If they hadn't told them that they were people with supernatural powers, Song Kexin would have thought they were a group of ordinary beggars coming from some small base in the corner...
"Is your base so poor?" Song Shijun asked curiously, "You don't usually do tasks to earn contribution points?"
Isn't it difficult for a person with special abilities to make a living in the base?
"What kind of supernatural beings are you all?"
The young girl raised her hand, "I, I am a first-level fire superpower. My name is Lang Xiaoye."
"I am a first-level wind superpower." The middle-aged man continued, "My name is Liang Zhongping."
Everyone reported their families one after another. Among the dozen or so people, only Huang Genmei was a second-level earth element user, while the others were all first-level superpowers.
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other.
"You guys, your abilities haven't increased in the past year or so?" Team A members originally thought that their abilities had grown slowly enough.
After all, compared to the growth rate of my sister-in-law's family's abilities, they are as slow as a tortoise.
"And it costs much less than just making things like metal knives."
"But if you are unlucky, you may not be able to catch a mutant animal in one day."
Everyone:......
The real exploitation is here!
Xie Ning looked at them expressionlessly, "How much is it."
This eldest sister seems to be a bit arrogant.
The Gu Shang Base is one of the five major bases in the Kyushu Continent. Such an important situation should not be concealed.
"Those of us with special abilities have to go out to fight zombies and do tasks to get a small amount of contribution points. The contribution points we get every day are barely enough to exchange for a wild vegetable pancake and a bowl of white porridge."
Gu Chen glanced at them curiously, "Is your current base leader Chen Zheng?"
Feeling the fluctuations in their abilities, Xie Ning raised her eyebrows slightly, "Are you all of the metal type?"
It seems that this mission is a bit not simple.
Song Shijun put his head on her sister's shoulder and said with a surprised look on his face, "Brother and sister, you are too miserable."
"What do you usually eat at the base?" Why do all of them look sallow and skinny like refugees?
It's a pity that Captain Xie's entire little face is covered by a mask and scarf, otherwise she would be able to see her wonderful expressions...
Xie Ning:......
The two of them looked at each other and read a message from each other's gaze: Chen Zheng was dead, but Chen Zhaowei kept it secret and never reported it to Gyeonggi?
Song Kexin opened her mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time.
Song Youai was worried that Song Kexin would be invaded by the mutated bugs on their body, so he kept dragging the girl back, but Song Kexin kept moving forward with a curious face.
Song Kexin stood not far away with her mouth wide open. Song Youai dragged her back a small step. She still couldn't help but curiously asked, "You guys, your base is too poor! What's wrong with you? You don't look like a person with powers at all."
Damn it, they can't associate the term "garbage picking" with people with metal powers.
"The knives made by those of us with first-level metal powers are not much different from ordinary kitchen knives. The prices are high and no one buys them. It is not cost-effective to sell them at a low price. After all, we also consume a lot of powers to make knives.
"
Now I suddenly see a group of beggars with metal powers, which feels a bit unexpected.
Everyone:......
"Once all the powers are used up, the recovery will be very slow. It is better to go out and hunt mutant animals. If you are lucky, you can catch one or two, and the mutated animal meat can be exchanged for a lot of contribution points."
Now that he is not seeking death, his expression is not as distorted as before, and he looks more pleasing to the eye, ahem.
"What's wrong with the superpowers? The base doesn't need us. The base uses ordinary middle-aged workers to repair and build the base. They only need to pay a few contribution points and provide a lunch."
"Ah? What if you can't hit the mutated animals?" Song Kexin was shocked.
Xie Ning glanced around and focused on the men and women at the door who were in tattered clothes and looked more like beggars than Huang Genmei Lang Xiaoye.
As soon as these words came out, Gu Chen and Lu Wei both narrowed their eyes and suppressed the expressions of disbelief on their faces.
"Collecting garbage!" Behind the forty-year-old man, a girl about the same age as Song Kexin suddenly said, "What else can you do? If you can pick up some rare metal garbage and transform it into something useful, there will be people who will buy it.
of."
"Zombies are everywhere, but zombie meat can't be eaten!"
For no apparent reason, everyone secretly glanced at Xie Ning.
Everyone:......
Unexpectedly, the leading beggar man glanced at Song Kexin with a wry smile, "Little girl, your thinking is too simple."
"Don't you have a breeding farm?"
Chen Zheng was on the Yang family's ship before the apocalypse. It is currently unknown what their relationship will be after the apocalypse.
"And we can't afford the mutated animal meat we raise." Sister Huang got up from the sofa and shouted, "We might as well go out and hunt by ourselves."
I thought that their base's twenty contribution to order a simple meal would be enough to exploit the masses, but I didn't expect...
Having this kind of first- and second-order abilities is indeed almost dispensable to the base, and is not much different from ordinary people...
Unexpectedly, Sister Huang shook her head repeatedly, "The person has been replaced a long time ago, more than half a year ago. The base director Chen you mentioned died half a year ago. Now his son Chen Zhaowei is in charge."
Because of her sister's relationship, she has always felt that gold-type superpowers are the most awesome among all superpowers.
Nowadays, the zombies outside, the more powerful ones, have developed to the fifth and sixth levels.
In Gyeonggi, the average person is a third-level or above supernatural being.
"One hundred contribution points!"
"Who can feed the little food from the farm? It's not just for the leaders above them."
"But this is better than us. We work hard all day to hunt mutant animals, but we may get nothing at the end of the day."
Everyone:......
Unexpectedly, the growth rate of the superpowers who sold the base was even slower.
"Brother, aren't you metal-type superpowers? You sell knives! If you make some metal knives and sell them, won't you get a lot of contribution points?"
The beggar leader, ahem, a man over forty years old nodded, with a rather steady expression, "You feel it? Yes, the four of us are all gold power users."
Song Kexin had a look of hatred on her face, "You are all superpowers! Oh, I'm so angry. How can you pick up garbage?"
Huang Genmei had already sat up from the sofa and replied smoothly, "What can you do if you don't pick up trash? You can still eat by picking up trash."
"Hey, what a waste of a base you guys are!" Zhai Ruobai suddenly said, "Let's go, come back to Gyeonggi with us."
"First cooperate with Dr. Yu to treat the sandworms on your body. There will be a lot of good days in the future, so don't die."
"Young man, you are right!" Huang Genmei immediately agreed, "I have not wanted to die for a long time."
