Chapter 149: Chapter 149: The Objective

Huang Tao’s expression was stiff as he asked, “Brother Su, was I a bit impulsive just now?”

Just now, he saw the crowd suddenly riot and didn’t know what to do, so he acted directly.

Su Changxing thought for a moment and said, “Hmm, maybe if you had just killed that person outright, the rest wouldn’t have happened.”

Huang Tao was stunned for a few seconds and said, “I mean, when I first acted and hit someone.”

Su Changxing found a spot to sit down beside him and said seriously, “I’m sure Huang Biao won’t hit you.”

“That’s good.”

Huang Tao breathed a sigh of relief and changed the topic, “I mean, now there are more people, and the troublesome things are increasing. Just this morning, forty or fifty people joined our camp.”

It was clear he was indeed very afraid of Huang Biao, at least zombies weren’t as terrifying as Huang Biao.

It wasn’t long before Huang Biao hurriedly came in from outside. Obviously, he had already understood the situation, and looking at those making trouble, he said very directly:

“You all can leave. Our base has its own rules. If you can’t accept them, then leave.”

The troublemakers’ faces changed, and immediately one of them quickly said:

“Boss Huang, I didn’t want any trouble either. It was all his idea, saying this way we could eat more. He also led us to act just now.”

Their group was originally just a temporary team without much camaraderie, and any benefits could easily split them apart.

“Yes, Boss Huang, please give us another chance, it was all his idea.”

Another person stood up and said, and the others quickly identified the man whose face was turning red.

The man whose face was turning red looked even more embarrassed, not expecting his companions to suddenly stand up and accuse him, even though they had planned this together.

Huang Biao cracked a slight smile and said, “Since that’s the case, I’ll give you another chance. If anyone causes trouble again, don’t blame me for being rude.”

The red-faced man seemed a bit awkward as he looked at Huang Biao and asked, “Can I stay here too?”

Huang Biao nodded and said, “Mmm, work hard in the afternoon, and you’ll get food in the evening. You have to give to get.”

Su Changxing watched as Huang Biao walked over to their side, now with a few more bandages, but it was evident he was stronger than the day before, likely due to Attribute Enhancement.

Huang Biao wore a faint smile as he said, “Brother, yesterday we found three Mysterious Shops. Although the loss was significant, it was still better than I expected.”

Su Changxing remembered that at the second Mysterious Shop, Huang Biao said they were preparing to head back, but they ended up finding another one. He couldn’t help but say:

“Ha, you are indeed greedy, but your luck is really good.”

Huang Biao and the others ran around outside all night without encountering any Hunters; their luck was indeed good. At the same time, Su Changxing noticed that the Hunters were concentrated in the area he was active in last night.

Could it mean that the Hunters had a stronghold nearby?

Huang Biao gestured and walked towards the study, feeling there were too many people here, and some things were not appropriate to discuss openly.

Su Changxing followed Huang Biao into the study, sat down, and asked, “Did you encounter only Attribute Enhancement yesterday?”

Huang Biao nodded, “Yes, four Speed Enhancements, two Power Enhancements; five of us got enhanced in total.”

Su Changxing thought for a moment and asked, “So how many times have you been enhanced?”

Huang Biao also sat next to him, leaning against the table, and said, “Twice, one Speed, one Power. I feel my body has become much stronger, an unscientific improvement.”

He paused and continued, “The boost from Attribute Enhancement is indeed significant. Yesterday we encountered an Undead Tide, and everyone who was enhanced survived.”

Su Changxing reflected for a moment and said, “It’s true. The first few Attribute Enhancements provide the greatest improvement. With this distribution, you can maximize its use.”

The first enhancement has the most significant impact on a person, no matter which attribute is enhanced, although it’s not reflected in the numbers, there’s a substantial improvement in every aspect.

Huang Biao’s expression gradually grew a bit excited and said, “I found this is completely like a snowball effect. The more enhancements we gain, the stronger our team becomes, and the easier the process of finding Mysterious Shops becomes. Plus, we can acquire a lot of supplies from the Mysterious Shops.”

Su Changxing thought about how Huang Biao had seemingly undergone Physique Enhancement once before, which meant he was now enhanced three times, and being balanced in enhancements might make him even stronger than Xu Chu’s Sweat, reminding:

“Be careful, enhancements can be done a maximum of six times; any more, and you’re likely to die immediately.”

Huang Biao was stunned and said, “Is there such a thing? But I also feel that continuous enhancement is very unscientific; how could humans keep being enhanced indefinitely.”

Su Changxing glanced out the door and said, “The people in the base seem a bit numerous, and with more people, problems arise easily. Are there any issues?”

Huang Biao frowned and said, “No big problems, just afraid someone might steal supplies. After all, with cell phones, stealing supplies is quite easy, not even needing transportation.”

Su Changxing thought for a moment and said, “If there are no other groups around, the problem isn’t big. Just worry about people from other groups sneaking in.”

“Mmm.”

Huang Biao understood and knew Su Changxing was suggesting him to filter the people entering the camp, so he said, “Mmm, now we’re not too short-handed; I’ve withdrawn the posts from the forum. With more people, it’s indeed troublesome, and our supplies aren’t exactly abundant.”

Su Changxing glanced at Huang Biao’s abdominal wound and said, “Is your injury from yesterday healed?”

Huang Biao pointed at his abdomen and said, “Improved, doesn’t affect movement now. My recovery ability is indeed a bit unique.”

Su Changxing confirmed, “This should be a Superpower, just its presence is weak.”

“A Superpower?”

Huang Biao wasn’t too surprised, having heard of such things before, and said, “Feels a bit ordinary, rather average.”

Su Changxing hesitated and said, “As far as I know, people with a Superpower should find it easier to become an Extraordinary.”

Huang Biao instantly understood Su Changxing’s meaning and said, “So I can become an Extraordinary more easily than others.”

Su Changxing nodded, “Theoretically, yes, but how it actually works, we need to test… you know, if things continue like this, not many people will survive in the end.”

Huang Biao felt a bit heavy, hearing Su Changxing mention this for the second time, like a revelation of the shadow hidden behind the scenes.

He then saw a hint of a smile on Su Changxing’s face and asked in surprise, “Do you have a way?”

Su Changxing contemplated and said, “It can’t exactly be called a way, but if we can find a stable method to become Extraordinary and let more people become Extraordinary, then open up the Extraordinary era, maybe things will turn around.”

This was one of the resolutions he could think of now, pieced together from various clues.

Huang Biao’s eyes showed a look of shock, surprised that Su Changxing would have such thoughts, completely different from the perspective of ordinary people, like looking up, while others look down.
