The most ruthless person in the apocalypse

Chapter 1224 Even Without Wind, Waves Rise

"Not a good thing?"

Wang Xin frowned and muttered, "Just like you said, it can help us improve our strength and also serve as a lighting device. It is a bit mysterious, but so far there is no sign of it causing trouble. We finally managed to get it back, so we can't just deal with it like that."

"Besides, if there's really something wrong with this thing, I think it doesn't matter where it is..."

"Indeed, many brothers have enjoyed its benefits. Sigh, maybe I'm overthinking it. Come on, let's continue eating meat. There are still two pieces left, let's roast them together. This time I'll try making them half-cooked."

Pan Guoliang shook his head and said no more. He was afraid that these rumors would get out and make things worse, so he insisted on not spreading them.

"Grill, then we'll practice more after we eat. Hmm?"

Wang Xin nodded, and just as he sat down to grab some cumin powder from the plastic bag and sprinkle it on his steak, he suddenly felt a change in the intensity of the light around him!
"Damn, it gets all excited when you mention it?"

Pan Guoliang looked surprised. The light emitted by the large sphere in the distance was noticeably brighter than before. The difference was small, but enough for the human eye to perceive the change!

"We need to report this to the camp!"

After saying this, Pan Guoliang took the walkie-talkie from his chest: "Hello, this is Qincheng Port. This is Pan Guoliang. Please respond if you hear me."

Wang Xin felt that Pan Guoliang was being overly nervous and making a mountain out of a molehill, but he also knew in his heart that he should report the situation to the camp immediately, especially now that communication was back on.

Less than five seconds later, static appeared on the walkie-talkie, followed by a voice: "Old Pan, what's the problem?"

"Brother Su, just now, less than a minute ago, the ball got a little brighter! (Wang Xin: And the waves too!) Yes, Brother Su, and the waves are a little stronger than during the day. We're standing on the dock, and water is splashing up!"

After being reminded by Wang Xin, Pan Guoliang also reported the issue of the waves back to his team.

After finishing his exercise, Zhang Su was just drifting off to sleep when he heard Pan Guoliang's message. Putting aside the fact that the waves were getting bigger, the changes in the intensity of the large ball of light made him feel unusual. How could this timing coincide so closely with his sleep?
"Okay, I got it. You two keep recording the status of the light sphere and see if there are any further changes. Don't worry about the waves for now, just be careful."

"Okay, got it!"

After the call ended, Pan Guoliang shrugged at Wang Xin and said, "Let's split it up. Which do you want to work the first half of the night or the second half?"

……

"The light sphere is acting strangely again?"

On the bed, Zheng Xinyu was also woken up and asked curiously.

"Yeah, it suddenly got a little brighter for no reason. Don't think about it, just go to sleep."

After comforting Zheng Xinyu, Zhang Su closed his eyes and fell asleep again. He was too lazy to think about it anymore, and even if he racked his brains, he couldn't figure it out. He might as well find the answer in his dreams.

He didn't know how long it took to fall asleep, but when Zhang Su opened his eyes again, he had successfully returned to that strange space.

"The last page of the comic book, is it? It's the same content every day? How about we start from the beginning? Let me read the previous pages again..."

Zhang Su stared at the motionless ball of light in the distance, speechless and helpless.

"Fine, I'll stick with you today!"

Unable to use Professor Zong's enhancement method, no problem. Zhang Su used the remote stopping technique and began practicing other things...

He switched between footwork, body movements, and palm techniques, the limited space unable to hinder him, and his mind calmed down as he practiced. But just as he was engrossed in it, a flicker suddenly appeared on his damaged, icy heart. "This is definitely not a dream!"

Zhang Su stood still, his eyes fixed intently on the ball of light. The absorption of energy had essentially confirmed that he was receiving light, and the repair of his Frozen Heart further confirmed this!
"I don't understand!"

Unfortunately, this conclusion was meaningless to Zhang Su; it was like clearing away one layer of fog only to find an even thicker fog in front of him...

Zhang Su was shocked for a moment, but quickly calmed down; his ability to accept things was already very strong.

At the same time, as if sensing something, the light sphere dimmed the light in the space where Zhang Su was, by about 30 percent.

"What do you mean? You discovered the repair for the Frozen Heart, but now you're unhappy about it?"

Just as I thought that, the light came back on...

Ignoring these changes, since the dream didn't bounce him back to reality, he'll continue practicing. What's the big deal if he can't actively absorb the energy? It can still passively repair his frozen heart, which is a good thing!
The passage of time was blurry. Zhang Su was immersed in improving his Remote Stopping Step and Floating Body Technique when suddenly a "beep beep beep, beep beep beep" sound came from the sky...

"This is... Holy crap, isn't that the alarm clock on my watch going off? It's 6:30!"

Zhang Su stopped what he was doing and looked up at the sky. The ball of light followed him like a shadow, while the sound drifted around, coming from all directions, making it impossible to tell where it was coming from.

? ?
Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't have to wait a whole night to be kicked back to reality from his dream. What's wrong with him today? The alarm clock has already rung, but he's still in the dream world!
"Honey? Honey, what's wrong with you... Wake up, oh my god, what happened?"

Shortly after the alarm rang, a clear, ethereal female voice echoed throughout the space. Zhang Su recognized the voice as belonging to Zhong Xiaoshan and was extremely anxious.

"Does that mean you're keeping me trapped here, not letting me wake up?"

Zhang Su instantly understood the purpose of the light sphere. He bit his cheek and said, "Fine, if you won't let me leave, then I won't leave. Come on."

Having said that, he plopped down and began to circulate the strengthening technique with his five hearts facing upwards.

call!
"Ah... honey, what's wrong? Are you feeling better?"

Zhong Xiaoshan sat on the edge of the bed, nervously getting dressed, when she suddenly felt the bed shake. Turning around, she saw Zhang Su wake up and sit up!

"I had a dream, it's nothing now."

Zhang Su was perfectly awake, not at all like someone who had just woken up.

"I was so scared! I was just about to go find Xinyu, and I don't know what to do."

Zhong Xiaoshan patted her heaving chest and let out a big sigh of relief.

Such a momentous event as the leader's fainting could not possibly be communicated via walkie-talkie; there was a significant risk in knowing about it even if only one more person did. Her first thought was to call the person she trusted most.

"Xiaoshan, you're a medical professional, the deputy leader of the medical team. If something happens to me, instead of trying to save me, you're going to go find Xinyu?"

Zhang Su reached out and patted Zhong Xiaoshan on the back, easing the tension with a joke.

Zhong Xiaoshan shook her head and said, "You have no idea how scary you looked before. Your eyelids were twitching rapidly, you kept rolling your eyes, and your lips were twitching, like you were possessed... You must have had a terrible dream, right?"

She touched Zhang Su's cheek with a touch of heartache. The man who was the anchor of Tianma Island, who could remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, was frightened in his dream. What a terrifying scene that must have been.
