Chapter 374
Yuan Jing and Ling Shaoyang didn't stay outside for too long. They knew that if they didn't go back, Hope Kiri's management would get anxious.
It is easy to imagine that during the time they were away, many people could not help but take action against the Hope Base.
Because they left Sanwei behind, the two of them could wander outside without any worries, but their subordinates didn't know that.
Now, with a much more spectacular team, the two of them rushed towards the Hope Base.
A few more strange beasts were added, and there was a row of ten strange plants. Have you ever seen trees and flowers that can run on their own? You can see it by watching their row.
No one dared to look on the road. The sight of those strange beasts alone made the mercenary teams stay away from them. Although some people who had been to the Hope Base recognized that the one flying in the sky was a black eagle, they did not come forward to get close to it.
But when they got outside the Hope Base, a crowd of onlookers gathered outside, and the news spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, so that when they entered the base, they were blocked on both sides, pointing at the alien plants following Yuan Jing and exclaiming in amazement. How could people not be amazed by such well-behaved alien plants that walked on their own? This also led to their admiration for the two leaders of the base reaching a new height.
The top leaders of the base also rushed to greet them. For example, Zou Haiyang had known about the existence of the Dracaena fragrans long ago, but he did not expect that the two bosses were so interested in bringing back these exotic plants. However, for them, the more exotic plants the better.
Ling Shaoyang asked the management to wait in his and Yuan Jing's villa while they went to settle the exotic beasts and plants first. Sanwei occupied Yuan Jing's shoulder and took the lead in telling Yuan Jing what happened in the base. Therefore, before meeting other senior executives, the two knew everything that happened in the base.
Yuan Jing brought out several baskets of spiritual fruits planted in the space for Sanwei as a reward for its contribution. Among the exotic plants he found this time, three of them produced fruits that would be of great benefit to those with special abilities and warriors. However, he had not told the news to others yet. He would use them as rewards when the time comes. Of course, this was not their first discovery. Some people who had collected the fruits of these mutant plants had sent them to the laboratory for testing.
What he brought back this time is more powerful and more effective.
The exotic plants were placed on a hill adjacent to the Exotic Beast Garden, which was called the Exotic Plant Garden. The ten exotic plants were all watered with spiritual spring water, which was good for their growth and mutation. While absorbing the spiritual spring water, each of them shook its leaves, sending a message to Yuan Jing that they liked it here.
Yuan Jing then went back to the villa with Ling Shaoyang, followed by Sanwei. When they arrived at the villa, they went to wash up first, and then ate while listening to everyone's reports.
When they came back, everyone felt relieved. Without them, they felt uneasy.
The story begins when Yuan Jing and Ling Shaoyang left the imperial capital to carry out a mission. Not long after they left the imperial capital, the patrol team discovered that the alien beast army was somewhat restless. When they reported the situation to their superiors, it immediately attracted the attention of Lu Qi and others. They asked Sanwei to find out the situation, and the alien beasts had to be dealt with.
When Sanwei smelled the scent of those strange beasts, he got furious. Someone actually dared to cause trouble under his nose. Unfortunately, these drugs would have no effect on him, but would make other strange beasts crazy and attract strange beasts from outside. You can imagine what the result would be.
Sanwei walked around the base and arrested quite a few people and handed them over to Luqi and others for handling. Those people still cried out that they were innocent, but Sanwei took out a packet of powder from one of them. It was this powder that caused the strange beast to behave strangely. Luqi and others used the strange beasts outside for experiments while asking the laboratory to test what this thing was. The results of both sides confirmed that this powder was a kind of thing that could lure and stimulate the strange beasts to go crazy. These people brought this drug into the Hope Base with the intention of doing something bad.
Because the leaders were not there, no matter how much these people cried out for injustice, they were all thrown into jail and waited for the leaders to come back and decide their fate.
At the same time, they also arrested all the suspicious people they had been monitoring before, holding the principle of rather missing them than letting them go. When Yuan Jing and the others had not returned, other bases had already protested to Hope Base, condemning Hope Base for detaining their personnel and hoping for their immediate release and apology.
But just before and after Zou Haiyang came back, the protests disappeared. Zou Haiyang knew this very well, because the strength demonstrated by the two bosses in this operation made other bases wary, so how could they dare to confront them head-on?
Other bases, including the Imperial Capital Base, are probably re-evaluating the strength of Ling Shaoyang, Yuan Jing and the Hope Base at this time.
Ling Shaoyang nodded and said, "Yuan Jing and I understand. Let's take a night's rest and meet those people tomorrow morning to deal with this matter."
"Okay, boss. We'll be leaving first so as not to disturb you from resting." They said goodbye and left honestly. In fact, the news that Zou Haiyang brought back alone made them very excited. The sixth-level peak zombie monster died at the hands of Ling Shaoyang and Yuan Jing. This meant that their strength had reached the peak in this doomsday. They were the strongest in this doomsday.
As they said, all bases including the imperial capital officials were re-evaluating their strength. Who could have thought that the monster that could control tens of thousands of zombies would die in Yuan Jing's hands? Was Yuan Jing's ability really just poison and affinity for strange beasts? This affinity might be an ability that emerged from his mental power, so he was not afraid of the mental attack of the sixth-level monster.
The imperial capital has the most detailed information about superpowers, among which mental power is the most special one, and the ways of displaying it are also different. For example, there are those who can control supernatural beasts to fight, there are those who focus on fighting and directly use mental power to attack other people's spiritual sea, and there are those who confuse other people's minds and create illusions to make people lost in them. But it is obvious that so far no one with mental power can compete with the peak monster of level six, and Yuan Jing is not afraid at all.
So, besides being a poison-type superpower, he is also a psychic superpower. So what level of psychic power has he reached? This is a mystery to the imperial capital officials and other bases.
If Yuan Jing followed the main force back to the imperial capital, perhaps they would keep him and interrogate him, and of course their attitude would be polite. However, he and Ling Shaoyang did not come back at all. Apparently, they knew what situation they would face if they came back, so they simply did not come. It is unknown when they will come to the imperial capital again.
Compared to Ling Shaoyang, they are more wary of Yuan Jing. After all, Ling Shaoyang's strength is visible, and they know his upper limit of strength, but they cannot see where Yuan Jing's limit is. They only think that he is unfathomable and invincible to some extent.
As a senior official in the imperial capital, Grandpa Ling naturally also received this information. He took a breath after reading it. He had already overestimated Yuan Jing, but he didn't expect it to exceed his expectations. Now that he thinks about it, Shaoyang's rush to S City to meet up with Yuan Jing as soon as the end of the world came was the wisest choice. In addition, with the potions he made, his role was much more important than that of his grandson.
The news spread from the top to the bottom, causing all forces in the imperial capital to re-evaluate the value of Yuan Jing. With him, any party would be able to build a powerful base. It was a pity that he had already been picked up by Ling Shaoyang, a member of the Ling family. In their eyes, Ling Shaoyang became the most cunning one. However, if they could not win him over, they had to have a good relationship with this person and the Hope Base. There was no need to offend such an unfathomable strong man.
As for the Zheng family, when the head of the Zheng family heard the news, he accidentally dropped the cup in his hand to the ground and broke it into pieces. However, he didn't care about that and kept asking, "There's no news coming back from there? There's enough time for someone to go back and forth, but they haven't killed the person yet?"
As confident as the Zheng family was at the beginning, they are as panicked now. They never thought that even after they took out the latest research results, the drug that could make the strange beasts become manic, it did not cause chaos in the Hope Base. Instead, it gave people evidence to arrest all the suspicious people. When the Zheng family knew the result, they secretly thought that it was not good, and quickly asked people to find an opportunity to kill those arrested people so that the evidence would not fall into the hands of the Hope Base.
"No news. How about...I go and ask again?"
The head of the Zheng family issued a strict order: "We must not expose our Zheng family!"
"yes!"
Before Ling Shaoyang and Yuan Jing returned to Hope Base, the Zheng family used their connections everywhere to try to make peace with the Ling family. As soon as Old Man Ling heard about the Zheng family's movements, he knew that they had done something bad behind the scenes again, but nothing had gone wrong at Hope Base, so he didn't take it to heart. Now that Yuan Jing's true situation has been reported back, the Zheng family panicked, but it's too late. Old Man Ling hopes that Hope Base can get some solid evidence to make the Zheng family pay.
The other forces were not stupid either. They probably knew that the Zheng family had previously gathered forces to deal with the Hope Base. Unfortunately, the Hope Base was in good condition, and the leader Yuan Jing was unfathomable. At this time, they did not draw a clear line with the Zheng family, and it was considered a good thing that they did not take the opportunity to add insult to injury.
Unfortunately, no matter how much the Zheng family and the forces colluding with the Zheng family did, what was coming had to come. Ling Shaoyang sent people to deliver the evidence and the seized evidence from the captured people directly to the imperial capital, letting the top leaders of the imperial capital take care of it.
The evidence sent there caused an uproar among the top officials in the imperial capital. The Zheng family's sinister intentions were shocking.
It is already difficult for humans to survive the apocalypse. The number of people has been reduced by nearly three-quarters compared to before the apocalypse. Even though this number is much better than the situation in the original world line, the countless deaths make the survivors even more precious. At this time, they want to create an alien beast riot to attack the survivors' base. If the Zheng family succeeds, how many survivors in the base will die?
The Hope Base now has a population of one million. What will be the fate of so many people if the base can no longer support itself?
The Zheng family's actions are undoubtedly crimes against humanity.
"Deal with them severely and do not let them off lightly!" the top leader gave the order after confirming the effect of the drug.
