Chapter 222: End of the World 28



All those who had disloyal intentions were taken away by Jiang Jingbo, and the people who remained in Base No. 1 were more united than ever before. They cleaned up the battlefield and collected the crystal cores in an orderly manner, and there was no case of hiding or escaping. Base No. 1 has Dr. Xiao, the most powerful scientist in China, and Lin Dan, who has all kinds of tricks. Only a fool would leave. With them around, the future development of Base No. 1 will definitely be good.

If other bases encountered a zombie tide of hundreds of thousands or even millions, they probably would not be able to survive even a day. But Base No. 1 lasted for eighteen days without being breached. It was simply a miracle.

The foreign psychics who had originally come for Dr. Xiao turned back after receiving the news that Base No. 1 was surrounded by a tide of zombies. They thought that within a few days, Base No. 1 would surely become a ruin, so instead of running there to die, it would be better to watch from afar.

Yang Huatong also sent distress signals to several other major bases, but was rejected without exception. The end of the world is so cruel. Why should we sacrifice the already scarce human population for the survival of a city or a place? Everyone should mind their own business and not meddle in other people's affairs.

This indifference chilled Yang Huatong's heart, but now, he felt fortunate for those people's rejection. No one came to reinforce, so many crystal cores were all spoils of Base No. 1. Moreover, the Zombie King had extremely strong appeal, and most of the zombies he summoned were above level three. He looked down on the little zombies below level three, and they were not even qualified to be cannon fodder. Thanks to his domineering nature, Yang Huatong was able to gather so many high-level crystal cores at one time.

What does it mean to get rich overnight? That's it! Yang Huatong stood on a pile of shining crystal cores and laughed heartily.

Completely different from the psychics who were scrambling to collect crystal cores, Lin Dan was collecting the juice of mutant plants the entire time. Her bodyguard Nie Ting was always by her side and was not dazzled by the crystal cores.

Yang Huatong looked at the two people's backs and sighed, "Lin Dan is different from us ordinary people. His realm is too high!"

"Commander, do you remember? We were planning to shoot Sister Lin at that time." A soldier reminded fearfully.

“Cough, cough, cough, cough.” Yang Huatong responded with a startling cough. “Stop talking.” He held the soldier’s shoulder tightly and whispered, “After collecting the spoils, you guys will accompany me to apologize to Lin Dan. Damn it, it’s a good thing you guys don’t shoot well, otherwise none of us would have survived!”

"I must apologize. I don't want my spoils this time. I'll give them all to Sister Lin. Without her, there wouldn't be Base No. 1 today." Several soldiers sighed and were terrified.

After Lin Dan collected all the sap from the mutant plants, she was about to leave when a handsome young man suddenly ran over and said hesitantly, "Sister Lin, let me help you fill these jars."

Lin Dan frowned and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

The young man raised his head, revealing his neck which still had a trace of blood, and explained: "Sister Lin, I am the space-based psychic you kidnapped. I'm sorry, I misunderstood you at that time, I apologize to you. You still have some porcelain bottles stored in my space, I didn't dare to touch any of them, do you want to take them out and count them?"

Lin Dan patted his forehead and suddenly realized.

The young man laughed happily and added hastily, "Sister Lin, if you need to transport things in the future, just come to me. I have reserved four-fifths of the space just for you."

"Then help me transport these jars back to Xicheng District." Lin Dan said, pointing to several large jars at his feet.

"Okay!" The young man waved his hand and put the jar into the space with a happy expression.

Lin Dan took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket and said, "I was so anxious at the time that I hurt you. This is the wound medicine I made myself, please apply it."

The boy did not suspect anything and immediately opened the porcelain bottle and smeared the green ointment on his neck. His companion stood not far away, watching him talking to Lin Dan with envy, and then showed a surprised expression. The wound on the boy's neck healed so quickly that it disappeared in an instant, without even leaving a pink scar.

The young man seemed to have sensed something, touched his smooth neck, and said in shock: "Sister Lin, what medicine did you give me? Why is it so effective so quickly?" There are also people with healing abilities in the base, but their number is extremely small. They are only responsible for rescuing seriously injured and dying people. How could they care about ordinary wounded people? Even so, saving one person would use up all their special powers, and they would need to rest for 24 hours to recover, so their power would be very limited.

Over time, people with healing abilities went from being the sought-after ones to being useless. Their work efficiency is too low and they cannot bear the responsibility of saviors at all, not to mention that their special powers cannot eliminate the zombie virus.

The young man kept stroking his intact neck and said excitedly: "Sister Lin, do you still have this kind of medicine? There are many wounded people lying in the tent area, and the healing psychics and doctors can't save them at all."

"Really? Then I'll go over and take a look." Lin Dan walked towards the tent area without thinking. Curing illnesses and saving lives seemed to have become an instinct ingrained in her bones.

"Thank you, Sister Lin! Sister Lin, can I give this bottle of medicine to my good brother? His brother was seriously injured and is now lying in the tent waiting for treatment." The boy said, pointing to a boy not far away. The boy twisted his fingers, looking panic-stricken.

"Okay, I'll check his brother's injuries first." Lin Dan quickened his pace.

The young man was overjoyed, and all his friends gathered around and looked at Lin Dan with admiration. The group walked very fast, and countless crystal cores under their feet made a creaking sound.

Yang Huatong noticed that Lin Dan was about to leave, and immediately waved his hand and said, "Let's go and take a look."

Below the city wall is the tent area, where the seriously injured are accommodated. Several doctors and healing ability users shuttled between tents, saving one but ignoring another, and they were simply too busy to handle everything.

"Sister Lin, Tiaotiao's brother is lying in here." The young man actively led the way.

The boy named Tiaotiao opened the curtain and choked up, "Sister Lin, look at my brother. He looks like he's dying. He was shot because he was trying to save me."

The tent was filled with a strong smell of blood. Two rows of wounded soldiers were lying on the ground, breathing more than they breathed in, and it looked like they were about to die. But there are many people who are more seriously injured than them, but there are very few doctors and people with healing abilities, and no one has the time to treat them.

Lin Dan walked past the wounded who were struggling on the brink of death and approached a young man. Tiao Tiao carefully brushed away the young man's messy hair and placed a kiss on his forehead, with hot tears falling one by one on his eyelids. The young man seemed to sense something and his eyelashes trembled slightly, but he couldn't open his eyes no matter what. His cracked lips opened and closed, and he seemed to shout and jump.

"Brother, it's me." Tiao Tiao burst into tears as soon as he opened his mouth, with a look of extreme sorrow. The other teenagers also had red eyes and lowered their heads. They had already lost their loved ones, so they could naturally understand Tiaotiao's feelings.

Lin Dan lifted the white sheet on the young man's body and checked his injuries, only to see that his abdomen was pierced by a sharp arrow and blood was flowing out continuously. If the arrow could not be pulled out and the bleeding could not be stopped, he might not survive the night.

"Nie Ting, take this arrow out. Be careful not to hurt his blood vessels and internal organs." Lin Dan ordered immediately.

Nie Ting was stunned for a long time before shaking his head in embarrassment: "Sorry, I can only control the metal I condensed myself."

Lin Dan's eyes flashed, and then she remembered the doctor's so-called "bank card" theory. It seems that Nie Ting has not mastered the code of the gold element. She can only rely on herself to pull out the arrow. Fortunately, she was calm and her hands were even steadier. She pulled out the arrow in the blink of an eye and poured out the hemostatic and wound medicine she had prepared.

The blood spurting everywhere stopped immediately. Under the effect of the healing medicine, new granulation tissue grew out, and the originally bloody wound healed a little, appearing less serious. Lin Dan ordered methodically: "Bring the gauze over, I'll bandage him."

"Sister Lin, the gauze has not been disinfected yet." Tiaotiao said while crying and laughing.

"It's okay." Lin Dan condensed a ball of water film, wrapped the gauze to disinfect it, dehydrated and spun it dry, and then carefully wrapped it around the young man. The young man struggled to open his eyes, looked at his brother silently, then turned to Lin Dan and silently said "thank you" with his lips.

After helping the young man lie down, Lin Dan checked the wounded in the tent one by one. Fortunately, most of them had external injuries, and the hemostatic and wound medicine she prepared were more effective than stitches. All the wounded were treated in just one hour.

"What medicine is this?" Yang Huatong, who had been standing at the door for a long time, walked in slowly, his expression unable to hide his excitement.

"Hemostatics and wound medicine." Lin Dan used a water film to wash his hands clean.

"Do you know Chinese medicine?" Yang Huatong's voice began to tremble.

"I understand a little bit." Lin Dan waved his hand at Nie Ting: "Take them home and bring all the remaining medicines. There are too many injured here. I can't leave for the time being."

"Okay." Nie Ting had long been accustomed to Lin Dan's busyness. He nodded slightly and left. Yang Huatong chased after him, panting and saying, "Great! With these medicines, we can save many people! After the battlefield is cleared, I will definitely give the largest share of the spoils to Lin Dan."

Nie Ting said nothing, but he knew in his heart that the reason why Lin Dan worked so hard was not for the spoils, nor for reputation or status, but simply for the responsibility on his shoulders. Compared with her, I was so narrow-minded when I once tried to create a empire. And Liu Ye, who led the crowd to leave, was not even qualified to be compared with her.

After Nie Ting left, Lin Dan walked into a nearby tent and began to treat the wounded. Her special ability is very useful. It can stop bleeding and perform blood transfusions. As long as the zombie virus has not infected the heart, she can force the poisonous blood out. Her medicine has an immediate effect and has saved the lives of countless injured people.

People kept coming after hearing the news, and looked through the door curtain with red eyes at her busy figure, and her relatives and friends who were gradually getting better.

At the same time, Jiang Jingbo and Liu Ye were standing on a skyscraper, observing the battle situation at Base No. 1 through telescopes. Their expressions gradually changed from excitement and anticipation to horror and disbelief.
