46: Chapter 46 Departure, Back to the Spaceship

After hearing this, Liliya's eyes welled up with tears as she said, "Thank you, I will serve you well."

"I can also research some strange things; I was one of the main forces in researching the Longevity Potion."

Captain Qin Hao nodded. This Liliya could hang out with the Life Representative Life Commissioner Xu Jiajia and tinker with potions and such.

During the following time, Kelinnan led Captain Qin Hao and his group to a basement.

That basement was extremely secure, almost airtight. No wonder the zombies couldn't break through.

Kelinnan directly gave the three bottles of potion they had developed to Captain Qin Hao.

He then said, "These trees that are over a thousand years old indeed hide staggering secrets. We extracted them layer by layer from the genetic level of many trees to develop these three bottles."

Their leader didn't have the fortune to enjoy them, so they ended up benefiting Captain Qin Hao and the others instead.

Kelinnan opened a large door. At a glance, countless trees were piled up here. If it weren't for the zombie rampage, they would probably still be continuously transporting timber even now.

Looking at the staggering quantity, Captain Qin Hao said in surprise, "So many trees... just how much primeval forest was cut down?"

Liliya's eyes dimmed. Ultimately, they were also accomplices, since they were the ones helping the leader with the research.

She said, "Later data from all sides indicated that nearly eighty percent of the primeval forest trees were felled."

Rao Shuqing and the others' lips twitched. No wonder even the heavens couldn't stand it; they were truly ruthless.

At this moment, Captain Qin Hao's True Sight Eye actually saw a treasure chest under these trees.

[There is a treasure chest pressed under the trees; it should be unnoticed by anyone.]

He was overjoyed and began to put these trees into his system space.

With so many trees, if he just collected a batch at random, it would probably be enough for his future use.

[Obtained Wood × 100, Obtained Wood × 80...]

These trees would go to waste if not used. He couldn't let such treasures be spoiled, so he planned to collect them all.

Zhao Zihan and the others were not surprised. They had long known that Captain Qin Hao's space was either incredibly vast or the materials automatically shrank; either way, it was almost impossible to fill.

Kelinnan and the others, however, were quite shocked. This was too terrifying—to be able to stuff in so much Wood.

[Obtained Wood × 200]

[Obtained Bronze Treasure Chest × 1]

[Obtained Silver Treasure Chest × 1]

Captain Qin Hao collected for a long time and ended up gathering a full million pieces of Wood. Now he really didn't have to worry about using it.

To his surprise, these treasure chests were really well-hidden, with two tucked away under the Wood. He had struck it rich this time.

It made sense; the destruction of the Gemini Star was mainly due to the Wood. Each of these towering trees was a treasure-level item.

Finally, Captain Qin Hao and the others took Liliya and bid farewell to Kelinnan and his group. As for their food, Captain Qin Hao didn't take it, leaving it for their future lives.

He didn't know if Kelinnan and the others would survive in the future.

If they successfully survived, the two men and two women could actually propagate their descendants.

...

Inside a small shop, Zhao Zihan proactively took Liliya's hand and said, "Liliya, don't be sad. From now on, you're one of us. Being with us is just like being at home."

"O-okay," Liliya replied, nodding with some discomfort.

They were all quite enthusiastic toward this new member, wanting her to integrate quickly into the group, since they would be living together from now on.

Captain Qin Hao took a look. This Liliya seemed a bit shy, somewhat similar to Lin Mengyao.

He looked at Lin Mengyao again. This girl really didn't like to talk, acting like a little wallflower.

"Little Meng Yao is quite something, actually taming a tiger that's gained sentience. Great job," Captain Qin Hao praised. He knew Lin Mengyao liked being praised, and this would help build her confidence.

Lin Mengyao nodded like a chick pecking at grain and said, "Thank you for the praise, Lord Captain."

Lin Mengyao was very happy. Lord Captain praised her! And Lord Captain had been paying attention to her all along. Lord Captain was so good.

She happily stroked the big tiger's head as if she were petting a cat, leaving the other girls stunned.

Su Nian asked cautiously, "Meng Yao, can I also pet this big cat? This big cat won't bite, will it?"

Su Nian actually had a very good impression of Lin Mengyao and would chat with her sometimes; perhaps it was a case of beautiful women being drawn to each other.

Seeing others acknowledge her big cat, Lin Mengyao nodded happily. She smiled sweetly and said, "You can, Niannian. The Little Tiger is very well-behaved; it shouldn't bite."

Su Nian felt a bit panicked. What did she mean by 'shouldn't bite'? I want an 'absolutely won't bite.'

Nevertheless, she gathered her courage and walked over, stroking the big tiger's head.

After all, the Captain was here. If the big tiger went wild, he could knock it down with one punch.

Perhaps petting a cat was a fatal temptation for girls, as many went to talk to Lin Mengyao and then pet the cat. This made Lin Mengyao very happy.

[A dilapidated small shop; the food has already been completely corroded away.]

In the following time, Captain Qin Hao and the others continued scavenging, but resources were very scarce.

They were either completely corroded away or had already been scavenged by other teams.

*Bang!*

Captain Qin Hao punched a zombie's head to pieces.

After obtaining some supplies in a large shopping mall, they began their retreat because it was gradually getting dark, and they had been out for a long time.

Captain Qin Hao said, "Let's hurry back. Once it's dark, these zombies might go berserk. We need to return to the Spaceship for defense."

The girls nodded in agreement.

Although they had killed most of the zombies, there were still many remaining.

At this moment, Liliya looked at this returning team. There were over a dozen super-beauties, and Captain Qin Hao was the only male. She was curious—how exactly did he do it?

Her mind was active, especially regarding Lin Mengyao and Su Nian, who were as beautiful as goddesses.

Then there were the Counselor and Zhao Zihan; the curves of their chests made her feel a bit self-conscious.

Also, a question occurred to her: could it be that in the place they lived, Captain Qin Hao was also the only male?

Her face turned beet red as she whispered to herself, "Could all these girls be that Captain's women?"

She was somewhat shocked. Did they all go at once, or one by one?

Captain Qin Hao would never have guessed that a girl's imagination could be so rich, with so much mental activity in such a short time.

Finally, after nearly an hour of travel, Captain Qin Hao and the others returned to the Spaceship.

Seeing that the Spaceship was fine, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Having been out for so long, they were glad their home hadn't been raided.

At this time, Li Mengmeng, Ling Xiaoke, and the other girls had already come out to welcome them, seeing that Captain Qin Hao and the others had returned safely.

"Lord Captain, welcome home," the little lolita Li Mengmeng said happily.

She was wearing a pink little chef outfit with white silk stockings and leg rings, making her look extremely seductive.

"Captain, Instructor, you've worked hard~"

Then, Ling Xiaoke also walked out. She was wearing a light blue short skirt, looking graceful and lithe.

Captain Qin Hao's eyes widened, and he swallowed hard. Good grief, these two girls... why were they being so seductive? It was making him very heated!
