The scene in this room is a common sight in this reception area. These superhumans who come to trade claim to be there to make a deal, but many of them actually come with the intention of requesting support, hoping to get help from the B City base for free.
Although Ye Lin and his group wanted to help more people, the situation at the B City base was not optimistic. They already had many burdens on their shoulders, and now they couldn't let their own people starve to death just to help these "outsiders".
So, although Ye Lin was reluctant and unwilling, he had no choice but to refuse many people.
This refusal made the ability users from other bases realize the seriousness of the situation. Now that even the official bases don't have the resources to help others, wouldn't staying in other bases be tantamount to courting death?
As a result, more and more superhumans from outside the city joined the B City base, and very few of them managed to stay true to their original intentions and return to their own base.
But what fate awaits these superhumans who hold fast to their principles? That remains to be seen.
The B City base sees a lot of people coming and going every day, and no one cares whether the departed superhumans can return to their original base.
...
In the boundless expanse of pure white, a figure floats above the snow.
Lin Ruo's spiritual power continued to penetrate deeper into the sea beneath his feet. Beneath this snow was the frozen ocean. Underneath the thick ice layer, the number of low-level mutated sea beasts was surprisingly large. Hundreds of meters deep, they were swaying their tails and swimming freely, appearing quite leisurely.
They seemed completely unaffected by the blizzard, continuing their lives as usual.
The acid rain that lasted for several days seemed to have only caused irreversible damage to creatures on the ground. The acid rain that fell into the sea was diluted by so much seawater that its acidity was greatly reduced. It only corroded some of the surface flesh of these mutated sea monsters and did not have much of an impact on them.
These mutated sea creatures are highly adaptable, and with their powerful regenerative abilities, their previously corroded flesh has long since been restored to its original state, and they have also adapted to the slightly acidic seawater.
Thinking of this, Lin Ruo couldn't help but sigh. The adaptability of these mutated creatures was truly remarkable. Presumably, when the acid rain fell before, if it hadn't been so corrosive, the mutated plants and animals on the land would have been able to adapt.
Unfortunately, the acid rain did not leave any way for the mutated plants and animals on the shore to survive.
She swept her hand through the air, and a blue light appeared. Lin Ruo's entire body was enveloped in a layer of water film. The next second, her figure disappeared without leaving any trace on the snow-white snow, as if no one had ever been there.
Lin Ruo teleported into the sea. The ice on the sea was now three meters thick, and there was also a thick layer of snow on top, which was more than ten meters high. The blizzard had only lasted for two months, and the snow was already this thick.
In this seawater, Lin Ruo was enveloped in blue light, and the surrounding water currents continuously pushed Lin Ruo's water film downwards.
Lin Ruo's water-based superpowers were incredibly powerful in the seawater; within minutes, she had already descended more than 300 meters.
The number of mutated sea beasts around her was increasing. Lin Ruo had already entered the area where these low-level sea beasts lived. Lin Ruo was not in a hurry to capture these sea beasts. Her target was the big one below.
She had stockpiled a lot of these level 1 and 2 mutated sea beasts when they came ashore. The corpses in the static space were still not cleared out. Taking them back would just take up space, so it was better to let them develop further.
She manipulated the water current to continue propelling her downwards. The surrounding sea was pitch black, and the water film, under the increasingly powerful water pressure, did not deform at all. The surface swayed lightly in the water, yet it was exceptionally resilient.
Lin Ruo swam quietly past these enormous mutated sea beasts, surrounded only by the sound of flowing water. In this environment, her heart grew calmer and calmer.
As she descended further, the mutated sea monsters around her grew larger and larger. A mutated ray, 30 meters long, swam past her quickly, creating a powerful current that struck Lin Ruo's water film. The water film dented slightly before bouncing back, easily dissipating the force.
It wasn't until Lin Ruo descended back to the depth where she had encountered the mutated megalodon that she changed the direction of the surrounding current, which propelled her to swim around. There was no light in the sea below, and she had to rely entirely on her mental power to explore.
The density of mutated sea monsters below had decreased significantly. Lin Ruo manipulated the water flow, pushing herself dozens of kilometers away before finally discovering a level 5 mutated sea monster in a coral sea.
This is a mutated humpback whale. When Lin Ruo's mental energy detected this resting humpback whale, he couldn't help but exclaim, "What a huge piece of meat! Enough to eat for a long time!"
Before the apocalypse, humpback whales were already incredibly long and heavy, but now they have grown into enormous creatures, floating like small mountains above the Coral Sea in the ocean thousands of meters deep.
Its nearly 200-meter length and weight of over 100 tons made it the perfect bait to lure Lin Ruo into hunting it.
If this whale could know what Lin Ruo was thinking, it would definitely roar at her, "Listen to this! Is that even human language?! And you call that seduction?!"
It went through all that trouble to grow this big just so she could catch it and use it as food for her pets?!
But at this moment, the humpback whale was unaware of Lin Ruo's presence and was still enjoying its rest with its eyes closed.
Lin Ruo's goal for going to sea this time was very clear: to observe the effects of the previous acid rain on these mutated sea beasts, to take some seawater back for research, and to hunt a few more level-five mutated sea beasts to improve the diet of the big eaters at home.
The first two goals have been achieved, and now only the last one remains to be completed.
The humpback whale in front of her perfectly met Lin Ruo's requirements. She manipulated the water flow to move forward quickly. When Lin Ruo was within two kilometers of the whale, her spatial domain immediately unfolded, completely enveloping the whale within its range.
With a thought from Lin Ruo, the crystal core in the humpback whale's brain was easily extracted by spatial energy. The humpback whale's body stiffened, and then its massive body continued to fall into the deep sea. This huge mutated sea beast, which had struggled for more than three years in the apocalypse, died silently.
She swiftly stored the whale's carcass and crystal core into her spatial storage, and breathed a sigh of relief. At least she hadn't returned empty-handed this time.
