Rebirth Stockpiling: The Little Girl Sweeps Through the Apocalypse

On the right side, there were several grassy areas where survivors were living.0

At a glance, it was dirty and chaotic.0

The living conditions were extremely limited.0

It could barely be called living, more like barely clinging to life.0

"Although it's messy here and life is hard, at least we don't have to face those terrifying zombies.0

And the City Guard patrols regularly, so there aren't any major conflicts," Little Lin explained.0

The car continued forward, and buildings started to appear ahead.0

"These were all built by those Earth Element and Metal Element Superhumans back there. They're for people with some abilities and their families to live in.0

The order and conditions are a bit better here, at least you're not exposed to the elements.0

There are also small markets where you can exchange supplies."0

"Those big stadiums up ahead are where the military and government officials and their families live.0

Oh, and that round stadium that looks like a bird's nest is specially for visiting Superhumans and their families."0

"What about the base leader's home?" Ling Jing asked casually.0

"The base leader's home? It's in that villa on the lake island," Little Lin pointed to a three-story house lit up on an island in a large lake not far away.0

Yun Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes. The base leader was living quite well, with a lakeside villa. He certainly knew how to enjoy life.0

She could clearly sense that when Ling Jing heard this was the base leader's home, his eyes darkened slightly.0

"Is this base controlled solely by the base leader's family?" Yun Xiaoxiao asked with a smile.0

Little Lin, afraid someone might overhear, covered his mouth and whispered, "Not at all. On the surface, the base leader calls the shots, but the military has been restless lately.0

I think internal strife is bound to break out before long.0

Now, us ordinary civilians are all living in fear, worried that the conflict will spread to us.0

Life is already so hard, why are they causing trouble? Can't they just work on making everyone's lives better instead of fighting for power all day? Don't they get tired of it?"0

After his rant, Little Lin realized he had said too much. He hurriedly waved his hands and said nervously, "Uh... I was just talking nonsense. Pretend you didn't hear any of that."0

"Oh, right. If you want to settle down in the base, you can go to that five-story office building over there. First, you'll need to register your abilities and assets, and then someone will arrange accommodations for you."0

"And over there is the big marketplace. I hear you can buy anything there, but not everyone is allowed in. Only people with status, position, and ability can enter.0

Common folks like us can only go to the smaller market I mentioned earlier. We'd be chased away if we tried to come here."0

Hearing Little Lin's words, Yun Xiaoxiao got a general understanding of the layout of Rongsheng Base.0

As well as the strict class system here.0

Those living in tents might barely survive for now.0

But once the weather starts to become extreme, they'll likely be the first to die.0

"By the way, it's already dark. Let me take you to register and find a place to stay," Little Lin said enthusiastically, but was directly refused by Ling Jing.0

"No need, we'll go by ourselves later."0

He stopped the car and handed over the agreed-upon supplies to Little Lin.0

"Thank you, thank you." Seeing that there were two extra loaves of bread than promised, Little Lin was extremely grateful.0

"Well... I'll be going then. If you need anything, you can find me at the city gate."0

Little Lin waved goodbye to the two and headed back the way they came.0

As soon as Little Lin left, Ling Jing leaned against the car door, gazing languidly at the lake island.0

Just then, a car drove past them and stopped at the office building not far away.0

A person got out of the car - wasn't it the Guard Captain who had tested Yun Xiaoxiao at the main gate earlier?0

Yun Xiaoxiao's gaze deepened as she stared intently at his back.0

This person seemed to have targeted her deliberately earlier. Why?0

She had never been to Rongsheng Base before.0

The only connection she had with Rongsheng Base was killing the base leader's son, Zhao Rongyan.0

But the people at Rongsheng Base shouldn't know about that.0

Everyone involved had died at the time.0

This was rather strange.0

"What's wrong? Still thinking about what happened earlier?" Ling Jing noticed Yun Xiaoxiao's gaze and pursed his lips slightly.0

"Do you want big brother to kill that man for you to vent your anger?"0

"What's the use of killing him? He's just following orders."0

She remembered that someone had whispered something in his ear before he turned his gaze to her.0

She didn't like people 'keeping tabs' on her behind her back.0

This matter had to be cleared up.0

As the Guard Captain walked out of the office building and was about to get in his car, a gun was pressed against the back of his head.0

His pupils constricted in shock. "Who's there?!"0

"Uncle, you sure have a short memory. Didn't we just meet?" A soft, childish voice slowly sounded by his ear.0

The man's expression froze as if suddenly remembering something.0

He tried to turn his head but was firmly held in place by the gun.0

"I advise uncle not to move. I'm afraid I might accidentally pull the trigger~"0

Yun Xiaoxiao said with a light laugh, her voice like that of a little demon.0

"What do you want?" the man asked in a deep voice.0

He had already guessed who was behind him.0

Now he deeply regretted being fooled by this little girl at the gate earlier!0

Her previous act of being pitiful and ignorant had been completely fake!0

"I don't want much. I just want to ask, why did you suddenly attack me at the gate earlier?"0

After speaking, Yun Xiaoxiao added another sentence.0

"I advise uncle to tell the truth. I have a bit of a temper, and if uncle lies and makes me unhappy, I can't guarantee your limbs will still be attached later.0

Tell me, if your arms and legs were all broken, would this base still keep you? Would they still value you?0

So, it's better for uncle to be honest.0

I promise, as long as you tell the truth, I won't kill you. How about that?"0

Yun Xiaoxiao's words made the man fall silent for a while.0

Finally, he let out a small sigh.0

To think that he, a grown man with dozens of subordinates, was now being threatened by a five-year-old child.0

If word got out, he'd lose all face.0

But he had no choice; he really was being threatened.0

The child was right. If he really lost his limbs, the base would throw him out without hesitation.0

He took a deep breath and slowly spoke.0

"Earlier, I received a notice from someone sent by the base leader. They told us to look for a five-year-old girl with both Wood Element and Ice Element abilities.0

They didn't say why, just that if we found her, we should capture her and bring her to the base leader.0

If she resisted, we were to kill her on the spot.0

That's all I know."0
