NOVEL WEB Chapter 136: We Are Rich ( 1 )
After fighting from morning till noon, Jiao Lizhi felt as if her back and front had already become one. She was tired, hungry, and thirsty.
So, when she heard Jin Xuyan's question, she nodded and said, "Brother Yan, I'm tired. I don't want to move anymore."
Jin Xuyan smiled and turned his back to her. As he squatted in front of her, he said, "Come up, I will carry you back."
Jiao Lizhi had no concern about face or reputation. Without hesitation, she climbed onto his back and leaned her head on his shoulder.
After she lay on his back, Jin Xuyan transferred his energy to her so her tiredness would lessened.
The Phantom Team members were already used to seeing their captain spoiling his girlfriend over the past few days. So, they no longer reacted to their PDA.
Some of them carried the survivors who had fainted due to high fever, while the rest checked the road for any crystal cores left behind.
After they returned to the camp, they started cleaning up the mess.
They took showers and changed into clean clothes. While Qin Luzi, Feng Yun, Li Sikai, and Xiao Qi went to cook lunch, the rest of the soldiers washed their dirty clothes.
As for the room created by Zhang Yuan and Zhou Huajian, it was used as their temporary residence.
Inside the room, Gao Bohai was monitoring the survivors' conditions. After feeding them fever medicine and some jelly, he gave them water every fifteen minutes.
At the same time, Jiao Lizhi went to take a shower. While washing her hair, she noticed it was longer than before.
Her hair had already grown past her shoulders. It seemed like it would reach her waist in no time. Thinking about the trouble of washing it made her let out a long sigh.
It took her half an hour to wash her hair and scrub the rancid smell from her body. When she came out, she saw the woman leaning against the wall.
Seeing Jiao Lizhi come out, the woman walked over and asked, "Sister, do you have spare underwear?"
Jiao Lizhi looked at the woman's dirty clothes and said, "Wait here."
She went to her car and took out a T-shirt, pants, and a set of women's underwear from her space.
Thinking about the inconvenience of not having a bag, she checked the boxes she had collected from the clothing factory and found some bags inside. She took out a sling bag and placed the clothes inside.
Then, she added a bottle of shampoo, two bars of soap, a bottle of sanitizer, two packs of sanitary pads, and two menstrual cups.
As a woman, she knew the risk of illness was higher compared to men during certain times if hygiene wasn't properly maintained.
After adding a strip of pain relief medicine, she zipped the bag and walked back to the public bathhouse. Seeing the woman squatting there, she walked over and handed her the bag.
"After you take a shower, you can wash your clothes inside."
The woman accepted the bag and said, "Thank you, Sister."
Jiao Lizhi nodded and walked back to her car. After she stored the crystal cores they obtained into her space, she went to a shaded area.
She sat on a boulder and closed her eyes. Using her mind, she checked on the seeds she had obtained.
Since 100 square meters of black soil hadn't been used, she decided to plant all the mutated fruits, mutated plants, and mutated trees.
There were a total of 98 mutated fruit trees, 21 mutated strawberry bushes, 6 mutated nuts trees, and 3 mutated coffee plants.
When she finished planting, she opened the space settings and checked the oxygen level in her space. The grassland increased the oxygen level to 20%, and the crops added 10%. After planting the mutated fruits, trees, and plants, the oxygen level reached 60%.
She checked the new information regarding the oxygen level. With a minimum requirement of 30%, she could raise one animal per 0,5% of the oxygen level. With her current 60% oxygen level, she could raise 60 animals at the maximum.
After gaining a better understanding of her space, she couldn't help but feel grateful for obtaining it. Now, she only needed to find mutated or normal animals to raise in her space. In the future, she wouldn't have to worry about running out of meat.
With her mood improved, she continued organizing the supplies in her space. She divided them by type and stacked them neatly in a corner of the grassland. This way, she would know how much space was left for storage.
Afterward, she checked her granary and saw that the amount had increased a little compared to before. Feeling satisfied with the results, she started filling the empty bottles with pond water.
When she was done, she divided the crystal cores by type and placed them inside separate boxes. Besides the transparent crystal cores and element-type crystal cores, she was surprised to find mutated-type crystal cores.
The lightning-type crystal core was silver, the wind-type crystal core was transparent with silver lines, and the ice-type crystal core was blue with silver lines.
Although the number of mutated crystal cores was not large, she was delighted with the unexpected gain. Compared to normal ability-type cores, mutated-type cores were rarer.
Looking at several boxes of crystal cores, she felt more confident. If they had to face a zombie horde again, they could absorb crystal cores according to their ability types instead of relying on the transparent ones.
The transparent crystal cores would be saved as currency in the future.
While she was busy organizing her space, the soldiers finished washing their clothes and built a rack to dry them. Then, they helped prepare lunch.
After the woman took a shower and changed into a clean set of clothes, she went to the room. Seeing Gao Bohai feeding her brother water, she walked over and said, "Comrade, let me do it."
