After Apocalypse, I Got Rich With Superpower
Chapter 168 - 166: Counseling

Chapter 168: Chapter 166: Counseling

Li Pan reaching the Zhenhua Level was exceptional news, benefiting not only the base but the entire country.

Zhenhua-level superpower users are in short supply; even now, they haven’t managed to gather all the Five Elements. Within their base, there are two from the Wood Element, Pei Yuan and Li Pan.

This was undoubtedly a great achievement, representing the Base Commander’s capabilities.

There are also two in the imperial capital, and the other bases each have two, totaling six people, yet they have not managed to gather all the Five Elements.

Li Pan is the youngest among the Zhenhua-level superpower users and the most talented, embodying limitless future possibilities.

She is also the only pharmacist who has mastered the production of all medicines, something the others cannot achieve, either missing one or two types of medicine.

This is the main reason the government sends people to search for Crystal Cores for her; her death would create a gap again.

As long as she lived, she could train countless high-level superpower users, which would ultimately be different.

After the celebration, Li Pan quietly went to the Spirit Plant Area and sat silently under the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit Tree, not saying a word.

The night air was cool, as winter was approaching, and it was somewhat cold.

Her heart was in turmoil, sitting here allowed her a moment of tranquility.

Xue Dong and Pei Yuan came looking for her; not finding her elsewhere, they guessed she would be here.

Pei Yuan gestured with his hand for Xue Dong to go back first; he would go and have a chat with Pan’er.

"Uncle, what brings you here?"

"I came to check on the Spirit Plant. I heard from Lingzi that the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit will ripen in a few days, and I came to have a look because I was worried."

"They are almost ripe, save three for making medicine."

"Your Uncle Wang says to turn them all into medicine; the success rate of awakening is higher, safer, as the Spiritual Fruit is too precious to waste."

Li Pan nodded upon hearing Pei Yuan’s words.

Pei Yuan passed her a bottle of water.

"It’s the milk tea Mi Le gave me; I don’t like it, so you drink it."

Li Pan took it and drank, as she was just thirsty.

"Life is really good now; we even have milk tea to drink. I used to grow mint to make tea for rinsing the mouth."

"Right, those days were so hard, incomparable to now."

Pei Yuan also nodded, smiling.

"Am I being too melodramatic? I know full well how hard it is to obtain an Eighth-level Crystal Core, I know... yet I can’t give it up, it’s a bit fake to say I don’t know. I’m aware that people will sacrifice for me, I’m holding onto a one-in-a-million chance, maybe nobody will have to sacrifice."

"When I advanced to a higher level, I thought the same, but eventually, it was my brothers who exchanged a Crystal Core for me, my brothers who weathered the storm with me, giving up their lives for a Crystal Core."

"Back then, there were no Awakening Potions. Your Uncle Wang and the brothers, in order to build the planting area, absolutely needed to train a high-level superpower user. Being the first high-level Wood Power User made it extremely important."

Pei Yuan looked up at the bright, brilliant starry sky above the farm. The sky here was always very clean and transparent, the stars twinkling like beautiful gems.

"I waited for a long time, eventually losing three brothers; I became a high-level superpower user, and the planting area was established. Because I became a high-level superpower user, the Base Commander was able to apply for the best protective equipment, everything went smoothly, only my brothers were gone..."

Pei Yuan breathed out deeply.

Li Pan looked at him, admiring him greatly, as those times were even more difficult than now, his pressure was only greater than hers, not less.

"Uncle..."

"I just wanted to tell you that some things always come at a price. But I kept thinking, I advanced, the plantation area was built, many people at the base survived, even if they couldn’t eat their fill, they could still scrape together a little food with tightened belts, which is better than nothing, right?"

"I was lucky, when I entered the Peak Transformation Period, I had the Seventh-level Crystal Core you brought back, and I succeeded naturally."

"This time, I wasn’t as lucky as you."

Li Pan thought of the warriors who had sacrificed themselves for her, her heart still aching bitterly, how could anyone be utterly heartless, it was hard to repay the debt of conscience.

"No, you can’t think like that, you are the youngest and most talented superpower user, they might not know you but they have heard of your deeds, and because you are worth it, people sacrificed themselves for you without hesitation, this only happens with acknowledgment, it cannot be forced."

Pei Yuan chuckled softly, raising his hand to pat her head.

Li Pan opened her mouth wanting to say something, but didn’t know what to say.

"You need to understand something, after you advanced to a High-level superpower user, the responsibilities you bear grew even heavier, and when you made all those medicines, you no longer were just yourself, nor only focusing on taking care of your farm, but from today onwards, you carry the life and death of many people on your shoulders."

"I remember that, I will take up the responsibilities that belong to me, pass on kindness and responsibility, let more people afford medicines, fill their stomachs, and have better lives."

Pei Yuan smiled and nodded, his face full of satisfaction.

Actually, this child understood everything in her heart, just couldn’t get over the emotional hurdle, it was hard to accept the debt of conscience for a moment.

"Uncle, give me some time, if there are any unfulfilled last wishes of the martyrs, tell me anything I can help with, I am willing to help both physically and financially."

Li Pan pleaded earnestly.

"I will definitely tell you."

Pei Yuan smiled and nodded.

"By the way, there is something you can help with now."

"What is it?"

"This time, the forces that helped you were selected by the government from Yanglan Base near the imperial capital, they have also ordered products from your farm before, there is a school, an orphanage, and a nursing home there, they seemed to be quite strapped for cash, if you are willing, you might start by donating some money to the orphanage."

"Sure, is there anything else I can do? I can make some Awakening Potions for the kids, after all, those with superpowers have better prospects and children with superpowers get more attention."

"That’s possible, I’ll ask the Base Commander and get back to you with the exact needs, you prepare some money and medicines, and also send some food and necessary supplies, bring a few bottles of High-level Potion as well, to show your support to their base."

"Okay, I understand."

"Don’t appear in person, I’ll have Uncle Wang deliver the gift in the name of the base and your farm, to avoid people trying to blackmail you, the martyrs don’t have relatives, and I’m worried some might misuse the martyrs’ names for medicine."

"Alright."

Pei Yuan didn’t persuade further but started discussing some minor issues to be mindful of at the Zhenhua Level and what skill areas to focus on and strengthen during their next advancement, and how it differed from previous superpower stages, both exchanged ideas pleasantly.

Li Pan and Pei Yuan talked for a long while, and it was dark by the time they returned.

After resting for a few days and adjusting her mood, Li Pan started the purification and grooming of the farm, temporarily not needing to channel superpower anymore.

At the time of advancement, she had channeled a lot of superpower into the farm, causing many crops to mature early, now the workers were extremely busy, working overtime in the fields.

The base was responsible for transportation, continuously shipping out produce.

This advancement also greatly benefited the farm, the immense energy filled the land, allowing Spirit Trees and other Spirit Plants that demand more spiritual energy to absorb eighty percent of it, growing significantly.

The overall soil environment of the farm improved tremendously, it could be said that it had advanced to another level, currently, the farm environment was exceptionally good, long-term residence on the farm could have great health benefits.
