Five years into the apocalypse, Zhuang Mingxu, the strongest ability user in the safe zone, was killed by his so-called “family.”
Lu Weiyi, who had been indifferent to everything for over...
Chapter 838: The Passage is Attacked
Not long after Li Zhuang's suggestion was put forward, Ning Yuan took charge of implementing it.
One is shameless in words, the other puts that shamelessness into action.
As expected, all the teams that came expressed their willingness to go, and there were quite a few people with special abilities.
Ning Yuan came back with the list, his whole body radiating ease and comfort. "There are nearly eight hundred people with special abilities in their bases alone. The lowest is top-level A-level, and there are more than three hundred S-level. Qi Lin has been back and forth several times along the way. The level of the mutant creatures is not high. With these people, safety will be greatly increased."
Having said this, Ning Yuan still asked whether he should transfer a few more SS-level psychics to go together.
"I can't free up some time for now, so let's focus on the base first. How are Golden Eagle and the others?" Lu Weiyi thought of the few psychics that were left behind by Golden Eagle last time.
"They stay indoors all day long. It is said that even those with the least ability have become one level stronger," Ning Yuan envied. "Why haven't I heard any good news about Xu Sa and Qing Ji?"
These are the two members of their team who have not yet succeeded in upgrading. Recently, whenever they have time, they stay in the basement to absorb as much energy as possible.
Ning Yuan suddenly looked at Lu Weiyi with a burning look, "The energy below has been so weak these past few days that it is almost undetectable. Is there any way to strengthen it?"
Lu Weiyi looked at the several mutant squid tentacles that he had sealed in the static side of the space. Their energy was also dissipating, but at a much slower speed.
"Are you sure you want to leave it here?" They were already leaving, and it would be a waste to leave it here.
Ning Yuan also thought of this and immediately waved his hand, "Let's go back and do it."
People did gather together, after all under the banner of helping. Lu Weiyi still came out to express his gratitude before leaving. Wu Yue neatly organized a dinner party as a token of gratitude.
This time he also met Li Zhuang's so-called son Li Hua. Compared with the group of burly men around him, Li Hua was indeed not very tall, and with his immature face, he looked more like a half-grown child.
He followed Li Zhuang and greeted people from various bases. Li Zhuang was generous in promoting him. Li Hua was humble and looked like a good junior.
Lu Weiyi, who arrived late, did not intend to have dinner with them. He just came over to express his gratitude. As the base commander, his words showed more respect than those of Ning Yuan and the others.
Many teams that have emerged recently also showed up at this time, and Lu Weiyi was formally introduced to Wen Yan and others.
Even though they had met several times before, Lu Weiyi still introduced himself seriously and said polite words as if it was the first time they met, and then expressed the routine thanks.
During this period, he also met Lin Ya from the Pingjin base. Lin Ya, who had been worried and thought about many possibilities, couldn't say how she felt after receiving the same treatment. She felt that she had betrayed them and was always worried about being retaliated against.
But in her heart she felt that following the other party was not bad, as she would gain much more than she had given. However, her nature made her unwilling to be someone else's puppet. She knew she was not wrong and even made preparations for her own reasons, but the other party acted as if nothing had happened, which made all her uneasiness and even the words she had prepared become a joke.
It was as if she was not as important as imagined, and she had always been overthinking it.
Lin Ya couldn't help but chase after Lu Weiyi after he left because of the feeling of unwillingness. In a public place, Lu Weiyi was accompanied by people with special abilities, and Lin Ya was stopped outside before she could get close to him.
Lu Weiyi turned around and saw him, and there was no abnormal expression on his face. It was not a good feeling that everything was so calm that it made people feel that he had it all under control. Lin Ya's face became even uglier.
But she knew her own strength, "Captain Lu, long time no see."
"Long time no see. Do you have something to talk to me about?" Lu Weiyi went straight to the point.
“……”Lin Ya.
She wanted to explain why she had removed the bomb from her body and wanted to talk about the latest situation at the base, but the other party didn't even bother to ask, leaving her at a loss for words.
Lu Weiyi didn't wait for an answer. He checked the time and found that he had to leave first - he had to go to the Kyoto base first to help them take away the supplies.
Before Lin Ya could think of what to say, the door not far away was pushed open again, and Li Zhuang walked out, saying something to Li Hua who was following behind him. The other party looked up and listened with a serious look on his face.
Seeing this situation, Li Zhuang paused and did not move forward.
Lu Weiyi had no intention of inviting Lin Ya to change places to talk with him. It was not convenient to talk about private topics in this environment. Lin Ya was silent for a moment, and finally asked, "Is there any food for sale at Yuebanwan Base? We don't have enough food, and I want to exchange some."
Lu Weiyi shook his head and said, "You know, food is not abundant in various bases nowadays."
Yueban Bay has been consuming a huge amount of manpower in planting crops since the beginning of the apocalypse, which is why the base is not facing a food crisis today, but this does not mean that they can sell at will.
"Is there nothing in short supply?"
"Definitely," Lu Weiyi said frankly, "but food is the most important thing for people, and everything else can only be considered if we survive."
Lin Ya didn't say anything else, and Lu Weiyi didn't ask her to go to other bases to ask. The fact that they could treat so many people to a not-so-shabby meal here already showed that their base was quite wealthy.
The food crisis has already begun to emerge, and no base will give up food for other things at this time.
Seeing that she had nothing else to say, Lu Weiyi nodded and said goodbye. Li Zhuang followed in two or three steps and said, "Let me introduce you to my son Li Hua. I don't need to introduce you to our base commander, right?"
He didn't speak to Li Hua like an elder, but in a nonchalant and unserious manner.
However, this attitude was extremely well accepted by Li Hua, a man who had been raised to be cautious in his words and actions.
"Hello, base commander. I'm Li Hua, an A-level earth-type mutant. I'm currently in charge of base construction with Captain Ji." Because of his relationship with Li Zhuang, Li Hua has been in contact with members on the top of Yueban Bay. After such a long period of training, the inferiority complex he felt because of Zhao Qiang has been reduced a lot, and he speaks seriously.
"Hello, follow Wu Yue on this trip." He will help as much as possible when there is danger.
"Okay, I..."
A loud "boom" interrupted Li Hua's words. Lu Weiyi's mental power instantly stretched out, and when he saw the place where the accident happened, he strode out.
Outside, Ma Liu, an earth-type mutant who came with Ji Qian's team, was being led by the guards towards Lu Weiyi.
"Base Commander!"
A tall, sturdy Ma Liu ran towards this side. The ground made a thumping sound as he ran, and the fat hanging from his body trembled, making Lu Weiyi's eyelids twitch constantly.
After he came to various bases here, he was dispatched to the underground passage to ensure that no one would discover the situation there.
Lu Weiyi strode towards him, "What's going on?"
"Go and follow your Uncle Wu," Li Zhuang said to Li Hua, following Lu Weiyi's footsteps.
"Base commander, a few days ago Ji Qian and I felt that there were earth-type mutants using their powers to explore the area around our base, but they appeared and disappeared from time to time, so we didn't catch them. So I had people increase the guards in the passage. Today, they were very accurately exploring the location of the underground passage, and we discovered them and started fighting them."
As soon as you enter the coast, you can immediately see that the edge of the coastal cliff to the southeast has obviously collapsed, revealing a new layer of soil and an obviously opened passage hidden in it.
At this time, there were still people fighting with superpowers. Compared with everyone's powerful control over superpowers nowadays, the fight there was so immature that it seemed like a newly awakened superpower.
"There are not many combat-type psychics over there, and we..." Ma Liu's lips trembled but he still said truthfully, "We haven't fought."
"Fortunately, the supernatural powers there are suppressed. They control the soil layer and no one can leave from underground."
"Xu Sa went to provide support?" Lu Weiyi saw the crackling sound of electric current in the air, which was particularly conspicuous against the blue sky.
However, when the electric current, which was as thick as an arm, hit the cliff, it seemed to be weakened by something and became much thinner, and its power was greatly reduced.
"Yes, it was Mr. Xu and Captain Li Qing of the second team who led the group there."
The noise was so loud that it alarmed a group of people who were eating inside. Now all kinds of disasters can be seen everywhere, and everyone is already frightened. When they heard the noise, they immediately followed out and naturally saw this scene.
Originally, few people would think about the space channel. After all, Lu Weiyi always went to the Yuebanwan Base. Even if someone wanted to explore, they would only think that such a place would be protected in the center of their base.
However, the other party was not easy to deal with. Even with the participation of Xu Sa and Li Qing, they were unable to control him immediately. They even dragged Xu Sa and the others away from the cliff.
Xu Sa and his companions were also forced to suppress their supernatural powers and were unable to exert their full abilities. They even had to engage in close combat. Naturally, they were aware of the other party's intentions and intended to condone them.
But no one expected that the destination of this group of people was actually in the direction where Lu Weiyi was.
Just when Xu Sa and Li Qing suspected that these people were carried away, they heard that there was a hidden speed-related ability user among them. He suddenly accelerated so fast that they could not catch it with the naked eye, but the sound seemed to be amplified by a loudspeaker and spread across the vast beach.
"The Kyoto Science Institute has calculated that solar storms will continue for another five years. Yueban Bay received the news long ago and evacuated in a hurry."
"That's where the space channel is--".
The echo resounded throughout the entire beach, and Xu Sa's heart tightened. No, they were wrong. These people were not fleeing aimlessly at all. Instead, they were heading towards the psychics who came out from various bases behind Lu Weiyi.
A giant net of interwoven electric arcs suddenly opened up in the air, covering everyone on the beach, as if intending to catch a turtle in a jar.
However, when this wind-like figure passed by Lu Weiyi, it seemed to suddenly hit an invisible barrier. The whole person was bounced into the air, fell heavily to the ground, spit out a mouthful of blood, and quickly disappeared into the sand.
