Chapter 69 Enter
The two cars did not follow the route they took last time into the city.
In some places, the snow was so deep that many buildings collapsed and blocked the entire road.
When they were almost near Central International, a group of zombies came from nowhere and blocked their way.
These are all zombies above level three. Each of them is agile and has a clear goal. Some of them can even jump onto Mo Fei and his friends' car.
Fortunately, there are no the most dangerous level 4 zombies among them.
Mo Fei was just hesitating whether to activate the space law when he saw two tentacles of Mo Jianian stretched out. One of them tightly wrapped around the zombie's hands and feet, and the other one went straight through the zombie's brain and rolled out a crystal core from it.
As a level 3 psychic versus a level 3 zombie, Mo Jianian has already crushed the zombie with one strike, not giving the zombie any chance to fight back.
"Brother is awesome." Mo Jiayue had already turned into a fire bear but he still did not forget to applaud Mo Jianian.
Next to Murphy's SUV, a giant bear about 1.8 meters tall stood there. The temperature was frighteningly high, and many zombies were burned to ashes by the flames from the fire bear's fists before they could get close to it.
The crystal core fell to the ground in ashes.
In the other side of the car, Lin Jiye sat motionless with his eyes closed. He was using his conscious hand to reach deep into Mo Jiayue's sea of consciousness to conduct a battle and comfort her.
The blue vines blocked the car window on the side of Lin Jiye to protect him.
Lin Jiyuan and Peng Yuan worked together, accurately shooting countless electric-charged metal arrows at the heads of the surrounding zombies. The scene was more beautiful than fireworks.
Because the team's fighting power was too strong, these hundreds of zombies were wiped out in a short time. After collecting the crystal cores, they continued on their way.
"The dog is not dead yet." Mo Fei said in surprise after parking the car.
She saw the bull terrier running out of the community's property building, squatting beside a snow-covered flower bed, looking at Mo Fei and Lin Jiyuan's two cars from a distance.
Compared to the last time I saw him, this dog is fatter than skinny, and looks energetic. I guess all the zombies wandering around the neighborhood were eaten by this dog.
"Mom, what kind of dog is this?" Mo Jiayue asked excitedly, pointing at the dog. Maybe it was because she could transform into a fire bear, but now she felt close to powerful large animals.
"A mutant bull terrier. It was here the last time we were here. It didn't attack us, so leave it alone for now."
Seeing that it had no intention of attacking, Mo Fei took the children and followed Lin Jiyuan and others into the elevator.
After she left, the mutant bull terrier walked to where she had been standing and sniffed hard, making a rumbling sound in his throat. He looked unusually excited.
Even after entering Lin Jiyuan's house, Mo Jiayue was still asking Mo Fei: "Mom, can we get a dog?"
Mo Fei shook his head for the thirteenth time. Mo Jianian said beside him, "Haven't you heard the proverb, you can't have both a dog and a bear?"
"Is there such a strange word? Why haven't I heard of it? Are you lying to me?" Mo Jiayue wondered.
"Let's clean it up." Lin Jiyuan said to his younger brothers, while he used his special powers to control the circuit at the entrance, continuously infusing it with lights.
In an instant, the chandeliers and floor lamps in the large flat lit up, emitting a hazy light like moonlight.
They were busy cleaning up the kitchen first.
The water pipes were completely frozen and no water came out.
Fortunately, with Lin Jiyuan here, there is no need to worry about electricity problems, and with Mo Fei here, there is no need to worry about water problems.
Lin Jiye secretly said proudly: "Brother and sister-in-law are really essential candidates for traveling."
"We should be back the day after tomorrow if we are quick. Let's go in and check the situation tonight and find someone tomorrow. I'll leave these water and food for you. It's enough for five days for the five of you. When you eat, just microwave it on high for five minutes. If the electricity is not enough, let Jiayue light the stove here. You can use it to keep warm and heat up the food."
Mo Fei put a lot of food in the kitchen, including stir-fried dishes, stewed dishes, pickled vegetables, and some instant food. In addition, there was an old-fashioned stove with fuel at the bottom and a pot on top for boiling water and cooking.
Of course, she did not forget to leave behind two large water storage barrels, which were filled with the space water she took out.
"And this milk, Jianian, remember to take your sister to drink a bottle every day." Mo Fei had a lot of instructions for the two children.
Jianian and Jiayue's eyes flickered. They grabbed Mo Fei's arm and said in unison, "Mom, take us with you."
On the other side, Lin Jiyuan also explained expressionlessly:
"Stay at home and don't run around. Stay alive and wait for help."
Simple and crude.
Lin Jiye, Peng Yuan, and Lan Chengyin surrounded Lin Jiyuan and said in unison: "Brother, take us with you."
The three of them deliberately picked some of it up and shouted as corny as they could.
Lin Jiyuan: "..."
Sometimes he couldn't help but want to strike someone with electricity.
Mo Fei couldn't help laughing.
Even if they acted like a spoiled brat, Mo Fei and Lin Jiyuan still followed the original plan and went to the entrance of the base that Shen Mianmian mentioned.
The place was hidden and the area nearby was covered with ice and snow. If we didn't know the location in advance, we wouldn't be able to find it even if we were blind.
"Please park the car here." Mo Fei said.
After getting out of the car, the two men stored the car in a hidden space and then walked towards the entrance of the base.
"A new face?"
The person on duty at the base entrance looked Mo Fei and Lin Jiyuan up and down.
Lin Jiyuan said nothing.
Mo Fei nodded and continued, "Yes. We just heard that there is a survivor base here, so we killed a lot of zombies along the way before rushing here."
The four men raised their eyebrows and looked at Mo Fei a few more times.
One of the middle-aged men with a beard asked in a rough voice:
"What is a superpower? What level is it?"
Mo Fei raised his head slightly: "I don't have any special abilities. But my brother does."
Lin Jiyuan cooperated by raising his other hand and gathering a ball of lightning in his hand:
"Electricity ability, level 4."
"Is this true?" Someone widened his eyes, then looked disdainful, thinking that Lin Jiyuan was bragging.
This is the first line of defense at the entrance of the base, and those guarding the gate are just psychics who are less than level 2.
Mainly responsible for registering people entering and leaving the company every day and recording their physical condition.
Level 4 psychics are rare in the base. They are all important figures that they can never meet, and there is no need for them to register here.
So when someone here suddenly said that he was a level 4 mutant, they were surprised at first, and then they couldn't help laughing.
"A level 4 superpower? A level 4 superpower can only have an electric ball? You two don't look alike. I don't think you are brother and sister, but boyfriend and girlfriend. Brother, your girlfriend doesn't have superpowers. We can understand that you want to show off in front of her. We will believe you if you say you are a level 3 superpower. You may not know that the level of superpowers is not what you say. There is an office 500 meters ahead after our door. There are people in it to help you measure your superpower level."
A man with triangular eyes and black gloves smiled teasingly.
Lin Jiyuan didn't say anything, as if he didn't hear anything at all.
His attitude was somewhat arrogant, causing the people on duty to curl their lips.
If the base didn't have a rule that all survivors who came to seek refuge should be accepted and not rejected for any reason, they would definitely find a reason to prevent Lin Jiyuan from entering.
Mo Fei didn't want to cause any trouble here, so he immediately stuffed four D-level crystal cores in:
"Thank you for your hard work on duty, brothers. This is our first time here and we don't know many rules yet. Please take care of us."
The bearded man took the crystal core and his tone became better:
"Alright. You guys have nothing better to do than to talk so much. You're making things difficult for the siblings. Come here and fill out the forms. They're just some basic information. Do you have any luggage? When you get to the front, your luggage will be checked, just like when you go through security on a train. You can't bring any hazardous chemicals. You can bring some daily necessities, clothes, and food."
Lin Jiyuan went to the table to fill out the form, while Mo Fei continued to talk to the bearded man:
"My brother and I were trapped in the Lotus Community before, and we survived thanks to my brother's special abilities. We've had less and less food lately, and now we're starving so we have no choice but to come out. We met someone outside, and heard that there's a base here that can take us in, so my brother brought me here at the risk of his life."
Mo Fei lied without hesitation. She didn't want to give food to these people, but these low-level crystal cores didn't matter.
As she spoke, she unzipped her and Lin Jiyuan's backpacks.
Inside were some clothes for each of them, a flashlight, and a mineral water bottle half-filled with snow for drinking. Nothing else.
Anyway, the real good stuff is all kept in Mo Fei's space, hidden away without a trace.
Seeing that there was really nothing to eat, the bearded man looked away in disappointment and waved his hand: "After he fills out the form, you two can leave. Make two copies. One for you to take with you and hand in to the next office, and one for us to keep as a record."
Mo Fei asked curiously: "Don't you need to check if we are injured? What if we are bitten by zombies and mutate?"
Several people laughed. The bearded man also laughed: "You have read too many zombie novels. There are people from the Taoist Association in our base. They have pasted talismans on this door. If you go in through this door, as long as you are scratched by zombies, this door can detect it."
"Is it so magical? Are you selling this talisman?" Mo Fei asked sincerely.
This talisman is a good thing. Although no one in the town has been scratched by a zombie, if one happens, this talisman can detect it immediately and isolate the person.
Among the few people, only the bearded man said, "When you go in, there is an exchange inside. Go there to get whatever you want."
Mo Fei nodded repeatedly.
In short, with Mo Fei's antics, she and Lin Jiyuan not only successfully passed the first door that Mianmian mentioned, but also used two extra crystal cores to get a simple base survival manual.
After they left, the bearded man picked up the registration form left by Lin Jiyuan.
In the column for his ability level, there were two powerful words written - Level 4.
The bearded man already said there was a supernatural power testing room in the back, but this guy still dared to fill it out like this.
"Is it really level 4?" The bearded man smacked his lips.
If it is really level 4, then he will be one of the big names in the future.
"Fatty, I didn't speak too loudly just now, did I?"
The bearded man kicked his companion next to him.
He was glad that he hadn't said anything excessive just now, and even kindly gave them a few words of advice. If this Lin Jiyuan was really a level 4 psychic, then he had to build a good relationship with him.
In the past, I couldn’t find a way to communicate with these level 4 psychics, but now there is a ready-made one in front of me.
"Fatty, please keep an eye on it for me. I'm going to the bathroom."
The bearded man walked inside, holding his stomach.
"There's a simple map drawn on this manual. You see, we are here. In front is the ability testing room, and further ahead is the management office. The exchange we are going to is here."
Mo Fei said as he looked at the map.
Lin Jiyuan was also watching and nodding.
Mo Fei felt that the person who drew this map might be an expert in making strategy guides.
Not only the distance between each location is standardized, but also the functions and opening hours.
Turning over the map page, there is a brief introduction to the Bai family, the founder of the base.
The current head of the Bai family is named Bai Mingxu. He is very young, less than 40 years old.
Next are the precautions related to the base.
"There are also curfews. During the extreme cold, the curfew is from 10pm to 6am, and no one is allowed to go out or enter during this time."
When Mo Fei saw this, the two had already walked into the supernatural power testing room.
"Go in, I'll wait for you outside." Mo Fei shrugged.
The staff then led Lin Jiyuan in.
Mo Fei was wandering around bored.
She was now in the outer passage of the air-raid shelter. There were grooves carved on the rock walls on all four sides, and there was a small light every ten meters or so. It was not very bright, but not dim either.
It was very quiet around, and there was basically no sound. Even from the testing room separated by a door, there was no sound coming from it.
Mo Fei couldn't stand the silence, so he couldn't help but walk a few steps forward.
She hadn't taken a few steps when she heard a slightly surprised voice behind her.
"Is it you?"
Mo Fei turned around and raised his eyebrows: "Bai Qi?"
The person in front of her was Bai Qi, whom she had met in the mall before.
In one hand he held a halberd and in the other he carried a heavy bag.
Mo Fei frowned, he saved her life and she gave him a meal, but he concealed his special ability and tried to control her mind.
Thinking of this, Mo Fei became alert.
I can't help but associate Bai Qi's surname with the Bai family of the base.
"Why are you here?" They both asked almost in unison.
Bai Qi answered first, his smile was as gentle as the last time they met:
"It snowed so hard a few days ago that the roof of the bookstore collapsed. I've known for a long time that there is a base here, but I don't like being constrained. This time the roof collapsed, so I had to move here. I go to the bookstore every day now to move some important books here. This is my third trip today. I almost had a quarrel with them outside just now. They said that I went out and came back too often, affecting their work."
Mo Fei took a glance and saw that there were indeed books in the bag.
Bai Qi might be a bookstore owner, but that did not conflict with her suspicion that Bai Qi was a member of the Bai family.
What's more, Bai Qi showed up just when she and Lin Jiyuan arrived here. This was too much of a coincidence.
She just nodded and said casually:
"My friend and I have something to deal with, so we want to take shelter here. I don't know how long we'll stay."
"Is that so? Then I'll leave first. I won't bother you anymore. I live on the second floor of unit 2, building 13 in the resettlement area. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me. I came here a few days earlier than you, so I have some experience."
Bai Qi said goodbye to Mo Fei with a smile, as if he didn't notice Mo Fei's perfunctory excuse.
Mo Fei waved her hand quickly. She had no idea about Bai Qi's background, and she didn't even want to talk to him, fearing that he would mentally control her at any time.
She only wanted to invite the Level 4 Healer back with Lin Jiyuan this time, and didn't want to get involved. But Bai Qi showed up again, which was really a variable.
Bai Qi took two steps and then walked back, his expression very sincere:
"There is one thing I want to apologize to you for."
"Ah?" Mo Fei took two steps back, putting some distance between them.
Bai Qi said, "I have been relying on this halberd passed down from my family to survive. I am a rather introverted person, my parents died early, and I have no friends, so I thought I had no superpowers. But a few days ago, I came here and entered the superpower testing room, and I found out that I am actually a psychic. The tester said that because I didn't know I had superpowers, I sometimes unconsciously released my mental power. Once I meet someone with a lower level of superpowers than me, or someone without superpowers, my mental power can easily make them lost. When I saw you just now, I thought of the last time we met. Maybe I have already awakened and released my mental power to you inadvertently. If so, I apologize to you. Please forgive me."
His voice was steady and gentle, echoing in the dim air-raid shelter passage.
Anyone who hears this will feel that this is a very polite and gentle person.
Mo Fei couldn't help but feel a little surprised. She watched Bai Qi nod and leave, and wondered if she was really judging others by her own standards?
When a person thinks he has misunderstood another person, he will suddenly remember all the good things about that person.
Mo Fei remembered how Bai Qi saved her and how he gave the A-level crystal core to her.
He didn't even know he had space. He only knew he had a defense mechanism of twenty square meters. What could he want from her?
Just as Mo Fei was thinking about it, he saw Lin Jiyuan push open the door and come out.
With an attentive smile on his face, the staff member gave Lin Jiyuan a plate made of unknown metal. On the plate was engraved a huge capital "肆" and a lightning symbol below, representing the type and level of Lin Jiyuan's supernatural power.
"Will your sister not take a test? It's free?" the staff member asked with a smile, pointing at Mo Fei. "Everyone who comes to our base for the first time will come here to take a test. What if you have superpowers but haven't discovered them? Many people don't know how to use their superpowers, so they think they don't have them."
Mo Fei and Lin Jiyuan shook their heads at the same time and walked away.
Mo Fei wouldn't be stupid enough to go there to test it.
Although her personal space was brought by the iron pot, and it is not known whether it can be considered as a personal superpower, it would still be troublesome if it was detected by the inspector.
The bearded man arrived just in time, catching up with Mo Fei and Lin Jiyuan.
He had sharp eyes and just before Lin Jiyuan threw the sign into his backpack, he saw the word "肆".
"Wait for me, both of you!" he shouted.
