Central Region Camp… F Team, two camps joining forces, undoubtedly gave the newly established Miracle Base a great deal of confidence. And under such circumstances, Ling Mo’s promise seemed much more realistic. However, as soon as dawn broke, Miracle Base received a communication from Falcon.

Ling Mo originally did not intend to get involved in this mess, but unexpectedly, the other party specifically named him.

And the first communication Ling Mo received was from Su Qianrou…

This capable woman’s voice was rather gentle, but her tone was noticeably less composed: “You really gave me a surprise…”

“Wasn’t it a scare?” Ling Mo replied.

“Well…” Su Qianrou chuckled softly and suddenly sighed, “You’re always so hard to figure out…”

“It’s because I disrupted your plans, right?” Ling Mo said.

Su Qianrou probably didn’t expect Ling Mo to be so direct, and for a moment, she was stunned. By the time she recovered, Ling Mo had already continued, “From our first conversation, I already sensed it. You seemed you wanted to cooperate with me on the surface, but in reality, you just wanted to use me a bit once I showed enough strength.”

“No need to make ‘use’ sound so harsh…” Su Qianrou whispered.

“Sorry, the truth is often blunt. What you were doing was essentially watching without risk; if I failed early on, it wouldn’t disrupt your plans much. But if I could cause some trouble for Chief of Staff Wang, then I would be a somewhat useful tool for you. Unfortunately, whether it’s you or Chief of Staff Wang, I have no intention of being led by either of you. Now that I’ve taken the Second Camp… or should I say, Miracle Base, you’ve lost an external base of operations for your gambit. Not good news for you, I suppose…” Ling Mo said unceremoniously.

Su Qianrou was silent for a while before she spoke again, “Hearing ‘sorry’ from your mouth is quite aggressive… Maybe you’re not wrong, but my true intentions are actually more benevolent… Besides, haven’t I helped the Second Camp quite a bit? Although it was to foster my own forces, indirectly, I did give the Second Camp a chance to catch its breath… Moreover, I’m different from them. I genuinely hope to build a better camp, to unite more people to survive together. But no matter how good the intentions are, in reality, it requires some not-so-aboveboard means to achieve them… You understand that, right? To ensure survival for yourself and your loved ones, you’ve probably done quite a lot too…”

“I just want to make things clear. If you can work with me openly and honestly, I welcome it. But if you’re still thinking of using me… then I’m sorry, I’m a bit hypersensitive to schemes and manipulation right now.” Ling Mo said after pondering for a moment.

“I understand…” Su Qianrou was silent for a longer time this time before speaking, “Then let me provide you with some intelligence. Both the headquarters and branches of Niepan have sent many teams into X City, and they’ve already had several skirmishes with our reconnaissance teams, so Falcon is dealing with both internal issues and external threats… But precisely because of this, the core members are even more eager to consolidate power. Essentially, they need one voice, a voice to command all of Falcon and unite all forces into one… However, this strategy is not really beneficial for the survivors. Living without autonomy, merely as tools for survival… such a life is terrifying…”

“So soon…” Ling Mo was momentarily stunned, not expecting the sunglasses man to act so decisively… It seems he’s truly been fueled by anger… If he knew that his indiscriminate retaliatory actions ended up greatly aiding Ling Mo, who knows if it would make him furious enough to faint…

Of course, on the surface, Ling Mo remained quite calm and nodded, “Understood.”

“I’m unable to provide more specific intelligence right now, as everything is still unclear. The upheaval at the Second Camp has caused quite a stir, and now the entire Falcon is in disarray… I’d just like to say that a gift in a few days might show my sincerity… As for what you decide… perhaps you should recall the impression I initially made on you…”

With that, she sighed lightly and cut off the communication.

Ling Mo, puzzled for a moment, suddenly showed a slightly embarrassed expression, “Is she hinting at that?”

There had once been quite an intense moment between him and Su Qianrou at the Second Camp…

Thinking back to Su Qianrou’s somewhat wistful tone, Ling Mo couldn’t help but feel a shiver run down his spine.

He hadn’t expected her to use the beauty trap!

However, upon further reflection, the memory wasn’t entirely unpleasant…

A few minutes later, a second call came in.

This time, the caller was also a woman.

“Regimental Commander, you’re quite popular with the ladies,” the Miracle Base member responsible for handling communications said with a hint of jealousy, especially emphasizing the term “Regimental Commander.”

“Hey, it’s not my fault they call it F Team…” Ling Mo shot him a glance before picking up the communicator.

“Mr. Ling?” As soon as he picked up the communicator, the other party spoke keenly. However, compared to Su Qianrou, this woman’s tone was noticeably more formal, sounding almost like an electronic announcement. Ling Mo couldn’t help but think of Yu Xian, secretly criticizing how the women around Chief of Staff Wang seemed like tools… perhaps they had all been molded that way by him…

“Hello, I’m representing Wang Xiao, Chief of Staff Wang…”

“Don’t know him,” Ling Mo interrupted directly.

“You spoke last night,” the woman said patiently.

“Can’t he call himself?” Ling Mo asked before decisively hanging up the communicator, “What’s his problem?”

The woman spoke into the communicator once more, then looked up and said, “He hung up.”

“Let’s just leave it, then. I wanted to give the Second Camp another chance…” Wang Xiao, having thrown off the blanket, was meticulously buttoning his shirt in front of a dressing mirror.

The woman hesitated and asked, “So you don’t intend to eliminate them?”

Wang Xiao looked up and gazed at the reflection of the woman in the mirror. He spoke gently, “Of course not, but they might get to live a little longer and die looking a bit better. But there’s no need for that now, let’s stick to the original plan.”

“Yes,” the woman nodded.

“What about the movements on Su Qianrou’s side?” Wang Xiao suddenly asked.

Without hesitation, the woman replied, “I fear she might seek cooperation with the Second Camp.”

“Tying oneself to a grasshopper means everyone will eventually die,” Wang Xiao muttered to himself, adjusting his collar.

Although the Miracle Base had undergone a series of reforms, from the outside, things didn’t look much different from usual…

The arrival of Lucy and other members of the F Team did liven up the base somewhat, but what really caused a stir was Ling Mo’s three girlfriends.

Even Yu Shiran attracted a large crowd of humans when she entered, which scared this zombie loli into quickly dashing out of the human base to find Xiao Bai. At the entrance, a row of escapees, whom she and Xiao Bai had dealt with, left onlookers wide-eyed and speechless.

This loli’s combat power… truly remarkable!

As for Ye Lian and the others, their situation was slightly better because, after discovering that eyes were on them everywhere, the three girls hid in Ling Mo’s room.

Xu Shuhan, also a zombie, insisted on being alone. However, upon her return, Ling Mo sensed a slight change in her…

Unfortunately, he didn’t have time to delve into it before a new issue cropped up.

“Boss!”

A female voice suddenly called from behind, and then a soft, fluffy body threw itself onto Ling Mo’s back.

But when Ling Mo turned around, the girl had already quickly let go of him, cautiously stepping back a few paces, with her face blushing as she looked down and said, “S-sorry, Boss… I was just so happy…”

“We get it, you just couldn’t help yourself… Ow!” The scrawny man beside her had barely gotten a few words out before the girl elbowed him hard in the ribs. Her neck seemed to be turning red, and she lowered her head even further. “Captain, don’t listen to Skinny Monkey’s nonsense…”

Ling Mo, meanwhile, was acutely aware of the odd looks the other two men were throwing his way. Forcing a casual smile, he replied, “Gu Shuangshuang, it’s been a while. How’s your psychic power training coming along?”

“It’s… okay…” Gu Shuangshuang mumbled, staring intently at the tips of her shoes.

The redder her ears grew, the more the overhead light began to flicker. The older, more composed-looking man immediately cleared his throat and said, “Shuangshuang, calm down-the lightbulb’s about to explode. You haven’t seen the boss in so long, and this is the first thing you want to do?”

“Ah? I-I’m sorry…” Gu Shuangshuang jumped in surprise and began apologizing profusely.

Ling Mo rubbed his temple, feeling a headache coming on. Flashing a wry smile, he shifted his gaze to the other three and said, “Skinny Monkey, Zhang Xincheng, and…” He paused, looking at the man standing at the back. Compared to the others, this one definitely stood out. It was partly due to his buzz cut and fierce, intimidating gaze, but also because of the two sharp knives hanging from his waist.

“Ye Kai.”

“Boss.” A flicker of battle intent flashed through Ye Kai’s eyes but quickly turned into surprise. “Your eyes… they’re glowing…”

“Heh.” Ling Mo merely smiled faintly, not confirming or denying anything.

“Looks like Captain Mu wasn’t exaggerating. Boss, your psychic power’s grown significantly stronger,” Ye Kai said, taking a deep breath.

“It seems like your skills must have improved a lot as well…”

No sooner had Ling Mo finished speaking than Skinny Monkey couldn’t contain his curiosity and blurted out, “Boss, this time you didn’t call us just to intercept pursuers, did you?”

“Hmm… You’re right. Actually, I have something I need you for,” Ling Mo nodded. “This matter…”
