Xiao Lin watched the changes around Xia He and his breath hitched. The spiritual energy around Xia He was increasing wildly, and her body was emitting a dazzling light! She was suspended in the air, and Xia He felt the spiritual energy of the little flower flowing into her body, and a warm power surged into her body.
This power does not come from ordinary spiritual energy, but is more like the essence of life, full of vitality and healing power.
Xia He's previously exhausted body was rejuvenated, her skin glowing with a faint radiance, as if she were under divine protection. Her eyes sparkled with an extraordinary light, like twinkling stars.
The surrounding environment also underwent subtle changes around Xia He. The dark night seemed to brighten because of her presence, and the air was filled with the sacred aura of a divine beast.
Xia He wielded the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, the runes on the blade gleaming and radiating a mysterious power.
The infusion of Xiaohua's spiritual power provided Xiahe with even more energy, allowing her spiritual power to reach a new level. She felt as if she had merged with the rhythm of nature, experiencing a wondrous resonance with this land.
In an instant, Xia He adapted to her suddenly increased strength, leaping into the horde of zombies with extraordinary agility, like a shadow darting through the night. Each swing of her blade was accompanied by a dazzling flash, like lightning slicing through the darkness. Zombies fell around her, their blood falling like spring rain.
Xia He's spiritual power reached its peak amidst the flashing blades, and she seemed to transform into a war god, her divine might surpassing that of the zombies.
Xia He traversed the zombie horde at incredible speed. Wherever she flew, zombies fell one after another, their blood scattering like fireworks amidst the flashing blades she wielded. The mysterious light emanating from the runes on her blades seemed like a divine judgment, rendering the zombies utterly powerless before her.
With each swing of her sword, Xia He was like a raging storm, sweeping the zombies into the chaotic eye of the tempest. Her figure moved swiftly through the night, agile and sharp, the zombies unable to keep up with her pace. Her swordsmanship was skillful and rapid, each strike routing a group of zombies and averting a crisis.
As the last zombie's head fell, the entire battlefield fell into a deathly silence once more. Xiao Lin took advantage of the moment before everyone could recover.
"Take the wounded to treatment. If anyone is bitten by a zombie, please report it and isolate them. The rest of you who are still able to move, go and build a defensive wall."
After the recent battle, most people in the base were no longer willing to step outside to build defensive walls.
Xiao Lin's expression was extremely solemn. "The construction of the defensive wall is a matter of life and death for the base. Every additional person who joins us increases our chances of survival by one second. We must hurry. The sooner the defensive wall is built, the longer we have a chance to live!"
After Xiao Lin finished speaking, the people in the base began to whisper among themselves. "Tch, what do you mean by hope of survival? I think they just want us to do hard labor and die! Whoever wants to go can go! I'm not doing it!" A short man with shifty eyes, tattered clothes, and a trembling leg said from the side.
"You don't want to go, huh? Fine, then get out of the base! Since you're not involved in the base's construction, the base has no obligation to protect your safety. Hai Dong, send this person out by helicopter!" Xiao Lin's cold voice rang out in the base's hall.
The short, leg-shaking man thought Xiao Lin was just bluffing, but to his surprise, Hai Dong actually dragged him out. Only then did he start yelling, "Base Commander! No! I was just joking! Base Commander! Spare me!"
Xiao Lin looked at the remaining people and said, "I hope everyone understands that this is the apocalypse, not the civilized society of the past. Everyone in the base must participate in the construction of the base. The base will also provide you with energy and resources, and you will be protected accordingly. I won't say more. Time is tight and the task is heavy. Think about the rest yourselves!"
Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. These people have been staying in the base for too long, and when they go out to fight, there are always superhumans to take their place. Some of them have long forgotten that they are in a cannibalistic apocalypse. If they stay in a comfortable life for too long, they will forget that they are actually in hell.
“Using force to suppress is unavoidable,” Xiao Lin said, looking at Xia He.
After saying that, he continued to ask, "Xia He, how are you feeling?" Xiao Lin asked Xia He anxiously.
Xia He's body emitted a faint glow. She smiled slightly, her expression revealing a weary yet resolute will. "Xiao Hua's spiritual power has allowed me to regain some strength, and I can continue fighting now. We cannot stop. The construction of the defensive wall is crucial, and we must race against time."
With that, Xia He brandished her Green Dragon Crescent Blade and threw herself back into the work of constructing the defensive wall. Beside her, other ability users and survivors from the base joined in. Although the previous battle had exhausted their strength, everyone threw themselves into the work without hesitation in the face of this life-or-death test.
Hai Dong led a group of armed men, urgently and systematically setting up the defensive wall around the base. Everyone on this land understood that this was not just a battle, but a struggle for survival.
Fortunately, the base is currently located near the oil field, so energy is not a concern. As a result, the construction work is progressing very smoothly. The residents of the base, after being beaten by Xiao Lin, have regained their fighting spirit and joined the construction of the defensive wall. However, this time, the elderly and those with mobility issues are doing relay work inside the base, while the young and strong are being allowed to participate in the work on the perimeter.
However, inside the base at this time...
A man was convulsing on his hospital bed. His elderly mother, who was taking care of him, rushed over to him, saying, "It's okay, it's okay, Ah Hu, you'll be alright."
