After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 273

Chapter 273: Chapter 273: You’d Better Be Serious

Nina Jacobs hadn’t expected Shirley Lucas to possess an infinite space.

However, this kind of space demanded a huge amount of a Superpower User’s Superpower Energy.

When she opened the system’s teammate panel, she saw that Shirley Lucas’s Superpower Value was still less than 30.

A low Superpower Value was a common problem for Space Superpower Users.

After all, unlike with Combat-type Superpowers, Space Superpower Users couldn’t repeatedly deplete and train their Superpower every day.

They only got to use it when retrieving items.

The reason Ian Chandler’s Superpower Value was higher was that he went out with the rescue teams almost daily to collect supplies, which required him to use his space extensively.

However, she believed Shirley Lucas’s ability would eventually draw the base’s attention.

After Shirley Lucas left,

Nina Jacobs took out the "Diamond Sand" the system had gifted her for saving Lana and the others the day before.

’It’s really... sand?’

Nina Jacobs was a little surprised.

The so-called "Diamond Sand" was a substance that looked like a small cloth bag of sand.

Poured onto the tabletop, it looked even more like ordinary sand, except the grains reflected flecks of golden light.

Nina Jacobs tried to control it with her Earth Element Superpower and only then discovered the wonders of the Diamond Sand.

Under the control of her Earth Element Superpower, the Diamond Sand could change into any shape.

Even a thin Vajra Shield.

The small shield was exceptionally sturdy, even surpassing a Stone Shield.

"It’s a good defensive weapon."

There was only a small bag’s worth of Diamond Sand. Nina Jacobs tried to form a regular Earth Shield and incorporate the Diamond Sand into it.

Then, she attacked it with a small Fire Spike.

BANG!

The Fire Spike couldn’t penetrate the Earth Shield at all.

Although she hadn’t used her full power for the Fire Spike, it would normally be enough to shatter an ordinary Earth Shield or Stone Shield.

This proved the Diamond Sand could truly make something indestructible.

The only problem was the quantity was still too small.

Nina Jacobs called out to the system, and the answer it gave was also very simple:

[Earth Attribute Weapon: Diamond Sand. The host can obtain more by continuously triggering relevant titles. The probability of acquisition is random.]

’Relevant titles... Is it "Heart of Gratitude"?’

Nina Jacobs pondered this. The Diamond Sand had many advantages. Not only could it be freely transformed, but it could also be used in conjunction with her system’s storage slots.

Even if she took it out of a storage slot and threw it into the air, others would just think they were Earth Element sand particles she had created.

’Looks like I’ll need to trigger that title more often in the future...’

...

「On the fourth day of the Superpower User tournament.」

The morning was dedicated to duels between the rescue team captains.

Chester Pearson was one of the standouts. He and the other four victorious captains formed a team.

This team, composed of rescue team captains, would join the 13 Superpower User teams for the subsequent matches.

"Picking the top four out of fourteen teams? How will that work?"

Leo Hale said, looking at the remaining teams on the screen.

"It’s simple. Out of the fourteen teams, two will get a bye. The remaining twelve will fight to become six. The six winning teams plus the two with byes makes exactly eight teams."

Chase Gallagher answered.

"A bye? Byes are great!

If we get another one, won’t we go straight to the quarterfinals?"

Leo Hale said excitedly.

Stellarys had already experienced one bye, and the feeling of getting a free pass was amazing.

"Not happening. This time, the teams with byes will be designated by the base.

But the rescue team’s squad is definitely one of them."

Nina Jacobs said.

"We should just get ready for the match."

Holden Shaw stretched.

Just as Chase Gallagher had said, two teams indeed received byes for the afternoon matches.

One was the newly formed rescue team squad.

The other was the Superpower User Alliance.

No one objected to this outcome. In fact, the remaining teams all breathed a sigh of relief.

The power gap was just too vast.
