"As expected, it has to be Sister Ruo! She actually managed to cover their entire base with an ice shield."
By this time, the news had reached the B City base. Jiang Yue almost jumped up from the sofa. He was excited at first, but then his face darkened.
He was excited because Lin Ruo seemed to be stronger, but he didn't expect these people to be so shameless, constantly bothering Lin Ruo. They must have annoyed her to make her take action.
He looked at the message on his terminal, grabbed the coat next to him, quickly put it on, opened the door, and strode out of the office.
He knocked on Ye Lin's door, his voice radiating a chill.
"Enter."
When Jiang Yue walked in, he saw Ye Lin sitting behind the table, holding a terminal in his hand, with his eyes closed as if he was thinking about something.
Hearing footsteps, Ye Lin opened his eyes and saw Jiang Yue's somewhat gloomy expression. "What's wrong?"
"Shouldn't we restrain these bases and superhumans? If they keep causing trouble like this, not only will our base suffer heavy losses, but we'll also have a hard time explaining to Sister Ruo." Jiang Yue pondered for a moment before revealing the purpose of his visit.
Ye Lin scratched his eyebrow. Their base had already arrested all the superhumans who tried to break into the orchard, and had never let a single one go, but they had not pursued the matter any further.
Jiang Yue is saying this now because he knows that Lin Ruo went to Baiyu Base. Ye Lin sighed slightly. In fact, when they decided not to publicly exchange this item for the time being, they had already anticipated that these people would try to take advantage of Lin Ruo. They just didn't expect these people to be so rampant. In the end, they still annoyed Lin Ruo.
Ye Lin rubbed his temples. "It's not that we don't want to restrain them, it's just that compared to Lin Ruo, our B City base is weaker. They're not even afraid of Lin Ruo, so how can we restrain them? The most effective way is to publicly exchange these seeds, but that would only bring more trouble. You know our progress..."
Jiang Yue frowned. "But have you ever thought that Sister Ruo suffered an undeserved disaster? We all know that those stones were useless to her; they would have been better off with a few crystals. But she traded those useless things for this fruit, which saved our B City base. Now she is constantly being harassed because of this. Are we just going to stand by and do nothing?"
"If we don't take action in this situation, will she choose to trade with us again next time? Don't you know that the C City base has been secretly contacting her all along?"
Ye Lin looked at Jiang Yue with a somewhat indescribable expression. Had this man's admiration for Lin Ruo reached such a level? After speaking, it was clear that his stance was entirely from Lin Ruo's perspective.
Although he couldn't deny that Lin Ruo's actions had indeed brought life to their base, he figured she wasn't as selfless as Jiang Yue claimed. She must have had a reason for wanting the black stone; they just hadn't figured it out yet.
He took a breath. Although Jiang Yue's words were completely on Lin Ruo's side, one of them hit the nail on the head. If they stood by and did nothing this time, would they still be Lin Ruo's first choice next time?
Although this might make them seem opportunistic, it's the truth; who wouldn't want a partner who gives them a sense of security?
Thinking of the incredible supernatural shield mentioned in the previous news, although Baiyu Base is not large, only about 30 kilometers in radius, this thing can cover the entire base, and the supernatural energy it consumes is also astonishing.
Moreover, this shield can imprison the people inside the base, and it can also protect the entire base. With such strength, they really cannot push it outwards.
Ye Lin looked up at Jiang Yue, who was still somewhat agitated, and chuckled, "Go and call Chen Yu over. Let's discuss what methods we should use to curb the behavior of other bases."
Jiang Yue's eyes lit up. After saluting Ye Lin, he turned and left Ye Lin's office.
...
Amidst howling north winds, a green figure, hundreds of meters in the air, is braving the cold wind and snow, moving rapidly forward.
The branches of the willow tree completely enveloped Lin Ruo. Although a cold wind still blew through the branches and struck Lin Ruo, it was much more comfortable than the biting wind that felt like it was cutting flesh.
Lin Ruo used her mental power to reach out to Ah Liu's branches. In this kind of weather, not only did she need to constantly identify the direction to avoid deviating from the course, but she also needed to pay attention to the changes in the surrounding weather. If the wind level increased by two more levels, they should take shelter in a safe place. Under such strong winds, she could already feel that Ah Liu was having some difficulty.
Originally, A-Liu was not a species that flew in the sky. It relied on its own ability to fly into the sky. In such weather, its woven willow branches would still leak some air. This tiny leak could easily affect its flight when it was flying at high speed.
After flying for another half hour, the wind around them not only did not get weaker, but actually got stronger. The gale was so strong that it made Ah Liu's willow leaves slap against the branches.
"Ah Liu, you take the branch back, I'll do it." Lin Ruo noticed that Ah Liu's speed had slowed down, and she knew that Ah Liu was a little exhausted.
Ah Liu stopped trying to be brave and the willow branches began to shrink back rapidly. As the branches weakened, Lin Ruo used her mental energy to instantly condense the snowflakes that were falling around her, forming a layer of silver-white armor with wings on her body.
A flash of blue light appeared at Lin Ruo's fingertips, and the next moment, a layer of transparent water film appeared in front of them, shielding them from the relentless wind and snow.
She flew for another three hours in this way. After Lin Ruo took over the control of the flight, their flight speed increased dramatically. During this time, she also used space folding and teleportation to avoid the eye of the hurricane. Although the distance traveled in these two hours doubled, Lin Ruo's superpowers were also greatly depleted.
Lin Ruo's figure suddenly stopped in mid-air. Her mental power had already detected another huge whirlwind in front of her. She frowned slightly, raised her hand to look at the terminal on her wrist. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon, and it was time to take a break.
She expanded her mental energy outwards with all her might and found that the surrounding area was all flat land, with no high mountains within a dozen kilometers.
She sighed softly. With such a heavy snowstorm outside, leaving Ah Liu outside would only cause her suffering. She rapidly expanded her spatial domain, digging a huge hole two meters below the ground, and even manipulated the surrounding ice and snow to create a ventilation opening.
Immediately afterward, her figure disappeared into the air and appeared inside the cave.
