Upon receiving the order, a group of people put in their utmost effort, some carrying guns, others grenades and other firearms, and still others being pure superhumans.

The mutated animals also possess some special skills after reaching a higher level. With both firearms and supernatural abilities working together, the beast tide was quickly quelled in this situation where the enemy was weak and we were strong.

A large amount of edible mutated beast meat was supplied to the logistics department, and the base was in an uproar.

This beast tide was defeated far too easily; they hadn't witnessed such an overwhelming victory in a long time.

Zhou Renchang met Jiang Zhi again.

"Your special ability..." Zhou Renchang hesitated, not wanting to explore further, but he had to ask.

Jiang Zhi rubbed the thick fur on Wanfu's belly. She had already prepared her explanation: "Wanfu is a kitten I rescued. It might be a one-in-a-million mutant. You wouldn't capture it to do experiments, would you?"

Zhou Renchang laughed: "No."

Jiang Zhi became wary and said, "Some things are unspoken, we're cooperating, aren't we?"

Zhou Renchang could easily understand the hidden meaning in Jiang Zhi's words. He assured her, "We won't be fools who kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. The apocalypse has come, and humans and animals have undergone varying degrees of mutation. You are just one of the first to do so. Perhaps one day, we will end this absurd apocalypse. Unity is the only way out. Self-harm is too short-sighted. Jiang Zhi, I hope you can help the base as much as possible. We are one. You don't need to doubt or worry. The base will definitely keep its word."

Jiang Zhi had dealt with officials before, and their language was full of deceptive traps; their words and actions were mostly two-faced.

Zhou Renchang's words were indeed reserved.

"I hope to get your promise, and I also hope it won't be a case of 'once the rabbit is caught, the hunting dog is cooked,' otherwise I will be angry." Jiang Zhi narrowed her eyes for a moment, and an invisible aura that could crush everything burst forth. Han Xing at the door felt flustered and immediately opened the door, only to be met with Zhou Renchang's gesture for her to leave.

Zhou Renchang suppressed his surging emotions. He had indeed chosen the right person. Only someone like him could lead humanity into the future. Jiang Zhi should not remain in the position of advisor.

He said, "How about you become my spokesperson starting tomorrow?"

Jiang Zhi opened her eyes: "What do you mean?"

Is this to involve her in the base's internal affairs?

"Move in next door to me, is that alright?" Zhou Renchang's words were undoubtedly reassuring. Jiang Zhi was an extremely dangerous person; if something happened to her at the base, Zhou Renchang, who lived next door, would be the first to suffer.

Zhou Renchang was practically half-buried, so why would he do this? Undoubtedly, it was to give Jiang Zhi the highest level of security.

Zhou Renchang's wife and children perished not long after the end of the world; he was nothing more than a lonely old man in this world.

Jiang Zhi nodded: "That's fine too."

Han Xing was shocked once again. Mr. Zhou actually allowed Jiang Zhi to participate in domestic affairs. Wasn't this a signal, a very dangerous signal for her?

But upon reflection, she understood. What was there that she didn't understand at her current position?

Jiang Zhi's abilities far surpass hers. As long as the base has Jiang Zhi as its anchor, it will never collapse.

This may be Mr. Zhou's most fundamental intention.

There will be more difficulties in the future, and only the strong can suppress the situation. Whether it is physical strength or inner mental strength, Jiang Zhi is stronger than people can imagine.

Jiang Zhi moved from a 10-square-meter dormitory for advanced superhumans to a 20-square-meter single room next to Zhou Renchang's. This room had a partial partition, a bathroom, but no kitchen, and was equipped with a fully automatic washing machine, which, judging from the production date, was ten years old.

In addition, there is a small study and a bedroom. The small study has bookshelves and a desk, and the bedroom is ten square meters and also has a dressing table.

The bed is a 1.2-meter single bed, and to save space to the greatest extent, it was designed with a bunk bed and a wardrobe underneath.

The difference is that this room has windows, and through the bulletproof glass, you can see the outside world.

Jiang Zhi had already determined that the increased light outside meant the clouds were dispersing.

This is a harbinger of the melting ice and snow before the polar night, and also the final celebration as humanity enters the next stage.

After getting ready, Jiang Zhi went out wearing her black down jacket and snow boots.

After her identity changed, most people in the base treated her with a serious and respectful attitude.

Zhou Renchang also assigned her a male assistant named Chen Kun. Chen Kun watched the game today and saw Jiang Zhi's series of actions on the monitor. He thought they were even more amazing than the protagonists in fantasy stories, and he had long been filled with admiration for Jiang Zhi.

He was so happy when he learned that he would be Jiang Zhi's assistant that he couldn't sleep all night.

The next day, when he came to see people with dark circles under his eyes, he was filled with regret.

"Hello, my name is Chen Kun, and I'm your assistant." Chen Kun extended his hand, wanting to shake hands, but Jiang Zhi said, "It's cold, put your hand back."

Chen Kun: She really made me cry my eyes out.

She was so heroic and valiant on the battlefield, but when she spoke in private, she exuded a sense of tranquility, peace, and serenity.

"Okay, please allow me to introduce you to the administrative matters related to the base." Chen Kun held up the documents and began to explain to Jiang Zhi.

This was the first time Jiang Zhi had truly understood the state of humanity since the apocalypse, and it was worse than she had imagined.

The model calculates that the Earth's population is only 300 million, but in reality, 200 million is already a remarkable number.

Among them, the number of survivors from China must be the largest. The Fuxi Base alone has tens of millions of survivors, and people are still arriving in recent days. Perhaps in total, there are still eighty or ninety million survivors left.

Providing logistical support for such a large number of people became a huge problem. With the ice and snow blocking the roads, the innate talents of the Chinese people had nowhere to be displayed.

As the saying goes, even a clever cook can't cook without rice. Apart from the underground land projects, the frozen soil layer above ground is completely unsuitable for planting. Therefore, it is normal for plant-type ability users like 007 to be able to grow plants. Other ability users also go out hunting and mining for resources. Even so, it is difficult to meet their daily needs, and many people are suffering from cold and hunger.

The most pressing problem to be solved is the food issue.

With Jiang Zhi around, this is not a problem.

Another question is why mutant beasts mutate, and how is this energy of crystals generated? Extensive research has revealed that superhumans do not possess crystals, and the origin of the crystals carried by mutant beasts remains unknown.

The base also kept mutated beasts, which would eat each other to improve their strength. The offspring of these mutated beasts were still mutated beasts, and the second-generation mutated beasts also had crystals in their brains.

This indicates that crystals possess the property of inheritance.

But we still don't know where the crystals came from.
