Chapter 207: "Tax Payment"



It was not known whether Adjutant Meng, who went down first, said something to the others on military card No. 2, but the people at base No. 5 changed their reserved tactics when they were helping Wang Xiaobo and the others, and demonstrated their superior military power.

If these people get serious, even a first-level psychic against a first-level mutant animal can be defeated in just a few moves.

Wen Yubai "saw" that Wang Xiaobo and the others deliberately slowed down the car, and not only did he not want to come up to help them, he also took out a telescope to observe them as if he was watching a show.

As a result, when they saw that a dozen people at Base No. 5 were facing a group of more than a hundred mutant animals without being impatient or anxious, and each of them had the fighting power to kill the mutant animals in seconds, their faces were distorted.

When Major Pei got off the car, he showed his prowess and demonstrated his powerful strength of his third-level wind-type ability in front of everyone for the first time. In five minutes, he killed nearly a hundred mutant beasts by himself.

Wang Xiaobo and the others in the car following behind were all stunned, looking at Major Pei's back as if he were a monster.

When Major Pei showed this move, even everyone in Base No. 5 was stunned.

"Host, Wang Xiaobo's cronies were frightened by Major Pei's powerful fighting ability. They are all advising him not to compete with Major Pei for women and not to provoke Major Pei. Wang Xiaobo's face is extremely black." The system spoke quietly again.

How come she didn't know in her previous life that although this crappy system was not a human, it actually had a special hobby of eating melons.

However, Major Pei's move was really brilliant in defeating the enemy without fighting, and those people were so scared that they didn't even dare to get out of the car.

Major Pei not only killed the mutant beast, but also collected some of the first-level mutant beast corpses in front of those people. His space magic weapon had a clear path among the upper echelons of the country, and with his background and his own abilities, he was not afraid of others knowing.

It may be that Major Pei had demonstrated his powerful martial arts skills before, and he showed off the space magic weapon. Although Wang Xiaobo and his confidants were covetous, they quickly digested the thought. They probably considered the terrifying power of Major Pei's wind blade.

The remaining eighty or so mutant beast corpses were also collected by the people at Base No. 5. They did not look for Wen Yubai, but another gold-type mutant in the team conjured up two trailers and hooked them behind the two military trucks.

Food has always been in short supply since the end of the world, but botanists in Flower Country have confirmed that more than a dozen mutant plants are edible. Most mutant animals are also edible, and the meat of level 0 and level 1 mutant beasts is particularly popular.

But now most parts of the world are covered in ice and snow, and edible mutant plants are nowhere to be found.

The lower level mutant animals act in groups, with hundreds of them moving together. They are not something that ordinary psychics can provoke, and the ungrouped mutant animals are even more unprovoked.

Therefore, the vast majority of survivors are still relying on the supplies they had before the end of the world to survive.

Therefore, if they bring the corpses of these mutant animals into Base No. 7, they will definitely be able to exchange them for a lot of useful supplies. Leaving them here will only benefit Wang Xiaobo and others.

Before Wang Xiaobo discovered Wen Yubai, he introduced himself and said that they were out hunting.

The 50-plus kilometers of road near Base No. 7 had obviously been repaired by earth-type psychics, so it was not a problem at all for the military truck. Therefore, although their journey was delayed twice, they still arrived at Base No. 7 within the estimated time.

From afar they could see the brown walls of Base No. 7 in the snow-white wilderness.

"Base No. 7 is located in the largest city on the Rick Plateau and the only official survivor base on the entire Rick Plateau. The number of survivors in this base is even greater than that of our Base No. 5," said Major Pei.

"The Rick Plateau is so vast, and the only official survivor base has only slightly more people than our Base No. 5. That's already very few, okay?" Wen Yubai complained.

"There are too many mutated animals in Base No. 7. When the apocalypse just started, it was difficult for us to deal with the mutated animals." Adjutant Meng said.

Wen Yubai thought back to the fourth day of the apocalypse. Even though Major Pei could kill more than a dozen mutant animals in one second, on the fourth day of the apocalypse, they encountered mutant dogs at a gas station. It took Major Pei a while to kill even a level zero mutant dog. Later, when they encountered groups of mutant animals several times, many survivors would die.

The vehicle quickly approached Base No. 7 and saw that there were several defense lines outside the base gate, which could prevent mutant animals from rushing directly into the gate, giving the guards at the gate enough time to close the gate.

"The earth wall outside Base No. 7 should have been built by an earth-type mutant." Adjutant Meng said, looking at the wall.

The walls of their Base No. 5 were built along the mountainside and were not as majestic as the walls of Base No. 7.

After hearing what Adjutant Meng said, Wen Yubai also observed the wall of Base No. 7.

If the high walls and the deep moats around them were not ancient relics, they must have been the work of an earth-type psychic.

Because in the more than one hundred years of peace in the Flower Kingdom, all new cities will not have city walls, unless they are cities left over from the ancient war era hundreds of years ago. Otherwise, only cities built after the end of the world will have such configuration.

The climate on the plateau is harsh and the population is relatively small. Even though the location of Base No. 7 was originally the largest city on the Rik Plateau, its area is only about the same size as the economically developed towns in the plains.

Maybe because the current commander of Base No. 7 is a political man, the guards at the entrance are not from the base army just by looking at their attire.

On the tenth day after the apocalypse, the top leaders of the Flower Country issued a new regulation for the people of the apocalypse, stipulating that in every official base, every person must hand over one tenth of their income to the base when entering the base.

The notice posted on the doorpost of Base No. 7 indicates that the rules implemented by Base No. 7 are those stipulated by the state.

Of course, regulations are regulations, and there are loopholes that can be exploited if desired.

So no matter which base it is, guarding the supplies department is a lucrative job, and every base commander will keep it under his own control.

When the staff at the logistics department of Base No. 7's gate guard saw that the people from Base No. 5 were outsiders and had brought so many mutant animal corpses with them, their eyes lit up. Even Wen Yubai in the car could see the calculating look in their eyes clearly.

Major Pei and Wen Yubai's brother and sister did not get out of the car. Adjutant Meng and eight people got out of the car to pay the "tax". Wen Yubai noticed that Geng Yi Guang and another level 2 psychic did not get out of the car.

The guards at the No. 7 base looked at the prey they brought with them with greedy eyes. Wen Yubai didn't need to pay attention to the details to know that the process of paying the "tax" by Adjutant Meng and his men would definitely not be smooth.

Base No. 7 is now under the control of the political party, which is a two different system of military and politics. Although everyone seems to be friendly on the surface, they will definitely take care of their own people in private.

Especially now that it is the end of the world, the head of a base has great power. If the government wants to maintain the position of base head, it will definitely suppress the military and prevent them from emerging and competing for power with the government.

Thank you Mimi's Ruby and Zhu Furong for the tips.
