In the space, Yu Bai finally waited for Han Yi.
Almost at the same time, the fire outside that had devoured countless hopes was finally completely extinguished by the exhausted efforts of the survivors.
So, when Han Yi appeared in front of Yu Bai, he was soaked, his clothes were covered with mud and ashes, and his face was black and white, as if he had just crawled out of a chimney.
The ends of her hair were still dripping with water, mixed with rain and sweat, and a few strands of hair stuck to her forehead in a mess.
What puzzled Yu Bai the most was that his eyes were now filled with terrifying bloodshot, a mixture of fatigue and suppressed anger.
"Han Yi, what are you doing..."
Han Yi took a few deep breaths, his breath filled with a strong smell of fireworks spraying into the slightly cool space.
He raised his hand to wipe his face, but it only made the stains worse.
"Betrayed."
His voice was so hoarse, as if it had been rubbed with sandpaper.
"Several team members... set fire to the tents, stole most of the supplies and a truck, and fled."
Afterwards, Han Yi explained the whole story.
Yu Bai's pupils suddenly shrank!
betray!
Another betrayal!
These two words were like poisoned steel needles, piercing Yu Bai's heart fiercely, instantly evoking the memory of her previous life where she was torn apart alive!
Zhao Jia's betrayal and Zhou An'an's cruelty caused her family to be destroyed and she died tragically in the factory!
An uncontrollable rage rushed to her head, burning every part of her body and limbs!
"How dare they!"
Yu Bai stomped his feet in anger, his face flushed red with extreme anger.
“How many people are living in those tents? Don’t they know that setting fires can kill people?!”
"And supplies, that's the basis for everyone's survival! Damn beasts!"
How could Han Yi not hate it?
The anger and despair in his heart were more turbulent than anyone else's.
He had personally rescued those traitors. They treated each other like brothers on a daily basis, but at the critical moment, they turned against him and did such a heartless thing!
But he couldn't show it.
He is the captain and the backbone of all the survivors.
At such a panicked moment, if he lost control first, the entire team would be finished.
He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his surging emotions, and a trace of sadness flashed in his bloodshot eyes.
"Now is not the time to pursue these matters. Although the fire is out, almost all of everyone's clothes and bedding have been burned."
He turned his gaze to Yu Bai, with a hint of earnestness and helplessness.
"The most important thing right now is to stabilize people's hearts and find a new place to live."
"The rain is still falling overhead with no sign of stopping. The hilly area is no longer safe."
"The fire tonight was really noisy. The thick smoke and flames must have alerted the zombies nearby."
Every word Han Yi said was like a huge rock pressing on Yu Bai's heart.
She understood Han Yi's concerns.
Yes, we must find a safe shelter as soon as possible, at least until the rain stops.
"All the clothes and bedding were burned, but we can distribute new ones."
“But the food and fuel… were almost all taken away by those bastards!”
"Yu Bai, I need your help. We need a lot of food and fuel to survive the upcoming difficulties and find a new place for everyone to stay."
When he said this, his tone was full of pleading.
The survivors were now like a group of frightened birds, shivering in the cold and fear.
He must give them peace as soon as possible.
"Leave the food and fuel to me!" Yu Bai said decisively without hesitation, "I'll go get them right away!"
After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave the space with quick and decisive movements.
"etc!"
Just when Yu Bai was about to step out of the space light curtain, she seemed to be pulled suddenly by something and her steps stopped.
"Han Yi, I almost forgot something important!"
She turned around hurriedly and looked at Han Yi with burning eyes.
"I want to grind the crystal core into powder and mix it into spices to make something similar to incense sticks. Firstly, it will be convenient to carry and use, and secondly, it will be more decent to give as a gift."
This was her main purpose in looking for Han Yi in the first place. But she was distracted by what happened to Han Yi just now and almost forgot about it.
Although Han Yi was anxious, he forced himself to calm down when he heard Yu Bai mention the crystal core.
He pondered for a moment.
"Theoretically, it's feasible. The energy contained in the crystal core is gentle and powerful. If it can be evenly integrated into the spices and ignited, its energy will escape and be absorbed by the human body, which can indeed have a conditioning effect on the body."
He changed the subject and frowned slightly.
"However, the hardness of the crystal core is far greater than that of diamond. Using ordinary physical means, let alone grinding it into powder, even leaving a scratch on it would be extremely difficult."
Seeing Yu Bai's worried look, Han Yi added.
"However, this isn't unsolvable in the apocalypse. We have several power-type and special structure-type psychics in our team who can process the crystal core into the powder you desire."
"Great!" Yu Bai's brows lit up with joy, the anxiety in his eyes swept away. "Then I'll leave this matter to you! Please help me get it done as soon as possible, I'll be of great use!"
Her tone was urgent, as if she had already seen those pink crystal cores transforming into countless connections and resources to contribute to her grand plan.
"Go and comfort everyone first and stabilize the situation. Leave the supplies to me. I'll deliver them to you before dawn at the latest!"
At this moment, Yu Bai was full of confidence, as if any difficulty in front of her was just a stepping stone.
Han Yi nodded heavily, with a hint of warmth and gratitude in his eyes: "Okay! Thank you!"
There was no unnecessary courtesy, he knew now was not the time to be pretentious.
Before he finished speaking, Han Yi's figure disappeared from the space.
