Chapter 217

Ch 217 Light of the Apocalypse 8.33

Maybe he looked too mean and full of evil intentions? Were they too afraid to respond now? Ling Chen touched his own face. He personally felt that he was pretty attractive looking.
“May I ask what is the purpose of your knocking?” A head popped out from a patrol corridor. As soon as he was done speaking, he pulled his head right back down.
Ling Chen felt that the action was very cute. He thought that An Island wasn’t as scary as people rumored.
“Ah, oh! We wanted to talk to the boss of An Island Prison. We wanted to know if that was possible. Please believe us, we aren’t here to cause trouble.” Ling Chen suddenly felt that he was a bit stupid. Why did his words sound so unconvincing even to him? After all, there were seven hundred people behind him.
Meanwhile, XunMi was feeling relaxed. She sat with Ye MingYe on the hood of their car, watching as Ling Chen did all the work by himself. December’s air was surprisingly warm, without a bit of coldness. Everywhere had changed. On the way over, they had seen numerous evolved plants and animals.
“Wait a second, I’ll go find boss.” The person on top of the wall ran off.
Ling Chen rubbed his head. Was there really such an naive person that wouldn’t doubt his words? It had to be because he looked too charming that everyone naturally trusted him.
En, that must be it.
He didn’t know that An Island Prison’s second in command’s ability was perception. He was able to detect one’s true intentions as well as their ability level. Although he couldn’t detect XunMi and Ye MingYe’s ability level, he could tell that they were extremely powerful. Therefore, as soon as they arrived, he and his boss had decided to first wait and see before attacking. If they were able to interact amicably, that would be for the best. They were all convicted prisoners, with at least a twenty year sentencing each. With this sudden twist, they only wanted to peacefully live out the rest of their lives.
Soon, Chang She walked over with a few of his men. XunMi used her perception skills and observed the man atop the wall. A long scar ran across his face, from the left of his forehead to the bottom of his right eye, making him appear a bit threatening. He definitely had a face that could make little children cry with fear. His eyes were filled with malice. He looked like he was either a killer or a gangster.
“Mr. Chang She, hello. We would like to enter An Island. We were hoping you could help.” An Island was an isolated island. The only building on the island was An Island Prison.
Ling Chen couldn’t just outright say ‘hey, I’m here to steal An Island Prison away.’ After entering the island, they could have those with relevant abilities build additional buildings.
Chang She was quiet, pondering how trustworthy Ling Chen’s words were.
“Boss, I still don’t feel any evil intentions from them. But the man and woman sitting on the car are both very strong.” A thin, weak man stood next to Chang She. He looked very much like an otaku.
“You can come in but we need to lay down three ground rules first.” Chang She finally spoke.
“That’s fine. I’ll have our boss and madam come talk with you, boss Chang She.” Ling Chen was very happy to be able to avoid a large scale fight.
Chang She had someone open up the front gates, but only allowing XunMi and Ye MingYe in. XunMi let out a playful smile. She was very interested in that otaku. More specifically, that skinny man’s abilities. After reminding Ling Chen and Song ZiQian to stay on guard with their surroundings, she created a protective shield with Ye MingYe. As long as their group didn’t step out of it, they should be safe. Even if zombies came, they wouldn’t be able to get in. When she entered the prison, XunMi finally realized why this was considered the sturdiest prison.
The structure was like a karst cave, windy and convoluted. The debate was short and sweet. Soon, Chang She had given his permission to allow XunMi and her group into An Island. As long as she was able to ensure that they wouldn’t start a fight, they were given the freedom to roam around. They also talked about creating a formal alliance and changing the official name of An Island Prison into Sacred Light Base. There were two large groups.
The first was Ye MingYe and XunMi’s Break of Dawn group. The other was the Chang She-led Sacred Brilliance group. Both had their own areas that they were responsible for.
…
After a year, the groups on An Island had fully merged into one. In the second year, the name Sacred Light Base was officially selected for their new home.
“Do you want a safe home? Do you want a peaceful life? Then come to Sacred Light Base. The people here have human rights and can lead the lives they want. For example, they can build their own home and plant vegetables…” When this kind of ad appeared, the people making their way to Sacred Light Base doubled.
When the military major at B city base heard about Sacred Light Base, he began to plan his escape. Finally, when the base was in chaos right after Ming family seized power, he left with a few of his close military friends. Later, he would be able to tell how accurate his decision was.
“I heard B city base is a mess right now. Didn’t Ming Liang take over last year? He threw Ming Mei into the research lab. He thought that maybe he would be able to find a cure through her healing abilities. But Ming Mei was also pretty amazing. Even after her legs and arms had been broken, she was still able to attract one of the research students in the lab. The research student helped her escape the lab and even healed her body. Later, she even had Xu Yi wrapped around her finger. She had Xu Yi and Ming Liang fight head to head. The whole place is in turmoil. Who knows who won in the end?” Ling Chen said dramatically, in obvious high spirits.
XunMi was surprised. It wasn’t that shocking that the female lead could climb back from her fall of disgrace. But that Xu Yi was a surprising factor.
“Then just have them fight amongst themselves first.” XunMi yawned and snuggled into Ye MingYe’s embrace.
March’s air was strangely chilly to the bone. Luckily, her husband had fire abilities. Even his body was warm. Cuddling into his lap was so comfortable.
With her ice abilities, they really were had the best heating and cooling systems year round.
After two years as their third wheel, Ling Chen wasn’t affected at all. No matter how much dog food they spread, he was too used to it.
“XunMi, news just came out. The experiment was a success!” Song ZiQian ran over, unable to hold in his excitement.
“Really?” XunMi jerked her head up. Did they finally discover the cure? After three whole years, was the apocalypse finally coming to an end?
