Chapter 64 Chapter 64 Si Ruxu's thick eyelashes lightly...
Si Ruxu's thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she whispered a yes.
The wind outside was so fierce that it made the windows creak. Si Qi and Si Ruxu huddled together, hugging each other for warmth. It seemed like this was the only way they could survive, relying on each other for survival.
Si Qi always lived in a dark cave during the extreme cold, and had no idea that there would be such bright moonlight even when it was snowing heavily.
That bit of gentle light poured down from the floor-to-ceiling window, passing over a shadow in the triangular area, and fell in front of the door of the room which could not be closed.
The person hugging each other in bed seemed to notice the faint light. She rose slightly, then quickly lay back down. The person in her arms' breathing had evened out, and the air was thick with sleep. She blinked a few times, then sank into the night.
It's a rare good sleep.
When she woke up the next day, she sent a message to Luo Fenghe, briefly telling him what she had experienced at the border. The extreme cold weather came too quickly, and many measures at the base were not well implemented. Luo Fenghe seemed unusually busy.
He simply asked Si Qi to have a good rest and said nothing more.
Si Qi accidentally saw the time on her bracelet and suddenly realized that she had been at the border for half a month. The bracelet was filled with missed calls from Si Ruxu.
So, when she answered Si Ruxu's first call, Si Ruxu had already heard the busy tone so many times.
Si Qi was wrapped in a very thick coat. Although she had repeatedly emphasized that she could not feel the extreme cold temperature now, Si Ruxu still forced her to put it on and told her that this was her own space, private property, and did not count as occupying public resources.
Behind him, the woman stuffed hot milk into Si Qi's arms. Si Qi subconsciously wanted to refuse, but his gaze retracted after meeting her amber eyes.
"Luo Fenghe seems to be very busy recently."
"Yeah. Those psychics from other bases dislike our base's measures and want to live in the core area."
"Why would they dislike it... Aren't people with special abilities more adaptable to extreme cold? Then they should be fine even if they stay outside for a short time."
"Because I was too comfortable in my original base."
The two chatted casually. Perhaps those people had good intentions in establishing the base, but from a higher position, their original good intentions gradually changed.
Si Qi lowered her eyes and looked at the milk in the cup. She could feel that the core of the storm seemed to have changed, moving from the edge to the center little by little, towards the base.
The houses in the base were strong enough to withstand the storm, but the temperature would still continue to drop. Those ordinary people, those precious high-level psychics...
Si Qi felt that there would be another chaos in order. When would those people realize that only by uniting as one and waiting for the end of the world to be completely over could they enjoy a more comfortable life?
After a few days of peace, Si Qi received a call from Luo Fenghe, who told her that the base’s staff could no longer stabilize those people with special abilities, and he hoped that the savior and the research institute could come forward.
Si Qi agreed.
She raised her leg and walked out, but she felt a pulling force from behind. Si Ruxu put a coat on her.
"Don't let others know that you have no perception of extreme cold." Si Ruxu said seriously, and Si Qi nodded.
"I see. Thank you."
"I've packed it too, it's perfect, let's go together."
Luo Feng had invited the Savior and the research institute. Without Si Luoheng, the institute could only be run by Si Ruxu. Si Qi nodded and teleported Si Ruxu outside the shelter.
The makeshift shelter was not perfect, even more shabby than the one where ordinary people lived nearby. Si Qi looked at a leaky spot nearby and thought, no wonder they were dissatisfied.
Just by being at the door, you could hear the shouting inside.
"You were the ones who sent us here. What kind of massacre is this? It's just an extreme cold snap. The shelter is so shabby, the beds are just a few wooden frames, and there are three people to a room."
"Look at what those ordinary people are doing supporting them. I just want a place for them to live. What's the problem? If you have the guts, just kick me out. Let's see if our base agrees."
"An idiot base breeds a bunch of idiots."
Si Qi stood at the door and looked over when the words were spoken.
He was a young man, seemingly in his early thirties, with a red tag on his chest that symbolized the type of base.
"Which base is he from?"
"The red brand base should be stronger."
"Is it stronger than Luo Fenghe's base?"
Si Ruxu nodded, "The one with the red sign is the most powerful base in the apocalypse."
Si Qi pursed his lips, and for the first time he felt a little disgusted with Luo Feng and the base's strength.
"However, Luo Fenghe's base takes good care of ordinary people, so the resources are not all tilted towards people with special abilities like the Red Base. It is normal for the development to be slow." Si Ruxu curled her lips and patiently explained the relationship to Si Qi from another perspective.
Si Qi nodded and looked at the man's arrogant and contemptuous face for a while. The people around him were afraid of the badge on his body and remained silent. No one spoke to him.
She still didn't give up and turned her head to look at Si Ruxu again.
"However, the research institute is more important than any other base." Si Ruxu added gently, as if seeing through Si Qi's thoughts.
Si Qi nodded, a soft and obedient smile on his lips.
If she doesn't do anything else afterwards, she will indeed appear to be particularly well-behaved.
Si Qi followed Si Ruxu in and attracted the attention of some people in the noisy crowd, including the arrogant man.
His narrow eyes narrowed, and when he saw them coming, his expression changed from anger to a hint of satisfaction: "Well, finally two big ones have come."
"Look at this environment. Does it look like it's for people with special abilities to live in?"
Si Qi looked around. In fact, the environment inside looked pretty good. The hall was not big, but it was clean and tidy, with all the necessary seats. It was a thousand times better than where she lived at that time.
"What do you think should be the place for people with special abilities to live?" Si Qi raised his eyes and asked him patiently.
"Heater, sofa, big TV, bathtub... Of course, your base isn't as wealthy as ours, so let's put that aside for now, but why do ordinary people live in bigger houses than us?"
Si Qi understood what he meant. In fact, they could live here, but the psychics who had been placed in the first position for a long time were not used to being suppressed by ordinary people.
"Because ordinary people are less able to withstand the cold than those with special abilities, in order to ensure their survival, we will arrange larger and warmer houses for them first."
"Besides, that area has always been Area A of our base, for ordinary people to live in. There's no need to make an exception just because you're here."
After hearing this, the man's face turned purple and his fists creaked.
He stared at Si Qi intently, as if he was watching a huge joke.
"What's the point of keeping ordinary people? Keeping a bunch of useless people without any fighting power is something only your base could come up with. So you will only be average for the rest of your lives."
Si Qi looked at him in confusion.
"Is it useless? Luo Feng and the base have always had the most abundant food supply. This is because they have many ordinary people working on the land, and the food they grow can provide food and drink for everyone."
"Furthermore, my friend, I think you should be aware that you are here to seek refuge. Do you really have to treat yourself as a superior?"
The word "refuge" weighed on the man's heart like a huge rock. His expression changed again and again. "Didn't your base hold a special meeting to beg for the merger of several bases? How did that make us refugees?"
"Huh, is that what your base taught you?"
Si Qi was puzzled. How could those people still have so much pride among them even though it was the end of the world, the massacre and the gods had come?
"Throw me out if you dare, do you dare?"
Si Qi: ...
Si Qi used his spatial ability and threw him out.
Si Ruxu looked at the person who suddenly disappeared, then looked at Si Qi with understanding: "Where did he go?"
Si Qi shook his head: "I don't know, it's random."
The faces of the people around him turned pale, but they remained silent. Only a fool would argue with Si Qi at this time. How could the base be in turmoil over a small mutant and the savior?
Luo Feng and the guards sent to guard the place looked embarrassed, and there was a hint of hesitation in their eyes when they looked at Si Qi. He only took a step forward when Si Qi's eyes fell on him.
"Their base is very powerful. It might be inappropriate for you to just throw him out like that."
Si Ruxu stepped forward and blocked Si Qi behind him. His eyes looked around before settling on the guard.
She curled her lips and said gently, "Do you think it's inappropriate for the institute to just throw someone out casually?"
graduate School.
There was complete silence all around.
In the end times, no institution holds greater importance than the Institute. With just one sentence, the Institute transformed Si Qi from a hated outcast into a savior.
It was also the research institute that gave everyone superpowers, told them how to use them, gradually revealed the secrets of the apocalypse, and gave humans hope of survival.
No one dared to confront the institute. At this moment, the institute's badge hanging faintly around Si Ruxu's waist represented everything.
The guard took a step back and said nothing more.
Killing the chicken to scare the monkey was very effective. Those people with special abilities, big and small, almost shrank into their own fields, only slightly sticking out half of their heads to imitate their figures.
The whole afternoon went smoothly, and the person who was thrown out could find himself back if he was lucky, or he would meet a team that went out to look for supplies and be brought back.
If you are unlucky, you will be buried in the snow, and your body will be completely dedicated to the land, becoming the nutrients here.
The cold wind was getting closer and closer to the center of the body. Si Qi looked at the sky which was gradually getting darker, but the image of the god's eyes that finally fell on her emerged in her mind.
What happens when you reach the center of the storm?

The author has something to say: I didn't want to change into my pajamas when I went out. It was over 30 degrees Celsius, and I put on a thick coat in the middle of the day. I went to a restaurant with no air conditioning or fans and had a hot pot. As expected, I got heatstroke again when I came back.

Anyone have any guesses as to why the gods changed their attitude?
