The entire underground settlement was filled with tens of thousands of people, all of whom were fully armed, and even women took up weapons. Because this world is on the verge of a life-and-death crisis at any time, almost everyone is soldiers.

Tens of thousands of charge guns are not a small force, which is enough to turn most of the second-stage dark beasts into coke. As long as they do not encounter large groups of dark beasts, they are directly bombarded into the camp. Relying on underground tunnels, there will generally be no casualties in the settlement.

As time passed by minute by minute, the atmosphere of the entire underground settlement became more and more solemn, terrifyingly quiet, and some bad news came from time to time, such as the settlement in front was destroyed.

Lee Zhong, Old Tom, Rick and several other pharmacists were preparing various potions overnight, busy and almost only rested for two or three hours a day. Lee Zhong was practicing martial arts, had a strong body and good self-regulation ability, but it was nothing, but Old Tom seemed to have become more and more haggard in the past few days.

Seeing Old Tom's appearance, Li Zhong felt a bad feeling.

After half a night, everyone in the entire potion production area went to have dinner. Li Zhong came to Old Tom and said to him: "Old Tom, I see that your face is a little pale. I can't stand it anymore. I have a mutant crystal core here. If you take it, it should be able to replenish your vitality. Your life span is not long, so it would be bad to continue to work like this."

When Old Tom heard Li Zhong's words, he said with a stern face: "Boy Li Zhong, don't worry about me, please take care of yourself, I'm still tough, I won't die so easily. You should keep such a valuable thing as a mutant crystal core."

Looking at the dissatisfied look of old Tom's face and the fatigue that could not be hidden between his eyebrows, Li Zhong frowned slightly and said again: "Why are you doing this? What if your grandson saw it? Don't you want to see him again? He may not be able to come back for two or three years when he is a mercenary. Do you think you can live for a few years if you work hard like this? Do you want to see your grandson come back in the future and only see a bunch of graves? Don't you want to enjoy family happiness with him?"

Hearing Li Zhong's words, Old Tom was silent in an instant, with countless happy times flashing in his eyes, and his grandson was his soft help.

Looking at the crystal core that Li Zhong handed over, a trace of gratitude flashed in Old Tom's eyes, and then he swallowed the mutated crystal core in front of Li Zhong.

The mutant crystal nucleus is an evolutionary thing, with magical power and can be swallowed directly by people. What kind of evolutionary results can be achieved depends on luck.

The mutant crystal nucleus is not a simple thing. The best way to take it is to prepare a drug, which can even cause special mutations in the body. Generally, direct administration will cause a large amount of evolutionary substances to pass away, and it will become a tonic. Unless you are particularly lucky, you will have the opportunity to absorb various evolutionary substances in the mutant crystal nucleus.

Seeing Old Tom taking the mutant crystal nucleus, Li Zhong nodded and said again: "That's right. As long as you are in good health, you can go further in the future and reach the realm of a strong man in the darkness. After the lifespan is extended, you will have a better chance to take care of your grandson. After all, you are the only relative in the world for your grandson."

At this time, the power of the crystal core had begun to work, and the old Tom's complexion had improved a lot. The old Tom looked at Li Zhong, and a smile flashed across his face and said, "That's right, let's go, we're going to have a meal. Rick should be anxious."

After an interlude, the rest time ended, and Lee Jong, Old Tom, Rick and others were once again engaged in busy work, and in a blink of an eye, it took ten days.

During these ten days, people kept coming from the ground. It seemed that the tide of dark beasts was very large. The entire survival area was surrounded by countless dark beasts, at least hundreds of millions of dark beasts. The battle on the front line had reached the most intense level. Legend has it that Her Majesty the Queen and the eight Heavenly Sword Masters have all taken action and killed hundreds of millions of dark beasts. The entire survival area was in chaos.

This news was not only obtained by the hunters here, but also by the wounded soldiers who retreated from the battlefield.

These wounded soldiers are mercenaries who have gone out of the dark settlements. They wander around major mobile cities and use their lives and youth to fight between life and death. They are not only to earn the opportunity to get rich overnight, but also to go further in their own evolution. However, most of them will be hurt in constant battles and have to withdraw from this industry and return to their hometown.

Now there are three injured mercenaries who have retreated from the battlefield in this settlement. They are all the peaks of the level 20 black warriors, all of which are disabled wounded soldiers or internal organs are shocked.

Medicine in this world is very developed. As long as you are not dead, you can pay enough crystal coins to treat limb regeneration in hospitals in various mobile cities.

However, in contrast, the minimum amount of crystal coins spent is tens of thousands of degrees. Generally, a mercenary’s income is consumed for a whole number of years, so most mercenaries who have recovered their health will not go to the battlefield, but will return to a stable life, guarding their accumulations, and spend the second half of their lives safely.

On this day, Li Zhong and Rick were delivering medicine to a mercenary who had retreated from the battlefield. These mercenaries were experienced, so as soon as they appeared, they were entrusted with important tasks by the old village chief. However, because they were physically traumatized, they were only responsible for the arrangement of the specific militia team to ensure the combat effectiveness of the entire settlement.

In exchange, the old village chief would send a bottle of resuscitation every three days to ensure their injuries were taken care of.

The resuscitation potion is full of medicine for low-level dark warriors, but once the level rises to level 15, the medicine will be greatly reduced, and multiple medicines are required to play a role.

At this time, Li Zhong held a bottle of potion and handed it over to the strong man with a beard in front of him.

This man is named Jace, a level 20 black warrior. I heard that he specializes in using double guns and is proficient in primary gun art. He is very powerful. If he had not been sieged by two second-stage dark beasts, he would not have been severely injured and lost one left hand. Although he had been treated and grew up again, his new arm was very fragile, so his tension was greatly reduced.

Lee Jong looked at Jess and said, "Captain Jess, this is today's resuscitation potion, please hold it."

Jace took the potion handed over by Li Zhong with a smile on his face and smiled, "Young man, I'll bother you these days. If this dark beast tide hadn't come, I really wanted to have a good drink with you."

Li Zhong looked at the rosacea in front of him and said to himself: "He's a drunkard."

There are also wine in this world. Many fruits in the dark forest can be picked and made into fruit wine, and it is also one of the main drinks in this world.

Li Zhong smiled and said, "Forget it, I won't drink. By the way, Lord Jace, can I ask you some frontline things?"

When Jace heard Li Zhong's words, his face changed, and then said in a deep tone: "Frontline, that's a terrifying place. There is no realm of a strong dark man. It's better not to go. It's too dangerous. I won't go anywhere again."
