Chapter 367
As the connections between the various bases were restored, the reputation of the Hope Base spread even more widely. The bases that received the formula all prepared antidotes and put them into use. The results were very significant, greatly reducing casualties among frontline combatants and protecting survivors to the greatest extent.
In addition to the antidote, the primary recovery agent was also quite famous, which led bases from far and near to send delegations to the Hope Base to negotiate transactions. Because of the precedents of the S City and H City bases, especially the Imperial Capital Base, other bases honestly followed the rules of the Hope Base and paid the corresponding price in exchange for the antidote formula.
Although the end of the world is dangerous, there are also people who are confident of their strong strength and love adventure. They organize caravans to travel between various bases. The primary recovery agent from the Hope Base is an item that these caravans like very much. Every time they come to the Hope Base, they will buy as many as possible, and then transport it to other bases to sell at a high price. Like food, recovery agents are not difficult to sell, and they take up a small area, so they are the most cost-effective business.
"Brother Han, is the Hope Base ahead?" A young girl in the car asked curiously, looking at the empty area ahead and the tall city walls in the distance.
Another young man in the car whistled and said, "Yes, this is the Hope Base that is now famous. How is it? Does it disappoint you?"
The young girl smiled and said, "It's much cleaner and more spacious outside than other bases. It's obvious that there aren't many zombies near here. I hope the base will regularly clear out the zombies outside."
"Haha, there's no need for people in the base to clean up regularly. Just hope that the alien beast army in the base will come out to patrol regularly, and no zombies will appear."
The girl was surprised and asked, "I hope the alien beast army in the base is so powerful? Are they all controlled by one person?"
Brother Han thought about it and said, "From the initial 20 or 30, now there are more than 100. I have never heard of them being controlled by others." As he was speaking, a dark shadow loomed over the sky. He looked up and shouted, "Look at the sky, those birds in the sky belong to the alien beast army."
When people heading to the Hope Base saw the scene above, many of their vehicles stopped and looked up. After the flock of birds flew far away, they continued driving towards the Hope Base with a sense of unfulfilled desire. The young girl and Brother Han did the same. No other base had such a spectacle.
In just three years, the Hope Base has developed from a small or medium-sized base into a large base. The tall city wall that people who come here today see is actually the third city wall built by the Hope Base. The number of survivors it accommodates has reached hundreds of thousands, and there are still survivors coming to seek refuge.
When these people passed the inspection and entered the base, they saw neat streets and houses, without the huts that can be seen everywhere in most other bases. When they came here, it seemed as if the scene of being chased by zombies outside belonged to another world.
The man surnamed Han and his team found a hotel to stay in. Now the hotel business at the Hope Base is very good and is often full.
The man surnamed Han greeted the others and went out for a walk alone without asking anyone to accompany him. No one in the team was worried about any accidents happening in the base, because the team surnamed Han was following was not the first time to come to the Hope Base. Even the security in the imperial capital was probably not as good as that in the Hope Base.
He took a walk outside and then went to the inner city. After making a phone call, someone came out to take him in and brought him to Ling Shaoyang.
"Cousin, every time I come here, I find that there are significant changes. I just saw a black eagle, and it seems to be bigger than last time."
Ling Shaoyang also had a headache when he saw this guy: "Han Ming, if you like it here, just stay. I'll arrange a job for you. If you run around outside, won't your family worry about you?"
Yes, the man surnamed Han who came here was Ling Shaoyang's cousin, who came from the imperial capital. In fact, Ling Shaoyang and him were not very familiar with each other before, but because the end of the world has come, Han Ming knew about the shocking things that his cousin Ling Shaoyang had done, and he could not suppress his admiration for him, so he accepted the mission of running to the Hope Base.
Han Ming said casually: "I don't want to stay in one place forever. The team I'm in now is pretty good. Anyway, they don't know the relationship between my cousin and me, so there's nothing to be afraid of. They're used to it at home. By the way, cousin, this is what they asked me to bring to you."
Han Ming casually took out a chip and threw it to Ling Shaoyang. His trip was not in vain, as he also served as a messenger, delivering messages to Ling Shaoyang on behalf of the Ling family in the imperial capital. So even though Ling Shaoyang had not returned to the imperial capital for three years, his contact with the Ling family in the imperial capital had not decreased but increased, and their relationship was even closer than before.
Ling Shaoyang took it and said, "Thank you. If you need anything, just let me know."
"Really? Then let me meet my sister-in-law." Han Ming said with a grin.
Ling Shaoyang looked at him speechlessly, then stood up and said, "Okay, come with me. Yuan Jing will be home for dinner today."
"Then I'm lucky." Han Ming followed happily.
Now the base is getting bigger and bigger, but Ling Shaoyang has more free time than before, because he has handed over all the matters to the subordinates. He and Yuan Jing just need to have a deterrent effect, so he still has time to run home to cook and wait for Yuan Jing to come back to eat.
It was not the first time that Han Ming had seen him, but he was amazed every time he saw him. Now even people in the imperial capital were full of praise when they mentioned Ling Shaoyang. In their words, Ling Shaoyang was strong, and should be cold, arrogant and domineering. But who could have thought that he would cook in the kitchen when he returned home? His virtuous appearance made him really want to take a picture of him and bring one back to everyone in the imperial capital.
But he only dared to think about it, because he knew very well that this virtuous side of her was only shown in front of her sister-in-law. She was indeed cold and ruthless towards others, and even his cousin would not show any mercy, so he could only feel regret in his heart.
Just as the dishes on the table were placed, the sound of the door opening was heard outside. Needless to say, Yuan Jing, the other owner of the villa, had returned. Ling Shaoyang washed his hands and came out to greet him.
The two hugged each other at the door, and then Yuan Jing raised his hand and greeted Han Ming: "Han Ming, you are here, why didn't you tell us earlier?"
Ling Shaoyang said: "You can say whatever you want to say. There is no need to prepare anything specially for him. He will just run around outside all day long. If something happens, he will have no place to cry."
Yuan Jing smiled. He had a good impression of Ling Shaoyang's cousin. He said, "It just so happens that I have something to give to Han Ming this time. This way, he will be more protected if he encounters any problems on the road."
Han Ming was happy. Everything his cousin's wife brought out was good. "What is it? A newly developed weapon?"
"Yes, it's a crystal energy gun." Yuan Jing flipped his hand and took out a gun with a cold texture from the space. Han Ming immediately came over to see how to use the gun. Since it is called a crystal energy gun, it must use a crystal core. In fact, the concept of crystal energy gun had already been proposed by people in various bases, but the effect of its production was not very ideal.
Yuan Jing demonstrated it to Han Ming and then threw the crystal energy gun in his hand to him. Han Ming played with it over and over again. It was not as heavy as he thought, but since Yuan Jing gave it to him, the power of the gun must be good.
There was a groove on the gun for placing crystal cores. Han Ming asked casually, "What is the highest level of crystal core that can be placed?"
"This one can hold level 4 or 5 crystal cores without any problem."
Han Ming took a breath and continued to ask, "Then it's okay to kill level 4 or 5 zombie monsters?"
"Of course, otherwise this gun won't be able to protect you."
Han Ming was even happier now, and he liked the crystal energy gun in his hand even more. He wanted to run out of the base immediately to try it out, but seeing that his cousin and his wife had already sat down and were preparing to eat, he quickly put away the crystal energy gun and went over.
In addition to delivering the letter to Ling Shaoyang, Han Ming also told them about the situation in the imperial capital during dinner. Communication nowadays is not as fast as before the blood moon, so some of the situations Han Ming talked about are still quite useful.
"Oh, right, maybe you don't know, Zheng Wei from the Zheng family was stabbed. It was said that it was a matter of jealousy, and the Zheng family suppressed it. I don't know who had the courage to stab this young master Zheng."
Yuan Jing raised his eyebrows: "This Zheng guy is still alive."
Han Ming almost burst out laughing. He didn't expect Yuan Jing to have such a bad impression of Young Master Zheng. Well, when Zheng Wei came to the Hope Base and suffered a great loss, all parties in the capital actually knew about it. Many people secretly said that the Zheng family was too greedy. It would be disappointing if the Zheng family succeeded.
Because of this incident, the Zheng family's influence in the imperial capital has shrunk a lot, and Zheng Wei's life is not as good as before, but he didn't expect it to end up like this.
Han Ming talked a lot about the Ling family, that is, the situation of Ling Shaoyang's cousins. Ling Shaoyang just listened. When Grandpa Ling was gone one day, his relationship with the Ling family might not be able to continue.
Although the Ling family helped him a lot in the beginning, and the Ling family played a part in securing the Hope Base and suppressing some restless forces in the imperial capital, Ling Shaoyang also believed that in the future he would rely less and less on the Ling family. On the contrary, the benefits the Ling family would get from him and the Hope Base would continue to increase.
As for the situation of Wu Qifeng, Han Ming told them when he came last time. Wu Qifeng had left the Zheng family long ago, but his personality was such that he could easily offend people. Without the Zheng family, those who disliked him took action one after another and finally forced Wu Qifeng out of the imperial capital. His subordinates were also won over by some forces in the imperial capital.
Of course, Wu Qifeng's own supernatural power level is not low, so after leaving the imperial capital, he ran to a small base and grabbed the position of base leader. I heard that he is living a good life now. Of course, Ling Shaoyang dares to say that Wu Qifeng is far from being satisfied with his current achievements. The better Ling Shaoyang does and the more famous he becomes, the more distorted and unbalanced Wu Qifeng's mentality becomes.
