The black figure shot straight upwards, flying into the air, and those who rushed over could only watch as the black figure disappeared rapidly.
Lin Ruo made no attempt to conceal herself when she arrived. Many survivors saw her figure rapidly passing through the air, and the news quickly spread throughout the base. Everyone, from adults to children, knew that Lin Ruo had been there.
At this moment, everyone saw Lin Ruo fly by again, but in the opposite direction. They looked up at her until her figure got further and further away and disappeared into the boundless snow curtain before they came back to their senses and went back to doing their own things.
Ye Lin and Chen Yu, who witnessed all of this, were a beat late in their rush. Lin Ruo had clearly seen them, but she still flew away. Did she not want to see them?
When they arrived at the door, all they saw was Jiang Yue and Lin Zhong'an's corpse lying on the ground. Passing superhumans also stopped in their tracks out of curiosity.
"Ah, what a pity. Sister Ruo left so soon. I didn't even have a chance to say a word to her."
"That's just how decisive Sister Ruo is. She comes to deliver the body, and she'll definitely go back after she's done."
"But Sister Ruo's skills are really top-notch. She found the person in such a short time, less than an hour."
"Don't you even look who that is? That's Sister Ruo. So what if Lin Zhong'an is a special ability user? Sister Ruo still took care of him so quickly."
"Judging from your tone and your arrogance, it's as if you're the one who took care of them."
"That's right, Sister Ruo is my idol."
The conversations of the other ability users around them kept getting into Ye Lin and his group's ears. They remained silent, not because Lin Ruo was their idol, but because they were somewhat lost in thought.
Ye Lin and Chen Yu were wondering if they had offended Lin Ruo recently. Why did she leave immediately upon seeing them arrive?
The two looked at Jiang Yue, who was crouching down examining the body. "We haven't provoked her recently, have we?"
Jiang Yue turned his head, his face full of questions, as if he hadn't heard what they said. "What?"
The other ability users around them were all looking at them, their expressions exactly the same as Jiang Yue's as he was squatting.
Ye Lin and Chen Yu then realized what they had asked, turned around and coughed lightly, "Nothing, how did the examination go?"
Jiang Yue stood up from the ground with a smile on his face. "How could Sister Ruo have any problems with her work? I just checked, and the man still had his backpack. Sister Ruo only took his crystal core."
Chen Yu raised an eyebrow, pondering Lin Ruo's purpose in doing this, and couldn't help but ask, "She doesn't have any ethereal abilities, so what use is this person's crystal core to her?"
Jiang Yue patted the non-existent dust off his hands. Hearing this, he paused slightly, then blinked and explained without hesitation, "Sister Ruo must have her own uses."
Ye Lin and Chen Yu exchanged a glance and roughly understood why Lin Ruo had some tolerance for Jiang Yue; this person had reached the point of blind worship.
If Ye Lin and Chen Yu had approached Lin Ruo for cooperation today, Lin Ruo might have ignored them completely. But if it were Jiang Yue, Lin Zhong'an's body would have been lying here in less than an hour.
Ye Lin and Chen Yu couldn't help but wonder if they should learn from Jiang Yue.
Although Lin Ruo joining this annihilation plan was a great thing for them, they always felt that Lin Ruo's reasons were far-fetched. So, was the reason that he couldn't bear to refuse Jiang Yue?
Little did they know that these people had offended Lin Ruo in her previous life, and her actions today were merely going with the flow.
...
In the dark and cold dungeon, a figure lay motionless on the solid ground. The person lay there without any regard for the cold temperature of the ground. If it weren't for the faint rise and fall of the person's chest, people outside would probably think that the person was already dead.
The man lying on the ground was Zhu Zhengzhong, who had been captured by the B City base. His body was covered with wounds from being whipped during torture. The dungeon was already cold, and with such severe injuries, he felt the icy cold air constantly seeping into his bones and out of his body, slowly taking away his body temperature. His body was gradually becoming stiff and cold.
After he was tortured, he was left here like a rag doll. Chen Yu wanted him to taste the feeling of being on the verge of death. Only by tasting death would he be afraid of its return.
Since becoming a high-ranking official in City B before the apocalypse, Zhu Zhengzhong never imagined that he would end up like this. He was so glorious before, and now he is so destitute.
He hadn't fully revealed the specifics yet. He knew that if he did, he would surely die. The things he was guarding now were his lifesavers.
He still held a sliver of hope. He knew Lin Zhong'an had escaped, and he thought that if Lin Zhong'an found the organization, perhaps they would come and rescue him.
Just as his breathing became weaker and weaker, the dungeon door suddenly opened, and Chen Yu led two people into the cell. Zhu Zhengzhong raised his eyelids and, unsurprisingly, saw the healing ability user. A smile appeared on his lips, a smile containing a hint of smugness. These people were really ruthless when they beat him, but it wasn't because they were afraid he would die, but because they wanted the healing ability user to treat him.
Chen Yu saw Zhu Zhengzhong. While the healing ability user was treating Zhu Zhengzhong, he gave a wink to the person next to him. The space ability user who came in with him immediately took Lin Zhong'an's corpse out of the space and slammed it down next to Zhu Zhengzhong with a "bang".
