129: Chapter 129 Pills are a good thing

President followed Qi Yin to the side of the truck. The truck door opened, and he used a flashlight to shine inside; it was packed full of various supplies.

Especially those two truckloads of Constant Temperature Suits; President's eyes lit up, and the wrinkles on his face were deep enough to trap a fly.

“Good, good, good, wonderful! Now our base's defensive facilities are sorted. Yin Yin, you've done a great service!”

He thought that he had to give this girl an award later and keep her in the base. If such a talent ran off to another base, where would he go to cry?

Now that the goods had arrived, the rest had nothing to do with Qi Yin. President would naturally find people to unload them. In the meantime, she wanted to check on the progress of the Material Sales System's pipeline.

After finishing the work, President found Qi Yin and pulled her aside, rubbing his hands together cheerfully.

“Settling the bill, settling the bill. You helped me get the Constant Temperature Suits, and I'm an old man of my word.”

As he spoke, he mysteriously pulled out a small cart from behind him, which held a large bag and a much smaller-looking box arranged neatly.

“I have many first-level crystal cores here, and the Second-level ones are slightly fewer. How about this: eight thousand of the suits will be settled with first-level crystal cores, totaling 1.6 million pieces, and the other two thousand will be settled with second-level crystal cores, totaling 200,000 pieces.”

Qi Yin took a rough look and found that the number of crystal cores in the bag should be more than what he said.

“The extra ones can be considered my advance deposit. If you have any good things here in the future, you must think of me first. For example, the fresh vegetables and fruits from yesterday—shouldn't Old Ye get a taste first?”

Qi Yin scanned with her Spiritual power and quickly calculated in her mind; it was indeed as he said, more rather than less.

The President was worthy of being the President—he acted generously and didn't haggle over small things. She liked dealing with such people.

“President is too kind. Then, here's to our happy cooperation!”

She handed the crystal cores to Meng Xichi to store away, her heart already blooming with joy.

Such a large sum of crystal cores was enough for the team to consume for a while, and there was no need to worry about the improvement of those two energy black holes, Li Shi and Li Yun.

After the two left, the smile on President's face faded, and he fell into deep thought while staring at their departing figures.

With such a massive amount of supplies, even accounting for the time it took to move them, Qi Yin had gone out in the morning and had everything in place for him by evening. He didn't believe she hadn't been prepared long ago.

“President, don't you think this friend of Si Nian's has somewhat extraordinary means?”

President put his hands behind his back and chuckled. “Means? Isn't it good to have extraordinary means? As long as she's one of ours, isn't it better if she's powerful?”

He only hoped that kid Si Nian had the ability to keep her here.

Otherwise, even if he had to risk his old bones, he would have to give him a beating.

Throughout the day, Qi Yin's group and Xiao Sinian's subordinates had successfully hit it off like old friends who hadn't seen each other in a long time. Even after returning to the villa, everyone was reluctant to leave and insisted on sparring with her people.

She wasn't one to spoil the fun, so she just let them go wild and had the two chefs, Chen Quan and Lu Yanxiu, prepare plenty of good food and drink.

The power of two gourmet meals a day was a grand gesture in these times of scarcity. It almost made people switch sides on the spot—well, it was pretty close to that anyway.

“Waaaah, Uncle Chen, your cooking is so delicious. Can I come over to scrounge for food in the future?”

A group of youngsters hugged Chen Quan's legs, unwilling to leave, making him not know whether to laugh or cry. It was just a meal, wasn't it?

“If Yin Yin and your boss agree, you can come anytime.”

“Ah...” The young people wilted.

It was hard to say about Sister Yin, but their boss would most likely not agree.

Their dream of scrounging for food had collapsed.

Qi Yin couldn't help but find it funny; most of Xiao Sinian's subordinates were quite genuine.

“It's about time. Thank you for your hard work today. If you want to play, I still have many good programs here. Shall we play together again in the future?”

The youngsters then cheered: “Woohoo! Long live Sister Yin!”

After sending off the crowd, the large villa suddenly became quiet.

“By the way, Uncle Wang, how are Brother Yan Xiu and Qian Dong doing?”

Calculating the time, they should be waking up soon.

Wang Tianyu put down his teacup and sighed.

“Sigh, the scratches from the zombies have already healed, but for some reason, they are still unconscious. Moreover, they look like they're in agonizing pain, drenched in sweat like water ghosts. Fearing they might hurt themselves, I had them tied up.”

Unexpectedly, even after he said this, Qi Yin before him had a mysterious look and was even in the mood to drink coffee.

“Sister Yin, do you know what's going on?” Wang Tianyu guessed.

Qi Yin chuckled. “Remember the pill I gave you before the surgery?”

That pill is a good thing, though it just makes one feel a bit of pain.

Wang Tianyu was puzzled. “I remember. Could their reaction be related to the pill?”

“Yes. Anyway, the process of wound healing involves going through pain. Taking my pill also allows them to awaken a second Supernatural Ability, so a little more pain doesn't matter.”

This is called killing two birds with one stone—the wounds are healed, and they gain an extra life-saving Supernatural Ability. Why not? Besides, those two pills cost her 400 first-level crystal cores.”

She really was a beautiful, generous, and very qualified boss.

“You mean, after they wake up, they can awaken another Supernatural Ability on top of their original one?”

One must know that it's not easy to upgrade even one type of Supernatural Ability, and dual-system Ability Users are even rarer. These two guys were really lucky to meet a miraculous person like Sister Yin.

He suddenly stopped feeling sorry for Lu Yanxiu and Qian Dong and was even a bit envious. Sigh, let them suffer the pain.

Seeing through his thoughts, Qi Yin put down her coffee with a serious expression. “Uncle Wang, one Supernatural Ability is enough. If it weren't for their injuries this time, I wouldn't have given them that pill.”

She often soaked in spiritual spring water and had the support of her space, so her constitution was naturally different from theirs.

If a normal person took that pill, they might actually die from the pain.

Wang Tianyu naturally understood this logic; otherwise, given how Qi Yin protected them like a mother hen, she would have brought out the good stuff long ago.

In the end, she was just considering too much for them.

“Don't worry, Sister Yin. I'm already worried that one Supernatural Ability isn't upgrading fast enough. If another one comes, I won't be able to handle it.”

It was best that he could figure it out himself; otherwise, it would have been hard for her to explain.

As they were speaking, a loud bang suddenly came from Lu Yanxiu and Qian Dong's room, sounding like a vase smashing against the wall.

Their expressions turned solemn, and they stood up and ran straight over.

When Qi Yin kicked the door open, Lu Yanxiu was standing behind it with a wide grin, which, combined with his pale face, made him look just like the White Impermanence from the underworld, nearly giving her a fright.

Good news: He's fine!

Bad news: She's angry!

With one punch, a huge black eye appeared on Lu Yanxiu's fair face.

Qian Dong, who had just woken up and was confused: “...”
