Fu Heng said coldly, "If you dare to release the monster, I will make sure you never leave alive!"
Yan Luo burst into laughter. "Hahahaha! What a 'no return' situation! Fu Heng, Fu Heng, you really are naive. Did you think I, Yan Luo, was completely unprepared?"
Yanluo looked at them with a mischievous grin and continued speaking.
"Do you still remember Li Xin? I saved her life. She hates you to the core. I even taught her some of our planet's martial arts. With her dying for me, why not?"
Ye Yunxi's heart skipped a beat when she heard the name Li Xin. She hadn't expected that Yan Luo had actually rescued her, healed her, and even taught her martial arts. It seemed that Li Xin was no longer as easy to deal with as before.
Commander Wu and Zhou Yuan didn't know who Li Xin was, but judging from Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng's expressions, she was definitely not a good person and must have a grudge against them.
Seeing their troubled expressions, Yanluo smiled and continued.
"Since we've come this far, then see you next time."
After saying this, Yanluo disappeared on the spot before they could react.
Fu Heng reacted quickly and fired a shot in Yan Luo's direction, but unfortunately it missed him and hit the wall instead.
Commander Wu and Zhou Yuan were no longer as surprised as the first time by the person who suddenly appeared and then disappeared again.
Ye Yunxi said with a grim expression.
"I didn't expect that Li Xin, whom we killed last year, would actually be rescued by Yan Luo. Judging from the words he spoke so confidently, it seems that we really need to guard against monsters invading the base."
Upon hearing Ye Yunxi's words, the base commander felt somewhat worried.
"So how should we defend against it?"
Commander Wu was genuinely worried about the safety of everyone at the base. In the past few years of the apocalypse, people had been dying off from the very beginning, and now each base only had a population of a few hundred thousand.
If something else happens, the hope of survival for the Blue Star people will become increasingly slim, until their population becomes extinct and the Blue Star people cease to exist.
Fu Heng knew about Wu Ji's concerns, but he didn't have any good solutions at the moment.
Even if their space is large enough for people to enter, they won't easily put people inside.
He looked at the base commander and spoke slowly.
"We have no choice but to fight it out. Let Captain Li and his men take the lead and build the walls higher where they are low, and fill in any holes. We can also put up an electric fence around the base."
Ye Yunxi thought for a moment and then said, "I can provide the poison, but the medicinal materials need the cooperation of the base hospital. I need everyone to work together to make the medicine."
Hyun-woo and Min-woo continued, "We can increase the amount of ammunition and modify the firearms."
The base commander listened to their words and smiled as he spoke to them.
"The power grid base has it; I'll instruct them to get it done right away. I'll also send someone to the hospital and research center to let them know. Thank you all for your help."
With you all here, I feel much more at ease. It's getting late, Xiao Fu, Yunxi, you should go and rest first, and come back to work tomorrow.”
Fu Heng nodded. It was indeed very late, and they needed to rest. They would start working once the base commander was ready.
"Alright, then we'll head back first. We'll leave the rest to the base commander to handle, and we'll come back to do our work then."
After saying goodbye to the base commander and Zhou Yuan, Ye Yunxi and the others went home.
After returning home, the group didn't say anything, quickly washed up, and went to their rooms to rest.
The next morning, they got up early and went to the hospital and research center.
Gu Qingqing and Zhang Jing received the news and cooperated with Ye Yunxi to make poison.
Of course, Elder Ye and Shen Nuoyang were also there to assist them.
Li Yan and He Yidong were also busy. They didn't know when the monster Yan Luo mentioned would arrive, so they could only work overtime every day to speed up their defenses.
Commander Wu instructed everyone at the base to strengthen their awareness of defense and to keep their weapons on their bedside tables or under their pillows so that they could protect themselves and their families in case of a surprise attack.
For several days in a row, Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng shuttled between the hospital and the research center. When they got tired, they would find a place to rest and then get up to continue working.
An electric fence was added to the outer perimeter of the base, and everyone was on high alert, not daring to sleep too soundly at night.
At the same time, at the Fifth Base, Yanluo was discussing matters with Base Commander Han.
Commander Han asked Yanluo, "Lord Yanluo, these monsters are ready. When should we give the order to release them?"
Yanluo fiddled with Han Ji's things, speaking slowly and deliberately.
"It's alright, just wait a few more days. They're still on high alert these days. Once they think there are no more monsters, their defenses will be less stringent, and then we can release the monsters and wipe them out in one fell swoop."
"This is how the base commander Han is being so obsequious," he said.
"Yes, yes, Lord Yanluo is truly brilliant! He first made them nervous, thinking that the monster was coming, then waited a while, and when they thought the monster really wasn't coming, he launched a sneak attack. What a brilliant plan!"
Yanluo said without looking up, "Go and give the orders first, and prepare more monsters so we can release them directly when the time comes."
"Yes, I will go and give the order right away."
After Commander Han left, Yan Luo also disappeared.
Ye Yunxi and her team were unaware of Yan Luo's plan and were working overtime to produce potions and weapons. They dared not slacken their efforts and informed Base Commander Wu to increase patrols and be more vigilant on each patrol.
More than two weeks have passed, and the base is safe and sound. Most people think that the monster is just a gimmick and that there will never be one, much less attack them at the base.
Some people start to relax and no longer live as vigilantly as before.
But some people still believed the base chief's words and remained vigilant.
A few days later, one night, everyone fell into a deep sleep, and some people started snoring and dreaming.
The patrolmen had also become somewhat lax, lacking their previous vigilance.
Suddenly, one by one, white monsters emerged from underground, digging tunnels into the base.
While everyone was asleep, monsters entered the base and began sniffing at the human scent, wriggling toward the source of the smell.
Enter the house through the window, find the sleeping person, open your mouth, reveal your teeth, and bite the sleeping person.
People who were fast asleep felt pain, opened their eyes, saw the enormous creature in front of them, and cried out in surprise.
Before they could even draw their weapons to attack the monster, it bit them to death and began to eat their flesh.
Some quick-thinking individuals swiftly drew their weapons and engaged the monster in battle.
Those who weren't attacked, upon hearing nearby noises, woke up, grabbed weapons, and protected themselves and their families.
At this moment, screams, cries, fighting sounds, and gunshots began to ring out from the base.
Soldiers on patrol also joined the fight to protect the civilians.
