Dark clouds filled the dim sky, and snowflakes fell softly from the depths of the clouds, passing through the air at an altitude of ten thousand meters, landing on Lin Ruo's hand with a "rustling" sound. The cool temperature pulled her back from her thoughts.
In the past six months, she has actually gone out quite a few times. Apart from cultivating, all she has left is her hobby of catching "mice".
Every time she goes out, she plans to visit several bases on the list. If she finds any of the high-ranking officials on the list sneaking back to the base, she will take care of them.
Over such a long period of time, she has already crossed out 80% of the base's high-ranking officials from her list, leaving only 20% still unaccounted for. These people seem determined not to return to the base.
Lin Ruo admired her for being willing to give up her hard-earned status and career, focusing solely on avoiding her without any wishful thinking. She was quite a character.
Because Lin Ruo had been searching for the bases of the superpowered teams that had stormed the mountain peaks over the past six months, those bases that had been scared away by the fighter jets from the B City base gradually relaxed. They couldn't help but feel glad that they had been cowardly back then, otherwise they really wouldn't have been able to withstand Lin Ruo's persistent "concern".
In the past six months, Lin Ruo's perceived danger has not decreased but has instead increased dramatically, even causing many to feel devastated.
This person is not only ruthless, but also holds grudges. They have never seen anyone hold a grudge to this extent. Every time she goes all the way to see if her enemy has appeared, even though the incident happened half a year ago, she still makes trouble for these people whenever she has the chance. She is so persistent that it is unbelievable. She is so stubborn that she will not let go.
They always keep their distance from such people. If they can't afford to offend them, they can't even avoid them. Who can they reason with?
This announcement was a huge surprise for the bases outside, but it was really irrelevant to Lin Ruo. She shook her sweaty hair and turned to walk towards the bathroom.
When she came out of the bathroom, Afu and the others had already returned from outside. The aura of the level 6 mutated beasts instantly enveloped the entire fortress, but they disappeared immediately upon seeing Lin Ruo.
Lin Ruo looked at the prey they had brought back. The heavy snow had been falling for a year, and the mutated beasts and plants outside had adapted well. Now, there were quite a few mutated beasts roaming outside.
However, for Afu and his companions, these mutated beasts were too low-level to be anything more than practice targets. They were only good for hunting down the mutated plants in the mutated forest.
For the past six months, their diet has consisted mainly of flesh and blood from level 5-6 mutated beasts, primarily sourced from Hengshan and the sea. These two places can be described as "abundant" in high-level mutated beasts.
Especially at the foot of Mount Heng, the mutated beasts not only level up quickly, but also reproduce rapidly, making Lin Ruo want to move now. However, considering Mount Heng's low altitude, she gave up the idea. Who knows what the next natural disaster will be? There's no need for her to risk going there.
But Lin Ruo would also go to Hengshan from time to time, just for the mutated beasts at the foot of Hengshan. For so long, the food for the few beasts at home had never been cut off.
Lin Ruo walked outside the door, then suddenly narrowed her eyes and instantly moved to A Shou's side. A Shou had significantly more blood on her than A Fu, but it wasn't because they were injured; the blood smelled strongly of human blood.
She scanned Afu and Ashou with her mental energy and found no injuries on them, so she breathed a sigh of relief. "Afu, who did you get into a conflict with on the way?"
Almost everyone in City B knows Afu and Ashou, and they are very familiar with their daily hunting activities against mutated beasts. However, those superhumans who encounter Afu and Ashou will never provoke them, let alone have a conflict with them.
Putting aside Lin Ruo behind them, just considering the strength of these two themselves, they are no match for them; going up against them would be suicide.
These people with superpowers would rather go out of their way than see Afu and Ashou, for fear of attracting their attention.
Ah Shou transformed into his smaller form and rushed to Lin Ruo's side, nudging her palm with his large black head and acting coquettishly. He also barked at Ah Liu a few times, as if he were tattling.
Ah Liu understood, and then used a willow branch to translate for Lin Ruo.
A few minutes later, Lin Ru frowned. These people didn't recognize Afu and Ashou? And they attacked them right away?
Thinking of the announcement issued by the B City base, a thought struck her: Could it be some ability users who had received advance notice and came to make the deal?
At this moment, Afu pulled off the cloth bag from under his neck and handed it to Lin Ruo. Lin Ruo took the blood-stained bag without any disgust. Inside were sixteen supernatural energy crystal cores, all of which were level 3, and there was also a level 4 colorless crystal core.
She raised an eyebrow slightly. Although half a year had passed and level 4 ability users were no longer as rare as before, this team configuration still had some strength.
She took out the space-type ability crystal core inside and probed it with her mental energy. Her pupils shrank as she saw that there were so many resources and crystal cores inside. There were hundreds of tons of food, tens of thousands of crystal cores, as well as a lot of medicines and weapons. All of these weapons were made of underground minerals and were of high quality.
Most importantly, she also found the black combat suits she had seen before in this spatial crystal core. There were probably several hundred of these suits, all packed in bags, seemingly unopened.
She took the combat suit out of her spatial storage and gently stroked it with her hand. The feel of it reminded Lin Ruo that it was the same as the black combat suit she had seen outside the Baiyu base before.
Her gaze suddenly turned cold. What was the purpose of these people coming to the B City base? If they came to exchange for goods, why did they bring so many supplies? Or were all these things exchanged from the B City base?
Her eyes were icy cold; whether it was someone coming to deliver or pick up something, it was all inextricably linked to City B.
She had suspected before that these people were related to the experiments in her previous life, but she had been busy with cultivation for the past six months and hadn't put in much effort to investigate. Now that these people had actually come to her doorstep, she naturally couldn't let them go.
"It seems this veil will be lifted soon," Lin Ruo said, putting the combat suit back into her spatial storage and turning to look towards the main peak.
