Chapter 208 Safe House



Xie Xuan hesitated for a moment, but still said frankly: "I just dreamed the same dream I had when I first got out of the house. I was in an open space, and there was a crescent moon above my head."

Chongming remembered the dream that Xie Xuan talked about. That time, she had hallucinations and caused them a lot of trouble.

"I'm not hallucinating now." Chongming said, and then realized something. "Did you just fall asleep?"

"Yes." Xie Xuan said, "Maybe this psychic used some supernatural power on me."

Chongming asked, "How is your current physical condition? Have your two special abilities had any negative effects on your body?"

The negative impact is not a question of whether it exists or not, but a question of how much.

But Xie Xuan hasn't felt it yet. The assimilation ability dominates her body, while her devouring ability stays in her shadow.

The only problem is that her regenerative ability must be supported by the superpowers occupying her body, and after the assimilation superpower is used up, she can only rely on herself to recover slowly, which is not as convenient as her original devouring superpower.

Perhaps the next time she is on the verge of death and has exhausted the assimilation power in her body, the devouring power will return to her body again and drive out the assimilation power.

Xie Xuan has now accepted the fact that she is just a container of superpowers.

Xie Xuan briefly explained her situation to Chongming, but Chongming had no other useful advice to give her except "I understand."

After all, he currently knew that Xie Xuan was the only one who possessed both the abilities of assimilation and devouring.

After this little incident, the rest of their journey was uneventful.

The way they returned was the same way they came. Maybe it was because they had cleared all the mines on the road when they came, but they didn't encounter any areas when they returned.

On the morning of the fourth day, they were very close to the wall.

The gray-white high walls completely emerged from the mushroom forest that had withered into brown and yellow, and the new humans in the car couldn't help but shout.

This was the first time they were so close to the Human Confederation, and also the first time they were so close to the new civilization of the wasteland era.

Before this, they had rarely even heard these words from their elders, let alone had a clear concept of what was inside the wall.

Children are mostly curious about the world inside the wall, but adults are more worried.

The closer they got to the wall, the more worried they became.

Qin Feng couldn't help but walk over to Xie Xuan and whispered to her, "Where will we live after we enter the high wall?"

Xie Xuan said: "You will be in a safe house for the time being. Don't worry, your safety and living needs will be guaranteed. Once we find a better solution, we will make arrangements for you."

Qin Feng still looked a little worried. "To be honest, it doesn't matter where we go. If the laboratory needs us, we can volunteer to undergo experiments, but we just hope that our child can survive well."

Xie Xuan didn't know what Qin Feng and his men had gone through under the siege of Lost Paradise that would make them say such things. Xie Xuan said with a hint of emotion, "You don't need to do this, but we are indeed facing some difficulties. After you enter the wall, you will still only be able to move around in the safe house."

Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is much better than before."

As they were talking, they were already very close to the wall. Xie Xuan heard Chongming's voice in her ears, "We are going back inside the wall."

Xie Xuan asked: "Is there anything I can do?"

"I need you to come back." Chongming said, "You are the captain. I need you to check after entering the wall."

Although Xie Xuan didn't know how Xie Ji had completed the procedures for entering the wall, she just had to cooperate.

The RV stopped temporarily before leaving the mushroom forest. When Xie Xuan got off the car, Song Zhixian was already waiting at the door of the school bus.

Xie Xuan and Song Zhixian nodded to each other and passed each other. Xie Xuan returned to the RV which she had not been back to for several days.

Chongming was still standing at the front of the RV, Xiao Yao was sitting next to the dining table, and when Xie Xuan got in the car, both of their eyes stayed on her.

"Long time no see." Xie Xuan said.

Xiao Yao smiled and said, "It's been a long time."

Chongming said "hmm" and started the RV again.

The RV slowly drove towards the wall. The closer it got to the wall, the more it could feel the shock brought by this high wall.

And this shock will not be reduced because Xie Xuan and the others walked to this wall for the second time.

Due to Bai Ze's interference, the intelligent recognition system on the wall seemed to have not recognized the school bus towed behind their RV and opened the door directly.

The world within the wall slowly unfolds.

Xie Xuan and the others had been away for nearly a month. When they left the wall, there was still a colorful mushroom forest outside, but when they came back, there was only a withered yellow forest left.

But the scene inside the wall was no different from when they left. At a glance, there were still only factories and large-scale planting bases.

After entering the door, two logistics members from the 111 branch wearing white protective suits came to meet them. Chongming asked Xie Xuan to get out of the car to check the information.

The two men seemed to be unaware of the shabby school bus following the RV. After checking the information according to the procedure, they got into the car with Xie Xuan, took all the samples, and got off to leave.

Before leaving, he told Xie Xuan, "Please return the RV and its contents to the Development Department's rest area within twelve hours."

Xie Xuan nodded and said, "Okay, we will."

The people from the logistics department drove away nonchalantly in their car. After they left, Chongming turned and drove towards Noah Technology's safe house nearby.

Xie Xuan only then thought of a problem. In the movies, a safe house is at most a two-story building, but there are eighteen people here. Can it accommodate them?

After Xie Xuan asked this, Chongming turned his head and looked at her, as if he was a little speechless that she only thought of this question now.

"There's room for you." Chongming said concisely.

Chongming was so sure of what he said that Xie Xuan did not ask any more questions.

The RV drove on a road with almost no people for nearly half an hour before it pulled the school bus into a factory.

The factory’s sign didn’t say Noah Technology, but the gate let Chongming’s car through directly.

This is an unmanned factory that produces no one. There is not a single person in the huge factory. Chongming drove the car directly to the deepest part of the factory area and stopped at the door of a factory building.

"We're here." Chongming said and got out of the car.

Xie Xuan followed Chongming out of the car, and Xiao Yao walked at the back.

Song Zhixian also got out of the car, and the others followed one by one.

Chongming took them into the factory, which looked like a warehouse used to store goods, but the items were not very full. They were piled in the corner, and there were a few small compartments on one side.
