"Catch these bastards who dare to escape!"

The sticks were swung again and screams echoed in the night.

The patrol team at Xuanwu Base noticed the commotion and the team leader quickly rushed over.

He had a slender figure and agile movements. When he raised his hand, a strong wind suddenly blew up in the air.

"stop!"

Tu Rong's men were blown back by the wind and their faces changed drastically.

The squad leader looked at them coldly, his voice cold.

"This is the territory of Xuanwu Base. Do you dare to act wildly here? Have you asked the wind in my hand?"

His momentum shocked the whole audience.

"He's a B-rank wind-type esper!"

Tu Rong's men did not dare to act rashly and retreated angrily.

The survivors were brought into the base, and as soon as they stepped through the entrance, they were shocked by the scene before them.

Bright lights shone on the neat streets, automated transport vehicles shuttled back and forth, and the huge armored walls shone brightly under the lights.

The children were playing in the square, their laughter clear and their faces full of long-lost smiles.

A woman stood at the entrance, her hands covering her mouth, tears streaming down her face.

"Is this heaven?" she whispered, stumbling and nearly falling to her knees.

A survivor picked up a piece of vegetable leaf from the ground, trembling as if he had found a treasure.

"This is real food! It's not fake! No!"

The team leader stood aside and said with reverence.

"Everything in Xuanwu Base was brought by the Savior."

After entering the Xuanwu base, the survivors from Rose Fortress forgot to speak for a moment.

They stood on the main street of the base, and everything they saw made them feel like they had entered another world.

The neat streets sparkled under the lights, automated transport vehicles drove steadily, and the displays on the walls played announcements and warm reminders from the base.

Children ran by in groups, their laughter ringing and their faces flushed with health.

A woman trembled and pointed to the transport lane not far away where crystal cores were being transported.

"Those are... crystal cores, so many!?" Her voice trembled with an exclamation of disbelief.

A young man stood by the road, watching residents lining up to receive food not far away.

There was steam rising from the pot, and the aroma wafting from the smoke made his nose sore.

"Rice, and...meat? Is this real?"

An old man knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face, and his hands trembled as he touched the floor tiles under his feet.

"This is heaven, right?"

They originally thought that there would never be such a place in the end times, but the Xuanwu Base overturned their perception.

There was a cartoon portrait hanging on the bulletin board in front of the conference hall.

Under the portrait, her name is marked - Savior Gu Man.

"It was she who brought us food, survival, and hope!"

Base residents said proudly.

A young woman stared at the portrait, her eyes filled with awe and admiration.

"She is... like a god."

They crowded together and listened to the people from Xuanwu Base telling about Gu Man's deeds.

From the initial donation of food and clothes, to the delivery of clean water and sea water, and then to the delivery of resources... every story makes the survivors feel excited.

A survivor excitedly held the hands of the base residents and spoke with tears in his eyes.

"She is not human, she is God!"

To give away such precious food and water for free, who else could she be but God? Only God has such mercy!

"No, she is not a god, she is a savior! God would not be so generous, only a savior would be!"

One survivor refuted the claim.

Everyone nodded in agreement with his opinion.

But when they thought of their companions who were still suffering in Rose Fortress, their expressions became gloomy again.

"My mother is still being oppressed by Tu Rong. We can't abandon them."

"I want to rescue my sister. She is waiting for me to come back!"

"I can't abandon my child!"

*********

In the conference room, a new discussion quietly began.

In the conference room of Xuanwu Base, Song Lufeng, Shi Hai, Cheng Fang and other senior executives gathered together.

The survivors from Rose Fortress stood in the center, their eyes filled with anticipation.

An old man choked up and spoke.

"There are still hundreds of people in the Rose Fortress. They have no food to eat, no water to drink, and are suffering. Please, rescue them too!"

The young survivor looked up and spoke in a firm voice.

"We can't just watch them die."

The senior executives in the conference room looked at each other with complicated expressions on their faces.

Shi Hai smiled slightly and said while stroking his beard.

"This plan proposed by the Savior is really brilliant."

Cheng Fang nodded, with a hint of emotion in his voice.

"The charm of food is more effective than any persuasion. Who can resist rice and meat?"

Song Lufeng stood up, put his hands on the conference table, and his eyes were determined.

"Since they want to bring people here, we will welcome them."

He looked around and everyone at the meeting nodded.

Shi Hai said slowly.

"The savior's vision is for everyone to survive, and we should do our best to achieve it."

Cheng Fang added in a low voice.

"But we also have to be wary of Tu Rong. He won't let it go."

Song Lufeng smiled coldly, his eyes as sharp as torches.

"Xuanwu Base is not afraid of threats."

After the meeting, the survivors were allowed to remain at the base.

With excitement, they asked the residents of Xuanwu Base for more information.

"Do you eat such delicious food every day?" a young woman asked in disbelief as she looked at the steaming rice in the pot.

The resident in charge of distributing food smiled.

"We have enough food. The Savior has made it so that we don't have to worry about hunger anymore."

A child came forward and asked curiously.

"Why is there electricity here?"

Residents point to a nuclear reactor in the distance.

"That's the energy that the savior has sent us."

These answers completely shocked the survivors.

"It's really unbelievable!" muttered a middle-aged man.

A woman gently touched her son's head and whispered.

"It would be nice if we could live here forever."

But some people frowned.

"Tu Rong will not let us go. Rose Fortress is still under his control."

Some stayed, while others left one after another because they were worried about their loved ones.

Among these people, one of them sneaked into Tu Rong's room.

"Electricity, food, high-tech equipment... these are all real."

He whispered, shocked.

Tu Rong slammed the table, a greedy light flashing in his eyes.

"How can they be so rich?"

The man nodded and continued.

"Their weapons and defenses are also very advanced, as if they have never experienced the end of the world. They are too advanced..."

Tu Rong sneered, his eyes flashing with madness.

"Alien weapon... it's time to use it."

His men showed hesitation.

"My Lord, that thing is too dangerous. If we use it once, not only will it destroy the other party, but we might also..."

Tu Rong suddenly raised his head, his eyes as sharp as knives.

"Shut up! You have no right to speak in this fortress!"

Everyone was silent and dared not say anything to him.

They have seen his cruelty and ruthlessness. He is just a madman!

Tu Rong walked to a secret basement and pushed open the heavy metal door.

Under the dim light, a weapon emitting a strange glow stood quietly.

Its core was made of unknown materials, with strange runes floating on its surface, emitting an ominous aura. Tu Rong stood in front of it with a devilish smile on his face.

"Soul Harvest... Xuanwu Base, no matter how strong you are, you can't stop it."

The men whispered behind him.

"Sir, this thing will not only harvest the souls of the enemy, but also devour our people. Are you sure..."

Tu Rong ignored him, he reached out and pressed the starter.

The machine emitted a low hum, runes began to flash, and a suffocating sense of oppression filled the air.

Tu Rong turned around with a cold look.

"It doesn't matter. Only the weak are afraid of sacrifice."

The light of the machine gradually became more intense, and an ominous feeling enveloped the entire Rose Fortress.
