Overnight, the senior management of the Xianfeng base was completely replaced.
Li Qing became the leader of the base, and Miao Jinyan, Liu Shuqin, Xiao Xu and Hong Ling all became senior leaders, each in charge of a key department. They also completely disbanded the leadership team that was once led by Sun Lijun and Wu Yihang and delegated them to other departments.
At Yan Yu's suggestion, Li Qing appointed the captains of nearly ten teams as high-level leaders at the same time, in order to win them over and to check and balance each other.
As for Yan Yu, she rejected the recommendation to be the top leader without hesitation, and told Li Qing and the other four that she would leave in three days. Even though they were reluctant to let her go, no one questioned Yan Yu's decision.
From the first day they recognized Yan Yu as their leader, they had a vague feeling that Yan Yu did not belong to this world and that she would leave sooner or later, but they all tacitly never mentioned it.
Liu Shuqin tugged at Yan Yu's sleeve, reluctantly saying, "Boss, where are you going? Why don't you take me with you?"
Yan Yu is both a teacher and a friend to them. He has helped them a lot. He is strong and has a good personality. The most important thing is that he never hides anything from his subordinates. He is the best leader candidate to follow. Not only Liu Shuqin is reluctant to let him go, but the other members of the Egret Team are also reluctant to let him go.
Hearing Liu Shuqin's words, Hong Ling, Xiao Xu, and the others stole glances at Yan Yu, anticipating her response. Even Li Qing and Miao Jinyan, who were naturally calmer, pricked up their ears.
Seeing this, Yan Yu rubbed Liu Shuqin's head and said, "I want to take you with me, but now I am also controlled by others and many things are beyond my control."
If the problem of the infinite survival game is not solved, she will never be able to obtain the freedom she wants.
Even though her strength has skyrocketed and her upgrade speed is much faster than other players, there are always people who are better than you. She had paid to watch the live broadcast of the last Grand Prix, especially the seeded players and teams that won the championship. Each of them was extremely powerful, which made her feel a great sense of crisis.
It is said that these high-level players participating in the competition are not the strongest in the game, and they are not even found on the overall rankings. It can be seen that she still has a long way to go.
However, Yan Yu originally wanted to be a lone wolf. Due to her personality and the experience of being betrayed by many people in the past, it was difficult for her to trust others.
But after spending these days with Li Qing and the others, she suddenly felt that having some like-minded teammates who could fight side by side was not a bad feeling. At least they filled some of her emotional gaps.
Perhaps, she could also start trying to build her own power in the player city.
The guild order and city lord order snatched from Guizhi can be used after this copy is over.
Anyway, with her current strength, if she really encounters a traitor, the worst that can happen is that she kills him. Why should she throw the baby out with the bathwater?
Yan Yu did not explain the infinite survival game to Li Qing and the others, as saying too much would only add to their troubles.
Liu Shuqin raised her head slightly, took a deep breath, suppressed the redness spreading from the corners of her eyes, and then pretended to be cheerful and said, "In that case, I have to put my culinary skills to good use these few days to completely conquer your stomach and make sure you won't forget me no matter where you go!"
From suppressing the rebels to taking over the leadership of the base, they were busy all day and didn't even have time to eat lunch.
Li Qing, Miao Jinyan and others suppressed their feelings of loss, forced themselves to smile and discussed what to eat in the evening, and at the same time celebrated their seizure of control of the base.
Yan Yu: "Let's have hot pot. Didn't Hong Ling get some new vegetable seeds? I also have a mutant cow in my space. I can cut some meat slices, tripe, and tripe to make hot pot."
The mutant cow was also found in Guizhi's storage ring. It was a very complete cow. The meat looked much firmer and more chewy than that of ordinary cows, and could be eaten by them for a long time.
Liu Shuqin: "Okay, then I'll clean up the mutant cow, fry a few steaks, stew a pot of tomato brisket, and prepare some drinks, and we'll be done."
Fortunately, the kitchen is big enough, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate the mutant cow weighing over a thousand pounds.
After Hongling started growing leafy green vegetables, he started growing tomatoes. Finally, he specially started growing a cherry tree and picked a large basin full of purple-red cherries as after-meal fruit.
The six people each did their job and quickly set up the hot pot. They didn't even need an induction cooker, as Miao Jinyan controlled the fire manually.
They prepared a double-boiled hotpot, one with tomato soup base and the other with spicy beef oil base. The table was filled with various vegetables, fruits, drinks, homemade dipping sauces, cold dishes, stir-fried beef, seared steak, tomato stewed beef brisket, etc.
Yan Yu raised her drink and said, "Today, we are celebrating your becoming senior executives of the Xianfeng Base with drinks instead of alcohol. I hope that you will stay true to your original aspirations and stay united forever. Go and do what you want to do, and remember, I will always support you silently."
Li Qing and the others felt a little sad in their eyes and had mixed feelings in their hearts. They could only raise their drinks and clink glasses together, finishing the drinks in the cups together to cover up their sour emotions.
Seeing that everyone was slow to pick up their chopsticks, Yan Yu took the initiative to say, "Eat, why are you still standing there?" After saying that, she took the lead and put a piece of tripe into the spicy pot, swish it up and down, and then put it in her mouth to chew a few times.
"Well, don't tell me, it tastes really good, you guys should try it."
Li Qing picked up the serving chopsticks and put some beef slices into the pot: "Everyone, eat quickly. People are made of iron and rice is made of steel. Eat your fill first and then consider other things."
However, this dinner was destined to be a restless one. Before Li Qing could finish her words, a sharp alarm shattered the tranquility of the entire base. Immediately afterwards, a patrolman's heavy-breathing cry was heard over the radio: "Oh no! It's a zombie wave!"
A single stone caused a thousand ripples, and the entire base suddenly fell into panic and anxiety.
"What? It's a zombie wave! Oh my god, are we doomed?"
"Wow, the base I was at before was destroyed by a zombie tide. If I hadn't run fast, I would have died long ago. Now it's Xianfeng Base's turn again. Wow, what a terrible luck I have."
"There were signs of the zombie wave before, why is it so sudden this time? Are we going to be wiped out tonight?"
Everyone in the base was in a panic. Yan Yu threw down her chopsticks and said, "Li Qing, organize all the teams and special abilities to fight immediately. Liu Shuqin, organize the ordinary people to take charge of the logistics. Don't panic. Hong Ling, go to the armory and quickly distribute weapons to the guards and patrols. Have them fire a few waves of long-range artillery first to try to deplete the low-level zombies."
"Xiao Xu, go notify the power station to generate power at full capacity. Shut off all civilian electricity within the base and fully charge the three large power grids outside. Miao Jinyan, come with me to the city wall to check the situation."
After assigning the tasks one by one, Yan Yu took Miao Jinyan and headed straight for the city wall without looking back.
As the only level VI mutant in the base, Miao Jinyan's presence can at least calm some people's hearts.
After successfully taking power, Li Qing broadcast the information and ranks of all senior leaders throughout the station as a means of appeasing the people.
As expected, the guards who were originally a little panicked on the city wall all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Miao Jinyan appear.
Tides of zombies rushed in from all directions of the base like a tide. The visibility was poor at night, and they were moving very fast, so it was no wonder that there was no early warning.
Yan Yu narrowed her eyes. She wondered if these zombies had deliberately chosen to attack at night, but the way they moved quickly and with a clear goal in mind made her almost certain that they were attacking the base in an organized and disciplined manner. There must be a being similar to the Zombie King in there.
There were at least a million zombie hordes. The three electric fences surrounding the base emitted dazzling light in the dark, slightly slowing down their movement.
However, these electric nets can stop low-level level II zombies, but cannot stop superpowered zombies above level III.
In less than ten minutes, the zombies with special abilities had torn big holes in the electric fence. The outermost layer of the electric fence flickered a few times and then fell into darkness.
In the following time, the middle layer and the innermost power grid were destroyed one after another, and the level II zombie army directly arrived at the city.
Before this, those level III, IV, and V zombies with special abilities had already attacked the city gate, and the special abilities people were divided into groups to fight against them.
As senior executives, the five members of the Egret Team naturally charged ahead, and Yan Yu followed closely behind them, protecting and supporting them.
Her pair of crimson swords danced so hard that afterimages were almost left behind. Crystal cores were spread out layer upon layer under her feet, but she had no time to pick them up.

…
The zombies and human superpowers entered a stage of all-out melee, with the roar of artillery fire, the interplay of various colors of light when superpowers were exerted, roars and screams filling the battlefield, and the only smell that could be smelled was the thick smell of gunpowder, blood, and stench, which made people feel nauseous.
The two forces entangled with each other in the darkness, and the ears were filled with screams and the rumbling sounds of the fierce collision of supernatural powers, and neither side gave in.
Because they know that taking a step back means destruction.
The psychics outside the city tried their best to stimulate their psychic powers until they were exhausted. Then they immediately switched places with the people behind them and relied on meditation or attracting crystal cores to restore their mental strength.
Although the ordinary people in the city were so scared that their legs went weak, they still obeyed the orders from their superiors, provided logistical support, and transported boxes of ammunition and supplies to the city walls.
Occasionally, high-level zombies would break through the blockade, fly into the city and kill people wantonly, but they would be quickly surrounded and strangled by patrolling psychics.
The people of the entire base are unprecedentedly united.

After an unknown amount of time, Yan Yu killed another Level V zombie, then quickly took out a few energy supplements from the warehouse and gulped them down.
The battle lasted too long and consumed too much mental energy. Even Yan Yu was a little overwhelmed, let alone other psychics.
Looking out, the zombie horde outside seemed endless, filling the air with despair, their vision darkening, their knees weakening. Especially after countless psychics were mercilessly torn apart, their blood spilling across half the city wall, everyone's morale plummeted to the bottom.
Almost everyone inside and outside the base showed signs of fatigue and numbness, and negative emotions spread. Many ordinary people even hugged their loved ones and children and cried loudly. If this continues, the destruction of the base is probably a matter of time!
