Chapter 499: Revival
Okay.
Without overthinking, Lin An did not rebut Colonel Chu's suggestion.
In essence, he actually had no hostility toward the Huaxia war zone.
All that can be said is that someone is hostile toward him, and Lin An is merely retaliating.
What Colonel Chu said is correct.
Rather than consuming oneself internally, it's better to temporarily focus outward.
After cutting off communications, Lin An calmly looked down from the hanging window.
Lush greenery abounded.
If it weren't for the black spots like pustules mixed in, the scenery after the apocalypse would actually be quite good.
Once a road bustling with carriages and horses, it is now full of rabbits and deer leisurely strolling about.
For humans it is an apocalypse, but for other species it is actually a paradise.
As the fighter jet gradually slowed, the outline of Long'an Base gradually came into view.
The outer city has already begun construction, with many hands repairing the damaged parts of the base.
The efficiency is extremely high.
At the gradually decreasing altitude, Lin An even saw the sandworm bo duo, its body wrapped in large strips of gauze, diligently reclaiming land.
This guy has eaten so many zombies, yet it's unknown why he hasn't been poisoned.
Since he ordered the construction of the inner and outer cities, the entire base has begun operating efficiently.
Unlike before the apocalypse, when repeated discussions were needed and efficiency was low.
Here, his command is the supreme order.
At his word, everyone must unconditionally participate in the construction.
No one had any complaints.
Building the base is also building a refuge for these survivors.
Buzz—whoosh—
After the fighter jet landed smoothly on the regulated ground, many base members laboring couldn't help but gather around.
"Lord Lin An is back!"
"Lin An!"
Shouting loudly.
Excited, fervent emotions were written on everyone's faces.
As a member of Long'an Base, the stronger Lin An performed, the prouder they felt.
To them he is an enemy; to us he is a hero.
No matter how ruthless and cold-blooded Lin An appears to outsiders, even wantonly killing the 'innocent'.
But in the eyes of the base members, that is doing it splendidly.
"So satisfying! Lord Lin An!"
"You haven't seen it! Since you took action, now in the entire Huaxia war zone, not a single person dares to speak ill of us!"
"Exactly!"
"Moreover, many people are trying to curry favor with us, wanting to give us supplies for free!"
A large contingent of members from the sports institute eagerly discussed, and many of the 'small-minded' even secretly recorded the Awakened Ones who had once mocked Long'an Base.
After the battle ended, they promptly, according to the list, eagerly hurled insults back, even simply sending letters to attack.
Compared to their previous situation, Long'an Base was like a street rat that everyone shouted to beat.
Now...
Whenever a member whose identity tag bears the two characters 'Long'an' appears in the chat channel, his private messaging function instantly blows up.
No exaggeration.
Even someone like Zhang Zhicheng, who sweeps toilets and garbage, now has an identity that, when placed outside, even a regional power's leader must treat with utmost respect.
All the survivors have realized it: Long'an, or rather Lin An.
It's simply repaying grudges on the spot, with no reasoning at all.
If you provoke him, he'll say kill and kill, even in front of billions of survivors.
Many people even whispered among themselves:
"This Lin An is simply overbearing!"
Of course, regarding this, not a single base member cares.
The more you dislike me, the happier I am.
Especially since only I can eliminate you, you can't do anything to me.
After jumping off the fighter jet, before Lin An could regain his senses, a white shadow suddenly rushed forward at high speed.
"Lin An!"
"Bang!"
He was struck and staggered.
Lin An instinctively looked toward his embrace, only to see AnXia pounce over like an abandoned small beast.
The speed was too fast, so he couldn't react at all.
He inwardly twitched...
To be honest, he really isn't quite used to AnXia suddenly becoming this strong.
If it were an ordinary person, that blow just now could have left them seriously injured...
This is still the effect of AnXia intentionally suppressing power.
Third Level... truly terrifying...
They affectionately rubbed AnXia's head, gently comforting with a few words.
Looking around, Lin An unexpectedly discovered that Mo Ling was not there.
Looking at Jing Tian's smiling face, he couldn't help but ask:
"Where is Mo Ling?"
"How did the little girl disappear?"
He said while walking.
Gao Tian, who was leading the training nearby, stepped forward and said in a strange tone:
"Lin Brother, Mo Ling took two flesh puppets and ran outside."
"Before leaving, she was muttering... saying she wanted to cultivate a third-level puppet..."
He shrank his neck.
Gao Tian pointed into the distance, indicating that Mo Ling had taken the flesh puppets to "level up."
Slightly startled, Lin An shook his head, roughly guessing what had happened.
Mo Ling... probably was affected by AnXia's blow?
After becoming an Undead Body, her level cannot be increased.
Originally as a symbiont, she could at least level up by killing Awakened Ones.
But now.
Even if Lin An asked Huang Shaohua, he would get no answer.
It seems Mo Ling intends to cultivate her own "subordinates."
Most team members are about to reach Second Level, even the slowest Wen Ya is close.
Only she remains at First Level, unmoving.
He gave a few instructions.
Regarding Mo Ling's safety, Lin An is not overly worried.
Two flesh puppets are no match for ordinary Awakened Ones.
Moreover, with the traits of an Undead Body, the little girl will be fine unless she encounters a Third Level.
After briefly explaining a few matters, Lin An eagerly led everyone straight to the core fortress.
Underground second level, spiritual energy core.
Looking at the undying Asura constantly writhing on the console, Lin An rarely felt a hint of tension.
"Chu An, is there enough energy to revive Zhang Tie?"
"Will there be any problems?"
"After he revives, will he lose control?"
Feeling uneasy.
For Zhang Tie, Lin An sincerely regards him as his own brother.
Although they have not been together long, fighting side by side in the apocalypse has already made them life-and-death brothers.
Speaking from the heart, he really fears something going wrong.
If Chu An hadn't said that around two thousand people would be enough, he would have thought even dying ten or a hundred times more would be fine.
As long as Zhang Tie can be revived, he doesn't mind his hands stained with blood.
"Enough."
Gently pushing his Glasses Frame, Chu An carefully placed Xiong Hanzi's last remaining arm on the console, then took the Death Seed.
"The energy intensity absorbed by the Death Seed is enough to revive him twice."
"As long as we force the undying Asura into a dying state, making it transfer into the arm, the original Zhang Tie data will be restored."
"Next."
Under Lin An's gaze, Colonel Chu quickly output laser power commands on the control panel, continuing in a low voice:
"Injecting the Death Seed is equivalent to turning on the power."
"The only thing to note is that the energy must supply Zhang Tie's main 'information'."
"Otherwise, once the energy is absorbed by the undying Asura, we would be equivalent to creating an enhanced version of it."
After hearing, Lin An took a deep breath and nervously nodded.
He understood Chu An's meaning.
Supplying energy to Zhang Tie's consciousness in the arm results in his rebirth.
But if supplied to the undying Asura, it means disaster.
"Heavenly Person!"
"Demonic Form!"
In the solemn atmosphere, Lin An unhesitatingly activated his dual form, strengthening mental control.
Two completely different auras merged, appearing extremely evil.
Standing aside, waiting with Wen Ya for Zhang Tie's revival, Gao Tian couldn't help but hold his breath.
The scene before him resembled an evil religious ritual.
On the high platform node radiating spiritual energy, an arm was placed; Chu An in white uniform looked like a mysterious doctor from a movie.
Meanwhile, Lin An undergoing form transformation resembled an evil existence from myth.
"Get ready to strike! Beat the undying Asura to the brink of death!"
As Chu An spoke, Lin An unhesitatingly summoned the Death God phantom.
"Withering!"
The Death God phantom filling the entire underground hall gave a sinister laugh, then instantly slashed at the mass of flesh on the control console.
Flesh and blood withered.
Under precise control, the instinct-driven Undying Asura instantly sank into the arm.
On the control console.
A massive iron-blue arm, its fingertips trembling slightly.
