Shen Yiyue saw Ning Yu come out and happily took her hand.
"How was it? Didn't they take anything from you, did they?"
Ning Yu leaned closer to Shen Yiyue and whispered.
"No, Xiao Yu, they just asked a few random questions."
Shen Yiyue smiled and whispered back to Ning Yu.
Next to them, Shen Qianqian watched her sister and the beautiful silver-haired sister, looking very close, and felt a bit of admiration in her heart:
Sister likes her so much, Ning Yu must be a gentle and kind person!
Shen Yiyue and Ning Yu naturally didn't know Shen Qianqian's little thoughts.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man ran over, not dressed in uniform but in ordinary middle-aged attire.
He saw a girl from Tianshen Elementary School who had just finished her medical examination and couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes:
"Yuan Yuan!"
The little girl also saw the middle-aged man and ran over like a bullet, diving into his arms as he crouched down.
"Dad!!"
The three of them saw this scene of father and daughter reuniting and each had different feelings.
Ning Yu stared at the man; this should be Wang Yuan's father, as Ji Mengyao had mentioned before.
This man was also a member of the exploration team, but he didn't look like a awakened person at all.
Judging from this, perhaps ordinary people could also join the exploration team.
Shen Yiyue and Shen Qianqian watched this scene in silence, their expressions a mix of envy and helplessness.
"Let's go! Take you to quarantine!"
Ji Mengyao also finished her medical examination and waved to Ning Yu and the others, showing special concern for them.
Her intention to invite them to join the exploration team was almost written on her face.
A few lone children from Tianshen Elementary School didn't go with them but were led away by another woman.
As Ji Mengyao said, lone children in the base were the only exception; they would be arranged separately.
These children from Tianshen Elementary School would live and study with other children and wouldn't have to face the issue of working for food and lodging for now.
Ning Yu and the other two had already formed a temporary family, so they were arranged to live in an apartment upstairs.
After one day of quarantine, they could move around freely.
Everyone here could contribute to the base through labor related to the base's construction or exploration, earning corresponding vouchers, which served as the base's temporary currency.
Everyone could exchange these vouchers for various supplies from the base.
As long as it wasn't something too niche, it was generally available.
Of course, you could choose not to work at all, but then you had to rely on your own food.
As for water and electricity, you could exchange a certain amount of food for a quota from the base.
"That's basically it!"
Ji Mengyao led Ning Yu and the others to a two-bedroom apartment, standing at the door.
The interior was exquisitely decorated; everything here was newly built, with excellent conditions.
"In short, we don't keep idle people here, but as long as you're willing to work, basic sustenance is definitely not a problem!"
Ji Mengyao explained the most important principle of the base.
"For the first three days, water, electricity, and food are all free!"
She handed some vouchers she had just received from the logistics team to Shen Yiyue.
"If you feel it's not good here, you're free to come and go!"
Though very reluctant, Ji Mengyao still dutifully stated this fact.
For most people, this could be ignored; the outside world was so terrifying that this place was almost like paradise.
Ordinary people would be eager to come here, so why would they leave and risk venturing outside?
But for someone like Ning Yu and Shen Yiyue, who had abilities, the safety conditions here were easily obtainable.
In a world where the strong prey on the weak, strength strongly correlates with your level of happiness.
"Here are the names and information of our parents, thank you!"
Shen Yiyue had already written down her parents' information on the paper and pen she had just received and handed it to Ji Mengyao.
Ji Mengyao waved her hand:
"No problem, no problem!"
She adjusted her baseball cap and turned to leave, leaving a distant message:
"I'll come and tell you whether I find anything or not!"
Closing the door, Shen Yiyue saw her sister already exclaiming in delight in the room.
After long periods of traveling in harsh environments, she hadn't enjoyed such good living conditions in a long time.
Ning Yu had already magically produced a few snacks from her bag, the kind little girls love, and handed them to Shen Qianqian.
"Here, must be starving, right?"
Shen Qianqian saw the snacks and almost couldn't move, but then she looked at her sister hesitantly.
"Go ahead and eat, your sister's snacks are with me too~"
Ning Yu saw Shen Qianqian's concern and added with a smile.
Hearing this, Shen Qianqian finally took them with confidence:
"Thank you, Ning Yu sister!"
She thought to herself, my sister and Ning Yu sister's relationship is really good!
"Qianqian, go take a bath after eating~"
Shen Yiyue also walked over, stroking her sister's dirty hair with some heartache for all the hardships she had endured.
"Mm!"
Shen Qianqian had already stuffed her mouth full of snacks and nodded obediently.
Shen Yiyue looked up and saw that Ning Yu had already walked to the window, looking down at the entire base.
She followed and stood beside Ning Yu.
"Xiao Yu... will you stay here?"
Hearing this question, Ning Yu looked up indifferently, her amber eyes meeting Shen Yiyue's, her expression calm:
"Do you want to stay here?"
"I...."
Shen Yiyue suddenly stammered, of course, she wanted to travel through the apocalypse with Ning Yu.
It was a pact between the two of them, starting from when Ning Yu saved her.
But if she continued to travel with Ning Yu, it would be difficult to take care of her sister, who was just a little girl who didn't understand anything.
She couldn't take care of her in battles, and leaving her alone would also be very dangerous.
From this perspective, she had to stay here; only here was her sister temporarily safe.
The best scenario would be that Ning Yu also wanted to stay here, and they all lived here together.
But she had no idea what Ning Yu really wanted.
Ning Yu seemed to need nothing; safety, food, water were as simple as breathing to her.
She was like a doll without desires, without anything in this world she wanted to chase.
Sometimes Shen Yiyue couldn't see through Ning Yu's thoughts.
But a pact was a pact; without Ning Yu, there would be no her today.
"I.... I want to be with Xiao Yu...."
"Idiot."
Before Shen Yiyue could finish speaking, Ning Yu interrupted her, smiling as she reached out and pinched Shen Yiyue's face, pulling it hard.
"Huh?"
Suddenly being pinched, she even forgot to cry out in pain, not understanding what Ning Yu meant.
Ning Yu leaned closer to her face and said:
"What are you thinking about?"
"I'll stay here temporarily, don't worry."
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."

However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary.
