End of the World Cycle

"Little girl, do you have any other family members?"

"Do you have anything for me to do?"

"Did you see it?"

"You showed it very clearly." Xie Qin spoke directly and started by complaining about the old man opposite.

"Then I'll be frank. There is a batch of grain in Qingyang City that has not been soaked by water and is well preserved. However, the floods have destroyed the roads and broken the bridges. Our vehicles can't get in at all."

"You want me to load the food?"

"Yes. Of course the base will not treat you unfairly. As long as you can help, Anyang Base will ensure that you have food and clothing."

"Your base is so big, there should be space-related esper here. Why did you call me?"

"To be honest, although there are space-based esperians in the base, they are only level two. The amount of food in that batch is beyond your imagination."

The capacity of different levels of space is vastly different. The first level of space is estimated to be only about 200 square meters in size and only about three meters high.

The size of the second level is ten times that of the first level, and the third level is ten times that of the second level. The size of Xie Qin's third-level space, whether it is the ground or the height, is basically endless.

"Sure, I'll go and load it." Upon hearing how much food there was, Xie Qin smiled and said obediently.

"That's good. If there's anything you want, I can satisfy you."

"I want a beautiful princess room and lots of snacks." Xie Qin was very happy and smiled sweetly. The old man didn't realize at all that Xie Qin had any intention of taking advantage of his fellow thieves.

"When do we leave?"

"Tomorrow morning. It's still early now. Lunch is at twelve o'clock. There are still two hours. I'll ask someone to take you to rest first."

"Are we going to the beautiful princess room?"

"Not yet, but I promise you, I will arrange it for you before you come back."

"Okay. Thank you, grandpa."

"Well, I may not be as old as you think. My last name is Guan. You can call me Uncle Guan."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Guan."

Xie Qin was taken to a talent apartment, which was decorated simply but cleanly. The talent apartment Xie Qin arrived at was full of people from the supply team.

I was assigned to Team 1 and lived in the best top floor. Although the layout of the top floor was the same as the one below, there were two more balconies in front and back, so the environment was different.

Xie Qin did not rest. After looking at the room, he went out. Outside the base, Miao Zhe set up a canopy against the RV, and a computer in front of him was recording information.

The few people who turned up on the street were all under Miao Zhe's control, handing out flyers or helping with registration. Xu Nuo was holding a small red flag to remind the people behind him to line up.

There were really a lot of people. After all, the Anyang base was very famous. Everyone who was still alive wanted to try their luck. Even though they knew they couldn't get in, they didn't leave. After all, the area within a few hundred meters around the base was safe.

Sometimes, they could even use some valuable things to exchange for food at the small window on the west side of the base. Gradually, there were quite a few permanent residents outside the base.

The name of Wuliang Base is actually not unfamiliar. After all, Guo Dongkang has connected to the official channel and played the news of taking in survivors on a loop.

Therefore, anyone who has listened to the radio knows the name of the Wuliang Base to some extent. So after receiving the exquisite flyer, everyone looked at it carefully.

The information on the flyer was not complicated, mostly introducing the basic environment of the base and the entry threshold. The fact that the light power people could enter the base for free and get a job was enough to attract people.

Ordinary people only need to pay some gold, jade and other external things to enter the base. You know, at this time, the most expensive thing is food. These gold, jade, diamonds and so on are equivalent to stones. Needless to say, even if you don't have them, as long as you are willing, you can search more places where people used to gather, and you can get more or less.

In addition, there were cars to pick them up, so many people who were on the verge of despair signed up. Among them were people who were curious about the Wuliang Base. After all, the pictures in the brochure were exquisite, and the infrastructure was complete, which was no different from the construction before the end of the world.

I thought it was better than starving to death, so I signed up even if I had to live.

By the time Xie Qin went out, he walked around the crowd and came behind Miao Zhe. Nearly three hundred people had already signed up.

There were so many people around that Xie Qin said nothing. He just put down the note and left.

After reading the message left by Xie Qin, Miao Zhe knew that Xie Qin would stay here for a few more days, so he was not in a hurry to register.

He looked at the time and it was almost eleven o'clock. He stopped what he was doing, went back to the RV, and took out a small box of bread made by the Wuliang Base.

A box of twenty loaves of bread was thrown directly to the seven people who were working. The seven people had not eaten anything since they found Xie Qin and the others yesterday afternoon. They had also been chased as targets for a long time and were already starving.

I quickly finished what I was doing and started eating bread. The people waiting to register next to me were already hungry and full. As soon as the package was torn open, the unique wheat aroma of the bread instantly filled the air.

"Look, this is the logo of Wuliang Base." Careful people noticed the packaging on the bag. It is not difficult to imagine that Wuliang Base, like Anyang Base, also has its own food production line.

Although the people around were hungry, they still maintained a basic sense of order. They would steal things secretly, but they would not rob things in the street. Besides, those people were people with special abilities, and they were not starving to death, so they would rather wait than take risks.

Xie Qin took a long tour around the Anyang base. It was a very ordinary base with a simple planning. Although production had been resumed, it was basically centered around food production.

Other aspects are still weak. It is not difficult to find that although this base has many psychics, its armed forces are very poor. There is basically no base defense, only a simple wall.

As long as there's a will, a few more power users can break down the wall, and then collude with some force to start a riot, but now it's not to the point where everyone will be killed.

The difficulty of this base lies in that Xie Qin has not yet found a strong person who can control the base. As of now, the strongest person is the deputy base commander named Guan. The third-level lightning ability.

Seeing that it was almost time, Xie Qin returned to the talent apartment, stood on the balcony, and looked downstairs. He saw cars coming back one after another. They were painted off-road vehicles with the Anyang base logo printed on them.

After looking at her windbreaker, Xie Qin changed her clothes into a light yellow sweatshirt, white and blue jeans, sneakers, and a high ponytail.

She looked in the mirror and it was exactly the feeling Xie Qin wanted to create. At 11:50, someone knocked on Xie Qin's door. It was the man named Zhuang who had brought her here before.

"Hmm? Did you change your clothes?"

"Well, it was too dirty so I changed my clothes."

Looking at the little girl in front of me, she is incredibly clean and delicate, mainly because her face is delicate. Her fair and tender face has a little baby fat, but there is no flaw at all.

Her mouth is pink, her eyes are bright, her eyelashes are particularly long, and although her hair is long, it is tied up neatly and high, making her look very energetic.

The light yellow clothes make her look tender, and just by looking at her you can tell that this child is lovable.

Xie Qin followed Zhuang Ming obediently to the cafeteria on the underground first floor. There were already many people inside, and Xie Qin attracted a lot of attention as soon as she entered.

It's not for anything else, it's simply because such a clean, fair and tender little girl seems to be on a different level from the people around her.

Xie Qin paid a little attention and found that these people were basically second-level psychics, but based on the table, there were one or two third-level psychics at each table. It was not difficult to find that these people should be teammates in the team.

Xie Qin was taken to a private room on the side of the cafeteria. Before she even entered the room, she could hear the sounds of fighting and laughter inside. Zhuang Ming knocked on the door, and the room instantly became quiet.

"Come in." The young man's voice sounded behind the door. After the door was pushed open, Xie Qin saw the person inside clearly.

There were eight people in total, except for the only woman who was a second-level space-type, the others were all third-level psychics. What surprised Xie Qin was that the person sitting at the head of the round table was a young man who looked to be in his twenties, a third-level fire-type psychic. This was the second rare third-level psychic she had seen in this base.

"Brother Zhuang, why are you here?"

"The deputy base commander asked me to bring someone here, a third-level space system. You won't go on the material search tomorrow. Go directly to Qingyang City."

"Have we found the third-order space system? Does that mean Pingping doesn't need to eat corpse crystals anymore?" a younger man asked excitedly.

And next to this man is the woman from the second-level space system. It seems that this person is Pingping.

"Yes, no need."

"That's great. I can finally keep it for myself."

"Come, Qin Ling, meet everyone. This is the captain of Team One, Guan Ci, the youngest son of our deputy base commander."

Xie Qin obediently walked out from behind Zhuang Ming. She could feel that everyone was looking at her, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

"So small? She is at the third level of the Space System?"

"Yeah." Xie Qin nodded, then looked at Guan Ci.

"Hello, Captain. My name is Guo Qinling, and I'm a space-based psychic."

Guan Ci stood up and walked in front of Xie Qin. Xie Qin then realized that Guan Ci was not short. Look at his chest height. He must be 1.85 meters tall. He couldn't help but complain in his heart, these people really grew up eating fertilizer?

"Hello, my name is Guan Ci, a fire-type mutant." Guan Ci extended his hand towards Xie Qin, intending to shake hands.

Xie Qin stretched out her hand, and the girl's soft little hand nestled in Guan Ci's hand. For half a second, Guan Ci even forgot to check Xie Qin's ability level.

After taking his hand back, Guan Ci was certain that this girl was above level three. At least he couldn't tell what level she was, which proved that she was definitely above level three.

Xie Qin looked up, blinked her sparkling eyes, and smiled obediently, instantly making people lose all their guard. After all, how could such a cute and petite little girl have bad intentions?

Seeing that their boss had confirmed it, the others stood up as well. Although they didn't come over, they still waved to Xie Qin.

"Hello little sister, my name is Wang Zixiang, a third-level water-type mutant."

"My name is Li Qiao, third-order mutant strength system."

"Zhou Lei, third-order speed system."

"Ma Yiming, third-level earth element."

"Liu Zhi, third-level strength system."

"Shen Chao, a third-level wood-type mutant."

The woman named Pingping didn't say anything, but looked at Guan Ci awkwardly. After the men finished introducing themselves, Guan Ci turned around and looked at the woman named Pingping and said.

"Since there is a space department, you should go to another team."

"Brother Ci, I, I can also be promoted to the third level soon. Just let me stay."

"Then come back after you've been promoted. You've already wasted a lot of our corpse crystals during this period of time." Guan Ci spoke without giving anyone face, his tone was hard, and he looked condescending.

If it wasn't for verifying whether I was above level three, I guess he wouldn't have gotten up from his seat to shake hands with me.

"Duan Ping, you go to Team 4. They don't have any space-related psychics in their team." Zhuang Ming spoke from the side. When Duan Ping heard Zhuang Ming say that, tears welled up in her eyes and her face turned red. She didn't say anything else, stood up from her seat and followed Zhuang Ming out.

After the door was closed, it became an independent space. Three lively-looking people, led by Wang Zixiang, stood up and walked quickly to Xie Qin's side.

"Little sister, how old are you?"

"Almost fourteen."

"You're so cute, we are all your brothers. From now on, you will be a member of our Team One. You have come to the right place. Our boss is the future base commander. You will not lose out by being our teammate."

"Hello, brothers." Xie Qin responded obediently. Several people had a very good impression of Xie Qin. Apart from her lack of fighting skills, she was just a well-behaved, obedient and pretty little sister.

Xie Qin sat down. There were eight dishes for eight people, six meat dishes, one vegetable dish and one soup. Xie Qin tasted it and it was basically comparable to the good restaurants before the apocalypse.

Xie Qin was not used to eating with strangers. He quickly took a few bites of dishes that others had not touched, and stopped after a few bites. The others were different. They were all young men in their twenties, all tall and strong, and each of them started with three bowls.

Xie Qin had finished her meal early and was waiting, and Guan Ci only then noticed it.

"I am full?"

"I'm not very hungry yet, you guys eat." Xie Qin's voice was soft, with that kind of sweetness that only belongs to a young girl, and it sounded very comfortable.

Even Guan Ci, who was usually a little cold, couldn't help but ask one more question.

"Are you not used to eating this, or are you a germaphobe?"

"No, I... I'm not hungry. Thank you for your concern, Captain."

“Sister Qinqin, don’t mind it. It’s the end of the world. Everyone is tired and easily hungry, so the eating manners don’t look very good.” Wang Zixiang put down the bowl and said with a smile.

"No, no, I'm really not that hungry."

After dinner, several people sat together and chatted for a while. Except for Guan Ci and Shen Chao, everyone else was very talkative, and Xie Qin got to know these people pretty well.

Guan Ci is only 20 years old. The current base commander is Guan Ci's brother, Guan Chu. He is a third-level thunder-type psychic. The other few are not ordinary people either. Their families are all high-level people in Anyang Base, so they can get the best resources and become the first batch of psychics to reach the third level.

As the No. 1 team of Anyang Base, they were basically responsible for completing all the important tasks. After all, they were all family members, so they could rest assured. After leaving the cafeteria, Xie Qin followed them to the armory.
