Great Evolution: I Exclusively Possess Earth's Six Supreme Opportunities
Chapter 46 The Development of the Base
When Su Bai's figure reappeared on the outskirts of the Gobi base, the sky was just beginning to lighten.
His absence wasn't long, but the changes to the entire base were nothing short of earth-shattering.
The once somewhat rudimentary underground entrance has now been expanded into a massive gate made of heavy alloy, flanked by heavy machine guns "borrowed" from the military warehouse, their dark muzzles gleaming with a chilling light.
Outside the base, several towering watchtowers rise from the ground, with armed sentries standing on them, vigilantly monitoring every rustle of smoke and fire.
Su Bai could tell at a glance that these sentries were not ordinary people.
Each of them possesses varying degrees of energy fluctuations, clearly indicating that they are survivors who have awakened supernatural abilities.
What pleased Su Bai even more was that several simple yet efficient warning arrays, personally designed by him, were set up around the entire base.
An alarm will be triggered immediately if any hostile creature approaches.
The moment Su Bai's figure appeared within the magic array's range.
"Waaah—! Waaah—!"
The piercing alarm sounded throughout the entire base!
"Enemy attack! All units on high alert!"
On the watchtower, a sentry holding binoculars let out a hoarse roar.
The heavy machine guns on both sides of the alloy gate instantly turned their muzzles and locked onto Su Bai.
A patrol team of more than a dozen awakened individuals filed out of the base and quickly formed a battle formation. Every face on theirs was filled with a resolute determination to fight to the death.
The base's response speed and organization far exceeded Su Bai's expectations.
However, just as the patrol captain was about to give the order to fire.
A clear, cold, and urgent female voice echoed throughout the entire defensive position via walkie-talkie.
"Stop! All of you, stop!"
"Look closely! That's the boss! The boss is back!"
The voice belonged to Lin Wan.
"The boss?"
The patrol captain was taken aback. He quickly picked up his binoculars and looked at the lone figure standing in the wilderness.
When he saw that calm, expressionless face, his hand trembled so violently that he almost dropped the binoculars.
"It's...it's the boss!"
"It really is the boss!"
"Quick! Open the door! Welcome the boss!"
The battlefield, which was just moments ago tense and filled with a murderous atmosphere, instantly turned into chaos and disarray.
The heavy alloy gate creaked and groaned as it slowly rose.
Lin Wan, along with a group of core members of the base led by "Ghost," quickly came out from inside to greet them.
When she saw that familiar figure, for the first time, her beautiful eyes, which had always maintained an icy calm, revealed a hint of barely suppressed excitement and...reassurance.
"Boss, you're back."
Lin Wan walked up to Su Bai and bowed her head respectfully.
"Um."
Su Bai nodded, his gaze sweeping over her, then over the core members behind her who also wore expressions of admiration and awe.
He could sense that during the time he was away, these people had all made considerable progress in their abilities.
Lin Wan and the Ghost, in particular, seem to have already touched the threshold of the "Shackled Realm".
"Well done."
Su Bai praised him generously.
That short sentence brought an undisguised joy to Lin Wan, You Ling, and the others.
For them, gaining Su Bai's approval was more exciting than any reward.
Surrounded by the crowd, Su Bai entered the base.
The changes inside the base are greater than those outside.
The passageways have been redesigned and made spacious and bright.
The originally chaotic survivor residential area was divided into different functional areas, including living areas, production areas, and even a small trading market.
Those survivors who were taken in were no longer idly waiting for rescue.
Under Lin Wan's organization, they each performed their duties.
Those with agricultural knowledge are setting up underground farms to try growing mutated crops.
Those with industrial skills are repairing and modifying various equipment collected from outside.
The entire base is like a highly efficient and precise machine, full of vitality.
This stands in stark contrast to the chaotic, bloody, and precarious apocalyptic scene outside.
This place has become a truly orderly post-apocalyptic paradise.
"The base currently has a total of 1,321 survivors."
"Among them, there are a total of 87 awakened superhumans, all of whom have been incorporated into the 'Judgment' patrol team under Captain Ghost, responsible for the base's daily patrols and missions to collect supplies outside the base."
As Lin Wan walked, she reported her work to Su Bai.
Her voice was clear and cool, and she managed everything at the base perfectly.
Su Bai listened and nodded in satisfaction.
He knew that one person's strength was ultimately limited.
To survive better in this apocalypse, to realize one's grand ambition of protecting human civilization, and to establish one's own power, is the only way forward.
Lin Wan was undoubtedly the most suitable "housekeeper" he had chosen.
"very good."
Su Bai spoke again, "Thank you for your hard work these past few days."
He took out a jade bottle from his storage equipment and handed it to Lin Wan.
"Here, take this."
"There are some pills inside. Select some core members who are highly loyal and have potential, and distribute them."
"It's beneficial for their strength."
This bottle of pills was the "Life-Giving Elixir" he had refined using that A-grade snake king.
Lin Wan respectfully accepted the jade bottle. When she uncorked it and smelled the life force so rich it was almost tangible, her usually icy face revealed disbelief and shock for the first time.
"Boss, this..."
Just this aura alone made her feel the energy within her body begin to boil uncontrollably!
"Do as I say."
Su Bai didn't offer much explanation.
That night.
A small-scale distribution ceremony was held in the core conference room of the base.
After Ghost and a dozen other selected core members took the blood-red pill.
The entire conference room was instantly filled with surging energy!
"boom!"
The ghost's body was the first to change!
His aura surged dramatically, and an invisible "shackle" binding his body shattered under the immense energy impact of the pill!
The Shackled Realm!
He succeeded!
Followed by.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Auras of breakthroughs rose and fell in succession!
Among the dozen or so people present, even the weakest among them had directly improved by a minor realm!
And people like Ghost, who were already at a bottleneck, directly achieved a leap in their level of life!
"My God! My power... I feel like I'm more than ten times stronger than before!"
"God! The boss is a god! This is simply a miracle!"
"I'd give my heart to my boss!"
Feeling the surging power within them, everyone was plunged into extreme fervor and worship!
The look in their eyes when they looked at Su Bai was no longer simply one of awe.
That's the look a believer has when they look at their one true God!
Su Bai watched all of this calmly.
He knew that from this day forward, his status in this base had begun to subtly shift from that of a mere "protector" to that of a "sole believer."
This is exactly the result he wanted.
Su Bai didn't have any free time over the next two days.
Using his knowledge of formations and the vast amount of materials he had scavenged from the outside world, he upgraded the entire base's defense system once again in a comprehensive manner.
He personally set up one more powerful attack array after another, and one more wide-range maze array after another.
Today, the Gobi base has truly become an impregnable steel fortress.
Even without him in command, it would be enough to withstand the onslaught of tens of thousands of mutated beasts.
After doing all this, he handed over all the affairs to Lin Wan once again.
He knew it was time for him to get back on the road.
The imperial tomb that holds the ambitions of a great emperor awaits him.
