Thinking of this, Jiang Zhi stopped sleeping, buttoned up her coral fleece pajamas, sat cross-legged, and began to circulate her internal energy.

She must cultivate the "Ten Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart" skill to the point where it has the ability to attack multiple targets simultaneously.

However, Jiang Zhi overlooked one point: with her current abilities, being able to fight a level-three mutated animal was already one in ten thousand. Nowadays, no superhuman could possibly fight a level-three mutated animal alone; even a level-two was a stretch.

"We must keep a close eye on this ability user named Jiang Zhi. Judging from the mutated python's gallbladder, this snake is at least level two or above. The fact that she can fight against it shows how strong she is. If we can recruit her into the base, the strength of the Shuofang base will be greatly enhanced."

In the office, Liu Zhiwei sat on the left, while a man wearing a green military overcoat and framed glasses stood in front of the blue blackboard, writing on the blackboard with chalk in his hand.

This is Zhang Zhaohe, the research director of the Special Abilities Department at the base.

“Our investigation revealed that Jiang Zhi arrived at the base in December and has been largely socially isolated. She has received two base missions, both of which she completed successfully,” Liu Zhiwei added, holding a handwritten document in his hand.

"This girl is 24 years old this year. The registration information shows that she is a local of Jiangcheng. Her family should be relatively well-off before the apocalypse. We sent people to check the car she drives. The whole car has been modified. The glass is bulletproof. The total value is over one million."

"In addition, she has never registered with the base's ability department."

Zhang Zhaohe nodded: "Yes, we must win her over. We should try our best to meet any of her requests."

"Zhou Heng, I heard you and Jiang Zhi have a past relationship." Liu Zhiwei looked at Zhou Heng, who was engrossed in something.

Upon hearing someone call his name, Zhou Heng immediately stood up straight.

"Reporting to the director, I have met Jiang Zhi a few times."

"Very good, I'll leave this matter to you. No matter what, you must make sure Jiang Zhi feels a sense of belonging in the base and can unite around it."

When Zhang Zhaohe gave the order, Zhou Heng was overjoyed for a moment, but soon regained his composure.

Jiang Zhi is a tough nut to crack; he's afraid he won't be able to handle her at all.

The heavy snow fell for three days in a row, and as far as the eye could see, the entire base was covered in a blanket of white.

Fortunately, she opened the rooftop door the night before last and then blocked it with a wooden board, otherwise the rooftop would have been sealed off.

The snow on the top floor must be cleared away. If it piles up more and more, when the weather gets extremely hot and the temperature rises directly, the snow will melt, and she, who lives on the seventh floor, will be the first to be affected.

After all the snow was collected into her space, Jiang Zhi immediately began training her physical fitness on the rooftop. The walls here were high, so no one could see her.

Weightlifting is fundamental, and after two hours of training, Jiang Zhi was drenched in sweat.

After taking a relaxing hot bath in the space and trimming her long hair, Jiang Zhi came out in her pajamas and found Wan Fu chasing a white butterfly.

Where did this butterfly come from?

Could it be that the insect eggs brought in by those potted plants and seeds hatched into butterflies?

Jiang Zhi then discovered that there were actually bees on the mountain.

Could they have all been accidentally brought in while collecting supplies?

Bees are wonderful things!

She almost forgot that plants need pollination to bear fruit, and bees are one of the pollination methods.

Although the flow of time in this space is similar to that in the outside world, it has remained spring-like all year round for so many months. The fruit trees she planted have all grown tall and have spread their branches and leaves.

There are also various flowers, vying for attention in their beauty.

It contrasts sharply with the snow-covered landscape outside.

"Jiang Wanfu, come here." Jiang Zhi picked a rose and beckoned to Wanfu.

The little guy was playing with his tail when he heard Jiang Zhi call him. He immediately turned around and called out to Jiang Zhi, "Mom, I'm hungry!"

Jiang Zhi: "..."

You stinky Wanfu!

"How about I give you fried chicken if you fight me right now?" Jiang Zhi raised an eyebrow, meeting Wan Fu's golden eyes.

"Huh?" Wanfu was stunned, but then he heard that he could eat fried chicken!

Fried chicken! My mom gave me just a tiny piece last time, and it was absolutely delicious!

Wanfu immediately rubbed his hands together, eager to get started.

It raised its right paw, revealing its gleaming nails, and curled its lips into a wicked smile.

Jiang Zhi also got into position and beckoned to Wanfu with her finger.

Wanfu narrowed his eyes and transformed into a small rocket. Jiang Zhi leaned back tactically and did a side flip. Before she could stand up, Wanfu attacked her again.

That's incredible speed! More than twice as fast as a mutated wolfhound!

Jiang Zhi moved with lightning speed, narrowly escaping Wan Fu's clutches.

Ouch! I was accidentally scratched by Wanfu's claws. Wanfu clearly controlled the force and didn't break the skin.

After five or six rounds, Jiang Zhi surrendered.

She lay on her back, gasping for fresh air. At first, she was able to dodge Wanfu's attacks, but Wanfu's speed kept increasing until she could only see afterimages.

Jiang Zhi suddenly thought, why is she even training her physical abilities outside? Why not just spar with Wan Fu in the space?

"Little Wanfu, you did a great job. Mom will reward you with a fried chicken leg."

"Meow~" Wanfu scratched its butt with its paw, then happily ran to Jiang Zhi and rubbed against her.

Jiang Zhi calmed her breathing and slowly stood up. At that moment, she looked as if she had been pulled out of the water, with every strand of her hair dripping wet.

After drinking a few sips of water, she felt like she had come back to life.

After glancing at Wanfu, who was happily munching on a fried chicken leg, Jiang Zhi went into the bathroom. When she came out, she carried Wanfu out of the space.

A person and a cat snuggled together in bed.

Wanfu was still savoring the crispy aroma of the fried chicken, while Jiang Zhi was too tired to move at all.

For five consecutive days, Jiang Zhi stayed at home and didn't go anywhere.

Zhou Heng passed by Jiang Zhi's house every day, but no one came out. He was on a mission and couldn't see the person in charge, so he had no reason to win her over.

The temperature had dropped to minus fifty degrees Celsius. The temperature in the underground city was slightly higher than on the surface, but it was still around minus twenty degrees Celsius.

Lin Yue had been looking for Li Erwei for almost two weeks, and the more she couldn't find him, the more anxious she became. Her rent was running out, and the lease was about to expire, but her few points were nowhere near enough to cover the rent.

She and Li Erwei lived in a cramped room, and Li Erwei paid for her 260 points a month. But now Li Erwei has disappeared, and she, being powerless, will soon be kicked out.

Just a few nights ago, she heard that a man who looked like Li Erwei had entered the building next door and had not come out since.

Lin Yue was terrified.

Li Erwei has most likely met with misfortune.

Based on her observations today, Buildings 15 and 16 in the West District are both seven-story buildings.

However, the building wasn't fully occupied. She observed it for several days and figured out the general situation inside Building 15. Except for the seventh floor, people had been coming and going on the other floors in the past few days.

Her intuition told her that Li Erwei was most likely on the seventh floor.
