Lin Ruo manipulated her water-based abilities, increasing the speed of the current beneath her boat and propelling it further into the distance. Noticing that there were still many other boats ahead, she slightly adjusted her course and moved away from them.
It wasn't until the wooden boat had traveled 50 kilometers on the sea that she spotted a school of mutated mandarin fish. When she found them, Lin Ruo was quite surprised. These mandarin fish were originally freshwater fish, but now that it was the apocalypse, they no longer cared about the waters and were living quite comfortably in the sea.
However, these mutated mandarin fish are not very big, each only about two meters long, but they are all level 2.
But after searching for so long, Lin Ruo didn't complain. Her tiger cubs loved to eat fish. The large mutated sea beasts had too tight skin and too strong a fishy smell, while these mandarin fish were just the right size.
She instantly activated her water-based superpower, creating a massive water net several kilometers long that trapped all the mutated mandarin fish. The net gathered the fish together, and at the same time, her spatial domain rapidly expanded, quickly extracting the crystal cores from the fish's brains and storing them all inside her space.
Having achieved his goal, Lin Ruo saw no need to continue sailing outwards. He used his water-based abilities to control the wooden boat and return to the foot of his mountain.
As she approached the mountain peak, her mental energy detected a kayak a few kilometers away in a secluded spot. She raised an eyebrow slightly; it seemed someone had come to visit again, but she wondered if the guest was still there.
"boom!"
Suddenly, a huge explosion came from the mountain peak. Lin Ruo nodded. It seemed that these guests were quite strong and were still alive. However, such an explosion would attract more mutated beasts and mutated plants.
Lin Ruo looked at the kayak. It was very new; even the colors hadn't faded from the sun. It seemed these people were quite wealthy, and Lin Ruo felt a surge of anticipation.
Lin Ruo had quite a few boats in her space; she already had a stockpile of them, and many kind people had given her boats as gifts. But since this kayak had been delivered to her doorstep, how could she refuse it? So she casually put the kayak into her space.
She used her water-based powers to propel the wooden boat to shore. Instead of rushing home, she went to the place where she had heard the explosion earlier to see what good things these wealthy "friends" could bring her.
Lin Ruo unleashed her spatial domain, and after four months of cultivation, her spatial domain has now increased to 1300 meters square.
Of course, this is also thanks to A-Liu. In the past few months, A-Liu's fruit has ripened again. Now, Lin Ruo's mental strength has reached a bottleneck again. I wonder what kind of progress her mental strength will make after breaking through the bottleneck.
She used teleportation to quickly arrive at the site of the explosion. She hid behind a mutated tree, somewhat surprised that the five ability users in front of her were all level 3.
It's only been a year since the extreme heat started, and the highest level of human superpowers is only level 3. Even with the B City base's heavy investment in training these superpowered individuals, only about twenty have reached level 3.
The five Level 3 ability users gathered together, enveloped by an outermost layer of fire shield, which was completely surrounded by mutated plants and animals.
Lin Ruo scanned them with her mental energy and felt a little regretful, as the crystal cores in the brains of these five superhumans were of no use to her.
Suddenly, her eyes shifted, and her spatial domain enveloped them. Then, Lin Ruo had several wooden plaques in her hand, and these people were all from the Qi family.
However, these wooden plaques only have their names and ability levels written on them, similar to the wooden plaques they received at the beginning. It seems that these people are not core members of the Qi family.
Lin Ruo put the wooden plaque into her spatial storage, her thoughts drifting far away. So many superhumans from the Qi family had come to her mountain peak, using kayaks that couldn't travel far. Did that mean the Qi family she was thinking about had also arrived?
Many of the mutated plants around were charred black, and there was a lot of ashes left on the ground, indicating that they had been burned by flames.
The mutated animals around them also had many wounds, and their fur showed signs of being burned.
Two of the five ability users are fire-type ability users. Fire and wood types are now considered the nemesis of these mutated plants. However, with so many mutated plants around, these ability users are almost exhausted and are at their limit. They can't hold on for much longer.
It seems she won't need to lift a finger today. Thinking this, Lin Ruo raised an eyebrow slightly, noticing something was amiss. Why were these mutated beasts so aggressive today?
Normally at this time, these mutated beasts would retreat and let the mutated plants go first, and then they would pounce on the mutated plants when the mutated plants ran out of energy.
Because the branches of mutated plants can regenerate, as long as they have energy, they can keep growing branches, which is why so many people with superpowers are unwilling to come to this mountain.
Just as they were pondering the unusual behavior of these mutated beasts, they heard a deep yet slightly childish tiger's roar coming from behind them, "Awoo!"
Lin Ruo raised an eyebrow. She finally understood the reason for the abnormality of these mutated beasts. It turned out to be because of Alu.
Aru has now reached the peak of level 2 and will soon be able to upgrade to level 3. His aura has become even stronger, and even the mutated beasts on the mountain that are of a higher level than Aru will usually obey his call.
Now Aru has the same demeanor as its mother back then.
Aru is now five meters long. It stands behind these mutated beasts, its eyes quietly watching the people inside the fire shield. This is their territory, and they do not allow these people to come in and disturb their lives.
Upon hearing the tiger's roar, the mutated beasts surrounding the area immediately pounced on the shield, completely disregarding the fact that the fiery shield would burn them. Their enormous claws slashed at the shield, and a strong smell of burning fur assaulted Lin Ruo's nostrils. Lin Ruo frowned slightly; her senses were already exceptionally sharp, and this smell was amplified to her infinitely.
But thanks to the efforts of these mutated beasts, the fire shield trembled a few times before finally breaking.
Lin Ruo didn't continue watching the scene below. These people had exhausted their superpowers, and facing so many mutated plants and animals, the outcome was predictable.
She opened her spatial domain and quickly returned to her fortress. With Alu there, she didn't need to stay and wait for the crystal core; Alu would bring it back for her.
