Lin Dan settled down in Luo Yuheng's territory and chose a small Western-style building with a garden away from the crowd.
Due to the departure of Jiang Jingbo and a group of psychics, the base's defense force became very weak, and everyone was in a hurry to come and go every day, appearing to be very busy. Luo Yuyan had little ability, so naturally she had nothing to do. Whenever she had free time, she would come to the small western-style building to play with Lin Dan.
"Sister Lin, are we going to the mountains to collect herbs today?" she asked expectantly.
"Go, let's find some plant seeds today. Do you know any wood-type mutants? I would like to ask them to help me germinate the seeds." Lin Dan took out three backpacks. Nie Ting immediately came up and took the largest one. Luo Yuyan took the slightly larger one, leaving the smallest one for Lin Dan.
"I have many familiar wood-type psychics. Not only can they help you germinate the seeds, but they can also make the plants grow within an hour."
"Will plants grown with supernatural powers mutate? I'm afraid the efficacy of the medicine will be lost."
"No, plants grown with superpowers are no different from ordinary plants, and their roots and stems will be stronger and their leaves will be more luxuriant. Look at the rice and wheat we eat every day, they are ripened by wood-type superpowers. Although the polluted area of the land has expanded, our productivity has also increased. This is what we call there is always a way out. Sister Lin, whatever herbs you want to plant, just bring back the seeds and I will help you." Luo Yuyan said with a smile.
Lin Dan nodded and said, "Okay, we'll look for seeds and seedlings today." She reached to the corner of the wall, wanting to take the hoe, but Nie Ting had already walked away with the hoe on his shoulder without saying a word.
Luo Yuyan covered her mouth and giggled for a while, then whispered in Lin Dan's ear: "Sister Lin, why is he so obedient?"
"I don't know either." Lin Dan shook his head. Seeing Nie Ting pick up the hoe, shovel, knife and other tools one by one, he couldn't help but feel confused.
"Let's go, let's set off quickly." Luo Yuyan just asked out of curiosity, not expecting an answer. Perhaps because of her special powers, she particularly liked to play in the forest, but Luo Yuheng would not allow her to leave the base alone, and he did not have any extra time to accompany her, which bored her over time. But now it’s different. As long as she says she is going out with Sister Lin, Luo Yuheng will agree, because he is very confident about Lin Dan’s strength.
The three of them climbed up the mountain with familiarity. Lin Dan dug herbs as he walked, and taught Luo Yuyan and Nie Ting how to identify the varieties of herbs. He also explained the medicinal properties to them in detail. Her melodious voice echoed in the dense forest, sounding so beautiful and gentle.
Luo Yuyan was absorbed in listening without realizing it, her eyes full of admiration for Lin Dan. Nie Ting was digging herbs seriously, occasionally looking up and taking a quick look at Lin Dan. Since entering Base No. 1, Lin Dan goes up the mountain to dig herbs every day, then brings them back for refining. After that, he cooks, practices, and goes to sleep. His daily routine is simple and regular.
Before the end of the world, Nie Ting was the president of a listed company. He was accustomed to the colorful world and the life of luxury. After the end of the world, he awakened the gold-related supernatural power, and his advancement was very fast and his strength was very strong. This allowed him to quickly adapt to the cruel living environment, but he also retained his arrogant and conceited character. He fell in love with Liu Ye because she was beautiful, hot, and unpredictable, and she made him feel the pleasure of conquest.
But now, all the former glitz and glamour are gone from him, he has become a captive, but he has experienced what true peace is. Work at sunrise and rest at sunset. These few simple words contain the most simple happiness. He didn't have to think about anything, just follow Lin Dan.
"Is this ginseng?" he asked, pointing to a plant full of small red fruits.
Lin Dan immediately walked up to him, with a surprised expression: "Yes, you have a sharp eye."
Nie Ting's lips curled slightly, and he was about to pick up the hoe to dig out the ginseng, but Lin Dan had already grasped his wrist and whispered, "I'll do it, don't damage its roots. Look, it's even bearing fruit. We can ask a wood-type supernatural to help plant it when we get back."
Nie Ting nodded without saying anything. After Lin Dan let him go, he hid his hand behind his back and stroked it gently. The place was scorching hot, as if it had been burned by fire.
"So this is what ginseng looks like, so beautiful!" Luo Yuyan squatted down and observed the plant carefully, and said casually: "Sister Lin, why do you extract so much liquid medicine every day? Are you going to open a clinic? Sister Lin, you are so good at medicine, you will definitely make money if you open a clinic. Now the pharmaceutical factories have stopped production, many medicines have expired, and the hospitals have been occupied by zombies. Western medicine can't save many people, and Chinese medicine is the kingly way."
"We are planning to open a clinic," Lin Dan said in a deep voice, "but these medicines are not all for patients. You have never met Liu Ye, so you don't know that this woman is a bit weird, very lucky, and can always avoid some dangers in advance. She encouraged Jiang Jingbo to leave the base instead of seizing control of the base. There must be a reason for this. I suspect that something big will happen at Base No. 1 in the near future, so prepare some self-defense items as soon as possible."
Luo Yuyan smacked her lips and said, "Is this willow leaf really that magical?"
"Her supplies are inexhaustible, and the varieties are very complete. Don't you think it's weird?" Lin Dan dug out the ginseng carefully.
Nie Ting stood quietly by the side without saying a word.
Luo Yuyan was unwilling to let him go, and asked, "Hey, you and Liu Ye are boyfriend and girlfriend, do you know her? What secrets does she have?"
Nie Ting shook his head, feeling bitter. Of course he knew that something was wrong with Liu Ye, and he had tried hard to cover it up for her, but she had never confessed it to him, and when she encountered danger, she left him behind without any hesitation. If she had escaped alone, he would have never thought anything of it, but she took Ma Ze with her, which was really unacceptable.
Noticing that Lin Dan was staring at him, Nie Ting opened his mouth and couldn't help but tell the truth: "She seems to have the ability to predict the future."
Luo Yuyan jumped up in surprise, but Lin Dan just nodded calmly.
…………
The three returned with a full load and asked a wood-type mutant to help produce various medicinal herbs. They were busy for more than ten days and accumulated a warehouse of extracts. On this day, Lin Dan was preparing these potions again, but a sharp alarm sounded above the base, and a wave of zombies was coming!
This was an extremely difficult battle. Hundreds of thousands of zombies gathered under the city wall, each using their special powers to try to break into the fortress and eat alive the survivors inside. Their levels were all above level three. The water zombies fired water arrows to knock down the soldiers standing on the tower, while the gold and earth zombies dissolved the city walls while launching long-range attacks. They worked together, divided the work among themselves, and their goals were surprisingly clear.
It is obvious that there is something strange about this group of zombies. They are by no means a mob, but a well-trained zombie army. Where there are soldiers charging into battle, there must naturally be a commander, but who is that zombie? Does his ability to raise a legion indicate that he has awakened to self-awareness?
Such speculation was enough to scare the survivors of the entire base. Seeing a big hole being dissolved in the city wall, the gold and earth ability users rushed over and repaired it as quickly as possible. But as soon as they left, the city's defense became extremely weak, and there was even a tendency for it to be captured.
If Jiang Jingbo had not left with a large force, Base No. 1 would not have been so vulnerable. But it's too late to say anything now. Zombies don't feel tired, but humans do. If this continues, Base No. 1 will become a thing of the past in less than six hours.
"Jiang Jingbo, fuck your mother! You have killed so many people. Even if I turn into a zombie, I will not let you go!" Yang Huatong noticed that there were flashes of light on the skyscrapers opposite the Lancang River from time to time. It was Jiang Jingbo and others who were using telescopes to watch the zombie tide attacking the base. He couldn't help but curse at the top of his lungs.
There was an arrow stuck in his shoulder, which was shot by the gold-type zombie under the city wall. There were many other people who were also hit by arrows, but they did not have the gold-type supernatural power to protect their bodies. They had been dead for a long time, but there was still a determined and unyielding look on their faces. In order to protect their homes and compatriots behind them, they are willing to sacrifice their lives.
Lin Dan quickly ran up the city wall and looked down, only to see a sharp arrow shooting towards him. She was about to summon an ice wall to block, but unexpectedly a metal shield suddenly appeared in front of her, protecting her tightly. Nie Ting pulled her behind him and warned her, "Be careful."
In an environment without a large number of water molecules, Lin Dan's fighting ability was very weak, so she just hid behind Nie Ting obediently.
Nie Ting curled the corners of his lips, then activated his supernatural powers and fiercely attacked the zombies under the city wall.
"Oh no! The city wall is about to be dissolved by the zombies!" Someone shouted in despair. Nie Ting immediately ran over and condensed a thick steel plate to plug the hole. Doing so consumes a lot of his supernatural powers, so he has no energy left to fight, and this is how the vitality of humans is weakened.
Lin Dan stared at the densely packed zombies with a cold expression. She asked around and finally found a space-related psychic. She asked him to go back to the house with her and bring all the small medicine bottles over. The space-type psychic seemed very reluctant, but had to do as she asked because of the ice blade on his neck.
"It's already this late, why are you carrying porcelain bottles instead of fighting the zombies? Are you fucking sick? I have no fighting ability but I know how to fire a few shots and kill a few zombies. What are you doing? Do you think you are playing house?" The space-based psychic was so angry that he jumped up and down.
But Lin Dan ignored him and threw the small black porcelain bottles one by one in different directions. The porcelain bottle fell into the group of zombies. It was cushioned by soft flesh and blood and would not break. However, it was stimulated by Lin Dan's mental power and suddenly exploded. The purple liquid inside evaporated into clouds of smoke in an instant after coming into contact with the air.
"Who is setting off the smoke bomb?" Yang Huatong shouted, "Smoke bombs are useless! Throw the hand grenade!"
"Commander, we've run out of grenades!" a soldier said in despair.
Yang Hua was stunned, with a hint of despair in his eyes. Then, he saw Lin Dan take out more black porcelain bottles and throw them into the pile of zombies. She has no other choice, so she is struggling desperately, right? Is Base No. 1 really finished? But Dr. Xiao had just arrived and was about to start his research!
Thinking of this, Yang Huatong was shocked and immediately shouted: "Oh no, Dr. Xiao is still in the institute! Luo Yuheng, take Dr. Xiao away immediately! Quickly! There is a helicopter on the tarmac that can be used. The key is in my safe. You know the password! Even if we all die, Dr. Xiao cannot die. Do you remember it?"
"I remember. I will definitely take Dr. Xiao away safely." As soon as Luo Yuheng finished speaking, he saw Dr. Xiao slowly walk up to the top of the wall and stand beside Lin Dan.
