Hmph, there’s nothing I can’t get my hands on as the King of the Void.
Since mastering the ability to walk through the void, I have only failed once.
These four sea turtle eggs already possess some life force and cannot be placed in the ability space. Chen Luo had to carry them as he runs.
It’s unnecessary to use the ability to walk through the void unless absolutely needed. It saves energy, and now he’s safe.
Late at night, a man, acting suspiciously, with a smug and somewhat creepy expression on his face, hurriedly runs through a barren forest, bending over with four white eggs in his hands.
He keeps looking around, observing the surroundings from time to time.
Soon, Chen Luo reaches his car and drives away.
Looking at the four sea turtle eggs, Chen Luo doesn’t find them to be too few. The stronger the creature, the lower their reproduction rate.
If the Sea Turtle King had laid dozens of eggs, Chen Luo wouldn’t be pleased either.
This indicates that thier individual potential is strong.
Without resting, Chen Luo rushes back to the base overnight.
He encounters no major troubles during the night. By around seven in the morning, Chen Luo returns to the base.
Without rushing to the warm bed, Chen Luo takes out study materials and reads about how to hatch sea turtle eggs.
After following the instructions for placement, he enters the villa.
The Thunderbolt King sticks out his tongue beside him, looking left and right, wanting to touch them with his claws.
Chen Luo’s eyes widen, “If you break one, I’ll deduct 2,000 points from you.”
The Thunderbolt King is shocked. Killing a Level 5 and obtaining its crystal only gives 500 points. It would take four kills to make up for it.
He may look down on it, but he can’t afford to provoke it.
Mi Li also wakes up and is naturally delighted to see Chen Luo.
A day without seeing each other feels like an eternity.
Mi Li takes out a white stick, resembling a wand, carved with patterns, and hands it to Chen Luo.
“This is what Long Yu refined yesterday evening. It’s very useful, saving about 15% of energy and providing a similar effect to a 10% amplification.”
Chen Luo’s face lights up. Really? Long Yu has yielded results so quickly?
Long Yu melts the metal into liquid, continuously altering its internal structure, and then tests its various properties.
For example, its strength, sharpness, and amplification of abilities.
Based on the results, it can be shaped into the form of a sword, shield, or wand.
Some patterns can also be carved onto it.
It may seem simple, as if any metal can do it, but it’s like cooking, talent matters.
Advanced metals can only be created with a corresponding ability level. Long Yu can grow to the King level, making it extremely valuable.
Mi Li laments, “Unfortunately, it amplifies me greatly, but the effect on my sister is relatively small.”
Different metals have different effects on different elements. Some even have no amplification and can be restrictive.
Chen Luo takes the wand and experiments with it. It provides a slight amplification, but it’s too small.
This is due to Chen Luo having a higher level.
If Mi Li’s level were to increase, the amplification from this wand would become lower.
After some contemplation, Chen Luo realizes that Long Yu joined because it wanted to exterminate the zombies. However, relying solely on that is not enough. It’s time to enhance Long Yu’s treatment at the appropriate time.
Only by eating well can better research be conducted.
Chen Luo arrives at Long Yu’s small courtyard and enters the room, where he sees Long Yu and Lei Hao conducting experiments.
Long Yu’s hair is messy, with dark circles under its eyes, completely unaware of Chen Luo’s arrival.
On the other hand, Lei Hao looks exhausted, muttering to himself, “Being your assistant is really unlucky for me. I’m so tired. You’re a research maniac, aren’t you?”
Chen Luo doesn’t disturb them and quietly watches.
Long Yu’s excitement grew as time passed, and he looked up to see Chen Luo and laughed.
“You came at the right time. It seems like I’ve discovered a material that amplifies the power of lightning. Take it to Elder Dog and let him try it out.”
“If the effect is good, I’ll solidify this material.”
Chen Luo nodded with a smile.
The Thunderbolt King stood up straight, but this time it wasn’t wearing its black cloak.
It was an eyesore.
After conducting a lightning experiment, the Thunderbolt King shouted in excitement.
Rice translated, “It seems to have increased the power by 20%.”
That was quite remarkable.
However, the Thunderbolt King was feeling frustrated. It was used to walking on all fours, and it wasn’t accustomed to having two legs. On the other hand, it couldn’t hold a staff with four legs.
This world was unfriendly to dogs. It seemed like it really had to practice walking on two legs.
There was nothing in the world that could stump this Elder.
Chen Luo handed a level five crystal to Long Yu, which happened to be the one sealed by Zheng Qing.
“Take it and use it.”
Long Yu was now at level five and needed a higher level to have more abilities and conduct more experiments.
Long Yu didn’t waste any time and took it.
Chen Luo didn’t give the level eight crystal; he needed it too.
Chen Luo wanted to advance to level seven earlier because with that advancement, he could experiment with time acceleration. The increase in ability power was crucial, and there was nothing more important at the moment.
Advancing in strength would also provide better protection for the entire base.
At noon, Chen Luo personally brought a pound of braised pork to Long Yu.
It was the kind that looked delicious.
Seeing the beautifully colored braised pork, Long Yu was extremely shocked and stuttered, “Where did it come from?”
Chen Luo smiled and said, “I can manipulate space. You know that. In the early days of the apocalypse, I acquired the ability to control space and stored some meat. Although it’s not much, it should be enough for you.”
“You’re a researcher, so you should eat better. From now on, you can have a pound of braised pork every day.”
Before Chen Luo finished speaking, Long Yu grabbed a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing quickly.
“It’s delicious! Mm, so delicious.”
“I can’t remember the last time I had such tasty meat.”
Long Yu’s eyes sparkled, and he carefully sucked on his fingers in his mouth. When he saw Chen Luo looking at him, he awkwardly said, “I couldn’t resist, hehe. Big brother, you don’t mind, do you?”
Lei Hao was drooling uncontrollably beside them.
Chen Luo glanced at him and said, “You take good care of Long Yu. You can have three ounces every day, and you can exchange points with me when you earn them. But remember, don’t spread the word, alright?”
Chen Luo didn’t lack meat like Lei Hao did. He was Long Yu’s assistant, and while he watched Long Yu eat, not letting him have any would surely breed resentment.
Lei Hao nodded in excitement, and his previous fatigue vanished instantly.
He had come to the right place. Could he eat meat if he were the boss elsewhere?
Seeing Long Yu’s dirty clothes with a black collar, Chen Luo frowned.
He needed to recruit some logistics personnel and strengthen the logistics team appropriately.
The most suitable candidates were girls.
Among Chen Luo’s members, there were over six hundred girls, but he couldn’t let them come.
They were treated the same as men, killing zombies just like them. Why should they take care of the men after killing zombies?
He needed to find a suitable opportunity to hire some inexpensive service staff.
The rest of the members should focus on strengthening the base.
