493: Preparation, the last two days

"Knock, knock, knock~" The door knocked.

"Enter." Nie Fangping put away the star chart in front of him and looked towards the door.

He saw Linda, dressed smartly, walk in.

"Mr. Fang Ping, the Pathogen source crystal you requested earlier has been retrieved."

Linda was carrying a briefcase in her hand.

After her words fell, she placed the briefcase on the desk in front of Nie Fangping.

The box opened, and a dark red crystal appeared before his eyes, emitting a faint glow.

"Finally got it..." Looking at the item in front of him, Nie Fangping waved to Linda and said, "You can go and be busy."

The woman nodded and withdrew.

Reaching out to pick up the crystal from the box, Nie Fangping opened his System panel.

Tier 2 Swarm Larva could no longer rely on this item to upgrade again.

If he wanted to upgrade, he could only upgrade other templates.

Which one to upgrade?

After a slight pause, Nie Fangping put the Pathogen crystal into use.

Over the past few days, he had already done his own thinking.

Therefore, there was no hesitation.

"Ding~ Host consumed Pathogen source, successfully upgraded Tool Worm level."

[Tier 2 Tool Worm]: Can undertake more complex work, can survive on land, in the ocean, and in space.

After the crystal was consumed, Nie Fangping immediately saw the description of the Tool Worm.

Apart from being able to do more things, the Tool Worm gained a more powerful function.

Survival in space!

Indeed, it matched the direction he had guessed!

With this ability, his plan would be foolproof!

Feeling much more relaxed, Nie Fangping leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

His consciousness transferred from the human body shell and appeared on the insect's main body.

While flying in mid-air, Nie Fangping looked at the rocket launch base in front of him.

What was certain was that his current actions were definitely being watched by the Zombie Civilization.

It was just that he didn't know if there would be a Pathogen attack during the rocket construction period.

This probability should be quite high.

In fact, the Pathogen didn't need to understand his ultimate goal; they only needed to destroy the rocket launch base he had invested his energy into over the past few days to contain him.

And the Swarm he currently had... might not be unable to deal with the Pathogen.

One should know that when he was running for Savior some time ago.

His Swarm Larva had swallowed millions of Zombies in a City!

Calculating based on fifty energy points per corpse, he now possessed a Swarm of over fifty million with attack capabilities!

Such a number could be comparable to a small natural disaster.

If he really manipulated this number of Swarm, it would likely attract the high attention of the Zombie Civilization.

If he wanted to deploy these Swarm, he would have to make some preparations.

A calm atmosphere was maintained throughout the following days.

It was as if the Pathogen had completely disappeared from the entire World.

The Zombies in City after City began a large-scale cleanup under the counterattack of Humans!

Aircraft bombing, tank shelling.

The Zombies in the City were decreasing every day.

In just two months.

Humans had slowly stood up from the major blow of the three months before the apocalypse began.

In the major Base Cities, high-rise buildings took shape one after another.

Resources such as medical care and education began to recover...

Zombie invasions of Humans also rarely occurred after the Army's cleanup.

Everything seemed to be developing in a better direction.

Or perhaps... it was the calm before the storm.

Eagle City.

Nie Fangping looked at the rocket standing on the ground in front of him, sighing slightly in his heart.

Wasn't this thing the most distinct representative product of a Civilization?

"It will start in two days."

Nie Fangping muttered to himself, then looked at the hazy overcast sky.

He always had a feeling.

Above the dark clouds, it seemed as if a Pathogen was quietly waiting.

Just like when he took a plane and encountered a Pathogen.

Whether the Pathogen came or not, he needed to add the final layer of insurance to his plan.

As Nie Fangping's thoughts moved slightly, a 'worker' in the base had a glint in his eyes.

This was another human body shell.

Under Nie Fangping's subtle arrangement, it became an ordinary worker in this rocket project.

According to Linda's notification, two Saviors would come to 'visit' today and also ask him some questions.

Those two, without much thought, were clearly the spies of the Zombie Civilization.

The final layer of insurance was for this human body shell to lock up in front of the two women.

Afternoon.

Linda respectfully received the two women.

These two women were Park Eun-na and Tenazaki Miwa.

Among Saviors, one could originally refuse visits from other Saviors.

It was just that Nie Fangping had not responded.

Without being denied, the two women forcefully came here.

While making Linda puzzled, she also couldn't say anything else.

After all, Nie Fangping had not given her the order to turn people away.

In addition, the other party was also a Savior, so she could only treat them respectfully.

"This rocket, is this what Fang Ping has been doing all this time?" Among the two, the short-haired woman Tenazaki Miwa looked at the rocket in the distance.

Linda smiled apologetically: "Sorry, regarding Mr. Fang Ping's plan, I cannot reveal it."

However, it was very clear.

The two women already knew a lot of information.

Park Eun-na sneered impolitely: "Building a rocket, going to contact other Civilizations to save Humans? Can this guy be any more ridiculous?"

After speaking, she looked at Linda: "Take us to take a look."

"Sorry..." Linda said apologetically: "Except for the staff of this project and Mr. Fang Ping, no one else can enter the base."

Hearing this answer, a hint of coldness and killing intent flashed in the eyes of the two women.

"Where is Fang Ping? Both of us Saviors have come, why don't we see him?" Tenazaki Miwa asked.

Linda revealed what she could as much as possible, answering: "Mr. Fang Ping has some things to attend to and has temporarily left..."

"Left?" Hearing this, the two women frowned and looked at the base in the distance.

Their purpose for coming this time was to collect some basic information and prepare for the Pathogen to come out and destroy this base tomorrow.

Now that Fang Ping was gone and they couldn't enter the base, they couldn't obtain the information they wanted at all.

That guy was deliberately avoiding them.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter." Tenazaki Miwa shrugged and smiled, slowly getting up: "Let's go, whether we see it or not, it won't make any difference."

After the short-haired woman's voice fell, Park Eun-na also understood her meaning.

To destroy this base, the Pathogen coming out would be completely enough.

Collecting information was originally a non-essential part.

In fact, this project, in the eyes of the Zombie Civilization, had no effect at all.

The reason why they still had the intention to destroy it was because even a lion uses its full strength when fighting a rabbit.

In wars between Civilizations, there can be no slightest contempt.

Understanding that after the Pathogen came out, this base would be completely destroyed just like the rocket, Park Eun-na slowly got up.

And when the two women were about to leave.

Suddenly, they saw a worker in the base in the distance escaping in a panic.

Behind him was a group of Security personnel with faces full of anger.

"What is this?" The two women's eyes were attracted by this scene.

"Catch him! He actually dared to plant a time bomb in the rocket, he is destroying the Savior's plan!"

In the crowd behind, the angry voice poured into the ears of the two women.

Hearing this, the two women were slightly stunned, and at the same time, they saw that the man had already run past them.

"Whoosh~" Tenazaki Miwa suddenly darted forward, appearing beside the man, and grabbed him.

Behind, Park Eun-na reached out a hand to the pursuing crowd and stopped them all.
