After nearly ten hours, the fighter jets from Base B finally escorted Huang Changqi back to Base B.

The imposing fighter jet landed at the airport in City B. Jiang Chao carried Huang Changqi, who was still unconscious, out of the cabin.

The medical staff who had been waiting there immediately took Huang Changqi from Jiang Chao's hands and placed him on the mobile hospital bed. Before leaving, Jiang Chao also instructed the person in charge there, "He has been given the suppressant for an hour. He is a level 5 ability user and needs to be given the suppressant every two hours."

"yes."

Watching these people take Huang Changqi away, and instructing the space ability users in the team to unload the things they brought back from the warehouse, he then looked at the person who had been standing next to the fighter jet.

He strode up to the person who had come, chuckled twice, and said, "Captain, did your mission with Sister Ruo go smoothly this time? Did you exchange a few words with her?"

Zheng Yanfei's gaze, which had been fixed on the terminal, shifted to the face of the person in front of her. Why did this person's expression look so irritating?

She naturally wouldn't tell him that Sister Ruo had recognized her and even praised her, lest he become unrecognizable from jealousy.

"What did you gain from this trip with Sister Ruo?"

When the operation was mentioned, Jiang Chao immediately thought of the corpses scattered all over the ground, and he solemnly reminded Zheng Yanfei.

"Captain, I think there's something I should remind you of. Before, we mostly admired Sister Ruo and wanted to get close to her. But after this operation, I've also seen how dangerous she is. I think we can treat her as an idol and learn from her, but we shouldn't try to get close to her anymore. Doing so will not only cause trouble for Sister Ruo, but it could also cost us our lives."

Zheng Yanfei scoffed. She knew all this. "Nonsense. I only contacted Sister Ruo to give her information. When did you see me sticking my nose up to her? This time, it's inevitable that we'd make contact because she has a partnership with our base."

She knew better than anyone how dangerous such a person was. She could be a shield to protect you, or a spear to pierce you. And the key to this transformation was always in her own hands, completely beyond the control of others.

Hearing Zheng Yanfei say this, Jiang Chao felt a little relieved. Thinking of the other superhumans he had seen before, he clicked his tongue and said, "Sometimes I really think Sister Ruo has a lot of self-control. To be honest, if I had her strength, I would have gotten arrogant long ago."

"She could have anything she wanted, and not only that, people would fight to give it to her, but she wouldn't accept it."

"Under such conditions, it's really not easy for her to stay focused on her own territory and not cause trouble."

Zheng Yanfei was well aware of this. She had heard about it when she returned from the experimental base: Sister Ruo had killed more than 20,000 people by herself last night, all of whom were superhumans. Such strength was truly astonishing.

"Let's go. Captain Chen said to go find him when you get back."

Pulling herself back to reality, Zheng Yanfei reached out and patted Jiang Chao on the shoulder twice before speaking to remind him.

Jiang Chao nodded. He knew why Chen Yu had come to him, and he should indeed report the situation at that time.

...

In the dimly lit room, only a small window overhead let in slivers of sunlight. The air was damp and cold, with a musty smell.

Huang Changqi opened his eyes in this environment. At first, he was a little confused and couldn't tell where he was. It wasn't until a dozen seconds later that his muddled mind cleared up.

Looking around, the walls are made of underground ore, with only a small window for ventilation in the upper left and a camera in the upper right.

He was on a hard bed, so hard that his back was aching. He tried to move his body, but could only control his torso; his body still felt heavy. He tried his superpower, but still couldn't use it.

He turned his head to look, and his hand was right next to him, but he couldn't feel his hand at all, let alone command it to move.

He squinted. His hands and feet were crippled by Lin Ruo's ice. The B City base hadn't even found a healing ability user to heal them. He sneered. Treating prisoners like this, they still wanted him to talk? They were dreaming!

But then the smile on his face froze. He remembered what Lin Ruo had said before: if the B City base couldn't get him to speak, she might return.

Just then, the cell door opened, and the people outside, having already seen through the security camera that he was awake, walked in.

Huang Changqi looked up and, to be honest, he felt no awe towards the people from the B City base. They were only able to get on Lin Ruo's side because of him. Otherwise, if they had faced the Fog Shadow Base head-on, they might not have lost. Although they were few in number, they were of high quality.

Entering were Ye Lin, Chen Yu, Jiang Yue, and several Level 4 ability users. This time, the prisoners were of a high level, and they were afraid of making any mistakes. Nothing was more important than the safety of Ye Lin and the other two.

Huang Changqi was naturally familiar with the B City base and recognized Ye Lin and the others. When he saw that all three of them had arrived, he immediately sneered, his mockery obvious.

"I didn't expect I to be so important that the three giants of the B City base would all come to this cold and damp cell with so many superhumans. What? Are you afraid I'll do something to you?"

These words were highly provocative, and those who came in naturally sensed the sarcasm in his words. But what he said was also true; they were indeed wary of him.
