Seeing the guarded state of everyone at the base, Jiang Qingwan did not advance rashly after being attacked by arrows.
It's not that I'm afraid of attacks from people with superpowers.
The only fear was that if they rushed in as originally planned, it would not only deplete the superpowers of the superhumans, but also scare people with low mental fortitude into serious injury.
They are indeed our own people, so let's be cautious.
Jiang Qingwan waited silently.
Ye Qi turned his head to gaze at Jiang Qingwan's face, which was always so bright and confident, with an unparalleled beauty that was hard to look away from.
Jiang Qingwan saw the defensive barrier created by the space ability users being removed from the sky above the base and knew that the time had come.
She called out, "Ye Qi, let's go."
No reply was received.
Jiang Qingwan turned her head in confusion and saw Ye Qi staring blankly in her direction.
"Stop looking, let's go." Jiang Qingwan stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Ye Qi's eyes.
Ye Qi snapped out of his daze and, his mouth moving faster than his brain, replied, "Okay."
Jiang Qingwan set off again, but this time, she moved at a slower pace, almost leisurely.
Jiang Qingwan appeared gracefully, meeting the expectant gazes of the crowd.
Old Wu rubbed his eyes in disbelief. This time, he could see Jiang Qingwan's face clearly.
Not only him, but everyone could see Jiang Qingwan's face clearly now.
Jiang Qingwan raised her hand and waved, "Hi everyone! Long time no see."
The familiar voice was like a voice-activated lock being matched to the correct one, unlocking the switches for each base's residents.
The base's defense against the zombie horde was nearing completion, with only a few scattered zombies remaining. Everyone was less tense and began to cheer.
"The hero has returned!"
"Waaaah, I knew our nation was the greatest nation..."
"Sister Jiang! Invincible!"
"Sister Jiang, Sister Jiang, Sister Jiang, our goddess!"
The heartfelt congratulations from everyone were all expressions of joy at surviving a disaster.
Humanity, dawn has broken!
Gu Ningyue couldn't resist and conjured up a large golden rose in a flash.
The long branches stood on the ground, and the roses grew tall and large, standing out from the crowd.
Gu Ningyue cupped her hands around a megaphone and shouted in a drawn-out voice, "Sister Jiang—can you see me?!"
Jiang Qingwan was also searching for Gu Ningyue, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, in the dense crowd.
Hearing her shout, I instantly locked onto the direction.
Jiang Qingwan left Ye Qi behind and was immediately by Gu Ningyue's side.
Jiang Qingwan couldn't help but stroke Gu Ningyue's hair, her voice softening slightly with a hint of doting: "You've worked hard."
Gu Ningyue rubbed her head against Jiang Qingwan's palm, but after only a couple of rubs, she quickly pulled away.
His eyes narrowed, hands on his hips, and he said with displeasure, "We're a team, what do you mean by leaving me here? Don't do it again!"
Jiang Qingwan quickly reassured her, "This time is an exception. We'll never be apart again."
Ye Qi had just arrived when he heard Jiang Qingwan say these words, and he felt a pang of jealousy, as if a bottle of vinegar had been spilled on him.
Her words were full of sarcasm: "Oh. You're still not separated, Gu Ningyue, how old are you?"
"Qingwan, look at him—", Gu Ningyue stomped her foot and clung to Jiang Qingwan's arm, acting coquettishly.
Jiang Qingwan rolled her eyes at Ye Qi. "Gu Ningyue is right. We're in the same team, so we definitely can't be separated. What's wrong? Do you want to be separated?"
When Ye Qi heard Jiang Qingwan personally express that she included him as one of the inseparable members, he was satisfied and no longer hesitated. He quickly denied it, saying, "Of course we are together, we can't be separated."
Kangxi arrived late, walking slowly.
With a smile in his eyes, he stood in front of Jiang Qingwan, clasped his hands in greeting, and then slowly bowed.
Jiang Qingwan did not dodge and accepted the bow.
After Kang Xiyang finished bowing, he said, "Everyone is very happy to see you return safely. I presume you have already dealt with the extraterrestrial demons?"
"Truly, heroes emerge from among the young."
"Stop." Jiang Qingwan couldn't stand Kang Xiyang's bookish appearance; they weren't that much older than each other.
His act, as if he were an elder, created a sense of disconnect for the audience.
"Hahaha." Kang Xiyang laughed heartily. "Isn't it because I was thinking of representing the base level and making things more official and formal? It seems that's not suitable for our communication."
Jiang Qingwan looked at the equally young Kang Xiyang and said, "If you were 50 years old this year, it wouldn't be too late for you to say this to me."
"No, no. It's better to be young. Let's talk about the extraterrestrial demons." Kang Xiyang interrupted Jiang Qingwan.
“I might have killed the extraterrestrial demons. But I can’t guarantee it,” Jiang Qingwan said.
"Oh? Is there any reason for these extraterrestrial demons to be resurrected?" Kang Xiyang raised his eyebrows, looking like he was all ears.
“We cannot define the extraterrestrial demons based on our limited knowledge.” A dark glint flashed in Jiang Qingwan’s eyes.
She didn't want to explain further, and gave Kang Xiyang a look: "We'll talk about it in private later."
Kang Xiyang also realized that they were in a public place. There were some things that were not suitable for others to know the specific details of.
The members of the Chaos Faction at the base, who were straining to gather intelligence, remained outwardly calm upon hearing this, but inwardly they were filled with hatred: What exactly were these words that we were not allowed to hear?
Kangxi gave his trusted confidant a brief instruction, telling him to assign a few people to guard the base according to the usual duty schedule.
Others can evacuate the base's perimeter walls and live normally within the base or go out to do missions.
The latest orders were quickly passed down layer by layer.
Gu Ningyue was also able to evacuate from the wall and followed Jiang Qingwan and the others to the base's conference room.
Kang Xiyang took a paper bucket from the cabinet, picked out a few tea leaves, and put them into the teapot on the conference table.
Pour in boiling water, and after ten seconds, discard the first brew of tea from the pot.
"So particular, even rinsing the tea?" Jiang Qingwan watched Kang Xiyang's smooth and skillful actions and felt that he was a meticulous person.
"When entertaining guests, of course we must prepare tea. It's a pity we don't have a tea master here, otherwise I certainly wouldn't be the one brewing the tea." Kangxi Yang had been in officialdom for many years and knew the art of hospitality well.
"Tea brewed by Major General Kang himself is even more prestigious," Jiang Qingwan said politely.
The tea soup that was poured out was a rich, clear amber color, clearly a rare and excellent tea even before the apocalypse.
"Please, please." Kang Xiyang held the tea tray with both hands and handed it to Jiang Qingwan.
Jiang Qingwan held the cup, took a small sip, and savored the refreshing tea. The tea was smooth and mellow, and swallowing it made her mouth water, as if she had the whole of spring.
"This tea is quite good," Jiang Qingwan commented.
Kang Xiyang then served two more cups to Ye Qi and Gu Ningyue.
Four people sat around a round table.
A pot of tea was placed on the table.
Kang Xiyang came alone and instructed everyone not to enter the meeting room.
Including his superiors.
Because he was preparing to do something big.
