Chapter 121 - 121

Chapter 121 Rescue"Don't worry, Xiao Guodong, your dad will be fine!"Children can't keep secrets, and after telling her favorite older sister Ranran about her worries, she happily hugged the dog and played with it.Lin Anran smiled and shook her head. Children are definitely happier. But... a distress signal?Before she could even leave, Jiang Qinianbrought Base Chief Chen Chao in from outside.Besides Base Chief Chen Chao, Ma Yang and all the soldiers in his squad also came in.Base Chief Chen Chao smiled and nodded, giving Father Lin... Mother Lin greeted her.Father Lin dusted off his hands and greeted them warmly, " Big Brother Chen! Are you done with your work? Are you going to pick up Xiao Guodong? She's very well-behaved here, so don't worry.""No, I'm here because I have something urgent to discuss with everyone."When a large group of people stood in the living room, the spacious room instantly became crowded."Dad! What are you doing here? I don't want to go home yet, I want to play here!"Xiao Guodong's first reaction was that she was going to be taken home, but that wouldn't do. She hadn't even had a chance to get close to her lovely, gentle, kind, and beautiful fairy sister Ranran yet, so she couldn't go back."Sweetie~ Daddy didn't come to pick you up. Go play with the big dog. Daddy came to talk to your sister about something!""good!"The small figure led the dog upstairs, and only then did everyone become serious.Base Chief Chen Chao cleared his throat, looked at everyone, and said, "Our base made full preparations this time and did not suffer too many losses, but other places did suffer heavy losses."The base in the neighboring city sent a distress signal. They suffered severe injuries in this extreme weather and urgently need help. Because time is of the essence, I will lead the base's Ability User team to the rescue first.Therefore, I would like to ask you to help me protect the base, all the survivors, and my daughter.Lin Anran frowned slightly. "If only you go, you won't be of much help, will you? Besides, the journey will definitely be fraught with danger. Even if you manage to get there, you'll be exhausted!"Even though the only weakness was exposed,Base Chief Chen Chao didn't feel ashamed.From the first time he met this girl, he felt that she was extraordinary. It was not easy for her to thrive in the apocalypse and live a carefree life every day, including her family's supernatural abilities.He humbly asked, " What do you think, Ranran?""It's the invincible, kind, cute, and gentle fairyRanran! Dad, you're wrong again!"A cute, ethereal baby voice came from the second floor, drawing everyone's attention to Lin Anran, making her blush."Ahem! Let's go too!""No!" Base Chief Chen Chao's face darkened. "This matter cannot be entrusted to you; it's too dangerous!""This is a matter for our base. Since we live here, we have an obligation to help!"Lin Anran was actually a little guilty when she said this; she had her own ulterior motives.Father Lin Seeing that her daughter had an idea,Mother Lin also chimed in to support her.Father Lin: " Big Brother Chen! You should know our strength. Even if there is danger, we will protect ourselves!"Mother Lin: "Yes! We can't have all that strength and no use for it."Seeing that Base Chief Chen Chao was still hesitating, Lin Anran came up with a great idea."How about this? Even we don't have enough manpower."Our supplies have been completely depleted over the past three months. The base can recruitAbility Users in exchange for supplies. This way, our efforts won't be wasted, and we can attract even more powerful individuals to help us!Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard the idea. It was indeed a good method, and they really needed manpower. This family was far more capable than them and would definitely be of great use!"Okay! Let's do as Ranran says, we'll set off tomorrow!""Daddy! It's the invincible, kind, cute, and gentle fairy Ranran!"Lin Anran couldn't help but facepalm; she really couldn't stand this nickname! It was so embarrassing!Base Chief Chen Chao acted quickly, and teams kept signing up!In addition to the two Ability User teams that remained at the base, Luo Chun's team also stayed behind and was given important responsibilities.The next day, ten off-road vehicles set off from the base, along with a super eye-catching RV sandwiched in between.Base Chief Chen Chao pressed the intercom in the first vehicle, "Boo-hoo—Hello everyone! This is Base Chief Chen Chao. We are about to face unknown dangers. From now on, please be vigilant.""Second vehicle received!""Three vehicles received!""..."The desolate ground was covered with a thick layer of ice. The only good thing was that many zombies were frozen underground, so there was no need to worry about zombies suddenly jumping out.However, the slippery ground prevented the vehicle from moving, so Lin Anran pulled out a box of anti-skid chains from his storage space, instantly becoming the focus of everyone's attention."What a scheming woman! Why didn't she bring it out when we set off? Now she's trying to curry favor!""Alright! Xiaoxue, stop talking nonsense! She's a friend of Base Commander, don't cause trouble."Yang Xue looked disgusted. "Friends? Hmph~ Who knows what kind of friends they are? Disgusting!""Alright! Stop talking! Get in the car."Only after installing anti-skid chains could the vehicle drive safely and steadily on the ice.Base Chief Chen Chao turned the audio down to a low pitch, " Ranran, thanks to you this time.""You're welcome, Uncle Chen."Although anti-skid chains were installed, I didn't dare to drive too fast and drove all the way to the gas station on the highway.Ten vehicles formed a circle, and everyone set up tents inside the circle, while small teams were arranged around the perimeter to set up defensive lines.Lin Yu and Gu Chen set up their tent, which was spacious and bright, and those around them couldn't help but feel envious.Yang Xue stared intently at the tent, which was three times her size, with disdain. "They must be on vacation! Can't you see everyone else is crammed together? They're just wasting space!"" Yang Xue! Shut up!""Boss! You're yelling at me now, aren't you? Have you fallen for that scheming bitch too?!"She cried and wiped away her tears. Captain Xu Hu softened his tone, "Xiaoxue, that's not what I meant. I was afraid that if others heard, you would be the one punished."The commotion went unnoticed by others, andLin Anran had already set up her tent to collect dinner.Dinner was distributed by Base Chief Chen Chao, and each person's dinner consisted of a bottle of water, a bag of bread, and a compressed biscuit.Lin Yu swallowed hard, her voice complicated, "This...this is so unhealthy, I want to eat pig's trotters!"Yang Xue, who happened to be there to collect supplies, couldn't hold back any longer. "Do you think this is your home? Eating pig's trotters? This is the apocalypse, nobody's going to put up with you!"A sharp voice rang out from behind, instantly provoking dissatisfaction among those around."Yeah! That's wishful thinking. Wanting to eat pig's trotters? We're already pretty lucky to have this much to eat!""They're a friend of Base Commander, so maybe we'll actually get to eat them!""..."
