Chapter 85 - 85: Creatures with Lower Intelligence Are Better to Control

Fu Shinan’s gaze held a profound meaning. “Ji Zan will find a place for them to go. As for how long they can survive, that’s up to them. Good people don’t live long, while villains linger for centuries.”

Just as she expected, Ji Zan had indeed left in his car, exiting the compound.

Fu Shinan smirked. She knew that for the sake of maintaining order within the group, he would expel Bai Lianhua, but he wouldn’t completely abandon her because of her brother.

Man Yu suddenly chuckled, “You guessed it right. Now, guess again, will Ji Zan stay behind tonight to accompany those two bitches?”

Fu Shinan turned her head and replied, “Only if he doesn’t want his nephew anymore!”

Before she finished speaking, Xiao Chang’an excitedly ran over, holding a dragonfly with colorful wings in his small hands. “Auntie, I caught a dragonfly with colorful wings! It’s so pretty!”

Seeing what he held, Fu Shinan was taken aback. The wings were indeed colorful, with a gradient effect, truly beautiful. But it was also eerie. In the previous world, something like this would never happen. However, now it was becoming more common. If it continued to develop, would humans also grow strange things?

On the other hand, Man Yu didn’t think too much about it and said with surprise, “This is really bizarre, but I have to admit, it looks pretty…”

At the same time, Fu Shinan received another prompt from the system, asking if she wanted to control it. She gave it a try, and the familiar sensation rushed over her again. Then, she mentally instructed the dragonfly to nod its head, and it quickly complied. It was evident that controlling such a creature was easier than controlling Bai Lianhua! In other words, controlling beings with lower intelligence was easier than controlling humans!

Since the damage caused by mental control on the human brain was still uncertain, she didn’t dare to experiment on Xiao Chang’an.

At that moment, MO Cheng and Sun Han returned. After facing the zombies with their supernatural abilities last night, their relationship had noticeably improved, and they had become more in sync.

“Sister Fu, Brother Ji said he had something to do and left. Should we go out and search for supplies?” MO Cheng asked.

With Ji Zan absent, Fu Shinan was automatically assumed to be in charge of the base.

“Is there anything urgently needed to be restocked?” Fu Shinan didn’t bother with modesty but also acknowledged that she didn’t possess Ji Zan’s physical strength and combat skills. A wrong decision could potentially harm many people, so it was better to play it safe.

MO Cheng scratched his head and thought for a moment. “There’s nothing urgently needed, but Professor Feng wants to go out and find seeds.”

At that moment, Professor Feng arrived. “Xiao Nan, I want to go out and try our luck! What if we find some seeds? It’s been quite a while, and I’m afraid those seeds might have spoiled. Besides, with the two of them having fire and lightning abilities, there shouldn’t be any problems.”

Hearing this, Fu Shinan couldn’t refuse. “MO Cheng, you stay here. I’ll go out together with Sun Han and Professor Feng. I’m not sure what time Mr Ji will come back so one of you need to stay behind.”

MO Cheng understood Fu Shinan’s intention. Currently, only he and Sun Han had awakened their supernatural abilities, which were attack-based. It made sense to leave someone behind for protection. “Alright.”

Fu Shinan then looked at Man Yu and said, “You stay at home and accompany

Chang’an.”

Man Yu had no objections. “I understand. Be careful, all of you.”

Fu Shinan nodded and, along with Professor Feng and Sun Han, went downstairs. They ran into Xia Dong, who heard that they were going to search for supplies and immediately wanted to join them.

Fu Shinan didn’t reject. Because he still hadn’t awakened any supernatural abilities, Xia Dong’s emotions had become increasingly restless and depressed. It wasn’t a good sign, so it was better to go out and take a break with them.

The four of them arrived at the same building as yesterday.

Sun Han pointed inside. “The seeds were found in this area, in a resident’s house! But I doubt there’s much left. The place was already damaged by the earthquake. What could possibly be left now?”

Professor Feng furrowed his brows. “Even if there were some in the resident’s house, there couldn’t be much. Does anyone here used to live in An Town? Are you familiar with the area and know where they specifically sold seeds?”

Xia Dong used to be a supermarket manager in A Town, so he was naturally more familiar with the area. After thinking for a moment, he said, “There’s a market to the east. I remember there was a street inside that specialized in selling flower and vegetable seeds. But that street is quite narrow, I have no idea what it looks like now…”

Professor Feng immediately became excited. “That’s great! Let’s go and take a look. Maybe we can squeeze in and find some seeds!”

The four of them got back into the car and followed Xia Dong’s directions to the destination.

However, just as Xia Dong had feared, the buildings on both sides of the road had collapsed, leaving nothing but ruins.

Professor Feng sighed. “Let’s go inside and see. Hopefully, we can still find some intact seeds….”
