Chapter 298 Green Plum and White Moonlight 8
The Jing City base was established quickly. After everyone heard about it, people from nearby areas went to the base. The first batch of psychics and scientific researchers were highly valued by the base.
Therefore, Gu Tianming and others also got a house thanks to Wushan, the biology professor.
After moving in, I found out that Zhang Haijun's family lived next door, and the two families became neighbors.
"Lao Zhang, our two families are really destined to be together."
Gu Tianming greeted Zhang Haijun and was thinking about teaming up with Zhang Haijun. This was a rare opportunity.
"Lao Zhang, let's team up with our two families so that we can have someone to look after us when we go out to look for supplies."
Zhang Haijun shook his head. He didn't want to form a team with outsiders. It was just right for his own family to form a team. He didn't want to share supplies with outsiders.
Gu Tianming was so angry that his teeth were itching, but there was nothing he could do, so he had to return empty-handed.
Although they had a house, they still had to live, so Gu Tianming took Gu Chen and Wu Qiyu with him. Zhao Ling and Chen Jing had no awakened special powers and were timid, so they had to stay at home.
Gu Tianming, Gu Chen and Wu Qiyu, walked nervously through the deserted streets. Their target was a nearby seven-story commercial building.
The interior of the commercial building had been looted multiple times, with shelves toppled over and all kinds of wrapping paper and discarded items scattered on the ground.
Gu Chen led the way, while Wu Qiyu and Gu Tianming followed closely behind, carefully searching for supplies that might have been missed.
"Let's go to the next level. It looks like there's nothing left here."
Wu Qiyu followed Gu Chen and walked towards the door.
"Roar……"
A zombie lurking in the dark suddenly rushed out and pounced towards Wu Qiyu.
It was moving at an astonishing speed, and its rotten fingers were almost touching Wu Qiyu's shoulder.
Wu Qiyu's heartbeat accelerated instantly, and a hint of despair flashed in her eyes.
"Dong...dong dong..."
The sound of Wu Qiyu's heartbeat almost drowned her mind, and an unprecedented power surged in her body.
There was only one thought in her mind - escape!
Suddenly, Wu Qiyu's figure disappeared from the spot, and the next moment, she appeared two meters away.
The zombie's claws brushed past the place where she was originally standing and missed.
“Teleport!”
Gu Chen looked at Wu Qiyu in surprise. He didn't expect that Wu Qiyu would awaken her special abilities at such a critical moment of life and death.
Wu Qiyu herself was stunned. She looked at the place where she had just stood, and then looked at her current position, unable to believe it.
Her heartbeat slowly calmed down, but the fear just now was still vivid in her mind.
Wu Qiyu became excited, she also had superpowers.
"Roar……"
Another zombie pounced towards Wu Qiyu. This time Wu Qiyu was confident. She tried to teleport again, but found that she could not use this ability continuously.
Wu Qiyu felt weak, as if her body had been hollowed out.
“What…what’s going on?”
"puff!"
The Tang sword in Gu Chen's hand arrived just in time, otherwise Wu Qiyu would have definitely been caught by the zombies.
Wu Qiyu was a little depressed. Was her ability so useless?
"It's okay, at least you have awakened your superpowers. Although there are limitations, it's better than nothing. Let's leave here first and go back to study this ability."
Gu Chen sighed in his heart, but still spoke out to comfort Wu Qiyu. Although the ability of teleportation seemed useless, in the end times, any ability could become the key to survival.
They decided to study this ability carefully when they returned to see if they could find a way to improve it or overcome its limitations.
"Xiao Xi, come quickly, here are some seeds."
A female voice was heard, and Gu Chen was stunned. He had heard this voice countless times in the Zhang family before.
"Xiaochen, come and have some chicken..."
"Xiaochen, this watermelon is so sweet, come and have a taste."
……
Zhang Haijun and his family appeared in front of Gu Chen. They were still the same as before the apocalypse. Gu Chen even felt that Nan Xi and Aunt Li were more dazzling than before.
Zhang Haijun was also quite surprised to see Gu Tianming and the other two.
"You are here too."
Gu Tianming's eyes lit up, thinking that Lao Zhang had come at the right time.
"Lao Zhang, let's go together. The zombies are getting more and more powerful recently. It's safer to go together."
Zhang Haijun curled his lips and said, "You guys are safer, right?"
No matter how Zhang Haijun refused, Gu Tianming was determined to stick with him. Even if Zhang Haijun spoke harshly, he would still follow the Zhang family.
Zhang Haijun shook his head. This old Gu was becoming more and more shameless.
Nan Xi left the commercial building and prepared to go to an abandoned scientific research center nearby. Her mission this time was to search for useful machinery and equipment and bring them back to the base intact.
"You want to follow us to the research center? There are no supplies there, only machines."
Gu Tianming gritted his teeth and said, "We want to follow. We can also help."
Nan Xi didn't care. "You can follow me if you want. You are responsible for your own safety. I can't guarantee that there are no high-level zombies in the research center."
Gu Tianming was a little hesitant, but he could only be safe if he followed the Zhang family. If danger came, would the Zhang family not help?
Gu Tianming was calculating on his abacus as he followed Nan Xi to the research center.
Nan Xi looked at the abandoned scientific research center in the distance. There might be machinery and equipment vital to their survival hidden there, but there might also be unknown dangers lurking there.
"Are you ready?"
Nan Xi turned around and said to Zhang Haijun and Li Huizhen, "Mom and Dad, leave the mission to me. Safety comes first."
Zhang Haijun and Li Huizhen nodded. They just needed to protect themselves, and as long as they didn't hold their daughter back, they would be helping.
Gu Chen and Wu Qiyu exchanged glances. It seemed that this mission was a bit dangerous. Was it really okay for them to follow?
A group of people walked along the deserted streets towards the research center. Their footsteps echoed in the ruins and were particularly clear.
Nan Xi looked around vigilantly, listening carefully to any unusual sounds.
The building's exterior was covered with vines, some of the windows were broken, and the wind whistled through the gaps, making a low whimpering sound.
"Everyone be careful, we don't know what's inside."
Nan Xi reminded softly, then took the lead and pushed open the half-open door.
The interior of the research center was dark and silent, with only the occasional sound of dripping water.
They turned on their flashlights, and the beams swept through the empty corridors and laboratories, illuminating some scattered documents and equipment.
Soon, Nan Xi discovered a 3D printer that looked intact. Such equipment could be used to manufacture various parts and tools in the doomsday and was very valuable.
Nan Xi put them directly into the space. She collected them as she walked, and found some electronic components and small robotic arms in another laboratory, and put them into the space.
Gu Chen and the other two widened their eyes behind them. Zhang Nanxi actually had spatial abilities. She was a dual-system ability user.
Gu Chen remained silent, but his heart was filled with sourness and he felt very uncomfortable.
