Chapter 3 Yuhai Base: A safe zone for survivors

"You mean, this man named Mu Qiu was picked up by you in an alley in the red zone?"

In an office in a high-rise building in the safety zone called Yuhai Base, a woman in military uniform with a frosty complexion was sitting on a chair and looking at a document report.

There was a man standing in front of the table. If Mu Qiu were here, he would definitely recognize that this man was the special forces captain in the alley!

The woman in military uniform has a strong nose and beautiful face, and her pair of willow eyebrows make her even more heroic.

The captain replied: "Yes, sir! According to this person, his family ran a supermarket before the apocalypse, and after the apocalypse, he lived on the food stored in the supermarket. In recent days, the food has been used up, so he Decided to take risks and go out in search of food..."

After hearing this, the woman in military uniform lowered her head and thought for a moment, then smiled, put the document on the table and said, "Wei Ying, how credible do you think his statement is?" m.

The captain named Wei Ying said: "This... we have checked the supermarket he described. The entire building has been smashed to pieces by the Balrog. There is no evidence to confirm his identity..."

Wei Ying said, suddenly remembering the frost that formed on Mu Qiu's feet out of fear in the alley, and said in surprise: "But according to what we know, this Mu Qiu may be an ability user, or even a rare elemental system! "

"Oh? Is that so..."

Hearing this, the woman in military uniform frowned, knocked on the table, pondered for a moment and said, "No matter what, elemental ability users are exactly the talents we are lacking now... take him to do the awakened person test, If he passes, he will be trained in the training department, and someone will continue to keep an eye on him. If there are any special circumstances, he will inform me immediately. "

Wei Ying gave a standard military salute: "Yes!"

————————

When Mu Qiu woke up, it was already dawn. He opened the quilt and climbed up from the bed. The bright sunshine shone warmly from outside through the window, making him mistakenly think that he was still in the prosperous but busy world before the end of the world. ...

At this moment, Mu Qiu had already changed into a relatively clean white shirt.

Unknowingly, he had been living in this Yuhai base for three days. He took a deep breath. Except for the occasional smell of blood, the air seemed to be no different from the real world. On the contrary, the large-scale shutdown of factory machines caused the nature to Mother feels much more comfortable...

Very funny thing...

The place where he is now is a safe zone called "Jade Sea Base". It is composed of survivor alliances from several nearby municipalities. It has tens of thousands of people. It can be regarded as one of the few shelters since the end of the world. .

He turned around and looked at the people on the bed around him. Except for a few people who were fast asleep, the people who were awake all had haggard faces and empty eyes as if they had lost their yearning for life.

Like himself, these are all survivors who have been rescued from the "disaster area", and most of them possess superpowers or have a tendency to evolve. Only then could they be arranged in this room that could protect them from wind and rain.

The treatment in such a temporary residence is already very good. At least they can guarantee warm and cold meals. As for the fate of other ordinary people, it's hard to say.

Those who were lucky enough to have a skill could still make a living in this age of cannibalism. Those who were unlucky enough to live on the streets and eat meat were commonplace.

After taking a deep breath and sorting herself out, Mu Qiu walked out of the room and came outside. The moment she opened the door, the glaring sunlight shone in. The stinging Mu Qiu subconsciously raised her arms to block it.

Sitting casually on a step by the side of the road, Mu Qiu couldn't help but fall into deep thought as she looked at the flow of people in front of her who were not crowded, with shabby clothes and dusty faces.

First of all, it was obvious that he had sneaked into this survivor base. The medical staff responsible for the inspection did not notice any abnormalities in his body when he entered earlier.

Coupled with the fact that he deliberately exposed his supernatural powers, it should have attracted the attention of his superiors, right?

In my impression, there are very few awakened ones of other elemental types. When I was still the monster codenamed "Fire Demon Lord", I was very interested in this kind of zombies...

Well, very interested in eating them…

According to normal procedures, I should be placed into a combat team similar to the one before. Then I can develop steadily and plan for a retreat.

"Hey, it looks like you're recovering well!"

Not far away, a pretty and well-dressed girl walked over. She looked like an urban beauty before the apocalypse, and was incompatible with the slightly dilapidated scene around her.

"Wei Ling'er..."

Mu Qiu raised her hand and greeted the girl.

This person is none other than Wei Ling'er who took Mu Qiu all the way back to the Yuhai base.

During the three days he came to the base, apart from some "staff" responsible for reception and review, the one who had the most exchanges with him was the girl in front of him.

At this moment, Wei Ling'er was holding a bag of bread in her hand. She walked closer and handed the bread to Mu Qiu naturally...

Mu Qiu was stunned for a moment, then reacted and took the bread and said directly: "Why are you so nice to me?"

It’s no wonder that Mu Qiu was surprised. Although food like bread is not very precious to an “awakened person” like Wei Ling’er, Mu Qiu had just met her, and Wei Ling’er couldn’t make the mistake of staying away from home for him. Come here...

The other survivors in the house are still struggling to survive on three meals a day!

Unexpectedly, after hearing Mu Qiu's words, Wei Ling'er just hammered Mu Qiu's shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't be so sentimental. I came to help you partly because your experience is somewhat similar to mine before. Let me I can't help but sympathize, but on the other hand..."

Mu Qiu's eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the girl's words...

"An awakened person who may be of the elemental system has great potential for development! In other words, you are worthy of me personally coming to win over you!"

After saying that, Wei Ling'er patted Mu Qiu's shoulder, as if she was very optimistic about you: "So, young man, you have to work hard!"

Mu Qiu had already calculated something in her mind, but she was a little surprised by the girl's straightforward answer. She shook her head with a wry smile: "Sure enough, there really is no such thing as a free lunch."

Wei Ling'er actually nodded in agreement: "Not bad, good, rare things can be lived in, rare things can be lived in..."

Stretching, the girl's slim curves were revealed. Wei Ling'er yawned slightly, rubbed her eyes and said:

"It seems that you have almost recovered and it is time to adapt to the environment here. Someone will come over in the afternoon to take you for a test." After saying that, he patted Mu Qiu's shoulder again and smiled seriously.

"If you are really a rare elemental awakener, the higher-ups will definitely train you!"

"Awakened One's... test?"

As Mu Qiu said this, she unconsciously opened the bag of bread, grabbed the bread and took a bite.

The bean paste filling tastes pretty good...
