Lu Sheng's attention was drawn to the mountain of test cards piled up inside the window.

She saw it clearly: after the couple submitted their test cards, the staff at the window compared them with a colored sheet of paper.

There are a total of 8 colored blocks on the colored paper, which correspond to the superpower levels from level one to level eight.

"I never imagined that technology here has developed so quickly, that it's possible to test a person's ability level with just a drop of blood." Sun Tiantian, who is naturally sensitive to color, quickly noticed the clue.

Xu Yi gentlemanly shielded the women in the group from his body, saying, "It's probably testing the activity level of supernatural abilities in the blood. The higher the activity level, the higher the level of supernatural abilities, indicating abundant supernatural abilities in the body."

Looking at the couple who were lying on the ground wailing in the distance, Zhang Xiaojuan said with a sigh, "They make it sound nice on the radio, but in reality, you still have to compete fiercely here. It seems like you can't escape this kind of competition in your life."

As expected, true equality for all will never exist, no matter the time. As long as there are people, there will be competition, and the scarcity of resources means that only by fighting tooth and nail can one survive.

Seeing that there were too many people in line, two more windows were opened at the ability testing area. Lu Sheng and her group were directed to the third window, suddenly becoming the first in line.

As Lu Sheng took the test card, he pondered how to deal with Shi Nian.

Shi Nian is, after all, a half-zombie. If his blood composition is different from that of other people, he will definitely be exposed on the spot.

If she gets targeted by the government base, she needs to quickly devise a strategy that allows her to both advance and retreat.

Just as Lu Sheng was distributing the test cards to her companions behind her, the middle-aged man who had just come out to maintain order suddenly passed by them.

"New here?" The man stopped and looked Lu Sheng and the others up with a smile.

Shi Nian rolled her eyes at the pot-bellied man, focused on fiddling with the test card, and wrinkled her delicate little nose. "Sister, I don't want to prick my finger, it hurts so much... Can I not do this?"

Why does the young lady have to do the test herself?!

Before the apocalypse, she was a pampered rich young lady with ten delicate fingers that had never done any housework. They were as tender as scallions, and it would hurt a lot if you pricked them!

"Okay, if you don't want to get a puncture, then don't. Uncle will take you inside, okay?" The middle-aged man who had been smiling and observing them suddenly said something surprising.

The innocent Shi Nian didn't even notice him, "Okay, okay! Thank you, Uncle! You're so kind, Uncle!"

Her sweet words, like honey, made the middle-aged man almost float away, calling him "uncle" repeatedly.

Lu Sheng raised her head warily and saw that the man's eyes were glued to Shi Nian, and the desire in his eyes was obvious.

"You old pervert," Zhang Xiaojuan muttered in a voice only they could hear.

The middle-aged man gave the person at the window a wink, and they handed out a registration form and a pass.

“Our base is designed to provide a safe haven for survivors. I see you are all good kids, so I will make an exception and let you pass this time.”

The man's disgusted gaze shifted from Shi Nian to Lu Sheng and Sun Tiantian, his ugly thoughts clearly showing on his face, but he still had to pretend to be righteous.

“My name is Li Zhiqiang, you can call me Uncle Li. You can ask me anything if you need anything at the base, and don’t hesitate to ask if you need anything. Don’t be shy with your uncle.”

Lu Sheng and the others remained silent, following quietly behind Li Zhiqiang.

We'll use this guy to get into the base first, and once we're inside and find out about the vaccine, we'll properly "thank" this old man.

Discontented voices immediately arose from the back of the line.

"Why are these people allowed to enter without being tested?"

"Exactly! Is there no order at all?! You can just release whoever you want!"

"Damn it, I wish I had a brothel, then women would get preferential treatment everywhere!"

Faced with escalating doubts and dissatisfaction, Li Zhiqiang stopped.

The next second, without warning, he pulled out a pistol, aimed it at the area where the loudest sound had just come from, and casually picked his ear with his little finger. "Come on, whoever has a problem, step forward and say it to my face."

Just moments ago they were arguing fiercely, but as soon as Li Zhiqiang pulled out his pistol, all fell silent.

"Anyone with a problem or complaints, speak up now. If you don't want to stay, you can get out immediately. The base has no shortage of people; if you don't come in, plenty of others will!"

The group looked at each other, none of them willing to be the first to speak out.

Those who made it this far are the cream of the crop among the survivors, each possessing considerable individual strength. However, even with superior abilities, there's always the risk of infection. The zombie virus vaccine is like an apple dangling in front of a donkey; as long as it's available, these people have no choice but to swallow their anger.

"No one's going to say anything? No objections, huh? If you don't have any objections, then line up properly and keep order."

Seeing that no one spoke, Li Zhiqiang smugly put away his gun.

"Did I scare you? Don't worry, your uncle will protect you from now on, no one will dare to say anything." Turning his head, Li Zhiqiang spoke softly to Lu Sheng and the others.

"Thank you, Uncle! I'm sorry to have troubled you." Shi Nian bowed obediently.

The group followed Li Zhiqiang into the base. Along the way, everyone they encountered looked at Lu Sheng and the other girls with a mixture of curiosity and amusement.

The meaning behind that ambiguous gaze was obvious without much thought.

Originally, Li Zhiqiang was going to arrange dormitories for Lu Sheng and the others himself, but he suddenly received a notice from his superiors and could only hurriedly hand the group over to the dormitory manager, give a few more instructions, and then leave in a hurry.

Before leaving, he couldn't resist making a lecherous remark to Shi Nian, "I'll take you out to dinner when I'm done with work tonight."

The dormitory manager was busy tidying up the warehouse. After dealing with Li Zhiqiang, he left the group on the first floor and told them to wait for the time being.
