Su Qiqi and the others drove for almost an afternoon, and before the sun set, they finally saw the shadow of the military base.
I saw a bustling crowd at the entrance of the military base, and an endless stream of cargo vehicles. If I hadn't seen the refugees crowded at the entrance, I would have thought it was just an ordinary day before the end of the world.
Most of the refugees were covered in filth and had several holes in their bodies. Most of them guarded their bags with vigilance, fearing that all their belongings would be robbed.
"I'm telling you, I rushed out with a kitchen knife. That thing wasn't that scary. I'm not bragging to you. I slashed lightly and the monster died under my knife."
"Why is the queue so long? I'm almost exhausted from hiding around for the past few days. I want to go in and take a rest."
…
Everyone who lined up at the entrance of the base had had enough of the past few days of fleeing. Their faces were full of excitement and fear, and they told the people on the side about the horrific experiences of the past few days. While talking, they stretched their necks to look inside the Lookout military base. It seemed to contain all their future hopes.
There were also a few people neatly and cleanly dressed, with slightly raised heads and arrogant faces, which were incompatible with the noisy environment at the door.
They stood far away on the flat grass, looking down at the embarrassed refugees with disdain, disdaining the company of the refugees. There were several people beside them who were hunched over and flattering.
This kind of person is obviously either an awakened person or someone with a distinguished background.
Su Qiqi thought.
The gate of the base has seven or eight gates, but now only the two entrances on the left and right are open, which can only allow one person to pass through. It is obvious that the base set it up this way on purpose.
There is a long queue at the gate on the left. Looking towards the end of the queue at the base gate, you can't even see the edge. Most of the people entering through this entrance are refugees with yellow faces and thin muscles.
There were only two middle-aged soldiers standing at the narrow entrance. They cherished words like gold. After the refugees carefully answered their questions, they wrote and drew in a perfunctory manner on the registration form, impatiently after each registration. Wave your hand to tell the refugees to leave quickly.
"Brother, how can we go in..."
"Everyone who has registered should hurry in and don't wait in the queue. Why are there so many problems every day!"
"Hey, yes, yes, let's go now."
Some refugees wanted to talk to the soldiers to obtain information about the base, but were ruthlessly interrupted by the soldiers.
They have been really exhausted physically and mentally these past few days. There is never an end to registering refugees, and one batch after another comes.
Some refugees were still prominent figures before the apocalypse. They always felt that they could return to their status before the apocalypse, and they still regarded themselves as masters. They were really one head above the other.
Unlike the passage on the left, there is a spacious table and an empty chair that looks very comfortable at the entrance on the right. It is not too different from the dirty and messy environment on the left.
There was a thick stack of forms on the clean table. A soldier with a high authority sat opposite the empty chair and greeted everyone who came to the entrance with a smile. His warm smile made everyone who came feel very comfortable and hospitable. He was so polite that he asked the other party to fill out the form, and also chatted with the visitor. He seemed to have a great time chatting with everyone.
There is a red sign erected between the two entrances, which reads: Ordinary people please enter the entrance on the left, and those with special abilities please enter the entrance on the right.
A few refugees who had never seen or heard of superpowers were pointing in front of the sign, looking at the entrance on the right with a look of surprise on their faces, casting envious glances at everyone who went to the entrance on the right.
In the last days, there is a chasm-like gap between superpowers and refugees from the very beginning.
No amount of hard work can make up for this, unless you also awaken your powers and become a person qualified to enter the entrance on the right.
"You guys go and line up to register first. We have been at the base for a while before and have registered. You can pass directly. I will wait for you at the door later." Li Xiaotian said to Su Qiqi and Qi Yanke, Then he left with three of his men.
Su Qiqi nodded and pulled Qi Yanke towards the end of the team.
After more than two hours of moving bit by bit, the sun had already hidden behind the mountains. Soldiers came out of the base one after another, holding the guns tightly in their hands, inspecting the surrounding areas of the base to see if there were any monsters causing trouble.
The newly arrived refugees saw that it was getting dark and wanted to leave the queue and find a place to hide. But seeing that someone was protecting them, they felt at ease and continued to queue at the back.
When Su Qiqi's stomach growled with hunger, they were finally in line.
"Name, age, gender." The soldier at the door flipped the paper in his hand without even looking at them.
"Su Xiaoqi, 19, gender...female."
Su Qiqi was speechless. Is this considered registration?
"Are you injured?" The soldier lowered his head and glanced at Su Qiqi, but when he saw Su Qiqi's delicate face, he couldn't help but take another look.
"No."
"Okay, let's go, next one!"
Qi Yanke also registered immediately and said that he had been injured. The soldier just asked him to explain the reason and marked it on the form. He felt that he wasted a lot of his time. After registering, he quickly waved his hand to let him in quickly. .
The inspection upon entry into the base was quite perfunctory. I'm afraid there will be problems later. Will the management of the base not care about it?
Su Qiqi frowned.
As soon as they entered the base, they came to a large and very messy open space.
There were many refugees passing by in a hurry. There was a lot of rubbish on the ground, but no one came to clean it up. The corners of the open space were filled with all kinds of building materials. Many refugees were carrying the buildings huffing and puffing. Materials are shipped to unknown locations.
On the left side of the open space is a large playground. There are colorful tents stationed on the playground. The tents are of different sizes. Some of the tents have even had one side completely dented, and some have several big holes.
The refugees, who were used to seeing clean streets in the city, frowned when they saw this scene. They couldn't believe that they would have to live in such a place for some time to come.
Su Qiqi looked around the tent area and saw almost no young adults, only the elderly and children.
Thinking of the refugees carrying construction materials, Su Qiqi guessed that all the young and middle-aged laborers in this base should have been assigned jobs by the base.
After all, it is impossible for the base to support them in vain, and no matter how much supplies there are, it cannot withstand the large number of refugees.
Not far away from the right side of the open space are neat white-painted dormitory buildings. They stand there rhythmically one after another. Most of the balconies have clothes and bedding hanging on them. These should be the dormitory buildings of the former military camp.
Behind the open space are seven or eight squat six-story buildings and a gray-blue high-rise with more than ten floors. I guess this should be an administrative building or something.
Su Qiqi has never been here before, so she can only make subjective guesses.
"Is this good? So fast!" Li Xiaotian came from the direction of the dormitory on the right and waved her arm towards Su Qiqi. He was a little surprised to see that she had passed the inspection at this time.
"Are you quick? I feel like my waist is starting to get sore after queuing for two hours." Su Qiqi stretched her body.
"The day before yesterday, one person had to check the refugee area for more than ten minutes. There were not so many people at that time, and the filming took more than three hours. Now there are so many people, you can line up today..."
"We didn't come across any inspections this time, so we can just tell you the situation."
Is this the base's management becoming more and more relaxed?
"Guessed it." Li Xiaotian nodded in understanding, "I'll go find out what happened later."
"Let's not talk about it for now. Qi Yanke's injury is serious. I know a water power user who can treat Qi Yanke."
"Really! Do you need any reward?" Su Qiqi asked hurriedly when she heard that there was a water power user. She also wanted Qi Yan to recover as soon as possible.
"No need. I'm a very good friend. It's easy to do with a little effort. But if you feel bad about it, just join our organization."
Su Qiqi glanced at Li Xiaotian and walked away.
"Okay, I'm teasing you, just think that you owe me a favor and you have to pay it back later." Seeing that he looked like he was about to leave, Li Xiaotian stopped joking and raised her hand to pat her shoulder.
"good!"
Su Qiqi nodded. Li Xiaotian had been helping them along the way. Even if Li Xiaotian came to her for something later, she would help as much as she could.
…
"The dice have been recharged. Do you want to use them?"
On the way to follow Li Xiaotian to find the water superpower, everything around him suddenly stopped, and an emotionless system sound sounded.
Energy replenished?
It seems that after using it once, the energy can be replenished before it can be used a second time. So what energy does the dice replenish?
Replenish yourself over time? Or did you kill the monsters yourself to replenish them?
Su Qiqi put her right hand into her pocket, and the two cold crystal cores brought a unique touch.
Still there.
That is not the energy provided by the crystal nucleus.
Let’s wait until we settle down to find out what it is specifically.
Su Qiqi scratched her head.
If the luck value is high, Qi Yanke's treatment should be smoother this time.
"Use!" Therefore, Su Qiqi muttered silently without hesitation.
Gurgling, the dice flipped and finally stopped at the only red dot.
What will happen if you stop at the points with no points? Or you won’t stop at these points at all.
Su Qiqi couldn't confirm. After all, she had only used it twice, and both times it stopped at the red dot.
"This time it is 1 point. Because the level is too low, I randomly add points. This time I am lucky +1, and the total lucky value is 2 points!" Another ruthless mechanical female voice.
"Hey, in order to motivate the host, this time the lucky value will be given as +1. Reminder: The lucky value bonus is short-lived, and the time is within 2 hours of using the dice. In principle, the total lucky value should not exceed 10 points." The familiar mechanical The girl rang again.
It even gave me 1 point of luck. Although it was only valid for 2 hours, it was for free.
As for not exceeding ten points, Su Qiqi didn't care. After all, he only said that in principle, he didn't say that it must not be exceeded. What does that sentence mean: rules are meant to be broken!
The moment the voice fell, the scene in front of Su Qiqi's eyes started to move. She still looked calm and followed Li Xiaotian.
