Immortal in The Apocalypse

The staff nodded to the middle-aged man with a smile on her face, took his badge, and scanned the badge with a scanner specially modified by the public office. A few seconds later, the middle-aged man’s personal information appeared on the laptop screen.

The staff then typed a few lines of commands on the keyboard, then looked at the middle-aged man, and said, "Sir, you have seventy contribution points. Do you want to redeem all of your points?"

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Yes. I want to use half of my contribution points to exchange for weapons and armor, and the remaining contribution points to exchange for supplies."

After he said that, the staff opened a book, showed it to him, and said, "Sir, you can choose what you want from the list on this page."

Soon, the middle-aged man chose a long sword, a chest protector, and a package of supplies. After the middle-aged man completed the transaction, the staff returned the badge to him and said, "Thank you for your patronage."

After the middle-aged man left, the staff looked at Zhu Lin and asked, "Miss Zhu, have you selected the mission that you want?"

Zhu Lin shook her head, returned the book to the staff, and said, "There is no mission that I want for now. Thank you for your help."

After thanking the staff, she walked towards the entrance of Sector E. When she got there, Zhu Lin saw Zheng Yimu and his subordinates there. She walked up to him and said, "Captain Zheng, good morning. Are you going out too?"

Hearing her question, Zheng Yimu turned to look at her and said with a smile: "Mhm. We are going to go out now to check the situation outside. Since the temperature is still rising, Captain Xiu asked us to check the surrounding area just in case."

After he said that, one of the soldiers said, "Miss Zhu, long time no see."

Zhu Lin turned to look at the soldier, thought for a moment, and said, "I remember you. Didn’t you use the wood element talisman to grow a mini watermelon?"

Thinking of the mini watermelon incident, the soldier blushed slightly and said, "Miss Zhu, my name is Zhao Suyou. You can just call me Suyou. Thanks to your guidance at that time, my ability finally reached the fourth rank. Thank you very much."

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, "I didn’t do anything. Your current strength is all due to your hard work and diligence."

While the two of them were chatting, the guard saw Zhu Lin. He quickly approached her and asked, "Miss Zhu, what brought you here so early in the morning?"

Zhu Lin looked at the guard and said, "I want to go out and check the frozen lake."

Hearing that she also wanted to check the frozen lake, Zheng Yimu asked, "Miss Zhu, how about you come with us? We are also going to check the frozen lake."

She thought about it and agreed to Zheng Yimu’s suggestion. She nodded to him and said, "Then I will join your team today. Thank you, Captain Zheng, for the invitation."

Knowing her strength, Zheng Yimu smiled and said, "This is our honor."

After making some arrangements, Zheng Yimu and Zhu Lin left the base with the soldiers. As soon as they walked out of the Wu Lin base, Zheng Yimu and the soldiers shivered from the cold wind.

Although the temperature outside is not as cold as before, they are only wearing thin winter clothing. Looking at Zhu Lin’s thick red cloak, they all felt a little envious. Noticing that their eyes were on her phoenix feather cloak, Zhu Lin thought for a while and took out one demon core of the lava fish.

When the demon core of the lava fish appeared on her palm, the temperature around her increased immediately. Noticing the sudden temperature change, Zheng Yimu curiously looked at the big red pearl.

He pointed at the big red pearl and asked, "Miss Zhu, what is that? It seems that as soon as you take out that red pearl, the temperature becomes warmer."

Zhu Lin looked at the demon core of the lava fish and said, "This is the demon core of the lava fish. It contains dense fire element spiritual energy, and can be used to keep you warm."

After saying that, she used her divine energy to wrap up the demon core of the lava fish, then handed it to Zheng Yimu, and said, "You can use it as a heater for the time being."

Holding the demon core in his palm, Zheng Yimu felt warm. He looked at Zhu Lin and said sincerely: "Then I will not refuse Miss Zhu’s kindness. Thank you."

"Mhm." Zhu Lin nodded to him and started walking towards the frozen lake.

Looking at her back, Zheng Yimu smiled and thought: ’Inviting her to join my team is indeed the right decision. With Miss Zhu on my team, if something unforeseen happens, everyone should be able to return alive.’

With the demon core of the lava fish, Zheng Yimu and the soldiers felt warm and were in a better mood. Walking towards the frozen lake, Zhu Lin spread her divine sense and checked the surrounding area carefully. After walking for more than three hours and finding nothing, they took a short break before continuing walking towards the frozen lake.

Looking at the vast snowfield in front of him, Zheng Yimu suddenly said, "Be careful. Someone is walking towards us."

As soon as these words were spoken, the soldiers raised their weapons and prepared for battle. As for the man who faced the weapons, the man was so happy that he almost cried when he saw Zheng Yimu, Zhu Lin, and the soldiers.

After a while, Zheng Yimu found that that man was too weak to speak and said, "Stay alert. I’m going to check on him."

The soldiers nodded and looked at the man vigilantly, while Zheng Yimu raised his weapon and walked up to him.
