On the vast, boundless sea, a figure dressed entirely in black stood five meters above the water, holding a tablet in his hand. He used a compass to determine his location while looking at a map on the tablet, trying to ascertain his own position.
Just then, a mutated flying fish leaped out of the sea, its mouth wide open, and pounced on Lin Ruofei. Its fins on its back resembled wings, and it stirred up large water droplets, obstructing the view of the surrounding area.
Lin Ruo didn't even raise her head, still immersed in her own thoughts, her fingers still swiping on the tablet screen. She only glanced at the mutated sea beast that pounced on her when the flying fish was sliced in two by a spatial blade. Its huge body froze in mid-air, spraying out a lot of blood, before it began to fall rapidly and was taken into Lin Ruo's space.
Large amounts of blood splattered from the air onto the water below. Before the blood could even disperse, Lin Ruo spread her wings and flew out like an arrow, creating waves in the wind.
The blood that caused the arrival of countless mutated sea beasts, their struggles and battles, had nothing to do with her.
...
The fact that the B City base had occupied the M Country base was something Chen Yu couldn't hide even if he wanted to. In less than half a day, the news had spread to countries all over the world. After all, Z Country and M Country had always been the focus of attention for various countries before the apocalypse.
Now that this has happened, it's even more explosive news, and these spies buried near the base naturally have to hurry up and report it.
The Y Country base is located on the Fort Mountains surrounding the capital of Y Country, covering an area of about 200 square kilometers. All the buildings in the base are in European style and have a magnificent appearance. In particular, the huge castle at the innermost part of the base looks very similar to the ancient castle before the apocalypse. It is the residence of the queen of the Y Country base.
However, things were not peaceful inside the castle at this moment. All the high-ranking officials of the base had gathered in the castle to discuss matters.
A heavy metallic scraping sound suddenly rang out in the main hall of the castle, followed by a woman's slightly shrill voice, "What did you say! The M country base has been occupied by the Z country's B city base?!"
The high-ranking officials of the Y country base below all kept their heads down, not daring to look at the woman on the throne, fearing that she might kill them all if she got angry.
Unlike the base in Country M, the Y country base has been under her leadership since the beginning of the apocalypse. Whether it's the strength of her superpowers or her tough methods, she has won over the higher-ups completely, leaving them with no thought of resistance.
Oliveira frowned as he dragged the heavy throne back, sat down on it again, and stared intently into thought, seemingly ignoring those below him.
She had previously collaborated with Itef from the M country and had fought against him during that collaboration. She couldn't say she fully understood his abilities, but she knew just how powerful he was. If she hadn't teamed up with others that time, she probably would have died at Itef's hands long ago.
With such powerful superpowers, and so many level 5 or higher superpowered individuals at the M country base, even the crystal energy cannons couldn't do anything to them, not to mention the protective shield above their base.
How could such a powerful country be taken over by the B City base? As far as she knew, the B City base didn't even have a single Level 5 ability user. Did they develop some kind of powerful weapon?
But what kind of weapon can withstand Itef's attack? She had experienced the overwhelming swarm of insects before. Even if the B City base took over the M country base, it would definitely suffer heavy losses.
Thinking of this, her eyes lit up slightly. When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. Perhaps they could also make a profit from it.
"Where is Itef? Has he surrendered? Where is he being held?" Although Olivia had some thoughts in mind, she still wanted to ask for the details out of caution. Itef was a notorious warmonger, and if he escaped and found out that she had taken advantage of him, he probably wouldn't let it go easily.
A high-ranking official stepped forward from the crowd, stood respectfully in the center, and reported with his head bowed, "Your Majesty, according to our information, all the high-ranking officials of the M country base have been captured by the B city base, including Itef himself. Their abilities have likely been controlled, but we do not yet have any specific information about their current situation."
"Moreover, according to the information we have, it seems that Lin Ruo from Country Z is the one who is controlling those level five or above ability users."
Olivia was shocked to hear this news. So many high-level superhumans had been controlled by just one person? Even Itef was no exception? It seemed that the information she had received earlier was not exaggerated; this person was indeed extremely dangerous.
But M country has already been occupied by them. Given the geographical location of M country, won't Y country be next?
Thinking about Lin Ruo's strength, Olivia suddenly felt a headache coming on. "Does F and E know about this?"
"They should have already received the news."
Olivia thought of the base commander's special ability in Country F, and her eyes flickered slightly. "I understand, you may leave."
Several high-ranking officials lowered their heads and slowly left the room.
Olivia sat on the magnificent throne above, her hands resting on the armrests, her head slightly tilted back, her eyes half-closed, her pupils darting around in their sockets, revealing the chaos in her mind.
Just then, the terminal on her wrist lit up, and Olivia looked up to see a name she didn't want to see.
She hesitated for a few seconds before finally sighing and clicking the call button.
"Olivia, long time no see, I've missed you." A male voice came from the terminal, his tone slightly flirtatious but not annoying.
“Bill, if you’re feeling too comfortable, I don’t mind finding you something to do.”
Upon hearing Bill's flippant tone, Olivia's face immediately darkened, making her dislike for him quite explicit.
Bill chuckled on the other end, "Don't be like that. We've spent so many nights together. Now that we can't see each other, can't we at least talk on the phone to ease our longing?"
"If there's nothing important, I'm hanging up now."
Olivia instinctively resisted their past relationship, believing she shouldn't have had any hope for his character.
"No, I have important business to attend to."
Bill's flippant tone faded, replaced by a more formal one. He knew Olivia well; if he continued to act inappropriately, she would hang up the phone in the next second, and he wouldn't be able to get through to her again for almost a month.
This woman can be incredibly stubborn at times; trying to soften her heart is less effective than praying for God to intervene.
“Speak.” Olivia knew that Bill had most likely contacted her because of the matter in the United States, so she had long anticipated that Bill would change his attitude, but her tone was still unusually cold.
