled, "Let's not talk about it, let's not talk about it. Just kidding."
Co Hang glanced at Little Pham, finally patted Lam Pham's shoulder, "Don't talk nonsense either."
"Got it."
The street.
Lam Pham, holding the Screamer-type zombie, hunted the appearing zombies.
"In un-cleared areas, there are many surprises. Ten streets, and I got four white crystals, three black crystals, and one light yellow crystal. The probability of such an existence is truly unimaginable."
He always felt that he was compressing the zombies' living environment.
Causing them to only be able to continuously retreat.
Finally surviving in that small area.
He gently patted the Screamer-type zombie's head, "You've really worked hard. If it weren't for you, it wouldn't have been possible for me to be so smooth all along."
His gratitude towards the Screamer-type zombie was profound.
But he felt no love for it at all.
After all, between humans and zombies, unless it was Officer Hoang, it was impossible.
Swish!
Swish!
Just then, he heard movement around him, and then he saw a zombie whose limbs replaced its legs.
"Predator."
A zombie whose crystal had reached golden.
He hadn't expected the Screamer-type zombie to actually attract this type of zombie. Thinking carefully, it probably wasn't this situation. Predators wouldn't be affected by Screamer-type zombies.
Clearly, it knew there were humans here.
The Predator moved at extreme speed, shifting left and right. Human naked eyes could catch it, but only an afterimage. In an instant, the Predator appeared behind Lam Pham and attacked him.
Splat!
Lam Pham turned around, his hand-blade swiped horizontally, directly severing the Predator's head.
The round, ferocious, ugly head rolled on the ground.
[Killed Predator]
[Points +40]
A very good harvest.
He cut open its head and took out a golden crystal.
If Old Chung and the others saw such a scene, they would definitely kneel in worship. This was a true expert. To become an expert like Lam Pham, who knew how many crystals one needed to gnaw.
"Clear, continue to clear. The area in Hoang City that needs to be cleared is getting smaller and smaller. I think I can do it."
He increased his speed. With one step, he turned into an afterimage and vanished from the spot. In the past, when he cleared zombies, he always liked to dawdle, like strolling, walking on the street, looking at the surrounding shops.
Feeling the desolation of the streets in the apocalypse.
For the zombies.
They had long regarded human cities as their territory. But with Lam Pham's appearance, all balance was completely broken. No matter what kind of zombie, upon encountering Lam Pham, their fate was either to be cut in half or to have their crystals taken out.
There was no third possibility.
Production site.
"Welcome."
As Old Chung and the others arrived, the base manager received them. Professor Ha had already informed him that survivors from Hoang City would personally come to collect the battle armor.
Old Chung greeted them.
The production staff of the base looked at Old Chung and Dong Gia wearing battle armor. Although they had watched the battle armor being produced, they still had a relatively clear understanding of the zombie situation.
Could the battle armor they produced really contend with those terrifying evolved zombies?
At the very beginning, when the battle armor was researched, everyone was full of hope. But later, when they came into contact with the situation of zombie species, they gradually began to doubt the effectiveness of the battle armor. Could it really play a key role in the apocalypse?
The manager led them to the place where the battle armor was displayed. Countless sets of battle armor were placed there in an orderly manner.
Chu Duong couldn't help but step forward and touch the cold texture of the battle armor.
"So cool."
Ever since he joined the Duong Quang shelter, he had understood how to proceed in the future. He had also been gnawing on crystals, feeling his abilities enhance, and knew how formidable the defense mechanism of the battle armor was. Facing ordinary zombies, even if surrounded, he could rely on his strong power to fight his way out.
Even if he encountered evolved zombies, he wouldn't be afraid at all.
He felt that one of the battle armors there was definitely his.
