On the brightly lit street, a dense crowd parted to make way for a woman wearing a black heat-resistant suit. Just then, music suddenly started playing from her.
Lin Ruo raised her wrist, and the terminal clearly showed that it was Jiang Yue calling.
Without hesitation, she answered the voice call. Jiang Yue's voice came from the terminal, "Sister Ruo, I mentioned that the people below said you've arrived at the base. Where are you now?"
Lin Ruo looked around at the crowd gathered around her. "I'm here at the trade conference."
Jiang Yue assumed she wanted to buy something. Even if Lin Ruo was capable, she was still a woman, and many women enjoyed shopping. In order not to disturb Lin Ruo's enjoyment, Jiang Yue cautiously asked, "Do you still want to shop?"
Lin Ruo looked at the dozens of kilograms of seeds on her back and said, "Let's not go shopping anymore, we've already bought everything."
"Okay, can you come to the entrance of the underground base? I'll wait for you here." Jiang Yue's voice still sounded a little uneasy.
Lin Ruo narrowed her eyes. She didn't believe that the soldiers at the base gate hadn't told Jiang Yue that she had come by car. The parking lot wasn't far from the underground base. Given Jiang Yue's previous attitude, he should have delivered the power crystal to her car instead of making her go to the entrance of the underground base to get it. There must be other things going on.
"Okay." Although she knew Jiang Yue might still have other things to do, Lin Ruo still agreed, since her crystal core was still in his hands.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Ruo ignored what the people around her were thinking and sprinted towards the parking lot.
Only after the figure completely disappeared into the crowd did those who had just overheard the voice call realize, as if they were dreaming, that this was really Lin Ruo!
At this moment, a superhuman looked at the corpses still lying on the ground in the distance and muttered involuntarily, "So these people carefully selected from so many people dressed similarly, and ended up choosing to rob the real Lin Ruo. Was they lucky or unlucky?"
"..."
Those around them naturally heard this and fell silent for a moment.
"Hurry, hurry, let's get away from this place of trouble as soon as possible!"
"Right, right! Who knows if Lin Ruo can control that mutated plant? Let's hurry."
Jiang Yue, on the other end, remained in the position of making a voice call. Even though the call had ended, his eyes were still fixed on the screen.
This action was seen by Chen Yu and Ye Lin, who exchanged a silent glance before looking away.
They could tell that Jiang Yue was more favored by Lin Ruo. When she talked to Jiang Yue, she was a little less wary, but when she talked to them, she was very guarded. Even though she had known them for so long, she didn't feel any familiarity with them.
Lin Ruo returned to the parking lot, first putting the seeds in her hand into the car, and then using the car as cover to store the seeds in her spatial storage. She did not remove the shield around the car, and even added a layer of ice on top of it.
A-Liu's willow branch emerged from the backpack. It sensed its owner's energy fluctuations and came out to find that its owner had simply set up a shield by the car and was not being attacked. The willow branch swayed in the air for a moment before disappearing back into the backpack.
Lin Ruo thought A Liu was really cute, a smile appeared on her lips, she reached into her backpack, and gently stroked the willow leaves that had become even more delicate after A Liu shrank. Then an apple from her space appeared in her hand, which she gave to A Liu as a snack.
Ah Liu gently twisted the willow branch next to Lin Ruo's hand a few times, and the tip of the branch immediately pierced into the apple. An apple that was larger than the apple itself quickly shriveled up and was absorbed in less than two seconds.
After finishing these tasks, Lin Ruo turned and disappeared into the night, quickly moving towards the underground base.
When Lin Ruo arrived at the entrance of the underground base, she saw Jiang Yue standing there, carrying a bag in his hand, with Chen Yu standing with him.
Her mental energy swept over the bag in Jiang Yue's hand, confirming that it was the superpower crystal core she wanted. At this moment, she became even more certain that there was indeed something else going on. Otherwise, she would have needed the captain of the superpower team to come to give her that superpower crystal core. In this B City base, who would dare to rob Jiang Yue?
Jiang Yue saw Lin Ruo approaching quickly, so he stepped forward and handed her the bag in his hand. "Sister Ruo, these are your superpower crystal cores. Please check if the quantity is correct."
Lin Ruo took the bag from his hand. Although she had already scanned it with her mental power, she still had to pretend. She opened the bag and quickly counted the supernatural energy crystals inside.
Just then, A-Liu extended a branch from Lin Ruo's backpack and reached into the bag, sensing a rich wood-elemental energy within it.
The moment Jiang Yue and Chen Yu saw the willow branch, their pupils contracted. Lin Ruo had actually put the mutated plant in her backpack and carried it with her. Thinking of the news they had just heard from the people below, their gazes toward the backpack were filled with curiosity.
Chen Yu frowned slightly. According to the descriptions given by the law enforcement officers on the terminal, this mutated plant was at least at level 4.
I don't know where Lin Ruo got it from. To be honest, bringing such a high-level mutated plant to such a densely populated place is quite dangerous, since none of them have a wood-type ability of level 4 or above that can control it.
Just as Chen Yu was about to say something, Jiang Yue grabbed him. Back in the J City granary, Lin Ruo had already easily dealt with the mutated locust tree with special abilities. Now that she dared to bring it here, she could naturally subdue it. There was no need for them to say anything more, lest they arouse Lin Ruo's excessive resentment.
"Sister Ruo, I heard that your mutated plant was quite powerful at the trading center just now."
After pulling Chen Yu back, Jiang Yue took a few steps forward and looked at the tender branch that was constantly moving in the bag with some curiosity. How could such a small branch kill several superhumans in an instant?
Lin Ruo simply put the bag down, and A Liu's willow branch immediately picked up the bag containing the crystal cores and put it into her backpack.
“This is my partner, its name is A-Liu.”
When A Liu heard its owner introducing it to others, a branch immediately stretched out of the backpack, a small section of tender green branch swaying gently in the air.
Jiang Yue curiously reached out to touch it, but the next second, the small section of tender green branch rapidly expanded to more than ten meters, completely surrounding Jiang Yue several times.
Then the thick branch patted Jiang Yue's outstretched hand and immediately turned back into a tender new shape, creating a striking contrast that Ah Liu had made quite a bit of.
Jiang Yue, startled, and Chen Yu, who instinctively reached for his gun, were speechless.
Lin Ruo coughed lightly, "Uh, it's been a bit mischievous lately, it was just greeting you."
Jiang Yue and Chen Yu blinked and breathed a sigh of relief. Jiang Yue even chuckled twice, "Very cute, hehe."
Chen Yu turned to look at Jiang Yue, his eyes filled with disbelief. "You call this cute?"
