Apocalypse: I'm the Landlady of the Refuge-Chapter 76 - You Cant Escape
Chapter 76: Chapter 76: You Can’t Escape
Chapter 76: Chapter 76: You Can’t Escape
Originally, Ji Wanwan hadn’t planned to release people so urgently.
Having more people at the base would mean more help. Releasing these people once they got back to the base would reduce risk, yet ordinary people could not stay in the System Space for too long.
Ji Wanwan worried that these people would be swallowed by the System Space, so as soon as she got on the vehicle, she released everyone.
These individuals only felt a darkness before their eyes, entering a realm of chaos, but soon, their bodies returned to reality.
The scene before them was clearly not the laboratory.
The unknown environment filled everyone with even greater fear. They all surged toward the back half of the minibus, huddling together insecurely, trembling with fear as if the minibus were a train of death.
Ji Wanwan’s lips twitched.
Although she knew these people behaved this way due to inhuman torment, she still felt somewhat helpless.
Meanwhile, in the underground gambling den.
Ji Wanwan disappeared from before their eyes, but Baize didn’t pursue further.
He removed his mask to reveal a resplendent youthful face, stunningly beautiful to the point of being indistinguishable between male and female, captivating hearts.
“Buzz—”
The youth’s heroic eyebrows slightly arched, as he deftly moved his clearly-defined fingers, and a wide range of Space Cutting appeared in the corridor behind him.
The lethal cutting line did not distinguish friends from foes, instantly quieting the entire corridor.
The moment a slight pain tingled through his body, Hu Peng, who had anticipated this move, narrowly escaped disaster.
Looking with trepidation at the youth’s silhouette, his heart pounded furiously.
He’s killing his own people, has the boss gone mad?
In the laboratory.
Seeing a small clay dog sculpture left behind by the girl, the youth’s fingertips hooked slightly, maneuvering the clay dog to fly into his hand.
Looking at the lifelike small clay dog, the youth’s thin, rosy lips curled slightly, a smile rippling in his beautiful peach blossom eyes.
You can’t escape…
…
Wen Yuheng went full throttle, careening wildly all the way to the base, arriving before long.
The moment he stepped out of the vehicle, the Lion spat on the ground, “Young man, if you can’t drive, don’t force it. Let me do it next time!”
Ji Wanwan’s face also turned a bit pale, “Brother Wen, that was a terribly rough ride.”
I mean, space teleportation would have been better!
What baffled Wen Yuheng the most were the ordinary people who had been locked in cages.

He couldn’t understand, was his driving really that bad?
So bad that those who had previously been numb to the point of showing no expressions now had a hint of resentment in their eyes after getting off.
He hadn’t driven a minibus before either, could this be blamed on him!
After catching his breath, Ji Wanwan started dealing with the important matters.
At this time, 001 and 002 were in position, and members of small teams also arrived at the base gate to greet them first.
After briefly explaining the situation to the small team members, Ji Wanwan arranged for 001 and 002 along with Xia Li and Zhou Kai to properly settle those who had been rescued.
She also arranged for Xu Siming to take Wen Yuheng to see Xiao Lu.
In the half-day while Ji Wanwan was out, Xu Siming had cleared the Fire Energy from Xiao Lu’s body according to her instructions.
Xiao Lu was now no different from a normal person, and as long as her external injuries were cared for, she could be as lively as before.
Next were Qi Hao and Ji Xing.
Ji Wanwan handed over the minibus she retrieved to Qi Hao, who loved tinkering with vehicles, to see if he could further modify it.
She also passed on the weapons and equipment that came with it to Ji Xing, instructing him to inventory them and store them in the armory.
Seeing Ji Wanwan pulling supplies out of thin air, Lion, who had just caught his breath and come back to life, seemed contemplative.
In the underground gambling den, he found it unbelievable when he saw these things suddenly disappear.
Now seeing this vast base, Lion’s shock was beyond measure.
Such a significant base project, couldn’t have been built in just over half a month since the apocalypse began, could it?
Ji Wanwan saw through his concerns at a glance, “This place was originally an abandoned resort, now transformed by our people into a base.
As for these supplies…”
She smiled openly, “I awakened the Space System superpower, so storing a bit of small supplies is still possible.”
Looking at the minibuses Qi Hao was studying, the group of people walking with Xia Li, and the weapons and equipment scattered everywhere, Lion said, “…”
This hardly seems like just a little bit of supplies…
Lion, “Do you also have the Mind Reading Power?”
Ji Wanwan choked slightly and laughed shyly, “No, I just guessed what you were thinking by looking at your expression.”
Lion became silent once again.
Was his expression that obvious?
It seemed he would have to become more expressionless in the future…
“That being said, could you assign me a room first? Yinyin doesn’t look very well.”
Lion looked tenderly at his daughter who was unconscious in his arms, his eyes filled with sorrow.
“Of course.” Ji Wanwan raised her hand to touch Yinyin’s forehead, “She’s a bit feverish. Come with me to the surgery room first. We have medicine and diagnostic equipment there. I’ll check on Yinyin first to see if the Baize Union did anything to her.”
For Yinyin’s sake, Lion naturally agreed.
While walking to the surgery room in the Inner City, Lion silently observed the environment inside the base while talking to Ji Wanwan.
Some buildings within the base still retained the decrepitude of the abandoned resort, and the undeveloped areas were overgrown with weeds, confirming Ji Wanwan had not lied.
Seeing the farmlands, fishponds, and patrol teams within the base, Lion’s heart was filled with mixed emotions.
If he had come here at the beginning, would Xiao Hui still be alive?
It was all because of his wrong decision, taking his brothers and Xiao Hui to join the Baize Union, causing countless brothers to die a tragic death and harming his wife and daughter…
Lion lowered his head, overwhelmed with grief and guilt.
Feeling the man beside her becoming increasingly despondent, Ji Wanwan slowed her pace, “Don’t be sad, Yinyin will be fine.”
Lion breathed deeply, suppressing the pain in his heart, “Did you create this base?”
Ji Wanwan wobbled her lips slightly, “Sort of. I am the base lord, but I consult with my companions on many issues to make decisions.”
Lion couldn’t help but take a closer look at Ji Wanwan.
Although the young girl was slender, her face glowed with healthy vitality, and her attractive appearance was pleasing to the eye. The entire base’s atmosphere, just like her, radiated vitality and life, starkly different from the dark and gloomy atmosphere of the Baize Union.
But now, reflecting on these things no longer held any meaning. Xiao Hui was already dead, and most of the brothers were either dead or wounded, with the rest probably still trapped in the Baize Union, their fates unknown.
The burly man, strong as a bear, now looked weary and defeated, his whole being filled with a sense of disheartenment.
Ji Wanwan understood but still patted his arm, “Cheer up, you still have Yinyin.”
To lighten the mood, she pursed her lips and shifted the topic, “It seems you don’t quite agree with the Baize Union, so why did you choose to join in the first place?”
Lion laughed self-deprecatingly, “I couldn’t just keep wandering in this monster-infested world with my wife, daughter, and brothers, could I?
The Baize Union, under the guise of accepting refugees, lured ordinary people in to use them for human experiments. I didn’t know the Baize Union would turn out to be such an entity when I led everyone to join.”
