base.
When they returned, the base commander personally greeted them at the gate to welcome them back safely, with cannon salutes and a red carpet, giving them the highest level of treatment.
Zhao Zhao finally met the chubby boy who was always busy with his work, and stared at his bald head with curiosity.
Jiang Yan handed Zhao Zhao over to the base commander and said with a smile, "Zhao Zhao has lived up to expectations and brought back a lot of important supplies."
"Good, good, good, you're all great."
The apocalyptic celebration was rather simple, but the group was very happy because they felt valued.
The joy outweighed the fear I felt when I first saw the zombie army.
Human emotions are sometimes very complex. Selfish people are extremely selfish, and in order to protect themselves, they will scheme to make countless people die in their place. On the other hand, selfless people are full of love and are willing to give everything for others.
The base commander beamed with joy as he faced them, and the base residents cheered with delight.
Afterwards, Zhao Zhao was taken to the warehouse to clear out the supplies. The 50 square meters of precious supplies were placed in the warehouse, forming a small mountain.
Their trip will likely provide enough supplies for the base's inhabitants for about a month, relieving their immediate crisis.
"Little Zhao Zhao, come here." The base commander smiled and beckoned to Zhao Zhao.
Zhao Zhao eagerly went forward at his call, and saw several glittering crystal cores lying on his outstretched palm.
"Wow, what beautiful stones!"
"These are crystal cores. Eating them can enhance your superpowers."
The base commander solemnly stuffed them into Zhao Zhao's small pocket and whispered, "No one else has any."
"This is a reward for the little hero." Of course, the reward is one thing, but more importantly, the base chief hopes that Zhao Zhao's spatial ability will be upgraded.
Zhao Zhao was very happy. Receiving a reward meant that he had done something meaningful, and he felt recognized again!
"Thank you, Uncle Base Chief." With that, he took out a crystal core from his pocket and opened his mouth to take a bite.
The base commander quickly stopped him, and with a helpless smile at the child's questioning gaze, said, "That's not how you eat crystal cores."
"When you get back, let Dr. Xu teach you how to use them."
Zhao Zhao nodded, and with the base chief's permission, picked up a lollipop from the ground and happily went outside.
At the warehouse entrance, Xu Qianbai, with a gentle expression, was waiting for him: "Brother Xu!"
"I missed you!" She rushed over like a cannonball and was then embraced in a warm hug.
Xu Qianbai gently lowered her head and pinched Zhao Zhao's little face, saying with heartache, "You've lost so much weight these past few days on the road."
"Jiang Yan and his family really don't know how to raise children."
He then anxiously examined Zhao Zhao's body, but found no wounds, and breathed a sigh of relief: "I heard that Jiang Yan was possessed by a soul after going out, and he's been completely disoriented ever since?"
His gentle eyes looked at the child whose smile had faded, and he asked, "Did you encounter anything that day?"
Zhao Zhao lowered her head, her eyes slightly red as she thought of her brother: "When you see me... sob sob."
"Nothing else, Brother Xu, please don't ask."
"it is good."
Xu Qianbai comforted Zhao Zhao, patting her back, thinking that he would settle accounts with Jiang Yan later.
Life back at the base was still the same: training with superpowers, eating, sleeping—a monotonous but very safe routine.
Recently, Zhao Zhao heard that the zombies, who had been behaving themselves for a while, have started attacking cities and territories in droves again.
At the same time, there is also bad news.
Xu Qianbai went out with a professional exploration team a few days ago to personally search for the key object for researching the serum. As a result, he is now trapped in S City, which is surrounded by zombies, and can no longer get out.
Xu Qianbai is the most learned doctor in the base and the most promising human to research anti-zombie virus serum. He absolutely cannot be allowed to get into trouble.
So the base once again sent a team to the rescue, and Jiang Yan, who had a good relationship with him, took the initiative to take on the task.
On the day the group set off, Zhao Zhao left a letter for Deng Xiaozhi, who was taking care of him.
Using its small size and the route guided by the system, it hid in the food crate of the traveling convoy.
"Huh? Why does this box feel so much heavier?"
The two men carrying the grain were completely bewildered, but hearing Jiang Yan's urging from ahead, they didn't stop and moved the boxes onto the truck.
Zhao Zhao, hiding in the box, felt her heart pounding. Upon hearing this, she breathed a sigh of relief.
He was placed on a special food truck along with other food and water supplies.
While waiting for the convoy to start moving, he took out his box, lay down on a few bags of rice, and waited for the convoy to stop and rest, planning to go find Jiang Yan later.
Give him a surprise.
Zhao Zhao was secretly pleased with herself, but whether it would be a pleasant surprise or a shock was uncertain.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yan received a call from Deng Xiaozhi.
"Jiang Yan, have you seen Zhao Zhao?! That little brat left me a note saying he went looking for you!!"
Deng Xiaozhi on the other end of the signal device sounded utterly devastated, while Jiang Yan was completely petrified: "What? Zhao Zhao is looking for me?!"
His eyes widened, and he was absolutely certain he hadn't seen the tiny figure. He exclaimed in horror, "I didn't see it!!!"
Oh no, right now, he doesn't know whether he's more afraid of something happening to Zhao Zhao or more afraid of the zombie king getting angry at them for not watching their brother properly.
For a moment, only two words came to mind: It's over.
