The news that Oasis Base had defeated the artificial superhuman force of Xuanwu Base without losing a single member shocked the entire wasteland.

The White Tiger Base, which had been trying its best to get support, immediately quieted down after learning the outcome.

The Azure Dragon Base and the Vermilion Bird Base tacitly ceased hostilities, and an eerie silence descended upon the wasteland.

But the Oasis Base, having won its first battle, did not stop. Before anyone noticed, the Oasis Base team directly reached the border of the Xuanwu Base!

Previously, combat tanks were only used in large-scale battles with thousands of players, and their firepower was not significant enough.

But now, with more than ten battle tanks bombarding it at full force, the scene is no longer a turn-based game where you fire one shot and I fire one shot; it's a complete destruction!

The Oasis Base's counterattack was incredibly powerful; within half a day, it destroyed four of the Xuanwu Base's strongholds!

It's the kind of destruction that leaves only ruins!

Li Weidong brought his men to meet with Fang Qingdai, but was directly rejected without any room for negotiation!

After the fifth stronghold was destroyed, Xuanwu Base finally couldn't sit still any longer and softened its stance. It asked through the other three parties what Oasis Base wanted before it would stop.

The response from Oasis Base was that Xuanwu Base was surrendering to Oasis Base and signing a pledge never to develop nuclear weapons again.

If the contract is violated, Oasis Base, Azure Dragon Base, and Vermilion Bird Base will join forces to punish Black Tortoise Base.

Actually, there were only Oasis Base and Azure Dragon Base at the beginning.

However, the Vermilion Bird Base's attitude has been strange recently. Not only did it take the initiative to help hold back the White Tiger Base's reinforcements, but it also offered to join in when it learned that the Oasis Base and the Azure Dragon Base were putting pressure on the Black Tortoise Base.

Zhang Jie was responsible for communication and liaison.

Fang Qingdai almost thought that Zhang Jie, that old man, had gone completely mad with love and had persuaded the base to go to such lengths to please Mao Min.

The Xuanwu base suddenly fell silent.

"They disagree, are they preparing for another war?" Fang Qingdai frowned, wondering what other trump cards the Xuanwu Base might have up its sleeve.

She was certainly not so naive as to think that the Xuanwu Base was truly at its end.

The reason they pursued them so relentlessly was that they wanted to take this opportunity to push them and find out what the other side was really up to.

Signing any treaty is meaningless; it may be insulting, but it's not very binding.

How much morality can you expect from a wasteland base that conducts human experiments?

The combined sanctions and siege from the three parties might frighten them, but there are no eternal alliances in the wasteland. The Vermilion Bird Base, which has now come knocking on their door, might just join the Black Tortoise Base's side tomorrow.

Therefore, the only true suppressors are the Oasis Base and the Azure Dragon Base.

If the Xuanwu base has enough trump cards to deal with the siege of the two major bases, it will certainly not sign the agreement, much less surrender.

Fang Qingdai wanted to push them a bit, to see if the other side could reveal their hand at this point.

Judging from the attitude of the Xuanwu Base, it seems that its trump card has already been formed. Although it is not willing to reveal it now, it is also not willing to bow down to the Oasis Base.

"What do you mean? Should we continue the offensive?" Jing Yi asked Fang Qingdai.

Fang Qingdai thought for a moment and shook her head: "Five strongholds are enough for today. We also need to give Xuanwu Base some time to consider. Our team members are also quite tired."

"Let's go back and rest for three days. If the Xuanwu Base hasn't given us a response by then, we'll come back!"

The battle raged from the Oasis Base to the Xuanwu Base, leaving not only the ordinary team members exhausted, but also Fang Qingdai herself.

Although the initial beast tide was aided by the red fox and the paulownia tree, Fang Qingdai herself suffered considerable losses due to the sheer scale of the beast tide.

Afterwards, they continued to fight and travel around, and even the strongest person couldn't withstand it.

After returning to base from Oasis Base, everyone quickly ate a meal and then went to rest and adjust their condition.

Fang Qingdai also tried to catch up on her sleep, but she was awakened by a loud knocking on the door shortly after she fell asleep!

"Base Commander, something's happened at the base!"

Fang Qingdai suddenly jumped up from the bed; she had already recognized Mao Ling's voice!

"What is it?" She took a few barefoot steps to the door, opened it, and looked at Mao Ling, who was covered in sweat outside.

"Several superhumans in the base are experiencing vomiting and diarrhea. The ordinary people are experiencing problems later, but their reactions are more severe. Since the first patient was discovered, three ordinary people have already passed away..."

Upon hearing that someone had passed away, Fang Qingdai's mind went blank.

"Have you found the cause of the illness?" she asked, trying her best to calm herself down. She quickly put on her shoes and coat and followed Mao Ling outside.

"Not yet. Blood tests have been conducted, and autopsies have been arranged for the deceased members, but the results are not yet available."

"Is the treatment not working?"

Mao Ling frowned: "Grade B and below are completely ineffective. Grade A medicine can only temporarily slow down the progression of the patient's condition. My treatment with my special ability can only achieve a similar effect to Grade A medicine."

Fang Qingdai was surprised that even Grade A medicine couldn't cure it?

Mao Ling continued, "After I used my superpower to probe inside, I sensed a very strong devouring force. That thing was devouring human cells."

"After experiencing diarrhea in the upper abdomen, the patient will quickly progress to vomiting blood and passing bloody stools, followed by bleeding from all seven orifices, and finally die from vomiting blood!"

"The force I detected is destroying human blood clotting cells."

It's very similar to snake venom.

But how could so many people simultaneously exhibit symptoms of poisoning? If someone were truly bitten by a snake, it's impossible for so many patients to be completely unaware.

Most importantly, snake venom is not contagious; at least, it is impossible to transmit without contact with an open wound.

But the situation at the base clearly indicates an infection, or perhaps a mass poisoning?

During their conversation, the two hurried to the hospital building of the Oasis Base. As soon as they entered, they saw a dense crowd of people!

"Base Commander, Dr. Mao, you've finally arrived!"

A doctor in a white coat jogged over, wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead, and said anxiously, "The number of patients is increasing; it's already over a hundred!"

Fang Qingdai's heart sank!

But she had experienced three years of isolation, so she was a little more experienced in dealing with this kind of situation.

She decisively declared: "All medical staff must wear protective suits and avoid physical contact with patients. The hospital must be locked down, and all patients who enter must be isolated and treated; no one is allowed to leave!"

She looked at Mao Ling and said, "Send me the test report as soon as possible. I'll wait for you in your office."

She hurried into Mao Ling's office and immediately contacted Jing Yi: "Send a broadcast notification that everyone stay where they are, maintain their personal space, put on protective suits, open up an unmanned passage, and send a team to patrol the base. If any patients are found, transfer them to the hospital through the unmanned passage."

Jing Yi, who had just stepped out of the office, stopped in his tracks, immediately turned back, and closed the doors and windows.
