Rebirth: I Will Win Easily in the Apocalypse

Chapter 106: Chapter 94: The Extreme Heat Arrives

In the days that followed, Chu Guodong’s Squad 532 assisted the incoming military in uncovering the evidence of illegal experimentation conducted by the high-ranking officials and the underground laboratory at Liancheng Base, leading to a major overhaul of the leadership from top to bottom.

The new base leader was an impartial and stern man, whose methods were impressive, and soon stabilized the upheaval in Lian City, restoring life to its former calm.

The test subjects rescued from the underground laboratory were also aided by the military upon the new leader’s request, those wishing to return to their hometowns were escorted back by the troops, and those who had nowhere else to go were also well accommodated at Liancheng Base.

The people from the nearby villages were finally able to return to their homes. Tragically, of the forty or fifty villagers who had gone missing, fewer than twenty returned in good condition.

Some young men who had been robust before their disappearances were now so emaciated that their clothes hung loosely on their skeletal frames.

Out of a desire to compensate, the new leader consulted the victims and their families. Those willing to reside at Liancheng Base were unconditionally welcomed and were provided with housing and employment opportunities. Sadly, having endured such great suffering, they now desired only to move as far away from Liancheng Base as possible.

Once everything settled down, Gu Yanzhi and his group resumed their journey to the Capital Base; by then, a month had elapsed since they had left City C.

The environmental temperature had risen from sub-zero back to above zero, marking the end of two years of bitter cold.
