With temperatures continuing to rise, a new round of solar storms is just around the corner.
In their previous lives, Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen gained their superpowers during this solar storm.
Although they didn't quite understand the principle, according to Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen's research in their previous lives, the necessary condition for gaining superpowers was exposure to sunlight full of radiation.
If you are in a high and open place, the probability of gaining superpowers will be greatly increased.
Besides humans, animals and plants can also acquire superpowers.
Before the apocalypse, Ye Ning had stockpiled a lot of seeds, and she wanted to try to obtain some mutated plants during this solar storm.
Ye Ning's space is already completely filled; it would be great if it could be upgraded.
"Jingchen, there are only 20 days left until the solar storm arrives. I'm a little nervous. What if my ability doesn't upgrade successfully?"
Ye Ning wrapped her arms around Xiao Jingchen's waist.
"Ye Ning, don't be nervous. Even if our superpowers can't be upgraded, our current abilities are enough to deal with zombies."
"I know, but I still hope we can become stronger." For some reason, Ye Ning has been feeling uneasy lately. Is being anxious and insecure a common problem for women?
Xiao Jingchen wrapped his arms around Ye Ning's waist and then kissed her.
After a long while, the two separated, their faces flushed.
"How are you feeling now?" Xiao Jingchen asked teasingly. "I sacrificed my looks, after all!"
"You're so annoying!" Ye Ning shoved him away.
"By the way, Jingchen, I'd like to go check on Uncle Gao's situation these next couple of days."
In order to expand her influence and gain an advantage in the era of superpowers, it would be best if her current teammates could all acquire some superpowers.
“That’s good. We haven’t been there to check on things since after the New Year.” Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen have been staying at the shelter ever since it was attacked.
The temperature in City A has now risen to -15 degrees Celsius, so Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen didn't drive snowmobiles this time, but instead drove a black off-road vehicle.
Ye Ning sat in the passenger seat, in front of her was an adorable, goofy-looking lucky cat figurine.
Without the biting cold wind, she felt a little unaccustomed.
"Ye Ning, buckle your seatbelts, we're off!" With the engine started, the off-road vehicle began to travel across the snowfield.
Half an hour later, the off-road vehicle arrived near the warehouse.
A wall has been erected around the warehouse, and hundreds of workers are working on it.
They were either building walls or mixing cement.
Everyone cast curious glances at Ye Ning's SUV.
Xiao Jingchen got out of the car first. He was tall and elegant, wearing a black windbreaker, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and a dignified air.
After getting out of the car, he went straight to the passenger seat and opened the door for Ye Ning.
Ye Ning stepped out of the car, wearing a camel-colored cashmere coat and matching lambskin boots.
Her long, chestnut-colored curly hair, red lips, and fair skin made her stand out.
Some sharp-eyed people recognized her immediately.
"It's Miss Ye! Miss Ye and Mr. Xiao are here!"
Thanks to Gao Feng's daily nagging about Ye Ning's help to the workers, they were all deeply grateful to Ye Ning.
Upon seeing Ye Ning, some people even burst into tears.
"Where is Gao Feng? Where is he?!"
Gao Feng, who was in the warehouse, quickly received the news and came out to greet them.
"Miss!"
"Uncle Gao, how's the project progressing?" Ye Ning asked as she walked.
"The interior of the warehouse is now basically complete. As you instructed, Miss, the extra warehouses have been demolished."
"The wall is almost finished, but it hasn't been painted yet."
Ye Ning inspected the area and found that the base was almost fully constructed.
"Uncle Gao, hurry up! The wall must be finished within ten days. All workers must be evacuated, and remember to build watchtowers at the four corners of the wall." With a zombie wall, the fewer people there are, the less likely they are to be in danger.
"Miss, is it in such a hurry?" The wall alone is fine, but with the watchtower added, time becomes a bit tight.
“That’s right, it must be completed within ten days.” Ye Ning said without hesitation. There were still more than ten days until the solar storm broke out, after which the zombies would thaw faster.
"Have Uncle Yun and the others returned yet?" Ye Ning asked.
"Not yet!" Uncle Yun hadn't returned to the warehouse since his last mission, and had been reporting his safety via satellite phone.
"Uncle Yun and the others should be back in the next few days. Once they return, they will work with you to set up an electric fence on the wall."
"Once the electric fence on the wall is fully installed, you must not go out. I will give you instructions via satellite phone. Remember, do not go out without my instructions!" Ye Ning instructed.
Although Gao Feng didn't know the specific reason, since it was Miss who said it, there must be a reason, just like when the extreme cold came.
After explaining a few more things to Xiao Jingchen, Ye Ning got into the car.
The warehouse is basically set up, and the base is beginning to take shape. Once the zombie outbreak is over, we can officially establish the base here.
Xiao Jingchen drove off at breakneck speed, heading back to the shelter.
"Watch out! There are rocks ahead!" But as they passed a small hill, rocks suddenly rolled down from it.
Xiao Jingchen slammed on the brakes.
"Jingchen, what's going on! Is this something someone did on purpose?" Ye Ning couldn't help but ask.
How could rocks suddenly slide down a normally stable hillside? It's clearly man-made.
"I don't know! But whoever it is, I won't be polite!"
Xiao Jingchen opened the car door and got out. The outside was empty; there was no one else in sight.
"Come out! I know you're nearby. Even if you don't come out, I'll find a way to find you!" Xiao Jingchen stood tall and elegant in the middle of the road, speaking coldly.
"If you don't come out now, don't blame me for being impolite!" Xiao Jingchen pulled out his pistol.
"No, no, no! I'm coming out!" A young man wearing a worn-out suit and gold-rimmed glasses emerged from behind a snowdrift.
Xiao Jingchen stared at him coldly, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes. No matter who it was, anyone who dared to provoke him should be prepared to die.
"Don't shoot. I mean no harm. I'm just trying to get your attention. I'm here to see Miss Ye."
Upon hearing him mention Ye Ning, Xiao Jingchen immediately engaged the safety on his pistol.
The man wearing gold-rimmed glasses was so anxious that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"I'm not lying to you, I really do know Miss Ye. You can ask Miss Ye and you'll know. I have very important information to exchange with you. Everything I said is true!"
