The tank smoothly left the E City base and returned to its own little castle.

The mistresses came out happily to greet them.

[How's it going? Is the official base alright? Did they give you any trouble?] [You seem very happy; it must have gone smoothly, right?]

The two of them circled around the five people, looking forward to their feedback.

Wu Zhe was delighted. "Of course! It's very convenient! And the items you can redeem are great! They're fresh and there's a wide variety. It's just that we don't have enough points."

Many things cannot be replaced.

While moving things, Gao Lei praised, "I see their equipment is very new, and the base facilities are excellent."

No wonder everyone is willing to stay.

Lorna helped unload the goods. "We bought a lot of food this time, enough to last us a long time."

Since the greenhouse upstairs has started producing vegetables, this time we bought staple foods and fresh meat, enough to feed the seven of them for about 110 days.

However, the more food the better, so I'll continue to buy it in the future.

Huo Ling was reviewing the official missions. He felt that the points were indeed quite valuable. If completing missions could earn points, then it was definitely worth taking them on. They could earn points, and the base could complete missions, each getting what they needed. It was something worth seriously considering.

"The meeting will be held later."

As Huo Ling said this, they decided to discuss whether or not to take on that large-scale rescue mission.

Risk and opportunity are relative.

Seeing so much food being stored away, Lin Shuangshuang felt much more at ease, knowing that this food would be enough for them to withstand the risks for a while.

"Go ahead and answer it, I can."

As soon as she heard Huo Ling say that he wanted to take on a mission, she quickly nodded in agreement.

Huo Ling glanced at her. "If you can't do it alone, what about the others' opinions?"

Lorna raised her hand and said, "I'm fine! I can do it too, just like Shuang'er!"

Gao Lei and Wu Zhe exchanged a glance and looked at the items in the E City base mall. They both felt it was worth the risk, since the more supplies the better, and the official supplies were the most abundant, so exchanging them with points was reasonable.

"I have no objection!"

"I agree!"

Huo Ling nodded, "Okay, I'll bring up the map, and we'll plan our route and tactics."

He casually called Zhao Pingsheng down, but Zhang Dapeng was in seclusion, so he didn't bother him for the time being.

Zhao Pingsheng's hair was a mess, and he looked like he was severely sleep-deprived. He was surprised that they came back so quickly, and asked, "You guys just went for a walk and came back? You're all changed already??"

He thought the official procedures were complicated and would take several days.

Wu Zhe had talked to him at length, basically saying that the official base was well-planned, had plenty of supplies, and had a simple process, which was why it was so fast.

Zhao Pingsheng nodded. "That's good."

Huo Ling told him about the mission, "Is that big mission from last time still available?"

Zhao Pingsheng said, "You want to take this? Sure, I think it's pretty reliable. With more people, you'll be safer, and there will be officials around. But you still have to be wary of guys who might try to stab you in the back."

He told them to be more careful, as there are far too many strange and unusual superpowers these days.

I learned my lesson the hard way last time.

They must be extremely careful this time to avoid falling victim to the virus.

Lin Shuangshuang asked, "The alien cores we captured still belong to us, right?"

Zhao Pingsheng adjusted his glasses. "Good question. Yes, if an individual takes the spoils, they belong to that individual. But if it's a collective action, the spoils need to be shared equally among everyone."

After all, in team fights, it's impossible to determine who attacked whom; the score is usually split.

Lorna said, "This is reasonable, no problem, acceptable."

Wu Zhe also said excitedly, "As long as it's not too shady and it destroys all the alien cores we've destroyed, that's fine! Anyway, we need to collect alien cores, so we can earn points and collect alien cores at the same time! It's safer to act with the officials."

Gao Lei nodded.

Seeing everyone's high spirits, Huo Ling said, "Then let's accept it."

Zhao Pingsheng clicked "Confirm," and their accounts immediately received a notification: "[Ding~ You have a new task accepted!]"

Ok? ? ?

This familiar feeling.

Wu Zhe exclaimed in disbelief, "Isn't that the old-fashioned sound of food delivery orders?"

Lorna laughed out loud, "So retro? That's interesting."

The official response was quite cheeky.

Gao Lei said, "It's possible that the software was designed by an elderly person."

Luo Na and Wu Zhe nodded in agreement.

Huo Ling scrolled down to view the task assignment page and happened to catch a glimpse of a familiar photo. "The town lord's wanted poster has been released."

A reward of one million points is offered.

Lin Shuangshuang leaned over to take a look. Although she didn't have these memories, the memo had it written down. She looked down at the memo again and said, "Ten tons of zero-pollution materials!" That was all she remembered.

Huo Ling chuckled. "You remember that quite clearly."

Because of his tall stature.

At 189cm tall, he could easily see all of Lin Shuangshuang's notes when he looked down.

Huo Ling noticed that the first few posts she pinned to the top seemed normal, but the later posts with kissing, touching, and hugging records seemed less proper.

Lin Shuangshuang keenly noticed, then looked up at him, and upon discovering him, abruptly turned off the screen, exclaiming in panic, "You were peeking at my notes!"

She had clearly set it to one-way viewing, but he still peeked!!

The little monster's face turned bright red.

Huo Ling remained completely unfazed even after being caught red-handed, utterly wicked. "You dare to write it, but you don't dare to let me see it? Besides, I didn't mean to see it."

He patted her head as he spoke.

The meaning is obvious.

Lin Shuangshuang's eyes widened as she dodged his hand. "Are you mocking me for being short?"

Huo Ling pressed down on her lips and said, "No."

Lin Shuangshuang said seriously, "You do."

Huo Ling pursed her lips. "No."

Lin Shuangshuang asked suspiciously, "Yes?"

The two of them were arguing back and forth like childish fools.

Lorna wore a doting smile and didn't disturb them, just watching them interact. The scene was too harmonious; this was how sweet young couples should be.

Wu Zhe and Gao Lei were shocked, never expecting that the composed Huo Ling would have such a childish side.

Is this really their captain?

Zhao Pingsheng looked at him with disbelief and ignored him. He quickly tapped on the screen to check the information. "His secretary, Yu, has been arrested. According to his confession, the dangerous corpse worm is still on the town lord. If this worm is fully developed, it can summon a million-strong zombie army. At the same time, these zombies will also be its nourishment."

Extremely terrifying.

This person cannot be allowed to continue developing, otherwise he will endanger all mankind.

Huo Ling read the message and said, "It just so happens that he fled in the direction of L City. Search carefully along the way; we might be able to intercept him."

If they can catch them, they'll earn a million points for free. Facing the town lord isn't scary; he's at most a fourth-tier ability user, and the corpse worms are just late-stage fourth-star mutated creatures. Even if they join forces, they have a great chance of winning.

Previously, the main concern was that the entire town's superhumans would attack him, but he and a single worm were no problem; he could defeat them.
