Chapter 271 Life-Saving Function
If the people at the base know the adults, things will be much easier.
They just waited calmly to be respectfully invited.
After a short while, a car stopped at the entrance of the base, and three or four people got out.
Because of the hot weather, the group was dressed in shorts and short-sleeved shirts, but judging from their energetic and rosy faces, they must be quite remarkable.
Led by the guards, they came to Ling Ran. The man at the front was not tall, about 1.7 meters, and looked to be around forty years old. He had a square face, looked serious when he wasn't smiling, but had a kind smile when he did.
He extended his hand to Ling Ran with a kind smile: "Your Majesty Ling Ran, is that right? I've heard so much about you. Welcome to Hope Base. I am Yan Songbai, the deputy manager of Hope Base."
Ling Ran didn't extend her hand, but Pei Yi, the representative next to her, extended his hand: "Hello, Deputy Manager Yan, I am Pei Yi, and this is our lady, Ling Ran."
Yan Songbai glanced at Ling Ran, then gestured for her to enter: "The accommodations have been prepared, please come in, sir."
As Ling Ran lifted her foot, a group of people entered the base.
Compared to the messy shantytowns built with wood and rags in other places, the survivors' homes at Hope Base each had a small house, about five or six square meters. Some had doors, some had curtains. They were built in rows, not tall, not big, and extremely neat. From a distance, someone who didn't know better might mistake them for grave mounds.
Even so, this was the best place Ling Ran and his companions had seen for survivors along their journey.
The house may be small, but at least it can keep out the wind and rain.
Apart from the shantytowns, most of the roads along the way were newly paved cement roads, and you could see bustling markets in the distance.
Further on, you'll see that there's actually a restaurant inside the base.
Hope Hotel.
There were two guards at the entrance, and people occasionally went in and out. The people who came and went were all well dressed, in good spirits, and had rosy complexions, so they were clearly in good condition.
Even when passing by the door, you can feel a chill.
Pei Xiu whispered, "They turned on the air conditioning."
Even without him saying it, everyone could feel it.
Upon hearing this, Yan Songbai smiled and said, "This is the only restaurant in our base. If you are interested, you can come and have a taste. Our base operates on a points system. If an external ability user does not have points, they can exchange crystal cores for points at the office."
As they walked, Yan Songbai introduced the various parts of the base, his tone filled with undisguised pride.
Soon, they arrived at a tall building. He introduced it, saying, "This tall building is where we hope the researchers at the base will work. The evolution fluid was developed here."
At the main entrance of the tall building, there were many armed forces and the checkpoints were very strict. People entering and leaving needed to go through several verifications.
Upon hearing about the evolution fluid, Pei Yi and the others couldn't help but secretly observe Yan Songbai's expression.
Hopefully, the base knows that they've stolen the evolution fluid business.
“We know about your base’s evolution fluid.” Pei Yi smiled casually, “But it’s not very effective; long-term use can have significant side effects.”
Yan Songbai's smile faded: "Mr. Pei also said it was for long-term use. How could a normal superhuman have so many crystal cores to consume for a long time? The evolution fluid is actually used to quickly replenish the body's energy in emergencies when going out on missions, thus achieving a life-saving effect."
