Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies-Chapter 1073: Enhanced Abilities

Chapter 1073: Enhanced Abilities

Qin Qigong paused for a few seconds.

Then he said to Zhu Zheng, "We don't know what that thing is either. But I can tell you, back when we found the Divine Source in the Qinling Mountains' dragon vein, that place has now become a complete forbidden zone."

"Even now, we haven't managed to clean up the trouble there."

"Where the Divine Source appears, there exists great terror. Do not touch it recklessly!"

Zhu Zheng narrowed his eyes, pondered for a long while, and then said leisurely, "Hmm, I understand. But fortunately, this time the place where the Divine Source was discovered is overseas. Even if there is danger, it won't affect the Huaxu Kingdom's mainland."

Qin Qigong said, "I heard that your region's [Chaos] obtained the Divine Source, and now he's already an Epsilon-level superhuman?"

Zhu Zheng replied, "That's right, it's him."

Qin Qigong said, "That's quite good as well. You all indeed need to bolster your combat strength."

The call ended here. Qin Qigong didn't continue to inquire about the mission details, nor did he hold the Jiangnan Region and the East Sea Region accountable for not reporting it.

At this point, everyone has a tacit understanding. Everyone urgently hopes to enhance their own power.

As for Zhu Zheng, he just sneered repeatedly at Qin Qigong's words, not taking them to heart at all.

"Even if there is the greatest terror, your Shengjing Region gained immense benefits from the discovery in the Qinling Mountains."

"Why can you do it, but we cannot? If I were truly scared off by your few words, I wouldn't be Zhu Zheng!"

...

Zhang Yi planned to go to Blizzard City tomorrow.

He wanted to personally see what that Zhu Yu was really like, to settle a lingering concern in his heart.

At this time, everyone at home was busy absorbing the source sprites to enhance their own superhuman ability index.

Zhang Yi didn't call anyone, just began carefully preparing his equipment himself.

For this trip to Blizzard City, he was being extremely cautious.

Although the probability was low, he still had to avoid Zhu Zheng playing tricks on him. In the unlikely event that Zhu Yu had already reached Epsilon-level, he couldn't completely rule out the risk of Zhu Zheng wanting to eliminate him.

After the Apocalypse, the reason Zhang Yi could survive until now was entirely due to his caution and his pessimistic mindset of not trusting anyone.

In the evening, Zhou Ke'er and Yang Siya came to Zhang Yi's room to chat with him.

After absorbing the source sprites, both of their powers had been enhanced.

As support-type superhumans, they didn't need to deliberately train anything specific. As long as the scope of their abilities increased, that was sufficient.

"Zhang Yi, I have a new ability now. Come over and try it."

Zhou Ke'er, wearing a blue velvet nightgown, knelt on the bed and patted her firm thigh with a smile.

She practiced yoga every day and often played ball games with Yang Siya and the others, so her body proportions were very well-balanced.

Her figure was neither too fat nor too thin, with a perfect ratio of fat to muscle.

Because Zhang Yi liked slightly fuller figures, she had even deliberately used her [Doctor] ability to adjust her fat ratio.

Zhang Yi lay down on her lap, enjoying the soft and warm pillow of her thighs.

"Oh? Looks like there's a pleasant surprise."

Zhang Yi said with a smile.

Zhou Ke'er extended her slender, jade-like hands, placed them on Zhang Yi's head, and began a gentle massage.

Something miraculous happened.

As her hands stroked Zhang Yi's head, he felt his tense emotions relax.

He was a pessimist, so he always liked to consider many possibilities. It was rare for him to be able to relax his mind on ordinary days.

But as Zhou Ke'er's hands pressed on his head and slowly moved across his scalp, they made him briefly forget all his troubles. His whole being attained a happiness akin to flying on clouds.

"This is an ability I specifically trained for you!"

Zhou Ke'er whispered softly, "It's called Dopamine Slow Release. It can help you relax. Zhang Yi, you're usually too tired. You also need to relax properly occasionally. It's very helpful for both your body and mind."

Zhang Yi made an "Mhm" sound, feeling so comfortable he didn't want to say a single word, just wanting to immerse himself in this tranquility.

Zhou Ke'er's hands, glowing with a soft, gentle light, slowly moved from his head down his body.

The accumulated negative substances within Zhang Yi's body were completely dispersed.

Even some negative substances that Zhang Yi himself hadn't noticed were all eliminated.

During the days Zhang Yi wasn't at home, everyone had been working hard to improve their own abilities, so as not to hold Zhang Yi back.

As a doctor, Zhou Ke'er was also considering what she, who couldn't go to the battlefield, could do for Zhang Yi.

This special massage technique could allow Zhang Yi's body and mind to relax completely, restoring his physical condition to its most perfect state.

There were even some special auxiliary abilities related to men, which would be verified later.

Although it couldn't turn an ordinary person's body into a superhuman's, it could definitely bring a person's body to its optimal state.

This kind of thing, seemingly just a support ability, actually had a very significant effect.

Because for someone like Zhang Yi, who often goes out to perform high-intensity missions, whether it's mental stress or hidden physical injuries, they are not easily detected.

Accumulated over time, they become major problems, either erupting all at once when one gets older.

What Zhou Ke'er was doing wasn't easy at all; it required extremely precise control of her ability.

But when she saw Zhang Yi's relaxed, baby-like expression, she smiled with satisfaction.

Seeing this, Yang Siya reached out, took out some pastries she had made, then picked one up with two fingers and brought it to Zhang Yi's mouth.

"Zhang Yi, this is a pastry I just learned to make recently. Try it."

Zhang Yi opened his mouth and ate the pastry. It was soft, fragrant, and glutinous in his mouth.

After swallowing it, he couldn't help but praise, "Siya, your culinary skills are getting better and better!"

Yang Siya smiled until her eyes narrowed into slits. "I'm glad you like it. Then I'll learn more new varieties in the future, trying my best to let you eat something different every day."

Receiving Zhang Yi's praise was her greatest happiness.

Yang Siya was that typical type of girl from a modest family. After the Apocalypse, she couldn't do much else, so she focused all her attention on Zhang Yi.

It had a rather strong feeling of "the husband being the wife's guiding principle."

But she never tired of it.

It wasn't that she lacked ambition and only knew how to depend on a man.

It was that everyone's abilities were different, so one needed to understand where their own strengths lay and then apply them appropriately.

Like this, she and Zhou Haimei felt they were living very happily.

The saying goes, "A coquettish woman has the best fate." This is probably a principle that a straightforward woman like Liang Yue would find hard to understand.

The night passed without words, long and drawn-out. The three of them, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, had many things they wanted to share, all conveyed in silence.
