Chapter 406 No Malice
Luo Xiangchen pondered for a moment, then said seriously, "What you said is indeed very good, but aren't you afraid of me? All the bases are afraid of me after they know my abilities, and you actually want to take me in?"
Meng Shiwan shrugged. "What's there to be afraid of? Dawn Base welcomes every ability user who cares about Dawn Base, especially someone as talented as you. We welcome you to join us."
She reached out her hand again.
Luo Xiangchen asked uncertainly, "Are you really going to take me in?"
Meng Shiwan nodded.
Luo Xiangchen also extended his hand to shake hands with Meng Shiwan and said with a smile, "It's great, I finally have a place to stay. This past year has been really tough for me, and I really like the Dawn Base. I never thought I could join. Thank you, Base Chief."
Meng Shiwan turned around and said, "Tao Yarong will show him around the base and arrange a place for him to stay."
Tao Yarong was a little confused, "Base Commander, this..."
She wanted to ask if this was appropriate. Was it really necessary to leave someone with such terrifying superpowers in the base? Moreover, this person had suddenly appeared, and they hadn't even investigated where he came from or whether he was a good person. Bringing him into the base rashly might not be a good idea.
After all, quite a few people are keeping an eye on Dawn Base right now.
But then Tao Yarong thought again, something's not right. The base chief touched the other party just now and had already overwritten the other party's control-type ability.
Could it be that what she said later was already a manifestation of her control-type ability?
The base commander said that Dawn Base offers good benefits, and as long as one is loyal to the base and does not do anything detrimental to Dawn Base, he is actually controlling the other party's thinking and planting this idea in the boy's mind.
Therefore, there is no need to investigate his background or where he came from. Luo Xiangchen, after being controlled by Meng Shiwan, would not harm the powerful base.
Tao Yarong sighed inwardly. What a terrifying superpower! Unbeknownst to her, even Luo Xiangchen, who was familiar with this superpower, had fallen victim to it.
"Base commander, I'll take him to be settled in right now."
Meng Shiwan took out a spatial card and handed it to Luo Xiangchen, saying, "I kept my promise to you. Here, take this spatial card."
Luo Xiangchen accepted it, "Thank you, Base Chief."
He left with Tao Yarong, looking left and right as he went, clearly marveling at the farmland of the Dawn Base.
Tao Yarong glanced at the person next to her from time to time, wondering if this person was an idiot.
Didn't you even know that the base chief used a control-type ability on you?
It's one thing if others don't know, but that's his own special ability.
Wasn't he on guard when he came?
Luo Xiangchen turned his head and saw that Tao Yarong was still staring at him.
He gave a wry smile. "Don't look at me like that. I'm not stupid. I know the base chief used his powers on me to make me loyal to Dawn Base."
Tao Yarong asked curiously, "You're still so calm even though you know?"
Luo Xiangchen looked at Tao Yarong as if she were an idiot. "Why should I be flustered? I came here specifically to join the Dawn Base. Who wouldn't want to enjoy the good life at Dawn Base?"
If the base chief thinks that using my control abilities on me will make me more loyal to Dawn Base and put her at ease, then so be it. It's not a big deal. I never intended to harm Dawn Base; I just wanted to live a good life.
What I said before was true; other bases were afraid of my abilities and didn't dare to take me in. During the year I wandered outside, watching humanity struggle was too cruel. Only your Dawn Base was a haven of peace.
Tao Yarong was convinced.
At first, she thought this person was trying to extort her. Later, she thought this person was foolish enough to let the base chief replicate his powers and then use control powers on him without him even realizing it.
So this guy knows everything; he just wants to enjoy himself.
At first, he didn't dare to say that he wanted to join the Dawn Base, fearing that people would think he had ulterior motives. He said that he would only ask for supplies and would retreat to advance.
He was just waiting for the base commander to invite him, and he immediately agreed to join.
This isn't stupidity; this person is quite shrewd, as long as they don't have malicious intentions.
At this moment, Sai Xishi was wiping Meng Shiwan's hands. "Oh dear, that man has made your hands dirty. I think he just wants to get close to you and has ulterior motives. You shouldn't have let him join. What will I do if he takes a fancy to you?"
Meng Shiwan: ...
She realized that Sai Xishi's narcissistic tendencies had been transferred to her.
Before, Sai Xishi looked at everyone as if they were thinking about her; now, she looks at everyone as if they are thinking about Meng Shiwan.
"Come on, let's go pick some fruit in my garden."
Meng Shiwan pulled her back.
Sai Xishi found a basket and ran into the orchard to pick fruit, while Meng Shiwan sat on the lawn basking in the sun, but she was thinking about something.
During this time, she was waiting for the fourth black cube to appear, wanting to collect all the black cubes and see what would happen before planning her next move.
If Meng Qingyue leaves behind any more information, it will be beneficial for what she needs to do later.
But after waiting and waiting, there was no news of zombie kings appearing in other places, nor any news of a fourth black cube.
These days, she can only stay in the base, drinking ability-enhancing liquid to improve her strength and observing the upcoming situation.
There's been no movement from the Chuangyuan Base these past few days; I wonder what they're planning.
The Chuangyuan Base, that troublemaker, is suddenly so quiet. Meng Shiwan is always afraid that one day it will suddenly make a big fuss and splatter shit all over her face.
But things are different now.
The sudden arrival of a control-type superpower gave Meng Shiwan a lot more confidence.
She felt it was time to go to the Chuangyuan Base to check out the situation.
Ever since she learned of the existence of the Chuangyuan Base, Meng Shiwan had always wanted to visit it, but after learning that the Chuangyuan Base had been eyeing her, the idea never came up again.
Regardless, they still had to make a trip to the Creation Base, as they had more information about the apocalypse.
Perhaps we can learn more about things we don't know at the Creation Base.
I didn't go before because I lacked confidence, and I knew that Chuangyuan Base was powerful, so I didn't want to go there unnecessarily.
Things are different now. With this control-type superpower, Meng Shiwan feels that she can make her way anywhere.
"Wanwan, why are you spacing out again?" Sai Xishi walked over carrying a basket of fruit.
Meng Shiwan looked up at the sky and said, "It seems I'll be leaving for a while again."
Sai Xishi asked, "Where are we going? Will you take me with you?"
Meng Shiwan shook her head, "I'm not taking anyone this time, I'll go by myself."
Soon, she will soon come to know the truth about the apocalypse, and all of this will eventually come to an end.
What exactly is the black cube used for, and is it related to ending the apocalypse?
Now she knows the origin of the apocalypse, but how to end it remains a mystery.
It seems that the answers to these questions will be found within the Chuangyuan Base.
In this life, the apocalypse will not last ten years.
