End of Century

The St. Church's restaurant is in the same area, but there are also high and low points.

As VIPs, Hou Ying and others naturally ate at the most upscale restaurant, and the five base managers including the priest had also arrived.

They each brought an assistant, and Lilian also stood behind the priest.The priest politely introduced them to the other four administrators and their assistants. Three of them were in charge of going out of the city to hunt for energy crystal cores and leading the team of supernatural beings. Not so harmonious.The remaining one is in charge of the research of supernatural weapons at the holy church base, including the maintenance of the protective layer.

The priest in charge of logistics seems to be the lowest among them, but the weight of his words is not light, which is inseparable from his supernatural ability.

At this time, he was sitting on the main seat, with the person in charge of the base on his right and the members of Li Hou's team on his left.

The main meal is steak, and there are people in the Holy Church base who raise steak carefully, but not many people can afford it, which is equivalent to special food.

It should be because the priest had done communication work beforehand. They didn't have much opinion on the ability and number of Li Hou's team. They asked about the current situation of some survivors who passed by at the dinner table. Hou Ying naturally reported good news but not bad news. People couldn't help making eye contact.What they are proud of is the protective technology, but they did not expect that in the Huaguo base without protective film protection, the situation of the survivors is much better than they imagined.

The priest affirmed Hou Ying's statement, and he said with emotion: "I took the team to visit the four major survivor bases in Huaguo. Although their protection technology is relatively backward, the abilities of the supernatural beings are very outstanding. The sea-dwelling zombie creatures... oh, I showed you the photos before, it was too scary, but the survivors of the base still fought bravely and successfully defended their homeland."

As he spoke, he added: "It is our honor to be able to invite the most outstanding compatriots of Li Hou's team to help us tide over the difficulties this time. I am really grateful."

Hou Ying smiled politely. He ate a piece of delicious steak and said, "You're welcome. We also have reasons for coming here. To be honest, I'm more interested in the talking zombie leader outside than at the base of the Holy Church." Interested. If possible, I also hope that you can tell us all the information you know about this zombie, so that we can face it with greater confidence."

The leader of the zombies was obviously a wrong topic, and the smiles on the faces of the managers faded, and they were all a little worried.

One of the team leaders named Lite said: "The zombie appeared suddenly. Just three months ago, there were still a few days before the sudden change in the rainstorm. The zombie suddenly appeared here to try Destroy the protective circle." Lite lost his appetite for delicious food, put down his knife and fork, and said, "We were defenseless at the time, but fortunately, the protective film was strong enough to buy us time. We sent ten teams to attack Kill this zombie, but they... all died."

"Three days later, the zombie disappeared for no reason. We were relieved at first, but we didn't expect the weather to change again soon, and zombies came from all directions. We didn't fight, so we wanted to wait The zombie wave was like the previous few times, lingering outside for a few days and then leaving. Unexpectedly, that zombie appeared again!"

Leeteuk's obvious frustration.

Jack, the team leader of another supernatural being beside him, patted him on the shoulder, took his words and said: "At that time, in order to stop the tide of zombies, the investment in energy crystal cores was very large. We had no choice but to lead the team out of the city to hunt for crystal cores. But those zombies are more powerful than the last wave of zombies. The team led by Lite lost two-thirds of the people, and we didn't gain much. Reserve crystal nuclei. Who would have thought that the zombie refused to leave and stayed outside the city with the zombies. If the breeding and plant bases in our city were not able to supply the survivors with food, we might have been hungry for the past three months died."

Hou Ying keenly heard the crux of the problem: "So, you invited us just because the reserve of crystal nuclei is about to collapse?"

The priest didn't expect Hou Ying to be able to see the problem at a glance at a young age, so he didn't hide it.He said: "If the leader zombie can be killed, it would be great to expel the zombie tide. If not, we really need a large reserve of crystal nuclei."

He talked about the embarrassment of the base. They could hardly go out of the city to hunt for crystals in three months, and no matter how much reserves they had, they would run out.Now they are cutting down on food and clothing, trying to save the use of crystal nuclei of other supernatural weapons as much as possible, and put all the crystal nuclei that can be used into the use of the protective layer, but this cannot solve the fundamental problem.

It was also for this reason that the priest took the risk of taking people out for help.

The first stop he went to was not Huaguo, but its neighbor Xingxingguo. Unexpectedly, the situation of the other party was worse than theirs. assistance.

The priest originally planned to buy the crystal nucleus directly, but found that carrying the crystal nucleus could not cross the ocean at all.It unleashes a riot of zombie creatures, attacks that not even his powers can block.That's why they made the decision to ask for reinforcements and send experts over to deal with the zombie leader together.Fortunately, they were lucky to have the help of the first team of Huaguo survivors.

After witnessing the vice-captain Li Xuanyuan hunt and kill the nine-level zombie whale, he was full of confidence in it.

Hou Ying discovered another crucial problem.

He said with discretion: "After you used the energy in the crystal nucleus, the crystal nucleus turned into powder, or?"

They visited the core base station of the protective layer today, but they only saw the operation of the machine and the use of the crystal core, but they did not see what the crystal core looked like after it was used.

The answer was Riga, the person in charge of the research who had been silent all this time. He said: "The original appearance of the crystal nucleus is still maintained. According to my calculation of the energy of the crystal nucleus, the utilization rate of the protective layer for the crystal nucleus is only 70.00%. The result after several times of melting. The remaining 30.00% of energy, we have thought about using it for people with supernatural abilities to absorb it to improve their abilities. However, this part of the residual energy may carry impurities or because there are virus residues. After absorbing The ability users frequently have accidents when the ability breaks through, and after several life accidents and the situation where the ability can no longer be improved, we stopped this plan."

After a pause, Riga said: "I am now working on research on this problem, developing a more advanced energy converter, and recycling the energy that this part of the crystal nucleus participates in."

Hou Ying raised her eyebrows, "It seems that the number of crystal nuclei in this part is not small. You should keep them properly and isolate them with iron metal, otherwise there will be big troubles."

Riga said: "Thank you, we have sealed the storage. Therefore, the reason for the unabated tide of zombies should not be on these crystal nuclei."

Hou Ying nodded to express her understanding.

Then he asked a lot of questions about the zombie leader and the rules of its actions.This zombie has been demonized, and the people in charge are very afraid of it. They didn't feel relieved until they heard Hou Ying's promise that he would do his best to strangle that zombie.

After dinner, Hou Ying proposed to take the team back to the team train to rest on the grounds of acclimatization, so as to ensure that tomorrow they can go out of the city with a good mental outlook to meet the enemy.

Speaking of this, the person in charge did not dare to force it.

Back in the train, they talked and let go.

Dongfang Bai said: "I found out that the old man just wanted us to do all kinds of work for him. This is too outrageous. It's a deal for them to exchange technology for us to kill that zombie. How dare you say that? Let us help hunt crystal nuclei for them to use, without mentioning revenge at all. With such a face, it is not a kind person at first glance."

He had observed those people during the meal, and these people were more confident than themselves in being able to solve these troubles for them, and he would throw praise at them without any money.But it was too attentive, which made him feel weird.

Dongfang Bai's intuition has always been good, but neither Hou Ying nor Wang Hehe foresees any dangerous scenes, so Dongfang Bai understands that even if these people have evil ideas, they can get through it without any effort.

As soon as Li Xuanyuan came back, he and Jiang Tao compiled the copied materials together.

The supernatural beings at the Holy Church base looked fragile, but they used supernatural weapons to save their lives, and the results were more effective than the Huaguo base, which was heavier on the supernatural beings themselves.These copied first-hand materials are enough for Li Xuanyuan and Jiang Tao to study for a long time. After returning, they will definitely be able to improve the security index of the survivor base by a level in the original places.

Liu Zhanze also analyzed with Hou Ying some of his views on the person in charge of the Holy Church. Compared with Dongfang Bai, Liu Zhan, who was originally more defensive towards others and used to seeing people with evil, was more impolite in his evaluation of those in charge. up.

"Although they said that tomorrow, Lite and Jack will personally lead the team and take us out of the city to test the ability of zombies not far outside the city, but I always feel that this matter will not be so simple. Monkey brother, do you think Listening to their tone, although they hate that zombie and are very jealous, they don't doubt our ability at all. This means that either they have already figured out the ability of that zombie, and they have a certain way to subdue it. But you have to pay a relatively high price. Or, they must be hiding something—”

"Shh."

Hou Ying pressed her finger to her lips, telling Liu Zhan and the others to calm down first.He tapped his temple and said with a smile: "The prayer time for the priests has begun. Listen to how they thank us heroes in private."

In the church at the base of the Holy Church, which is far away from the team's train stop, an unfamiliar voice rang in Hou Ying's ear.

That was the least talkative of the three team leaders with supernatural powers, and Team Leader Locke was not within the scope of tomorrow's team leader.

His mood was agitated, and he said urgently: "Riga, do we really want to do this?"
