End of the World Cycle

When they got down to the foot of the mountain, Qin Zhang's people had already set up their tents. Their own people were still sitting quietly in the car, especially Shui Limu and Miao Zhe, who were staring at the satellite phones in their hands nervously.

Only when he saw Xie Qin holding an umbrella appeared in his sight did he let go of the phone.

It was almost six o'clock when we got down the mountain. It started to drizzle. Shui Liqing got off the car first and trotted to Xie Qin. He took Xie Qin's umbrella with one hand and held it for him, and with the other hand he held Xie Qin's hand without hesitation.

Qin Zhang frowned, looking at the zombie with displeasure. When he looked again, he saw that his fiancée's eyes were fixed on the zombie's face.

"It's raining. Do you want to take shelter in our tent?"

"No thanks. We have our own RV."

"Ah, yes, you have space." Qin Zhang smiled helplessly.

Xie Qin followed Shui Liqing back to his team's car. The two scouts behind Qin Zhang stepped forward, their tone somewhat dissatisfied.

"Who is that zombie? Why is he holding our sister-in-law's hand?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Qinqin is still young and doesn't understand these things. Zombies have no brains, so they understand even less. Maybe it's just that the relationship is better." Qin Zhang said in a low voice, as if comforting himself.

Xie Qin got in the car and asked Shui Limu to drive about 200 meters back, so that they could see Qin Zhang and the others at a glance, but it was also a very safe distance for discussion.

After collecting the off-road vehicle, Xie Qin began to take things out of the space to set up the camp.

In addition to the four RVs, Xie Qinduo took out two containers, one for the dog to live in, and one equipped with tables, chairs and lights to serve as a temporary restaurant. The cars were still fan-shaped, but the canopy in the middle was replaced with two containers.

During dinner, everyone at the table lowered their heads and concentrated on eating, except for Miao Zhe who looked up at Xie Qin.

"Boss, why didn't you do anything this afternoon?"

"I can't move. That guy is too strong. I may not be able to defeat him. If he resists, I won't be able to use his power at all."

"so smart?"

"Well, level 4 and level 5 are not in the same league. It's not that I can't deal with him, but it's obviously a move that will hurt both sides, so I have nothing to do with it."

"So what are you going to do next?"

"Upgrade first, but this speed is too slow. I plan to find a chance to separate from these people. They are very strong, and there is no need for so many people to search for them one by one."

"What if we separate from them and they don't give us the crystal cores?" Xu Yangyang said vaguely while holding the chicken leg in his mouth.

"I followed them."

"You. Are alone." Shui Limu sat upright and looked at Xie Qin, questioning.

"Well, it would be better if I could find an opportunity to take his supernatural power sooner rather than later. And following them will ensure that all the crystal cores can be in my hands."

"Then where are we going?" When Xu Yangyang heard that she might have to separate from Xie Qin, the chicken leg no longer tasted good and she asked listlessly.

"Miao Zhe, give me the map."

Miao Zhe took out a tablet and handed it to Xie Qin. Xie Qin took a look at the map and drew a circle at the northernmost junction of the central and eastern regions.

"You start to the west and collect crystal cores of level two and above along the mountains to the north. Remember, safety comes first. If you encounter mutant plants that you cannot solve, just mark the location and leave. Don't take them by force. Then we will meet here." Xie Qin pointed to the place he had circled.

They all went north in batches from their current location. As long as the route was slightly inclined, they would meet in the north. Miao Zhe and Huang Yuanyuan had no problem. After dinner, they cleaned up and began to prepare for the team's action.

Xie Qin walked around in the space and selected two heavy-duty armed RVs.

This RV was purchased through the system, costing 130,000 points. I have never used it once. Although it looks bulky, it is relatively easy to drive among heavy-duty RVs. It has a large space, which is very convenient for them to store supplies and stay.

The car was released, and Xie Qin handed it over to Miao Zhe to distribute. Looking at this group of people, Miao Zhe was the one who could be used the most. Huang Yuanyuan didn't have any special abilities. Maybe she read too many books, so her mind was not very active and she didn't have a big picture. Not to mention Liu Bo, although he was already a fourth-level special ability user, he was still mentally handicapped. He could only communicate in a simple way.

Xie Ran and Xu Yangyang are both children who have not experienced much. As for the two brothers of the Shui family, they are not stupid, but because their brains are missing some human nerves, their thoughts are very simple.

So among these few people, only Miao Zhe was reassured. After giving everyone a clear explanation, he returned to his RV.

Once the route is determined, the biggest problem arises.

Doing ideological work, at this moment, there were four people standing in Xie Qin's RV: Xie Ran, Xu Yangyang, Shui Liqing, and Shui Limu.

There is only one purpose, which is not to be separated from myself.

"Mom told me to take good care of you." Xie Ran spoke first, followed by a series of echoes.

"I second the motion~"

"No. Separate."

"Ho~ho~"

"If everything goes well, we will be separated for ten days at most. Is that long? Besides, our goal is to reach level five. Only when I become stronger will you have a steady supply of resources. Do you understand?"

The four of them pursed their lips and stopped talking.

"Okay, go get ready, pack your things, tidy up your room, and we'll see you in ten days."

"I..." Xie Ran wanted to say something, but Xu Yangyang beside him pulled his clothes.

"Okay, listen to the boss. Hurry up and pack up and leave early tomorrow so that you can see the boss earlier."

"All right...."

After the two left, Xie Qin looked at the two brothers standing still and sighed helplessly. He then raised his hand and extended a hand to each of the two brothers.

The two of them naturally held Xie Qin's hands and slowly sat on both sides of Xie Qin.

"He likes you." Shui Limu said unhappily.

"Oh. You figured that out?"

"Huh?" Shui Liqing didn't understand, but seeing that Xie Qin was unhappy even after admitting it, he knew that there was a reason why he hated that barbaric-looking man.

"Don't worry, I don't like him. I just want his special ability. My favorites are only Amu and Aqing." Xie Qin stood up with a smile and said to the two brothers.

I have been with the brothers for three years, and they are still as good-looking as ever. I have grown up, but they haven't changed at all. They are still the same as when I first saw them.

They are not prettier than when I first saw them. After all, I really took good care of them and provided them with good food and drink. They are definitely prettier.

Xie Qin stretched out her hand, and the two of them hugged Xie Qin's soft waist together.

Two identical and handsome faces were just leaning against Xie Qin's sides, and Xie Qin rubbed the brothers' hair out of habit.

"Together. Sleep."

"Ho."

"Okay. Let's sleep together today."

After several people packed up, Xie Qin put away the RV and returned to their own rooms. Thinking that the Shui brothers would sleep with him, he also changed himself to a larger RV.

As the night deepened, it began to get quiet. Qin Zhang wanted to come to Xie Qin more than once, but he never found a legitimate reason. He wanted to send some food, but when he thought about Xie Qin, who was a space-based psychic, he was so well prepared, so he should not be short of these things.

After hesitating for a long time, thinking that they would go look for mutant plants together later, he did not come to find Xie Qin out of the blue.

Here, Xie Qinhe and Miao Zhe discussed their specific route before returning to their RV. Amu and Aqing were already sitting on the bed, playing games.

Xie Qin also went to wash up. After coming back, they both put away their phones and waited for Xie Qin. The bed in the RV was really not big. The 1.5-meter bed was just enough for two people to lie down.

But due to the sleeping habits of the three of them, Xie Qin liked to nestle in A Qing's arms the most. She had measured A Qing's temperature and found it was three degrees lower than A Mu's, one was 15 degrees and the other was 18 degrees. For someone like her who had fire abilities, that temperature felt comfortable against her face.

Amu behind him also leaned sideways against him, so the size was just right.

Xie Qin is a restless sleeper, but Amu and Aqing are the ones who are most accommodating to her. Over the years, there have been quite a few such times. Xie Qin feels comfortable with two cool pillows, which is why the relationship between the three of them is getting better and better.

Sleeping alone is comfortable, but sleeping with them is another kind of comfort.

The sun came out in the early morning, and the sunlight from the skylight just happened to shine in. Xie Qin opened his eyes drowsily, turned his head, and a shockingly handsome face caught his eyes, which was simply pleasing to his body and mind.

Thinking that he hadn't brushed his teeth, Xie Qin just raised his head and kissed the corner of Amu's lips, and then his waist was gently poked. Okay... The little jealous guy is also awake.

As soon as he turned around, the little jealous boy gave Xie Qin a heavy kiss on his mouth. Without brushing his teeth, Xie Qin didn't dare to open his mouth at all. He pushed Ah Qing and rubbed his face lovingly, and then fell into a comfortable embrace again.

Xie Qin leaned her head back, just touching Amu's neck, and spoke lazily.

"Protect everyone."

"Yeah." "Huh~"

"I'll miss you guys. See you in ten days."

"I miss you too." "Huh~"

I looked at the time. It was still early. It was not even six o'clock yet, but the sky was already bright. I used my mental power to detect movement in the camp in the distance.

"Get up and leave early."

Ah Qing, who was on the outside, got off the bed first and stretched out his hand to Xie Qin. Xie Qin smiled and lazily put himself into Ah Qing's arms. He skillfully wrapped his arms around Ah Qing's neck and lean waist, and let him take her to wash.

Amu was diligently making the bed. Xie Qin really enjoyed being with the two of them, not just because they were good-looking, but also because she felt relaxed from the bottom of her heart.

Breakfast was still in the container. The fire was turned on and Huang Yuanyuan, the only one with cooking experience, cooked dumplings. Although everything in the space was fresh, there was always a difference between the ready-made ones and the ones taken out of the space.

The few of them ate with great relish. While they were still eating, Qin Zhang came. He was the only one there. Out of courtesy, they invited Qin Zhang to have breakfast together, but he refused.

But he didn't leave. He just waited quietly for Xie Qin to finish eating before asking her when she would leave.

When Qin Zhang heard Xie Qin say that she would go with him alone and the others would go somewhere else, he was so happy that he could not express it in words. He was especially happy because those two zombies were no longer hanging around his little girl.

"You are going to the area under the jurisdiction of the Central Military District. Logically, their advance troops should have explored most of the area. I can help you find out the specific location."

"That's great. Thank you very much." Xie Qin said with a smile.

"No! You're welcome."

After saying that, Qin Zhang got up and left to go back to his camp to make a phone call. It was about ten minutes later that Qin Zhang came back.

"There are not many high-level mutant plants in the central region. They have already returned to the base yesterday. The information will be posted on the information platform at 12 noon today. You just need to pay attention to the location of the information broadcast by the radio."

"it is good."

Qin Zhang followed Xie Qin and happily watched others leave. The feeling in his heart was no less happy than when he had improved his own strength.

Xie Qin was too lazy to drive, so she just let Qin Zhang arrange it. Standing outside the back seat of the official SUV, she took a look at the cushion that looked hard, and then looked at Qin Zhang next to her.

"Will you sit in the back with me?"

"Yes, there are quite a few people. There must be at least four people in one car."

"No, it's too crowded, find a place to sit by yourself." Xie Qin rolled her eyes and started to act like a spoiled young lady. Recalling her previous attitude towards Qin Zhang, her tone became disdainful.

Qin Zhang was stunned at first. During the short time they spent together yesterday, he thought the little girl had grown up and become more mature. This brought him back to two years ago. She was still the same arrogant and noble young lady.

Qin Zhang glanced at the soldier who was already sitting in the passenger seat and motioned him to get out. Xie Qin looked in the corner of his eye and saw that there were already four people in the car in the direction he was going, and there was another person squeezed in the back seat.

The five cars were originally allocated, with four people in each car, for a total of twenty people. Now with Xie Qin added and another person occupying the back seat, two of the cars are crowded.

As soon as Xie Qin sat on it, she felt uncomfortable. It wasn't that it was really uncomfortable, but the cushion was a bit hard, and a rich lady like her would definitely complain.

He opened the car door and got out. Qin Zhang, who was about to get on the passenger seat, was also puzzled, but got out as well.

"What's wrong, Qinqin?"

"It's uncomfortable to sit hard." Xie Qin took out an off-road vehicle from his space and pointed at Qin Zhang.

"Drive for me!"

"Okay, okay, I'll open it for you." Qin Zhang thought Xie Qin was cute when she pointed at him angrily and bossed him around. His tone couldn't help but become more doting.

Even he himself didn't know that the person in front of him was clearly looking for trouble, but he just liked her inexplicably. Not only did he not feel annoyed, but he felt that she made things difficult for him because she cared about him. Otherwise, why didn't she make things difficult for others?

But if any other woman spoke to me in that tone, I would probably lose my temper.

Qin Zhang drove the car himself, with Xie Qin in the middle of the team. The others had more space because of Xie Qin's car. Xie Qin lay in the back seat and seemed to be sleeping, but in fact, most of the time, Xie Qin was in the space station analyzing the book about Ning Cheng as the protagonist, to see if he could find some information about subsequent natural disasters, mutant plants and animals, and zombies.
