After using his spatial domain several times, Lin Ruoren arrived at the entrance of the Qinglin Base. Having seen the architectural style of the C City Base before, the Qinglin Base was practically dilapidated compared to it.
The city wall was made entirely of piled-up rubble, and a dozen or so ordinary superhumans were guarding the city gate. However, these superhumans were only level 1 or 2, so it seemed that they had only recently become superhumans.
There weren't many survivors coming and going at the entrance. Lin Ruo's mental energy spread out, extending only towards the direction of the Qinglin Base. The mental energy that could originally spread out 15 kilometers could now extend to 20 kilometers.
Through his mental power, Lin Ruo could see the entire Qinglin Base. The base was not large, only about 18 kilometers in area, and there were not many people living there, probably only tens of thousands.
Among these people, those with superpowers are naturally a tiny minority, numbering only a few hundred. The rest are all ordinary survivors, but the lives of these ordinary survivors can only be described as miserable.
The Qinglin Gang, which wielded immense power in the C City base in their previous life, has now established its own base after losing those weapons and the opportunity to seize control of C City. However, villains are villains, and the events that occurred in the C City base are now being replayed in the Qinglin base.
While controlling his mental energy to observe the situation inside, Lin Ruo used his spatial domain to teleport into the city.
As soon as she entered the city, she smelled a strong stench of blood. Her brows furrowed involuntarily. It couldn't be called a stench of blood anymore; it was more like a foul, pungent smell that was irritating to the nose.
Her spiritual power already knew what had happened here, but experiencing it up close still made Lin Ru frown.
On the street, a superhuman beast tamer was laughing as his mutated beast tore a grown man apart. Its enormous claws ripped open the man's stomach, and blood flowed everywhere. The beast stretched its neck and lowered its head to devour the man's body.
There were still many severed limbs on the ground, and the bloodstains on the ground had just dried in the wind, and then new blood flowed over again.
This mutated beast has already eaten many people, and now it has slowed down its eating speed, so it must be almost full.
The ordinary survivors nearby watched this scene with numb expressions, completely ignoring it and continuing with their work. Some even stood by watching, their faces filled with covetousness and sneers, showing no fear that the mutated beast might pounce on them.
Even in the nearby buildings, people were betting on how long it would take for the mutated beast to devour the man. Surprisingly, quite a few people participated, their bloodshot eyes watching the mutated beast eat on the street with smiles on their lips, looking quite pleased with themselves. The malice in human nature was fully revealed.
Stepping into this place gave Lin Ruo this experience, just like when she first entered the C City base controlled by the Qinglin Gang in her previous life.
This is a city of sin; the people who live here either commit evil or are oppressed.
In this life, Lin Ruo has always lived alone in City B, and has not been exposed to much of the filth and ugliness of human nature. As a result, when she saw these things now, her brows furrowed involuntarily. Then she looked away and strode away.
She hadn't walked far in the city when she saw two groups of people trading on the street. Lin Ruo's senses were extremely sharp, and she easily smelled the cannibalistic odor on one of the groups.
The cannibals handed over the crystal cores to the other party, and the other party handed over their "goods" to the cannibals.
These "goods" were all living people. It wasn't hard to imagine what would happen to these people after they were bought by these cannibals. Lin Ruo's spiritual power swept over these people and found that the faces of these people who were being bought and sold were numb and lifeless, and their bodies obediently followed the ropes that bound them, without any resistance at all.
It seems they've completely resigned themselves to their fate!
Lin Ruo stood there quietly watching this scene. She couldn't understand the thoughts of these people who had been sold. They had finally managed to survive in the apocalypse, and yet there were still people who accepted their fate.
If all these people have given up on themselves, then even if someone saves them a hundred times, the result will still be the same. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and the unease in her heart slowly disappeared. In the apocalypse, the worst thing is to meddle in other people's business, and she must always remember that.
She stared straight ahead, and in a flash, she vanished from her spot. All sorts of horrifying things were constantly unfolding in this base.
Half an hour later, Lin Ruo had already toured the small base, which was no more than 12 kilometers in radius. Her long-standing sense of the apocalypse was completely relived here.
In such a city of sin, where almost 70% of the inhabitants are evil people and the remaining 30% have already given up resisting, Lin Ruo couldn't understand what reason it had to exist.
A glint flashed in her eyes, and she instantly teleported to the mountains outside the city. She removed all the water membranes that concealed her body, exposing herself to the air.
Originally, she only came here to kill all the high-ranking officials of the Qinglin Base so that they would not dare to target her again. Now it seems that this place is almost rotten to the core. These people are just a bunch of desperados. The evil in their hearts has even surpassed their own life and death. Even if such people do evil here, they will harm others elsewhere. It is hard to guarantee that they will not come to bother her again.
To avoid future trouble, she decided to try another method.
While her thoughts were still churning, a number of mutated animals were already approaching her.
As soon as she appeared in the forest, she immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding mutated plants and animals. Although the mutated plants were afraid of the plant-suppressing powder on her body and did not attack her, the surrounding mutated animals were unwilling to give up this opportunity to replenish their energy and pounced on her fiercely.
With a thought, Lin Ruo conjured over a dozen massive ice blades, each ten meters long, in the surrounding air. The ice blades spun in the air before slashing at the mutated animals that were lunging at them. Under the hazy moonlight, the blade shadows were numerous. Although Lin Ruo did not wield these ice blades herself, she controlled them with her mental power. The seemingly chaotic blade shadows concealed profound sword techniques.
Each swing of his blade took the life of a mutated beast, and the surrounding mutated plants were not spared either. One after another, the huge mutated trees fell down quickly, and the dozen or so mutated beasts that came over were all dealt with by Lin Ruo in a few seconds.
With a thought, Lin Ruo stored the corpses of the mutated plants and animals into his spatial storage. He would dig out the crystal cores later when he returned.
The remaining mutated beasts hidden in the dark forest all slowly moved backward. Seeing that Lin Ruo had no intention of pursuing them, they turned around and ran away quickly.
She didn't chase after them; these were all level 2 or 3 mutated beasts, and she wouldn't have bothered to catch them if they hadn't provoked her.
Having resolved these matters, she looked towards the direction of the Qinglin Base, then rushed forward rapidly, shooting out like a streak of black light.
