Chapter 146 can promise you the highest honor and the best material support.
"The military attaches great importance to recruiting and cultivating awakened talents. As you know, once we enter the end times, all the rules of the old era will be rewritten, society will be reshuffled, and the official deterrent will no longer be effective. The consequences will be unimaginable."
Xiao Li had already been very straightforward, and at the end he added:
"Miss Lin, as long as you are willing to join our side, the country can promise you the highest honor, and you and your family will receive the best material support in the apocalypse."
"Furthermore, you will receive the highest level of treatment in the future when it comes to the allocation of resources, especially those related to enhancing the strength of Awakened Ones."
Whether there will be even more powerful abilities than fire-based abilities in the future is anyone's guess, but so far, Lin Muyan's status as a fire-based ability awakener is so high that the country has to pay attention to her.
Now that things have come to this point, Lin Muyan couldn't afford to be pretentious or appear arrogant.
She thought for a moment and said:
"Colonel Xiao, I will consider this matter carefully. Before that, if there is anything I can do to help, I will do my best."
She didn't refuse, but said she needed time to consider. Xiao Li understood Lin Muyan's meaning and stopped pressing her.
In his view, Lin Muyan is currently qualified to negotiate, and the other party is willing to provide assistance to the military, and is not arrogant enough to make exorbitant demands.
In this respect, Lin Muyan has already surpassed many young people who are about to receive glory.
He took out a specially made phone, with a black body and a thickness twice that of a smartphone.
“Ms. Lin, this is a military-grade mobile phone. Even if the regular network is down, you can still contact me using this phone.”
Lin Muyan reached out and took the military communication phone, which only contained Xiao Li's number. She accepted it with a smile.
After chatting for a few more minutes, Xiao Li noticed that the girl, who was covering her face so he couldn't see her features and whose voice sounded very young, was very wary. She knew very well what she should and shouldn't say, and he couldn't get any information out of her.
So he thought for a moment and said:
"Miss Lin, may I ask you one last question?"
"Speaking."
Xiao Li's eyes flashed, and thinking of the live stream, he asked:
"I watched both of your live streams. There was also a live stream by someone called 'Heiress of the Shen Group,' who awakened spatial abilities. My question is, is it true that every awakened person can simultaneously obtain a personal space of random size at the time of awakening?"
As Xiao Li finished speaking, his gaze was fixed intently on Lin Muyan.
This will determine his future decisions: whether or not to compete with Huang Zhen to invite the space-age awakener. It all depends on Lin Muyan's answer.
Although they are special operations forces and carry out dangerous missions, and the team members they need are preferably experts with self-defense capabilities, the ability of having a personal space is too tempting. Who wouldn't want to have it in the apocalypse?
Lin Muyan didn't think much of it. She had said those words in the comments section during Shen Jiaojiao's live stream, and they were indeed true. So she said:
"It's true. Whenever an awakened person awakens a non-spatial ability, they will simultaneously gain a personal space. However, I can't say for sure how big this space is."
Xiao Li's eyes lit up: "So, Miss Lin has it too?"
Lin Muyan nodded, and the next second, the coffee cup in her hand disappeared into thin air, only to reappear on the table a moment later.
Seeing this, Xiao Li, the person in charge, looked like a country bumpkin, his eyes practically glowing green!
"However... the personal space obtained randomly is usually very small, so Colonel Xiao shouldn't have too high expectations."
Lin Muyan looked at Xiao Li, wondering if this colonel would awaken his superpowers in the future.
They're colonels now, but what about in the future? Will those who haven't awakened their special abilities be stripped of their ranks and reduced to ordinary soldiers?
Xiao Li lowered his head, as if deep in thought, and after a few seconds said:
"What if the awakened ability is spatial ability? Will this space be very large? How is it different from the personal space of other awakened individuals?"
[This young colonel is quite eager to learn. Of course, a personal space is better for someone with awakened spatial abilities, as its size can definitely increase with their strength.]
The personal space of other awakened individuals is fixed, only enough to hold a few personal belongings, but it's better than nothing.
[That's right, at least in this way, the rarity and value of spatial abilities are greatly reduced.]
[The spatial ability of Lin Muyan is still the most powerful; her space is probably unique.]
Lin Muyan glanced at the comments, then looked at Xiao Li. This guy had a lot of questions, but she still answered him.
"As far as I know, the personal space of a spatial ability awakener can expand as their strength increases, while the space of other awakeners is fixed. However, how difficult it is to increase one's strength and how much it is reflected in the size of the space is unknown."
Xiao Li seemed to understand something. After thanking Lin Muyan for clearing up his doubts, he suggested that he take her to visit the prison.
Lin Muyan did not refuse; this was the first time she had ever been to a prison of this caliber in her entire life.
Soon, Lin Muyan discovered the hardened criminals who had been gathered together, as well as the zombies that had been brought in.
The criminals were all handcuffed and shackled, and the surrounding area was heavily guarded, making escape impossible.
Before Lin Muyan could ask, Xiao Li took the initiative to confess to her:
“These serious offenders are already on death row. We can’t let them escape from prison, but we also can’t waste manpower and resources on them. Tonight, the door between them will be opened.”
Lin Muyan was taken aback, only then realizing that the places where serious criminals and zombie experimental subjects were imprisoned were separated by only one door.
She had already guessed this, and it was a last resort to deal with these scourges as soon as possible while the military still had control.
Tonight, we'll open the gates and release zombies. Songmushan Prison will be converted into a zombie research center. It's a win-win situation to have so many zombies for research right after its establishment.
Before leaving, Lin Muyan boldly asked Xiao Li for a weapon. Xiao Li initially wanted to refuse, but then he thought that they couldn't stop the rise of the Awakened. The best strategy was to control as many Awakened as possible on their side from the very beginning.
Knowing that Lin Muyan was not a bad person at heart, Xiao Li took it upon himself to provide her with a box of pistols and two boxes of bullets.
Lin Muyan waved her hand and put the three boxes into her spatial storage right in front of Xiao Li, once again drawing a look of amazement and envy from him.
"Miss Lin, please let me know as soon as you have an answer. If you decide to join the military, please think of my Hidden Dragon Team first. I look forward to your joining us."
Lin Muyan smiled and agreed, then turned and disappeared into the icy snow.
She can stall for time, and once the Doomsday Fortress begins construction, she can then set the terms and sit on equal footing with the military at the negotiating table.
By the way, the Golden Shovel's cooldown time is up. There's a temple three subway stops away from Songmushan Prison; I heard it's incredibly effective for granting wishes there, but she hasn't been there yet.
Go dig for treasure at the feet of Buddha and see if you can believe in some metaphysics...
