Chương 29: You Are So Lucky

Just as Xiu Wu was considering whether to register and have a brain examination in the base later or not, the other three people looked at him and had different thoughts in their hearts.

Zhu Lin : 'Can I really call someone who is twenty three thousand years younger than me as an elder brother?'

Ji Yang : '.... I never knew Lao Xiu was so shameless.'

Tan Wei : '... I never knew that Lao Xiu had this ability.'

After a long awkward silence, the shameless Xiu Wu coughed lightly and calmly said, "Let's pack up our things and leave early."

Tan Wei and Ji Yang took another look at him, then packed their sleeping bags and put out the fire. With Ji Yang as their portable warehouse, it only takes a few minutes for them to pack up and leave.

Now that Zhu Lin agreed to join their team for the time being, there was no need for them to deliberately keep a distance from her. As they walked, Tan Wei's gaze stayed on the sleeping Tu Tu in Zhu Lin's arms.

Because his gaze was too intense, Zhu Lin asked, "Do you want to hug Tu Tu?"

Hearing her question, Tan Wei's eyes lit up, and he nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Yes, yes. Can I really hug your rabbit? So your rabbit's name is Tu Tu. Even the name is so cute." He said with twinkling eyes.

Looking at his shining eyes, Zhu Lin knew that he liked Tu Tu very much. She nodded and said, "Thank you. Come on, try holding it like this."

Zhu Lin taught him how to hold the rabbit for a while, and then let Tan Wei hug Tu Tu. Seeing that Tu Tu was still sleeping like a log, Tan Wei gently stroked the fur on its body.

Touching Tu Tu's soft fur with his fingers, Tan Wei sighed contentedly, and said, "Your rabbit is so cute. I used to have a rabbit when I was young, but it died of sickness a long time ago."

Zhu Lin and Tan Wei chatted while walking, and the time passed quickly. Under the leadership of Xiu Wu, their journey went smoothly. Every time he saw a zombie, he would cut off the head of the zombie cleanly. When the sun slightly slanted westward, they finally saw S City in the distance.

Seeing more and more zombies around them as they approaching S City, Xiu Wu said, "Let's take the suburban route."

Both Tan Wei and Ji Yang agreed, and Zhu Lin also decided to follow Xiu Wu's suggestion.

Xiu Wu looked at Zhu Lin and said, "When we approach the city, there will be a lot of zombies around. There is also a possibility that mutated animals would come out to attack us. Stay close to me, and be careful."

Knowing that he meant well, Zhu Lin nodded and took a step closer to him.

Tu Tu has woken up long ago, and is currently sitting on Zhu Lin's shoulder. The rabbit looked at the thick devil energy covering the whole city in the distance and said, [Master, that place is dangerous.]

Zhu Lin nodded, took out Bing Jian from her ice flower pendant, and calmly said, [Dangerous places usually give more rewards. We should go and take a look.]

Holding Bing Jian in her hand, she walked towards the city with a little excitement inside her eyes. Along the way, Xiu Wu cleaned up all the zombies and some mutated rats, mutated cats, and mutated dogs, leaving Zhu Lin with nothing to do.

Slash! Pluk… Pluk… Pluk…

Seeing the heads of another group of zombies falling to the ground, she looked at Xiu Wu thoughtfully. Seeing him waving his hand and killing the three zombies rushing towards him with their mouths wide open, Zhu Lin was very curious about his ability, but she remained silent.

"Xiao Lin, come and help us dig out the crystal nucleus." Tan Wei said while stirring the decapitated zombie's head with a dagger.

Zhu Lin glanced at the zombie's head and calmly said, "It's empty."

After speaking, she looked around, and then picked up a broken pipe. Unlike Tan Wei and Ji Yang who checked the heads of the zombies one by one, Zhu Lin glanced at the heads of the zombies on the ground while walking. When she sensed a faint spiritual energy emitting from the zombie's head, she would dig out the crystal nucleus with the sharp side of the pipe.

When she successfully dug out the crystal nucleus five times in a row, Tan Wei said enviously: "Xiao Lin, you are so lucky. How come you can dig out the crystal nucleus every time you pick the zombie's head?"

Looking at his dirty hands, Zhu Lin said, "You can judge whether there is a crystal nucleus in the brain or not by detecting the spiritual energy. If you don't feel anything, then there is no crystal nucleus inside the brain."

Hearing what she said, not only Tan Wei and Ji Yang looked at her with great interest, but even Xiu Wu turned around and asked, "Spiritual energy? What kind of energy is that?"

Zhu Lin looked at them, saw their confusion, and asked, "You guys don't know about spiritual energy?"

After she finished asking, the three of them shook their heads at the same time. Zhu Lin thought for a while and asked, "Then how do you cultivate your abilities?"

"We continue to use it until we reach the limit and break through to the next level." Ji Yang replied calmly.

"Haven't you tried to absorb the spiritual energy contained inside the crystal nucleus?" Zhu Lin asked again.

This time, the three of them were a little surprised when they heard her question. Xiu Wu thought for a while and asked, "Can we absorb the energy inside the crystal nucleus?"

Zhu Lin nodded as answer. She thought for a moment then asked, "Has anyone else ever attempted to absorb a crystal nucleus?"
