The stench of blood in the air gradually dissipated, and Chen Yu, despite his injuries, continued to direct the other soldiers to clean up the battlefield.
Jiang Yue walked past the crowd toward Lin Ruo. Seeing that Lin Ruo was surrounded by people with superpowers, he was surprised and asked, "What are you all doing here?"
Su Buqing stepped forward and said softly, "Lin Ruo just saved many of our lives, so let's thank her."
Jiang Yue nodded, so that's how it is. But by the light from the side, he could see Lin Ruo's furrowed brows, probably because she was really annoyed by the noise from these people.
“I’ve already thanked you, you can go back now,” Jiang Yue waved to them. “I still need to take Lin Ruo to see your captain, I have important business to attend to.”
"yes!"
These superhumans were already injured, and it was already quite an achievement that they had managed to hold on until now. Upon hearing Jiang Yue's words, they immediately turned around and headed towards the hospital.
Zheng Yanfei followed behind Su Buqing for a couple of steps. She turned around and saw Lin Ruo standing under the light, dressed in black, seemingly glowing. Suddenly, she found her future goal: to become such a powerful person!
After the superhumans left, Lin Ruo took out all the crystal cores she had previously selected and washed them. A huge water sphere enveloped the backpack containing the superhuman crystal cores. The water flow in the sphere was very fast, and the crystal cores in the backpack also jumped out of the backpack and were immediately washed clean by the water flow, sinking to the bottom of the water sphere.
After washing the backpack and crystal core clean, Lin Ruo removed the water balloon, drained the water from the backpack, and put the crystal core back into the backpack.
Jiang Yue stood silently beside her, watching Lin Ruo's series of actions. Cleaning the backpack and crystal core was just a small matter, but he could see Lin Ruo's abnormal control over water. He had even seen it on the battlefield before. As long as Lin Ruo got close to those water-type ability users, their moves would instantly collapse, as if the water they controlled no longer obeyed their commands.
This was the first time he had ever seen that there was a suppression between different superpowers.
Seeing that Lin Ruo had finished cleaning up, Jiang Yue smiled and stepped forward. "Lin Ruo, are you done? The base commander said he wants me to take you to his office to fulfill his promise to you regarding the reward."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ruo's eyes lit up. She was finally going to get her crystal cores. This B City base was indeed very wealthy and generous, even giving her so many ability crystal cores at once. With these ability crystal cores, as long as her mental strength broke through, her ability could be upgraded again.
"Let's go." With that, he took the lead and walked towards the gate of the underground base.
Jiang Yue blinked in surprise and followed Lin Ruo's steps. He rarely saw Lin Ruo so cooperative. It turned out that this person liked superpower crystal cores.
After this incident, Jiang Yue realized that if Lin Ruo had suddenly appeared on her own, the soldiers would have recognized her as long as she appeared within a few hundred meters of the base. However, she entered the city without making a sound, and it wasn't until she killed three Qi family ability users in the city that anyone recognized her.
Considering the house Lin Ruo lived in and the surrounding area of exceptionally powerful mutated plants, as well as the other types of supernatural power crystals she wanted, Jiang Yue had a vague guess in his mind that perhaps Lin Ruo wasn't alone; she might have teammates.
But he wisely refrained from asking. It was Lin Ruo's privacy, and they had finally managed to work with her again. They couldn't let such a small act of curiosity push her away once more.
As they entered the underground base, Lin Ruo followed behind Jiang Yue. This was Lin Ruo's first time in this underground base. As soon as she entered, a cool feeling rushed towards her. The temperature difference between the underground base and the outside was at least ten degrees.
The underground base was bustling with survivors and superhumans. They would greet Jiang Yue politely, but when they saw Lin Ruo behind him, their eyes would quickly look away. Some of them had witnessed the battle between the superhumans, and Lin Ruo's god-like demeanor was deeply imprinted in their minds.
Lin Ruo no longer pays too much attention to these people's behavior; she now only focuses on her crystal core.
"Knock knock knock~"
Jiang Yue led Lin Ruo through the underground base for more than ten minutes and finally arrived at Ye Lin's residence. At this time, there were several superhuman guards outside Ye Lin's residence, and medical staff were going in and out.
Lin Ruo's eyes flickered. During the battle, her mental energy had been covering the entire battlefield, and she had clearly "seen" the situation on Ye Lin's hand. He had only been shot in the shoulder by a metal arrow. In addition, Ye Lin was an ability user, and ability users have strong physical abilities, so injuries heal very quickly. Why would such a large-scale treatment be necessary?
Jiang Yue, his previous relaxed expression changed, and with a heavy look, led Lin Ruo into Ye Lin's residence.
Lin Ruo then realized that Ye Lin was working at his desk, and the medical staff coming in and out were not treating him, but a real critically ill patient.
"Lin Ruo is here, please sit down." Ye Lin was wearing a shirt, but the shoulders of the shirt were stained with blood. He smiled and reached out to Lin Ruo, inviting her to sit on the sofa.
On the coffee table in front of the sofa was a wooden box. After Lin Ruo sat down, she probed the box with her spiritual power and found that the reward Ye Lin had promised her was indeed inside.
Ye Lin didn't ask Jiang Yue to get water for Lin Ruo, because he knew that even if he did, Lin Ruo wouldn't drink it. It would be better to give her the reward quickly, which would make her happier.
"This is the reward I promised you. You can open it and take a look." Ye Lin reached out and pushed the wooden box in front of Lin Ruo.
Lin Ruo didn't stand on ceremony. Her only tool at the moment was the backpack on her back, so she couldn't just carry the box away. She had to take out the crystal cores inside and put them in the backpack on her back.
She quickly opened the wooden box in front of her and stuffed all the crystal cores inside into the backpack behind her.
Ye Lin saw that she didn't feel any heartache when she took these superpower crystals. The superpowered individuals in the base couldn't absorb these superpower crystals for long-term cultivation because the strength of their mental power varied from person to person.
Each time they absorb these crystal cores, their superpower state is saturated, but their mental strength cannot keep up, so they still cannot upgrade. That's why there are so many surplus superpower crystal cores stored in the base.
Lin Ruo placed the backpack beside her, turned to look at Ye Lin, and said, "I don't know what your plans are, but I will continue to hunt down the Qi family."
