Chapter 720: Space Anomaly
When Zhao Gang and his group returned to the Mountain God Base, the entire Mountain God Base was in full swing.
After Wu Yue sent someone back the news of cleaning up the Panshui base, the people at the Shanshen base couldn't sit still and were looking forward to going to the Panshui base together to look for something useful.
Compared to the larger number of ordinary people here, there are more people with special abilities over there, and naturally they took away more supplies. Now that there is an opportunity to get a bargain for free, no one wants to miss it.
For fear of being rejected, they solemnly promised not to compete with the people from Yuebanwan. Some people even said directly that they didn't want anything and just wanted to see the miserable situation of the people in Panshui base.
This resulted in the entire Mountain God Base becoming busy when they returned with the things.
The Yuebanwan team members did not make any big moves in the Mountain God Base during the few days that Lu Weiyi was away. Instead, they gathered in the central area in a low-key manner to study and collect the things that Qi Le left behind.
Ji Zheng and Fang Tang had asked about it openly and secretly, but their arrangements for the Mountain God Base were all blocked by Zhuang Mingxu - they had not yet decided what to do with the residents here.
They could only continue to maintain the operation of the base as before, but it was obvious that everyone was feeling uneasy.
As soon as Zhao Gang and his large group of people appeared at the gate of the Mountain God Base, they were reported. Zhou He led them to the core area where Yueban Bay was located, and received various looks along the way.
Even though their situation was dire, these people would at most look at them with resentment, but no one dared to approach them openly.
"Where is Base Captain Lu?" Zhuang Mingxu, who came out to greet them, looked around and didn't find Lu Weiyi, so he asked the leader Zhao Gang.
"Captain Lu said he wanted to go see Sun Cheng and the others, so he separated from us at the entrance," said Zhao Gang.
Zhuang Mingxu didn't ask any more questions. He silently counted the number of people and asked about their situation over the past two days.
I was deeply saddened to hear that the entire Xinghai base was occupied by mutant rats.
"It seems that the situation outside is not optimistic," Zhou He sighed, which also means that they need to return as soon as possible.
Especially when the surrounding areas were all sprayed with drugs to inhibit animal reproduction, Zhuang Mingxu wanted to use too many animals as the first barrier of Yueban Bay, but he did not use them. If the original reproduction speed was followed, plus the current level, I am afraid the situation of the base is not optimistic.
"Let's think about a way to return first. When Xiaoyi comes back, we will start discussing it." After Zhuang Mingxu learned about what happened, he had a general understanding of the remaining people.
"From today on, you are a member of the Yuebanwan Suicide Squad, a unique team affiliated with the base commander Lu Weiyi." Zhuang Mingxu stood tall among a group of psychics without any fear or stage fright.
But Wu Yue and Zhao Gang didn't dare to let him confront this group of people without any cover. The two of them stood beside him, alert as they were afraid that someone would attack him without martial ethics.
"Since you have made it this far, I believe that you are all unwilling to die. Don't try to do things that will drag others down with you. Before this base, you still had the opportunity to choose an easy death, but here, you only have one choice," Zhuang Mingxu said coldly, "and that is to die in the fight against zombies and mutant creatures."
"If someone sets his sights on the psychics or ordinary people around him, or even the safety of the base," Zhuang Mingxu smiled meaningfully, "don't think that the healing system in Yueban Bay is just for show."
"As long as you are alive, I will make you go through all the laboratories. As for death..." Zhuang Mingxu looked at the corpses standing in the corner and snapped his fingers at one of them. The man in front immediately walked towards him.
When his white pupils were staring at someone, they looked particularly scary.
“Zombies…”
"This is a zombie..."
"What zombie? Isn't this Liu Sheng who exploded after failing to upgrade?"
"He turned into a zombie?"
"…definitely not a living person"
The wounded soldiers who were standing silently took a step back when they saw this scene, and looked at Zhuang Mingxu with vigilance.
“In today’s world, no one says that death will make you completely safe.” Seeing that he had successfully scared everyone, Zhuang Mingxu did something else, and the dead people returned to the team where he was standing. Everyone looked and found that in an inconspicuous corner, there were dozens of people standing neatly, all dressed exactly the same. They looked like they were not living people. There were indeed familiar faces among them, and what Wang Bing and they had said before was completely confirmed.
"Go find Mo Tiantian for treatment, eat something and rest, then report back on the team's situation."
"OK……"
"Wait a minute." Before Zhao Gang could finish his reply, someone interrupted and asked Zhuang Mingxu, "Is it true that people like us won't live long? Also, will Yuebanwan's healing system be used by us?"
Zhuang Mingxu did not answer directly, "As long as your value is high enough, all the resources of Yueban Bay will be tilted towards you. Not to mention the treatment department, all the experts and scholars in the research institute will try their best to prolong your life."
"Think about how to make you more valuable."
After Zhuang Mingxu finished speaking, he saw Lu Weiyi and a group of people walking towards him in the distance. The child on his chest saw him from afar and immediately called out "Dad" in a clear and crisp voice.
"Hey, baby Taotao." Seeing that Taotao recognized him, Zhuang Mingxu immediately ran towards the two of them without any of the momentum he had when speaking before.
Wu Yue shrugged his shoulders and said to Zhao Gang, "There is a temporary resting place for you over there. Come with me first. Xiao Liu will call Healer Mo over to help check your injuries."
"receive!"
A group of people followed Wu Yue and left. Over there, Zhuang Mingxu had already picked up Taotao again and was asking about everyone in Sun Cheng's situation.
"I'm fine now. I even feel like my abilities have improved." Sun Cheng has passed the stage of feeling sad for the sacrificed people when he woke up, and he looks much better.
"Yes, me too. I feel that my superpowers are recovering very quickly."
"You are so good, I just upgraded one level at a time!"
When Zhuang Mingxu heard this, he looked at the person they were talking about, and saw the shy man in the crowd smiling at him, "It was Captain Lu who saved us first, otherwise I would never have the chance to be upgraded."
Meeting Zhuang Mingxu's surprised gaze, Lu Weiyi nodded and said, "It is true that he is going to be upgraded."
"It's such a pity that we couldn't control the upgrade and it made too much noise, almost destroying the whole place."
"Yes, otherwise I would like to stay there for a few more days, maybe my supernatural power can be upgraded to the next level."
"Come on, the youngest one upgraded because he was about to upgrade anyway, it's too early for you..."
The group of people were talking at once. When they saw Wu Yue and Zhong Ye coming out, they immediately ran up to them and asked about each other's situation.
Only then did Zhuang Mingxu have time to be alone with Lu Weiyi and listen to him talk about what had happened.
"The villa is ruined." Lu Weiyi was also a little helpless.
The original plan was to bring them out after they were all awake, but on the way back, Lu Weiyi noticed energy fluctuations in the space.
Considering that there were space fluctuations when the mutant rat king was brought into the space, Lu Weiyi didn't take it seriously at the time, and the returning team was attacked by mutant birds at that time.
By the time he realized something was wrong, the youngest brother's upgrade had already entered the final stage.
Lu Weiyi hurriedly separated from Zhao Gang and his group, and just in time for the villa to explode due to the energy shock, and he brought the remaining people out.
"It was indeed thrilling. Did it cause any damage to the space?" Zhuang Mingxu asked.
"No." Lu Weiyi had obvious confusion on his face, and even grabbed Zhuang Mingxu's arm and led him to the room.
"Wait a moment." Lu Weiyi seemed to remember something, turned around and walked outside, looking around the yard, "Zhou He, I have brought back all the mutant rats from the Xinghai base. You take people to dig up the crystal cores that we haven't had time to dig out."
"Don't--" Zhou He reacted very quickly and stopped Lu Weiyi's actions. He saw him almost jogging towards this side and pointing to a place a little further away, "Throw it there, we're still living here for a few more days, don't bury it."
A large open space had been moved there to make room for the Abyss Mushrooms, and it was obviously much wider. Lu Weiyi simply threw half of it out, and the dead rats piled up into half a hill, which was creepy to see.
"These rats have eaten everything," Lu Weiyi reminded before entering the door.
In fact, nowadays they no longer care about animals that have eaten humans. After all, the mutated animals and plants in the outside world have basically eaten zombies or humans, so it is impossible for them not to eat them. The reminder is just to make those who are taboo pay attention.
"I understand. I'll deal with it first. Don't waste it." Zhou He said, and immediately asked people to go together. Lu Weiyi returned to the room with peace of mind and told Zhuang Mingxu about the situation of the mutant rat king.
"The whole body is transformed into energy?" Zhuang Mingxu was surprised.
"Yes." Lu Weiyi told him all the experiments he had done, and then said, "I feel that the energy seems to be different after the SSS level."
"Moreover, the person who upgraded in the space did not use any crystal cores, not even a single crystal core." This was what surprised Lu Weiyi even more.
You know, even he himself was pushed up to a higher level by the crystal core. After the upgrade, he did not get any energy replenishment from the crystal core, and his energy deficit was so severe that his spirit body almost appeared.
Zhuang Mingxu looked at Taotao who was playing with the space jade in her arms and absorbing it at the same time. He didn't understand what was happening for a moment. He followed Lu Weiyi and re-entered the space. Except for the villa becoming a ruin and the two unconscious people, the entire space was no different.
"I didn't... feel anything," Zhuang Mingxu said, looking towards the place where the Rat King's head was placed on one side of the static space.
He glanced at the rat's head, then turned to Lu Weiyi, repeatedly asking doubtfully, "Are you sure you didn't see a rat's head?"
"No," Lu Weiyi said, feeling that something was wrong, and asked, "What did you see?"
"A giant rat head with a piece cut off!"
