End of the World Cycle

After approaching the base, Xie Qin sent a message to Guo Dongkang using the base app. As soon as they arrived in Dongyue, Guo Dongkang had already led the convoy to the edge of the city.

After getting off the car, Qin Zhang felt the hostility from almost everyone, especially Guo Dongkang, who didn't say a word and didn't show any expression at all.

"Now that the person has been sent, Captain Qin, please go back. I will talk to the old man about it. Please don't worry about the rest."

Qin Zhang opened his mouth and was about to say something when he saw a big fool grabbing Xie Qin's wrist and walking away. Xie Qin actually got into the car without any resistance.

Xie Qin looked at Liu Bo, and suddenly he felt the third level of strength. His eyes seemed much clearer than before. Zhou Lili was also in the car, looking at Xie Qin with a smile.

In the other car sat Miao Zhe, and even Xu Kai came. Xie Qin found it funny, and she didn't know what Guo Dongkang said to these people. Everyone looked at Qin Zhang as if he were trash.

Qin Zhang, who was still standing outside, was controlled in an instant. With a look of fear on his face, he wanted to find something around him, but his hands and feet had already opened the car door. After sitting in the driving seat, he drove away with swift hands and feet.

Xie Qin looked up and saw two figures standing on the rooftop across from him. He smiled helplessly and shook his head. He retracted his gaze and followed Zhou Lili and the others back.

Qin Zhang, who was in the car, was just shocked!

The car drove several hundred meters and Qin Zhang was still unable to break free of control. He must be a spiritual system of the fourth level or above. Who was it? Just those few people, except for the woman sitting in the passenger seat who was an ordinary person, all the others were terrifyingly strong. Was it the man in the other car?

No, that person is also a psychic, but he can feel that he is not stronger than himself. If he is controlled by force, he will definitely be able to resist. The car drove farther and farther away, and he wanted to go back to find out what was going on. As soon as he approached the edge of the city, he found densely packed zombies that came out from nowhere.

The area around the city was completely surrounded. Although they were all first-level zombies, there were too many of them. Even if he used up all his powers to clear them out, they would probably pile up into a small hill, blocking the way for the car.

There is a long time to come, Guo Qinling is still young, he still has time, he can still become stronger. After all, he becomes stronger faster than others. Maybe it is a man's desire to win. The more someone doesn't want him to take it, the more he wants to get it.

It was originally just a good impression and some liking, but it was upgraded to obsession due to such difficulty. It seemed that making Guo Qinling his own person became his goal at this moment.

The mining is going very smoothly. Now the population of the base has reached nearly 30,000, more than half of whom are from the Anyang base. On the way back, I learned a general idea from Zhou Lili.

Zhou Lili selected some reliable people and sneaked into the Anyang base. Just as if they were chatting, they spread some negative emotions, which instantly accelerated the riot in the Anyang base. Although the abilities of the upper-level psychics in the Anyang base were not weak, they could not withstand the large number of grassroots psychics, although no major casualties were caused.

But the Anyang base was instantly in chaos. They had originally planned to take a high-profile approach and look for an opportunity to negotiate terms with the Wuliang base, but the sudden riot caught them off guard.

Helplessly, for safety reasons, the families of the upper class were all relocated, and the closest to them were those at the Wuliang Base. Of course, Zhou Lili was very kind to accept those people and arranged accommodation for them.

After those who caused the riots stole food and vehicles and fled, it took the management of the Anyang base several days to restore peace to the base. By the time they realized what was happening, many people had already left for fear of being implicated in the riot. Those who left were ordinary people who had bought food on credit and came to the base to work.

For the Anyang base, it can be said that both people and money were lost. Those free people who paid for food were basically left behind, many facilities and equipment were destroyed, and a lot of food in the warehouse was also stolen.

Those who left went to the Wuliang Base. At a suitable location, Guo Dongkang led a convoy to pick up more than 6,000 free laborers, and almost without taking a breath, he directly brought more than 6,000 people in batches to various major mining sites.

At first, those people felt that the work was hard, and even half-grown children had to work. But when they saw the full meals three times a day, there was not a single complaint.

In addition, each major mining site has an incentive mechanism. Anyone who can meet the requirements within two months can leave the mine and move into the base, where they will be provided with food, accommodation and work, and children under the age of sixteen can go to school.

They had also read the base’s brochure, which showed a good environment and good facilities. After being devastated by the apocalypse for nearly two years, they saw hope for the first time and worked even harder.

Another group of technical talents also entered the Wuliang Base free of charge and started working. Even the official researchers temporarily stationed at the Anyang Base were deceived by Zhou Lili and lured to the Wuliang Base on the grounds of safety.

Zhou Lili's operation can be described as getting something for nothing. The Anyang base no longer has the conditions for negotiation and even has to borrow equipment from the Wuliang base to rebuild the base.

Because of the massive loss of grain and food shortage, they began to seek help from food-free bases.

The negotiations were still led by Zhou Lili. It took only three days from the initial borrowing to the later joining of Anyang Base as a subsidiary base.

Anyang Base moved half of its food production lines to Wuliang Base, and the families of the upper class also moved into Wuliang Base. Anyang Base's food research and development department and plant research institute were also moved to Wuliang Base.

Today, the Anyang base is more like a huge processing plant. Although it is operating normally, it can no longer do without the Wuliang base.

The base has reached level 4. Expanding outward from the building, it already covers more than half of the original Dongyue City. According to Xiaobao, a level 5 base is almost the size of the entire Dongyue City.

You know, Dongyue City was originally planned to be a new first-tier city, and the facilities and equipment in several major areas are top-notch. Although it has been devastated by natural disasters, with the help of the base maintenance department, the city will definitely be able to resume normal operations.

If the safety of this base can be guaranteed in the end times, then the chances of human survival will be greater. Suddenly, Xie Qin seemed to understand why the Donghuang Base existed.

The people who studied the spiritual spring water did not make any progress. When analyzing the water from a scientific point of view, they could not see anything special. Now those who joined the Anyang Base Research Institute have changed the direction, and there have been no new discoveries so far. Xie Qin is a little depressed. Maybe this thing is really non-renewable.

Who can explain such a mysterious thing? If science can't explain it, we can only think about it in a mysterious way. But Xie Qin did not give up studying the spiritual spring water. What if there is a researcher with extraordinary talent? Maybe this thing can become renewable?

Before getting off the car, Xie Qin turned around and asked Zhou Lili as if he had thought of something.

"There was a conflict at the Anyang base. Where did those people who died go?"

"I knew you would ask. There were more than seventy dead. I had the space-based psychics pack them up and throw them into the second-level zombie group. I gave ten fresher ones to Guan Feng."

"As expected of you."

"Same here." Zhou Lili smiled and bumped Xie Qin's shoulder. Xie Qin glanced at Zhou Lili and took a bottle of spiritual spring water from the space.

"Take this and see the effect."

"it is good."

She has a small fort to test her health, so she did the experiment on herself. After almost a month, her body has changed significantly, and all of them are good changes. All kinds of physical fitness have improved. The next step is to use Lingquan water to change the physique of her mother, brother, Zhou Lili, and Liu Bo.

As for the others, she would measure them based on their loyalty. After all, this thing is still limited now.

The base has now reached level four. Although it was within her expectations, she did not let her guard down. It's just that unlike before, her points are much more abundant now. More than 1.1 billion points are enough for her to reinforce the base.

Although there were many weapons in the armory, there were very few heavy armored vehicles of various types. The next day after returning to the base, he took Guo Dongkang to the previous airport.

The airport is already within the protection range of the base. With a little modification, it can become an on-site military base. After discussing with Guo Dongkang, according to the current style of the base, three 400-seat passenger planes, 50 military helicopters, tanks, armored vehicles, and three nuclear bombs were purchased in the space.

It then took another half a month to relocate the original armed department to the airport. Firearms and ammunition were sufficient, and at this point, the base's thermal weapons were barely fully stocked.

After another half a month, Xie Qin and Guo Dongkang carefully inspected the perimeter of the base. Finally, they decided to use reconnaissance robots for patrol and defense, and set up an armed station every one kilometer to allow for flexible deployment.

While reinforcing the base, the pursuit team at Anyang Base captured the first group of residents who had robbed and escaped. Anyang Base did not have formal sentencing standards, nor did it have the conditions to detain prisoners. After much consideration, it decided to send this group of people to Wuliang Base.

When Xie Qin received the report, he did not intend to accept them. After all, the people Zhou Lili sent had already returned to their base during the chaos, and the rest were not honest people. There was no shortage of labor now, and if it was not a death sentence to take them over, it would be a waste of food.

It wasn't until Xie Qin flipped through the pages and saw that there were three space-powered people among the 40 people, and they were all second-level, that he became excited.

You know, space-based psychics are very rare. There are only 8 space-based psychics in the entire base, which greatly reduces their efficiency. So she has been reluctant to absorb these people to upgrade herself.

Now that these people have been sent to the prison in their base, the loss of two or three people will not cause any harm.

Five days later, Liang Pengfei and his men brought the carload of people back. After entering the base, the forty people were taken to the prison in batches.

The three people were brought to the top floor by Guan Feng. According to Xie Qin's instructions, they were fed to the third level first. After the three people at the third level finished absorbing, they would almost be able to reach the fourth level.

A month later, Liang Pengfei led a team of 800 psychics above level 2 to integrate the resources from the four surrounding city-level cities and transported them all back to the base.

Like the calm before the storm, the entire base seemed a little urgent. Although the residents of the base did not know what would happen, they could clearly feel that the base's management was working overtime to integrate the defense.

When there were ten days left before the natural disaster struck again, the people in the major mines were basically all brought back. Only a few cunning people were left in the mines. The total number of people in the five mines was more than 4,000.

After being incorporated into the base as official residents, plus those who heard the radio from surrounding areas and rushed to the Wuliang Base during this period, the total population of the base reached 35,000.

After experiencing the cruelty of the end of the world, everyone was filled with gratitude for such a peaceful and safe base. After having enough food to eat, they had a job to survive, and gradually people seemed to have hope of living again.

Unconsciously, everyone's loyalty to the base is also increasing. They don't know why this base is so strong, nor do they know why the base and the outside of the base are two different worlds. They only know that as long as they enter the gate of the base, this base is like an invisible protective shield protecting them.

Guo Dongkang was always there to take the lead, and people just thought that Guo Dongkang, the head of the base, was an extraordinary person. Even the official news was that Guo Dongkang had built the largest private base.

Even Guo Dingtao couldn't help but look proud when he heard the news, and said that he was worthy of being his grandson.

There are still three days before the second natural disaster, and the entire Wuliang base is ready. She doesn't know how well the base's protective shield can withstand acid rain, but she still issued a stay-at-home notice just in case.

The base was divided into population units, with each person being given 10 kilograms of rice and 1 kilogram of oil, and the rest had to be prepared by themselves. For three consecutive days, the supermarkets in the four directions of the base were full of people.

When Xie Qin accidentally saw it, he suddenly remembered the scene many years ago when the government notified people to stay at home in quarantine and people lined up to go to the supermarket to stock up on goods.

Acid rain is coming——

Xie Qin stood on the top floor terrace, watching the raindrops hitting the plants, but the plants showed no signs of change. Soon the call came from the research institute.

The rain in the base was normal rain. An hour later, the research institute sent another message: the rain outside the base was strong acid rain, and the pH value had dropped below 4.

The images transmitted back from the small fort were even more shocking. Those non-metal buildings were corroding at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the vegetation that had finally awakened from the cold wave began to die. The zombies began to swell from being soaked by acid rain. It seemed that the world was heading towards destruction at a very fast speed.

Xie Qin stood on the balcony, staring blankly at the rain. She had no thoughts at all. She just felt that the world was so empty. She didn't even know what she could do next.

It's a bit regrettable that she is not a savior. She is afraid of death and is so selfish that she only wants to create a healthy and harmonious living environment for herself and her family.

She didn't want to do anything else, but if she really did nothing, what would happen if this small society she had created with great difficulty disappeared?

Xie Qin shook her head, trying to get rid of some thoughts from her head. She was too tired, not physically, but she was also tense all the time and her nerves were a little exhausted.

A feeling of loneliness lingered all over her body, which was very uncomfortable. There were people around her, but at this moment she felt like she was alone. The loneliness was a bit desolate.

Seeing that her daughter had not come down yet, Zhang Mingfang went upstairs carefully. Her daughter was staring at the rain in a daze, so she took off her shawl and put it on her daughter's shoulders.

"It's cold outside, let's go downstairs."

"Yeah. Mom."

"what happened?"

"I want to eat the sesame dumplings you made."

"Okay, Mom will make it for you right away." Zhang Mingfang instantly felt that her daughter was in a bad mood. She put one arm around her daughter's shoulders, held her hand with the other, and led her downstairs.
