“…” Fu Ke blinked her eyes. What the hell was this, a fire-burning woman?
Only Lin Jing smiled for a while and asked curiously, “Did Fu Ke eat before?”
They were busy before, and they also helped. But no one paid much attention to what Fu Ke was doing, just knowing that she was always busy. Lin Jing couldn’t think of when Fu Ke ate.
“I ate.” Fu Ke said with a smile, by now she had realized it. Brother Long was helping her out, and she suddenly felt guilty. She obviously didn’t eat anything, but Brother Long said she ate…
Could it be that Brother Long had guessed her identity? Fu Ke was suddenly a little horrified. In her last life, she had obvious zombie features. But in this life, she obviously didn’t have zombie features.
Although her pupils turned red when she advanced last time, the color of her pupils couldn’t be seen at all after she wore beauty contact lenses.
“I saw her eat.” Qin Long picked up the chopsticks and picked up the abalone and put it in his mouth.
The taste was crispy, fresh and salty, and it was very delicious. Although red peppers were added, it was not spicy at all, and it didn’t feel fishy since it was handled properly.
He felt strange before, every time he let Fu Ke eat. If she didn’t say she wasn’t hungry, then she had already eaten. He had some subtle guesses in his mind.
But he didn’t think about zombies. After all, there hadn’t been any zombies with consciousness and the ability to speak and communicate yet.
At this time, Zhang Zhongmin and Lu Xun also came over.
When Lu Xun saw the things on the table, his eyes widened.
Abalone, stir-fried squid, garlic shrimp, steamed hairy crab, spicy bamboo clams, garlic vermicelli scallops…
He couldn’t help swallowing his saliva. His favorite thing was to eat seafood. He couldn’t help but look at Fu Ke with resentment: “Fu Ke… didn’t we promise to try the dishes later?”
Fu Ke had never cooked seafood before, so this was naturally the first time.
“…” Fu Ke was speechless. Since Brother Long came, she seemed to have forgotten about Lu Xun… Oh, no, except for asking Lu Xun to teach Brother Long to absorb the energy in the crystal core.
“I made a lot, how about you eat together?” Fu Ke asked tentatively.
“Okay.” Lu Xun nodded seriously and sat down on the seat that Lin Jing had prepared for Fu Ke.
Zhang Zhongmin’s face darkened and he spit on Lu Xun in his heart. What a loser.
“Team Leader Zhang, come over here too. There’s still egg custard in the pot. It’s definitely enough for you.” Fu Ke looked at Zhang Zhongmin who was standing at the door. Zhang Zhongmin, who had just spit on Lu Xun in his heart, subconsciously walked over and pulled a chair to sit down.
Suddenly, the table was completely filled, and Fu Ke took out bowls and chopsticks for them.
The steamed egg with clams in the pot was also ready, and she brought it out wrapped in a handkerchief. A bowl of steamed egg with clams. If Fu Ke felt that it was not enough, she could just cook noodles.
Anyway, there should be some honey sauce left from making abalone before, so she could just pour the abalone sauce on the noodles.
Lu Xun first extended his evil hand to the hairy crab and broke off its legs: “Luckily I caught up today.”
Hearing Lu Xun’s sigh, Fu Ke said coldly: “They all gave crystal cores.”
“Ahem… cough… cough…” Lu Xun almost choked on his own saliva, and his cheeks flushed immediately. He looked at the four people on both sides. It was not good to eat awkwardly, nor was it good not to eat.
“I will eat here in the future, and I will make up the crystal cores for you later.” Zhang Zhongmin didn’t carry so many crystal cores.
As he said, Zhang Zhongmin looked at Qin Long: “He also gave crystal cores?”
It’s not that Zhang Zhongmin wanted to target Qin Long, but he had seen Fu Ke diligently giving Qin Long food several times. At that time, Qin Long hadn’t gone out on a mission yet. If you say that Qin Long gave crystal cores at that time, Zhang Zhongmin didn’t believe a word. He didn’t give it at that time, but now he had gone out on a mission, so he should have given it, right?
Qin Long looked at Zhang Zhongmin and felt that Zhang Zhongmin’s eyes were strange: “I gave it.”
For some reason, even after considering that Qin Long had given the crystal cores, Zhang Zhongmin was still a little upset. Jian Yiluan, who sensed that the atmosphere was not right, ate silently. If Zhang Zhongmin also ate here in the future, would he suffer from indigestion every day?
But indigestion is not bad, at least he won’t feel hungry…
“Team Leader Zhang, you eat here, aren’t you afraid that others will think you are cooking for yourself?” Fu Ke said with a smile.
After all, everyone in the base needed to hand in food and crystal cores.
“I also have a mission to go out.” Zhang Zhongmin said coldly, with a bad tone.
The crystal cores and food handed in by the people in the base were all recorded. Zhang Zhongmin said that when he ate here, the crystal cores he used were of course his own.
But when it came to the crystal cores, Zhang Zhongmin finally remembered the main purpose of his visit to Fu Ke.
“I plan to give the people in the base a hot meal at the end of every month. You name a price.”
Fu Ke curled her lips and said, “What price? You are looking for survivors everywhere now, and there will be more and more people here in the future. If the price is high now, you will not be willing to pay, and if it is low, it will not be cost-effective for me.”
There were already second-level zombies outside, but the people in the base don’t know if they were lucky or not, but they had never encountered second-level zombies.
She was almost tired of eating the crystal cores of first-level zombies. When she thought of the second-level crystal cores, Fu Ke couldn’t help swallowing.
“…” Zhang Zhongmin’s mouth twitched slightly, but he thought that the number of people in the base was indeed increasing. One thousand crystal cores should definitely not be enough: “Then let’s talk about how many crystal cores we will have at the end of next month.”
At the end of next month, according to the current growth, the number of people was likely to reach six or seven thousand, but it may not reach this number.
Fu Ke touched her chin and thought for a while: “Three thousand first-order crystal cores and ten second-order crystal cores.”
“Okay, then three thousand…” Zhang Zhongmin nodded and said, suddenly feeling something was wrong. He stared at Fu Ke: “What first-order and what second-order?”
The group of people who pricked up their ears to listen to Zhang Zhongmin and Fu Ke’s conversation raised their heads one after another, their expressions becoming a little serious.
Only Lu Xun looked a little weird, as if he was a little dazed.
Qin Long frowned: “You mean, zombies will also advance?”
“Those who have read doomsday novels should know, right?” Fu Ke took out a piece of white crystal core: “This is the crystal core of an early zombie, that is, a first-order crystal core. Now there are zombies that have evolved into second-order zombies in D City. But you are lucky, it seems that you haven’t encountered them.”
Zhang Zhongmin’s hand holding the chopsticks suddenly tightened: “Second-order zombie…”
Fu Ke looked at his ugly face and shrugged his shoulders. She hadn’t even said that the one who was guarding the villa well in the villa was almost at the third level.
Zombies from level one to level four were relatively easy to deal with, because at least they didn’t have superpowers.
But once they reached level five, the zombies regained some consciousness and also had superpowers. Zombies were extremely powerful once they gained superpowers, which was different from humans who advanced step by step.
When zombies reached level five, they regained consciousness and awakened superpowers, which were level five superpowers.
“The speed of level two zombies is evolved, and they are much more agile and faster than level one zombies. Other things are not much different from level one zombies.” The biggest change of level two zombies was speed.
Zhang Zhongmin felt very upset when he suddenly got this news. No matter how delicious the food was, he lost his appetite.
He felt a little bitter while eating.
Fu Ke felt that everyone was upset, so she stopped talking about the zombies. She didn’t know what these people would do to her if they knew that she was also a zombie.
She didn’t care about other people, but Fu Ke had to care about Brother Long’s opinion.
She knew that Brother Long in this life was different from the previous life, so she didn’t dare to be honest.
“I’ll go cook noodles for you.” Fu Ke said and walked in.
Jian Yiluan looked at Zhang Zhongmin: “Team Leader Zhang, if there are second-level zombies, then they will definitely evolve to the third and fourth levels in the future…” As he said that, Jian Yiluan suddenly felt that there was no light.
The evolution of zombies must make them harder and harder to deal with. Will they really be able to resist it by then?
As for superpowers, sorry, there were still some superpower users in the school. But Jian Yiluan really didn’t see how powerful the superpowers were. Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but look at Lu Xun.
Lu Xun had supernatural powers, and everyone in the school was very envious at first. But later, they gradually discovered that even if he had supernatural powers, it didn’t seem to make much difference.
It wasn’t as exaggerated as in the novels, and people even vaguely felt that it was useless.
The pots and plates sent to the school had not been delivered yet, and Zhang Zhongmin and his friends had almost finished eating. They had swept away the food on the table and the noodles.
But Fu Ke found it strange that Lu Xun still had a big appetite. But this time, although he ate the noodles, he didn’t touch the dishes on the table just now and seemed a little absent-minded.
After they all left, Fu Ke cleaned up and washed the things.
But not long after the group of people left, Lu Xun, who had just left, turned back. Fu Ke raised her eyebrows and looked back, and sure enough, Lu Xun was standing at the door.
“Is there something wrong?” She had noticed that Lu Xun seemed to be a little abnormal before, but Fu Ke didn’t know why. She didn’t want to be his close sister.
But Lu Xun came over, obviously wanting to talk to her.
The first thing Lu Xun did when he got back was to take out all the crystal cores from the locked cabinet in his dormitory.
He put the crystal cores on the table, his eyes slightly reddened: “Fu Ke, I’m sorry.”
This sorry made Fu Ke unable to react for a long time, a little dazed: “What’s wrong with you?”
Lu Xun was relieved when he saw Fu Ke’s dazed look. At least what she said today was not directed at him. But he still felt a little uncomfortable. He had unconsciously taken it for granted that Fu Ke cooked for him.
He would send crystal cores before, but after sending them twice. He seemed to have forgotten and never sent crystal cores again.
Because he needed crystal cores to improve his superpowers, he chose to forget. And Fu Ke did not remind him.
His life was saved by Fu Ke.
Lu Xun’s eyes were a little sore. Even if Fu Ke didn’t understand why he apologized, he understood. He almost became the ungrateful person he hated the most.
“This is for you.” Lu Xun gave the crystal cores to Fu Ke firmly.
“Keep it for yourself. You still need these crystal cores now.” Brother Long said that humans will have side effects if they use too many crystal cores, but Fu Ke was not sure if it was true.
“When I go out on missions, I kill zombies and dig crystal cores. This is for you.” Lu Xun gritted his teeth: “Thank you for cooking for me for so long.”
Thank you for saving me back then.
Lu Xun did not say the latter part of the sentence. His life could not be offset by even hundreds or thousands of crystal cores.
“Is that so…” Fu Ke looked at him hesitantly, as if to see if he was serious: “Okay, this is your food allowance. In the future, you can eat here like Brother Long and the others.”
After that, she smiled brightly.
“No, that’s not what I meant.” Lu Xun was stunned. He was clearly giving this to Fu Ke as a gift.
