Liang Jiuhui’s office was filled with a sense of marvel as he watched a man and a woman walk in, their eyes brimming with awe.

Before the apocalypse, she used to be an agent at a modeling company, and the two people who walked in would have turned heads even before the apocalypse, with their figures and temperament, let alone in these times that could age people more than the years themselves.

Su Jin also saw the woman beside Liang Jiuhui, she was still wearing a thin veil, revealing only her eyes and half of her nose bridge, but judging by her figure and those eyes alone, she was undoubtedly a beauty.

She remembered what Mrs. Su had mentioned during a casual chat in the space—that among the four people they had rescued, one woman had her face scratched, which is why she always wore a veil.

Could it be the woman in front of her?

In the apocalypse, it was hard for women, and even harder for beauties. If this was indeed the woman Mrs. Su had talked about, then she truly felt some sympathy for her.

...

“You’re here, today we really have to trouble you,”

Liang Jiuhui said somewhat apologetically. He had already heard from Liang Jiuqing that this family had been out clearing zombies until the afternoon and had been invited over by him as soon as they returned.

Then Liang Jiuhui mentioned the matter about Sheng Jing to the two people. The reason he valued Sheng Jing’s reaction so much was because it reminded him of the previous Invisibility Ability User. Since there were abilities like invisibility in this post-apocalyptic world, could there possibly be other special abilities?

If it really was a special ability that could be utilized, that would be truly great.

“Her reaction, it’s a special ability, probably from the Mental Element,”

Su Jin said with a smile, feeling happy for the woman as well. Awakened in the Mental Element, if she upgraded herself well in the future, self-protection would certainly not be a problem.

“Hello, my name is Sheng Jing, are you saying that my condition is an awakening of a special ability?” Sheng Jing asked excitedly.

Su Jin nodded, but it sounded like her Mental Element Ability was somewhat different from Qiqi’s?

“Before we came in, were you able to feel it too?” Su Jin asked.

“Yes, before the door opened, I realized I already knew the number of people coming in, and now, the people walking outside, I can feel them too,” Sheng Jing answered.

That was undoubtedly a Mental Element ability, but perhaps Mental Element abilities manifested differently in each individual, with Qiqi’s being in the form of a mini-map.

“How do you know about this kind of special ability?”

Liang Jiuhui couldn’t help asking, after all, he had never heard or seen such a special ability.

With a smile, Su Jin said: “My cousin is a Mental Element Ability User,”

Seeing the eyes of the two people across from her light up, Su Jin no longer concealed it and explained the precautions of the Mental Element Ability to Sheng Jing. She genuinely hoped that Sheng Jing would improve her ability, as it might play a significant role in the base in the future.

After personally sending the two people away, Liang Jiuhui finally felt relieved. He had never imagined that such abilities could exist in the apocalypse, almost like cheating devices.

Sheng Jing was also very grateful to the two people from before, otherwise, she would have really suspected her experience to be an illusion caused by a mental disorder.

As Su Jin walked home with Lu Hao, she couldn’t help but laugh.

It seemed bringing Lu Hao was the right choice, the guy had just swindled Liang Jiuhui out of 200 Crystal Cores, claiming it was for intelligence fees. Liang Jiuhui hadn’t expected Lu Hao to bring this up, but he wasn’t angry; instead, he smiled and took out 200 Crystal Cores, placing them in Lu Hao’s hand stretched out before him.

Then he and Sheng Jing watched, wide-eyed, as Lu Hao transferred the small bag of Crystal Cores into Su Jin’s hands, like a loyal golden retriever that had bought back something nice and was now presenting it to its owner…

Although Su Jin felt awkward, she nevertheless accepted them graciously and jokingly said to Liang Jiuhui, “Welcome to come again next time.”

Xu Shi, who was waiting outside, noticed the familiar bag of Crystal Cores in Su Jin’s hands and couldn’t help but feel some sympathy for Liang Jiuhui; he must not know yet that he had been made a fool of…

However, on their way back, Su Jin and Lu Hao encountered three people they hadn’t expected.

It was those three people who they both beat up that day!

They were just too recognizable, with the glasses, the blond hair, the long knife…

“You, you, you guys! How come you’re here!”

Ye Shuai couldn’t help but take two steps back. He had been treated so badly by that Wood Element woman last time, even being trapped in a barrel.

“We live here.”

Su Jin replied with a smile, noticing the pile of food they were carrying, which seemed like it was bought from the Heart Talk Convenience Store.

Lu Hao couldn’t help but protect Su Jin behind him, glaring at Han Xiao with unfriendly eyes. If he dared to be impertinent again, Lu Hao wouldn’t mind fighting in the streets of the base.

Han Xiao felt pain in his right cheek as he looked at the two people before him. He knew that these two were in the base, but he hadn’t expected to run into them so soon.

“Haven’t seen you for a few days, big brother has become a lot more handsome, ha. We need to get home, so we won’t delay the two of you any longer,”

Han Xiao said with a smile on his face as he continued to walk forward, as if he just casually bumped into acquaintances on the road.

“…”

Only when they got some distance from the two people behind did the three of them breathe a sigh of relief.

“Ah Xiao, are you walking with the same hand and foot?” Ouyang Feizhou asked Han Xiao.

“No, I’ve always walked like this.”

Han Xiao replied, hugging the bag of food he was holding in his right hand.

Su Jin shook her head with a smile and continued walking back with Lu Hao. When they got home, they found that Guo Yang had already returned.

“You guys have no idea. Today three young people came to the store, and they stayed there for a whole day, spending 300 crystal cores before they left,”

Guo Yang excitedly shared his earnings of the day with everyone. Although the three were talkative, he felt the day went by quickly thanks to them.

They not only ate breakfast, lunch, and dinner in his store but also bought a bunch of food and necessities before they were willing to leave.

“Is it one with blond hair, one with glasses, and one with a long knife?” Lu Hao asked.

“Yes, yes, yes, how did you know?” Guo Yang asked suspiciously.

Hearing what Lu Hao said, everyone in the room began to think. With these three characteristics, could it be those three troublemakers from the day of the Survivor transfer?

Liao Yifan recounted the events of that day to Guo Yang, helping him realize that if it was those three people, it indeed was possible.

Today in his store, there were also others sitting at the tables inside, resting or eating. The three people were bragging about their Level Three Special Abilities through their conversations. Although they garnered quite a few envious glances in the store, Guo Yang didn’t care much. Level Three Special Ability, that’s all. Wasn’t there someone even higher level in his team?

“But he’s clearly Level Three Water Element. Why do I feel like he’s just so weak?”

Lin Xiuyuan also chimed in, saying that the guy last time was defeated after just a few moves against his brother-in-law and couldn’t get up.

“He must have absorbed a large number of crystal cores and forcibly raised his level,”

Su Jin said with a smile. Such people usually have the Special Ability Level but are actually just for show.

That’s why she only let her family and teammates absorb crystal cores of the same element. As for the Ordinary Crystal Cores, it was better to absorb them less unless absolutely necessary. She wanted everyone to advance steadily. That way, when their Special Abilities rose to a high level in the future, it would be easier to dominate other Special Ability Users of the same level.
