After rebirth, she discovered the space golden finger

Chapter 504 Back to base

As soon as Pei Yun and his team returned to the third base in City K, they learned that the base had recently suffered three waves of attacks. The most serious one was the missile attack a few days ago. Fortunately, Chu Zewen had used Pei Yun's means early in the morning and notified the base in advance, which enabled the base to activate the defense system in time and arrange for personnel transfer, thus avoiding great losses.

Of course, there is another point. At the end of the world, a meteorite hit the planet and destroyed half of the world, causing the technological level of the entire Source Star to regress by hundreds of years, and it has not yet recovered to 10% to this day. Therefore, the means by which the headquarters now deals with the base are relatively simple.

As soon as Chu Zewen returned to the base, the acting head Yang Weimin and the senior executives of the third base couldn't wait to meet him.

They still didn't know what had happened, why the base was attacked, and why it was attacked from headquarters.

"…About two months ago, the base's network communication equipment suddenly stopped working. We thought there was a malfunction, but when we asked the people at the first and second bases, they said everything was normal inside their bases. Moreover, they looked at us with a strange look on their faces. The psychics at the second base simply stopped contacting us…"

"...Later, the leader of the First Base, Deng Zicai, told us that the headquarters had issued a directive to the First and Second Bases, requiring these two bases to capture the psychics of our Third Base and send them back to the headquarters, and to cut off the life support facilities of the Third Base..."

"Of course, the people in the First and Second Bases did not follow the headquarters' orders and are now standing still."

Yang Weimin and his companions chatted with each other, looking at Chu Zewen and Li Yi with worried expressions.

"Chief, what happened?"

Chu Zewen then recounted in detail what had happened in the headquarters in the past few days: "...Everyone, it is my personal wish to be an enemy of Yi Tianfeng. I will not force you. If anyone has any objections, you can leave the third base. I will not force you..."

The third base can be said to have been established by Chu Zewen alone. Many people in it have been saved by Chu Zewen, so everyone naturally supports Chu Zewen's decision.

The next step is to assign tasks to deal with the headquarters' next move -

“Let’s contact Deng Zicai first. Deng Zicai is a shrewd and resourceful man. As long as the people of the First Base form an alliance with us, the people of the Second Base will not dare to act rashly. After all, this is K City, and it will be difficult for the headquarters to intervene. As long as K City is stabilized, the basic survival of the base can be guaranteed…” Chu Zewen said.

Wan Xiaoqing beside him suggested: "…It is not enough to rely on K City alone. The talent pool is limited. I remember that the city next door to K City is Fang City. Before the apocalypse, it was a technologically advanced city and a very large city. Now Fang City has six bases. If we can get Fang City to join us, then the living standards of the current bases will not be affected by the headquarters."

"Yes."

The others couldn't help but nod in agreement, and Chu Zewen looked at Pei Yun, who had been silent, to seek her opinion.

Everyone present also looked towards Pei Yun. To be honest, their biggest reliance now was Pei Yun's strength.

Although Chu Zewen attributed all the conflicts with Yi Tianfeng to himself, smart people have realized that the reason why Yi Tianfeng suddenly became hostile to Chu Zewen was that he brought Pei Yun, the person he was afraid of.

But regardless of Pei Yun’s strength, they also want to give it a try just for the treasure in Pei Yun’s hands.

Pei Yun said, "I don't know how much damage your planet's technology can do without using superpowers, so I have no say in this matter. However, I will help the Third Base set up a defensive formation to protect the people in the base. I will also teach you spells to speed up your cultivation. The transaction of meteorites and treasures is still valid..."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes lit up, and the impatience and worries in their hearts were temporarily suppressed.

After a whole day of discussion, the meeting was finally over...

The group returned to the villa area where they lived. Chu Zewen arranged an empty villa for Wan Xiaoqing and her son and mother, but Wan Xiaoqing refused the arrangement.

Li Yi and Pei Yun, who were traveling with them, watched with interest. They originally thought that Wan Xiaoqing wanted to live with Chu Zewen. The villa where Chu Zewen lived was very big, and it was more than enough for Wan Xiaoqing and her son, not to mention the Chu family.

Not only these two people, but also the Chu family thought so. Chu's mother was a little disappointed with her youngest son. She looked at her youngest son with disdain. Others were willing to come to K City for him, but her silly son didn't take the initiative.

Unexpectedly, Wan Xiaoqing walked towards Pei Yun and pleaded, "Senior, can my mother and I stay with you for a while? I will definitely not disturb you..."

Everyone:...

Everyone present was stunned. Pei Yun also raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise: "You want to live with me?"

The villa she lived in was the same size as Chu Zewen's, and He Ying and three other people were already living there. She didn't mind having three more people living there, but...

"I have a feeling that I will be busy for a long time and won't be able to take care of my two children. I feel relieved that my children are with you..."

Hearing this, Pei Yun was speechless, but she did not refuse: "You can stay if you want. There are many empty rooms anyway. There are three ordinary people living in the villa where I live. They are my friends."

Wan Xiaoqing thanked Pei Yun and returned to the villa with her.

Li Yi shook his head and looked at their departing backs. He patted Chu Zewen on the shoulder and said teasingly with a smile:

"I originally thought that it was because of your infinite charm that Wan Xiaoqing was willing to give up everything in City A and follow you to our base. Now it seems that Wan Xiaoqing..."

He thought for a moment and commented, "...As expected, you are a top student like me, very smart!"

Chu Zewen glanced at him unhappily, ignored him, and took the Chu family back to his villa...

On the way back, Wan Xiaoqing also smiled and said to Pei Yun: "...Senior Pei, I came to K City with you this time. I'm afraid you all think I came here for Chu Zewen..."

Pei Yun didn't expect Wan Xiaoqing to take the initiative to talk about this topic, and her expression was calm and generous, which made her admire the person in front of her: "...I just heard from Li Yi that you and Chu Zewen had a relationship..."

"What Li Yi said is right. Zewen, he and I all went to the same high school. Zewen was my first love and the person I once loved deeply."

Pei Yun smiled: "...Once deeply in love? What about now?"

"Now... of course I still love you." Wan Xiaoqing didn't show any shyness on her face. "But I'm thirty-seven years old this year, not seventeen. I won't give up everything for love. I came to K City because of my seniors."

After saying this, seeing Pei Yun looking at him in surprise, Wan Xiaoqing did not hide his purpose:

"Because the thing in the senior's hand can really change the source star. Although I am not strong now, but I can practice the skills and prolong my life. Who can resist such a temptation? I don't know why Yi Tianfeng doesn't cooperate with the senior, but any normal person will understand the value of the senior's treasure..."

"It can be said that Yi Tianfeng's methods were too swift this time. As soon as Zewen came to City A, he designed to seriously injure Zewen. Later, when Senior rushed to the hospital, he led the psychics from the headquarters to besiege him. Even though he knew that Senior was stronger than everyone else, he still chose to confront him and did not give him any time to react. If he had slowed down a little, he would not have been able to control the people below to deal with Senior so smoothly..."

Pei Yun listened to the person in front of her talking, and the confidence and ambition revealed in his expression. She suddenly realized that Wan Xiaoqing was showing off her abilities to her.

She also gave Wan Xiaoqing a chance to perform: "Oh? How do you mean?"

"Because if he is a little slower, more and more superpowers will trade with you. Once they practice the skills and enhance their strength, they will certainly understand the value of these skills. At that time, for the sake of their own strength and to prolong their lifespan, will they still obey Yi Tianfeng?"

Wan Xiaoqing analyzed, "So he had to be quick. He had to cut off this path and become your enemy before people discovered the value of the things you gave him. At the same time, he had to kill those two people and blame their deaths on your technique, so that those people would not dare to practice the technique you gave them easily..."

Pei Yun praised: "Your analysis makes a lot of sense." She looked at the person in front of her with a new respect.
