Chapter 114 The Storm Is Brewing



"Huh? You don't want it?" Duan Yu asked in confusion. Are there still people who don't seek fame and fortune these days?

Although these things are useless in the apocalypse, if a good solution to the endotoxin in zombies were developed, she would be the first to possess it.

Moreover, the country is currently focusing on developing multi-faceted base housing construction, and those who have made contributions will be the first to be selected.

With such a huge temptation, how could she not be tempted?

To prevent any oversights, Duan Yu did not hide the inside information from Jiang Ruan. He was not a greedy person and would not take credit for himself.

“I see. Then you need it even more. It just so happens that there is a problem with your base. Once the housing at the new base is ready, you can be the first to move in. I only have one request: that the poor people in the neighborhood can move in. But remember to set a threshold and just grant a special area.”

Duan Yu raised an eyebrow, looked at Jiang Yan, and smiled after Jiang Yan nodded.

“I never expected Miss Jiang Ruan to be so understanding and righteous. I truly admire you. Since you don’t seek credit, I’ll give you this. It’s more than enough for self-defense.”

A lightweight pistol.

"I'll take this, thank you!"

Jiang Ruan didn't refuse anymore; instead, she happily accepted it.

"If I were to give this gun to someone else, I wonder if Captain Duan would agree."

"Of course, it's yours now, and you can give it to me anytime."

Duan Yu said, then walked to the side to report the situation.

Jiang Ruan rubbed the pistol, walked over to An Xia, and handed it to her.

"Xiaxia, here you go, it suits you perfectly."

Anxia covered her mouth in surprise, somewhat delighted.

"Oh, Ruan Ruan, you're giving me this too!" An Xia accepted it without hesitation.

But when she held it in her hands, her little face twisted in confusion.

"But Ruan Ruan, I don't know how to use this."

Jiang Ruan smiled upon hearing this, "It's alright, Hua Yi will be here soon, he'll teach you personally."

An Xia's face flushed instantly. She gently covered her face and took a few steps back. "Oh dear, what are you saying?"

"Hua Yi is coming back? That top assassin? I didn't even get a chance to have a proper talk with him last time, now I have a chance."

Zhang Yang was overjoyed to come closer, but Gu An pulled him back.

"Let's go back. It's started raining again, and it's very damp. I'll make you something to eat."

Gu An pulled Jiang Ruan back to the base, leaving Zhang Yang staring blankly at their backs.

"Hey, their relationship has gotten a lot better. Do you think they've officially confirmed their relationship?"

An Xia patted Zhang Yang on the shoulder, clicked her tongue a few times, and said, "Young man, you're too curious. Be careful, or you'll suffer the consequences."

After saying that, she left. She was waiting to get a free meal and didn't want to waste time with Zhang Yang.

"You, fine, don't tell me then. Where's Qingfeng? Where did that chatterbox go?"

Zhang Yang turned around to look for Qingfeng, but only saw Mingyue deep in thought, so he hurried over.

"..."

Mingyue ignored him, as if he had harbored some resentment towards her from the beginning.

Zhang Yang shrugged, unconcerned.

But as he turned back to the base, he saw a flash of gold in the sky.

"Huh? Gold, a gold-type ability user? Could someone be in danger? What's going on? We didn't see them when we searched that area just now."

Zhang Yang frowned and stretched out his hand, pretending to do some calculations.

Mingyue thought he looked a bit like a charlatan, but he was never one to talk much, so she didn't say anything.

Two minutes later, Zhang Yang opened his eyes. Although he was not very skilled, he was much better than the common slackers on the market, so he was able to figure it out.

"Oh no, chaos has broken out over there, with heavy casualties. I have to tell Jiang Ruan."

Zhang Yang ran and rushed over to Jiang Ruan, who was sitting at the dining table eating Gu Anxia's noodles.

"Boss...something terrible has happened!" Zhang Yang said anxiously, his voice filled with unspeakable panic.

According to his calculations, some superhumans have already been killed because of this, not to mention ordinary people. If it is not stopped soon, the zombies will become bloodthirsty and the upgraded ones will be even more difficult to deal with.

"What's wrong? Why are you so flustered? Speak slowly."

Jiang Ruan took out the same meal from her spatial storage, heated it up slightly, and handed it to Zhang Yang, saying, "Eat something first; the compressed biscuits are making your stomach acid up."

Zhang Yang suppressed the urge to immediately eat it, calmed himself down, and then told the story behind his divination.

"You mean, the base to the east is in danger and is about to collapse, and all the superhumans have been killed?"

Jiang Ruan paused for a moment as she picked up the noodles, then gently put them down and looked intently at Zhang Yang.

"Yes, that's right. And that base is where Du Chong is located. He and Li Jie have already gone there. It's said that the people there contacted him through communications and asked him to come over as soon as possible."

Zhang Yang thought to himself that Du Chong had just overheard something and then pulled Li Jie away, which he found strange.

Looking back now, there must have been a problem.

"Something's happened again!" Jiang Ruan lost her appetite and stood up, looking at Gu An. "Shall we go take a look?"

Gu An nodded. "Okay, let's go check it out. If something really happened, the losses will be huge. Let's see how things go first."

He would never refuse Jiang Ruan, especially since he had just received news that the person he was looking for was there, and the destination was the place Zhang Yang had just mentioned.

I was planning to go over and check on Jiang Ruan after she finished eating, but now it seems I can't wait any longer.

"Alright, Zhang Yang, go and call An Xia and Li Ming. Qing Feng went to help transport the zombies, which may take several days. You can call Ming Yue, and the rest of us will go and check on them. As for Jiang Yan, let him stay here for now."

“If there’s a problem over there, there will probably be a problem here soon too. We can’t be without someone to help. Jiang Yan understands this, so it’s the best thing for him to stay here.”

"Once you've notified them, tell them to meet at the entrance. We'll wait there."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Zhang Yang carried the bowl out, and Jiang Ruan, watching his retreating figure, suddenly felt like laughing.

He's the kind of person who never forgets to eat.

"Let's go, let's wait at the entrance, and I'll also see what's going on?" Jiang Ruan suddenly clutched her chest and said in a hoarse voice.

"You..." Gu An quickly stepped forward, "What's wrong? Why are you feeling unwell again out of the blue?"

Jiang Ruan pulled out something hot from her chest; she had almost thought someone had stuffed a small iron into her clothes.

"Isn't this a lucky charm your parents gave you?" Gu An stared at the glowing yellow lucky charm on the table, looking puzzled.

"I don't know, it feels weird." Jiang Ruan tried hard to recall but couldn't remember ever seeing this kind of thing in her previous life.

But it was hot, which, according to my mother, meant it was dangerous.

"Okay, I'll put something under it, it should be fine. Let's go, we'll be late in a bit."
