Chen Yu did not object to Feng Xinran's election as the branch secretary of the "Tianyu Base" organization and Xu Long's succession as the head of the resource management department; on the contrary, he immediately expressed his support.

Xu Long and his colleagues were very satisfied with this.

“Secretary Feng, then let’s have a live handover,” Xu Long said with a smile. “You can give me the key to the Tianyu Central Warehouse now.”

Feng Xinran frowned upon hearing this and glanced at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu nodded slightly to her.

Seeing this, Feng Xinran had no choice but to comply and handed the key to the warehouse door to Xu Long.

Xu Long took the key and looked at Chen Yu: "Commander, as far as I know, this key can only open a small part of the rooms in the central warehouse. In order to facilitate my work, I was wondering if I could have the rest of the keys? Don't worry, I will return them to you as soon as I have finished clearing out the supplies inside."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu laughed in anger, but quickly suppressed his emotions and said to Xu Long, "No problem."

As he spoke, he took out the remaining keys to the warehouse and handed them to Xu Long.

After handing the key to Xu Long, Chen Yu suddenly seemed to have aged 10 years. He rubbed his temples wearily and said, "Everyone, I'm a little tired, so I'll go back and rest first."

With that, he turned and walked out of the conference room, and Lin Lele quickly followed.

Feng Xinran and Wei Hongbo also got up to follow, but Chen Yu stopped them with a look.

"Commander, I hope you won't leave the base for the next couple of days. We can discuss the next steps for the base in detail after I've finished taking inventory of the supplies." Xu Long's voice came from behind, his words seemingly carrying a hidden meaning.

Chen Yu didn't turn his head, but raised his hand to indicate that he understood.

He put on his coat and strode out of the conference room, with only Lin Lele following behind him, creating a desolate atmosphere, as if an era had come to an end.

…………

"This is outrageous! Outrageous!" Lin Lele gritted her teeth in anger. "Sir, aren't they clearly bullying us? Are we just going to swallow this insult?"

"Speak less, observe more," Chen Yu said calmly, while glancing at several suspicious-looking people on the road.

Lin Lele understood.

"They actually dared to rebel! I'll kill them!" Lin Lele roared.

"Smack!" Chen Yu slapped her on the head. "You better behave yourself!"

"Oh." Lin Lele pouted, her face clearly showing her dissatisfaction.

"Let's go home first," Chen Yu said in a low voice.

Lin Lele nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this.

Soon, the two hurriedly returned to the entrance of Shibanshan Tunnel.

At this time, more than 30 fully armed soldiers were stationed at the tunnel entrance.

"What do you mean by this?" Chen Yu frowned.

"Commander, we were specially sent by Minister Xu to protect you," the lead soldier said.

"No need, you can go back." Chen Yu waved his hand.

However, no one listened to him, and he immediately understood what they meant.

He gave an awkward laugh: "Alright, then I'll have to trouble you."

Chen Yu ignored them and opened the tunnel entrance gate, walking in one after the other with Lin Lele.

Before he could close the door, the soldiers followed him in.

Chen Yu did not say anything about this.

After they had all gone inside, he closed the door again.

The soldiers who entered the tunnel clutched their guns tightly, keeping their eyes and ears open, clearly prepared to deal with any unexpected situations.

The dim yellow lights inside the tunnel elongated their shadows, making each step seem exceptionally heavy, as if even the air itself was filled with tension and unease.

A short while later, Chen Yu and Lin Lele stopped at a hidden titanium alloy gate.

The gate opens via biometric authentication.

The soldiers tensed up instantly. Two of them carefully looked inside the gate and nodded to the leader.

Chen Yu and Lin Lele were then allowed to enter.

As the two entered, the group of soldiers naturally followed closely behind.

In this narrow passage, everyone seemed to be able to hear each other's heartbeats. As they went deeper, the leading soldier felt a strong sense of unease. He was about to order Chen Yu to stop.

Suddenly, an iron gate fell down in front of him.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and rolled over the iron gate before it completely slammed shut.

"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat~" A burst of gunfire suddenly rang out from the other side of the iron gate, accompanied by a series of screams.

However, the gunshots and screams soon subsided.

The leading soldier was terrified. He had just gotten up from the ground when he felt a gun barrel pressed against his head.

"Who sent you?" Chen Yu asked calmly.

"Minister Xu... Minister Xu." The lead soldier's voice trembled.

"I'm asking you who the real mastermind is behind this?" Chen Yu's voice was icy cold.

"I don't know. Our mission is to take control of your secret sanctuary."

"One last question: how many accomplices do you have? And what is their purpose?" Chen Yu asked.

"These are two issues."

"Enough with the nonsense!" Chen Yu said coldly.

"I...we have a total of..."

Suddenly, the lead soldier launched a counterattack.

"Bang!" With a gunshot, the last soldier fell into a pool of blood.

Chen Yu rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

So many corpses have filthed the entrance passage.

"I'll beat you to death, you bastard! How dare you hold us hostage!" Lin Lele cursed as she kicked the corpse in frustration.

"Alright." Chen Yu stopped Lin Lele from this inhumane act of desecrating the corpse. "Clean the body out first."

Then, he opened the isolation door.

Behind the door, more than 30 corpses lay scattered on the ground, their severed limbs and bloodstains intertwined, creating a shocking scene.

"Yue~" Lin Lele couldn't help but gag.

"Um, I haven't packed my clothes yet, I'll go back and collect them first." After saying that, Lin Lele turned around and got on the elevator without looking back, fleeing in a sorry state.

Chen Yu was speechless; he could no longer count on Lin Lele.

He'll have to collect these bodies.

After thinking for a moment, he opened the interdimensional space and put it all into it. Then he returned to the Stone Slab Mountain Tunnel and threw it all in.

The temperature is extremely low now, so there's no need to worry about the corpses rotting. As long as you can overcome the psychological discomfort, these corpses are not much different from the stones in the tunnel.

After disposing of the body, Chen Yu checked the entrance gate of the Shibanshan Tunnel one last time, fully activated the bunker entrance passage security defense system, and then took the elevator back to the post-apocalyptic bunker.
