Chapter 356 The Apocalypse Arrives 9
"Okay, be careful too, let's go!" Lu Yan said, then turned and walked downstairs.
The others quickly followed, and Ye Xingzhu's voice came as she walked: "Sister, just wait for our good news."
Ye Zhiyin felt reassured about them going over there. After all, she had observed that the most powerful one among the zombies was the leader, who was slightly higher in rank.
They had fought their way through zombies, so they were fine.
She kept a close eye on the situation and would step in to help if they were in real danger.
They didn't return with their harvest until dawn. Although they were all covered in dirt, they looked quite energetic.
Ye Zhiyin had already cooked a pot of instant noodles in advance. When she saw them, she said, "Go wash up and change your clothes before you eat."
“Okay, sis, I’ll be right there.” Ye Xingzhu was the first to respond.
Lu Yan glanced at him and said gently, "Okay, you've worked hard."
Gu He and Meng Fuwen, standing nearby, thought: "...This old Lu/Ayan actually has this side to him, tsk tsk."
In the past few days, they have also noticed that Lu Yan treats Ye Zhiyin differently.
"It's not hard work, but you've been busy all night. Go on now," Ye Zhiyin said with a smile.
“Okay, eat first if you’re hungry, no need to wait for us,” Lu Yan said.
Ye Zhiyin sat down to the side. She wasn't hungry yet and was waiting for everyone to eat together.
Gu He and Meng Fuwen caught up with Lu Yan. Gu He sighed, "I never thought you'd end up like this."
"Yeah, Ayan, when did you become so considerate to us?" Meng Fuwen said with a teasing look.
Lu Yan curled the corners of his lips and said, "Am I not considerate to you usually?"
Upon hearing this, Meng Fuwen's lips twitched: "When did you become so shameless?"
Show them consideration? I've never heard him say a single considerate word.
"How would you like to show your appreciation? Maybe by telling you that you had a hard night?" Lu Yan patted the two men on the shoulder and said with a smile.
Gu He and Meng Fuwen both shuddered at the same time.
"No, you don't need to be so considerate to us. It's fine as it is." Meng Fuwen really wasn't used to his behavior.
Gu He nodded and said, "Yes, you were always a good person."
He reserved this thoughtfulness for Ye Zhiyin, so that they could tease and gossip about it; they didn't need to feel it.
Seeing their reactions, Lu Yan smiled and said nothing more.
After they finished washing up, changed their clothes, and sat down at the table, everyone started eating once they were all present.
"You all seem to be in good spirits; you've had quite a bit of fun," Ye Zhiyin said.
“Sister, we have collected quite a few crystal cores,” Ye Xingzhu said.
Lu Yan looked up at Ye Zhiyin and said, "Last night, apart from the soldiers, there weren't many people helping us, so we had a pretty good harvest."
“Yes, I reckon there would have been quite a few casualties over there if we hadn’t gone to help last night,” Meng Fuwen said.
Ye Xingzhu smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, the officer who was leading us before we left was quite sincere and came to thank us specifically."
“They’re from the First Base in the Capital, and we should see them again in the future,” Gu He added.
When they heard that they were going to the First Base, Huo Shang invited them to come along, but the group declined, knowing that more people meant more trouble.
Ye Zhiyin felt it was better for her to leave, since there were so many survivors over there, and there would definitely be trouble.
After taking a nap, the group woke up to find the convoy gone, and they continued their journey.
After traveling all day, they finally arrived at the first base just before dark.
At this time, there was still a queue at the door. They all had superpowers, so the inspection was not so complicated, and they did not need to hand over their supplies.
They all agreed to report only one superpower, with Ye Zhiyin and Lu Yan not revealing their spatial abilities.
The base requires users to exchange supplies for points to live on. The accommodations are divided into several areas, and there is also a special place to buy things with points.
Area A consists entirely of villas, inhabited by people with high social standing and numerous points. Area B is primarily for those with decent points. Area C is the cheapest, with several people sharing a room.
Of course, there are also people who can't afford to pay the points and end up setting up tents outside the houses.
There's a trading hall in the base where everyone exchanges points. There are also tasks posted by the base that you can accept and complete to earn points.
Ye Zhiyin and Ye Xingzhu exchanged for a two-bedroom apartment in Zone B and settled in. Lu Yan and the other two also settled in first.
The house was unfinished; there was a bed in each of the two rooms, a small bathroom, and nothing else.
After washing up, Ye Zhiyin went to her room, put away the simple bed, and then put two large beds that had been made up. She then lay down on them.
Finally, she was no longer on the road; all she wanted to do now was get a good night's sleep.
Everyone shared the same thought. Although they would stop to spend the night on the road, they didn't sleep very soundly.
After all, you have to be vigilant at all times when you're outside, and you have to get up immediately if anything happens, so you definitely don't sleep very well.
Now that we're at the base, at least I can get a good night's sleep.
When Ye Zhiyin woke up again, she looked at the bright sun outside and realized it was already the afternoon of the next day.
She walked out of the room, but Ye Xingzhu's room was empty. She didn't know where he had gone; he must have gone to the next room.
Lu Yan and his two companions lived next door in a three-bedroom apartment, with one room for each person.
Just as she was thinking of getting something to eat, the door opened from the outside, and Ye Xingzhu walked in: "Sister, you're awake? They've made dinner next door, I was just about to come and call you."
"You got up a long time ago?"
"It won't be long, let's go over and talk."
Ye Zhiyin followed Ye Xingzhu to the next room and saw several dishes laid out on the table in the small living room, all of which were easy-to-preserve foods.
"You've arrived, please sit down," Meng Fuwen said.
Ye Zhiyin and Lu Yan sat down at the table, and Lu Yan said to her, "We took a tour of the base this morning."
"How is it? What's going on here?" Ye Zhiyin asked, even though she already knew some of the details from the plot.
Lu Yan looked at her and slowly said, "Most of the people in the base either form their own teams to go out on missions or join the military. I'd like to ask you, would you be willing to team up with us?"
“Yes, there are only three of us. With you siblings, there are more of us, and we’ve also developed a tacit understanding along the way,” Meng Fuwen added.
Ye Zhiyin looked at the group of people, seeing that they were all waiting for her reply.
She still wanted to ask the other party involved: "Ye Xingzhu, what do you think?"
"Sister, I'll definitely listen to you, but I really want to be with everyone," Ye Xingzhu said, scratching her head.
"Hmm, I have no objection either." Ye Zhiyin had gotten to know the group and realized they could still form a team.
Lu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that she wouldn't agree and they would see each other less often in the future.
