115: Chapter 115 is finally back.

Xu Wanning thought for a moment, "Of course. As long as everyone still has their Supernatural ability, we will continue reinforcing. There might be floods and earthquakes in the future, but as long as we are fully prepared, we have nothing to fear."

"Yes." Zhou Ke turned and left.

Xu Wanning watched his back and smiled. She didn't know when it started, but Zhou Ke had become her right-hand man, and he handled many things in the base.

Besides him, there was also Jiang Heng, which saved her a lot of trouble.

Xu Wanning took the elevator to the third-floor cafeteria. The tables inside were almost full. Everyone was used to eating at fixed times; if they missed the time, there was no food.

They had almost finished eating when Zhang Yang and his group arrived, and there happened to be seats for them.

The kitchen hadn't prepared that much food, so they could only give them the boxed meals they had previously stored in the space, one for each person.

After Zhang Yang and his group received the boxed meals, they devoured them. Being able to eat such delicious boxed meals during this time was simply blissful.

"You guys eat first, we're going to get busy." Xu Wanning waved at Zhang Yang and led her people out.

Recently, they had been coming back to eat and take a lunch break before going out to kill zombies again. It was like going to work every day, but it felt much better than an actual job.

Lu Chengyue held Xu Wanning's hand and walked in the front, while Jiang Heng had already deployed drones to lure the zombies away.

The infrastructure team also started another round of reinforcement. Several 20-meter-high walls were installed around every building to ensure that no buildings would be swallowed by floods when they came.

The entire Jin City Central District currently looked like a maze; if there were no signs, it would really not be easy to find one's way out.

"Sister Ning, the zombies are here, let's go." Jiang Heng ran over happily and showed Xu Wanning the screen; a large number of zombies were gathering towards The Square.

"Let's go!" Xu Wanning raised a small flag and led everyone towards The Square.

Two months later.

"Base Leader, all the zombies in Jin City have been cleared out, and the survivors who recently came to seek refuge in Jin City have all been settled."

Zhang Yang, Zhou Ke, and Jiang Heng walked into the office.

Xu Wanning, who was sitting in Lu Chengyue's lap, smiled, "Very good. Tally the levels and numbers of the Ability Users; we are going to fight our way back to Jing City!"

She believed that The Great Leader must be waiting for her.

Zhou Ke placed the notebook on Xu Wanning's desk, "Currently, the base has a total of 3,525 survivors, including 1,367 Ability Users—987 SS-rank Ability Users and 380 S-rank Ability Users. There are 1,079 ordinary survivors who can fight."

Xu Wanning looked at it, "Divide the Ability Users and ordinary soldiers into two batches. You will be responsible for the batch staying behind, Zhou Ke, and the other batch will come with me to fight back to Jing City."

"Yes!" Zhou Ke immediately grouped everyone according to their Supernatural ability and level, with 1,223 people in each group.

Three days later, Xu Wanning and her group appeared on the outskirts of Jing City.

The number of zombies in Jing City was still high, but they had all been placed in designated zones. As long as the number of zombies did not decrease, no new zombies would respawn.

Just as Xu Wanning had suggested before, many large pits had been dug, and each pit contained thousands of zombies.

"I didn't expect them to actually do it." Xu Yu looked at the zombies roaring at them from the large pit, staring with delight as if he were looking at pets being raised.

"Currently, this is the only way to ensure no one dies, but I don't know if there will be hidden dangers."

With a large volume of zombies together, they would devour each other, and over time, higher-level zombies might appear.

If no one was keeping watch to discover any abnormalities, something might go wrong.

However, that was no longer her concern. When things were over, she could mention it to The Great Leader, and as for how he handled it, that would be his business.

She no longer belonged to Jing City and wouldn't overreach.

Arriving at the gates of Jing City, a squad of soldiers was guarding the entrance, "Who are you?"

Xu Wanning walked to the front, "You don't recognize me?"

When she left, she didn't state the reason, and The Great Leader didn't announce it either. The group running the Underground Research Institute certainly wouldn't announce the reason, so she could still get by on her reputation.

"It's, it's Xu Wanning! It's Xu Wanning!" Someone recognized her and shouted loudly.

Xu Wanning glanced at Jiang Heng. Jiang Heng extended his mental energy to the maximum range and shook his head. It seemed the Underground Research Institute was further inside.

"We're back from a mission." Xu Wanning waved the mission receipt in her hand. This thing could be easily forged, and the soldiers wouldn't actually check her.

"Please, please enter." The soldiers cleared the way, and the group walked in impressively.

Jiang Heng hid in the crowd to search for the location of the Underground Research Institute, while Xu Wanning and the others exchanged polite, insincere greetings with people around them who recognized them.

"Where have you guys been? We haven't seen you for a long time."

"Exactly, we thought you had left Jing City and weren't coming back."

"We took on a big mission that took a while. We just finished and only got back today."

"Yes, yes, yes, a mission to clear out zombies."

The news of their return quickly spread throughout all of Jing City.

In the office building, in The Great Leader's office, The Great Leader leaned back in his chair and looked out the window, "Finally back."

In another villa, several men in suits sat together, "That Xu Wanning is back again. I have a feeling she's coming for us."

"What are you afraid of? We have so many Ability Users now. Even if they are all only C-rank, we can win just by numbers. How many people does she have? A human wave tactic can kill them."

"That's true, hahaha, come, cheers!"

"Cheers!"

Steward Zhang Song, standing to the side, lowered his head slightly. Laugh all you want; you won't be able to laugh for much longer. Miss Xu, welcome back.

"Sister Ning, I found them. There are four in total: one in the Central District, one each in Districts 2 and 3, and another one in District 6." Jiang Heng reported the data.

"Divide into four groups; we'll round them all up in one go." Xu Wanning instructed Jiang Heng.

"Miss Xu, The Great Leader sent me to assist you." A squad of soldiers appeared in front; roughly estimated, there were 1,000 of them, including 300 Ability Users, all of whom were SS-rank.

"Let's go!"

One hour later, explosions rang out across Jing City.

"What's going on? Have the zombies appeared again?"

"Run, hurry up and hide!"

The unsuspecting survivors quickly took cover, and for a moment, there was some chaos.

Xu Wanning stood in the Central District, looking at the survivors rescued by the soldiers with indifference in her eyes. She started a live stream; anyone who had followed her before could see it.

Fortunately, her account hadn't been cleared by the base, and the survivors in the live chat were stunned.

[What is this place? How can there be so many people.]

[Did you see the needle marks on their arms? It's too terrifying.]

[Yeah, yeah, could this be some underground trafficking organization?]

Xu Wanning spoke up, "This is an Underground Research Institute in the Central District of Jing City, specifically researching how Ability Users obtain their Supernatural ability. They have cruelly murdered many Ability Users. There are actually four such laboratories under Jing City."

"Currently, all four Underground Research Institutes have been destroyed. To the masterminds, listen well: I, Xu Wanning, am back. Wait for your deaths."
