The system said: "Lifesaving ball science: Disposable lifesaving balls are made of the skin of a level 6 sea beast, and can easily withstand the bites of a level 5 alien beast in the water."
Once activated, it will automatically deactivate after 6 hours unless it suffers a more severe level of damage.
Yu Wanling had no idea how she was going to deal with the people at the base for the next six hours; her panic was palpable.
Lan Mingxuan, who had been silently watching her every move, quickly noticed something was amiss.
His usually arrogant eyes showed a rare hint of worry. He stepped forward, pushed Lu Yu aside, and anxiously asked Yu Wanling while crouching outside the survival ball.
"Don't you know how to get out?"
Yu Wanling gritted her teeth and concocted an explanation in her mind.
"I found this outside, and I don't know how to operate it."
She had learned from the system before that the alien beasts mentioned in the system shop were roughly equivalent to the level of zombies in her current world.
In other words, to break through this lifeline, either a level 6 zombie or a level 6 superhuman will appear.
But nowadays, most people are at level 1, occasionally level 2, and rarely level 3. Where can we find level 6 ability users?
She will definitely be trapped for 6 hours, and the base will become aware of the existence of the life pod.
In any case, the system must not be exposed.
Upon hearing that Yu Wanling couldn't get out, everyone else anxiously searched for a solution.
"Oh, can't it be turned off? Isn't there a vent valve inside?"
"What should we do? Won't we get oxygen if we stay inside? We don't see any oxygen generators. Dr. Yu, how are you feeling?"
"If necessary, let's cut it open with a knife. A living person can't just die from holding in their pee."
"What you said may be rough, but it makes sense."
Everyone chimed in with their own opinions, while Lu Yu, who had just been unexpectedly pushed away by Lan Mingxuan, was long forgotten.
Lu Yu stumbled to the side, and if a male doctor hadn't caught her, she would have fallen to the ground with Lan Mingxuan's strength.
She was quite surprised by Lan Mingxuan's reaction and felt rather uncomfortable.
But seeing Yu Wanling locked up inside, I felt that her thinking was too narrow-minded. Everyone was trying to help her find a solution, and Brother Xuan must have been too anxious, not doing it on purpose.
Yes, that must be it.
Lu Yu comforted herself in her heart, and then threw herself into the rescue work with even more enthusiasm.
The lifebuoy, no matter how many tools you use to paddle it, has no effect whatsoever. It's like punching cotton; it's limp and loses all its force.
Afterwards, Lan Mingxuan even brought in his patrol team and tried using various different superpowers, but they still couldn't open the lifebuoy.
The commotion at the medical department is getting bigger and bigger.
Before long, the medical department, located in Building 9, and the upper-level managers who were always keeping an eye on the base's activities all knew about this.
Curious, they all headed towards the medical department, eager to see this strange life-saving ball.
Meanwhile, Li Xin'er had finished her 'sightseeing trip' with Lu Jin'an and the others and returned to her room.
They had also heard rumors and were going to check the situation.
Li Xin'er once again used the excuse of needing to rest to send the two away, then closed the door and comfortably lay down to watch the live broadcast inside.
Yu Wanling never expected that her reunion with Lu Jin'an would take place under such dire circumstances.
For a moment, he almost buried his head in his armpits.
Lu Zheng sent Lu Jin'an and You Su, while Du Zhiyuan personally led a group to assess the situation.
Because internal affairs of the base fall under his jurisdiction as the deputy base commander.
Furthermore, he was very curious about the thing in Yu Wanling's hand that even supernatural powers couldn't destroy.
The group of researchers at the base were equally curious; even a level 3 ability user couldn't destroy it.
Could that be used to make protective clothing?
Du Zhiyuan touched it and personally tested it with the knife. He then had the superhuman use his abilities again, and the result was indeed the same as what his subordinates had reported.
His heart was filled with passion, and his eyes shone as he looked at Yu Wanling.
"Dr. Yu, did you find this? When and where did you find it?"
Because of the arrival of the deputy base commander, those unimportant people were cleared out, leaving only the prominent figures in the base. Everyone had a clear purpose for coming, and Du Zhiyuan's questions were very direct.
Lu Jin'an and You Su also tried it out, exchanged a glance, and had a tacit understanding.
This thing is not simple.
Both of them tried to minimize their presence, listening silently from the side.
Yu Wanling felt uneasy facing Du Zhiyuan. She forced herself to calm down and maintained a pitiful appearance.
"I discovered it by accident during a break when I was looking for a place to relieve myself during my last mission outside the base."
It had a label that said "lifebuoy" on it. I'd never seen one of these before, so I just picked it up, hoping it might come in handy...
Yu Wanling spoke more and more fluently, almost fooling herself.
Upon hearing that Yu Wanling was also found, implying that there might not be any more, Du Zhiyuan frowned, clearly dissatisfied with the answer.
On the other side, Li Xin'er, who was popping grapes into her mouth one by one, couldn't help but smile sarcastically when she heard Yu Wanling's explanation.
The more you fabricate, the more flaws you'll find.
When Yu Wanling spoke, everyone in the room focused their attention on her.
Several quick-thinking individuals also had their doubts.
Off-base missions? Every person entering the base has their belongings, including clothing, disinfected.
Besides disinfection, another purpose is to eliminate all risk factors.
Was the lifebuoy not discovered at the time?
If it didn't attract the prosecutor's attention, then it must have been registered, right?
Lu Jin'an turned her head and gave You Su a look. You Su nodded slightly, then quietly shrank to the back and went out to arrange for someone to investigate.
Yu Wanling, unaware that she was being suspected, continued to confidently answer Du Zhiyuan's questions.
"I don't know how to use it. I usually keep it in my pocket. Today it accidentally fell out and hit the ground, and that's how it is."
“At that time, Lu Yu and Ming Xuan were both in front of me, and they saw it too.”
Du Zhiyuan looked up at Lan Mingxuan, who nodded.
"Yes, I can attest that it was just an accident."
Yu Wanling insisted that she had picked it up, and Du Zhiyuan couldn't get any answers from her, so he asked the researchers to try to examine the materials of the lifebuoy.
After making the arrangements, he noticed that Lu Jin'an was also there. He smiled and said:
"Jin An, what brings you here? Aren't you entertaining your guests?"
You Su had just finished making arrangements and was planning to sneak in quietly when she heard Du Zhiyuan asking Lu Jin'an a question.
He immediately smiled, nodded politely to Du Zhiyuan, and greeted him, explaining...
"Hello, Deputy Base Commander. We just finished our work and came over out of curiosity after hearing about this."
