Chapter 23 Fragments
After hearing the whole story, Yu Yao glanced indifferently at Zhao Han, whose face was deathly pale.
This caused Zhao Han to blush and shout, "Why blame me? Isn't it because Yu Yao didn't come with us? If she were here, would we have been forced into this situation!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was speechless with shock at her shamelessness.
Luo Mei wasn't about to let her get away with it. She raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Tsk tsk tsk, listen to this, is she even speaking human language?"
This extreme sarcasm made Zhao Han's face even uglier. He glared at her, but only managed to utter a single word: "You!"
Luo Mei raised her chin, her eyes filled with disdain.
"What? Who is Yu Yao to you? Why should she protect you? When something happens, instead of looking for the cause within yourself, you push the blame onto others? Who gave you the audacity? Your mother?"
"I didn't, did I? If Yu Yao were here..."
"Shut up!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Ji Yan stopped Zhao Han from finishing her sentence, his gaze turning icy as he looked at her.
Startled, she immediately shut her mouth and dared not utter another sound.
Yu Yao glanced at the startled Zhao Han, then looked at the purple and red light spots in her mind that resembled Fang Lianjiao.
He took out a rope and said, "Let's tie it up first. Maybe it will awaken some superpowers."
Jiao Yang looked up in surprise.
"She won't die?"
"Not necessarily, it depends on fate." After saying that, Yu Yao looked at Zhao Han and asked, "What did you collect?"
Yu Yao's question made Zhao Han feel like a duck with its neck being squeezed, and she immediately cried out in panic.
"Who am I to tell you?"
Yu Yao said calmly, "If you don't want to continue being attacked by zombies, you'd better tell me."
"What do you mean? Are you saying I received something that caused me to be attacked by zombies? How is that possible? Everyone knows what I received, how could I possibly have something that would attract zombies!" Zhao Han shouted angrily at Yu Yao.
Yu Yao's patience ran out. "Then take out what you've been secretly hiding. You'd better hurry. I don't have the patience to waste any more time with you here."
The reason Yu Yao was so certain was because the treasure chest was right there on Zhao Han's spot of light.
Yu Yao couldn't wait to find out what kind of treasure had such great power.
"What nonsense are you spouting..."
Before Zhao Han could finish speaking, Yu Yao had already placed a sword against her neck.
"Give it to me!"
The sensation of the cold blade against his skin rendered Zhao Han speechless instantly.
"me......"
"hurry up."
Zhao Han swallowed hard, closed her eyes, feeling resentful but powerless.
He could only shakily take out one item after another from his spatial storage.
Gold necklaces, jade bracelets, diamond rings, pearl jewelry, and crystal ornaments.
She secretly stuffed all sorts of precious jewelry from before the apocalypse into her spatial storage.
There were even a lot of gold bricks and gold bars, piled up all over the ground!
Ye Ziang looked at these things and said in a bad tone, "You kept telling us that there wasn't enough space, but you still had room to secretly hide these things?"
Zhao Han turned her head away in shame and anger, clenching her fists and digging her nails into her palms!
He muttered defiantly, "This space is mine; I can put whatever I want in it!"
Ye Ziang's eyes turned cold, and he exchanged a glance with Ji Yan, both conveying the same meaning:
This person is no longer suitable, even if she is a rare spatial ability user.
As they went out to collect supplies, they encountered some survivors and learned about the situation of some people with superpowers.
It's rare to find someone with spatial abilities, so having one in your team is really convenient.
But now, no matter how important or rare spatial ability users are, if they have wicked intentions, they must not stay in the team.
Otherwise, it will bring them utter destruction sooner or later, just like today.
Faced with this treasure trove, Yu Yao and Luo Mei were the most composed.
Yu Yao quickly noticed an irregularly shaped stone that was flashing white light in Zhao Han's private collection.
Yu Yao picked up the stone and asked, "Where did you come from?"
Knowing that she couldn't outwit Yu Yao, Zhao Han had no choice but to answer obediently.
“I picked it up. It was originally an ornament in a glass display case in a jewelry store. I was going to use it to smash another glass display case. But as soon as I picked it up, the outer layer of stone suddenly disappeared, leaving only the thing inside. I thought it was pretty, so I kept it.”
Yu Yao held the ore that was emitting a white light, and felt a strange feeling about it, so she simply put it into her backpack.
Everything placed in the backpack slots will automatically display its name and description, essentially acting as an authentication machine.
As soon as the ore entered the backpack slot, information about the ore automatically appeared in Yu Yao's mind.
"Five-Colored Stone Fragment - White"
The fragments formed from the five-colored stones used by Nuwa to mend the sky contain immense energy. They can enhance supernatural abilities, be converted into experience points, allow zombies to evolve, and have a fatal attraction to zombies.
Five-colored stones? Stones used to mend the sky?
Is there such a thing?
Surely collecting them all won't save the world?
what?
No way!
Although she was very resistant to this possibility, Yu Yao still took out the white fragment and examined it carefully.
This fragment alone can provide 2000000 experience points, allowing Yu Yao to level up many times instantly.
However, there is a note at the end: for each additional fragment, the experience points can be multiplied and stacked.
The experience provided by the two fragments is 200 million x 200 million!
Three pieces would be 200 million x 200 million x 200 million.
2 million experience points is a lot, but after level 40, the experience required to level up exceeds 10 million!
Single-absorption is definitely the least cost-effective option!
......
Yu Yao looked up and asked the dumbfounded Zhao Han, "Is there anything else? You'd better bring it all out."
She's determined to steal it; isn't the whole point of her trip this time this so-called treasure?
Save them, exchange the fragments—nobody loses out!
Zhao Han quickly shook her head: "No, there aren't any left. Just this one. I even checked all the stones around here, and there aren't any left."
Yu Yao hummed in agreement, silently took the white shards, and left the kitchen, going to the window she had come in through.
Then, seemingly with a wave of his hand, he threw the white fragments away.
In reality, just as the stone had been thrown ten meters from his hand and landed in the horde of zombies, he used his mental power to put it back into his backpack.
One-click undo.
Just as she put away the fragments, she clearly sensed a change in the zombies outside.
Yu Yao thus confirmed that the game's inventory slots could conceal the aura of the Five-Colored Stone fragments.
But not wanting to reveal the nature of her space, she pretended to have lost it.
The others followed her out, and Luo Mei, seeing that she had thrown away the stone, asked curiously.
"Is there anything strange about that stone? Why was it thrown away?"
"It's a meteorite that can make zombies evolve and has a deadly attraction to them. If we don't lose it, we'll be facing an endless horde of zombies."
Zhao Han exclaimed in surprise, and the expressions of Jiao Yang and the others also changed.
Luo Mei became interested, "There are such things?"
"We already have zombies, what's so strange about a meteorite?"
"Tsk, that's true, it's really amazing."
Without the five-colored stone fragments, the zombies outside suddenly became restless.
Yu Yao was worried that having so many living people gathered together would still cause the zombies to go berserk.
Why not expand the area of the Sky-Covering Stone to cover everyone?
There is a drawback to doing this with the Sky-Covering Stone.
She cannot move easily, otherwise the shielding effect will become unstable.
If things were to take place, the maximum effect of the Sky-Covering Stone would only be within the range of two people.
not enough.
In addition, the original survivors in the mall had already fled after discovering that the zombies were no longer attacking them, which saved Yu Yao a lot of trouble.
It saves you the trouble of deciding whether or not to get involved.
Luo Mei noticed something amiss in her surroundings, and her eyes flickered.
Then, after meeting Yu Yao's gaze, he blinked knowingly and slightly curved his lips into a smile.
......
Without the allure of the five-colored stone fragments and living people, the zombies outside began to slowly disperse.
Only a few remain stubbornly stuck in place, refusing to leave.
Once the danger had temporarily passed, Yu Yao pointed to the window and said, "The zombies in the mall won't disperse for now, so let's go out through the window."
Zhao Han instinctively objected, "It's so high, how are we supposed to get up there?"
Luo Mei retorted, "Go wherever you want."
"you!"
Luo Mei rolled her eyes. "Stop with the 'you' and 'me'. You only know this one word over and over again. Don't you feel ashamed?"
"I, I'm not, I just..."
Seeing Zhao Han unable to say anything, Tan He felt a little sorry for her and held her wrist to comfort her.
"Alright, Hanhan, they mean well. The mall is full of zombies that can't escape, it's too dangerous for us to go out rashly. Going out the window is the best route."
"But, but I..."
"I'll take you down, don't be afraid."
He's already said so much, what else can Zhao Han say?
He had no choice but to obediently nod and stick to Tan He's side, not daring to stand out any longer.
