At that time, Long Yubai, who was disliked by Yan Fangyu, was standing on the roof of a vehicle with Lin Ruifeng standing behind him.
Lin Ruifeng said to him, “Yuan Tianxing and his people did head toward Hangzhou City. I also heard that they are in the city now. Also, Wu Chengyue seems to have chosen that direction this time as well. But, we’re not sure that if he’s in the city too.”
Long Yubai blinked as held one hand before his chest, the other raised to rub his chin.
“The same direction?” he said, “We came from that direction. It looks like we’ve missed them. In this case, let’s head back.”
After saying that, he jumped off the car and headed to his RV while saying, “Bring me the map of Zhe Province.”
“Yes, sir!” a soldier responded, then hurriedly turned to find the map. Meanwhile, Lin Ruifeng jumped off the car too, and followed behind him.
Before long, the soldier came back with a map and handed it to Long Yubai.
Long Yubai took over the map and walked into his RV. He turned on the light, then spread the map on his lap and began observing Hangzhou and Jiaxing on it.
“Hangzhou is such a big city… It won’t be easy for us to find them. Did you find someone who’s been to their base and left afterward?” He asked a question while reading the map.
Lin Ruifeng shook his head and replied, “Not yet! But, I heard that they were still hiring in Sea City Base, and that they’ll send the workers to their new base batch by batch. We just don’t know about their exact schedule yet.”
Long Yubai thought for a moment and then asked, “Are we just waiting here now?”
Lin Ruifeng said, “Maybe we can move toward Hangzhou City, then send out all our intelligence squads to collect information in different areas. We’re already in Sea City Base’s territory. We can’t linger here for too long. We might as well leave a squad in this place. When Yuan Tianxing’s people come back here to pick up the next batch of workers, our people will tail them.”
Long Yubai nodded and said, “Good, let’s do what you said! Since we can’t stay here for too long, we should leave Sea City first.”
Lin Ruifeng nodded and asked, “Now?”
Long Yubai responded, “Yeah! Didn’t you say that we can’t linger in other people’s place for too long? Are we gonna wait for them to show us out tomorrow?”
“I’ll gather the troops right now,” Lin Ruifeng turned and got out of the RV while speaking.
…
In Hades Base after Long Yubai left, Yang Jianhua was in his own room, holding a zombie nucleus. He was sitting on the bed with his legs crossed, absorbing the nucleus. The energy contained in the nucleus was flowing endlessly into his body through his palm.
A great amount of energy circulated in his body and gathered inside his brain at last.
He had spent three whole days absorbing the energy, and now was his most critical moment.
An hour later, his entire body began shaking. Veins stood out from his face, and his pretty face suddenly twisted. A wave of energy escaped his body, quaking the entire room and all the furniture pieces in it.
Then, that energy went back into his body.
Only after that did he relax his tightened face and opened his slender eyes. A bright light shone in those half narrowed eyes.
He got off the bed and stood straight, then spread his fingers. After spending a moment sensing the energy inside him, he gave a faint smile.
He raised his brows and couldn’t help but let the smile on his face grow bigger.
He had finally entered level-seven, the realm of truly powerful beings! He was so delighted, because he never needed to bend in front of Long Yubai again!
He took a deep breath, then walked out of his room.
“Tell Liu Yu to come to my study room!” He ordered the soldier who guarded by his door.
“Yes, sir!” One of the two guards immediately turned and left.
Yang Jianhua headed toward his study room, and the other guard followed behind him. He went down to the second floor, then turned and walked into the study room. Behind him, the soldier guarded outside the door.
Soon, a man came over along with the soldier who had left earlier. Seeing the guard before the door of the study room, the two immediately figured out that Yang Jianhua was already inside.
Liu Yu quickly walked to the door and knocked on it.
“Come in!” Yang Jianhua’s voice was heard from the room.
Liu Yu turned the door handle and pushed the door open.
Yang Jianhua was sitting behind his desk. Many files and lists were placed on the desk. At that moment, he was reading one of those files.
Liu Yu came in and closed the door, then walked to the desk and said, “Chief, have you made it?”
“Em,” Yang Jianhua didn’t raise his head to look at Liu Yu, and only responded blandly.
Liu Yu was his most trustworthy subordinate. Therefore, Yang Jianhua didn’t plan to lie to him about the breakthrough that he just achieved. He would let the others know that he was a level-seven powerful being soon enough anyway.
“Have you sorted all the things? Exactly how many things did Long Yubai take away?” He raised his head and asked Liu Yu.
Liu Yu nodded, took a step forward and rummaged through the files on his desk, then pulled out a file and handed it to Yan Jianhua while saying, “There are what he took away.”
Yang Jianhua took it over and opened it to read carefully.
Liu Yu found a few name lists on the desk and spread them in front of Yang Jianhua as he said, “This is the name list of all the current members of this base and their families. These are the people who have been sent to Earth Dragon Base by Long Yubai. Most of them are young. There are about five thousand of them in total.”
Yang Jianhua’s face turned sullener and sullener as he said coldly, “He brought all these precious supplies to Earth Dragon Base. It seems that he wanted to destroy this place since long ago. It’s okay. When I get to Earth Dragon Base, I’ll bring back everything that belongs to me. Long Yubai can never make me work for him again.”
“Then… are we really going to destroy this base? What about the people here? Even though we have been letting those old, ill, and weak people die on purpose recently, there’re still over thirty-thousand of them living in the base. Except for them, we also have about sixty-thousand of soldiers and superpowered people. What should we do with those people?”
“Doesn’t Long Yubai want us to kill all those useless burdens? Kill them then. They should hate Long Yubai for their death. Leave the families of those soldiers for the last. Don’t kill them just yet. How are we gonna make those soldiers work for us without their families?” Yang Jianhua sneered and said while reading the name lists.
“Will Long Yubai be unhappy about that?” Long Yubai frowned slightly and asked.
“Of course, he will! Those soldiers will consume his food. Do you think he’ll be willing to feed them?” Yang Jianhua snorted.
