The crystal nucleus of the Nine-Tails team disappeared without a trace overnight.
As the uncrowned kings of the commoner teams, the Nine-Tails team is almost comparable to the S-rank without the support of the aristocratic family. The Nine-Tails team is also one of the earliest established teams. It is conceivable how large the number of zombie crystal cores the team has accumulated.
And they disappeared overnight!
Disappeared as if evaporated!
Not even a scrap of residue remained.
This weird fact inevitably attracted the attention of the top management of the Yellow River base, and the object of suspicion was directed at Team Rising Sun. Shen Xu didn't come forward to deny it, although he was also very shocked by this fact and didn't know what happened. It wasn't until Fang Zonghe invited the four major families to discuss this matter that Shen Xu made it clear that this matter had nothing to do with him.
Seeing that Fang Zonghe still had doubts, Shen Xu's father, the current head of the Shen family, was dissatisfied and said, "Does Mr. Fang have doubts about the credibility of my Shen family? It’s better not to force it on our heads.”
Everyone here knows that the Nine-Tails team is advertised as a civilian team, but the person standing behind Wu Huan is Fang Zonghe. He does not have absolute control over the base formation army. To use more than 500 people, the four major families need to make a joint decision. Under such circumstances, it is understandable for him to cultivate his own manpower, and the four major families did not stop him.
Fang Zonghe said with a smile: "Why does Patriarch Shen make such a statement? We are just discussing the matter. After all, there are nearly 600,000 crystal nuclei and thousands of secondary crystal nuclei. How can we not find out the truth."
"I don't care if you check yours. Anyway, my son has already said that he didn't do it. Don't charge my Shen family with trumped-up charges. I won't interfere."
Master Shen made a statement.
Fang Zonghe frowned, and said: "But the only person with storage space abilities found in the base so far is under the command of your son, and only that person has the ability-"
"Mr. Fang, are you saying that my son's first-level space power user is the culprit of this incident? A joke!" Shen Patriarch sneered: "You all know that the storage space of that power user is only one cubic meter. Mi, you can count how many things you can put. If he did it, how many times would he have to go back and forth to successfully transfer this batch of crystal nuclei? Could it be that the five-sense supernatural beings of the Nine-Tails team are all dead, so they can't notice anything strange? "
The place where each team stores crystal nuclei is the most secret and also the most tightly guarded place. If people can come and go freely like this, then the ability of the Nine-Tails team has yet to be evaluated.
Fang Zonghe was questioned.
Another chuckled.
But it was the only woman present, that is, the head of the Xuanyuan family. She said: "I heard that Captain Wu Huan didn't give our Xuanyuan family any face yesterday. I haven't waited for him to express anything until now, and I thought it was him. What does Mr. Fang mean. Hey, I didn’t expect the wicked to have their own harvest. However, I really want to know whether those batches of crystal nuclei grew legs and ran away by themselves, or were they guarded and stolen.”
She raised her hands like a Lafayette, and sitting beside her was a rough and strong man—her husband, who was also the most powerful third-level power in the Xuanyuan family, and was carefully grooming her nails at this time.
Fang Zonghe's unkind eyes fell on Patriarch Xuanyuan, and the man who had been ignoring other people raised his head, and a dagger appeared in front of Fang Zonghe's eyes in an instant and almost pierced his eyes. "Sorry, the ability is out of control."
He said without sincerity, and took the dagger back.
This is a metal supernatural being.
Fang Zonghe swallowed back what he was going to say, and said in a matter-of-fact way: "The monitor was destroyed, and there was no trace left in the audience. But I guarantee with my head that the disappearance of this batch of crystal cores is definitely not the cause of the Nine-Tails team. Or whoever directed and acted it, it really disappeared without warning. If Captain Shen didn't take action, then there is only one possibility."
He paused, and said, "Everyone hasn't forgotten the level 4 zombies we discussed last time, right? I originally suspected that he was near the base, and now this incident has confirmed my opinion."
Fang Zonghe's words finally attracted the attention of the four casual families.
Patriarch Duan said: "Mr. Fang's consciousness is that this time it's a level 4 zombie?"
"I personally prefer this guess." Fang Zonghe nodded, "There is no trace of crystal nuclei left at the scene. If it is not absorbed by the space, it will be swallowed by zombies..."
Thinking that the level 4 zombies they had been guarding against had finally come, and even got into the Yellow River base, everyone's expressions were very solemn.
At this time, the "Level 4 Zombie" they called was being worshiped by Dongfang Bai and others.
"Long live Monkey Brother!"
"Good job Monkey!"
"It's so cool! Hahahaha!"
When they learned that Hou Ying had stolen all of the Nine-Tails team's property with an eye for an eye, everyone laughed so hard that they couldn't see their eyes, and they couldn't wait to run three laps!
Hou Ying suppressed a smile with a sullen face, and said to them seriously: "We have absorbed so many first-level crystal nuclei, and the number is as high as the energy of fourth-level crystal nuclei. Our top priority now is to let you upgrade, and other things will wait for you." Have fun later."
Everyone's ecstatic expressions reached a new height!
More than half a million crystal nuclei, my God, this is enough energy for a fourth-level crystal nucleus! And there must be more than one!
Seeing that they were so happy, Hou Ying stopped talking, and finally burst into laughter. He coughed and said as seriously as possible: "I originally planned to decide who to take refuge in two days, but now I will take it easy. Wait until the early morning The guild has started work, so we will go to pick up the task, the farther the distance, the longer the time limit, the better, and by the way, we can get back our previous supplies." Speaking of this, he paused, and said: "Now there is one thing I want to Seek everyone's opinion."
Everyone hurriedly corrected their expressions and listened.
Hou Ying said: "I plan to formally recruit Wu Nan and the others, what do you think?"
They all understand what formal absorption means, Brother Monkey will tell them about his specialness, and they will also help them upgrade without reservation.
Liu Zhan, who always thinks the most in the team, said first: "Based on the current observation, I think their character is still credible. However, Brother Hou was bitten by a zombie before and recovered."
How Hou Ying defeated the zombie virus, they still can't figure it out. But there is no doubt that if this feature is known to outsiders and spread, Brother Hou will definitely become an experimental product and he will still be righteous. At that time, no matter how powerful their abilities are, they will have to face the pursuit of the entire camp of human beings with abilities.
Hou Ying nodded, "I didn't intend to take the initiative to tell you other things except that I was able to absorb the conduction crystal nucleus energy and borrow the supernatural power."
The others nodded upon hearing this.
They do not exclude newcomers, but their trust in Wu Nan and the others has not been unreserved.
They made a decision like this, and the next day they waited outside the team guild to pick up the mission and left the base before three o'clock in the morning, leaving the base staff who came to claim for compensation in vain. The staff directly approached the guarantor of Hou Ying and others, that is, Shen Xu. After learning that the other party had accepted the task and was very active in repaying the debt, they agreed to postpone the signing of the claim agreement until they returned from the task.
After seeing off the staff, Miao Feng couldn't help but said: "Captain, do you think they will be scared away by the huge debt and leave the mess to us?"
Shen Xu couldn't be sure either, and said with a headache, "I can only gamble."
If it doesn't work, then he can only be cheeky and beg his father to intercede with Xuanyuan's family to let them let this matter go.
Hou Ying and the others didn't know Shen Xu's worries, and when he was far away from the safe area of the Yellow River Base, he explained to Wu Nan and others the meaning of formally recruiting into the team, and told him that he was not an ordinary person.
A few people in Wunan were blown up by Hou Ying's ability to freely absorb and conduct crystal nucleus energy, and then they were blown up by four fourth-level superpowers in their team. After Hou Ying and the others finished discussing who should upgrade first , They still have that blank expression.
The Nine-Tails team has a very strong family background. Among all their crystal nuclei, the five elements are still the most, followed by the five senses and power. The types are very complete, and there are even ten spiritual white crystals!
Hou Ying decided to let Dongfang Bai and Jiang Tao upgrade first, and then upgrade Liu Zhan if the remaining Five Elements Crystal energy is still enough. It was Wu Nan and Su Fenghe's turn, followed by Ji Yao and Wang Hehe.
Next came Zhou Tianyi and Li Dong, both of the five elements, and Ye Huizhong, who also had the five senses.
Their mission this time did not have a specified mission location, so they drove directly to Jicheng to retrieve the two heavy trucks and the supplies they had saved before, and then used Jicheng as their temporary stop to concentrate on upgrading and breaking through the team.
Their mission this time was issued by a company commander of the base organization named Peng Haodong. He exchanged a third-level wind-type blue crystal for a third-level lightning golden crystal. This kind of mission issued by individuals is not common, but this Peng Haodong also has a certain status in the base. In addition to his status as the company commander of the establishment army, he is also a third-level ability user.
Peng Haodong was one of the first batch of supernatural powers. Everyone in his supernatural attribute base knew that he was a rare dual-element natural supernatural power, possessing both wind power and lightning power.
He is already a third-level power user of the wind system, and he is willing to give up a third-level blue crystal. It can be seen that his lightning ability has reached the second-level high-level, and he is waiting for a third-level lightning golden crystal to help him break through. This is not a mandatory task that must be completed, similar to a transaction between individuals, the clan guild just provides a platform.
Hou Ying and the others just wanted an excuse to stay away from the base, which couldn't be more appropriate.
Five days later, the team successfully completed this upgrade breakthrough.
