Chapter 409 She has to go
Meng Shiwan drove her RV to the laboratory. Tao Yarong and the others were there, examining a row of power-enhancing liquids.
Chen Bolang smiled and said, "It has been tested. The effect is similar to the previous ability enhancement fluid in the base. It is also pure enough, has no side effects, and is very safe for human experiments. There is absolutely no problem."
Meng Shiwan walked in, and everyone greeted her.
"Base Commander."
"The base commander has arrived."
Meng Shiwan stepped forward, picked up one and looked at it. On the surface, it seemed no different from the one given by the system.
"How was the result?"
Chen Bolang said, "Very good, very successful. It was thanks to the experimental data from the previous Zeus base that it was able to be produced in such a short time."
Meng Shiwan nodded, "Very good. After testing for a period of time, if there are no problems, we will start mass production. All the crystal cores in the base will be put into the production of the ability enhancement fluid."
Tao Yarong nodded, "Okay, base commander."
Meng Shiwan glanced at them and said, "I'll be away for a while, so I'll leave the base to you."
With Ye Lichuan in charge, everything is arranged in an orderly manner, and she feels very reassured.
Tao Yarong nodded, "Okay, base commander, where are you going?"
Meng Shiwan did not answer her question, but remained silent for a moment before saying, "If I don't come back, Dawn Base will follow the orders of Seed Base and do its best to maximize the use of this land, leaving some hope for humanity."
Her words stunned everyone present.
What does it mean to not be able to come back?
The base commander is the most capable person; how could he possibly not be able to come back?
Sai Xishi grabbed Meng Shiwan's arm. "Wanwan, what nonsense are you talking about? Where are you going? How come you can't come back? You're not going. You're not allowed to go out. Our Dawn Base is so good and so powerful. You're just staying in the base doing nothing. Our Dawn Base is the most powerful base. What are you going out for? You're not allowed to go out."
Tao Yarong asked nervously, "Base Commander, what do you mean by this?"
From the moment she met Meng Shiwan, she always thought that Meng Shiwan was an incredibly capable person. It seemed that there was nothing that Meng Shiwan couldn't solve, and no enemy that Meng Shiwan couldn't kill.
Meng Shiwan has always been an exceptionally strong presence throughout her journey.
This was the first time Tao Yarong had heard Meng Shiwan say such a thing. Where were they going? Even someone as powerful as Meng Shiwan was so insecure?
Meng Shiwan forced a smile. "It's nothing, I was just saying. I'm leaving now."
If she wanted, she could stay at Dawn Base indefinitely and watch it grow stronger.
If she wanted, she could prevent the apocalypse from ending; with the system, she could become the queen of this world.
But she didn't want to.
What she wanted has always been very simple.
Before the apocalypse arrives, she wants to travel in her RV, either around the country or around the world.
In her previous life, all she wanted for the past three years was to survive.
In this life, before knowing the truth, all she wanted was to live a good life with Taxue.
But things kept pushing her forward. Meng Qingyue's dying words about the apocalypse being a trap forced her to form a team.
Later, in order to have the strength to deal with the uncertain future and enemies, she had to build a base.
She didn't want to rule over this broken and dilapidated world.
She wanted to see that wonderful world: the neon lights of the city, the wind in the wilderness, the green grasslands, the golden mountains under the sun, the colorful aurora borealis, and the penguins of Antarctica.
She wasn't entirely confident she would return from this trip to the Chuangyuan Base.
She only relied on her newly acquired control-type superpower as her confidence to try her luck at the Creation Base.
However, at the Chuangyuan Base, the old man Xiao, who is suspected of having lived two lives, has been accumulating power over the years and wants to capture her alive.
It wouldn't be an easy task for her to confront the other party head-on on her own.
Meng Shiwan wasn't sure if she would come back alive, so she had some things to explain in advance.
Just as Meng Shiwan turned to leave, Sai Xishi grabbed her tightly, saying, "I'll go with you. You have to take me with you this time. If anything happens, I'll protect you."
Meng Shiwan frowned. "There's no need."
Sai Xishi wouldn't let go, saying, "You must take me with you, or you can kill me and I won't let you leave."
Tao Yarong stepped forward. "Sister, take me with you. You gave me my life. We can rush ahead of you."
Lei Zhe also said, "Yes, take me with you. No matter where you go, you must take me with you this time. We will fight side by side again."
"Take us with you."
"We stand in front of you; the base cannot function without you."
Meng Shiwan looked at them and shook her head, "No need."
Sai Xishi clung to Meng Shiwan's sleeve, her face stubborn and her eyes brimming with tears.
It was as if she was afraid that if she let go, Meng Shiwan would never come back.
Meng Shiwan sighed helplessly, "Alright, Sai Xishi will come with me. The rest of you, keep an eye on the base."
Tao Yarong panicked, "Sister..."
Meng Shiwan led Sai Xishi outside, saying, "Bringing too many people is just a burden; I might die even faster."
Sai Xishi sat in the passenger seat and asked, "Wanwan, where are we going?"
Meng Shiwan drove the RV "to the Chuangyuan Base".
Sai Xishi pinched her small, single-eyelid eyes and said, "That base that used to always steal your things, it was pretty bad."
The two of them drove slowly along the road, surrounded by pure white snow.
Buildings, roads, and ditches were all covered by heavy snow, with only some tall buildings vaguely visible with snow and ice clinging to them.
The world seems to have suddenly lost all its color, leaving only a blank white expanse.
Dawn Base, like a green gem embedded in a white world, stands out dazzlingly.
The ice and snow on the ground were frozen solid, making it easy for vehicles to slip. They didn't drive fast and took turns driving.
The driver's cab was piled with all sorts of snacks, and the two of them chatted like little mice, squeaking and squeaking.
This really does look like they're on vacation.
Sai Xishi asked, "Is that Chuangyuan Base dangerous?"
Meng Shiwan nodded, "It's very dangerous. They've been trying to get rid of me for a long time."
Sai Xishi couldn't understand, "It's so dangerous, why should we go? We can call on the superhumans to go and kill them. We have crops and superhuman enhancement fluid. With just one order, there are plenty of superhumans willing to risk their lives to flatten the Chuangyuan Base."
Meng Shiwan laughed and said, "No, the Chuangyuan Base also has what I want."
Sai Xishi was puzzled, "Our Dawn Base is the richest, what else do you have that you can only get at the Creation Base?"
Meng Shiwan thought for a moment, "I'm not sure, it could be news, or it could be something else."
Meng Qingyue led her to the Chuangyuan Base, which might be a crucial part of ending the apocalypse, and she had to go.
