Chapter 948: Chapter 948: Changes at E City Base

Lu Wang tilted his head and looked at the small fireball in Lu Guanhai’s hand, then spat a small flame from his mouth into his own palm.

Lu Hao immediately felt his son was a bit unbelievable. Where did he learn this from?

“Could it be that he got inspired by some zombies spitting fire from their mouths?”

Lin Cheng crouched down and looked at little Lu Wang with curiosity. What was going on in this child’s little head?

“I think it’s okay. Wangwang is amazing, better than others,”

Su Jin quickly praised Lu Wang when she noticed he was a bit unhappy.

Everyone’s special ability is different, she felt that a person’s ability is like their nature and shouldn’t be suppressed or forcibly changed.

“Haha, Wangwang is really amazing.”

Lu Wang’s previously pouting mouth immediately broke into a smile. Mommy said he was amazing, so he must be amazing, even Dad listens to Mommy!

“Brother is awesome! Xixi is awesome too!”

Lu Xi was so happy that she made a Snow Spirit Flower bloom while hugging Su Jin beside her. Seeing Su Jin’s delighted expression, the two little ones happily played together.

“Are you really going to let him develop freely?”

Lu Hao asked Su Jin, thinking that spitting fire from the mouth might seem strange to others, right?

“Why not? I believe Wangwang will find the most suitable path for himself in the future,”

Su Jin said with a smile.

“Okay, I’ll listen to you,”

Lu Hao looked at the happy Lu Wang and put aside the idea of teaching him anything just now.

Being different is just being different. Besides, there are already so many different things around him…

Having almost devoured all the zombies at the Freedom Dawn Base, Xiao Cui was also very happy in their space. Su Jin allowed it to pop out from her shoulder, performing various exciting movements, even making the family eating breakfast at the table laugh.

“Even Man-eating Flower considers Mutated Zombies as Ordinary Zombies and eats them now, that’s quite something,”

Huang Yunxiang said.

“Compared to Ordinary Zombies, Mutated Zombies are more nourishing,”

Su Jin knew Xiao Cui also preferred Mutated Zombies, but she didn’t understand why Xiao Cui loved eating zombies so much. Could it be that it saw them as fertilizer or something?

…

When the family arrived at the E City Base, they found that the city walls had been significantly raised and thickened since before, and the city gates had almost completely changed.

Lian Jiyue did not expect the family to arrive at the E City Base so soon, but this helped him a lot since he was planning to go to the S City Base soon to trade a batch of supplies.

“Xiao Yue, being a Base Leader is tiring, isn’t it?”

Mao Qiqi asked while walking beside the tall Lian Jiyue.

Though Lian Jiyue’s body had recovered, his hair still retained its previous silver color. This hair color, however, softened some of his earlier sharpness, making him appear much gentler.

“Tiring, not as easy as killing zombies,”

Lian Jiyue replied honestly.

“What about Uncle Lian? He should be able to help you a bit, right?”

Lu Hao asked since it seemed that Lian Zongren hadn’t appeared.

“He… after I returned, he went to S City Base to find my mom…”

Lian Jiyue hesitated for a moment before replying helplessly.

“Looking for Luo Yan? Hahaha, I bet Luo Yan will still drive him away,”

Huang Yunxiang found it amusing how Lian Zongren seemed undeterred. It seemed that Lian Zongren had missed them on the way.

“Who knows, he never did care much for managing the base,”

Lian Jiyue replied, noting that this aspect of his father had not changed much.

“The E City Base is doing quite well now,”

Su Jin observed as she walked by, remembering how in previous visits, the base was overshadowed by the research institute’s rule where passersby wouldn’t dare to say too much, fearing saying the wrong thing might make them disappear from the base.

“During the time I was gone, the opposition faction from the research institute helped with managing, but they didn’t intend to keep running the base,”

Lian Jiyue said with a bitter smile.

The Han family was vying for power, but there were more people who actually had no interest in power, making the Han family’s efforts seem like a one-man show all along.

Pity for those sacrificed.

“Maybe the people in this base recognize you more,”

Lu Hao said, noting the respect and recognition in people’s eyes as they walked by Lian Jiyue.

No wonder when Lian Jiyue was in hibernation at the S City Base, people from the E City Base regularly went to visit him.

“Alright, let’s not talk about that anymore. Recently, we found 5 million crystal cores in the basement of the Han family’s other courtyard. I thought of you guys first,”

Lian Jiyue said with a smile.

“5 million, huh? Tsk tsk tsk,”

Lin Xiuyuan clicked his tongue, thinking how greedy the Han family members were.

“Don’t worry, we will exchange them for supplies with the E City Base,”

Su Jin said with a smile, welcoming any amount of crystal cores with open arms given their stock in the space.

Lian Jiyue had been drafting the supply exchange list for the past two days, and now that the family was here, it was a perfect time to present it.

Looking at the long list, Lu Hao raised an eyebrow, asking, “You also think winter is coming soon?”

The list included many supplies needed for winter.

“Better safe than sorry, after all, the base is rich,”

Lian Jiyue answered without a hint of pity.

“Xiao Yue seems like our little moneymaker,”

Mao Qiqi said, looking at the generous Lian Jiyue.

“What else? I have no use for so many crystal cores,”

Lian Jiyue laughed.

With the 5 million mentioned by Lian Jiyue plus the crystal cores already intended for trading, the E City Base’s transaction volume this time reached 9 million crystal cores, the highest ever.

“There are too many things, we might need some time to prepare,”

Su Jin said, looking at the densely packed list. Luckily, they had replenished their space’s supplies during their half-year stay in Y Autonomous Region.

“I’ll arrange the lodging, and you can take your time preparing,”

Lian Jiyue called someone Lu Hao found familiar.

The person who came in was Song Qin, the Water Element Ability User who had once helped them on the road before.

“Long time no see, I’ll take you to where you’ll be staying,”

Song Qin said with a smile.

She had recently applied for the assistant position to the Base Leader, and after Lian Jiyue reviewed her resume, he had immediately decided on her.

She had asked Lian Jiyue about it afterward, and he simply replied with one sentence:

Because he believed she could distinguish right from wrong, was bold and meticulous, and most crucially, she wouldn’t ask questions she shouldn’t.

Along with her during the application was Fu Li, the Space Element Ability User who escaped the small base with her. Upon realizing Lian Jiyue had chosen Song Qin immediately, Fu Li’s face did not look pleased.
