Chapter 47: It Has Nothing to Do With Money!

Xinhe Residential Area, Block 4, Building 1, Floor 15.
“Mom, I’m so scared. Will we starve to death?” A six-year-old girl was curled up in her mother’s arms, her cheeks ruddy.
“No, child, hold on. Someone will definitely come to save us.” The mother’s eyes were red as she rubbed her daughter’s feet and hands to prevent them from getting cold.
“Daddy, where’s daddy…” The little girl murmured.
“Daddy will come back, he will come back…” The mother’s voice was choked with sobs, and her body was trembling slightly.
A few days ago, her husband took the risk to go out and never came back.
There was no water, no electricity, and no signal in the neighborhood. The food and drinks at home were all gone.
Even though she had given all the food to her daughter on an empty stomach, the six-year-old child was weak and still came down with a fever that reached 40 degrees.
If this continued, even if she did not starve to death, her daughter would…
Bang!
The thick anti-theft door collapsed with a loud bang, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Immediately after, the locked door opened, and a handsome figure appeared like an angel.
At that moment, the woman holding the child could no longer hold back the tears in her eyes.
“Please save my child…”
Wang Ye quickly reached out his right hand and supported the woman who had fainted from hunger. He held the little girl in his arms with his left hand.
“So hot…” Wang Ye pressed his forehead against the girl’s forehead. “She has a fever.”
He gently placed the woman on the edge of the bed and took off his backpack.
Then, he took out a disposable syringe and first gave the girl a fever shot before giving the woman a nutrition shot.
“Hold the child tightly and follow me,” Wang Ye carried the woman on his back and tied her to his back with a strap.
“Yes,” Yu Shuiqin replied softly. She looked at Wang Ye, who was focused on saving people, and her heart was deeply touched.
He had saved her in the same way during the rookie trial, so gentlemanly and kind.
At the assembly point.
Wang Ye smiled when he saw that the mother and daughter had survived the critical period.
His gaze fell on Yu Shuiqin, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled.
“Motherly love is really great. This mother only drank a little water for three days.” Wang Ye was touched.
At this moment, he felt that the rescue team’s work was really meaningful.
“Yes, because of her perseverance, help came.” Yu Shuiqin also gained a lot and felt a sense of satisfaction.
“By the way, Wang Ye, how did you hear the sound from so far away?” Yu Shuiqin was very curious.
“The five senses of a genetic warrior are more outstanding than that of an ability user, to begin with,” Wang Ye said briefly.
In fact, not only were his five senses outstanding, but after he reached level 2 as an ability user, his consciousness was now on par with Yu Shuiqin’s.
“Is that so?” Yu Shuiqin looked at Wang Ye with her beautiful eyes.
“Mm.” Wang Ye hummed softly, “I’ll go check on the mother and daughter.”
Yu Shuiqin’s perception was outstanding and she was smart. She seemed to have already seen through some clues.
Inside the ambulance.
“Thank you, thank you for saving my life.” When the woman saw Wang Ye, she desperately wanted to get up from the bed. “Xiao Yun, quickly thank this big brother.”
“Thank you, big brother.” The little girl said timidly.
“You’re welcome. It’s my duty,” Wang Ye smiled and made the woman sit back down. Then, he touched the little girl’s forehead. “It’s not that hot anymore.”
“Yeah, it’s much better after the injection and medicine.” The woman smiled weakly.
“Can you tell me what happened these days?” Wang Ye sat down in the middle.

Xinhe Residential Area.
Wang Ye searched the buildings one by one.
“No signs of life.” Yu Shuiqin looked at Wang Ye and said softly, “You should know.”
“I don’t.”
Wang Ye thought to himself that this girl was too smart. It would not be easy to deal with her if they got together.
“Don’t you find it strange?”
“No corpse?” Yu Shuiqin said.
Wang Ye nodded. “1 asked her about it carefully just now. Although the evacuation notice was issued half a year ago, there should still be many residents in this neighborhood who haven’t moved to the base city. Now, all of them have disappeared, leaving only the mother and daughter. If it’s due to monster attacks, there will be blood stains and bones left, but there are none.”
Yu Shuiqin thought for a while and said, “Would it be like the girl’s father, going out to ask for help and looking for supplies, but then attacked by monsters on the way?”
“It’s possible, but it’s impossible for all of them to be gone because of the same reason,” Wang Ye let out a long sigh. “I hope I’m overthinking it. They might have already left the neighborhood and been rescued.”
“Yes.”
The first day of the joint operation quickly passed.
At night, everyone gathered at the gathering point to talk about their harvest for the day.
Other than the North Camp, the rescue team of the other three Camps had also found refugees.
The East Camp was the luckiest. They rescued six refugees in one go and temporarily took the lead in the joint operation.
The combination of ability users Wang Ye and Yu Shuiqin had the most outstanding consciousness.
There were indeed no more refugees in Wangzhai Town. Some had moved away, some had been rescued, and some were dead.
This place had already become the past.
The next day, the efficiency dropped slightly.
After all, they had already hunted quite a number of fiend-level monsters on the first day.
That being said, Wang Ye still gained many potential points since Wangzhai Town was very big.
If not for the joint operation, the search and rescue of the entire Wuyi County couldn’t even be done in a month.
“Xiao Qin, genetic warriors can use the K32 body stimulant or evolution fruit to quickly improve their physical fitness, but what methods do ability users have? I have a friend who wants to ask,” Wang Ye searched the neighborhood while asking.
He was not in a hurry to upgrade his level as a genetic warrior. His strength as an ability user was lagging.
“W13 brain activator,” Yu Shuiqin replied.
“How much is it?
100 million.”
Wang Ye was speechless.
“Well, you can’t buy it even if you have the money, though,” Yu Shuiqin said,
“The main raw material for the brain activator is the demon core of an awakening-type monster, making research difficult. But if you want it, Wang Ye… I can think of a way.”
Umm… It was not a matter of whether he could buy it or not, but whether he had the money.
Is there anything else?” Wang Ye asked.
“Awakening-type fruits, I guess, but they are too rare.” Yu Shuiqin shook her head. “Only the country’s treasury has it.”
“Pretend 1 didn’t ask.” Wang Ye threw all this nonsense to the back of his mind.
It was better for him to just add potential points in peace.
Upgrading himself with money did not suit him. He was more fitted to burn his life.
On the third day of the joint operation, they swept through the last area of Wangzhai Town.
There was finally good news from Huang Zirui. They had successfully rescued a refugee from a basement.
Wang Ye didn’t get anything, but the potential points he gained were solid.
His cooperation with Yu Shuiqin was much better than before.
Bang!
A high-grade fiend-level monster slammed its horn at Wang Ye, but it was blocked by an invisible energy net.
Wang Ye, who had been prepared, broke through the defense with one slash. The series-II Red Sun Saber made blood splatter everywhere, and the second slash instantly killed the monster.
[Killed a level three bull monster.]
[Potential Points: 97.1—103.1.]
His potential points had passed the 100 mark!
Wang Ye opened his personal interface and his consciousness fell on the “+”.
[Do you wish to spend 100 potential points to increase the level of the Star Evolution Technique?]
[Yes.] contemporary romance
His body and mind were immersed in the universe, circulating at a speed that was a thousand times faster. The star continued to absorb energy, shining brightly.
His comprehension of the Star Evolution Technique had reached the limit time and time again, and it was finally perfected.
[Star Evolution Technique, mastery -> perfection.]
Light flashed, and boundless cosmic energy entered his body.
His body underwent a drastic transformation.
It was different from the Scarlet Sun Evolution Technique.
All six of his physical aspects, namely strength, flexibility, speed, agility, durability, and essence had been leveled up, and his genes had evolved to perfection.
His six senses were extremely clear, and his perception of the outside world had reached a new level.
Wang Ye knew very well that with this, although they were both ability users, his perception was stronger than Yu Shuiqin’s.
Moreover, it was far more than that.
As the Star Evolution Technique was raised to perfection, his current physical strength had already crossed the threshold of level 3.
Even if he did not use the Strengthening Spell, his close combat strength was still stronger than Huang Zirui’s.
10 million for a K32 body stimulant?
Hmph, he didn’t need it. It had nothing to do with money.
Breakthrough!
Level 3 genetic warrior..
