The rescue team was about to leave the city when Lin Ruo lightly jumped, instantly rising 10 meters into the air. Without pausing in mid-air, her body gradually began to descend.
Just as her body began to fall, a layer of ice suddenly appeared beneath her feet. She stepped on the ice, used the momentum to jump again, and the ice dissipated in the air. After repeating this several times, she finally reached the rooftop of a building more than ten stories high.
Standing on the rooftop, she looked down at the entire rescue team and quickly spotted Li Wei and others in the crowd with her sharp eyes. She raised an eyebrow, not expecting to run into acquaintances.
Then she saw Chen Yu and his teammate Baozi again. It's true that you never know where you'll meet someone. Chen Yu was wearing the clothes she had prepared, and he, Baozi, and another teammate were pulling a large cart. These were all the supplies she had prepared.
Given Li Wei and Chen Yu's skills, they'll probably join the army after joining the B City base.
The rescue team reached the edge of the city and began using heavy weapons; devastating shells exploded among the mutated animal horde.
Many mutated animals were blown to pieces, with blood and flesh flying everywhere. Lin Ruo secretly thought she was lucky that she had dodged in time.
The mutated animals that died or were injured on the ground immediately became food for other mutated animals, with large numbers of them staying behind to gnaw on the corpses.
The number of mutated animals that followed the rescue team decreased significantly, so the rescue team used this method to prevent the mutated animals from following them.
The shells were fired every so often, and fewer and fewer mutated animals followed, until finally the mutated animals' pursuit was successfully halted.
The rescue team was finally able to shake off the mutated animals and get safely down.
Lin Ruo jumped off the rooftop, using the momentum to land on the ground several times. She then stored the corpses that had not yet been eaten by the mutated animals into her spatial storage and turned to leave.
She originally came down the mountain today to find a suitable place to stay, but seeing how much Ah Fu and Ah Shou liked this place, she came over out of curiosity, never expecting to make a fortune!
She skied quickly towards the Yanshan Mountains on her skis. Along the way, she encountered many mutated animals that were foraging for food, and they chased after Lin Ruo relentlessly whenever they saw her.
Lin Ruo naturally couldn't let them go, but she was in a real hurry, so she simply used her spatial blade to cut them one by one. The speed of her skis didn't decrease at all. As soon as a figure flashed by, the mutated animals on the roadside disappeared without a trace.
Looking at the number of mutated animal corpses in the space, Lin Ruo couldn't help but sigh, "This is really a great place. I'll come here often in the future!"
More than half an hour later, she finally arrived at the location she had marked on the map earlier. It was five kilometers away from the foot of Yanshan Mountain and not far from the eastern suburbs of City B.
This place is still in the forest, but because of its low-lying location, it was once flooded during heavy rains, so the surrounding area is almost entirely composed of dead trees.
Lin Ruo found a place nearby with higher terrain, a small hill about five meters high. It was just right, so there was no need to worry about it being too high and causing a landslide, nor was there any need to worry about boulders rolling down from the mountains.
Lin Ruo skied around the area, constantly searching with his mental energy. He didn't find any trace of mutated animals within a kilometer radius, so it was a good place.
The B City base is located near the southern suburbs, and her location is neither too far nor too close to the B City base.
It was almost 2 p.m. when she found a flat spot, took out the Micro-Nest from her spatial storage, and released Afu and Ashou as well.
As soon as Afu and Ashou left the space, they hunched over and cautiously looked around. Only when they realized that they were no longer in the city center and that the crazy mutated animals were no longer by their side did they feel relieved.
"Are you hungry? Come and eat first."
Lin Ruo took out their food bowls and put mutated beast meat and fruit in each bowl.
Ah Fu and Ah Shou were indeed hungry, so they ran over and wolfed down their food without even lifting their heads.
Lin Ruo went to the micro-settlement, used the kitchen utensils there to cook a simple dish and steam rice, and ate a simple meal there.
After finishing their meal, Afu and Ashou started running around, sniffing as they went. In the end, they only found a few scattered mutated animals, indicating that there were very few mutated animals here and they didn't have to worry about them constantly bothering them.
After finishing her meal, Lin Ruo put all the kitchen utensils and tableware into her micro-storage space to clean them, and then washed Afu and Ashou's rice bowls and put them into her space.
Two hours was enough time for Afu and Ashou to search the entire area within several kilometers and confirm its safety before Lin Ruo could finally relax.
"Let's choose this spot then!" Lin Ruo slightly tilted her skateboard to the side and stopped in place. She thought this was a good spot, so she decided to choose it.
She made a mark here, put Afu, Ashou, and Weisu into her space, and then turned back to the shelter.
Most of the rescue team members in City B walked. After the rescue team completely shook off the mutated animals, they announced that they could rest for half an hour.
They had to reach the base in City B before dark.
Most modern mutant animals have night vision, while human eyes cannot see at all in the dark, so groping forward in the dark is not a wise move.
Moreover, in extremely cold weather, the temperature drops even lower at night, and these people would likely all freeze to death if they spent the night outside.
"Hang in there, everyone. We can't spend the night in the wild."
