Chapter 86 The Mysterious Fire Base
One of the guards wanted to inform the base commander, but another stopped him and said, "Finish reading first. There might be a surprise."
After saying that, he directly took the middle-aged woman with shaking hands aside, sat down himself, and said in a high voice, "Next."
The guard had a huge smile on his face. "Name, ability, specific level, and then you can demonstrate it over there."
Xiao Yaoyao stepped forward and said, "Xiao Yaoyao, ice element, mid-level 2." After that, she walked to the side and threw an ice cone towards the black panel.
The ice cone, like Gu Wanyin's fire dragon, was immediately swallowed by the darkness without a sound.
Next.
"Lin Feng, wind element, late level two." Exclamations rang out.
"Xu Dali, strength mutation, mid-level two."
"Xu Xiaoyue, Healing Department, Level 2 Intermediate."
The crowd watching were stunned. If these five people formed a special ability team, they would definitely be among the top three in the base.
In addition to powerful offensive abilities, there is also space and the healing system that every ability team hopes to have. It's amazing.
After several people demonstrated their respective abilities, the guard standing next to the panel made an OK gesture to another person.
The two men exchanged glances and ushered Gu Wanyin and the other four aside. "Everyone, please follow us."
The guards took them to a separate room, where the door was guarded by armed guards 24 hours a day.
This is the base specially used to receive high-level psychics. It has a bar, drinks, candies and snacks, and beautiful young staff.
"Everyone, eat something first."
No one took action, and Gu Wanyin said, "Aren't we going to check? If not, just let us into the base first. We have family members inside and are very anxious."
At this time, a handsome male waiter came forward, bent down and smiled, "I need to check, please wait a moment."
After a moment, the waiter took out a black object similar to a cash register scanner from the safe behind him, walked up to Gu Wanyin, and said respectfully, "Please wait a moment, it will be ready soon."
After raising his hand to signal, he placed the scanner three centimeters away from Gu Wanyin's forehead. With a "beep", the light dot on the scanner turned green.
Next came Xiao Yaoyao, Lin Feng and others.
The whole process takes less than a minute.
"Okay, the inspection is complete, no problems."
Seeing Gu Wanyin and the others' confusion, the most astute-looking guard stepped forward and said, "This was purchased from the Northern Spark Base at great expense by our base commander. It's a high-tech product developed after the apocalypse."
Gu Wanyin frowned, "Is that the bare board outside also?"
The guard stepped forward and said, "Yes, but we usually don't use it easily. It wears out and will break after a few times."
The panel had only been used a few times. He had just checked it and found that it was severely damaged. However, since they had received so many high-level psychics this time, including a third-level dual-system psychic, he thought the base commander would not blame him.
Gu Wanyin continued to ask, "If it is used to make protective gear, wouldn't it be easy to resist the attacks of zombies?"
The knowledgeable guard glanced at the others around him, then leaned over to Gu Wanyin's ear and said mysteriously, "That panel is very expensive. Our base commander bought it at a high price just to show off. It is said that the production volume is extremely low, and the cost of using it to resist zombie attacks is too high. The key is that it can't be used on people with special abilities or places like city walls. It needs a special carrier to place it."
"I see~"
"Is the Spark Base that powerful?"
Upon hearing this, the guard simply pulled over a stool and sat down next to Gu Wanyin. "It's quite impressive, with lots of high-tech technology, and it was founded by the top two families in our country's assets, along with the Meng City government."
Gu Wanyin murmured, "Then there is Shen Qianxun's house."
The guard was still muttering, "That base is built on the high grasslands and is said to be able to accommodate 10 million people."
Seeing the other party's longing face, Gu Wanyin couldn't help but teasing, "Then why don't you go?"
The guard's eyes twitched, and he covered his mouth with his hand and whispered, "It's too far to go. Without some skills, we really can't go there. We might even die along the way. Besides, our base is pretty good. You've seen the city walls. It feels very safe."
Gu Wanyin nodded to show her understanding. With the increase in the level of zombies and the appearance of mutated plants and animals, going north is bound to be full of dangers.
He took out a handful of crystal cores from the space and handed them to the guards, "Divide them among yourselves." Then he turned and was about to leave.
The guard clenched the crystal core in his hand and stepped forward happily. "Sister, would you like to wait a little longer? We were just about to notify the base commander, and he will definitely come to pick you up in person later."
Gu Wanyin waved her hand. "No, we are quite familiar with the place. We can go in and take a look ourselves. We won't bother the base commander."
The guard did not stop them, but took out the base map and enthusiastically escorted them to the gate. Then he stuffed half of the crystal cores into his waist bag and trotted back to the reception room. He wanted to report to the base commander that a large shipment had arrived at the base.
Gu Wanyin was sitting in the passenger seat looking at the map while Lin Feng was driving beside her.
It is hoped that the base will be distributed in a fan shape and managed in zones. Each zone will have a separate manager, and the map will be clearly marked with even the manager's name.
Among them, the central area is a tightly wrapped small circle, with six gates evenly distributed around the small circle, connecting six fan-shaped areas.
Each sector area is clearly divided into different classes from the outside to the inside, namely: shantytowns, subdivided housing areas, ordinary residential areas, high-end residential areas, and inner city.
Most of the shanty towns are temporary wooden sheds and mud houses, some of which don’t even have doors or windows. There is a large wooden board on top and small wooden boards underneath. When winter comes, people will die.
A subdivided room is a room that is divided into two or more small rooms by partitioning it with a partition. Such a small room may not even have windows, so you can hear what the neighbors are doing.
Ordinary residences are basically resettlement housing before the end of the world, or general commercial housing with a reasonable layout.
The rooms in high-end residential areas are larger, and some even have large flats with one unit per floor.
As for the inner city, there was no introduction to any residential area. Gu Wanyin guessed that it should be a more upscale residential area, most likely a villa area.
Xiao Yaoyao and Lin Feng's home is located in the ordinary residential area of fan-shaped zone C.
Xiao Yaoyao looked at the map that Gu Wanyin handed over and said after a while, "Strange, according to the number of houses marked on the map, ordinary and high-end residential areas alone can fully accommodate the current population. Why are there still so many people living in shanty towns?"
Xu Dali added, "In the apocalypse, those who can afford it live in nice houses, while ordinary people without it are lucky to have a place to live. This distinction existed before the apocalypse, let alone after the apocalypse. Even if a house is empty, people will be chosen to move in."
