However, Lu Sheng is very strict in selecting allies, preferring to have none rather than accept inferior ones.
Even though they were turned away by Lu Sheng many times, people still came to his door every day wanting to form an alliance.
Meanwhile, as M City was booming, Xiao Ning's Blue Ocean Base was also making rapid progress in the central region. In just two months, it had already conquered half of the bases in the central region, becoming the undisputed overlord of the central region.
"I thought Xiao Ning was just average before, but how come he's been on a winning streak lately?"
At the Allied Forces meeting, Ma Dongmei crossed her arms and questioned.
Although Xiao Ning was famous before, the strength of the major bases was basically in a relatively balanced range, and there were very few instances of such one-sided crushing.
Apart from Lu Sheng's base, the remaining large bases generally keep to themselves and rarely take the initiative to expand their territory like Xiao Ning.
Su Zheng frowned and distributed the latest news from the front lines to everyone. "I heard that Xiao Ning's strength has suddenly increased dramatically. His battles with the major bases are almost all one-sided and crushing. Those bases don't even have the ability to fight back."
"Could it be that Xiao Ning has found a way to enhance his superpowers?" Zhao Mujia boldly speculated.
Lu Sheng pursed his lips slightly. It was already three years into the apocalypse, and according to the previous timeline, some bases should have already researched things like ability enhancement agents.
Could it be that Xiao Ning has already cracked the enhancement agent in just two months?
Just as everyone was filled with curiosity about Xiao Ning's manager during this period, Lü Song soon walked in with a radio.
"Blue Ocean Base has issued a notice saying that it will announce information about the ability enhancement agent, and an auction will be held at Blue Ocean Base in three days to publicly auction the related drugs." Lu Song hurriedly entered the room and relayed the radio message to everyone.
Upon hearing this news, everyone present reacted with varying expressions.
"It's like what I said came true! I never thought this kid would actually develop an enhancement agent!" Zhao Mujia excitedly slapped the back of his chair.
The ability enhancement agent is of great significance to those with superpowers. If it could be sold to the public, it would be a major boon to humanity's fight against zombies.
So everyone immediately agreed that they would go to the Blue Ocean Base in three days to see for themselves what Xiao Ning was really up to.
Three days later, Lu Sheng and the others arrived at the new address of the Blue Ocean Base in the central region on time.
Xiao Ning, with his usual harmless smile, waited outside the base for Lu Sheng and the others to arrive.
Contrary to Lu Sheng and the others' expectations, the Blue Ocean Base was not rushed into construction just because the new site was completed. Instead, the entire base was expanded to an extremely luxurious scale based on the original site.
The base has everything from amusement parks to commercial areas, and it's almost exactly the same as it was before the apocalypse.
If it weren't for the severe shortage of goods sold in the commercial district, which was comparable to the prosperity of M City.
Xiao Ning even specially laid out a luxurious wool red carpet that was dozens of meters long for Lu Sheng and others, and arranged many mutated roses on both sides of the red carpet.
"This person has such a vulgar taste. Sister Lu dislikes pink roses the most." Zhang Xiaojuan commented on the spot, and highly praised Teacher Xu's aesthetic sense, "The gifts from our Teacher Xu are much better. They are understated, luxurious, and meaningful. They were even made by hand."
Lu Sheng smiled but didn't say anything. The group followed Xiao Ning all the way to the banquet hall that had been prepared in advance.
There were ten tables in the banquet hall, which were used to entertain the senior executives of several large bases who came to participate in the auction.
Xiao Ning thoughtfully arranged for Lu Sheng and the others to sit by the window with the best view, and even prepared a pre-dinner dessert for them.
The dishes were also closer to the local tastes of the capital, and almost every detail blatantly showed the preferential treatment given to Lu Sheng.
Xiao Ning looked at the dishes with confidence.
He made it so obvious, any woman would be at least slightly moved, right?
Lu Sheng did take a slightly longer look at the ingredients in front of him.
I didn't expect the Blue Ocean Base to progress so quickly. It's almost up to the level of the cheapest boxed meals in their vending machines, but they just don't taste as good as the ones from the vending machines.
"This was prepared especially for you. Eat as much as you like. You can make any requests here."
Han Rui couldn't help but roll her eyes. "How greasy! Does he think he's handsome?"
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ning clapped his hands, and his subordinates brought over a large bowl of cat food mixed with freeze-dried food.
"This is specially prepared for your cat. I don't know if it will suit your taste."
