Adrian Paige froze.
For a moment, he couldn’t answer her question.
Myra Lawson, however, knew Nina Jacobs’s personality. She took the walkie-talkie and explained the situation.
"Oh? A zombie tide?"
Nina Jacobs feigned ignorance, but she mulled over Myra Lawson’s words.
According to Myra Lawson’s description, as long as they could find a way to temporarily seal off the zombies emerging from this pier, the tide could still be turned.
This location was crucial, which meant the zombie tide was preventable.
"So that’s how it is. You should have just said so sooner.
Right, I also need Liaoyuan Crystals from the Weapons Research Institute—the more, the better. And some Water Element Superpower Users or Ice Ability Users..."
Nina Jacobs listed her demands one by one.
Her tone was as familiar as if she were talking to family.
And Myra Lawson noted down every item.
Her attitude was as earnest as if she had just met her saviors.
"Nina, are you really okay up there?"
Daniel Hale couldn’t help but ask.
"I’m fine. It just means I’ll probably be getting home later than planned."
Nina Jacobs replied.
"Nina Jacobs, don’t worry. As long as you can resolve this crisis, you can name your price in Crystal Cores afterward."
Myra Lawson said smoothly.
Adrian Paige watched from the side, looking at the person who was usually the most difficult to deal with, Myra Lawson.
’In the past, she was always the one making demands of others. But now, before this Nina Jacobs had even said a word, she was already making a proactive offer?’
"Good. I’ll wait for you here."
A satisfied smile appeared on Nina Jacobs’s face.
’Dealing with acquaintances really is easier.’
However...
Nina Jacobs looked down at the shifting layer of ice.
If she were to completely seal this area off as Myra Lawson hoped, it would be a true test of her Superpower Energy.
Before anyone arrived, Nina Jacobs took out several "Superpower Energy Stones" from her storage and quickly used the Source Stones to replenish the Superpower she had just expended.
Fortunately, these "Superpower Energy Stones" were all "fully charged."
By the time Myra Lawson arrived with reinforcements via the underground passage, Nina Jacobs was still using her Superpower to Control the liquid flames on the ice’s surface.
When Adrian Paige saw Nina Jacobs in person, he was incredibly surprised.
She looked very young, her vibrant face holding a touch of immaturity.
To be more precise, she was in excellent condition, showing no signs of weakness from Superpower exhaustion.
Daniel Hale was completely relieved after seeing Nina Jacobs. He didn’t go forward to disturb her, instead continuing to use his Spiritual Element Superpower to scan and report on the surrounding situation.
"We’ve already stationed enough troops on the main roads nearby. As long as we cut off the source here, we can guarantee a zombie tide won’t form for at least 30 hours."
Myra Lawson explained, holding an electronic map.
"I understand. Let’s get started right away."
Nina Jacobs said.
"Miss Jacobs, here are 120 Liaoyuan Crystals. It’s the entire current stock from the Weapons Research Institute."
A man in sunglasses walked over, holding two boxes full of Liaoyuan Crystals.
Nina Jacobs took one and handed it to a curious Nia Quinn, who was standing nearby.
Then she said to the man, "Thank you, this is more than enough."
It was clear Myra Lawson was cooperating with her completely. She remembered Chelsea Walsh saying that Liaoyuan Crystals were very difficult to requisition.
Yet the Weapons Research Institute had sent someone to deliver them so quickly.
"I see. This thing is indeed ingeniously designed."
After a brief look, Nia carefully placed the Liaoyuan Crystal back.
Nina Jacobs continued to focus all her effort on the river’s surface.
Just then, the man in sunglasses froze on the spot.
He took off his sunglasses, revealing he only had one eye. The other must have been damaged by some external force and was completely stitched shut.
"Miss Bell? Are you the Professor Bell?"
