Yu Yongyi's expression flickered uncertainly, and after a long moment, he calmed down.
He slowly lay down again and ordered, "The headquarters must be well-guarded. Merge the other three bases over here; we won't need them anymore."
Yu Wenhan was taken aback. He thought he was going to deal with Xu Qian or something...
Now he was backing down?
"Director Yu, our losses will be too severe."
Yu Yongyi closed his eyes and said faintly, "Leave now and do as I say. We will get out as soon as possible."
Yu Wenhan could only comply.
After he left, Yu Yongyi opened his eyes. A trace of ruthlessness flashed in his cloudy gaze.
Xu Qian, it's you again!!
She had been opposing him time and time again.
This time, once he succeeded in his upgrade, no matter the cost, he would utterly destroy this woman.
"Ayu, increase the dosage. I want to leave the experimental chamber as soon as possible."
"Yes."
Hope Base.
In broad daylight, Xu Qian was in the villa, her right arm held tightly by He Yueyue, and her left calf was being clung to by the little zombie, refusing to let go.
The little zombie grew exceptionally fast in the space.
Within a month, its height had reached that of a five-year-old child. Apart from the obvious traits of zombies, it truly didn't resemble one.
This was because... it was too fond of acting spoiled.
Although the little zombie couldn't speak, it would throw a tantrum if it disagreed, demanding to be taken out of the space.
Of course, Xu Qian would also let it out to roam sometimes.
As for He Yueyue, after half a month of interaction, her friendship level was already maxed out.
The grass on her body had also healed, yet she stubbornly refused to let go, wanting to accompany Xu Qian on missions.
"Sister Qian, my dear Sister Qian, please take me with you. I'm so good at killing zombies.
You know, with me by your side, it'll definitely be twice the result with half the effort."
Xu Qian secretly rolled her eyes. Although He Yueyue was capable, her courage was as small as a mosquito's.
The moment she saw any disgusting insects or animals, she would run without a second thought.
It was less troublesome for Xu Qian to be alone.
"I have other things to attend to. If you're bored, take on those remaining two five-star missions."
He Yueyue pouted and whispered, "What else do you have to do? Isn't it just bombing bases and chopping up mutants?"
Xu Qian's brow furrowed, and she called out coldly, "He Yueyue!!"
He Yueyue immediately let go, her heart trembling.
Truth be told, she was a little afraid of Xu Qian...
"Go to the mission hall on the right. If you don't complete those two five-star missions today, don't bother coming back to see me."
"Yes!!"
He Yueyue ran and skipped out. Did Sister Qian agree to take her along?
Xu Qian secretly breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the little zombie at her feet, placing it on the sofa.
The little zombie immediately wrapped its arms around her and refused to let go.
Its two orb-like orange eyes stared at her.
"What exactly do you want?"
"Roar roar roar—"
Xu Qian: ...
This thing wasn't as intelligent as Xu Lüzhi. No matter how she taught it, it wouldn't speak.
However, it had only two needs.
1. Drink blood.
2. Go out and play.
Xu Qian had an idea, and a small bottle appeared in her hand, which she offered to it.
Unexpectedly, the little zombie shook its head and pushed it away.
It just wanted... to go out and play?
Xu Qian waved her hand and directly put it into her space to play by itself.
Suddenly, a dark figure flashed in front of Xu Qian.
"Miss Xu, various bases in G Province have been attacked. The leaders have instructed you to go to the conference room to discuss countermeasures."
Xu Qian's brow furrowed, and she said coldly, "Today's incident?"
"Yes, the news just came in."
The young woman leaned back on the sofa, her expression slightly serious, her brows furrowed.
Even with a troubled look, she was so beautiful that one would want to reach out and smooth the lines between her brows, resolving her worries.
