Starting with watering the World Tree for otherworldly survival

Furthermore, dragons generally hold each other's territories in high regard. Even if the pair of silver fire dragons are not currently in the city, no holy-level dragon would easily attempt to challenge their territory.

If they take a detour, the situation will be quite different. Qin He doesn't want to be captured and killed by a Saint-level dragon while flying along the road.

Let's do it! No matter who created these zombies, Qin He is determined to storm this dead city.

Even if your hordes of zombies are troublesome, are they any more terrifying than a Saint-level dragon?

Once those two Silver Fire Dragons, who have reached the peak of the Saint rank, return to the Dead City... perhaps they will be able to deal with these hordes of zombies.

Only by acquiring enough treasures within this dead city to enhance his strength will Qin He have the opportunity to face threats, including Saint-level dragons, after leaving the dead city.

The zombie core that he had been so wary of before, Qin He now held in his hand.

"It's a fifth-tier lower-level core, somewhat similar to a magic core. This one is filled with battle qi."

Battle aura is something that dragons cannot absorb or cultivate. If you give a dragon a rare and precious battle aura manual, it might just unleash a powerful breath attack on you.

Because no dragon in the world has ever been able to master this technique. What else could it be but a waste?

Even if they obtain a martial arts manual, they will most likely end up exchanging it for gold and silver treasures from humans.

Fortunately, Qin He possesses the Gluttony talent, which allows him to replenish almost any kind of energy.

Qin He discovered that the cores of these zombies were quite valuable treasures.

After being refined with dragon's breath, the core, which was originally the size of a marble and similar to a black pearl, became even more translucent.

Only after burning away the zombie virus on the surface could Qin He safely consume the core.

If there are any magic crystals or magic cores later, give them to Zhong Liuxiu, Luna, and Mana first.

After all, the core of this zombie was dug out from the skulls of these zombies.

Even if the Gluttony talent could work, Qin He wouldn't want the girls around him to eat something so disgusting.

"Hey, it looks a bit like a Maltesers?"

Completely baffled by the cocoa butter-like texture, I wondered... was this zombie product modified for better taste?

Ultimately, it's still a creation like necromancy; its storage and conversion efficiency are inferior to that of a true magic core.

To be honest, this thing is more like a way to replenish what you've consumed.

The fifth-tier lower-level battle qi energy lingered around Qin He's limbs and bones, slightly repairing some of the damage he had suffered in the previous battle and some of the problems with his heart.

But it's just repair; these things are pretty much like medicine.

It doesn't do much to increase strength. If it weren't for the Gluttony talent, Qin He wouldn't have received much of a boost.

Now Qin He understands that as long as he has the courage to face this zombie-infested city, he will surely reap the rewards.

Putting everything else aside, the "black pearls" inside these zombie heads alone represent a decent source of income.

Even if Qin He doesn't keep it for himself to restore his physical strength and magic energy, he can process it and sell it.

"Ugh... Damn it! Qin He, you have to pull yourself together. You even dared to drink monster brains, what in this world can't you do? As long as you can protect yourself and Xiu Xiu, you can do anything...!"

Trying to hypnotize himself, Qin He patted his chest to stop thinking about the origin of the zombie core.

What's the big deal? Magic cores are extracted from the heads of magical beasts, aren't they? If I act like a woman, how can I be qualified to rule the world?

……

After calming down, Qin He gathered all the girls together; the current situation was undoubtedly more severe than ever before.

The safe house could be carried with him, so Qin He wasn't worried at all about being attacked by hordes of zombies at night. He just needed to dig a hole at night, fill it in three times, and then fill it again…

Oh no! Releasing the safe house underground or in another place where zombies can't see it will basically solve the problem of finding a place to stay overnight.

Qin He also guessed that there must be some buildings in the dead city that could protect against zombies. Exploring while looking for a place to stay would probably be a good approach.

If there were civilian-level safe houses in the dead city, it might be much easier to hide from zombies underground.

After all, Qin He's luxurious safe house was almost comparable to some nice detached villas, with a space of about eight acres.

If such a safe house were placed underground, the ground would be pushed up the next day, which would be a minor issue.

Of course, Qin He could also lead everyone into the spatial scales. He and Zhong Liuxiu each had two spatial scales, each with a space at least a thousand miles in diameter.

Then using some formations or restrictions to eliminate the aura should also work.

Or Qin He could be ruthless and carry the spatial scale with him. He could let Zhong Liuxiu and the other girls spend the night peacefully inside, while he, alone with a gun, would deal with the endless stream of zombies.

In short, there are many methods; it all depends on the specific circumstances that follow.

After explaining the situation to everyone, Qin He received a fairly consistent response.

They wanted to go together, doing their best not to hold Qin He back and helping him out. Of course, if it was really dangerous, they were also willing to listen to Qin He and hide in the spatial scale.

For Qin He, this is actually quite good.

After confirming the girls' intentions, Qin He began to make arrangements before their departure.

Chapter 53 Allocating Resources to the Girls

He took out the six gifts from the spatial scale.

It's time for these gifts from the chosen ones to be put to good use.

“Inanna, this Divine Hymn is a two-handed sword, and its attributes are very suitable for you as a paladin. Now I will give it to you.”

Qin He had previously studied this and discovered that there was also a cute sword spirit in Divine Grace Hymn.

However, unlike the Demon Lord Yulan, this sword spirit is currently asleep.

Seeing that Qin He had truly bestowed the Divine Grace upon her, Inanna's eyes immediately lit up with extreme joy.

What an honor it must be for a paladin to be granted such a divine sword.

"Thank you, Lord Qin He! I will definitely do my best!"

Qin He trusts her so much, she absolutely cannot let him down.

When she wielded the Divine Grace Hymn in an open space, the incomparably powerful sword energy and gale force perfectly combined with her divine battle aura, greatly increasing its power.

Seeing Inanna so overjoyed, Qin He's brows relaxed slightly.

"Inanna, when you're using a two-handed sword as a paladin to deal with zombies, remember not to stray too far from us. And don't rush into an attack, understand? Your first priority is always ensuring your own safety."

As he gave her his instructions, Qin He noticed that Inanna's gaze towards him was becoming increasingly sweet and tender.

"Yes, I will definitely be careful."

“Mira, this is a replica made in later generations based on the design of the fairy bow Sylven. It also has the symbolic significance of growing with its master and being extraordinary to the elves.”

Mira took out the Fairy Bow. Although she forced herself to remain calm on the surface, she was already extremely nervous inside.

The Fairy Bow, Sylvanas, is a legendary artifact that can command the entire elven race! What kind of person could possibly be able to replicate such a divine bow?

Excited yet somewhat bewildered, Mira accepted the ancient fairy bow. A warm affinity, most comforting to those of elven blood, immediately emanated from her.

Reaching out to pluck the stringless part, a cyan-green light string immediately unfurled. Pulling that string generated a similar light arrow!

As his mind changed, the number of arrows on the bowstring increased from one to two, three, four, five, or even more.

"Thank you... Qin He. I will definitely make the best use of this Fairy Bow and won't let you down~"

As soon as Mira finished speaking, Qin He took out the rare magic wand, Ice Soul Frost Star.

"And this Ice Soul Frost Star, only someone with an affinity for ice magic and you, as a mage, can unleash its power."

"However, everyone must remember that magic is not very effective against zombies. They have a considerable degree of magic resistance, so it's best not to use magic unless you can kill them in one hit."

Mira was at a loss upon suddenly receiving two precious treasures. She was not only flattered but also worried about having gained an extra treasure.

But with Inanna, Freya, and even Vild all congratulating her, and Zhong Liuxiu nodding in agreement, Mira no longer hesitated and accepted the Ice Soul Star.

"Hmm... I'll definitely use them well and wipe out all the zombies here!"

Encouraged by her friends and Qin He, Mira is now full of fighting spirit and quite confident.

She took out many bottles, jars, and wooden buckets from her storage ring and handed them all to Qin He.

"Lord Qin He, I know this trip to the Dead City will be extremely dangerous. I don't want to hold you and everyone else back because I'm drunk or for any other reason!"

As if she had made a huge decision, this snow elf who loved drinking actually handed over all her wine collection to Qin He, including the ones Qin He had recently asked her to select in the safe house's wine cellar.

"From today onwards, until we all escape this dead city together, I will never drink again and cause trouble! Please... and Qin He, please keep a close eye on me~"

Mira smiled more radiantly than ever before. At this moment, she was no longer the elven girl who needed to escape her fear by getting drunk.

Because now, Qin He is by her side. She has nothing to be afraid of anymore.

"Okay, let me try it~ Mmm! Good wine!"

After gently ruffling Mira's icy blue hair, Qin He opened a bottle of her treasured wine in front of her and drank it amidst the girls' laughter and chatter.

Seeing Qin He casually guzzling her collection like water, Mira was both angry and amused, and playfully punched him with her little fist.

"Hmm, the drunken sprite isn't drinking anymore! That's like the sun rising in the west!"

At this moment, Luna the Snow Bear delivered the finishing blow, and Mira immediately pointed at her little face in her loli form.

"You little idiot, how dare you talk back to me! You should really change your gluttonous ways. If you get lost in the city, let's see who's going to look for you, hmph~"

After the girls finished bickering, Qin He also gave Mira some instructions.

"These zombies' weak point is their heads, Mira. Aim for their brains. Remember, if you give away your position, run away as fast as you can."

Knowing that she couldn't handle hordes of zombies alone when they got close, Mira immediately nodded.

"Alright. Next is the Holy Blessing, which is also a light-based codex and is most suitable for Freya. If someone is injured in battle, Freya will be the one to heal and purify them immediately."

Qin He handed the not-so-thick holy book to Freya, and could feel the surging light-elemental magic energy filling Freya's entire body.

"Yes, Lord Qin He. May God bless you~"

The pages of the Holy Blessing were instantly turned, and the spells of blessing immediately appeared within.

Not only Qin He, the recipient of the blessing, but almost everyone here was bathed in the holy light of divine grace. Instantly, they felt their entire bodies surging with energy.

Qin He felt that the damage to his heart from converting demonic energy had been further repaired.

These weapons are indeed very compatible with the girls around Qin He, which suggests that the four gods share information to some extent.

It's certainly a good thing that the other party could give such a suitable gift.

"Freya, just like I said before. These zombies are different from ordinary undead creatures; they have considerable resistance to magic."

"Therefore, you must not rashly use light magic to attack them."

With the blessing of the Holy Temple, Freya's already powerful healing and recovery abilities have undoubtedly reached new heights.

This is actually quite good. Qin He and Zhong Liuxiu aren't afraid of the zombie virus, but they are afraid of getting infected and injured. With Freya casting healing spells behind them, they can undoubtedly feel much more at ease.

"Yes, I will try my best to do my job well and take responsibility for treating everyone."

After speaking, Freya's bright red tongue curled at the corner of her lips, looking extremely alluring. A slender succubus tail swayed, as if inviting Qin He.

She transmitted her voice:

"Of course... I will treat you properly~"

Qin He smiled calmly; this succubus girl was truly captivating.

"Next, Vild. These Emerald Fangs are yours."

"As an assassin, your Shadow Aura combined with the Dark Attribute Concealment Mist of the Jade Fang might allow you to completely escape the zombies."

With both undead and dark attributes, Emerald Fang possesses considerable surprise attack capabilities.

The emerald-green blade had been cleaned of the poison Qin He had left behind.

After all, he didn't want to send the girls around him away, and the venom might not even affect the zombies.

"Yes, thank you, Lord Qin He... I will definitely ensure everyone's safety and my own!"

Upon receiving the Emerald Fang, Vilder's necromantic and dark magic was immediately activated. Possessing the Emerald Fang actually had another hidden advantage.

That is, regardless of whether it is a battle aura or magic attribute, as long as the corresponding power is consumed, one can release necromancy and dark magic.

With these two powerful tools, it's as if Vild has gained the ability to use magic.

She activated her Shadow Concealment Battle Qi, and with the addition of the Concealment Demonic Mist, she actually managed to disappear without a trace from the room!

Then, Qin He could feel Vildea's sizable softness pressing against him from behind.

"Lord Qin He, am I fast now?"
