As the ship drew closer, Lin Ruo noticed that the people were all dressed in uniform, but the style was not one that Lin Ruo recognized.

Her eyes flickered slightly. Were those forces Chen Yu mentioned finally unable to resist coming after her? It had been a long time since she had fought anyone, and her palms were itching for a fight.

"Miss Lin, hello, we are from the Wang family. We have been waiting for you here for a long time." As soon as the boat docked, a middle-aged man jumped off the boat and walked a few steps to Lin Ruo. His tone was slightly urgent but also showed a hint of respect.

During this time, they waited in this area. The unusually hot weather and the endless wait made them extremely anxious. They wanted to climb the mountain, but the mutated plants on the mountain grew inexplicably, and each one was incredibly powerful.

Many of the plants had already reached level 3, and they even encountered quite a few mutated plants that were about to reach level 4.

These plants, which are like kings in other places, are everywhere here. What's more, the current dry weather has no effect on these mutated plants at all.

Later, they waited outside the mountain and discovered that the mountain would experience heavy rainfall every so often. Considering Lin Ruo's special ability, they immediately understood that the mutated plants on the mountain were intentionally cultivated by Lin Ruo.

There is also a ferocious mutated tiger on this mountain. They had heard before that Lin Ruo not only had two mutated dogs, but also a mutated tiger that was not yet an adult.

When they saw this mutated tiger, they were shocked. It was already at level 3 before it even reached adulthood. They wondered how powerful it would be when it was fully grown.

This tiger is the leader of the mutated animals in this mountain. Under its command, these mutated animals and mutated plants combine with each other, making the entire mountain like an impregnable fortress.

Helpless, they could only wait at the foot of the mountain, hoping to catch Lin Ruo. They refused to believe that Lin Ruo would stay away from the mountain. However, to their despair, they waited for nearly two months before they finally saw Lin Ruo.

I never expected someone with such formidable strength to be such a homebody! She's all alone on this mountain peak, what's so great about staying here?

If they had her strength, they would be thinking about how to subdue the surrounding forces, but she was able to stay in her own little corner of the world for almost two months without going down the mountain.

"What do you want from me?"

Lin Ruo's somewhat indifferent tone interrupted their thoughts, and the middle-aged man immediately stepped forward, "To be honest, Miss Lin, we have something to ask of you."

Lin Ruo's mental energy swept across the ship in front of him, and the entire ship was as if it had been X-rayed, with even the structure of the ship clearly "seen".

Aside from some supplies, there were only a few superpowered individuals on the ship, one of whom was a space-type and the other a water-type. These two were probably brought along to ensure the basic living needs of the passengers.

Seeing that Lin Ruo did not respond, the middle-aged man bowed his head respectfully and said, "Miss Lin, our patriarch would like to discuss a business deal with you. We heard that you have been to H City before. Do you have any impressions of the H City base?"

Lin Ruo blinked, realizing that these people weren't there to cause her trouble, and withdrew her overwhelming spiritual power.

Since he wasn't there to cause trouble, she didn't need to pay him any more attention. She simply shook her head at the middle-aged man and said, "I'm not interested. You don't have anything I want."

After saying that, she flashed away, her movements as fast as lightning. By the time the people came to their senses, her figure had already disappeared into the mountains and forests.

A few minutes later, after confirming that Lin Ruo had gone far away, one of the superhumans on the ship spat in resentment, "Damn it, we've been waiting here for two months, and this woman dismissed us with just one sentence. She's utterly ungrateful."

A female superhuman next to him rolled her eyes at him. "Why didn't you curse her in front of her? You had such a good opportunity just now, should I have shouted for her to come back? You only dared to speak after you were sure she was gone. What a coward!"

"What did you say!" The superhuman immediately stood up, his face flushed red. Of course, he wanted to curse her to her face, but he was also afraid of losing his life because this woman was so powerful!

The female superhuman raised her head and looked directly at the man from before, showing no fear whatsoever.

This guy just can't stand seeing women being strong. He usually treats her coldly, but now that he sees Lin Ruo still daring to gossip behind her back, she's just confronting him, so what!

The middle-aged man interrupted their argument in a deep voice, "Alright, now that we've seen them, we can go back and report. Let's go."

The mutated plants in the mountains, which had been poised to attack, only retracted their gleaming branches and became harmless once they saw the boat leave the vicinity of the mountain peak. If these people hadn't been so far away, they would have been killed by these mutated plants on the mountain peak while they were shouting and cursing. They wouldn't have had a chance to rant and rave.

...

"Ah Lin," Ye Lin was explaining work matters to Jiang Yue when Luo Jiaojiao pushed the door open without knocking and entered. As soon as she entered, she said to Ye Lin in a coquettish tone, "I've been waiting for you for a long time. When will you be finished?"

Ye Lin nodded to Jiang Yue, who stood up and walked out without looking to the side.

Ye Lin then pulled Luo Jiaojiao to sit down, his eyes filled with tenderness, "Didn't I find two female ability users to keep you company? Why are you bored again?"

Luo Jiaojiao snorted, "It's so hot outside, and we can only stay in this underground base all day. We can't go anywhere. What's fun about that? Why don't you take me somewhere else to explore?"

Luo Jiaojiao observed Ye Lin's expression. She had been at the B City base for over a month. Logically, Ye Lin should have fallen deeply in love with her and listen to her in everything. However, in reality, Ye Lin still refused to compromise on many principles. For example, she had never been to the important breeding area or the base's laboratory.

She sensed that even if Ye Lin liked her, he was still holding back. She shouldn't have been too hasty, but that old fox Yang Songming was withholding the antidote from her, so she had no choice.

Ye Lin raised an eyebrow slightly, gently tucking a stray strand of Luo Jiaojiao's hair behind her ear, his tone filled with helplessness and doting, "Where do you want to go?"

Luo Jiaojiao pouted, "I've already explored many places in the base, so... how about we go check out the lab?"

A glint flashed in Ye Lin's eyes, "This..."

Luo Jiaojiao cupped Ye Lin's face in her hands first, making him look at her, a hint of pink flashing in her eyes. "I know you're in a difficult position, but I really want to go... please..."

Ye Lin seemed to be taken aback for a moment, then blinked and said helplessly, "Alright, since our Jiaojiao really wants to see it, then let's go take a look, but we can only visit from the outside and can't go into the experimental area."

"Okay, I know." Luo Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Fortunately, the use of her superpower went smoothly this time.
