Chapter 920: Crazy Collection of Crystal Cores (4)
Bai Lu's face showed some embarrassment and anxiety, but she finally decided to tell the truth.
"Because I need money. I know that the crystal core can be exchanged for points at the trading center, but it is too risky for me to act alone. If I follow Sister Wanwan, the risk should be reduced. Of course, I don't want Sister Wanwan to protect me. I just want to try my best to gain some opportunities for myself."
"Then you should know that if anything happens to you, it is impossible for me to put aside my own affairs for you, let alone save you." Gu Tongwan's expression was very indifferent, even a little inhuman. She just tried her best to explain the facts to Bai Lu.
Although Bai Lu felt a little disappointed, she quickly cheered up again, and the determination in her eyes remained the same. "Don't worry about this. I just think that you have rich combat experience. And I observed along the way that your purpose should be to go for the zombie crystal core, right?" Bai Lu softened her tone a little when she said the last sentence, and she was even observing Gu Tongwan's expression, because once she said this, it was equivalent to directly exposing the purpose of Gu Tongwan's action.
Fortunately, Gu Tongwan didn't care about these things. After all, everyone had witnessed her madly killing zombies along the way. She had also taken crystal cores out of zombies' heads in front of other people, but unfortunately the effect was minimal. Only a few zombies could form crystal cores in their brains. However, she did get system points for killing zombies, so it was considered a profit.
"Killing zombies is not as easy as you think, and not all zombies have crystal cores in their brains. If you get bitten accidentally, there is a risk of infection before a vaccine is developed, and you may even become food for zombies." Gu Tongwan's eyes fell on the iron rod in Bai Lu's hand. She didn't think that this thing alone could kill zombies.
"I know. I won't hold you back. If something happens to me, you don't have to save me. That would mean my fate is over." Bai Lu said anxiously.
"Well, you have to think it through. Ordinary zombies are fine, but if we encounter evolved zombies, non-superpowered people like us will definitely die." Chen Xia next to him really didn't understand why this little girl wanted to kill zombies for crystal cores. Was she short of money? That shouldn't be the case. She can work in a big company and live in a luxury hotel suite.
"I've thought it through very clearly. I want to have my own house. I don't have any other relatives anyway, so the house will be a motivation for me to stay alive and start a new life." You can feel that Bai Lu was a little depressed when she brought up this topic, but her low mood did not last long. After all, as a little girl, she was able to survive the apocalypse and even enter the base and have a stable job. She must be more stable and stronger than the average person.
"Sister Wanwan, I really won't hold you back. I just feel that you are experienced, and it would be more efficient for me to follow you than to wander around on my own." Perhaps because Gu Tongwan had not expressed her opinion, Bai Lu became more and more anxious, and even her voice sounded like tears.
Gu Tongwan pondered for a moment, then his expression became cold, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes. "You can come with me, but I will need two zombie crystal cores as a reward. During this period, I can help you once. If you don't want to, then forget it."
This was also the decision Gu Tongwan made after careful consideration. She didn't like being morally blackmailed, and she didn't like invisible pressure even more. But if they were just going to travel together, it was not impossible. Besides, Bai Lu was also very excited, and those two crystal cores were actually a disguised warning to Bai Lu.
After discussing, the two decided to set off immediately, but they didn't expect to be stopped by Chen Xia.
