325: Chapter 325 Haicheng Base
"Doomsday World?"
Xiao Ju murmured suspiciously, exchanging a glance with Cui Yunxuan.
Qiao Yingzi glanced at Qin Ge, and seeing his nod of approval, she simply told them everything about the Doomsday World in detail.
Hiss—
Upon learning about the existence of the Doomsday World from Qiao Yingzi, Xiao Ju gasped, murmuring in fear and awe, "So that means I, Xiao Ju, could also become an Ability User and rival the experts of those Hidden Sects?!"
"If even the Gold-medal Fighters on our Thunder Dragon Society's 'Didi Hitman' APP become Ability Users, wouldn't our business be able to include the conflicts between Hidden Sects in the future?"
"Those Hidden Sects might not have entered the secular world, but every one of them has precious antiques passed down through generations. Any single one could be worth millions!"
Listening to Xiao Ju's muttering, even Qin Ge couldn't help but chuckle.
If you called Xiao Ju loyal, she spent all day scheming, even plotting against Cui Yunxuan.
But if you called her disloyal, whenever something good happened, her first thought was always for Cui Yunxuan and the Thunder Dragon Society!
Cui Yunxuan frowned. "In that case, if Qiao Beibei was summoned to that Doomsday World, surrounded by zombies and with no food to eat, isn't she in extreme danger?"
Qin Ge shook his head. "That shouldn't be the case."
"Since Qiao Beibei is Xu Shiyin's cousin, I won't let anything happen to her, no matter what."
After chatting for a while, Qin Ge went to handle some trivial matters at hand.
After all, involving the movement of a large number of soldiers required even him to make a phone call to request authorization.
Once everything was settled,
Qin Ge once again opened the passage formed by the light of doom within Yunding Manor.
When they transmigrated from Yunding Manor to the villa in the Doomsday World, even Xiao Ju, who had mentally prepared herself, was deeply shocked by the sight of the devastated streets through the window and the massive pile of corpses below the villa area.
Shangguan Yuer used an electronic calendar with batteries to calculate the difference in time flow. "We stayed in Yunding Manor for half a day, but three whole days have passed in this Doomsday World. Based on that ratio, one day in the Dragon Kingdom is roughly ten days in this Doomsday World!?"
Qin Ge nodded. "Roughly. Let's go out and see!"
As Qin Ge's group of seven stepped out of the villa, Liu Piaoxu came stumbling toward them from not far away in a panic.
"Mr. Qin, you're back! You're finally back!"
Liu Piaoxu swallowed hard with difficulty, her voice trembling with fear.
Qin Ge looked at the parched Liu Piaoxu with her cracked lips and frowned slightly. "Didn't I distribute food to you? Have you not had anything to eat or drink for these three days?"
Liu Piaoxu nodded, then shook her head. "None of that matters. Mr. Qin, you need to run!"
"That guy Luo Chen is a beast. The day after that night, he contacted the people from Haicheng Base and told them we had a large amount of food here."
"Haicheng Base sent several powerful Ability Users that night and snatched away all the food we had!"
"Now, those people are still near the villa area searching for your trail, Mr. Qin, wanting to steal the food resources you have on you!"
"Run away with these women before they find you!"
Su Yaoyao frowned and murmured suspiciously, "Haicheng Base?"
She turned to look at Qin Huanhuan, who also nodded with a frown.
Just then, several figures of Ability Users shot toward them from the distance.
They stood suspended in the air, looking down at the survivors led by Qin Ge, each of them speaking mockingly, "That guy Luo Chen was right. You, Qin Ge, really are wasteful and extravagant!"
"Can you alone handle so many top-tier beauties as beautiful as flowers?"
The leader was a fifth-rank Wind-Type Esper, his eyes greedily and unscrupulously scanning Shangguan Yuer and the other women below.
Not to mention these five stunningly beautiful Daughters of Destiny,
even the looks of Xiao Ju and Liu Piaoxu could be considered top-tier in today's Doomsday World.
Ruan Xingrou took a step forward, sticking her neck out and shouting loudly, "Where are my Second Senior Sister Luo Li and the others?"
"Since you're from Haicheng Base, you shouldn't be ignorant of their whereabouts, right?"
The leading Wind-Type Esper narrowed his eyes, fire igniting in them as he said furiously, "You're with that Dantai Qingyue!?"
"Heh! No wonder you have such abundant resources!"
"Dantai Qingyue is the first person who could kill two sixth-rank Ability Users in my Haicheng Base and escape unscathed!"
"Originally, we only planned to have you hand over the food. Now, since you're connected to Dantai Qingyue,"
"we'll have to keep you at Haicheng Base to use as bait to catch the big fish that is Dantai Qingyue!"
Ruan Xingrou clenched her small fists. Her blood flow accelerated, and her heartbeat grew increasingly rapid, like a beating drum.
The other three women, including Shangguan Yuer, also wore cold expressions, prepared for a life-and-death struggle.
Xiao Ju pulled two watermelon knives from her waist.
Unlike Ruan Xingrou and the others, Xiao Ju was a 'muggle' with no cultivation.
Even after coming to the Doomsday World, she wasn't suppressed in any way.
She gritted her teeth and cursed, "So what if you can fly! Let's fight them!"
Qin Ge raised his hand. "Keeping them is just asking for trouble. Kill them."
As soon as he spoke, before Ruan Xingrou and the others could act,
several streaks of light shot out from within the villa area.
It was none other than Luo Li and the other two who had split up from Su Yaoyao's group to search for news of Qin Ge.
The moment the three women appeared, they used thunderous methods to kill all five airborne Wind-Type Espers in a single encounter!
Just as Long Lingyin was about to chase down the last Ability User, Qin Ge slightly raised his hand, stopping her.
Long Lingyin rushed to Qin Ge's side in indignation, gritting her teeth in dissatisfaction. "Qin Ge, are you crazy? You're letting the tiger back to the mountain?"
"Do you know that there are eighth-rank Ability Users in Haicheng Base? If you let that guy go back to report, it won't be long before the strongest of Haicheng Base brings a large force back to slaughter us!"
Shangguan Yuer said softly, "Is it possible that Qin Ge intentionally let a messenger go? Does he plan to use this to wipe out Haicheng Base in one go?"
"Are you crazy?" Long Lingyin said resentfully, clenching her small fists. "If we were in the Dragon Kingdom, I could understand Qin Ge doing this. After all, his cultivation wouldn't be suppressed, and he would have the power to destroy Haicheng Base."
"But now, this is the Doomsday World. Our cultivation is completely suppressed. Even Revered Master can't show her cultivation and can only rely on acquired abilities and martial arts to kill!"
"Anyone below a third-rank Ability User is called a low-rank Ability User. They can't be compared to fourth to sixth-rank Ability Users."
"As for high-rank Ability Users, they are even more terrifying. The strongest person in Haicheng has reached the eighth rank. According to our estimates, they can at least rival the experts of the Hidden Sects!"
Ruan Xingrou rolled her eyes and said with pride, "It's not like Qin Ge hasn't killed experts from Hidden Sects before."
"In this Doomsday World, our cultivation is suppressed, but that doesn't mean Qin Ge's is!"
"As long as that eighth-rank Ability User dares to come, he'll definitely never return!"
Qin Ge didn't look at the stunned Long Lingyin. Instead, he stared at the delicate, trembling face of Jiang Ling and asked suspiciously, "Didn't I tell you to use a disguise when going to crowded places? How did you get into a conflict with the people from Haicheng Base again?"
In this Doomsday World, order had collapsed.
Beauty was a sin.
If the strong saw it, they would inevitably kidnap them.
He had warned Jiang Ling and the others, but it seemed they had still caused trouble.
Jiang Ling said aggrievedly, "The three of us used disguises. It was Revered Master who didn't. She didn't want to bind her chest, so she entered Haicheng Base with her original appearance."
"The moment she entered Haicheng Base, Revered Master was targeted by a manager who was a sixth-rank Ability User and wanted to take advantage of her."
"We hadn't even passed the quarantine zone before we started fighting with the people from Haicheng Base."
"Revered Master made such a scene that even the eighth-rank Ability User of Haicheng showed up."
Shangguan Yuer said with lingering fear, "Then where is Revered Master? You're all here, but I don't see her. She couldn't have been kidnapped by that eighth-rank Ability User to be his wife, right? No, that fifth-rank Space-type Ability User just said they wanted to lure out the big fish Revered Master, which means she hasn't been caught yet. How did she escape from that eighth-rank Ability User?"
Luo Li said in a deep voice, "Revered Master is now a sixth-rank Ability User."
Liu Piaoxu said in shock, "A sixth-rank fighting an eighth-rank and still escaping unscathed?"
Jiang Ling and the other six women turned their heads in unison. "Isn't that normal?"
Even the always cautious and timid Shangguan Yuer felt it was perfectly reasonable.
After all, that was their Revered Master, the Sect Master of Bright Moon Sect, Dantai Qingyue.
Wasn't it normal to cross two Ability User ranks and fight an eighth-rank?
Revered Master was already a sixth-rank Ability User; it would be abnormal if she *hadn't* managed to kill the strongest person in Haicheng Base!
This indirectly proved that the eighth-rank Ability User was by no means an ordinary expert!
...
On the other side, inside Haicheng Base,
it was crowded with people huddled in old shipping containers, sleeping on the floor wherever they could. The smell of sweat and filth was overwhelming.
Amidst the snoring and the sound of growling stomachs, some low-rank Ability Users could no longer suppress themselves and left Haicheng Base again under the cover of night to hunt zombies.
Only corpse cores could be exchanged for food resources, and only by obtaining third-rank corpse cores or higher could one escape this wretched life that was neither human nor beast.
In contrast, at the highest point of Haicheng Base, inside Chen Hai's palace,
it was magnificent, with bright lights powered by generators burning day and night.
On a soft large bed, Chen Hai had his arms spread out, holding a woman on each side.
Glancing sideways at Luo Chen standing before the bed, Chen Hai said with greed in his eyes, "You're saying that in your original shelter, there are four top-tier beauties who are a thousand times more beautiful than the women I have here?"
Luo Chen lowered his head and said seriously, "That's right. Beside that Qin Ge, Shangguan Yuer and Ruan Xingrou, as well as Su Yaoyao and Qin Huanhuan whom I just met, are all top-tier beauties, each with her own charm!"
Chen Hai chuckled. "Good, good, good! Luo Chen, for reporting this news, you've earned a merit!"
Luo Chen lowered his head. "Thank you for the reward, General!"
He sneered in his heart.
After his legs were broken previously, he had to seek help from the healing Ability Users at Haicheng Base.
After all, even if he returned to the Dragon Kingdom, the injuries to his legs wouldn't heal for three months.
Furthermore, he was currently a wanted man and didn't dare show his face in the Dragon Kingdom.
But entering Haicheng Base was different. Just by paying corpse cores, the injuries to his legs healed in less than two days under the treatment of a healing Ability User.
And during this time, he even managed to get an audience with Chen Hai by paying corpse cores.
He naturally told Chen Hai that Qin Ge possessed a large amount of food.
One must know that whether in his original shelter or the current Haicheng Base, food was scarce and the most precious resource.
As he expected, Chen Hai immediately sent people to his former shelter to plunder the food.
The only pity was that Qin Ge had disappeared.
Otherwise, with Qin Ge's personality, he would definitely have a conflict with Haicheng Base,
and thus become an enemy of Chen Hai!
The Chen Hai before him might be lustful, but he was a top-tier expert unlike any he had ever seen.
He was an eighth-rank high-rank Ability User, a being capable of destroying a city!
If Qin Ge faced him, he would surely die!
Just then, a maid came forward outside Chen Hai's palace and said respectfully, "General, Xu Bing is back!"
Chen Hai casually raised his hand. "Let him in!"
Soon, the Ability User Qin Ge had released crawled and knelt before Chen Hai on the bed, saying in terror, "General, they're dead, all dead! All our people were killed, and I'm the only one who luckily escaped back!"
"The Ability Users around Qin Ge are too powerful. They're only fifth-rank, yet they could easily kill our fellow fifth-rank Wind-Type Espers!"
"Furthermore, the women around that guy are Dantai Qingyue's disciples."
"I suspect that terrifying woman Dantai Qingyue is watching me from behind!"
"I was able to come back alive thanks to that guy named Qin Ge intentionally letting me go."
"This is a conspiracy to lure you, General, into going there recklessly so they can wipe out our Haicheng Base in one go!"
Chen Hai cracked his neck. "Want to wipe out my Haicheng Base in one go?!"
He wore a look of mockery, glancing dismissively at the kneeling Ability User. "Are those four women around Qin Ge as beautiful as flowers? How do they compare to these two sluts?"
Chen Bing looked up at the four women beside Chen Hai and said with some difficulty, "The seven women around Qin Ge are all stunningly beautiful, as if they stepped out of a painting. These two beside you, General, really can't be compared to them."
"Seven!?"
Chen Hai's eyes lit up. "If we add Dantai Qingyue, wouldn't that be eight top-tier beauties?"
The lustful fire burned in his gut, and he said impatiently, "Notify all Ability Users to assemble immediately. In three hours, we set out for Haicheng to kill Qin Ge!"
