: 259 Forest City Base (Third)
The driver stuck his head out of the car window, looked at them vigilantly, and quietly held the gun in his hand. If the other party suddenly attacked, he could fight back at any time! He asked, "Are you from out of town?"
Bai Ye already knew about Li Qingyun from Fang Yuxin's mouth at this time, so he stopped the car, stuck his head out and said to the other party: "We want to go to your security base to find someone, do you know what the rules are here?"
The driver and his companion looked at each other, and then said to Bai Ye: "In order to enter the base, everyone must pay a primary crystal core. If you are an ability user or have any specialties, the crystal core can be waived. In addition, those who enter People have to have a blood test. We're getting ready to go back to the base, and if you're all right, just follow."
Bai Ye thought that other people might not have crystal cores, so he asked for help: "If you can't hand over the crystal cores, can you keep an account?"
When he said that, the driver was a little stunned. It stands to reason that people who can pass through the encirclement of zombies are all powerful. If these people can come over, how can they not take out the crystal core? He was suspicious. However, he did not ask this question, only said: "It's okay to keep accounts, but you have to work to pay off the debt."
In fact, the management of the safety zone where they are located is relatively strict, or it can be said to be very harsh. Those ordinary people who can't get a crystal nucleus can only be reduced to the lowest coolies, working day and night, and they can't eat enough every day.
But if you have the strength, you can live well in the safe zone.
So he didn't tell Bai Ye what he said. He had already seen it. Except for the better car that Bai Ye drove, the other cars had become tattered. Obviously, the people inside had no strength.
He understood what Bai Ye meant, and also knew that the people behind him were not the same as Bai Ye.
The road behind is relatively stable, because this is already the periphery of the security base, and people come out every day to do tasks to hunt zombies, so there are not many zombies. They only encountered dozens of lonely zombies along the way. Before Bai Ye could make a move, the people in the truck immediately dealt with them.
The strength of these zombies is not strong. For the people in the truck, they are simply here to send crystal cores. They are naturally unwilling to give the benefits to Bai Ye and the others.
Soon, they saw the outline of the safe zone. The first thing I saw was a protective wall ten meters high. The wall was not very high at first, but after the zombie siege incident, the leader of the base asked people to reinforce the protective wall every day, which gradually made it the current scale.
Outside the protective wall, many fortifications were also built, all to restrain the zombies from attacking the city.
They went all the way to the gate, the truck went first, Bai Ye and the others followed. After entering, they found that there was a row of rooms on the right side of the road. The first room was used to fill in information, the second room was used for testing, and the latter was an isolation room, which was mainly used to isolate those infected with the zombie virus.
Fang Yuxin released his spiritual sense to check, and found that people were locked in the isolation room, their limbs were fixed to the wall, and there was a gag in their mouths to prevent them from suddenly turning into zombies and hurting others.
Although these people looked pitiful, the people above at least gave them a chance to awaken, instead of killing them directly, which was considered kinder.
On the left side of the road is a temporary parking lot. After Bai Ye and the others entered, they followed the other party's instructions to park the car next to them, and then they had to fill in the information and take a blood test.
Fang Yuxin had already peeked at it just now. The so-called blood test is to squeeze out the blood and drip it on a special test strip. If the test strip turns black, it means that it is infected with the zombie virus. If it does not change, it means that it has not been infected.
Fang Yuxin felt that this method was quite novel, and couldn't help but wonder who invented it.
For safety, iron fences and tempered glass were installed on the windows, similar to the arrangement of bank windows. A small semi-circular window was opened under the iron fences and tempered glass to deliver materials.
The other party glanced at them first, and seeing their eyes were fresh, he said humbly, "New here? Come fill in the identity information first." After he finished speaking, he put a form into the small window. Bai Ye took out the form, picked up the signature pen beside him, and quickly filled it out.
The form that needs to be filled in is probably name, gender, age, former residence, whether it is a person with abilities, the type and level of abilities, and specialties.
Bai Ye used a pseudonym, and the type and level of his abilities were also concealed. He used the breath-holding technique to restrain the energy fluctuations in his body, and he was not afraid that others would see it.
He deliberately looked at it just now. There were forty-five people in the truck. Except one was a second-level ability user, the others were all first-level ability users. These people dared to stay out so late, which shows that they are relatively sure of their own strength. This means that in this safe base, the first-level ability users are already considered to be good strength, and the number of second-level ability users should still be small.
If he fills in the second-level ability, it will inevitably attract the attention of all parties in the base, and it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble. He and Fang Yuxin are here to find someone, there is no need to get too involved with other people in this security base.
Fang Yuxin, like him, also concealed his strength and disguised himself as a first-level ability user. Moreover, she also deliberately wrote her ability as the fire type, not the wood type she has always claimed.
Because of their ability to heal and spawn plants, the wood-type power user is very special. Even if it is a primary or even a first-level power user, once it appears, it will attract the attention of all forces. Fang Yuxin didn't want to cause trouble for herself, so she simply pretended to be a fire-type ability user.
After the two completed, the others followed to fill in the information. Liu Zhenglin and Zhao Yan had just awakened, and their aptitudes were not good, so the energy fluctuations on their bodies were very weak and could not be easily detected. So they hesitated, and both chose no.
They didn't plan to stay in this security base, but wanted to follow Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye. Naturally, there was no need to expose the awakening.
When other people filled in the information, when they saw whether they chose it or not, they were suddenly in shock, but they didn't dare to expose it directly. They just had their own thoughts in their hearts.
After filling in the information, the form was taken back by the clerk inside. Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin guessed right. After seeing the information registered on it, he didn't show much concern, although his attitude towards them was kinder.
Obviously, although the first-level ability user has some strength, it is not enough to attract people's attention.
And when he saw that other people were ordinary people, his attitude toward others became cold, which was completely different from when he faced Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin.
After registering the information, you have to pay the crystal nucleus. Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin naturally did not lack primary crystal nuclei, but it was difficult for others. Zhao Yan and Liu Zhenglin had already killed zombies on the road, and they were able to take out the crystal core. The grandfather and grandson surnamed Qian could also take it out, but the rest couldn't. Seeing that the clerk's face became more and more ugly, they could only look at Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin for help.
The two were indifferent and didn't mean to help at all. The primary crystal nucleus is dug out from the brain of the primary zombie, and the strength of the primary zombie is not strong, and ordinary people can kill it. Take Qian Lang and Zhao Liang, for example, since Qian Lang found a way to kill zombies, he will start killing zombies whenever he has the chance. Zhao Liang is Zhao Yan's nephew. Although he is spoiled, he still kills zombies after seeing Zhao Yan at his age. , he also endured his fear and followed up to help, and joined hands with Zhao Yan to kill some.
The others are still young, in their 20s and 30s, upright and strong, but they don't dare to do anything, and hide to the side whenever a zombie appears. For such a person, how could Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin help?
It was Liu Zhenglin and Zhao Yan who got together and helped them hand over the crystal core.
At first, the clerk saw that they couldn't take out the crystal nucleus, and his face was not very good. When he saw Zhao Yan and Liu Zhenglin's actions, he took a few more glances at them. Then, he noticed the faint energy fluctuations in the two of them.
His expression changed suddenly, and he asked, "Liu Zhenglin, Zhao Yan, since you are power users, why are you hiding it?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Liu Zhenglin and Zhao Yan changed slightly. Even though the two tried their best to restrain themselves, they were still seen by the clerk. The clerk will get such a reception errand. He is a human being, and he is also a first-level ability user. He didn't realize it at first, because the energy fluctuations in the two were too weak, so he ignored the past.
But later, when he saw the two taking out the crystal nucleus, he felt that something was wrong. After all, he has also seen those ordinary people in the safe zone. Those who can kill zombies seem to be strong and have a heroic spirit. The rest of those who cannot kill zombies look weak and have different temperaments.
Zhao Yan and Liu Zhenglin are both older and mild-mannered. They don't look like ordinary people who can kill zombies. So he took a closer look and found the energy fluctuations in them.
He was naturally indignant about the concealment of the two. However, thinking that the two are power users after all, he continued: "It is for your own good to let you fill in the information truthfully. Whether you are power users means the treatment you can enjoy in the base. I will not hide it. You, in the base, the treatment of power users and ordinary people is different."
When he said this, it seemed that Zhao Yan and Liu Zhenglin were a little ignorant of current affairs. The two looked at each other and Liu Zhenglin stood up and explained: "We just woke up, we have no ability at all, and we can't kill a few zombies. I am worried that the superhumans will go out to hunt zombies, so..."
His voice was getting lower and lower, and his head was buried slightly, playing a cowardly and incompetent ability user.
Zhao Yan also looked extremely embarrassed, and said with a trembling voice: "Yes, yes, we really can't kill a few zombies, so we just want to find a base to live a stable life, you... you just let us be ordinary People, we don't want those treatments." He waved his hand after saying that.
The clerk's face became more and more difficult to see when they saw that they were so unmotivated.
