The East China base is quite far from Linruo Mountain Peak, located in the southwest.
This one-way trip was over 1,500 kilometers, but Lin Ruo didn't have much time. She continuously activated spatial folding and spatial domains. As her training time increased, her mental strength became more and more solid, and the growth rate also accelerated. Now, her superimposed teleportation can instantly move 60 kilometers.
However, such an operation consumes a lot of her supernatural power. She only teleported ten times, and her supernatural power had already dropped by 40%.
The heavy snow outside obscured the road ahead, and Lin Ruo's use of superimposed teleportation caused her to veer off course several times, but fortunately she noticed and corrected her course in time.
By the time she arrived at the East China base, her powers were almost depleted. This was the reason she eventually realized that she only used her powers to fly and no longer teleported.
The effect of this faster travel is a dramatic reduction in time; a journey that originally took more than two hours by plane can now be completed in less than an hour.
Lin Ruo's head was throbbing slightly. She dug a cave, took out the potion she had made from her spatial storage, and began to restore her powers.
The potions she made were far more effective than the superpowers produced in City C. She had previously discovered that while the potions from the City C base restored superpowers, these powers did not last long. The potions she made herself used herbs produced in her space, so their potency was several times stronger. Not only would the time to restore superpowers be shortened, but the degree of power restoration would also be increased.
Lin Ruo, her face pale, took out two potions from her spatial storage and drank them down in one gulp. Instantly, she was enveloped by two beams of light.
A dozen minutes later, Lin Ruo opened her eyes. Her powers had recovered to 90%, and her complexion had become rosy.
She immediately stood up from the ground, her spatial domain opened instantly, and then she disappeared into the cave.
The East China Base is located in F City, which is considered the central area of Z Country and a hub city, making its location important. The surrounding bases are not far from it.
Those who defected to this base were from bases far away. They assumed Lin Ruo would never expect them to come here, so they secretly cooperated with the East China base instead.
Although the East China base is located in a pivotal area, it is precisely because of this that it is neither near mountains nor the sea and has few of its own "special products". So, it is basically like the A City base in the previous life, lacking everything.
When Lin Ruo stood in the spatial rift and scanned the base with his mental power, he found that the buildings in the base did indeed exude a sense of "difficulty". The worst of the other bases that Lin Ruo had been to were houses built with stone, but this base was mostly made of adobe. Only the buildings near the center of the base were made of stone or metal.
Seeing this, she couldn't help but click her tongue. She had never imagined that a base could be so poor. It was only because it was during a blizzard that the mutated animals and plants hadn't recovered yet. Once the blizzard was over, this base might become food for those mutated animals and plants.
Lin Ruo manipulated the spatial domain, constantly traversing the base. She quickly discovered a place where many people were gathered. Since more people meant more information, she immediately changed direction and teleported towards that place.
When she arrived at this place, she realized that it was an institution similar to a trading hall. Many people were going in and out of the building, and when they came out, they were all carrying some supplies.
You could tell that the people carrying the supplies were very happy; their faces, which were red from the cold, now had a smile on them.
"Why does our base suddenly have so many more supplies? Prices have dropped quite a bit."
"Who cares about him? As long as we can buy more food, what are you complaining about?"
"I'm just curious. Didn't you see they even rebuilt the base's central building? Has our base commander struck it rich?"
"Whether we've made a fortune or not, we don't know. But our base commander is truly kind and has never forgotten us. There's snow everywhere, and if we run out of food, we won't be able to survive."
Lin Ruo stood near the institution, listening to the casual conversations of the people passing by. In just over ten minutes, she had caught up with the gist of it.
She then fell silent. There weren't many people in this base, and there were even fewer people with superpowers, less than a hundred.
She could tell that people with superpowers would definitely not want to stay in this base.
This led to a worsening situation at the base: no superhumans, no crystal cores, and no food—a vicious cycle.
Thinking about how a large amount of supplies suddenly appeared in this base, Lin Ruo could easily figure out where these supplies came from. It seemed that the person before hadn't lied to her. If this base hadn't taken on those "hot potatoes," how could it have suddenly become so wealthy?
Looking at the smiling faces of those who had exchanged their grain, she thought, "This base chief isn't so bad after all. He knows to distribute this 'ill-gotten gain' and doesn't pocket it for himself."
The next moment, she had already teleported towards the central building.
"You're being too high-profile. If you attract attention and Lin Ruo finds out, our East China base will suffer along with you."
A new central building is under construction in the heart of the East China base. The base commander looked up at the ever-growing building. Although it was impressive, he did not want it.
His face was cold and stern. There were many people standing around him. He didn't want to accept these people into the base, but he had no other choice. The base was starving, and the people in the base had to survive.
As for whether or not to offend Lin Ruo, that can only be put aside for now; we need to get through this difficult time for the base first.
“We didn’t do anything, we just repaired the living quarters. Your base doesn’t even have a decent house, how can people live here?”
"Exactly, we've already lowered our standards a lot. If it weren't for that woman Lin Ruo pursuing us so relentlessly, do you think we would have joined this godforsaken place of yours?"
"Don't complain so much. We haven't shortchanged you on any of the supplies we were supposed to pay for."
Most of these people are superhumans, and their superhuman abilities are quite high. Two metal-type superhumans and one earth-type superhuman are helping to build the central building in front.
These people are used to enjoying themselves in their own base. Even when they escaped, they brought space-type ability users with them. These supplies are now in the spaces of these space-type ability users. Now that someone has taken them in, they are still being picky.
