Upon seeing this, Xiao Lin flew back inside the defensive wall. There might still be residual electricity on the wall. Xiao Lin instructed his men not to go up for an hour and then went to Xia He's side. Xia He's face was extremely pale, and she was sweating profusely, clearly indicating that she had overexerted her spiritual energy.
As for Ayin, Xia He placed her aside, and seeing this, Xiao Lin felt much better.
"The remaining zombies outside are nothing to fear. Go back and rest. As for Ayin, leave her to me," Xiao Lin said to Xia He. Looking at Xia He's pale face, Xiao Lin's eyes were full of heartache.
Xia He knew that she was too weak to do anything right now, so she could only try to restore her spiritual energy as soon as possible.
So without any hesitation, she whispered "Mm" to Xiao Lin and went back.
Xiao Lin didn't tell Xia He that since A Yin regained her consciousness and the mysterious man was killed, he was able to use his mental power again, and all of this might be related to A Yin.
Xiao Lin had A Yin carried back to Professor Fu's laboratory. Fortunately, apart from the glass room which suffered heavy damage, only the laboratory door was smashed open. Everything else was still there and thankfully undamaged.
This time, Professor Fu refused to let Ayin stay in his laboratory no matter what.
Xiao Lin felt a headache coming on. In the end, he had no choice but to build a new room for A Yin. Fortunately, the materials had been collected recently, and the remaining construction work of the second phase of the fortress was gradually starting.
Moreover, since the base moved here and there is no longer a shortage of energy, the ecology within the base has improved a lot. They have also recruited many water-type and wood-type ability users. Water-type ability users can release 1 to 5 tons of water a day, depending on each water-type ability user's ability.
Therefore, there is no major concern about water resources in the base now. On the production side, Dr. Wang used the seeds given by Xia He to cultivate many hydroponic vegetables, while the wood-type ability user induced the plants to grow faster.
The base is developing in a positive direction, and new policies have been introduced. As order is restored and more and more people gather, the zombies outside have not shown any further evolutionary potential during the time A-Yin was unconscious, and their numbers have even decreased.
It seems to be related to the mysterious man's research on zombies. During this period, outside survivors have been coming to the base one after another, and the transportation work in the base has gradually changed from air transport to land transport.
Newcomers to the base are initially terrified when they see zombies, but they eventually get used to them. However, they are also shocked because the zombie virus doesn't spread and can only operate within a small area.
The superhuman squad is eliminating zombies faster and more skillfully.
New regulations have been issued within the base: children under the age of 10 are not required to participate in labor within the base and receive relief points every month; seniors over the age of 65 are also not required to participate in labor within the base and receive relief points as well; people of other ages must participate in labor within the base, which can be done by working within the base, scavenging outside, or joining the guard team; those with superpowers are an exception, as those with superpowers who join the base receive monthly support from the base, but must also use their superpowers to contribute to the base.
When the new base regulations were promulgated, some people agreed with them and others opposed them. However, this was the apocalypse, and it was no longer the civilized society of the past. It was already difficult to have a relatively stable base in the apocalypse. According to survivors who escaped from other bases, those bases were ruthless and filthy.
Meanwhile, during this time, Xia He felt that her spiritual power was insufficient, so she kept herself locked in her room and worked hard to cultivate her spiritual power. She would occasionally go to her space to practice her spells. Half a month passed quickly, and Xiao Hua still showed no signs of waking up.
Ayin was also still unconscious. Xiao Lin wasn't entirely sure about Ayin's condition, so he temporarily arranged for Ayin to stay in the room next to his own. Xiao Lin placed a restriction on Ayin's room and attached his mental energy to it, so that he could know immediately if Ayin made any unusual movements.
On this day, Xia He finally woke up from her cultivation state. After half a month of recuperation, her spiritual power had been greatly restored, and her strength had also increased to a higher level. Xia He went out to see how Li Chunhua and Dr. Qian were doing lately.
Xia He knocked on Li Chunhua's door first. Coincidentally, Dr. Qian was at Li Chunhua's house. "Grandma Li, Dr. Qian, how have you been lately?" Xia He greeted them.
“We’re doing great. Xiaohe, it’s been so long since I’ve seen you. How are you?” Li Chunhua replied warmly.
"I'm cultivating my superpowers on my own. I'm free, so I just came to check on you all. If there's nothing else, I'll go find Xiao Lin. You all get some rest." After saying that, Xia He left. However, before she even reached Xiao Lin's office, she ran into Xiao Lin on the way.
"You've finally decided to come out! I attached a mental energy barrier to your door so I could sense you as soon as you opened it. That's why I've come to find you." As soon as Xiao Lin saw Xia He, he couldn't help but launch into a barrage of words, talking about the recent changes in the base, with a look on his face that said, "Am I doing a great job? Praise me!"
Xia He couldn't help but laugh, but she still patted Xiao Lin's head politely and said, "Thank you for your hard work, you did a great job."
Xiao Lin looked at Xia He, who had a faint smile on her face and was looking at him intently with her eyes slightly narrowed. He found Xia He extremely cute and couldn't help but give her a light peck on the lips. "There are so many people watching, you're being inappropriate," Xia He gently pushed Xiao Lin away and said softly.
