In a magnificent building in the Arles Mountains, far across the ocean.

This building is the M country base. This base integrates all the remaining survivors of the M country, unlike the Z country bases which are scattered and have always implemented a tough system.

The entire M country base is filled with high-rise buildings, each of which is built with underground ore. This underground ore does not all come from M country; much of it also comes from R country and H country. In order to form an alliance with M country, the two countries are willing to exchange such rare resources.

Inside the base, every tall building has a prominent M country flag on it, and the M country's national emblem hangs at the entrance. It is solemn and imposing, and it doesn't look like a refuge base built after the apocalypse at all. It looks like a tourist base built before the apocalypse, and it is full of technology everywhere.

People of all races walk around in the base, but only white people can enter the inner circle. After the apocalypse, racial discrimination here has reached a crazy level.

Here, there are still two classes: the upper class consists of the aristocracy before the apocalypse and ordinary people who have developed superpowers after the apocalypse. These people only account for 20% of all people in the M country, but they control more than 80% of the resources. The lower class consists of ordinary people who live in dire straits every day and struggle desperately for a little bit of supplies.

Below these ordinary people is a group of people similar to slaves: Asians with yellow skin. Apart from those from R country and H country, it is very difficult for other Asians to survive. They could be beaten or killed at any time.

Located at the southernmost part of this complex, a tall, white building stands there; this is the experimental area of ​​the M country's base.

Each building is very far apart because many of the experiments inside are highly dangerous and could explode at any time, so they must be kept at a distance from other experimental buildings.

The central experimental building is the tallest, with about ten floors above ground. On the top floor of this building, however, an extremely cruel scene unfolds.

In the large single-level apartment with an area of ​​over 400 square meters, there is a huge cage in the very center. This cage is made entirely of underground ore and has bars on all four sides. To prevent escape, there is only a 10-centimeter gap between each bar. More than 20 people are locked inside.

Without exception, all of these people were Asians with black hair and yellow skin. These immigrants to the United States were perhaps social elites or successful businessmen before the apocalypse, but now all their former pride is gone. Outside, they could only be slaves to others, and here they can only be prisoners and experimental subjects.

They huddled fearfully in the middle of the iron cage, trying to give themselves a little more sense of security. Their eyes were filled with either fear or emptiness; they had completely given up hope for their situation.

Not far from the cage were various operating instruments and a pure white experimental bed. On the bed lay an unconscious person who had been taken out of the cage a few minutes earlier and injected with a drug, which immediately rendered the person motionless.

At this moment, the researchers outside the cage were constantly circling around the instruments connected to this person, holding notebooks for recording experimental data, writing and drawing on them from time to time. When the experimental data was not satisfactory, they would pull out a test subject to vent their frustration.

Standing next to them was a middle-aged man in a white lab coat, wearing thick glasses, who was watching the researchers carry out all the experimental procedures.

Suddenly the laboratory door opened, and the middle-aged man frowned slightly, his eyes not leaving the room, and simply shouted, "Come in."

The laboratory door opened, and a superhuman strode in. He walked up to the middle-aged man and whispered, "Doctor, the base chief wants to see you."

The middle-aged man's face was full of impatience. The experiment was just reaching a critical moment, and he was being summoned at this time.

Nothing was more important to him than his experiment, but considering how terrifying the base commander was and the conditions he had agreed to, the man finally nodded and walked out.

The M country base covers a vast area, and the central building is far from the experimental area. The middle-aged man, escorted by a superhuman, arrived at the central building by car.

The commander of the M country base is no longer the president of M country before the apocalypse, but a powerful superhuman. This person also served in the M country government before the apocalypse. After awakening his superhuman abilities, he relied on his strong combat power and shrewd political skills to firmly control the entire M country base.

At this moment, the person was sitting in an office in the central building. This office was located on the top floor of the building and had huge bulletproof glass windows. There was also a retractable wall inside the glass windows. The entire building was made of underground minerals, so the security level was extremely high.

There were two men in combat uniforms in front of his desk, exuding a powerful aura. All three people in the room were actually level five ability users.

“Our previous plans have all fallen through,” one of the men sitting outside the desk said in a deep voice. “The B City base is indeed cunning. On the one hand, it cut off the supplies to the bases that cooperate with us, and on the other hand, it prevented our fighter jets from carrying supplies into the country, completely preventing us from providing support.”

"In just a few days, a large number of superhumans and survivors have already left those cooperative bases. The higher-ups in those bases were threatened by the B City base and didn't dare to stop them at all. They are now regretting cooperating with us."

"The rumors that were previously circulating about Lin Ruo and the B City base have been silenced by the actions of the B City base, and our plan can no longer be implemented for the time being."

The man sitting behind the desk spoke up, "Loss, what do you think about this?"

Another man pondered for a moment and said, "Our country's overall strength is now greater than that of the B City base. This is because we cut off all the burdens from the beginning, which gave us an advantage."

"The post-apocalyptic environment is slowly recovering. According to information from our inside source, the research and development efforts at the B City base are now very significant. We just received pictures of their latest fighter jets in the last couple of days. The research institute has studied them and found that they are already more advanced than ours."

"And then there's Novy. He's been captured for so long, who knows how many secrets he's revealed? Has he told us anything about our cultivation potions?"

"At this rate of development, once they crack our method for rapid cultivation, it won't be long before our advantage completely disappears."

"Therefore, if we are to take any action, we must do so as quickly as possible."
