“Nothing. Make sure you don’t lose the card. You need to use it to make a record once you’ve returned. It’s okay even if you failed the mission. The most important thing is your own safety, understand?”

Li Ran felt that there was a hidden meaning behind the woman in charge’s words. The mission was probably not as simple as she had imagined.

There must be more to the intelligent zombies and mutated plants.

Once the woman in charge had finished speaking, she left the room and continued with her work.

Li Ran went directly to the helicopter site. She did not want to overthink.

‘I’ll handle things based on the situation.’

The helicopter took off and Li Ran looked out through the window.

Everything was barren.

The area around the safety base was cleared out. There were no signs of zombies.

However, it was very different in other areas.

After traveling for a short distance, Li Ran could see a bunch of zombies walking on the streets. Some of the zombies were by themselves while others were in hordes.

“Is this in another city?” asked Li Ran.

“Yes, there were no more resources in our city so we had to arrange for our men to scavenge at further places. The team that you’re going to rescue is at a pig farm. They chose that place because it was a remote area and it’s less likely for the pigs to be mutated.”

The person who replied to Li Ran could not help but swallow his saliva and sighed miserably.

“I haven’t eaten meat for a long time. Now, I don’t even remember what pork tastes like.”

Li Ran tried to cheer the man up.

“Maybe we’ll meet someone with the ability to shift-shape into a pig. Then, he could be our base’s mascot.”

The man’s eyes lit up.

“Yes! That would be splendid!”

His comical expression made Li Ran giggle.

“Do other cities have safety bases? It’s been so long. Even if there are resources, there shouldn’t be much left, right?”

With the details that were provided by the woman in charge earlier, Li Ran learned that the team had gone to a county town in a neighboring province to look for supplies.

“It’s only been a month. Besides, a lot of people died when the outbreak initially started. The infection spreads quickly. It’s very likely that there weren’t many people left in this area. Moreover, we haven’t found any safety bases nearby, so we wanted to try our luck. It’s a shame that our team ran into danger.”

Li Ran nodded.

The team who had requested help also noted that the place was very noisy.

However, they were unsure who or what was making the noise.

The most valuable information was the team member’s abilities and their location.

Li Ran sighed emotionally.

Luckily, they also have a person with water power in their team. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have lasted this long.”

The man agreed.

“The water used in the safety base is provided by people with water abilities. If it weren’t for them, you can just imagine how miserable our life would be. As you know, the pollution has caused water to become scarce.”

Lin Ran thought about the freshwater lake in the mysterious space.

Fortunately, no one knew about it.

Otherwise, they would pester her to provide water and the lake would dry up in no time.

She was unsure if the system would replenish the water regularly.

Then, Li Ran stretched her hands and touched her back. There was nothing there.

‘It’s all up to the mysterious space on what it wants to do.’

After some time, they reached their destination.

There were no signs of living people.

Only a farmhouse that looked like a factory could be seen. It occupied a large area.

Next to it were some open-air pigpens. A few dead pigs lying around.

Li Ran looked further into the distance. She was instantly dumbfounded.

All she could see were zombies.
