The power Jin Xuyan had just displayed was no longer at a level-two ability-user's level.
Based on how at ease he had been while fighting against that level-three mutant zombie, his level was at least four, if not higher.
Seeing that he was regulating his energy, Jiao Lizhi didn't disturb him and went to collect the crystal cores.
Both of them had already guessed that there was a level-three zombie nearby when they saw two level-two zombies partnering up to fight them.
Without the control of a higher-level zombie, two zombies at the same level would have killed each other instead of teaming up.
She had simply underestimated the enemy and was injured. This lesson snapped her back from her arrogance. Even if she was reborn and stronger than other ability-users, she was still weaker than the zombies.
For an unknown reason, the zombies were evolving faster than in her previous life. She needed to be more careful, keep her head cool, and remain humble in the future.
Jiao Lizhi checked the surroundings for a while. When she was sure that there were no other zombies around, she took out two bottles of pond water from her space and walked toward Jin Xuyan.
She didn't disturb him and stood beside him to guard him. Feeling hungry, she took out a loaf of raisin bread and a pack of cheddar cheese. While guarding Jin Xuyan, she sat in front of him and ate slowly.
Thirty minutes later, Jin Xuyan opened his eyes and saw Jiao Lizhi sitting in front of him while filling an empty water bottle.
Seeing him finally open his eyes, Jiao Lizhi handed him two bottles of pond water and said, "Brother Yan, drink some water."
When he heard this, Jin Xuyan found her behavior very cute. Maybe because she was a water-type ability user, she liked to offer water to others.
Reaching out, he accepted the water and opened the cap. He finished the water in several gulps before asking, "Ah Zhi, are you okay?"
Jiao Lizhi nodded and replied, "Brother Yan, I'm fine. It's you who are full of injuries. Should we return first and come back tomorrow with your team?"
After absorbing the cold energy, Jin Xuyan's body had long recovered from the injuries. He shook his head and stood up while saying, "I'm fine, it's just small injuries. We should go get the seeds first."
Jiao Lizhi observed him for a moment and asked, "Brother Yan, are you really alright?"
Jin Xuyan chuckled, reached out to pull her up, and said, "I'm really alright. Let's get the seeds before dark."
Since he seemed alright, Jiao Lizhi no longer asked about his condition and followed him. The two of them had been fighting for a long time and felt tired. So, they didn't go to the dormitories to clear the zombies but went directly to the warehouse.
Jiao Lizhi didn't know whether these mutated plants would be edible or not, but she wanted to test if her space could purify them.
So, she thought for a moment and said, "Brother Yan, I still want to take some back. If they turn into inedible mutated plants, we can still use them for research purposes."
Hearing her reasoning, Jin Xuyan said, "If that's what you want, then we will take them."
Jiao Lizhi nodded and went to the closest green seedling. She didn't dare get too close and collected it from a distance. With a wave of her hand, the mutated plant disappeared from their sight and reappeared inside her space.
After she collected the plant, she checked her space and saw that the plant not only didn't wither and die, but it also became more vibrant.
The only difference between the mutated plant in her space and the one in the field was that there were no dark red veins on the stems and leaves.
With this discovery, she smiled and quickly collected the rest of the mutated plants.
Jin Xuyan was not worried that the mutated plants she collected would harm her. After all, everything stored in the space of a space-type ability user would freeze in time. freeweɓnøvel.com
