"Why is there another base with survivors..." Xu Zhengyang frowned as he looked at the communication request before him.
After a moment.
Xu Zhengyang decided to answer, intending to make contact with the people in this camp to see if a peaceful resolution was possible.
Moments later.
With a crackle of static, Xu Zhengyang successfully established a temporary communication channel with the survivor camp in the valley.
Just as Xu Zhengyang was pondering what he could offer to exchange for the UFO wreckage with the people in this base.
A harsh voice came through the speakers:
"Warning! You have entered our airspace. Our anti-aircraft systems have locked onto you. Please leave within thirty seconds of receiving this message, or face the consequences!"
As soon as the words fell.
The person began a cold countdown to Xu Zhengyang, "30, 29, 28..."
The name of this urgent mission was [Gravity Sustenance].
Although he didn't know what the mission reward would be, it was certain to be related to gravity—possibly the anti-gravity system Xu Zhengyang had been longing for! Therefore, no matter the attitude of the people in this base towards him, he could not give up on this mission!
Because of this.
After hearing the base's warning, Xu Zhengyang sighed and said, "It seems this won't be resolved peacefully."
Just as Xu Zhengyang was about to strike first.
Suddenly.
Da Bai sent a real-time nine-square grid surveillance feed to Xu Zhengyang's contact lenses, saying, "Master, I've hacked into the base's surveillance system through a wireless channel. Look at this!"
After glancing at the surveillance feed, Xu Zhengyang's expression instantly darkened.
The base was not occupied by an official organization, but by a group of thugs with menacing faces and tattoos, clearly bad news just by their appearance! Not only that.
In the base's prison, all 64 cells were filled with disheveled young women.
Seeing the scenes from the surveillance feed, Xu Zhengyang suddenly understood, "No wonder their words over the wireless communication sounded so strange and foolish.
So that's how it is..."
With a cold smile, Xu Zhengyang said, "This way, I won't have any psychological burden."
As he spoke.
Xu Zhengyang immediately piloted the Hurricane Light Multi-Function Mecha in its FPV drone form, ascending into the clouds, pretending to have been scared off.
Then.
Xu Zhengyang, for the first time in a while, donned his Flight Combat Suit, stored the Hurricane Light Multi-Function Mecha in his Dimensional Space Pocket, and leaped down!
...
*Meanwhile, inside the base.
A young man in skinny jeans and bean shoes hurriedly said to the tattooed middle-aged man next to the microphone, "Brother Long is truly amazing! With just a few words, he scared off that pilot!"
As soon as the young man finished speaking, the group of thugs behind Brother Long chimed in, lavishing praise on him.
"Alright, alright!"
Although Brother Long said this, he was clearly pleased, a smile spreading across his face.
He then waved his hand grandly and said to everyone, "The danger is over! Everyone, let's head back to the activity square and keep the music and dancing going!"
...
Brother Long's real name was Chen Erlong.
After the apocalypse arrived, he was fortunate enough not to be infected by the Blood Plague and followed the crowd of survivors in their escape.
Eventually, guided by the broadcast from this base, he entered it for refuge.
At first, Chen Erlong behaved decently.
But the original leader of this base, Cheng Xin, was a born saint, so she continuously broadcasted to the outside, telling everyone that there was electricity, food, and shelter here...
Because of this.
Countless survivors flocked to this base, many of whom were scoundrels like Chen Erlong.
One month into the apocalypse.
Due to Cheng Xin's failure to thoroughly screen the latest batch of survivors, a survivor who had just been infected with the Blood Plague Virus and showed no obvious symptoms entered the base.
One week later.
As expected, a small-scale Blood Plague outbreak occurred in the base! Even though many people started biting their fellow humans right in front of Cheng Xin, she still forbade the soldiers from shooting, only allowing them to knock down and restrain the infected.
Because of this.
The armed forces in the base suffered heavy losses, and many soldiers also turned into Blood Plague Zombies! From then on.
The order in this base completely collapsed! Seeing an opportunity, Chen Erlong raised his arms and rallied the people, taking the lead in picking up weapons to kill the Zombies in the base!
After he had eliminated all the Zombies in the base.
Chen Erlong then used the excuse that "some people might be infected" to have everyone separated and quarantined, only releasing them after a week if there were no issues.
The survivors in the base had just been betrayed by their companions, so they all thought Chen Erlong's words made sense and voluntarily quarantined themselves as he requested.
Not a single mistake, not a single deviation, not a single content in 69 Book Bar!
Chen Erlong took advantage of this opportunity.
To gather all the Bad Seeds in the base, distribute weapons to them, and immediately launched a massive purge of the base!
The sound of gunfire "bang bang" echoed in the shelter, and the survivors staying in their rooms for quarantine not only felt no fear but instead felt reassured.
Because in their perception, those infected with the Blood Plague Virus were being executed by gunfire.
It wasn't until Chen Erlong's gun was aimed at them that they realized the truth.
But how could mere flesh and blood contend with modern firearms?
So in just half a day, this shelter completely changed hands, fully controlled by Chen Erlong!
...
This base had a hydroelectric power station, so the electricity was very sufficient, and the surveillance cameras were always operating normally.
Because of this.
When Xu Zhengyang quietly infiltrated this base, Da Bai read through the base's surveillance footage, summarized the recent events, and briefly told Xu Zhengyang.
After listening to Da Bai's words, Xu Zhengyang was speechless.
After a long silence.
Xu Zhengyang then asked Da Bai, "What about that Cheng Xin, is she dead?"
"Not yet."
Da Bai said, sending an image to Xu Zhengyang's contact lenses.
In the image.
Cheng Xin was now stripped naked and tied up in a cell.
Not only that.
Chen Erlong had used his ingenuity to set up various anti-suicide devices for Cheng Xin, keeping her alive.
Seeing Cheng Xin's current miserable state.
"One reaps what one sows."
Xu Zhengyang shook his head and sighed, "Indeed, when the apocalypse comes, the first thing to do is to kill the saints!"
As he spoke.
Xu Zhengyang had already silently made his way inside the base using his magnetic sensory nerve skill.
"Master, I've located the warehouse where the flying saucer is stored!"
Da Bai spoke, projecting a 3D map of the base onto Xu Zhengyang's contact lenses. He highlighted a specific room with a green shadow and provided a walking route marked with a red line for Xu Zhengyang to follow.
