199. Chapter 199 Mutations


Today is different from the past. In the past, there were no people with super powers, and all production relied on machinery.

Nowadays, people with superpowers can replace many production machines.

The key is that the shelter is built underground. If it relies purely on electricity, power supply will be a huge cost project.

For example, lighting, unless prescribed lights-off and lights-on times are set like the previous DJI shelters. Otherwise, the underground shelter will keep the lights on, which will consume a lot of energy.

It would be different if the flames of superpowers were used to ignite the fuel lamps extracted from zombie corpses.

The cost is controllable, and a fuel lamp can burn for at least several months without external force extinguishing it. Put a few more fuel lamps indoors, and the lighting effect is no worse than electric lamps.

Moreover, lighting the oil lamp can also play a certain role in drying and heating the cold and humid underground space.

The more Lin Qing thought about it, the more shocked he became.

She turned out to be superficial.

She suddenly remembered a sentence she had seen somewhere——

Some people ask why there were no machines in ancient times? Is it because people in ancient times were not smart enough? Or is it because the productivity of ancient people was particularly low? Is it possible that there were cultivators in ancient times who did not need to use machines at all? Because they have magic weapons...

so.

Are people with superpowers cultivators?

So... now that we have superpowers, do we still need production machines?

There is no need for production machines, so do we still need a production workshop dedicated to placing production machines?

People with superpowers can get the job done anywhere they want, even in their own living room!

Of course, except for those that produce some big guys.

For example, aircraft, artillery, tanks, etc. still need a large open space.

Lin Qing thought about it and couldn't help but laugh out loud. In the past, people were always worried that they would be eliminated by machines. Who would have thought that one day the situation would change and machines would also be eliminated. No wonder some people say that the end of science is metaphysics...

Seeing her smile, Shi Zhongjun couldn't help but laugh too.

Although I don’t know why she is smiling.

But he knew that she must have figured it out.

Lin Qing is really very spiritual and can make things right with just a few clicks.

Shi Zhongjun withdrew his admiring gaze, "So, the issue we have to consider now is that the number of superpowers is limited. Facing the current survival challenges, should we use superpowers in production or in combat? This is critical.”

Lin Qing and Tao Shanqing nodded.

However, Lin Qing is greedy.

"Is there a possibility that we can have both?" Lin Qing blinked.

Shi Zhongjun understood, "Are you planning to imitate Zhu Yuanzhang, a soldier who can fight when he is busy and plow the land when he is free?"

Lin Qing snapped her fingers and gave Shi Zhongjun a "you know me" look.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Tao Shanqing: "..." It feels like his presence is a bit redundant.

So, why is he looking for abuse here?

The last three people discussed and decided to temporarily plan out seven major areas: military area, scientific research area, shop trading and entertainment area, dormitory area, education and training area, medical area, and planting area.

Among them, the design of the government affairs center and mission center are placed in the Dongkou area.

"Other people's mission centers and government affairs centers are built in the inner city. Why should we put the government affairs center and mission center on the cave entrance level? If other missionaries come to us to submit missions and take away all our supplies Isn’t it a loss?” Tao Shanqing was a little confused.

Lin Qing knew what Tao Shanqing meant. The other missionaries he mentioned mainly meant the missionaries from DJI.

The location of the new shelter is even more remote than that of Dajiang. Who else would come here except the refugees from Dajiang Shelter?

"Are you worried that the DJI missionaries who came to us to borrow materials might not come back later?" Lin Qing smiled.

"Now DJI is controlled by the saints, and the granary has been sealed. The only supplies are tightly controlled by the believers. How can we repay them with supplies?" Tao Shanqing said.

"Don't worry, I have a way to get it back."

Is Lin Qing such a good person? She wouldn't use her own supplies to feed other workers.

It was purely because she had taken away most of the supplies in DJI's granary. The investigation team would know about this sooner or later.

Of course, if Lin Qing secretly obtained this batch of materials, no one would be able to find out anything, and Yan Wei would never reveal it to her.

But doing so will only hurt Yan Wei in the end. After all, he was guilty of dereliction of duty by allowing Lin Qing to steal supplies.

In this case, it would be better for her to directly express her feelings and confess the matter.

In this way, if the application for a new shelter is approved by the higher authorities, the task of rescuing DJI workers will naturally fall on the new shelter.

"Anyway, if we can't escape, we might as well move the mission center and government affairs center to the outer city. We don't want believers to have the opportunity to sneak into the inner city and make our new home a mess," Lin Qing said.

Tao Shanqing thought it made sense, so he said nothing more.

The next design matter has nothing to do with Lin Qing.

So Lin Qing could finally lie down on the moon chair, eating and drinking while practicing her powers.

Shi Zhongjun told her the secret of how to condense water polo into ice cubes, but feeling the existence and movement of particles can only be felt but cannot be expressed in words, so whenever Lin Qing had free time during this period, she would feel and explore by herself.

But I didn't expect that I couldn't condense the water ball into ice.

Instead, it was hit by accident. The constant friction turned the water ball into a hot water ball - turning it into a hot water ball...

Lin Qing blinked, it was outrageous.

I decisively made myself a pot of tea and some instant noodles to try.

It’s okay if you don’t try it, give it a try!

The water condensed by this special ability makes tea, and it is actually sweeter than mountain spring water!

Lin Qing was happily drinking tea and eating instant noodles, thinking that she would finally be able to take a hot bath for herself at night!

Mmm, it smells so good!

Suddenly he came to his senses and found that both Shi Zhongjun and Tao Shanqing were looking at him.

"You also want to eat instant noodles? Can I make one for you?"

Tao Shanqing opened his mouth and couldn't say anything for a long time.

Shi Zhongjun was relatively calm and asked strangely, "When did you boil the hot water?"

"Oh, this? I just developed a new skill by accident while playing around."

As he spoke, Lin Qing showed them how to make a hot water balloon.

The water polo is still steaming out...

Tao Shanqing had a look of shock on his face, "You were just playing around, and you accidentally developed a new skill?"

Frog fun!

Frog fun!

So perverted?

"I'm just asking, do you know this is a type of mutant power?" Tao Shanqing asked.

"Ah? Does this count as a mutant power? Isn't this just another application of the power?" Lin Qing was a little confused.

She naturally knows about mutation powers.

In the original book, in the later period, a special organization was set up to research and develop applications of supernatural powers, and the heroine was a member of it. That's why Lin Qing read the book and was able to implement that set for training early.

Among them, the lifelong dream of all members participating in the research is to awaken new mutant powers through later research and development.

For example, the mutant ability of water-type abilities - ice-type abilities.

But this seems to be related to talent.

Unless one is born with awakening, it is absolutely impossible to develop it later. It's like there is a door there. You see it, and you know that when you push it open, you will enter a new world, but you can't touch it.

So...Lin Qing pushed open the door inexplicably? Needless to say, she was also confused.

"Woo~" Tao Shanqing suddenly cried sadly, "I knew you were a pervert too! Because perverts usually only play with perverts, not to mention that you are the person Shi Zhongjun likes that pervert, how could you be a normal person! ”

Lin Qing: "..."

Shi Zhongjun: "..."

That's a compliment, isn't it?

Lin Qing was speechless, "You can scold Shi Zhongjun, after all, who has multiple powers as soon as he awakens? But if you scold me, I don't agree. I'm just a miserable ordinary person."


Tao Shanqing hehehe, "Give me a way to survive, sister! Please! Can ordinary people suddenly awaken mutant powers just for fun?"

Lin Qing: "..."

Lin Qing blinked, so she also has some talents and skills?

Hey!

Let's just say, which time traveler would rush into the streets like her, except for having money and not even a golden finger.

It turns out that it's not that she wasn't equipped with it, but that the talent for cultivating supernatural powers is easily invisible!

With that said, she was relieved.

"Ahem." Lin Qing changed the topic sheepishly, "Okay, let's not talk about those digressions. What a fuss. Have you drawn the design? You still have time to eat my free time."

Look at that disapproving little look.

Tao Shanqing: "..." I am so angry that I don't want to live anymore.

Shi Zhongjun curled his lips and said, "It's done. Take a look. Is there anything else you want to add?"

Now it was Lin Qing's turn to be surprised, "So fast? The design drawings of such a large shelter were produced in less than two hours?"

You are the perverts.

Tao Shanqing cursed in his heart. That was because they had participated in the construction of hundreds of shelters, and there were modules in the database that could be applied, as well as artificial intelligence assistance. All they have to do is find loopholes, refine and adjust the design, can they not hurry up?

If it weren't for someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder, two hours would have been very slow!

never mind.

I don’t want to talk to a gifted dog, I feel envious and jealous, and I want to be quiet.

Shi Zhongjun was very patient with Lin Qing. He opened the digital sandbox and introduced Lin Qing in detail.

"What do you think? If there is no problem, we can arrange to start construction." Shi Zhongjun said softly.

Tao Shanqing also looked at Lin Qing eagerly.

Although in Lin Qing's heart, he regarded the two as allies, they were all on equal footing, but their division of labor was different.

Little did they know that the two of them always focused on her.

I had to ask her everything, and she agreed before starting to try it.

The design of the new shelter is like this, and the name of the new shelter is also like this.

Lin Qing: "...I don't understand this. Just make your decision. You don't need to ask my opinion."

"How can that be done? You are the boss. Of course, you have to check it and nod before we can start the work." Tao Shanqing said seriously even though he was sour.

Lin Qing: "..."

Is she usually too fierce?

She felt that besides fighting fiercely, she had no other abilities. How can one be so virtuous...

The key is, she doesn’t want to be the boss either!

Being the boss of Yali Mountain is not something you can do casually. She just wants to show off her power!

……

On the scorched earth, the convoy went deeper and deeper.

The zombie beasts encountered along the way became more and more frequent. Although Lu Zhenhua led the mechanical army to clean them up quickly, the refugees were still more and more worried.

"Brother Xiaole, another private car left the team secretly."

Lingzhu's quiet voice came from the earphones.

Xiao Le opened the surveillance video sent back by the drone. He recognized the license plate number. There was a family of five in the car, the couple with two little girls and an old man.

Although this family is not a believer, the male owner of the car was very close to a female believer before. This is the fourth time that the car has left the group without permission.

Xiao Le and Qiu Rongfei persuaded him to come back the first two times.

This time I left within a day before leaving again.

Xiao Le and Qiu Rongfei looked at each other.

"Forget it, good words can't persuade the damn ghost." Qiu Rongfei said.

Xiao Le said with a gloomy face, "But there are two little girls in that car."

Lingzhu had talked to them before, and the two children were very repulsive about going back to DJI. But their parents insisted on going back and they had no choice.

"Damn it. Two children are going to be killed by their parents. Why should they make decisions for their children? Why should they be so self-righteous that they take their children back to die?" Xiao Le felt very unhappy.

He didn't know why he was so angry.

Probably thinking of his sister's experience when she was young.

In this world, not every parent loves their children.

His sister's parents had arranged all her paths since she was a child. She had been treated as a money-making tool since she was a child. The little princess who looked glamorous on the surface was actually just a puppet without a soul.

If his sister hadn't finally figured it out and angrily got rid of the blood-sucking family, she still wouldn't be in a good state of being exploited.

"But what can we do? Those are their parents. If we force the child to stay, we might be regarded as evil people." Qiu Rongfei said.

Xiao Le pursed his lips.

He also knew this, so he became even more angry.

If the two children were willing to leave with their parents, there was nothing he could do. Even if he knew that the car would end up in DJI, the hostess and the two little girls would most likely become vessels for saints, there was nothing they could do.

Perhaps this feeling of powerlessness is what makes people most angry.

"Oh my God!" Qiu Rongfei suddenly pointed at the drone display and exclaimed, "Those two children jumped out of the car! They are running in the direction of the motorcade!"

Xiao Le glanced at the screen, and before his mind could turn around, he immediately turned the steering wheel and stepped on the accelerator to run towards the private car.

"Xiao Le, why are you going?" Wang Hao's surprised voice came from the intercom.

"We're going to pick up someone, you go first."

"Would you like to stop and wait for you?" Wang Hao also saw ghosts.

"No, I can catch up with you."

"Okay, I'll send you the location."

Xiao Le didn't understand why he was so impulsive. Maybe he thought the determination in the girl's eyes was too familiar when she jumped out of the car and ran with her sister.

Maybe it was because when she saw the private car turning around and chasing after her, her eyes were filled with despair and sadness, tears streaming down her face unknowingly, but she still turned around, picked up her sister and ran away with gritted teeth, which was so touching.

However.

The sisters were soon overtaken by a private car.

The male owner angrily came down from the cockpit, pointed at the girl and cursed, and forcefully dragged the two sisters into the car with a ferocious expression.

Seeing the miserable cries of the two sisters on the screen, both Xiao Le and Qiu Rongfei looked very ugly.

Unfortunately, he couldn't make it.

Suddenly, the male host looked ahead in horror.
