38: daylight base
Lin Wan took out ready-made dishes from her space and set a full table.
Everyone planned while they ate.
It was past midnight, and the night was deep.
Their group set off from the base silently.
After receiving the news, Director Zhang said with his hands behind his back:
"Good. Keep a constant eye on them. If they need help, take our ability squad to assist them!"
Shi Li nodded.
"Understood."
Lin Wan and the others drove and soon arrived at this private base called Sunlight.
Although it was late at night, the main gate was still heavily guarded; Lin Wan could sense that they were all Level 6 Ability Users.
They had already formulated a plan.
In fact, thanks to Nian Nian's Invisibility Ability, things were much easier for them.
Every member of their squad had their own value; each was indispensable.
Since Wang Yinian's invisibility ultimate could only take one person in at a time and lasted for a total of two hours.
She would take Lin Wan in first. After finding a suitable spot, Nian Nian would bring the others in one by one. Once they regrouped, they would begin dismantling things from the inside.
To capture the bandits, one must first capture their leader; they had to find the key figures of the Mu Lin Family first, then everything would be easy.
"Mo Chi, you guys wait here for now. Yi Nian and I will go in first."
"Alright."
Yi Nian and Lin Wan held hands and, after turning invisible, headed inside the main gate.
Patrols here were strict, and they arrived just as the shift was changing.
Easily following the staff through the main gate, they headed all the way to the innermost area.
Lin Wan observed the base; although it was night, solar-powered streetlights were lit at regular intervals.
By the light, Lin Wan walked quickly while taking a cursory look around.
Not only was the area vast, but it was also built solidly and neatly.
Rows of houses for Ability Users were clean and tidy, with various zones clearly divided; everything was in perfect order.
No wonder so many people flocked here.
Even she felt like moving in after seeing it. However, she definitely would move in—along with all her companions from the Qingyun Squad.
Before coming, they had already studied the map of Sunlight Base sent by Shi Li.
The two went directly to the innermost official area, which was even more strictly guarded.
However, they were invisible, so no one could detect them.
Until they reached the villa marked on the map where the Mu Lin Family lived.
It was a full five stories, even more magnificent than villas before the Apocalypse.
An imposing gate, exquisite beams, and thick, soft carpets.
Lin Wan couldn't help but grumble inwardly.
Even in the Apocalypse, these Little Japs still know how to enjoy themselves.
Eating China's food, living on China's land, using China's resources, and yet still thinking of turning Chinese people into zombies. They're ugly, but their dreams are certainly "beautiful"!
Yi Nian took Lin Wan straight to the fifth floor, which was their family's office area.
At this time, the whole family was fast asleep.
The office area was pitch black and empty.
Lin Wan sat in their study and said to Yi Nian:
"Yi Nian, thank you for making these trips. Be safe. Go bring Brother Mo Chi and the others in; I'll wait for you here."
"Okay."
Although the base was very large and time was tight, they all had abilities, so they moved very quickly.
An hour and a half later, Yi Nian brought in Ji Chuan, who was the last in line.
Lin Wan collected all the documents in the office into her space.
Then, Yue Yue began releasing an anesthetic from her Poison-type Ability.
After twenty minutes, they cautiously headed toward the fourth floor.
In the master bedroom on the fourth floor, a girl in her early teens was sleeping; she was likely the daughter of the Mu Lin Family.
Terrifyingly, what was displayed in her room weren't princess dresses or dolls, but rows of real human skulls!
It seemed she was also a little freak.
The adjacent room was like an operating theater, filled with the corpses of mutant animals and zombies.
Tsk tsk, as expected of a perverted daughter raised by a perverted nation.
Going down to the third floor, a young couple was sleeping here.
Their abilities were strong, both at Level 6—one was a Healing-type, and the other was an Earth-type.
Just like the girl on the fourth floor, Yue Yue heavily poisoned them; if they didn't die, they would at least be paralyzed.
Reaching the second floor, this was the only floor with standing guards.
Because that person had been affected by Yue Yue's poison, they had long since fainted outside the door.
As she was about to push the door open, Lin Wan's heart suddenly pounded wildly; she felt that there would be something extraordinary behind this door.
She frowned and had everyone stand together holding hands. This way, in case of any emergency, they could immediately enter the space.
Pushing the door open, Mo Chi led the way, slowly walking inside.
Turning past the partition, they suddenly discovered a man in his forties or fifties sitting upright there!
He had a small black mustache under his nose, a square face, a hooked nose, and triangular eyes, making him look quite unpleasant.
At this moment, a cold, sinister smile played on his lips, and those triangular eyes, mostly showing their whites, glinted with a gloomy, fierce light that made one's hair stand on end.
The moment Lin Wan saw him, her heart skipped a beat.
He was a Level 8 Poison-type! He was actually one level higher than Yue Yue.
However, Yue Yue was also very formidable.
He must have been affected by Yue Yue's toxins while sleeping, so he was unable to move for the time being.
However, it was clear that he was purifying the toxins in his body! And he was about to succeed!
If a Poison-type Ability reached Level 9, one would be immune to all poisons. Now that he was at Level 8, Yue Yue's Level 7 toxins could only paralyze him for a brief moment!
"Die!"
Before they could think, the man waved his hand and attacked.
Toxins from a Level 8 ability—this was highly lethal!
Unable to dodge in time, Lin Wan instantly brought everyone into the space.
"So that's it! Their space can take in living beings! No wonder those undersea zombies disappeared without a trace and ended up in our Great Japanese Empire! So that's how!"
"Despicable children, using this to provoke conflict between our two nations and causing us heavy losses! I will not let you off..."
Hearing his teeth-gritting muttering, Lin Wan instantly understood something.
"Japan has met with a catastrophic disaster. He must have received the news. Now that we've entered the space right in front of him, he's figured it out."
"We can't let him send word to those people."
Seeing him recover and about to go out to call for help.
"Companions, the five of us Level 7 Ability Users are more than enough to deal with him. Capture him alive for me!"
With a thought from Lin Wan.
They reappeared in the same spot and unleashed their Ultimate Moves all at once.
This time, the commotion was not small.
Alarms immediately blared outside.
Yi Nian used her remaining Invisibility Ability to go over and give him a heavy blow to the head!
Looking at the man unconscious on the floor, Lin Wan finally felt relieved.
Shen Mo Chi used a Lightning Strike to sever the tendons in his hands and feet, and Ji Chuan tied him up and threw him into a corner.
This ensured that even after he woke up, he wouldn't be able to use his Poison-type Ability.
