Kato Megumi wants to learn magic
Page 245
Not to mention that it was difficult to walk in the swamp, but the densely packed earth dragons that were half a meter thick and four or five meters long like pythons were not something they could deal with.
So now if we want to find a way out and contact the outside world, we can only rely on the East.
The east is Arashiyama City, where most people escaped from. However, this Arashiyama City is also an obstacle. Of course, it is not a strange crisis like other ones. The obstacle of Arashiyama City is just zombies.
There are so many zombies in a city, so it is very difficult to open up a road, especially if you are not careful you will attract a large wave of zombies. This task is full of dangers.
However, we have to do nothing. If we don't open up a way out for the shelter to the outside world, the shelter will inevitably fall into isolation, which is not good for the shelter's situation.
Originally, if you were to be careful and open up little by little, it would be possible to open up a road to the outside world. However, the difficulty lies in the fact that there is an insurmountable obstacle in Lanshan City, which is a level 4 zombie.
Chenxi, who had discovered those zombies, had to go through a lot of hardships to escape, and even lost a small number of manpower.
It was also because of this that the Dawn Team, which had already won the support of a large number of people, allowed the Crimson Moon Team to gain the upper hand.
After all, this is where the conflict between Chenxi and Zhang Shao lies.
Chenxi wanted to find a way out and paid a lot of price for it. She wanted to find a way to survive for the ordinary people in the shelter, because she knew that the food in the shelter was not enough to supply everyone in the shelter. Once the surrounding supplies were searched, most of the ordinary people in the shelter would starve to death.
However, Zhang Shao's idea was different from Chenxi's. He felt that Chenxi was just womanizing. The end of the world had come and it was the law of the jungle. Why should they, the people with special abilities, go through so much trouble to find a way out while ordinary people could stay safely in the shelter?
If there is not enough food, then we will reduce the number of people. Then the ordinary people will have to rely on who has the best luck.
It is obvious that the two people have different opinions, and conflicts arise naturally.
Of course, those who can survive the doomsday are not saints with a guilty conscience. Chenxi wants to find a way out not only for the shelter, but also for himself and the way out of the shelter.
Although population is a burden to the shelter, it is also an advantage. The more people there are, the greater the chance of awakening the mutants, and the stronger the shelter will be.
Furthermore, if they just don't take the initiative, they might never have another chance. They are only at level three in superpowers now, but the zombies are already at level four. It can be seen that the other party is growing faster than them, the superpower users. How can Chenxi not be worried?
And it's not just a food problem, there are many other problems as well. The development of a force cannot be separated from various raw materials.
Clothes, weapons, building materials, generators, and all kinds of things. These cannot be obtained by simply searching around them, but must be collected from outside and exchanged with other forces.
If they don't open up this road, there is only one result waiting for them, that is, the lambs will be surrounded by a group of hungry wolves and can only wait for death.
It was Chenxi who took the initiative to go to Arashiyama because she discovered that there seemed to be a treasure in Arashiyama that could improve the level of supernatural powers. This was discovered by her teammates by accident.
She wanted to use this treasure to improve her strength and upgrade to the fourth-level supernatural power as soon as possible, so that she would be able to deal with the fourth-level zombies in Lanshan City.
Who could have imagined that such an accident would occur, and that they would be attacked by an unidentified object and lose a large number of combat forces.
At that time, she felt like the sky was falling.
Speaking of which... Miss Kato...
"Ms. Kato, you are from outside, right? Do you already have a fourth-level supernatural power?"
Seeing Chenxi suddenly ask herself this, Kato Hui keenly felt that there was something else the team was saying, so she did not answer easily and could only speak vaguely.
"I use magic, not sorcery. There is no level of supernatural power, and it is different from your level classification."
Ah, is this what a unique ability is like? Not being able to sense your own level?
"So you are from outside? Where are you from?"
"Well, why are you asking that?"
Chen Xi recalled the feeling that the attack just now gave him. Although it was at level three in strength, it was far from making him feel powerless. The opponent should not be at level four. Although a little disappointed, Chen Xi still explained.
"It's like this. The shelter is not in a good situation right now. It's surrounded by..."
After Chenxi's understanding, Kato suddenly realized that the other party thought that he had come through the city and was capable of dealing with the fourth-level zombie.
"I'm sorry, I haven't been to Arashiyama City. Since the apocalypse, I've been... wandering around my home. I ran out of food, and I heard there was a base here, so I rushed here."
Zombie World: Chapter 522 Chapter Discussion
The little guy next to him opened his eyes wide and watched Kato Megumi talking nonsense. Then he thought of something, blinked and said nothing.
After hearing this answer, Chenxi guessed that Kato Megumi was someone nearby, but he was still a little disappointed when he heard the other party say that.
"That's it..."
Although he was a little disappointed, Chenxi quickly recovered his composure when he thought about picking up a third-level mutant with the same combat power for free.
"Then, if the superpower disappears, toxins will accumulate. According to what you said, it is urgent to defeat that guy. In this case, we should fight quickly. How about you meet up with our team tomorrow and go to destroy that guy?"
"Although it's a bit urgent, with Ms. Kato joining us, I'm sure everything will go much more smoothly."
Kato Megumi understood Chenxi's urgency very well. After thinking about it, she thought that since the other party could escape, the real combat power of that thing must not be at the fourth level. Even if it was, with her real strength, there should be no danger.
You have to know that the attack I just condensed was only one-fifth of her real strength. This was after I used the manic power wandering around in this world to form magic, and the efficiency of converting these powers was lost by more than half. Yet the other party said that he had a third-level supernatural power.
He sensed the purified rich power floating in the air within his source space, as well as the golden pool that had condensed into liquid, like golden honey, emitting powerful force. He had such power at his side.
She certainly didn't need to worry.
Not to mention the trump card of the White Dragon in her body. Kato Megumi sensed that compared to the previous suppression, this world did not have that strong sense of constant surveillance and oppression for some reason. Although there were some, they were not that strong.
Maybe it would be okay for my white dragon body to come out for a while?
With several layers of protection, Kato Megumi felt relieved and quickly agreed.
"Well, I understand Captain Chenxi's idea. I have no problem with tomorrow."
"That's great. Thank you very much, Ms. Kato."
Then the two discussed some specific details of the trip, the responsibilities that needed to be fulfilled by joining the team, and the division of remuneration.
The specific situation is that except for the time when she has to take action to besiege that guy, Kato Megumi doesn't have to take action at other times. All the spoils she gets basically belong to her, and the team will not share any of them.
If a team member encounters a crisis during the journey, she will be needed to rescue them. Of course, the rescue is not in vain, and the rescued person will give her some reward.
Of course, if a teammate is injured, the team member being treated will need to pay for the treatment. Of course, this payment is paid by Chenxi, or more strictly speaking, by the entire team.
After all, for a team, the benefits are not just personal, but part of it belongs to the entire team. Of course, this benefit is transparent, and no matter what the specific use is, it requires the informed consent of most team members.
Generally speaking, most psychics are weak. When they first join a team, they enjoy the team's protection but also pay a portion of their income to the team.
This is an agreement that must be signed. It is precisely because of such a system that low-level psychics can grow and will not be deliberately harmed, and high-level psychics will gain benefits and their efforts will not be in vain, and the team can also be maintained stably because of this income.
Rather than saying that he had joined the team, it would be more accurate to say that he was an external aid and bodyguard hired by the team.
After all, she was not needed in this mission, but the team needed her, so the price was naturally different from that of other psychics.
Kato Megumi was very satisfied with this. This unconstrained condition was very much to her liking. In this way, the relationship between the two was just a simple employment relationship, and there would be no distribution of interests or trouble with interpersonal relationships in the team.
For her who just came into this world, this is the most worry-free thing.
And it was because Chenxi was attracted by the other party's dislike of constraints at first sight that he proposed such generous conditions.
Not to mention other things, just the strength of a third-level psychic, even if he doesn't take action, he is a stabilizing force in the team and can play a certain value at the critical moment, so it is not a waste.
"That's settled then. See you tomorrow, Ms. Kato."
"Well, see you tomorrow. I'll go back and get ready."
The two had a pleasant conversation, and after finalizing the matter, they said goodbye to each other, and Kato Megumi also left holding the little girl's hand.
Hengde and his son watched the two men leave after their conversation, feeling excited, disappointed, and a little aggrieved.
He was excited because his disappeared supernatural power had a chance to come back. It could be seen that the girl was not lying, but really had that ability. The disappointed other party finished his conclusion. Because of his attitude, no one paid much attention to him afterwards, which made him feel a little disappointed and aggrieved at the same time.
I just had a rational suspicion, what's the big deal? He ignored me afterwards.
Hengde rarely showed a little emotion.
However, Kato Megumi was completely unaware of this. If she knew what Hengde was thinking, she would at most feel a little funny, and then a little helpless.
It wasn't that she ignored him, but she had nothing to say. What could she say to a patient, a strange man she didn't know? Even nurses and patients would usually only talk about the patient's condition. I'm afraid there would be nothing more to say.
Kato Megumi really didn't think much of Hengde's suspicion, and she didn't even take it to heart.
I can't give up talking to Chenxi about business and talk to him instead, right? Although she came here for the little girl and out of curiosity, for her the business at hand is the most important.
On the way back, the little girl didn't say a word. She just stared blankly and frowned, like a little adult thinking about something. It was very interesting.
Kato Megumi found it interesting and did not interrupt her. She just held her hand intentionally or unintentionally as they walked, while avoiding the potholes under their feet.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, there were two shadows, one big and one small, walking slowly. After a long time, the little girl finally asked.
"Why doesn't the captain believe that you, Kato-sister, are a magician?"
"Because she is a superpower..."
Kato Megumi touched her head and whispered.
"Eh?"
"She is a superpower, your uncle is a superpower, and everyone around you is a superpower."
Kato Megumi explained.
It's like in a world of atheists, if someone suddenly claims to be a person favored by God and performs some miracles, people will most likely think that this is a magic trick brought about by scientific means, or that there is some trick behind it.
Zombie World: Chapter 523 Chapter Intentional and Unintentional Purpose
So it is normal that the other party does not believe it.
Moreover, although magic is powerful and the casting method is somewhat special, the effect is not much different from super powers. It is normal for the other party to think it is super powers rather than magic.
Besides, what she wanted was for the other party not to believe it, because that would reduce trouble for her. Of course, even if they believed it, that didn't matter. Could it be that someone really wanted to learn magic from her?
Eh~ Come to think of it, this is really possible. How about thinking of an excuse to deal with it?
Kato Megumi was thinking about this in her mind without delaying her steps, and soon, the two returned home.
"You two are back!"
When the two came back, Cui Congxue opened the door immediately.
"What's the result? How is uncle?"
She asked worriedly.
Ever since the two men left, she has been feeling conflicted. Sometimes she wonders what to do if her uncle's superpowers can't be cured; sometimes she thinks maybe the superpowers haven't disappeared and Dongdong was just joking.
After all, her uncle saved her and her sister's lives, and she regarded him as a relative. Seeing him get into trouble now, she naturally felt uneasy.
So when she saw the two of them coming back, she hurriedly asked.
“Ah…Uncle…”
The little girl finally remembered what was wrong. She actually pushed away her uncle's hand when his questioning her. In the end, she didn't pay any attention to her uncle or say goodbye.
The younger sister-in-law looked bitter.
Oh my God, uncle won’t be angry with her, right?
But when Cui Congxue saw her sister like this, her heart skipped a beat, and she misunderstood what her sister meant.
"Uncle...Is it incurable?"
Cui Congxue was stunned and felt cold in her heart.
"Eh?"
The little girl was stunned and looked at her sister.
"No! Sister Kato said uncle can cure it."
However, Cui Congxue did not believe her sister's words of comfort, thinking that she was lying because she was worried that she was in a bad mood.
"Don't lie to me. I know that my uncle's ability has probably completely disappeared..."
Cui Congxue's eyes were a little red. Seeing her sister like this, the little girl explained hurriedly.
"Ah, no, no..."
"Don't lie to me."
But it was of no use.
So, Kato Megumi watched the two sisters going back and forth, and the misunderstanding between them became deeper and deeper. One thought the other was lying, and the other said she was not lying. Their incoherent speech made Kato Megumi laugh.
Finally, seeing that the misunderstanding deepened, Kato Megumi began to explain, which surprised Cui Congxue.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. I don't have to lie to you."
The girl naturally believed what Kato Megumi said, so after hearing her explanation, she suddenly felt embarrassed.
