They somehow repaired the crystal core of the red saltpeter. Although the recovery time was long, he no longer had to become a cripple.
The price is that after the red saltpeter is restored, we have to do things for them.
They seem to have a very horrifying plan, but Red Nitrate is not yet in access.
The zombie horde marched north and was about to reach the base where Red Nitrate had originally been located.
His feelings were somewhat complicated.
Logically, he has no connection with the base anymore; if anything, there is only enmity between them.
But it was a base he had built up from scratch, and he didn't want to just stand by and watch... the zombie horde swallow it up like locusts.
Coincidentally, a group of mutated centipedes passed underground, causing the ground to collapse, making it impossible for the zombie horde to pass.
Seeing this, the man controlling the zombies decided to take a detour.
"There's another small base ahead, what a pity."
Hongxiao pretended not to care, but secretly listened intently.
The man with beige hair sitting in the back seat, intrigued by the question, leaned closer and asked, "Really?"
The man glanced at him sideways: "If you want to talk nonsense, go outside the car."
The man with the off-white hair said, "Okay, I'm going! I'll also check out that base while I'm at it!"
The man initially intended to reprimand them, but after a moment's thought, he nodded and said, "Alright, you go and keep an eye on things, make sure no one from that base is left alive."
"Wow! That's ruthless, just what I wanted, boss!"
The man, annoyed by the noise, kicked the gray-haired man off the bus.
The person, however, used some kind of supernatural ability to dodge and instantly reappeared several meters away.
He waved in this direction and called out, "I'm coming!"
Then it flashed to the outside of the deep pit dug by the centipede and ran north in a flash.
The mutated centipede was also heading north. Perhaps the base would be spared from the ravages of the zombie horde, but it would still be destroyed by the centipede.
Even if someone survives, that superhuman will find them and kill them.
Ye Nianzhen... will also die.
He covered his face with red nitrates and leaned back on the car's spacious seat.
With his arm covering his face, no one could see his expression.
It's good that he's dead, so he won't have to harm anyone else's arm.

The centipede swarm dug steadily and firmly toward the north.
This is not because they detected a cluster of food ahead, but rather because it is their established migration route.
Centipedes are level three monsters, and theoretically, they should automatically avoid "foundations".
Mu Guang was clearly aware of this, and he kept using short-distance teleportation to arrive at the perimeter of the small base ahead of time.
He planned to destroy all the "foundations" of the base, allowing the centipede swarm to run rampant there.
This way, you can save a lot of effort and still have a good show to watch.
However, the sky was overcast and the light was dim today, which affected the performance of his superpowers.
That's the downside of the apocalypse; it's always cloudy. Otherwise, with his superpowers, he would have dominated the area long ago!
Although being a local tyrant isn't very interesting, managing the people under you is too much trouble.
This is where their leader's foresight shines through: his men are all zombies! This eliminates the hassle of management.
Mu Guang found a high vantage point and observed the base below from a distance.
The people below were busy, as if they were reinforcing the defensive fortifications.
He propped his hands under his head, found a comfortable position to lie down, and slowly recharged.
These people are lucky; he used up too much energy when he arrived, so he needs to slow down before he can make a move.
Suddenly, a figure in the crowd caught his attention.
She was a woman, not very tall, and slender.
She commanded those around her with ease and authority.
Mu Guang rolled over, lying face down with his chin in his hands, and yawned absentmindedly.
"Is this base also led by a woman? That's quite rare."
Suddenly, the woman raised her head, her gaze piercing through the air and locking onto Mu Guang's face.
"!"
He quickly rolled to the side, getting covered in mud and rotten leaves, his heart pounding.
How is that possible! At this distance, unless one has extremely high eyesight, it would be impossible for them to spot him.
He secretly raised his eyes to look in that direction again, but the woman had already looked away, as if it were just a coincidence.
"Pooh!"
Mu Guang spat the mud off his lips angrily, vowing to teach that woman a lesson!
Ye Nianzhen, inside the base, crossed his arms and silently prayed.
"Hmph, they've come after all."
Here we must mention the reward item issued by the system this time—a sphere whose interior is composed of countless mirrors.
The item description reads: The sphere can be opened and closed, and can be transformed into a prison when necessary.
Prison?
What can be imprisoned in a ball the size of a palm, a prison made of mirrors?
As if struck by a sudden inspiration, Ye Nianzhen thought of someone.
Naturally, he is also one of the many crazy girls among the female protagonists, a rare and powerful light-type ability user.
This person is psychologically twisted and has an eccentric personality. His favorite thing to do is to make people spontaneously combust.
That's right, he would choose a sunny midday, gather the sunlight from a high place, and direct it onto a certain "lucky guest".
Like an ignorant child burning ants with a magnifying glass, the chosen person will be burning hot all over, as if in purgatory.
It eventually died from spontaneous combustion.
The female protagonist and her group often use this method to suppress residents in other bases who do not submit to their rule.
Because no one knew the underlying principle, they all assumed it was punishment for offending the "saintess".
Sometimes even devout "believers" might be chosen, and they would be even more apprehensive, not daring to discuss it in private.
This was entirely because the light-elemental ability user was bored and just burning things for fun.
hehe.
Ye Nianzhen crossed her arms and sneered. The system really had a good plan.
Issuing such a prop is tantamount to telling her to arrest the person.
As for what to do with them after they're arrested... what else could they be done to!
The rewards issued by the system are based on the current situation and are those that can best promote the progress of infrastructure construction.
The progress of infrastructure construction is linked to the progress of strategy development!
Is this place being used as a dumping ground? They're stuffing all sorts of junk in there!
Perhaps sensing Ye Nianzhen's low mood, the silly and cute system remained quiet, not daring to utter a sound.
Ye Nianzhen urged the people at the base to move quickly to prepare for the upcoming battle, while keeping an eye on Mu Guang's movements.
Why can't we arrest them?
Rather than letting him out there harm others, it's better to catch him and give him a good "education" to turn over a new leaf.

Ye Nianzhen held her breath, her face darkening, and everyone around her was trembling with fear.
They hadn't taken Ye Nianzhen's words seriously before.
I witnessed firsthand that the original members of the red team were all obedient, and the red team had disappeared without a trace.
The people around Ye Nianzhen all had a powerful aura and looked like they were not to be trifled with, so some of the more pragmatic people changed their attitudes in time.
The other group, seeing Qin Qiu effortlessly lift a mountain of mutated lizard shells with one hand and walk with ease, dared not cause any trouble.
Thus, Ye Nianzhen naturally became the leader of the base.
