Chapter 14 Talent

After Long Yu finished eating, Chen Luo called him over.

Long Yu was a little restrained, not knowing why Chen Luo had called him. It was probably because of his Level 4 ability.

Chen Luo smiled and said, "Are you satisfied with the food?"

Long Yu nodded repeatedly, "Very satisfied. It not only tastes good but is also truly filling."

Chen Luo changed the subject. "By the way, I'm curious as to why you wanted to join me here?"

Chen Luo was just about to figure out how to recruit Long Yu, but he didn't expect Long Yu to join voluntarily.

Long Yu's expression turned serious. "Because your ideals align with mine. I want to eliminate the zombies and restore the world to normal as soon as possible."

Chen Luo understood. So that was it. But unlike Mi Li, he didn't explain things to Long Yu.

*Zombies are something you can just kill off whenever you want?*

*Maybe I can come up with a slogan to attract talent?*

*Eliminate the zombies and rebuild our home?*

A slogan like that, coupled with proof of strength, would definitely attract talented people with similar ideals. These kinds of people generally have no ambition and can be subdued.

He wouldn't have to spend all his energy searching.

Just spread the slogan, and people will actively join.

Chen Luo kept that in mind and asked, "What abilities do you currently possess?"

Long Yu said, "I can control metal. The lethality is average, but I can metallize my body, making my physical defense very strong, and my strength is not weak either."

Speaking of strong physical defense, Long Yu couldn't help but straighten his back.

*My physical defense is really strong.*

Chen Luo curled his lip. He wanted to let you know the dangers of the human heart last time, but I wanted to keep a low profile.

This time, let me show you that your talent isn't just metallizing your body.

Chen Luo said with a half-smile, "Very strong? Shall I give it a try?"

Long Yu's spirits lifted. This was the perfect opportunity to prove his worth.

Long Yu had no idea how powerful Chen Luo was.

Long Yu immediately metallized his body, and his skin took on a faint golden hue.

Chen Luo didn't wind up at all, and was about to punch Long Yu in the stomach, when he thought, Long Yu just finished breakfast, and he ate so much.

If I punch him, he might throw up all the noodles.

Too treacherous, can't do that.

Chen Luo changed his attack and punched Long Yu in the shoulder instead.

With a "clang," it sounded like a hammer hitting metal.

Long Yu's face changed drastically. He was knocked back four or five meters, feeling as if a sledgehammer had hit his shoulder hard. It was extremely painful, and he couldn't even straighten his shoulder.

Long Yu couldn't believe it. How was this possible?

A Level 3 ability user attacking him would have no effect. Long Yu had never been hit by a Level 4, but he figured it would only hurt a little at most.

He didn't expect that just one punch would cripple his shoulder.

Chen Luo shook his head and said, "I only used 50% of my strength."

Long Yu was devastated.

Chen Luo took out a steel pipe, having already prepared it.

"I've seen a metal-type ability user who can melt metal, recombine it, and transform it into various shapes, making it more solid and sharper."

Metal-type ability users can change the molecular structure of metal and even turn any metal into gold.

There are many unknown metals in the universe, and metal-type ability users can turn any metal into a metal that is beneficial for combat.

For example, turning it into mithril, which is conducive to the conduction and amplification of magic.

Where can you find mithril? You can only have metal-type ability users modify it.

Long Yu stepped forward and easily turned the steel pipe into a puddle of liquid. Long Yu had tried it before.

Chen Luo was pleasantly surprised. "Try turning it into gold?"

Chen Luo took out a gold ring to let Long Yu familiarize himself with the structure of gold atoms.

Long Yu smiled wryly. You have such a big imagination? Is it possible?

But Long Yu still tried. After three attempts, he finally succeeded.

Long Yu was dumbfounded. If I had this ability before the apocalypse, wouldn't I have made a fortune?

But after only a minute, the gold turned back into copper.

Unless Long Yu's level improves, he won't be able to easily turn copper into gold permanently, or it will take a lot of time to completely solidify it.

The King-level Long Yu in the future could easily create permanent weapons for Level 7s and 8s, but it was very difficult for King-level experts.

He could only temporarily create weapons suitable for King-level for two or three people.

Having a weapon can increase one's strength by at least 30%.

30% is quite a bit.

Chen Luo smiled and said, "So, do you know your worth now? If you can create a large number of weapons and armor and equip people with them, isn't that better than you personally fighting on the front lines?"

Long Yu felt enlightened. That's right. If I create ten thousand sets of weapons and armor, the survivors can greatly reduce casualties.

Without Chen Luo even needing to give a pep talk, Long Yu lowered his head and took a pile of metal to the room Chen Luo gave him to start experimenting.

Chen Luo smiled contentedly, anticipating you creating a staff suitable for my space abilities.

Chen Luo didn't have a weapon in his previous life.

It's impossible in a short time. Long Yu's abilities are limited, and he doesn't have much time to experiment each day. Finding a suitable metal also requires luck and talent.

Long Yu can't transform advanced mysterious metals yet either.

With Long Yu's joining, Chen Luo was in a good mood.

But it was soon broken.

Zhao Hai came to Chen Luo in a panic, with extreme fear on his face and his hands trembling uncontrollably.

Zhao Hai wanted to smoke a cigarette to calm his nerves, but his flustered hands couldn't light it. Neither could his several underlings.

Chen Luo personally lit it for this Brother Hai.

Chen Luo asked solemnly, "What happened?"

What happened to scare Zhao Hai like this?

Zhao Hai took a deep puff of smoke and said, "Chen Luo, I think we should get out of here as soon as possible. I personally saw an extremely abnormal zombie appear nearby."

"It really scared me to death. It was clearly a hundred meters away, but in the blink of an eye, it was next to one of my men and killed him with a single breath."

Song Ling's eyes were also scattered. "We can't deal with it. We really can't deal with it. It's too fast, and the wind blades it uses are terrifying."

"It killed dozens of us. Everyone else ran away. We ran fast, and it didn't chase us, so we were able to escape."

"Maybe it will be here soon."

Mi Fan, who was yawning, suddenly said, "Chen Luo, you're done for."
