Chapter 25 Welcome the New Teammates

The next day.

The children got up early, changed into the new clothes that Sister Yunzhao had bought for them, and were led by their parents to gather on the first floor of the community. Their faces were filled with excitement and anticipation.

After getting ready, Yun Zhao put on a light blue casual outfit and took He Pingping and He An'an out the door.

The school is located on West Second Street in the outer urban area of ​​the base.

It's a bit far from Dongsan Street; it takes about 40 minutes to walk there.

But Yun Zhao doesn't plan to let the children take the bus to school.

Physical strength is very important in the apocalypse, as unexpected events can happen at any time, and walking is a way to exercise physical strength.

She had already learned that the base was very safe, with patrol teams everywhere.

The children go to and from school together, so there's nothing to worry about.

Yun Zhao and Aunt Zhao led the children all the way to the school gate.

Because I was in a hurry to report to the operations department.

After paying the fees at the finance office, she gave a few instructions to several families and then left first.

*

Yun Zhao took a bus to the inner city and then walked a short distance to the operations headquarters building.

This is her third time here.

It seems to be somewhat different from the previous two times.

As she approached, she saw the access control area on the first floor.

Four sentries, three men and one woman, dressed in black combat uniforms, stood in a row, clapping their hands childishly and shouting loudly and in unison, "Welcome, welcome! A warm welcome!"

Yun Zhao: "..."

Not only her, but even the guards on duty next to her had expressions that were hard to describe.

The little bluebird seemed extremely interested.

I tilted my head and looked them over; surprisingly, I didn't swear.

"Welcome, welcome, a warm welcome..." The voice grew weaker and weaker.

The guide stood still, his gaze calm and his face expressionless.

The atmosphere was too awkward.

It's really impossible to continue.

Song Liang was forced to join the three. He was the first to lower his hands and awkwardly greeted them, "Hello, Guide Yun, I'm Song Liang from Team Zero. These three are Rabbit, Duan Xi, and Tao Haohao..."

Song Liang introduced them one by one.

Yun Zhao knew that they would be his teammates in the future.

But she just couldn't bring herself to clap along.

Seeing that everyone had returned to normal, she softly replied, "Hello everyone, I am Yun Zhao."

The rabbit stared curiously at the little bluebird. So this is what the bluebird looks like; it actually has two forms.

Why didn't the captain have his Fire Phoenix?

"Cloud Guide, may I touch it?" the rabbit asked, coming closer.

When the little bluebird saw that they had stopped clapping, it immediately reverted to its usual arrogant demeanor, with an expression that said, "Try touching me if you dare."

Yun Zhao politely declined, saying, "It doesn't like being touched."

The rabbit wasn't annoyed. "So what's its name?"

Yun Zhao: "Little Bluebird."

Rabbit: "..." So casual?

Yun Zhao thought for a moment and then added, "There's another name."

"What's your name?" Tao Haohao also came over.

Yun Zhao: "The Great Bluebird."

Tao Haohao: "..."

Yun Zhao specifically emphasized: "For easy differentiation."

Song Liang looked up at the sky speechlessly.

Great, they left the new team member speechless once, and she immediately retaliated twice.

Intentional?

"Minister Duan and the team leader are having a meeting upstairs. Guide Yun, let us take you in first," Song Liang said.

Fortunately, there was one normal person among my teammates.

Song Liang led the way, and the group entered the elevator together.

Over a few casual words, the people became closer.

Rabbit was already extending a warm invitation: "To welcome the new team, the captain has prepared a barbecue party tonight. Let's go together after the meeting."

The rabbit was extremely happy that other girls were in the group.

The guide is frail, but that's alright. With the captain here, he will definitely protect her.

Before Yun Zhao could answer, the rabbit changed the subject, "Guide Yun, how old are you?"

Now that a new teammate has joined, if she's younger than him, she won't be the youngest in the team anymore.

Yun Zhao chose to tell the truth: "I'm about nineteen years old."

When her uncles took her in, she had no memory of her past and didn't remember her age.

The uncles decided to make the day they found her their birthday.

As for age, it can only be estimated based on appearance.

"Approximately?" Everyone was stunned.

Just then, the elevator doors opened.

Outside the elevator door.

Minister Bai of the Special Abilities Department had just come out of another elevator when he heard the sound and turned around, just in time to see Yun Zhao inside.

Minister Bai waved: "You've come at the perfect time. Come with me."

It seems that Jiang Mu's team has run into trouble.

The four bases held an emergency online meeting. Minister Duan was unable to attend, so he called Minister Bai in.

All guides in the base are under the jurisdiction of the Special Abilities Department.

Previously, the Operations Department had no guides, and only Minister Bai took action to test the capabilities of S-class guides.

However, this is an S-level guide.

There are strict classifications for guide levels.

Unlike sentinels, guides previously only had three ranks.

The highest grade is A, and the lowest grade is C.

The testing level is generally divided into two steps.

First, a mental strength test is conducted, and then a senior guide enters the mental realm to determine the level.

The so-called spiritual realm is a world constructed in the minds of sentinels and guides, and it is also the space in which spiritual beings live.

Everyone's inner world is different.

The more powerful the guide and sentinel, the broader their spiritual realm.

When Yun Zhao arrived at the base, he only underwent a mental strength test, missing a step.

Because only S-class spiritual entities are in the legendary form.

She is clearly an S-class guide.

In addition, her spiritual body is too powerful, far surpassing that of an A-level guide.

Given Qingluan's extremely aggressive behavior, it's likely that no one can enter her mental realm.

Minister Bai did not want to try it rashly.

I plan to use other methods to understand her abilities more clearly.

Yun Zhao didn't ask any questions and nodded, "Then I'll trouble Minister Bai."

She turned around, greeted her four newly acquainted teammates, and followed Minister Bai into another elevator to leave.

The four looked at each other, watching helplessly as their new teammate was snatched away by Minister Bai.

The elevator space is enclosed.

Besides Minister Bai and Yun Zhao, there was also a subordinate with special abilities accompanying them.

Minister Bai casually asked, "How much do you know about the guide's abilities?"

Yun Zhao shook his head: "I don't know much about it."

She had never met any other guides and didn't know how she was different from them.

Minister Bai knew that she had grown up in a small town and had never had contact with outsiders, so he was not surprised by her statement.

"Then I'll explain it to you slowly."

Minister Bai: "The guide's ability is mainly reflected in his strong mental strength."

"One of the most basic abilities is emotional resonance, which is the ability to perceive the emotions of others and influence and soothe their emotional state through mental power, especially the emotions of sentinels."

Yun Zhao realized that her spiritual threads could capture emotions.

It turns out that this ability is called emotional resonance.

"Secondly, there is mental guidance. The guide can enter the sentinel's mental realm, peer into the inner world of others, and use their abilities to clear out the dark matter that is eroding the realm."

Yun Zhao paused.

Cleaning? Isn't it purification?

"As for the dark matter that has been cleared out, it is very difficult to process and is usually collected in special containers."

"Apart from the research institute where some research is conducted, the rest will be transported outside in batches to prevent excessive dark matter from forming a contaminated area within the base."

Minister Bai smiled wryly, "There's nothing we can do about it; we can't deal with these mysterious substances right now."

Yun Zhao pursed her lips and did not respond.

Her spiritual threads can devour dark matter.

The town was full of low-level sentries, and the little bluebird was very perfunctory in its guidance. Each time it would just flap its wings casually, it could blow away the dark matter.

She thought it was a routine procedure.
