Capítulo 53: 051 Yongcheng
Before picking up the mission, Fang Yuxin had registered the mercenary team. The team was named "Yongcheng", meaning "eternal brightness", not domineering, but it expressed the Fang Family's hope for the future. The team had only five members, among whom two were superpower users, and the remaining three were "Ordinary People". Among the "Ordinary People", there was even a child as young as five years old.
The registration officer frowned after reviewing the information but didn't say much, simply stating, "There are many zombies outside now, it's best not to take the children out." After this brief advice, she asked Fang Yuxin which mission she planned to accept.
Fang Yuxin reported the mission number, and the officer frowned again. However, this time she did not give any more advice but quickly completed the registration, after which those who had taken on the mission would gain 10 Contribution Value points. These 10 Contribution Value points were the reward for all the survivors who accepted the mission.
The officer didn't expect Fang Yuxin to plan to undertake the mission with Bai Qianqian; she confirmed it once more with her, and after receiving a positive response, she looked at Fang Yuxin as if her eyes were thorns, silently accusing Fang Yuxin of being too ruthless.
Fang Yuxin didn't explain. After taking the mission, the family left the Task Hall. They drove out in just one SUV, and after boarding, the family took off their coats, revealing their tight protective clothing underneath. After equipping their weapons, the family continued on the road.
Their destination this time was not the urban district but a small industrial zone. The area was almost entirely made up of food processing factories. Yesterday, Fang Jintang and Qu Qianhe had already checked it out, saying that the place was severely damaged, virtually a disaster area hit by meteorite attacks, almost completely turned into ruins.
Such a place was of no interest to the military and most survivors. In Fang Yuxin's dream, this place was initially unheeded until the role of Elemental Crystals was discovered, then both the military and survivors began to pay attention to these ruins.
For the Fang Family, this was an excellent opportunity. However, they had to avoid others and sneak into that place. Otherwise, once the role of Elemental Crystals became known later, their unusual movement would surely arouse suspicion.
After driving out, the family deliberately took a detour, avoiding everyone and heading towards the food processing zone. Occasionally, zombies appeared on the road, which were easily taken care of by Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang. After killing the zombies, the siblings not only extracted their Crystal Cores but also chopped off the zombies' hands, storing them in sealed bags to submit later.
The small food processing district was also in the suburbs, about a twenty-minute drive from the safe zone. The family took detours and killed zombies along the way, taking almost forty minutes to reach the destination. When Fang Jintang and Qu Qianhe came yesterday, they sensed quite a few zombies inside, and since they brought Bai Qianqian, they were somewhat worried. They only looked around the perimeter and didn't dare to go deeper, but this time both Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang were here, so the siblings intended to go in and check.
As they had guessed, apart from them, no other survivors had come here. After confirming that no one else was around, Fang Yuxin put away the car, planning to walk in.
Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang walked in front, Bai Qianqian and Qu Qianhe walked in the middle, and Fang Jintang brought up the rear. Everyone drew their weapons; Fang Yuxin, Fang Yuyang, and Qu Qianhe wielded Miao Sabers, Bai Qianqian held a Military Dagger in each hand, while Fang Jintang used a Horse-Cutting Sword, which looked very domineering.
Since the buildings were severely damaged, the family was unsure whether there were still survivors inside, but they could all sense that there were indeed zombies inside, and quite a few of them.
Bai Qianqian was a Spiritual Superpower User, his perception the most acute; next was Fang Yuxin, as she no longer possessed merely superpowers but had embarked on the path of Cultivation. Her Soul Power was stronger than that of ordinary superpower users, except for other Spiritual Superpower Users.
This industrial zone not only had various food processing plants but also employees' residential areas, a commercial district, and there were even residential neighborhoods around; it can be said that many people lived here.
Only now, this place had almost entirely turned into ruins, with large stretches of buildings collapsed, a scene that was truly shocking to behold.
Fang Yuxin had just entered the Qi Refining Early Stage and even if she released her Spiritual Sense, she could only sense up to a distance of five hundred meters around her. Bai Qianqian, after trying to release her spiritual power, could sense a somewhat farther distance of six hundred meters. Fang Yuxin let out Angela, stroked its sleek long fur, and then placed it on the ground.
Angela shook the fur on its body and then let out a "meow." The next moment, a strong energy fluctuation suddenly surged on its body, and its soft sleek long fur suddenly turned into stiff steel needles. The paws that were originally hidden in its pads also extended and gradually grew longer until they reached an inch before stopping.
Angela was originally very smart. After the mutation, its intelligence had notably improved, capable of understanding simple meanings. After Fang Yuxin used the method of establishing a Spiritual Pet Contract from her inheritance to keep it as a spiritual pet, the communication between master and servant became unobstructed.
Originally, she had not planned to let Angela out, worrying that it might be too dangerous and could injure her, but Angela had unexpectedly been calling her continuously through the Spiritual Pet Contract, wanting to come out. After recalling the mutant beasts she had seen in her dreams, she agreed.
The present Angela was still very far from those imposing mutant beasts she had in mind, but it needed growth. Since it had mutated already, always keeping it confined in the Qingmu Spirit Mansion would instead spoil it.
After releasing Angela, its transformation had finally allowed Fang Yuxin to feel somewhat relieved. However, she still cautioned through the Spiritual Pet Contract, "Angela, you'd better stay in a safe place later and be careful!"
Angela responded with a soft meow, "Meow~~~ Got it~~~ Master~~~"
Others who saw her releasing Angela were somewhat worried. Qu Qianhe couldn't help saying, "Xinxin, isn't it too dangerous to let Angela out?"
Perhaps not wanting to worry her while also wanting to prove itself, Angela softly meowed, then nimbly climbed up a nearby collapsed dangerous building. Its sharp claws grasped the wall, walking as if it were strolling in a leisurely courtyard, effortlessly making its way up.
The Fang Family then breathed a sigh of relief before Fang Yuxin said, "Let's stop here for now. Qianqian, try to release your spiritual power now and find the Elemental Stones around us."
The last time she and Fang Yuyang had gone out, she had not been able to wield her Spiritual Sense freely, yet after that training session cutting Elemental Stones, she had significantly improved her control over her Spiritual Sense, able to release it to sense the surroundings.
The aura of living beings was easier to detect, but Elemental Stones had no energy fluctuations, which made pinpointing their exact locations a considerable challenge for them. Bai Qianqian, however, did not refuse but obediently responded, and then clenched her small fists, determined to make Mama proud this time!
She tried to release her spiritual power and then slowly extended it outward.
