"Alright, stop thinking about it. Think about it, we've both been reborn, and we're still together. Maybe this is God's compensation."
"Then I should thank God for giving me such a wonderful husband."
"Hey, you should eat breakfast. Nothing else is more important than filling your stomach."
"Yes, honey, give me a hug."
Zhan Si felt much better after seeing his wife and breathed a sigh of relief, but he was afraid of getting stuck in a rut.
The two were enjoying their breakfast together in a cozy atmosphere; it would have been even more perfect if Nan Haochen hadn't been there as a third wheel.
"Sis, remember to call me next time you have special meals. I always come here by myself just because I smell them."
Nan Xiangwan didn't say anything when she saw that her younger brother liked it. After all, he was her own brother, and he had died because of her in her previous life. She could only spoil him; otherwise, she would have kicked him out of the house long ago.
Only Zhan Siyu looked at his wife with a mournful gaze, thinking to himself that if there were a good girl, he should really find one for his brother-in-law, so that he wouldn't have to come and light their way every day.
Not only his brother-in-law, but also his other brothers, especially Shangguan Yu. No one told anyone about what happened to the woman on the way, just in case he overthinks it. If that woman doesn't die, she'll be a menace sooner or later.
Situ Mo arrived just as we finished breakfast here.
"Boss, a man named Shen Xingzhou is looking for you. He says he's delivering an invitation."
Upon hearing the name, Zhan Siyu remembered that it was the soldier from yesterday, and then said, "Take your men to the living room, I'll change my clothes and then come downstairs."
"OK."
As soon as Situ Mo left, Zhan Siyu said to his wife, "I met a squad leader in the army yesterday when I was gathering information. He was the one who told me that there was a banquet at the National Security Base. Since it was said that invitations were sent, it seems that they have agreed."
"Oh, in that case, you should go and take a look. That way you won't have to figure out how to sneak in, which will save you a lot of trouble."
"Well, I'll give him some more supplies as a delivery fee later. I should always thank him for his help."
"Okay, you can handle it as you see fit."
After changing his clothes, Zhan Siyu went downstairs and saw Shen Xingzhou sitting in the hall.
"Hello, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Have you had breakfast? If you haven't, I'll have someone go to the cafeteria and get you a meal."
Shen Xingzhou was somewhat flattered by Zhan Siyu's question, after all, food in many bases is very precious and is generally not given to outsiders.
"I've already eaten, thank you. I came today to deliver this invitation. A maximum of five people can attend. Here's the invitation, please keep it safe." With that, he handed over the invitation.
Zhan Siyu didn't stand on ceremony. He took the invitation, glanced at the time and place, and put it in his jacket pocket.
"Mozi, hand the backpack I just packed to Mr. Shen."
Upon hearing the instructions, Situ Mo handed the backpack to Shen Xingzhou.
Shen Xingzhou was somewhat confused, not understanding why he was being given something. "Mr. Zhan, what's this?"
"These are gifts to thank Mr. Shen. Please accept them without hesitation. You might need my help in the future."
"Um... I don't think that's necessary. I just asked casually for you, there's really no need to be so polite."
"No, that won't do. Helping is helping, and besides, you came all this morning to deliver the invitation, which has already wasted your time. I'd feel bad if you didn't accept it."
Finally, Shen Xingzhou seemed to remember something and put away the supplies Zhan Siyu had given him.
"Then thank you again, Mr. Zhan. Before I leave, I'd like to give you a little tip: be careful of the superhumans in your base, and don't be alone."
"Thank you, Mozi. Please see him out."
After seeing Shen Xingzhou off, Zhan Siyu pondered his words. It seemed that those scientists had started down the same path as in their previous life, and wouldn't stop until they had wiped out all of humanity.
He then scoffed, saying that in this life he only needed to protect his own base brothers, and he couldn't care less about the others.
He then got up and went upstairs to continue his sweet time with his wife.
A week later.
The security facilities at Zhan Nan Base were finally all installed and completed, and even the base's signboard was hung up. Only then did it truly resemble a base.
Meanwhile, Nanxiangwan also posted the base's replacement points and system.
The announcement stated: a second-order crystal core can be exchanged for 10 points, a third-order core for 20 points, and so on.
There are also sanitary napkins for women, which can be exchanged for 20 points per pack. This made many women in the base very happy, as they no longer have to be unable to go out during their periods.
After all, in the apocalypse, a woman's menstrual period is an easy target for zombies, since the smell of blood is impossible to cover up.
As a result, many women are afraid to go out during their menstrual period.
Now the base not only provides women with daily necessities, but also has many supplies that can no longer be found elsewhere.
For example, shampoo, shower gel, tissues, baby formula, men's razors—basically anything you can find in a supermarket, you can find at the Zhannan Points Store.
Of course, even those without special abilities earn points by working every day, with 8 hours as the standard and 15 points per day.
There are many generators in the South-facing evening space. To facilitate the management of points, she specially commissioned someone to make a batch of points cards, which can only be used by the local computer.
This also makes management easier.
As the Zhan Nan Base's system became more and more formalized, it also attracted many survivors who were wandering outside.
Soon, the number of people at the station south increased.
Even the squads are going on missions more and more frequently.
Since everything in the shops requires crystal cores to exchange, even the canteen requires 5 points to have a full meal. The only good thing is that Zhan Nan's restaurant offers 5 points per person for all you can eat, as long as you don't waste food. If anyone is caught wasting food, they will be punished with 100 points, or even kicked out of the base.
Wasting food in the apocalypse is practically suicide.
That day, Xiao Jing and Shangguan Yu brought back a disheveled man, only to find out upon seeing him that he was their brother, Nangong Chen.
"Ah Zhan, hurry up and save him! We were almost starving when we found him. We don't know how he survived after the apocalypse. Look how thin he is."
"Let the medical team come and take a look. I don't know how to treat patients, and where can I find someone to help me?"
"Ayu, go and call someone. I'll talk to Azhan."
Without hesitation, Shangguan Yu turned around and went to find the doctor.
After the person left, Xiao Jing said, "When we were looking for supplies today, we met someone at a garbage dump. We initially thought he was crazy, but Xiao Chen remembered us and kept calling our names. When we went over to check, we realized it was him. He was so pitiful. He doesn't have any special abilities."
"Hey, why don't you carry him upstairs and clean him up properly? It's not good to treat him like this. As long as he's still alive, that's all that matters. There's always a way to help with superpowers."
"What do you mean? Superpowers...?"
"Yes, we'll be able to activate superpowers in ordinary people soon, so go up and take care of them. Keep this a secret for now, we'll talk about it once we've confirmed it."
Xiao Jing knew that now was not the time to question them, so he had no choice but to resign himself to taking his brother upstairs to be cleaned up first.
