55: condition

When Lin Wan and the others followed Uncle Wang to the place where Yi Nian had disappeared,

they saw Shi Li holding the scarf, now soiled from being stepped on, releasing his psychic power to sense inch by inch, looking for any remaining clues.

His lips were tightly pursed, his handsome brows slightly furrowed, and his eyes were filled with tension and anxiety.

Shi Li was Level 8, only one level lower than Lin Wan.

His mind was unsettled at the moment, so his perception was also affected, and he found nothing for a long time.

Ji Chuan and the others carefully observed the surroundings but also found nothing.

Lin Wan took a deep breath, calmed herself down, closed her eyes, focused her spirit, and expanded the range of her perception all around.

Uncle Wang held his breath beside her. Although he was burning with anxiety, he dared not make a sound to disturb her.

He could only suppress the panic that had nowhere to settle in his heart and look at her with hope.

Finally, after more than twenty minutes, at a distance from their location, she discovered a wandering zombie with a faint trace of consciousness. In its mind, she heard the sound of a Child crying.

This zombie must have passed by this area when Yi Nian disappeared.

"Bei Bei... Yang Hong... Sun Ping!"

Lin Wan suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze icy cold.

Concentrating her mental energy for such a long time, and having to probe the consciousness of many passersby around, was extremely draining on her psychic power. Even for someone as powerful as Lin Wan, beads of sweat still broke out on her forehead.

Shen Mo Chi wiped the sweat for her and took out the chocolate he always carried.

Lin Wan finished it in two or three bites and then drank a cup of spiritual spring water.

She regretted it deeply at this moment. Why had she stopped Mo Chi from finishing off Sun Ping with one strike back then!

Uncle Wang saw that her complexion was a bit pale and couldn't bear to press for details, so he just waited for her to recover for a moment.

Lin Wan composed herself and said coldly:

"I found her. People from the Guangming Base did this! It was Yang Hong! They used Bei Bei as bait to take Yi Nian away. I presume they have been waiting here for a long time, but they just happened to wait for Bei Bei to come out first."

Uncle Wang's eyes widened and he said anxiously:

"Those beasts! What should we do? I'll go fight them!"

Yue Yue stepped forward to support him.

"Uncle Wang, don't be impulsive. We will think of a way..."

Shi Li clenched his fists, feeling like a raging fire burning in his heart.

Every second delayed meant Nian Nian was in more danger. How many people coveted her Level 9 crystal core!

Not to mention that she also possessed the rare Invisibility Ability!

Shi Li, with a dark expression, walked straight toward the direction of the Guangming Base.

Shen Mo Chi stepped forward and stopped him.

"Shi Li, don't be impulsive for now..."

"Get out of the way!"

Ji Chuan frowned and walked over.

"Shi Li, we need to plan this carefully. Don't rush in and throw your life away. Moreover, you belong to The Authorities! Every move you make represents The Authorities' stance! Their treasonous matters haven't been fully investigated yet. Do you want to alert the enemy by beating the grass?"

Shi Li gritted his teeth, his handsome face full of worry.

"If necessary, I can withdraw from the Official Base! Plan carefully? If she falls into their hands, who knows what kind of torment she is suffering right now!"

Lin Wan and the others looked at him with some astonishment.

Everyone had noticed his unusual affection for Nian Nian.

They knew that the two of them chatted on the walkie-talkie whenever they had free time over the past two years.

But they never expected that he would go this far for her...

Given his status in The Authorities, his future was boundless! Furthermore, he was always the type who remained calm even if the sky fell, but now...

When it came to fate and feelings, sometimes you truly couldn't predict things.

Lin Wan sighed and stepped forward to look at him:

"Even if you quit, even if you are strong, you are alone. Against the Guangming Base, which possesses equally strong power, how much chance of winning do you think you have? Besides giving them your crystal core for free, what good will it do for rescuing Yi Nian?"

"Our worry for Yi Nian is no less than yours! How to rescue her quickly is what we need to do right now!"

Yue Yue also nodded.

"That's right, Shi Li, impulsiveness won't help at all!"

Shi Li clutched the soft scarf and finally calmed down.

Lin Wan looked ahead.

"I think their target definitely won't be just Nian Nian alone, but our entire Qingyun Squad. We were already planning to make a move against the Guangming Base in the next couple of days. I didn't expect them to be so impatient to die!"

"Since that's the case, let us go meet these people! I want to see who is manipulating all of this behind the scenes. Let's take this opportunity to expose this person and wipe out the Guangming Base in one fell swoop!"

"Zhao Yan, go to the Guangming Base now and pass a message to Yang Hong, tell him we will be paying a visit this afternoon!"

Lin Wan and Shen Mo Chi and the others knew that this matter could only be resolved by themselves.

Because this was a private matter between private bases. Unless they truly found traitors, The Authorities would only intervene.

This was an unwritten rule since the Apocalypse began.

After all, with so many private bases, although The Authorities managed and supervised the general direction, considering the current overall situation, they generally would not interfere in the private affairs of each faction.

To avoid unnecessary turmoil and dissatisfaction from the major bases.

So for now, they could only rely on the Qingyun Base to solve it themselves!

However, they had visited Japan before. Director Zhang still owed her two conditions, which could be used when necessary!

...

Guangming Base.

Shen Mingqian looked at the woman covered in scars below.

"This is?"

Yang Hong’s eyes were full of smugness, and he smiled somewhat obsequiously.

"Leader, she is Wang Yinian, seventeen years old, the daughter of Wang Peihua, a member of the Qingyun Squad, possessing a Level 9 Invisibility Ability!"
