Chapter 52 Return to the Island Base
It was already the next day when Lin Xiyue and the other three returned to the island base.
Gu Liuchuan and Yao Xi couldn't sleep all night. They were worried that something might happen to Lin Xiyue and the other three, so they got up early in the morning and waited for them at the base gate.
Yao Xi saw two motorboats coming towards the island from a distance and excitedly said to Gu Liuchuan, "Liuchuan, look, those are Gu Qinghan and the others on the motorboats in the distance. They seem to be back!"
"It's really Qinghan and the others! That's great! They're back safely!"
"Yao Xi, let's go and greet them."
After saying this, Gu Liuchuan happily took Yao Xi's wrist and walked with her towards the island pier.
"Your sister is waiting for us!" Lin Xiyue hugged Gu Qinghan's waist in his arms and said in her ear.
"Okay, let's get ready to go down." Gu Qinghan held the handlebars of the motorcycle with his right hand and gently patted the back of her hand around his waist with his left hand to remind her.
Ji Yuan and Du Luoqing got off the motorboat with Lin Xiyue and the others. The four of them followed Gu Liuchuan and Yao Xi into the island base.
As they walked, Lin Xiyue said to Gu Liuchuan, "Sister, let's go to the underground warehouse of your island base! I'll put out the supplies I've collected over the past two days for you to sort out."
"Sister, you don't know. We were searching for supplies in the container these past two days and encountered a Level 5 zombie king. This zombie king was a bit difficult to deal with. Lin Xiyue used all her strength to kill it. As a result, Lin Xiyue's superpowers were exhausted and she fainted."
"I'm saying this to alert your island base. The zombies are getting stronger." Gu Qinghan said in a serious tone.
Gu Liuchuan nodded, "Yes, Qinghan. I know!"
Yao Xi asked worriedly, "A level five zombie king? Liuchuan, it seems we also need to work hard to improve our own abilities."
While talking, Gu Liuchuan led them to the underground stairs. After a while, they arrived at the underground warehouse of the island base. This was the first time that Lin Xiyue and the other three saw the underground warehouse of the island base.
Two huge concrete doors appeared in front of everyone. There was a steering wheel lock at the door. Gu Liuchuan turned it hard and the door slowly opened.
"Let's go in!" Gu Liuchuan walked in first.
"Yao Xi and I can open the underground warehouse. In addition to being an underground warehouse, it also has an underground passage leading to the urban area of Yucheng. It is also an important channel for the superiors to transport materials underground." Yao Xi introduced it to them.
Ji Yuan and Du Luoqing nodded thoughtfully. They looked at the warehouse in front of them, which was as big as hundreds of basketball courts and had tens of thousands of iron shelves. Each area had designated areas for the placement of supplies.
Now many shelves in the warehouse are empty, with only a few shelves still having some supplies.
Seeing how large the warehouse was, Lin Xiyue, without a second thought, unannounced everyone and released a large amount of supplies from the Pisces space. The supplies were a bit messy, with everything: clothes, canned food, medicine, milk powder, instant noodles, water, shoes, flour, rice, self-heating rice...
"These are the supplies we were able to collect in the past two days. Please arrange for someone to sort them out and classify them!"
Gu Liuchuan looked at the supplies in front of her that were like two mountains and was so shocked that she was speechless. Such a large amount of supplies was enough to feed their base for a while.
Yao Xi looked at the supplies in front of her and burst into tears of excitement. "That's great! These, along with the seafood we got last time, are enough to get our base through the winter. I see there's a lot of children's clothing, so the kids will have new clothes for the New Year. Thank you so much."
Gu Qinghan said in a tired tone, "Since the supplies have been collected for you, the four of us should go back and rest for a while so that we can make some preparations for going to Sakura Country."
Lin Xiyue thought for a moment, then took out a five-ton bucket of Lingxi water from the Pisces space. He smiled at Gu Liuchuan and Yao Xi and said, "Here are ten tons of Lingxi water. I'm sure you know its effects. It can strengthen and change a person's physique and accelerate wound healing."
"You can handle it yourselves. I suggest adding a little bit to the children's water every day to enhance their physical fitness and reduce the risk of illness. Of course, the soldiers in your base, you and Yao Xi can also drink it. Drinking Lingxi water every day and doing physical training can make you stronger."
"We are leaving for Sakura Country the day after tomorrow. This is all I can do to help you." Lin Xiyue said in a somewhat dejected tone.
Gu Qinghan took her hand and twisted it, then said to Gu Liuchuan, "Sister, you and Yao Xi are also level three psychics. Apart from absorbing crystal cores to improve your abilities, there is no other way! With this Lingxi water, your base will have more protection."
Gu Liuchuan was so moved that she shed tears. She choked up and said, "I know what to do now. Thank you, Lin Xiyue, and thank you, Qinghan."
Yao Xi was also a little moved and her eyes were red. She thought that the island base would be destroyed in her and Liuchuan's hands. They had a great responsibility. The island base carried the future of Xia Country. They had to be determined not to live anymore and live until dawn.
The four of them returned to Lin Xiyue's residence. Lin Xiyue took out a pot of spicy chicken, braised fish, sweet and sour pork ribs and a pot of white rice from the space. The dishes were steaming.
Ji Yu'an looked at the table full of steaming food and couldn't help swallowing. She tactfully ran to the kitchen to get four bowls and four pairs of chopsticks.
Du Luoqing also helped everyone scoop rice and distribute chopsticks.
Gu Qinghan considerately picked up some food for Lin Xiyue, and everyone ate with gusto. They couldn't remember how long it had been since they had sat down and enjoyed a steaming hot meal.
After seeing that they were all full, Lin Xiyue took out four bottles of Lingxi water from the Pisces space and distributed them to her companions. After taking a sip, she said in a serious tone, "The next step is to divide the crystal cores."
"Clatter, clatter" five or six hundred crystal cores poured out from Lin Xiyue's Pisces space. Gu Qinghan distributed them to the four people. These crystal cores were all blue, but one of them was red. This crystal core was much larger than the ordinary blue crystal core.
Lin Xiyue took the red crystal core in his hand and weighed it. "This should be the crystal core of the level 5 zombie king. I will cut it into four pieces. Each of you can take a little and absorb it to see if there are any changes."
"Let me go first! I already have level six dual-system abilities, and I want to upgrade again to see if there are any changes." Lin Xiyue said uncertainly.
Ji Yuan thought for a moment, then pushed the thumb-sized red crystal core in front of Lin Xiyue and said in a serious tone, "I think you should become stronger. We don't know what will happen when we go to Sakura Country the day after tomorrow. So I'll give it to Xiyue. As long as you can become stronger, we can guarantee our survival."
When Du Luoqing heard Ji Yuan say this, she also pushed the thumb-sized red crystal core in front of Lin Xiyue and said, "I agree with Xiaoyu. I will give all my red crystal cores to you, Boss."
Gu Qinghan also twisted the red crystal core and placed it in front of Lin Xiyue, smiling and saying, "I also want you to become stronger and protect us! I'll give you mine too."
"Well... okay then!" Lin Xiyue looked at the three red crystal cores in front of him, and after thinking about it, he decided to absorb one first and see what happens!
