It’s no wonder that Tian Yuanfeng didn’t recognize that the speed-type mutant was one of his own at first. The main reason was that the population base of the Anhuai base was too large.
There are countless people with special abilities among them, and it is impossible for Tian Yuanfeng to know everyone.
I hadn't met the speed-type mutant on the way here, so I naturally didn't recognize him at first.
It was only when he spoke that Tian Yuanfeng realized that he was one of them.
The speed-type mutant who grabbed the energy lamp also obviously saw Tian Yuanfeng. He grinned at everyone:
"My awakened ability is speed-related. I need to be faster."
The speed-type mutant was thinking that if he could grab the energy lamp, he would go with everyone to the Anhuai base to pick up people.
There is strength in numbers, and it will be safer.
In fact, everyone had the same idea as him.
Let’s go back to Anhuai base together to pick someone up, so at least there’s someone to take care of them on the way.
Tian Yuanfeng nodded when he heard this:
"I understand. I understand."
"Without further delay, shall we set off to Anhuai Base to pick them up?"
One energy lamp can be used for five hours.
Tian Yuanfeng didn't believe that he could be so clumsy that he couldn't even grab an energy lamp in five hours!
After buying the energy lamps, the group of psychics who had fled from the Anhuai base to the Nanyang base were eager to return home. They couldn't stay there for even a quarter of an hour and just wanted to return to the Anhuai base as soon as possible to pick up their families.
So when Tian Yuanfeng suggested setting out immediately to pick people up, everyone agreed.
Soon, more than a hundred people with special abilities set out towards the Anhuai base.
…
…
About five hours later, an off-road vehicle stopped about fifty meters away from the Anhuai base.
The energy light located right at the front of the car is just within the range that can illuminate the gate of the Anhuai base.
Pei Linlang sat in the car and glanced at the base gate not far away, and unconsciously compared it with the Qingquan Base.
Although the city wall is quite high, it does not give her the same sense of security as the light shield of the Qingquan Base.
She only glanced at it and then looked away, with a hint of excitement in her tone:
"Brother, should we stop the car?"
Of course, this excitement was just because I thought that I could help Sister Lin Yu.
“No stop.”
Pei Yan paused and said meaningfully, "Linlang, don't say anything from now on. Just follow me and watch and learn carefully."
Pei Linlang wanted to help, and even wanted to act alone. Pei Yan would not keep his sister by his side under the banner of doing good for her.
Therefore, Pei Yan decided to keep her by his side and teach her by example for a period of time. How much she can understand depends on Pei Linlang's ability alone.
Pei Linlang understood Pei Yan's good intentions and nodded seriously:
"Brother, I understand."
Pei Yan didn't say anything until he drove the car about five meters away from the gate of Anhuai Base and stopped.
In fact, even if Pei Yan didn't stop the car, he would be stopped by the guards at the gate of the base.
Since the arrival of the polar night, the chaotic situation at the Anhuai base has not been effectively controlled due to the mixed quality of senior management.
The military forces stationed at the Anhuai base dispatched personnel to control the chaotic situation as soon as the polar night fell.
However, they were repeatedly obstructed by people from other forces, whose purpose was to prevent the military's voice from becoming louder and louder among the people.
Logically speaking, there is no need to worry with the power of the military, but the other people in power at the Anhuai base united together and fought for a long time, and only now have they managed to control the chaotic situation.
At this moment, the guards stationed at the gate of the Anhuai base are composed of personnel from various parties, playing a role of mutual checks and balances and mutual supervision.
Everyone has discovered that the darkness brought by the polar night will swallow up the light.
After trying various lighting solutions, they finally came up with the idea of using the fire-type mutant's abilities to ignite the crystal core, which could illuminate an area of about four or five meters around.
A first-level crystal core can only last for half an hour.
The burning time of the crystal core and the range it can illuminate depend on the level of the crystal core and the strength of the power cast by the psychic.
Lighting consumes too many crystal cores. Except for the most important checkpoints in the base, other places use ordinary torches for lighting.
Therefore, when the guards stationed at the gate of the Anhuai base saw from afar that the headlights of Pei Yan's off-road vehicle could illuminate a distance of dozens of meters, one can imagine the shock in their hearts.
Some people even began to covet off-road vehicles.
If an ordinary person doesn't have some connections, it may not be possible to get this "lucrative job" of guarding the base gate.
Normally, as long as you don't go too far, you can make some money from the survivors who join the base or the survivors who return from missions.
The military forces stationed at the Anhuai base do not allow such behavior, but they are constrained by other forces. As long as the other party does not go too far, basically everyone turns a blind eye.
Wang Jiehao's brother-in-law is a third-level power-type mutant. Usually, he wants to make money from ordinary people, and the survivors dare not speak out.
This also cultivated his increasingly unscrupulous character. As long as he didn't provoke anyone with superpowers, no matter what trouble he caused, his brother-in-law would help him settle it.
If the military forces stationed at the Anhuai base had not also sent personnel, he would have become even more unscrupulous.
So, when the SUV drove up to the checkpoint and stopped, Wang Jiehao pushed aside the others, strode over and knocked on the window, signaling the people in the car to get out for routine inspection.
This is a car!
And there’s gasoline!
Not to mention that the light emitted by this car can illuminate a distance of dozens of meters. This requires at least a third-level fire-type mutant to ignite a third-level crystal core to achieve this.
You can tell he's fat at first glance.
Wang Jiehao restrained the emotion in his eyes and acted as if doing something routine:
"Everyone in the car get out immediately."
No matter how well Wang Jiehao concealed it, Pei Linlang could sense the greed in his eyes.
For some reason, she felt excited.
She felt... probably, possibly, perhaps it had been a long time since she had seen someone seeking death?
Ah, no, this person hasn't had the chance to commit suicide yet.
If Pei Linlang could notice it, there was no way Pei Yan couldn't notice it.
He had heard from the group of psychics he brought back to the Nanyang base last time that if one wanted to enter the Anhuai base, one had to go through a "security check" first.
If you ignore the fleeting greed in Wang Jiehao's eyes, all this seems normal.
Pei Yan glanced at Wang Jiehao through the car window, his expression unclear.
Wang Jiehao knocked on the car window impatiently.
"What are you still dawdling about? Get out of the car now?"
"elder brother?"
Pei Linlang looked at Pei Yan, waiting for his instructions.
"get off."
