Chapter 338: The Favorite of the End Times (18)
"Qiao Xi, wake up, we're here."
Cen Chen carefully woke up the girl who was leaning on his shoulder. Qiao Xi was still a little confused when she heard his voice.
I subconsciously rubbed my eyes and sat up straight.
Arrived at Base B.
The sky outside was depressing and gloomy, and I was hit by the cold air as soon as I got off the car.
The evening breeze blowing in my face carried a strong and indelible smell of blood, and not far away there were the roars of zombies and animals.
Reality also quickly brought Qiao Xi back to her senses.
The person who came to greet them was the deputy base commander of Base B.
She was a middle-aged woman who looked quite dignified, but her expression was full of fatigue.
"Thank you all for coming all the way here."
After a few simple greetings, the person in charge of the support from Base C also exchanged some polite words with her.
All around were people with special abilities who took turns to fight and were replaced.
The area where they rest is not big.
Some people fell asleep shoulder to shoulder, their bodies dirty and in a mess, without even the energy to clean themselves up with their water powers.
Qiao Xi's mind seemed to be much clearer.
However, she still looked dull and dazed after just waking up, and just followed the base team blankly. Seeing her distracted like this, Cen Chen was worried that the girl had lost them.
He turned around and went back, specifically asking Qiao Xi to pull the corner of his clothes.
This will prevent girls from being confused and disappearing without noticing.
"This is it."
The deputy base commander led them to the front of the battlefield. The wall built by the earth-type mutants blocked the zombies and zombie-like mutant animals, but these mindless monsters were not afraid of pain.
Even after hitting his head and getting deformed, he didn't stop.
"you……"
The deputy base commander wanted to say something, but he saw the inconspicuous girl in the team let go of the boy's clothes that she had been holding.
That's what she seemed to be here for.
Zombies are her target.
There was a glimmer of light as beautiful and transparent as glass in those bright and clear eyes, so clean that it seemed incompatible with this end of the world. The peaceful atmosphere around her was for the people around her.
More like an abrupt alien.
However, when she came over, even the burly and strong men of the official team of Base C silently made way for her.
This girl.
The deputy base commander had noticed her before. Because she was not wearing a combat uniform and was the only girl in the team, she stood out among them.
And this time, when Base Commander C contacted her.
It is said that they found a very powerful level six psychic.
Level 6? It's at Base B.
Although their number was relatively small, they were not nonexistent. The deputy base commander was familiar with their strength. After all, her son was the base commander of Base B and had the highest level of supernatural power here, level seven.
No matter how powerful the level 6 is.
You can't go beyond level seven, right?
This is what the deputy base commander thought, so she was indifferent to Qiao Xi's behavior and just watched Qiao Xi walk towards the battlefield quietly.
However.
The moment she actually saw the girl take action, her whole world seemed to be turned upside down.
The deputy base commander's pupils suddenly contracted. How could he describe such a magnificent scene?
That's like.
From the pitch-black abyss, a ray of light suddenly rose from the darkness. It pierced the night, leaving a long streak of light that was imprinted on everyone's heart, and when it reached its peak, it suddenly bloomed.
A moment.
An incomparably dazzling light burst forth, tearing through the darkness of despair. It was so dazzling that no one could ignore its brilliance, glittering like a diamond.
The girl did nothing.
Just standing quietly in the crowd, she seemed so out of place. The surrounding psychics looked at her, looking at those delicate white hands as if they were magic.
Light up one by one and gather strength.
Energy with terrifying power was released continuously.
The golden light spread from her white hands, as ethereal and light as a veil, wrapping around her.
Outside the earth wall.
The roars of the zombies and mutated zombie animals that were smashed into pieces of blood seemed to quiet down in an instant.
The world seemed to have been paused by her delicate hands, in an extremely dramatic and absurd way.
With absolute crushing and unparalleled dazzling light.
Lighting up the dark and gloomy sky.
Send the seeds of hope to all those who are desperate, and the roar will stop.
The psychics who were standing on the wall of Base B and continuously releasing their superpowers were all stunned.
Like melting ice and snow.
The bodies of the zombies melted into a pool of rotten flesh, and then gradually turned into a pool of acid water.
It was like a filthy insect lurking in the darkness that would be burned by fire. When it encountered its most natural nemesis, it would be burned to ashes.
The damage caused was widespread.
Everything in the world touched by the golden light seemed to be purified.
It can be said to be a miraculous attack.
The deputy commander of Base B felt as if her heart was about to stop, her breathing halted. Her eyes widened in disbelief as she watched the zombie horde they had fought so hard against vanish in an instant.
It was like a girl was playing with him at will.
It was easily broken, leaving nothing behind.
This scene was deeply imprinted in everyone's eyes. Even many years later, the survivors of Base B who had the honor of witnessing this battle were deeply moved.
The world became quiet in an instant.
Even the sound of breathing was clearly audible, and the people who had been fighting fiercely a second ago seemed to think they were dreaming. The blood they splashed was still warm, and the touch of the blood piercing the zombies' heads was so clear.
But now the enemies are gone, there are no zombies anymore, and they don't have to kill anymore.
This is not a dream.
This is... a miracle that can be called the manifestation of God!
“Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!”
“Wow wow wow!!!”
The silent crowd suddenly erupted into a loud roar, with excited screams, hoarse roars, and tears of joy all intertwined together.
They have been shrouded in despair for too long.
Disaster after disaster has gradually blunted their edges, and we no longer have hope for such unstable days in the future.
Now, it’s different.
Everyone seemed to have found an outlet, their emotions erupting one after another. The excited man nearby cast his gaze towards the girl, and everyone's eyes subconsciously turned to her.
However--
The girl they regarded as a symbol of hope was like a fragile flower in the wind. When the wind and rain blew past, her body lost its balance and fell lightly.
The long black hair spread out like thick seaweed.
As she fell, her body rose in a shallow arc.
Just as the pale girl was about to fall to the ground, a figure as swift as a leopard suddenly flashed through the crowd not far away. In a few flashes, he was beside Qiao Xi and grabbed her slender waist.
"Base Commander—!"
Someone let out a small exclamation, and everyone's joy was strangled. The excited and happy glances that were originally cast at them turned into worry.
"I'll take her back."
The calm man decisively picked up Qiao Xi by the waist. He had wounds of varying sizes bandaged all over his body. Even his handsome face was dusty and disheveled, and his clothes were stained with blood, whether from a zombie or someone else.
but.
That wolf-like sharp gaze seemed to have the natural commanding ability of a superior. Just this one sentence, neither light nor heavy, had the charm to convince those around him.
The other psychics gave way.
"Qiao Xi!"
Cen Chen, who was far away, wanted to catch up, but the deputy base commander reacted quickly and stopped him slightly.
"Don't worry, that's Captain Sheng."
Cen Chen was stunned. It was Base Chief Sheng, also known as Base B's Base Chief Sheng Jing. The surrounding team members also came over and patted his shoulders, telling him not to worry.
He then sighed slightly.
It was not until Sheng Jing disappeared from people's sight holding Qiao Xi that other voices reappeared in the crowd.
The deputy base commander reorganized the crowd and began to assign tasks.
After surviving this disaster, everyone is full of energy.
Cen Chen had no choice but to follow his teammates to help settle the situation first. He would then inquire about the girl and visit her.
On the other side, Sheng Jing was carrying Qiao Xi away.
They went to the hospital immediately. The person on duty saw that the person was brought by the base commander himself, so he did not dare to be careless and hurriedly examined the person carefully.
But the girl was fine.
It looked like she had lost consciousness due to exhaustion of her superpowers. All she needed to do was rest and wait for her to wake up naturally. There were many injured people in the hospital, most of them were superpower users or ordinary people who had been injured in previous battles.
Although just to be on the safe side.
Sheng Jing also wanted the girl to stay in the hospital for observation, but the hospital was short of beds. So the hospitalization could be waived and she could stay at home for observation.
However, Qiao Xi had just arrived at Base B.
There is no home to return to.
If I live with the official team of Base C, it would be inconvenient for a girl to be among a bunch of men, so I have to arrange for her to live separately.
Qiao Xi was temporarily placed in the center of the base.
Sheng Jing tidied up the room and carried the girl to the bed. After observing for a while and finding that Qiao Xi's breathing was steady, he left.
Qiao Xi's consciousness had already escaped back into space.
She acted out the whole thing, using this trick, which was probably incredible in the eyes of others, so she had to act out the whole thing and fainted.
It's the weak look of having all the superpowers exhausted.
After all, people are not perfect, and even the most incredible superpowers have weaknesses, so she has to show some appreciation.
Magic that draws upon the power of the world.
It is also disposable and will disappear after use, so you don't have to worry about it being exposed.
Wait until she wakes up and then make some ugly bunnies.
Such disposable small props are sometimes quite useful and can be given to people around you for emergencies.
Qiao Xi sat in the system space.
Watch a movie and eat potato chips with the two cats, waiting for time to pass in the outside world.
This time, Qiao Xi also went to the next level.
In order to appear weak from the overuse of her powers, she planned to remain in a coma for two days. During this time, He Wanjuan, the deputy director of Base B, and the official team from Base C came to visit her.
Cen Chen was a little worried that she wouldn't wake up.
The official team at Base C was also worried and even sent a message to their base commander. Qiao Xi had successfully completed the mission, surprising everyone.
But it consumes too much energy, so this won’t work.
It is easy to overdraw a girl's body, not to mention that she is still so young. It is better to use this overly powerful and uncontrollable ability as little as possible.
"She is the most special sixth-level psychic I have ever seen."
After leaving Qiao Xi's room and arriving at the conference room of Base B, He Wanjuan also spoke.
She is very strict though.
But for those who admire her, she will not hesitate to praise them: "To be honest, when I first knew she was level six, I didn't have any feelings. As you know, there are level six psychics in our base."
The order of the names of their bases is based on their strength ranking.
Base A is naturally the most powerful, Base B is second, and Base C is third.
As for Base D, it cannot be counted.
Because the nature of Base D is rather special, vaccine development and scientific research are all carried out at Base D, and only highly skilled talents and those with special abilities who are responsible for protecting them are present there.
Airdrops in various places are also arranged by Base D.
Supplies, vegetables, fruits, food, etc. from various bases.
They are also provided by Base D.
Although their combat power is not top-notch, their scientific power is the strongest.
It can be regarded as the crystallization of human wisdom.
"There's a genius at D Base who understands the zombie virus. He's working with his team to develop a vaccine. I think it won't be long before the vaccine is available."
When He Wanjuan talked about this.
The smile on her face made her look gentler.
"genius?"
Cen Chen was also very surprised. Anyone who could be praised as a genius by this strict base commander must be a very powerful person.
"That's right. So it seems like your C Base hasn't sent a team to visit and exchange ideas with the people from D Base. Next time you go, you'll have a chance to see them."
He Wanjuan did not dwell on this topic for too long.
However, the people at Base C also knew more about the outside world. The closest base to their base was Base B, and it took six hours to get here.
We also contact each other quite frequently.
As for other bases, it would take at least two or three days to drive there.
The team from Base A arrived one day after Qiao Xi fell into a coma. When they arrived and saw everyone at Base B cleaning up the aftermath, they were a little confused.
When Deputy Base Commander He Wanjuan came to greet them, they learned that the problem had already been resolved by a girl from the C Base team.
The situation is sudden.
In addition, there were still many things that had not been arranged, and they forgot to notify the A base team that came to support them halfway in advance.
It was also the first time that Cen Chen and his friends met people from Base A.
You won’t know until you see it.
I was shocked when I saw it. Wow. They were all cool guys and beautiful girls in full armor, all with level six supernatural powers. They stood there and did nothing, their aura was so strong that it could drive away everyone around them.
The sense of oppression is too strong.
Especially the man with a crew cut and a scar who led the group. He was so fierce that he looked like a door god, and he was intimidating without even getting angry.
The strength of Base A is indeed far ahead.
After the scarred man who was leading the team watched the video of Qiao Xi wiping out a whole zombie horde at Base B, he and the others were silent for three full minutes. Finally, he slammed the table with his eyes shining.
"This guy is a talent. Are you at Base C willing to give him up?"
Qiao Xi does not belong to the official team.
In other words, she wasn't an official. Since she was hired to do the mission, even if she was an unaffiliated psychic, Base A could still hire her.
However, he prefers to let such people join the team.
However, as soon as these words came out.
It almost made the official team of Base C roll up their sleeves on the spot. Look, is this even human language?
He even wants to poach people right in front of me.
But before the people from Base C could react, the sexy big sister with big wavy hair from the team at Base A pursed her lips and smiled.
"The little girl is still unconscious. We have to wait for her to wake up and ask for her opinion, right?"
After she said this, she looked towards the C base team.
"Please forgive me, our captain is not very good at speaking, and I'm sorry if I offended you."
Everyone at Base C: “…”
What else can I do?
That's it. You can't just give women face and embarrass them. You can only bear it with a pinch of your nose.
but.
Knowing that the team at Base A was trying to poach them, Zhang Ze and the others were secretly on guard. He Wanjuan, watching this scene with a smile on her face, occasionally had a flicker of contemplation in her eyes.
Not long after.
She seemed to have made up her mind, opened the door, left quietly, and went to another office.
