"Yes."
Inside the tree hollow, Qi Feng watched as the number of mutated animals that had surged towards him gradually decreased. Lei Qi and He Fei had also gone out at this time. Estimating the time, they threw a few smoke grenades out of the tree hollow. The smoke quickly dissipated, and it was no longer possible to see what was happening inside. Qi Feng hid in the tree hollow and adjusted the mode of the Crystal Core in his hand. The weapon immediately locked onto the nearby mutated animals that were still warm from their bodies.
Sang Luoluo noticed that the Crystal Core was running out of energy, so she immediately filled it with the twenty-odd Crystal Core she had just obtained.
The suppressive fire never stopped, and no mutated animals approached them.
The situation is better now; with sufficient firepower, the mutated animals that attacked them have been dealt with.
Qi Feng felt this was not a place to linger, and turned to Sang Luoluo, saying, "This is not a safe place to stay; let's go out."
Sang Luoluo nodded, and in an instant, all the cushions and nightlights in the tree hole entered her space. The next moment, she followed Qi Feng out. Qi Feng pulled her along and moved quickly. Occasionally, mutated animals would pounce on them, but he would quickly shoot them to eliminate them, without even stepping into the 10-meter range that Sang Luoluo could control.
He Fei's voice came through. "Boss, I've spotted some people in the shadows. They're hiding in the trees, there are four of them."
Qi Feng asked, "Can we take them down?"
He Fei said, " Lei Qi and I are about the same."
Qi Feng asked, "Tell me the location."
Qi Feng pulled Sang Luoluo out of the smoky area and said, "They're in that tree over there. Can you take me up the tree?"
Sang Luoluo replied, "I'll give it a try."
Sang Luoluo and then made herself fly up. She then used her Mental Power to control Qi Feng, making him land steadily on the trunk of a large tree nearby. The next moment, Qi Feng had already set his sights on the distance.
He called out to He Fei on the channel, "I'm ready."
Sang Luoluo watched from the side.
He Fei said, "Then I'll fire."
With the first shot, one person fell from the tree, followed immediately by a second. Before the remaining two could react, He Fei and Qi Feng continued firing. At this moment, Lei Qi had already moved over at lightning speed and, after the last two fell, promptly finished them off, confirming that all four of them were dead. He also noticed that their equipment was still in good condition.
Four Crystal Core, plus dozens of Crystal Core in total, as well as other equipment and bio-pheromone potions. This stuff is really good; it's excellent at attracting mutated animals.
He Fei: "Boss, it's solved."
Qi Feng said, "Don't let your guard down. Since four of them dared to come, it means they have accomplices. Let's ambush them."
The harsh environment in the forest was disadvantageous to them, and equally disadvantageous to those people.
The Zhan Qun finished their fight and rushed over. Looking up at Qi Feng in the tree, they asked, "I've dealt with the mutated animals here. How's it going on your end?"
Qi Feng briefly explained the situation.
The Zhan Qun ordered Yan Lang to ambush in another direction.
There are so many mutated animal corpses here now, and their corpses contain quite a few Crystal Core. After a fierce battle, they have consumed a lot of their Crystal Core and need to replenish their energy.
"Get a few people back and deal with the corpses; we're running out of Crystal Core."
Sang Luoluo put Qi Feng down, and then lightly landed on the ground herself.
The Zhan Qun, along with a few others, broke open the mutated animal carcasses on the other side to collect Crystal Core.
Sang Luoluo and Qi Feng worked together. She used her Mental Power to lift the mutated animal with many Crystal Core inside its body and move it in front of Qi Feng. Qi Feng directly used the Crystal Core knife to cut open the corpse, and with the help of the detection instrument, took out the Crystal Core inside and threw them into the bag at his feet, all in one go.
Sang Luoluo casually threw the dissected corpse out.
The Zhan Qun bent down and searched the ground one by one. Seeing that this was too slow, Sang Luoluo said, "Let's do it like an assembly line. You guys are too slow. You and Qi Feng stand in a line, and I'll carry the corpses for you. We'll share the Crystal Core we get. Any leftovers can be divided among us."
Discussing the ownership of the Crystal Core now is too likely to cause internal strife. It would be better to divide them equally, since everyone has contributed a lot and now the division of labor is different.
The Zhan Qun had no objections; what they lacked most right now was time and Crystal Core.
"Good."
The others were immediately relieved to hear that they could get a share.
Sang Luoluo noticed that the mutated animals with many Crystal Core had lined up in front of them, while those with only one or two Crystal Core were ignored. They simply didn't have time; the longer they delayed, the more mutated animals would arrive.
Six corpses at a time, working like an assembly line, everyone sped up, finishing a batch in about 10 seconds. Sang Luoluo moved the corpses quickly, and the Crystal Core under everyone's feet slowly began to accumulate.
High efficiency is not acceptable.
Over there, Yan Lang spotted new enemies and whispered in the public channel, "They're here, five people."
He Fei added, "There are four over here too."
The Zhan Qun asked, "Can this be resolved?"
He Fei and Lei Qi worked well together, so he said, "I can do it on my end."
Zhan Qun continued, "Where's Yan Lang?"
Yan Lang secretly rolled his eyes, clearly unconvinced. "Who do you think you are? There are only five people."
Chapter 136, "The Blizzard," concludes that the victim suffered a head injury and was unconscious...
The tall, thin man and his men rushed over, finally arriving, only to find they couldn't contact their own people.
As he moved quickly, he asked in confusion, "Why can't we contact Li Hu and the others?"
"They couldn't have encountered some mutated animal and been attacked, could they? Now that they've discovered those people's trail, they won't let them go. Or maybe they're busy dealing with those people and didn't notice my call."
The tall, thin man sensed something was wrong. He knew his men's strength; they wouldn't fall for his tricks so easily here.
Before he could think it through, a bullet struck him between the eyebrows. His eyes widened and he fell straight down. Before those around him could react, a barrage of attacks swept through, and the bodies of five people lay there neatly arranged.
Yan Lang jumped down from the tree, snorted, and after confirming that they were all dead, he looted all the Crystal Core and Crystal Core from their bodies before turning back. He also took a picture of their dead bodies and sent it to the Zhan Qun.
[This has been resolved.]
The four men who rushed over from the other side worked together perfectly with He Fei and Lei Qi. Lei Qi drew their attention while He Fei hid in a tree and fired sniper shots. In less than a minute, all four men were taken care of.
He Fei: "This side has also been resolved."
The Zhan Qun had expected a fierce battle, but it was resolved so easily. Well, they were members of the base's S-Class Guard S-Class Guard, selected from the best of the best. They must have been too nervous after coming out.
Although they were initially on the defensive, they have now gained the upper hand and successfully laid an ambush on them.
Looking at the corpses scattered on the ground, he said, "Return immediately, prepare to retreat."
After He Fei and Yan Lang's groups returned, they joined the operation of dissecting the corpses of the mutated animals. Apart from the Crystal Core Crystal Core lost in the fight, the remaining Crystal Core were divided equally among everyone.
Each person can get approximately 200 Crystal Core.
Sang Luoluo even traded with them, obtaining 10 black Crystal Core, one of which was the size of a ping-pong ball.
As for the carcasses of those mutated animals, they were simply left there, allowing nearby mutated animals to follow the scent and come over.
The snow on the car hadn't been cleared yet, so everyone got in and left immediately.
It was still dark, but this was not a place to linger.
On the way, the Zhan Qun leader encouraged everyone. "It's not advisable to stay in the woods for long tonight. We don't know if any accomplices have followed. We need to leave here as soon as possible."
"Everyone will take turns resting on the way. From now on, we will try to keep the vehicles moving as much as possible and get to Base No. 32 as quickly as possible."
Yan Lang is now in charge of driving. Everyone takes turns driving, saying, "The weather is terrible right now. The blizzard here is very heavy, and we can't move fast."
Zhan Qun said, "Then let's proceed slowly. We can't stop. If we stop, our original plan will be disrupted. All the supplies are with Sang Luoluo Sang Luoluo now, so everyone must protect her as soon as possible."
After Zhan Qun finished speaking, he leaned against his colleague next to him to rest. There was no other way; the car was too crowded, and it had been a difficult process to put together such a vehicle.
Even this vehicle needs Crystal Core for power. Fortunately, they killed so many mutated animals earlier, and each of them got a lot of Crystal Core.
Sang Luoluo had put all her things in her spatial storage, and she was holding a hand warmer in her arms. She was wearing gloves. After the battle, she was even more exhausted, but she couldn't sleep in the car at all. The car wasn't very spacious, and they were still in the forest. The road was very difficult to travel on, full of potholes. If they weren't careful, the car would fall into a ditch.
After absorbing ten black Crystal Core, Sang Luoluo immediately felt her Mental Power return to its full potential, and secretly marveled at how suitable the black Crystal Core were for her.
If only she had more black Crystal Core, her Mental Power could definitely continue to evolve.
But there's no need to rush it now.
After a short rest, it was dawn.
Driving through the forest during the day, the noise it makes can easily startle mutated animals lying in the snow nearby.
Unfortunately, they were chased by mutated wolves.
They dared not stop the car; they could only extend their Crystal Core and fire.
There were too many mutated wolves; at once, there must have been over a hundred of them attacking.
They looked extremely hungry, staring at them from afar, their mouths watering, as if they wanted to pounce on them and devour them whole.
