As Lin Ruo drove through the mutated plants that obstructed his view, he appeared in the firebreak of the B City base and saw Jiang Yue and Chen Yu already waiting at the entrance of the B City base with their men.
Not far from the firebreak, Lin Ruo drove for a few minutes and arrived at the base entrance, stopping with a screech about two meters away from the two of them.
The survivors around looked at the truck, but unfortunately the back of the truck was completely blocked, so they couldn't see what was inside. They were all guessing what was in the truck.
Some people were there yesterday, and they heard about "poison sacs" yesterday. Could this be the thing on the car?
She didn't turn off the car and jumped out. Sensing the probing gazes around her, Lin Ruo turned her head and swept her eyes over these people. They quickly lowered their heads and pretended to be busy with their own things, afraid of being spotted by Lin Ruo.
Jiang Yue and Chen Yu also sensed the situation around them. Seeing those people lower their heads in fear, the smiles on their lips faded slightly.
Lin Ruo withdrew her gaze and said to them, "The goods are on the truck. You can drive in and unload them, and load my things on it too."
Jiang Yue looked at the wooden crates loaded on the truck, then looked at Chen Yu. Chen Yu nodded slightly, stepped forward, and said to Lin Ruo, "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on things the whole time, and nothing will be missing."
Lin Ruo nodded. She was not worried at all; she could find out whether there were any crystal cores or not by scanning the car with her mental power once it was out of the way.
Even... Lin Ruo blinked; she was actually hoping for a situation where there wouldn't be enough crystal cores.
Chen Yu got into the truck with a deft movement, and the truck drove into the gate of the B City base. Those who had been craning their necks to find out what was going on all fell silent.
Jiang Yue then took a few steps closer to Lin Ruo, stopping a meter away from her, and whispered to her, "Sister Ruo, things aren't peaceful outside lately. There's a group of people who specifically hunt down people with superpowers. Dozens of people with superpowers in our base have already fallen victim to them. You must be careful when you go out."
Lin Ruo's eyes flickered slightly as she recalled the group of people she had encountered earlier that day. Jiang Yue must have been referring to them. She herself was not in any danger; the ones in danger were the ability users at the B City base.
However, Jiang Yue certainly didn't know that she had already encountered it, so this was a well-intentioned reminder, which made her seem a little unkind. She shifted her gaze slightly and said, "I know, I encountered it today."
Jiang Yue was surprised. He hadn't expected Lin Ruo to have encountered those cannibals, and yet those cannibals hadn't attacked her? Given Lin Ruo's personality, if these people had attacked her, she would have eliminated them completely and would never have allowed them to hunt down ability users so brazenly.
"You saw them? They attacked you?"
Lin Ruo shook her head, "They were hunting and didn't notice me."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yue asked anxiously, "Sister Ruo, do you know how many of them there are? Where did you encounter them today? Several squads at our base have been killed by these people recently. If these people are left unchecked, they will definitely be a menace to City B. The base commander has already ordered that the City B base must do everything in its power to eliminate them. Don't worry, our base can buy this information from you."
After throwing out a series of words, Lin Ruo turned to look at him. She could tell that the superhumans at the B City base had indeed been attacked quite a few times these days. She had brought up this topic just now in the hopes of providing them with some clues.
After all, she is still cooperating with the B City base, and Jiang Yue was indeed providing some clues out of goodwill, so it doesn't really harm her.
"Today I encountered them more than 30 kilometers southeast of the B City base. They captured the superhumans from the Qiyuan base."
"I only saw three superhumans: one who could spew poisonous smoke, one who was metal-type, and one who was earth-type. All three were level 3 superhumans. There were also a dozen or so ordinary survivors acting as their porters."
"They used poisonous smoke to drug people and take them away. The poisonous smoke works very quickly; just a little bit will cause immediate effects."
"That's all. As for where they went, I don't know."
Jiang Yue was excited when he heard the specific location Lin Ruo gave him. He was finally going to find them. But when he heard that these people could also control poisonous smoke, he realized that the superhumans at their base must have been drugged and taken away as well.
Thinking of this, he immediately frowned. If the other party's poisonous smoke was so potent that it was impossible to defend against, then the superhumans they were searching for outside were also very likely to be affected.
We must report this immediately, bring those people back with their equipment, and then go to capture them again. We can also coordinate with the Qiyuan Base...
"Sister Ruo, wait here for a while. I'll go report to the base chief first." Jiang Yue told Lin Ruo, then turned and ran towards the base, afraid that if he was late, there would be any more casualties among the superhumans.
Lin Ruo shrugged and continued to stand there waiting for her car. The survivors around her avoided her when they passed by. Lin Ruo touched her nose. She wasn't a monster. She wouldn't do anything to them if they passed by.
These people had an instinctive fear of Lin Ruo, mainly because she was notorious for her many misdeeds. And look at all the people she had killed—each one died a gruesome death. Who would want to provoke her?!
Fortunately, Chen Yu and his team acted quickly, and in less than half an hour, she saw her car drive out of the base gate.
When the truck pulled up in front of her, she scanned it with her mental energy, and the number of crystal cores inside immediately became clear in her mind. There were a total of 500, which surprised her.
After Chen Yu jumped out of the car and walked up to Lin Ruo, he asked, "Do you want to go up and count them?"
Chen Yu meant well. Crystal cores are extremely important in this apocalyptic world. Unlike the previous electronic transactions where everything was transparent, this kind of transaction should be counted for peace of mind.
Lin Ruo shook her head, "No need."
Chen Yu was slightly surprised, but still said, "There are some extra crystal cores here. The base commander just gave them to us, saying that you provided the base with very useful information. This is the money to buy information."
Lin Ruo scratched her brow. Was the information she had just provided really worth so many crystal cores? Oh well, they said it was a transaction, so once she gave them the crystal cores, they would be even.
She nodded, turned around and quickly got into the car. Chen Yu took a few steps back to a safe distance.
Lin Ruo quickly drove away from the B City base. Trading with the B City base was indeed simple. It seemed that she could bring any rare items to the B City base to sell in the future.
