Willow's prediction was wrong.
Base No. 1 was indeed besieged by mutated plants and insect tides for two days, but on the third day, a beautiful and cold woman was invited by Yang Huatong to the city wall. The psychics who seemed helpless standing on the wall immediately dispersed and saluted each other respectfully.
"Who is that person?" Jiang Jingbo had never seen Yang Huatong treat someone so attentively. He smiled particularly brightly at the woman, nodded and bowed, keeping a very humble attitude. Being used to his authority in giving orders and having the final say, how could Jiang Jingbo not notice something strange? He understood that this woman must be the one who led Base No. 1 to use biological warfare to deal with the zombie tide.
"Lin, Dan!" Liu Ye said gritting her teeth while holding up the telescope.
"Who is Lin Dan?" Jiang Jingbo was still puzzled when he saw the woman leap onto the wall regardless of the danger and then was swept down by the mutant plants.
"Damn, I thought this guy was a big shot! But turns out he's just a squishy guy who can't survive more than ten seconds!" A psychic laughed with glee, and then he was choked by the strange sight in front of him and coughed repeatedly, horrified. Thick smoke came out from where the woman fell, dispersing all the killer bees. Mutated spiders as big as tires crawled quickly among the leaves and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The endless green ocean gradually turned yellow, revealing the figure of the woman again. She was holding a thick vine in her hand and crushed it with just a slight squeeze. Then she raised her head and spoke a few words to Yang Huatong on the city wall.
Several green water balls were floating above her head. The more dead mutant plants there were, the larger the water balls became. With a slight wave of her hand, she poured the water balls into a huge drinking bottle. There is no doubt that she is a water-based mutant, and the growth and decline of the mutated plants are definitely related to her. A raise of the hand can decide life or death. Even if that life and death only happens to plants, it is enough to make Jiang Jingbo feel cold all over. Think about it from another angle. What would happen if she could not only extract plant juice but also human blood?
A blood mist instantly exploded in Jiang Jingbo's mind. Before he could come to his senses, he heard heavy breathing coming from all around him.
The mutated plants and insect swarms have been dealt with, and the only thing left to do is clean up the battlefield. Eighteen days of siege, eighteen days of strangulation, how many zombies died under the city walls? Several fire-type psychics burned all the dead branches, leaves, corpses and body parts, revealing the scene on the ground. A dazzling starlight shone under the scorching sun, with red, yellow, orange, green, blue, purple and all kinds of colors, colorful! Those were countless crystal cores announcing their existence with bright lights.
Even though they were separated by the Canglan River, Jiang Jingbo and others were almost blinded by the dazzle. After a fierce battle, Base No. 1 not only survived the destruction, but also possessed countless high-level crystal cores. With them, how many masters can Yang Huatong cultivate and how many talented people can he recruit?
Jiang Jingbo didn't even dare to imagine how bright the future of Base No. 1 would be. He stared at the crystal cores scattered all over the ground, and his eyes slowly turned red!
"Boss, there are so many crystal cores! Even a truck can't fit them all!" said a psychic holding his breath.
"Base No. 1 has not been destroyed at all, and there weren't even huge casualties! If I hadn't left, I would have had a share of those crystal cores. There would always be a few sacks for each person!" Seeing the psychics of Base No. 1 loading piles of crystal cores into trucks and transporting them away, these traitors were jealous to the point of going crazy.
"Boss, let's go and grab the crystal cores while they're still not able to recover! We're all people with special abilities, and our combat power is much stronger than theirs!" Someone shouted, and everyone responded immediately.
Jiang Jingbo suppressed his impulsiveness and scolded, "Where do you think those insect swarms came from? Did God take pity on Yang Huatong and send them to save him? After watching for eighteen days, don't you understand? Those purple smoke can attract nearby mutant insects. If we dare to rob them, they will dare to use the smoke on us. If you don't want to be sucked into a mummy by killer bees, you better be honest!"
Everyone's breath was held, and they dared not move at all. Thinking of the zombies being strangled by the swarm of insects, they felt a chill in their hearts.
"With so many crystal cores, could they all be given to them?" Liu Ye said slowly.
Jiang Jingbo looked back at her, his tone cold: "What are you going to do? Go rob? Facing the insect swarm and mutant plants, how can you deal with it? Base No. 1 can even wipe out a million zombies, but it can't deal with a few thousand of us?"
Liu Ye gritted her teeth, unable to utter a word in rebuttal. She could never have imagined that this doomed hopeless battle would end with Base No. 1's great victory. Then what about her embarrassment and despair in her previous life? Yes, it was all because of Lin Dan. She changed everything! She shouldn't be so powerful!
Liu Ye picked up the telescope and looked towards the other side with murderous intent.
Jiang Jingbo looked at her deeply, his heart was burning with pain, but he had to suppress it. Although everyone considered his face and did not say anything to complain, he would not mistake the dissatisfaction and greed in their eyes. If he had not believed Liu Ye's so-called "prophecy" and left with a large army, they would have been able to divide up the mountains of crystal cores. Their strength is already strong. With these high-level crystal cores, they can be promoted to level five, level six, or even level seven in less than half a month and become the top figures of the pyramid.
It was he who ruined everyone's chance to become stronger and put them in a dilemma. It is definitely not possible to go back. Although Yang Huatong advocates saving all survivors, he is not a saint who would take in a group of ungrateful people. If they go to join other forces, with the precedent of him leading his men to flee and betraying his comrades, which base would dare to open its doors to them?
Unable to advance or retreat, the world is so big that Jiang Jingbo couldn't find where to go for a while. He raised his hand to block the light coming from the other side of the river, feeling anxious. His subordinates were holding telescopes, breathing heavily, looking at the inexhaustible treasures.
How good would it be if you hadn't left? This thought suddenly occurred to everyone.
A superpower threw the telescope at Liu Ye and cursed, "What kind of prophecy is that? It's all bullshit! Was Base No. 1 destroyed? No! Boss, you've been fooled by this woman!"
"Yeah! If it weren't for her, could we have left? Boss, I suspect she was deliberately trying to trick you!" Everyone couldn't get angry at Jiang Jingbo, so they could only direct their anger at Liu Ye.
Liu Ye's spine was almost broken and she fell to the ground in pain. Jiang Jingbo calmed down the brothers, then took her into the inner room. Without saying a word, he slapped her hard...
…………
Lin Dan had no idea what Liu Ye had encountered, nor was she interested. She worked until late at night to treat all the injured. Although she was alone and weak, the medicines she prepared saved many lives.
"Here is the prescription. You can send someone to collect the herbs and then prepare it. But I have to state in advance that the effect of the hand-prepared medicine is definitely not as good as the one I extract with my supernatural powers." Lin Dan handed a stack of prescriptions to Yang Huatong.
Yang Huatong had never expected her to be so generous, and his eyes couldn't help but feel sour. "I know," he said hoarsely, "the effect of the refined liquid medicine is definitely better than the roughly processed one. We won't misunderstand your intentions. There are too many injured people, and the doctors are simply too busy. These medicines can save many people."
"That's right. In the future you can prepare hemostatic drugs, wound medicines, antidotes, etc. by yourselves, and then distribute them to everyone. This can reduce a lot of unnecessary casualties." Lin Dan nodded.
"These prescriptions are all provided by you. We will send you 300 high-level crystal cores every month, and provide you with..."
Before Yang Huatong could finish his words of gratitude, he was interrupted by Lin Dan: "No need, you sell crudely processed medicines, and I sell more effective essences. Our interests do not conflict."
Yang Huatong wanted to persuade him again, but a young woman came over holding a little boy of two or three years old and said hesitantly, "Excuse me, are you Doctor Lin Danlin?"
"I am." Lin Dan immediately held the little boy's wrist, carefully felt his pulse, and said, "Hydrocephalus?"
The young woman originally came just to ask and did not hold out much hope. But when she saw that Lin Dan had diagnosed her son's illness just by casually touching his little hand, she could not help but be overjoyed: "Yes, it's hydrocephalus! There is no doctor in the base who can treat it. Please help me! Here is a bag of rice. I'll give it all to you." The young woman knew that in the eyes of a strong man like Lin Dan, a bag of rice was nothing at all, but this was all the property she could afford.
"Doesn't hydrocephalus require surgery? How about I help you read a broadcast and find a neurosurgeon in the base?" Yang Huatong was afraid that Lin Dan would be embarrassed, so he quickly spoke up to help. After all, Chinese medicine cannot compare to Western medicine, which can cure all diseases.
The young woman nodded with red eyes, but Lin Dan took the child and said bluntly: "His hydrocephalus is already very serious, and he can't wait for surgery. Don't worry, I can treat him." She walked into the medical tent with the child in her arms and instructed Luo Yuyan, who was acting as a nurse: "I'll write a prescription, and you go and find the medicine for me."
"Okay, Sister Lin!" Luo Yuyan immediately straightened her chest.
Lin Dan quickly wrote down a prescription and handed it to Luo Yuyan. Fortunately, Luo Yuyan knew a lot of wood-type mutants, and she pieced the herbs together quickly. Lin Dan wrapped them into water balls according to a certain proportion, heated them with vibrations, and slowly introduced them into the little boy's abdomen. He then ground the remaining herbs into powder and poured it into his nostrils.
Two hours later, the little boy coughed twice, slowly woke up, raised his head, and a lot of water flowed out of his nostrils. He said in a baby voice: "Mom, the baby is not good. The baby has a runny nose."
"Good baby, you don't have a runny nose. You were sick, but you're fine now." The young woman hugged her child and cried loudly. She was really terrified these days. No one could understand the pain of watching their child die without being able to do anything unless they had experienced it themselves.
The scene of the mother and son relying on each other made everyone's eyes tear up. Yang Huatong had never expected that Lin Danlian could cure such a complicated disease, and the effect was so quick. He was stunned on the spot.
Lin Dan packed up the medicine box with the help of Nie Ting and said tiredly, "Except for external injuries, I can also treat other diseases. You can tell the news to those who need it. I live at No. 23 Jingzi Hutong, Xicheng District. It doesn't cost much to see me. One hundred primary crystal cores per person will be enough."
Yang Huatong burst into tears and waved her hands, saying, "Lin Dan, we can't let you suffer like this. What's the difference between taking one hundred primary crystal cores and not taking them? Don't you want to live your life?"
"One hundred crystal cores. The price will not change." Lin Dan did not explain much. Just as he was about to put the medicine box on his back, Nie Ting snatched it away first. He urged coldly, "Go back, you have been in the medical area for more than twenty hours."
Lin Dan nodded and said yes. He walked to the door and seemed to remember something. He turned back and handed a rectangular glass box and a note to Yang Huatong, saying carefully: "This is my gift to the doctor. Please make sure you give it to him before dawn."
