Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system
Chapter 70 Early Termination Of WorkThat corpse was really strong, and David collected the crystals. He originally planned to go upstairs and take a look, but after this battle, their fighting strength had been weakened.
David didn't know the situation upstairs, and he hesitated to continue going up with the injured. "Let's go back for now," David said to Sally and Brian.
"Are we just going back like this?" Sally took a step forward and spoke. David glanced at Brian and nodded, and Sally understood what he was worried about, so she held back her words.
"Let's go," Sally replied with lowered eyes. She had thought she could accompany David to collect more crystals, but unexpectedly, they encountered such a tough situation shortly after coming out. Ultimately, it was because her strength was not enough. She needed to go back and absorb more crystals!
David approached and helped Brian up. "About that..."
Brian spoke softly, "Thank you."
Listening to Brian's gratitude, David didn't say anything. He just kept supporting him and moving forward. David drove the car and took everyone back home.

Lily ignored her own weakness and hurriedly ran to Brian's side. She crouched down and immediately noticed his severely broken leg, causing her eyebrows to furrow.
"Lily." Brian looked at Lily's appearance, wanting to comfort her, but she interrupted him.
"Don't worry, I can heal you." Lily said, closing her eyes. She placed her hands on Brian's leg, and with a focused mind, a faint green light emitted from her hands.
David crossed his arms and leaned against the wall, silently watching. Lily's healing ability was only at level two, and Brian's injury was a broken bone. Could she heal it?
As David thought, Lily's healing ability at level two could only stop Brian's bleeding and heal the surface wounds. However, for the deeper injuries within the bone, her current abilities were still insufficient.
"What should we do?" Lily tried again and again to heal Brian's leg, but it was in vain.
Seeing Lily's expression, Brian felt sorry and said, "Lily, it's okay, just a minor issue." As he spoke, Brian gently rubbed Lily's hair.
"But..." Lily hadn't finished speaking when David, who was standing beside them, calmly took out two healing crystals. "Absorb them."
David said coldly. He still held some doubts about this couple. Two crystals would test whether Lily's healing abilities could level up. Even if they did level up, would a third-level healing ability be able to treat deep bone injuries?
Tears welled up in Lily's eyes as she bit her lip and took the crystals handed to her by David. "Thank you," she said through gritted teeth, expressing her gratitude.
Turning her head, Lily said to Brian, "Wait for me, I'll be right back." Brian nodded in response.
Lily held the two crystals in her hands and walked into a nearby room. Just before she entered the room, she unintentionally glanced back at Brian. When David looked in Lily's direction, she had already closed the door.
David squinted slightly and glanced at Brian. Then, he tugged on Arnold's sleeve and took him to the side. "I'll go back for a while. If something seems off or if Lily comes out having healed Brian, let me know immediately."
As soon as David finished speaking, Arnold's face turned serious for a moment, and he agreed to David's request. David returned home with Sally, a cat, and a dog.
"I'm sorry..." as they entered, Sally gently tugged at David's clothes and whispered.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDavid turned his head, looking puzzled at Sally. He held her face in his hands, gazing at her with concern. Sally's presence gave him a different feeling in this post-apocalyptic world, something he had never experienced in his previous life.
Sally looked up at him with a pitiful expression, and then she hugged David directly. "It's all my fault. If I were stronger, we wouldn't have had to come back so soon."
Hearing her words, David chuckled helplessly. He rubbed Sally's head tenderly and said softly, "What are you talking about? It's not your fault." After that, he held Sally horizontally in his arms and carried her back to the room, carefully placing her on the bed and covering her with a blanket.
Sitting by the bedside, David said, "Just rest well for now and don't push yourself too hard." He gently brushed his hand over Sally's forehead, feeling a tingling sensation in his heart.
Sally's eyes were tinged with a faint red color as she softly responded, "Mm." If the apocalypse hadn't come, perhaps there wouldn't have been a chance for him and Sally. Once Sally fell asleep, David left the room. He didn't close the door, fearing that something unexpected might happen.
After leaving the room, David sat on the sofa in the living room and took out ten spatial crystals from his space all at once. The room was devoid of any light due to the curtains blocking out the outside. The white glow emitted from the spatial crystals in David's palm was more intense than yellow. Without hesitation, he absorbed the ten spatial crystals, one by one.
David didn't feel any discomfort after absorbing the ten crystals. Could it be that he had reached a limit? David was stunned for a moment, then took out forty spatial crystals at once. He only had a total of one hundred spatial crystals, and he didn't know if he would encounter any spatial mutation zombies after consuming them all. It was only when he absorbed twenty crystals that David's body reacted.
David cried out in pain. He clutched his abdomen and rolled to the ground, sweating profusely on his forehead within a minute. It hurt so much. This time it was even more painful than before. It felt like it was going to take his life directly!
In agony, David covered his stomach and bit his lip, refusing to make any noise, afraid of disturbing Sally who was resting in the room. After about half an hour, the pain in David's body subsided. He took a deep breath, stood up, and twisted his body, which immediately produced cracking sounds.
"Feels good." David sighed and looked at the remaining twenty crystals on the sofa. He speculated that he hadn't reached the limit yet.
The next moment, David picked up the crystals from the sofa and continued absorbing them. This time, each time David absorbed one, his bones made cracking sounds. With each crystal absorbed, it felt as if his body was being scraped by a knife. As long as there was no limit, David was determined to absorb all the remaining twenty crystals!
