Li Ke rested at the roadblock until midnight. After crossing to the other side by boat, he used a bomb to blast the roadblock open a bit more, widening the water in the middle of the roadblock. The temperature has risen a bit in the last two days, and this surface water will gradually dry up within two months, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Li Ke's wall had no gate. She returned to the wall through one of the tunnel entrances that had already been built. That night, she began to release all kinds of reinforcement and heightening materials she had collected, and started to further build up the wall. At dawn, she poured all the cement that she had mixed in her space into it.

Currently, the more than 1,000-meter-long wall around her new home is only a little over 3.5 meters high. Li Ke still has a lot of materials in her space, and in her plan, this wall will be at least 5 meters high.

Moreover, Li Ke had reserved positions for gun emplacements on the walls in the two vulnerable directions, as well as lookout towers for easy shooting and observation.

The temperature rise is becoming more and more obvious, and the sun has finally broken through the haze, becoming more and more intense. Li Ke's recent electricity consumption all comes from solar energy storage.

She focused on reinforcing her high wall, and after reaching the required height, she began installing surveillance equipment. Occasionally, she would use a high-powered telescope to check the situation below. As long as no one disturbed her, no matter how fierce the fighting was in the town below, it was none of her concern.

The bearded man's name is Niu Dazhuang. He always thought the name was too rustic and only allowed others to call him Brother Zhuang or Little Zhuang. Right now, he is interrogating Lin Nuo, a traitor in their group, with his elder brother Qiu Feng and other brothers.

Qiu Feng sat in the center of the room, looking at his once closest younger brother, and asked, "Why? It's fine if you want to part ways, but why hurt your own brother?"

Lin Nuo, the former leader of the First Battalion and the most powerful bandit leader in the area, is now kneeling in the middle of the room, covered in wounds. He is surrounded by his former brothers, the strongest prisoners he had personally captured.

Lin Nuo raised his head and smiled: "Who wants to part ways with you? What I want is for everyone to stay together. I want to be the strongest boss for everyone. If you are unwilling to cooperate, I will have to resort to some means."

The man pressing him down spat, "You shameless scoundrel, you traitor who betrayed your brothers! You think you can be the boss? In your next life!"

Lin Nuo smiled slyly: "Sorry, I've already done it. You guys were very obedient to me just a couple of days ago."

"I don't believe your nonsense!" The other person punched him in anger, then continued, "If you're so capable, why don't you try it yourself!"

Lin Nuo spat out a mouthful of blood: "Your temper has gone out of control again. You were so well-behaved just two days ago."

"Hey! Do you have to be so foul-mouthed? I'll make you mute for once!" The burly man holding Lin Nuo raised his fist in anger, ready to cripple Lin Nuo's teeth.

"Stop!" Qiu Feng called out, and the big man glanced at his boss with a hint of emotion, but after being glared at by Qiu Feng, he obediently lowered his fist and stepped aside.

Lin Nuo revealed a hint of smugness: "Big brother, I knew you wouldn't be able to be ruthless towards me, after all, I'm your own younger brother whom you raised."

Lin Nuo's words caused the expressions of the others around him to turn somewhat unpleasant, but they always respected Qiu Feng, so they simply sat silently without saying anything.

Qiu Feng remained unmoved by Lin Nuo's smugness. He asked expressionlessly, "Where are Qiu Chen and Lin Shuang now?"

Lin Nuo replied cooperatively, "They want to become stronger and don't want to be a burden to our team, so they volunteered to participate in the miracle drug experiment. As long as they survive the next three months, you will definitely see how amazing their changes are."

Qiu Feng stared at Lin Nuo: "They are still two fifteen-year-old children. You bewitched them, Lin Nuo. You are not worthy to be their brother."

Lin Nuo sneered: "Big brother, your method is wrong. They are already fifteen years old. This world will become more and more chaotic. They just made the same choice as me. I am protecting them, and they want to protect us. I am not wrong."

Qiu Feng waved his hand, ordering someone to take the stubborn Lin Nuo away. Lin Nuo, however, refused to leave. He addressed the people around him, saying, "Can't you see the changes in my body? Before, you all thought I was a good-for-nothing who relied on my elder brother. Now, it takes the three of you to subdue me when I'm injured. My choice was right, and you all know that very well."

Anyone can get the miracle drug if they're willing. The boss loves people like us the most because we're the ones who can maximize its effects!

Qiu Feng glared at the person behind Lin Nuo, displeased with his slow movements: "Gag him, take him out and give him fifty more lashes!"

Lin Nuo was dragged out, and everyone in the room looked at Qiu Feng, who seemed lost in thought and didn't say another word.

After a moment of silence, someone finally couldn't help but speak up: "Boss, are you really going to keep Lin Nuo alive? According to our rules, a traitor like him deserves to die."

Qiu Feng waved his hand and explained, "It's not the right time yet. We still have nearly a hundred brothers in the hands of that boss. We don't know how many of these brothers are here voluntarily and how many are forced. His life is spared for now, so there's no rush."

Since the boss had spoken, the others nodded in agreement. Qiu Feng always acted with strict rules, and even his younger siblings had to follow them. They believed that the boss would handle the matter fairly this time.

Qiu Feng's physical condition is actually not very good right now. Lin Nuo arrested them and, in order to establish his authority, he could even treat his own older brother cruelly. As long as Qiu Feng does not agree to join him, he will be whipped every day. In addition to working every day, he is also locked in a damp and dark dungeon to be tortured. In addition, he is often hungry, so Qiu Feng's body has indeed been greatly damaged.
