The dark age of mankind is coming

An Ning came to the outside of the base and found a deserted place.

She took a deep breath, mobilized the spiritual power in her body, and performed the first move of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman Sword Technique.

As she moved, several sword energies suddenly appeared in the air and flew straight forward.

An Ning put away her sword and looked at the big hole in front of her that was blown out by the sword energy. She felt a little more at ease. She could feel that her strength was stronger than before.

Next, she tried several different moves and felt her progress each time.

After some testing, An Ning found that his strength had indeed improved significantly.

Not only that, her speed, reaction ability and other aspects have also been enhanced.

In the end times, zombies and mutated plants and animals are becoming more and more powerful. Ordinary weapons can no longer cause effective damage to them, so she must constantly improve her strength.

At this moment, a roar came from not far away.

An Ning's eyes flashed, he clenched the sword in his hand and ran towards the direction of the sound.

It turned out that two mutant beasts were fighting.

An Ning hid in the dark and observed. The two mutant beasts were huge, with hair as hard as steel needles and extremely sharp teeth.

At this time, their fight was extremely fierce, and the surrounding trees were knocked down. However, the two seemed to be equally strong and it was difficult to tell the winner.

Suddenly, one of the mutant beasts noticed An Ning, and it immediately gave up its opponent and pounced towards An Ning.

An Ning thought that since he had been discovered, he might as well practice with these two mutant beasts.

An Ning dodged the attack and swung his sword at the mutant beast.

The mutant beast nimbly avoided the sword and turned around to pounce on An Ning again.

An Ning dodged to the side, then used a sword shadow splitting move, and several sword lights intertwined into a net and attacked the mutant beast.

Seeing this, the mutant beast spewed out a black flame from its mouth, trying to block the sword light.

However, An Ning's swordsmanship was so powerful that it penetrated the flames and hit the mutant beast's body.

The injured mutant beast was extremely angry. It opened its bloody mouth, let out an angry roar, and pounced on An Ning again.

This time, An Ning did not dodge. She jumped up and swung the sword in her hand down in the air, hitting the mutant beast's head hard.

The mutant beast screamed and fell to the ground.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the other mutant beast turned around and ran away.

An Ning looked at the escaped mutant beast without moving. His thunder ability was activated. A thick bolt of lightning instantly hit the mutant beast. Its body twitched a few times and then went limp.

An Ning took the opportunity to rush over and stabbed the mutant beast's throat with a sword, ending it.

An Ning waved his hand, and the bodies of the two mutant beasts were collected into the space, and then he turned and returned to the base.

At the same time, snowplows and trucks loaded with mutant bear corpses were slowly driving into the base.

The supplies that Zhang Ren and others brought back from this search were so eye-catching that they immediately attracted the attention of many people as soon as they entered the base.

"Is that a bear?" someone couldn't help but exclaim.

"Oh my God, there is such a big bear!" another person exclaimed.

People gathered around and pointed at the mutant bear corpse on the truck, their eyes full of curiosity and surprise.

No one missed the mutated fish and shrimp on the snowplow, but no one was surprised. After all, they had eaten a lot of mutated seafood in recent days, so these were not strange to them.

An Ning walked slowly into the base, and this was the scene that came into view.

The number of staff at the Hope Base is not large at present, only over a hundred people. Although not everyone is familiar with each other, at least they know each other.

As the base commander, An Ning became the spiritual pillar of everyone.

When An Ning appeared, someone immediately noticed her arrival.

"Team An!"

"Team An!"

"..."

Shouts rang out one after another, and An Ning nodded to everyone.

At this time, Zhang Ren also noticed An Ning standing on the edge of the crowd.

Thinking of what he was about to report, he asked Li Yang and others to stay and deal with the mutant bear's body and the mutant fish and shrimp, and then walked towards An Ning.

"Aren't you going fishing? Why are you fighting a mutant bear?" An Ning asked curiously.

"We encountered it near the Kawa River..." Zhang Ren told An Ning in detail about their encounter with the bear, and also shared his speculation about the behavior of this mutant bear.

An Ning nodded in agreement, expressing her confirmation of Zhang Ren's guess, and told him what she had just experienced when she went out.

"It seems that the frequency of mutant animals appearing will become higher and higher in the future. We must strengthen patrols in the surrounding areas to prevent more mutant beasts from attacking. Also, I would like to remind everyone to be more cautious when going out exploring in the future." An Ning said seriously.

Mutated beasts have strong attack and defense capabilities. If they appear in large numbers, they will pose a huge threat to humans.

Zhang Ren agreed with this and nodded solemnly.

……

That night, everyone's dinner was the mutant fish, shrimp and bears that Zhang Ren and his group had caught during the day.

Especially the mutant bear's paw, which is particularly eye-catching and exudes an enticing aroma.

The two bear paws were cut into small pieces by Wang Wuqi and cooked until they were tender and juicy, presenting an attractive reddish brown color.

The meat has clear texture and exudes a rich aroma that makes people's appetite increase.

Everyone couldn't wait to pick up a piece and put it in their mouth.

The first thing you feel is the softness and elasticity of the bear paw. With a light bite, the delicious gravy overflows in your mouth.

The taste is mellow with a hint of saltiness, which makes people linger in the aftertaste.

"This bear paw is so delicious!" someone exclaimed.

"Yes, this is one of the most delicious foods I have ever eaten." Another person agreed. The unique taste seemed to have blended the essence of nature and made people intoxicated.

The table was filled with tempting aromas as everyone gathered together, eating and chatting, enjoying the delicious food and sharing their experiences and insights of this adventure.

In the middle of the night, everything was silent, so quiet and peaceful, as if time had frozen at this moment.

However, at this quiet moment, a shrill alarm pierced the night sky, catching everyone off guard.

"Attention everyone! Attention everyone!" The broadcasting system in the base issued an emergency notice.

"There are mutant animals attacking, there are mutant animals attacking." This news was like a thunderclap, waking everyone up from their sleep.
