0.08%...
Fu Ying was also stunned when Li Yanqian mentioned the 0.08% progress. There were indeed 8 zombie crystal nuclei in the backpack just now.
"I see! The crystal cores can upgrade your backpack!" Fuying exclaimed excitedly and shouted to Li Yanqian.
"What? What are you talking about?" Li Yanqian asked in confusion.
Gu Yao walked out with her hair still wet from the shower. After awakening her water system ability, she took longer baths, probably because she felt a closer connection to water.
Upon hearing Li Yanqian's discovery, Gu Yao was also shocked.
So, if the progress bar reaches 100%, Yanqian's backpack function will be expanded?!
"Wow, I really want to kill a few more zombies to speed up the process." Gu Yao said happily.
"Does that mean your backpack automatically absorbs crystal cores?" Fu Ying asked. If that's the case, how did the previous five crystal cores end up in the backpack?
Li Yanqian shook her head bewilderedly and said, "I accidentally double-clicked..."
She had pretended to accidentally click the square of the crystal core twice, and then the crystal core actually disappeared.
[Puff~ Who designed the trigger condition.]
[I spit out a mouthful of old blood. Such an outdated phrase, double click?]
[It's so simple yet so difficult...]
[It's getting more and more interesting. Li Yanqian finally found the correct way to use the backpack.]
[I have to say, if it were me, I would probably never discover such a simple trigger in my lifetime, okay?]
[...]
If Li Yanqian could see the barrage of comments from the audience at this moment, she would definitely shake hands with that colleague in tears. How had she missed such a simple trigger her whole life?
It was really just a double-click...
"Gu Yao, don't tell anyone about this for now." Li Yanqi said to Gu Yao.
"Why?" Gu Yao asked in confusion. Why shouldn't she tell others? Shouldn't even Teacher Guo know about it?
"You're being silly. If someone knows that Yanqian's backpack can be upgraded and expanded without limit, they'll definitely suspect that there are valuable items in her backpack. What if someone tries to rob her?" Fu Ying said, agreeing with Li Yanqian's reasoning. As the head of the Fu family, she had encountered many greedy people.
The principle of "innocence until proven guilty" doesn't always hold true. If Li Yanqian's backpack only had 10 slots, it would be fine; others would only find it convenient. But what if there were hundreds of slots?
There would surely be many envious and covetous individuals.
"Well, don't worry, I'll keep the secret absolutely," Gu Yao closed her mouth, indicating that she would treat it as if she didn't know and wouldn't tell anyone.
Li Yanqian smiled and nodded. Gu Yao was different from them. She had always been a straightforward school student who hadn't had much contact with the outside world. She didn't understand that people's intentions could be hidden, and she didn't understand that trust was built step by step through trials.
Considering their relationship with Guo Rongrong, Li Yanqian thought it would be better to be cautious for now. If they could continue to trust each other in the future, she would eventually reveal the secret.
At that moment, Fu Ying's phone unexpectedly rang.
Since nobody had contacted her before, Fu Ying had thrown her phone in a corner long ago. She didn't expect it to ring now.
"Gao Yuan?" Fu Ying looked at the name on the screen with confusion. Gao Yuan was one of her subordinates and a trusted executive at the company before the apocalypse. But why would he be calling her now?
With these questions in her mind, Fu Ying answered the phone.
"Thank God, someone finally answered my call," Gao Yuan said, sounding relieved. He had been calling all his acquaintances these days, including his girlfriends. Some couldn't be reached at all, while others hung up or missed the calls. But Fu Ying was the first one to pick up.
"You're not dead yet?" Fu Ying asked, puzzled.
