Chapter 44 A Recovering Family
More importantly,
The four words "Hope Base" are like a beacon in the darkness.
"Hope Base..."
Bai Li murmured and repeated,
They seem to be heading to a place called Hope Base.
There are relatively complete defenses, clean water sources, food rations, and even doctors and simple schools.
It is a rare shelter in the end times.
Bai Li's heart moved slightly.
Hope Base?
It sounds like an organized, orderly gathering of humans.
If my little ancestor could go there...
Will it be safer?
Can you access more human knowledge?
This thought just flashed through my mind.
It was immediately replaced by great vigilance.
Humanity,
In the end times, things are often more complicated and more dangerous than monsters.
She was particularly impressed by the sharp eyes of the bald leader.
and,
Their identities are too special.
A cat that can control zombies, with a baby, and a fat orange creature that looks like a primordial beast...
Once exposed,
The consequences are unimaginable.
Distance is also a big problem!
The journey to the northwest was long and fraught with danger. In their current state, a long journey would be tantamount to suicide.
strength!
They are not strong enough to protect themselves and their ancestors' secrets in human society.
When the bald man and Xiaoya returned to the convoy,
The convoy started again.
Skirting this ruin,
Heading northwest,
Gradually disappeared from Bai Li's spiritual perception range.
Bai Li breathed a sigh of relief.
The tense nerves relaxed.
The crisis was temporarily resolved.
She looked at the direction where the convoy disappeared.
Then she looked down at the little ancestor in the cardboard box, who was looking at her curiously with his big black eyes.
Look at the fat orange cat snoring in the corner and the alert calico cat.
Hope Base...
An idea quietly took root in her mind.
perhaps,
One day in the future,
When they are strong enough,
When the little ancestor needs a wider space for growth,
There would be a choice.
But now,
This is their home.
Bai Li stretched out her claws and gently touched the baby's little hand.
The sunlight shines through the gaps, onto the baby's rosy little face and onto Bai Li's body, where new white fur has grown.
The departure of the human convoy brought peace back to the tense basement.
Bai Li lay beside the cardboard box, watching the smoke and dust gradually dissipate outside.
But my heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
Hope Base...
A shelter built by humans, with order and defense,
For the little ancestor, perhaps it really is a better choice.
But right now,
They need time.
Need to become stronger,
More cards are needed.
Her eyes fell on the fat orange boy who was sleeping soundly in the corner.
This chubby guy,
The stomach is filled with the corpse of that horrible alien!
Alien crystal core!
That is definitely something more precious and more powerful than the Zombie King's Crystal Core!
If you can get it...
Bai Li's heartbeat quickened slightly.
She tried to transmit her thoughts to Fat Orange through a spiritual connection:
"Fat Orange, can you spit out the black thing you swallowed yesterday? I want what's inside its head."
Fat Orange opened one eye dazedly, and there was a hint of confusion and...disgust in his amber cat eyes?
It smacked its lips, as if savoring the taste of the alien, then shook its head decisively, making a gurgling sound in its throat.
The meaning is obvious: if it doesn’t taste good, don’t spit it out.
Bai Li: ...
She did not give up and tried several more times, even using her mental power to picture the appearance of the crystal core.
Fat Orange simply turned over, facing her with his fat butt, and his snoring became even louder.
Bai Li sighed helplessly.
It seems that there is no hope of getting Fat Orange to spit out the alien corpse on his own initiative for the time being.
This foodie only takes in and never gives out.
He doesn't listen to me at all, especially since I can't force him.
Bai Li can only force the fat orange cat to move, but cannot force the fat orange Yuan-devouring Beast to move.
It depends on Fat Orange's own wishes.
But Fat Orange will have to spit it out sooner or later, just like the chicken leg he swallowed before.
The matter of the crystal core has been put on hold for the time being.
Bai Li turned her attention back to herself.
After a few days of recuperation and passive absorption of spiritual energy,
Her injuries have mostly healed.
Large pieces of charred and carbonized hair fall off.
The newly grown, fine and soft white hair underneath is revealed.
Although it is still short, it covers the body like a thin blanket.
But that familiar, snowy, fluffy feel is returning.
She shone the light on a relatively smooth metal plate in the corner.
The reflection of a slightly thin, but sharp-eyed white cat with new fur appeared on it.
Well, the appearance is recovering!
Bai Li wagged his tail in satisfaction.
The spiritual power in the body has recovered to about ten points,
Mental strength is a blessing in disguise.
After the extreme overdraft and qualitative improvement,
The total amount and control power are far greater than before the explosion.
Just like a dry riverbed is widened and deepened to accommodate a more turbulent spiritual torrent.
Her mind moved slightly,
Spiritual perception spread like mercury.
Within a kilometer range,
The outline of ruins, wandering zombies, hiding mutant rats, and even the wriggling of earthworms deep underground...
All of this was clearly displayed on her map of consciousness.
This feeling of being in control of everything made her feel safe.
She tried to connect to three zombies scattered in different locations at the same time.
Instructions are delivered clearly and precisely.
One was rummaging through the rubble, trying to find useful metal fragments.
One was practicing writing more complex characters on the ground with a branch.
Another one was sent by Bai Li to a farther place to conduct limited reconnaissance in the northwest direction where the human convoy had disappeared.
Although the control distance is limited and real-time feedback is not possible,
But you can set simple instructions to let it record the terrain and dangers along the way.
After doing all this,
Bai Li only felt that the mental consumption was minimal.
With ease.
The recovery and improvement of her strength made her full of confidence in the future.
In the cardboard box,
Ling Xiao also recovered a lot of vitality.
His face was serious, his eyes slightly closed.
He tried hard to move the faint but more condensed spiritual energy in his dantian.
As the spiritual energy slowly and steadily flows along the tiny meridians,
He could feel that the muscles and bones of the baby's body seemed to be nourished and strengthened bit by bit.
Although it is still far from being able to cast spells at will,
But since the last time I tried my best to break the limit, it has been much better.
At least I'm no longer helpless.
Occasionally, he would try to mobilize that spiritual energy and condense it at his fingertips.
Although it can only emit a very faint, almost invisible blue light from the fingertips,
The duration is also pitifully short.
But it is undoubtedly a huge improvement.
He looked at his chubby little fingers.
Then he looked at the mother cat guarding him, with newly grown white fur.
A hint of determination flashed in his eyes.
He needs to become stronger faster!
