After the 15th day of the first lunar month, the New Year celebrations are officially over.
The entire city of Beijing was suddenly shaken that day, though it stopped shortly afterward.
However, many people still came out to check the situation.
It turned out that an explosion had occurred at a hospital, with flames shooting into the sky.
No one knows why a huge explosion would cause the entire city of Beijing to tremble.
After seeing her husband in the evening, Nan Xiang didn't know which hospital it was, and looked at him with confusion.
Zhan Si met his wife's gaze and sighed, "This is the People's Hospital, the one you said had problems back then."
"What?" Nan Xiangwan was stunned.
Could something have escaped?
In her past life, she only knew that there was danger here, but she didn't know what it was.
However, she soon realized that something was wrong.
"Honey, have you noticed? There's no smell of gunpowder here at all. It's more like a scene of a superhuman self-destructing." After all, in her previous life, she dragged the entire base into a self-destruction.
Its power is incomparable to that of ordinary bombs.
After hearing what his wife said, Zhan Siyu quickly realized something was amiss. Indeed, as his wife said, there was no hint of tension at all.
It seems that without their knowledge, this place has been discovered, but they don't know if the damned one is dead or not.
After the excitement was over, everyone from each base went back to their respective bases.
After all, nobody goes to put out fires in the apocalypse. As long as their base isn't burned down, no one will waste their time and resources.
When Nan Xiangwan returned to the base, he immediately summoned the base's senior management to the conference room.
Once everyone had arrived, she began, "Although we are no longer in any danger, today's explosion was not so simple. I'd like to ask what your thoughts are? And also, what's the future development direction of the base?"
After Nan Xiangwan finished speaking, everyone began to ponder.
After all, they rarely went out this winter except when they were looking for supplies.
With communication still not restored, it's like being blind; we know absolutely nothing.
Everyone was whispering and discussing it.
Nan Xiangwan brewed himself a cup of coffee and waited while drinking it.
Since we have nothing else to do today, let's sit down and talk about our future plans.
After seeing that Nan Xiangwan had coffee, Tao Yao got up and made herself and her husband a cup as well.
Thinking of drinking coffee to stay awake in the middle of the morning, that's really something else.
Before long, everyone in the conference room had a cup of coffee in their hands.
Seeing how relaxed they were, Nan Xiangwan wondered if she and her husband could think of so much.
He then spoke again, saying, "After the New Year and into the spring, I think those of you who are free can lead teams out again to search for supplies. However, this time the focus will be on reinforced concrete, and our outer walls need to be reinforced, heightened, and thickened. If we're wrong, the heavy red snow a while ago has spawned another batch of powerful zombies, so everyone needs to get moving."
At this moment, Leng Fantian said, "I think what my sister-in-law said makes sense. However, I have made new progress in the laboratory. I have results on those red snowflakes. They contain some substances that are not found on the Blue Planet. I can't explain what they are. If you say it's a virus, it's not. I can only say that its substances can change some potential functions of the human body."
However, when I later experimented with zombies, that substance did indeed make them stronger again.
After listening to his words, Zhan Siyu said, "Then you should change your approach and see if you can get those ordinary people to develop superpowers. Of course, it would be best if they volunteered to participate in the experiment, otherwise we won't be able to explain it to the others in the base."
"Okay, I'll try my best."
"Since none of you have anything to say, then it's settled. After the New Year, each of you will lead a team of 30 people to go out on missions. Make sure you don't go to areas with lots of forests, because those plants are no longer something we can easily deal with. If you get infected, you'll either die or be skinned alive."
"Okay, we understand. We'll make the arrangements in advance."
"Okay, let's adjourn the meeting then."
After everyone left, Zhan Siyu said to Nan Xiangwan, "Some of the new survivors have started to steal things. After Mozi reported this to me, I had him throw them out of the base. I imagine those people are starting to resent our base."
After listening, Nan Xiangwan scoffed, "Tch, those shrimp soldiers and crab generals, if they really dare to cause trouble, I wouldn't mind sending them to the Western Paradise."
"Oh, that's not what I'm worried about. I'm afraid that once those people leave, they'll go around talking about what happened in our base. After all, a toad doesn't bite, but it's disgusting."
"Relax, don't let those people affect our mood. When the weather gets warmer, we'll go out and look for Zhou Muyang. I can't sleep soundly until this ticking time bomb is dealt with soon."
Seeing his wife's worry, Zhan Si smiled and said, "I have already broken through to the 8th level of superpower, so when I meet him, I will avenge my wife and then personally dig out his crystal core."
Upon hearing that her man had secretly advanced in rank behind her back, Nan Xiangwan immediately said with a mournful tone, "Are you even human? I'm still stuck at rank 6. You're already rank 8. Tell me, have you been hogging the rewards behind my back?"
Zhan Siyu said with a laugh, "I already had superpowers when I was reborn, so it's normal that I leveled up faster than you, so there's nothing unbalanced about it."
"Tsk tsk, why does God favor you so much? If it weren't for my family's inheritance, I might have died again much earlier."
"No, I think God gave us a second chance because He has some mission for us. Let's just wait."
Whenever Nan Xiangwan thought about how their rebirth was not an accident, her mind would go back to what had been written in the book.
Will this apocalypse ultimately end because they have to sacrifice themselves?
If that were the case, she would rather be selfish this once than trade her own life for the lives of those awful creatures; it's simply not worth it.
Zhan Si, seeing his wife's overthinking, said with a laugh, "Let's leave everything to fate and enjoy each day as it comes."
"Hmm, never mind, let's go see how the chicks at the base are growing?"
"good."
The couple got up and went to the livestock shed. As soon as they opened the door, a foul smell wafted out.
Nan Xiangwan covered her nose and rested for a while before walking in with Zhan Siyu.
Upon seeing Mr. Zhan and his wife arrive, the farm manager immediately approached them with a smile and said, "What brings you here, sir and madam? The smell here is a bit strong. If you have something to discuss, let's go to the office."
Nan Xiangwan waved her hand dismissively and said, "It's nothing. I just wanted to see how the chicks are doing."
"Madam, apart from the initial 12 deaths, none of these chicks have died. They are all growing very well now, and they should be ready for slaughter in about a month."
