Chapter 246

On the other side, three helicopters slowly descended from the sky above Yun City Airport.

"This Yun City base looks quite large."

Inside one of the helicopters, the pilot was somewhat astonished as he gazed at the city surrounded by a hundred-meter-high wall.

Bai Ruo glanced indifferently, her eyes filled with disdain.

It's big, but who knows if it's just a facade.

After a while, the helicopters landed steadily.

Bai Ruo stepped out of the helicopter and walked over to Bai Hongting's side.

Just as she was about to say something, her eyes suddenly caught sight of a helicopter quietly parked nearby.

Strange, why does this helicopter look familiar?

Where have I seen it before?

She furrowed her brows slightly, trying to recall in her mind.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up.

"That's it!"

"What's wrong?"

Hearing this, Bai Hongting looked over.

Bai Ruo frowned, "Dad, do you remember the time I went to the research institute to pick up research equipment but someone got there first?"

Bai Hongting nodded.

"Why bring that up suddenly?" he asked.

Bai Ruo pointed to the helicopter, "At that time, as we were leaving, we saw someone flying a helicopter away from the direction of the research institute."

"You think that helicopter is this one?"

"Yes, exactly!"

"Helicopters all look pretty similar; maybe you got it wrong?"

"Impossible!" Bai Ruo said resolutely.

"I looked very carefully at the time. The serial number on that helicopter is exactly the same as this one. I couldn't have been mistaken!"

Hearing this, Bai Hongting also looked over.

He knew that since the apocalypse, Bai Ruo had successively awakened three abilities: telescopic vision, spatial storage, and Wood Element.

If she said she had seen it clearly, then it was probably true.

"Alright, since someone else got it first, it belongs to them. We have no reason to argue over it."

"But that was clearly..."

Bai Hongting interrupted her, "If we were to collect supplies from some place and had already brought them back to our base, and then someone came saying they also wanted those supplies and demanded we hand them over, would that be reasonable?"

Bai Ruo shook her head.

She understood the logic, but she just felt a bit uncomfortable.

"Let's ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​‍go, there are more important matters at hand."

Bai Hongting started walking towards the base's main gate.

Bai Ruo frowned but could only follow.

As they were about to approach, Liu Tao and Tao Mi'er blocked their path.

Today was their turn to be on duty at the gate.

"Hello, this is Yun City Base. May I ask what brings you here?" Liu Tao asked politely.

"We are here to exchange for Evolution Fluid," one of Bai Hongting's subordinates replied clearly.

From the fact that these people arrived by helicopter, along with their different accents and aura, Liu Tao realized that Bai Hongting and his group were not ordinary.

However, he did not cower or grovel; instead, he pointed to the temporary rest area next to them with a composed demeanor.

"Then please wait in the rest area for now. Our base leader and the key personnel are not in the base at the moment, so we cannot proceed with the exchange."

Normally, if Yun Xiaoxiao was not around, exchanging Evolution Fluid would be handled by Mu Yang.

But this time, Mu Yang had also left, and since Evolution Fluid was such an important item, others did not have the authority to handle it.

So they could only wait for Yun Xiaoxiao's return before they could exchange it with these people.

"What? You want me to stay here?" Bai Ruo was very displeased.

"Do you even know how to treat guests?

We are your customers!

The customer is king, don't you know that?!

Even if you can't exchange the Evolution Fluid for now, shouldn't you at least let us wait inside the base?

How can you treat guests by keeping them outside and making them stay in such a shabby place?!"

Tao Mi'er patiently explained, "It's like this. Our base's main gate has some special properties.

First-time visitors to our base need to meet with the base leader and be approved before they can enter.

Even if we wanted to let you in, we couldn't.

We can only wait for the base leader to return.

The rest area is not a shabby place; it has been carefully constructed.

Although it's only two stories high, it's equipped with various daily necessities.

It can meet basic living needs."

"What kind of nonsense is that? You can't enter without meeting your base leader? Who are you kidding?!"

Bai Ruo found it ridiculous.

It sounded completely fake.

Besides, they were from the Northern Base!

When had they ever suffered such treatment!

"Alright, this is someone else's territory. We should respect their rules," Bai Hongting said calmly.

Bai Ruo was a bit unhappy, but she didn't want to appear too spoiled in front of Bai Hongting, so she pouted and walked to the side.

Bai Hongting then looked at Tao Mi'er and Liu Tao.

"Then may I ask when your base leader will return?"

"This... we're not sure..."

Just as Liu Tao was about to say they weren't certain, he suddenly spotted a familiar RV.

His voice became more excited.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"They're back!"

Hearing this, Bai Hongting and the others turned their heads, following Liu Tao's gaze.

They saw a modified, flashy RV making a turn from a distance on the highway and heading towards the base gate.

Bai Ruo looked up, her lips pressed tightly together.

She wanted to see for herself who this base leader of Yun City was, to have such a big attitude!

The vehicle gradually approached.

Then it stopped.

Yun Xiaoxiao and the others got out of the car.

At the sight of Yun Xiaoxiao, both Bai Hongting and Bai Ruo's eyes showed surprise and astonishment.

Isn't that Xiaoxiao, the little girl?

Isn't that the annoying brat?

How did she end up here?

Then, they saw Liu Tao and Tao Mi'er walk towards Yun Xiaoxiao and the others.

They finally stopped in front of Yun Xiaoxiao.

"Little Base Leader, these people are here to exchange for Evolution Fluid," Liu Tao said.

After he finished speaking, Bai Hongting and Bai Ruo were both stunned.

They had never expected that the base leader of Yun City would be Yun Xiaoxiao!

A five-year-old child leading such a large base?

Isn't that too exaggerated!

Earlier, they had thought it might be one of the men behind her who was the base leader.

Bai Hongting was only surprised for a moment before regaining his composure.

If it were any other child, he might have questioned it.

But having interacted with Yun Xiaoxiao before, while surprised, he thought it made sense upon reflection.

Many adults probably didn't have the abilities of this little girl.

He looked at Yun Xiaoxiao and revealed a steady smile.

"Little girl, we meet again."

Yun Xiaoxiao leisurely smiled back, "Yes, we meet again."

She wasn't surprised by Bai Hongting's arrival.

When she first saw them in the car, she had guessed their intentions.

Wasn't it just for the Evolution Fluid?
