Cheng Song enjoys cooking for himself, even if it doesn't taste as good as what robots make, but it makes him feel at ease and gives him a sense of home.
He tries to avoid using any artificial intelligence, and the people around him think he's an old-fashioned person, a fool, and doesn't know how to enjoy life.
He continued to do things his own way, believing only in himself.
Therefore, after the apocalypse, without artificial intelligence, the scientists of the past were as lost as if they had lost their eyes, but he was completely unaffected.
After listening, Qi An gave him a meaningful look and finally understood why this guy was able to succeed.
Because this guy is not only a genius, but also a wise and unassuming prophet.
You really can't judge a book by its cover!
Qi An said to Ata, "Ata, you used to think that people looked like idiots when they laughed, but now do you realize who the idiot is?"
Ata: "..."
Pretending not to understand, I shamefully took a big bite of the candied hawthorn.
Qi An chewed on dried meat, pondering his next plan.
Xu Yaling and her team believed that if they could safely escort Cheng Song to the Red Star Base, humanity would be saved.
But she didn't think so, because many of the management at the Red Star Base were mutants.
Human nature is too complex. The phrase "uniting as one" is easy to say but incredibly difficult to achieve.
Just like when a plague is raging, drug dealers and those who profit from it do not want the plague to end.
The same applies to the end times.
But this was Xu Yaling's wish, so she would just do it. Anyway, with her there, the bookworm would definitely be able to live a good life.
After traveling and stopping along the way, fighting monsters and eating hot pot, Qi An and his group finally arrived at the Red Star Base after ten days.
The base's leader had expected to see a group of people who were pale, thin, and ragged, given the dangers they had faced along the way.
But why do these people have rosy complexions and look so healthy and in great shape?
Especially Dr. Cheng, whose baby face was noticeably rounder than in the photos, and he was wearing a black bearskin coat.
It's clear they're living a very comfortable life.
Qi An disliked dealing with people who spoke nine and a half sentences in a bureaucratic manner, so after handing Cheng Song over to them, she took her leave.
"Ms. Xu, would you consider staying at our base? If you work for us, we can offer you excellent benefits."
"Not considering it."
She was used to being the boss and would never submit to anyone else. Who was qualified to order around the ancient ferocious beast Yazi?
If she had lowered her noble head, she wouldn't have been suppressed by the Heavenly Dao in the endless abyss for so many years.
The person in charge hesitated for a moment, exchanged glances with the other members of the management team, and then began to persuade the other members of the team in turn.
Everyone's answer was, "Thank you, but I won't consider it."
In the end, the person in charge had no choice but to let them go.
As Qi An stepped out of the base, a cold smile played on his lips, ignoring the "tails" following them at a distance.
Ata asked her, "Boss, what did you slip to that nerd before you left?"
Qi An said, "It's a little gadget that could save his life in a dangerous situation and also allow him to contact me. However, I hope he never has to use it."
If it is used, it will prove that her worries were true.
Ata seemed to understand, but not quite.
The teammate asked her, "Boss, where do we go next?"
After witnessing Qi An's abilities along the way, they all tacitly started calling her "boss".
Qi An said, "Let's go and swallow Aotian Base."
Team members: "..."
Three days later, the group arrived at the city where Aotian Base was located.
After being informed by his teammates, Qi An learned that the leader of the Aotian Base was originally named Li Yong, a perverted serial killer who raped, murdered, and dismembered more than a dozen women.
He was sentenced to death, but on the eve of his execution, the end times suddenly arrived.
Taking advantage of a strike by the prison security system, he led a group of fellow inmates to kill the prison guards and escape.
During their escape, they joined forces to drain the blood of a female mutant, gaining immense power.
He considered this a new beginning and gave himself a new name: Li Aotian.
The apocalypse is a disaster for ordinary people, but a paradise for criminals and ambitious individuals.
They thrived in the apocalypse, quickly gaining notoriety and successfully establishing the Aotian Base.
Here, Li Aotian is a local tyrant, a cruel and bloodthirsty one at that, whose will determines the life and death of ordinary people.
Li Aotian thoroughly enjoyed the thrill of being above everyone else; he hoped the apocalypse would never end.
Upon learning that someone had developed a drug to combat mutations, Li Aotian felt an urge to devour that person alive.
They thought they could easily deal with that doctor, but they sent out more than a dozen groups of people, and not only did they not manage to defeat him, not a single one of them came back alive.
Knowing that the people had safely arrived at the base, Li Aotian flew into a rage and killed several slaves in a row to vent his anger.
"Damn it, they're all a bunch of useless trash. So many people died and they couldn't even kill a single bookworm. I'm so angry!"
Several high-ranking inmates tried to dissuade him, saying, "Forget it, brother. Even if we had the drug, what could we do? Who could force-feed it to us? Do they really think our Aotian Base is a pushover?"
"Yes, brother, don't worry. Of the three bases, we are the strongest. Nothing will change unless you agree."
"That's right, even if we go head-to-head with the Red Star Base, we won't lose. Who's afraid of who?"
"Besides, not everyone at the Red Star Base is a good person. In my opinion, it's still uncertain whether this medicine will even be available."
With his subordinates' persuasion, Li Aotian gradually calmed down.
Having satisfied his urge to kill, another addiction began to take hold.
With a single glance from him, his superiors, who knew him well, gave the order, and soon two beautiful women were brought over.
One has long, innocent hair, the other has short, dashing hair.
Li Aotian treated the entire base as his own property; men were his slaves, and women were his playthings.
He can kill whomever he wants, sleep with whomever he wants, and no one can disobey him.
As for the girls who were chosen, they were all carried out in sacks the next morning, and it is said that none of them were intact.
Unlike the girls who were brought in the past and who were trembling with fear, the two girls this time were calm.
The one with short hair, in particular, thoughtfully reached out and closed the door.
Li Aotian and his superiors eagerly pounced on the two girls, ready to spend a wonderful night as usual.
Moments later, screams and curses erupted from inside the room, interspersed with the sounds of knives and axes chopping into bones.
"Oh no, something's happened! Go inside and check it out!"
A group of loyal henchmen guarded the outside. They grabbed their weapons and tried to go in to protect the guard, but they were beheaded by a group of people who appeared out of nowhere.
From the outside, the glaring blood splattered continuously onto the transparent glass, flowing down the smooth surface, creating a shocking scene.
The eerie sounds only stopped when the entire wall of glass was stained red with blood.
Not all the mutants at the Aotian Base wanted Li Aotian to live.
Apart from a few high-ranking officials and a small number of loyal lackeys, everyone wanted to replace him.
As for ordinary people who are forced into slavery, they would rather be chopped into thousands of pieces and sent to the eighteenth level of hell after death.
