An hour later, Luo Jiaojiao returned to Zhu Zhengzhong's villa. Zhu Zhengzhong was still sleeping in the bedroom upstairs, while Bi Xiaolei, the superhuman who had come to City B with her, was standing by the living room window staring out the window with a slight frown.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Bi Xiaolei looked over and saw Luo Jiaojiao with a pale and worried expression. His brows furrowed, and he immediately ran over to support Luo Jiaojiao, asking, "Jiaojiao, what's wrong?"
Luo Jiaojiao was pale from fright. She nestled in Bi Xiaolei's arms and said, "It's okay, I was just a little scared. The base chief of Qiyuan Base is indeed a remarkable person. No wonder there are so many superhumans in Qiyuan Base, yet none of them have been able to take the position of base chief."
Bi Xiaolei sighed, "Jiaojiao, I don't understand. You already have me and Zhu Zhengzhong, why do you still want to provoke this person?"
Luo Jiaojiao sighed; she didn't want to either.
She originally thought that if she could find Zhu Zhengzhong as the deputy base commander, her life would return to what it was like at the A City base, where she could have whatever she wanted and enjoy endless glory.
In reality, Zhu Zhengzhong was a deputy base commander in name only; Yang Songming had the final say on all matters at the base.
Did she really want to waste her superpower on provoking Yang Songming? Her superpower level is only level 2, which means she can only control three people whose superpower level is no higher than hers. Otherwise, she would have already gone to control the captain of the superpower team at Qiyuan Base. But he is already level 3, just like when she tried to control Yin Chuan at the A City base but failed.
"Of course I'm doing this for our future life."
"You and I are both superhumans. Upgrading our abilities requires a large number of crystal cores. With our strength, obtaining crystal cores is extremely difficult."
"I did all this for our future. I originally thought that Lao Zhu's identity would be enough to ensure we would have no worries about food and clothing, but it still fell short."
"I can't let you keep being criticized because of me. You should have your own career, and only the base commander can give us these things..."
Bi Xiaolei subconsciously disagreed with this statement, but at crucial moments, his mind would become muddled, and his love for Luo Jiaojiao would take over.
Bi Xiaolei didn't say anything, but just hugged Luo Jiaojiao tightly and buried his face in the crook of her shoulder.
Luo Jiaojiao, however, was looking out the window across the street, pondering Yang Songming's proposal from earlier that day. Perhaps she didn't necessarily need to control Yang Songming. As long as he was willing to give her what she wanted, then cooperation wouldn't be a bad thing. She didn't want to serve these old men; she preferred someone as young and strong as Bi Xiaolei.
The following evening, Luo Jiaojiao went to see Yang Songming again. This time, the two closed the door and talked in detail in the office for half an hour. When they came out, Luo Jiaojiao had a big smile on her face.
From then on, Luo Jiaojiao gained special privileges, receiving 100 Level 1 crystal cores every day for cultivation. Even Bi Xiaolei, who was by her side, benefited from this, and the two of them stayed at home every day to cultivate their supernatural abilities.
Zhu Zhengzhong, having been in a state of shock due to the previous negotiations between Yang Songming and Luo Jiaojiao, regained his senses the next day. He was initially furious, but after Yang Songming spoke with him, although he still glared at Luo Jiaojiao every time he saw her, he ultimately did not do anything excessive.
That evening, Lin Ruo finished her cultivation. The energy she had absorbed before was too volatile, and today she finally stabilized her strength.
After thinking it over, she decided to go to the base in City B to take a look. Ever since she learned about the identity of that Qi family member, she had become quite curious about the Qi family. Perhaps those who were captured would have news about the Qi family.
At this moment, Afu and the others in the fortress had all gone out hunting. She had just watered Aliu and Lao Bai with some lake water, and they were absorbing energy.
Lin Ruo took a shower and changed her clothes. "Ah Liu, I'm going to the B City base. I'll be back soon."
Ah Liu gently tapped her willow branch, and the branch spread out, enveloping the entire fortress completely with Lao Bai.
With a thought, Lin Ruo summoned water molecules around her, and she transformed into a mutated pigeon, turning and flying into the sky.
More than a month has passed since the last mudslide and marine life came ashore, and the main peak of Yanshan Mountain has begun to regain its vitality. The soil, which was originally cracked from the sun, is now much more moist and has a hint of life.
Lin Ruofei, suspended in mid-air, spread her mental energy around, paying attention to the surrounding movements. With her flying speed, she quickly reached the edge of the firebreak ten kilometers away from the B City base.
She skillfully found a spot to land, the water molecules quickly dissipated, revealing her true form. She then turned around and cast another layer of invisibility water film over herself, moving with lightning speed as she rushed towards the B City base.
At this time, the base in City B was building its outer wall. This time, the outer wall was built two kilometers away from the base. The wall was built somewhat crudely and did not waste much manpower and resources. Only earth-type ability users and metal-type ability users were present during the entire construction process.
Lin Ruo teleported through the already constructed wall, thinking to himself, "These superpowers really can be put to practical use. Earth and metal superpowers can be used as construction workers, wood superpowers can be used for farming, water superpowers can be used to draw water, and lightning superpowers can probably even generate electricity..."
The survivors inside the outer wall of the B City base were also busy at this moment. Ever since they saw those superhumans building the outer wall, they had started to build their own houses properly. With this outer wall, their living place would be safer.
Lin Ruo observed the changes in these people but didn't pay attention to them. He used his spatial domain several times to quickly teleport to the B City base.
Once inside, she quickly expanded her mental energy, and this time the range of her mental energy was much wider, making it much easier for her to find the two people.
While performing the mental scan, she kept moving around, and soon she found Han Fangli and Chen Minghang in the laboratory at the B City base.
But how come their bodies have become so thin in just two days? Aren't superhumans supposed to have very strong bodies?
She nimbly leaped over a wall, and as she landed from the air, the spatial domain unfolded again. When she reappeared, she was already in the laboratory where Han Fangli and Chen Minghang were.
When she appeared, a lab technician in a white coat was injecting Han Fangli with a drug. Lin Ruo narrowed her eyes slightly and scanned Han Fangli with her mental energy. His superpower was suppressed by the drug.
So, what was injected was a superpower drug?
