"Even if we don't solve the problem of the poison gas bomb, the Qingdu base will be in chaos sooner or later," Yun Cangshu said, without even using his precognitive ability.
"There are too many superhumans in the base, both in the inner city and the outer city. In such a short time, even if the army is mobilized, it will be impossible to immediately control all the superhumans controlled by the puppet worms."
Moreover, many superhumans in the inner city have seen their abilities enhanced significantly due to the power-enhancing drugs, making them far more difficult to control.
Moreover, the Green Guard itself is not a monolithic entity; there must be people within it who are also controlled by the puppet insects. It is likely that the army will not be able to spare any personnel to deal with the chaos in the outer city for the time being.
"Anxiong, I'll kill him sooner or later." Long Yangyang cursed Anxiong under her breath, sighed, and summoned Miaomiao again, ordering her rose minions to tie up all the troublemakers.
Soon, the riot in the business center was brought under control. Long Yangyang waved her hand and ordered Miaomiao to send out the rest of the Rose Brothers to arrest anyone who was causing trouble in the outer city.
The crowd on the commercial street shrank back in fear when they saw the sudden surge of roses, especially those who were originally close to Long Yangyang and the others, who ran away in fear.
For a moment, the area within a five-meter radius of where Long Yangyang and her three companions were located was completely open, and no one dared to approach.
Long Yangyang: ...It makes them seem like the big villains.
"That's my Dazhuang..." An elderly woman was about to approach her bound relative when she was attacked by the other party. If she hadn't been firmly bound by rose vines, she would have been sent to the hospital in the next second.
However, given the current chaotic situation, the hospital must be in a state of utter disarray as well.
Seeing Dazhuang's utterly heartless state, the woman burst into tears: "Dazhuang, what's wrong with you? If something happens to you, how am I supposed to live...?"
The same scene occurred with most of the people who were tied up.
Hearing these sobbing and wailing sounds, Long Yangyang felt a bit overwhelmed and had no choice but to explain: "They had all used the ability-enhancing drug developed by An Xiongyuan, the former base chief. That drug has serious side effects, and their current situation is the result of taking the ability-enhancing drug."
"The research institute at the base is currently working hard to develop a drug to address these side effects. However, these people are currently disoriented and extremely aggressive, so they need to be brought under control first."
“Dazhuang,” Dazhuang’s mother cried and cursed, “I told you, what kind of potion can enhance superpowers, costing 5 points? There’s no such thing as a free lunch.”
Mom said we shouldn't buy it, why won't you listen? Waaah…
"Young lady, do you think Dazhuang can be cured? He's my only son, and he finally got lucky enough to awaken his superpowers, and now this has happened!"
Hearing these cries, Long Yangyang sighed silently. It was difficult to improve one's superpowers, but if there were shortcuts, a large number of followers would surely emerge.
Although these people have only themselves to blame for the current situation, their original intention may have been simply to make their lives a little better.
They wanted to earn more points to give themselves and their families a better chance to survive, but unfortunately, they trusted the wrong person.
Ultimately, it will harm both themselves and others. Although Long Yangyang sympathizes with these people, she cannot guarantee anything: "The research institute at the base is looking for a solution. If a solution is found, they will definitely be saved."
After speaking, Long Yangyang ignored the hopeful gazes of the group and teleported away with the others. These people had completely surrounded the area; they couldn't leave without teleporting.
Moreover, Long Yangyang had no interest in staying where she was to continue listening to their weeping and complaining.
"Sister Long, what about your little rose brothers?" Qiu Ling asked.
"Let's tie those people up. The base probably won't have the resources to deal with the puppet worm problem for a while," Long Yangyang replied. As for herself, besides helping these people remove the puppet worms, Long Yangyang thought to herself, "If I start this, I'll be exhausted."
If any problems arise along the way, these people's families will probably blame her. She wouldn't take on such a thankless and arduous task.
She can help control these people, but the rest should be left to the doctors and researchers at the base to figure out a way to remove the puppet worms from their minds.
Miao Miao had taken control of the outer city area, and the four of them headed towards the inner city area.
In contrast to the chaotic outer city, Long Ye and others, who already knew about the puppet worms, organized those who were unharmed at the first sign of the riot and led them, led by high-level ability users such as Long Yuanxi and Long Yuanchen, to suppress the rebellion.
Those who will soon be controlled by the puppet worms will be locked up together to prevent them from disrupting the peace of the base.
When Long Yangyang and the others returned to the villa, they saw Long Ye, Long Yuanxi and Long Yuanchen sitting on the sofa looking exhausted. "What happened?"
Longye rubbed his temples: "We just did the statistics. Out of our base's million-strong population, more than 30,000 have died and nearly 80,000 have been injured due to the chaos caused by the puppet insects."
There are over 200,000 people controlled by the puppet worms, including nearly 50,000 people with supernatural abilities.
The remaining people in the outer city are mostly the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled, and their basic lives are in trouble. A large number of them rely on the only superhuman in their family for support.
Now that the superhumans are under control, and we don't know how to deal with the puppet worms, the 20,000 to 30,000 Qingwei soldiers in the military region who are not controlled by the puppet worms may have trouble even maintaining the base's operation.
The farm needs people to cultivate the land, but of the original more than one hundred wood-type ability users, only twenty remain. As for the members of the ability group, many of the ability users who barely survived have the idea of leaving the Qingdu base for other bases.
Some high-level superhumans with whom they have good relationships are organizing people and preparing supplies in preparation for their departure.
“Dad, if they want to leave, just let them go,” Long Yangyang said. “Brother Xiao Tu told me a while ago that after his magnetic field ability advanced to level seven, he was able to restore the base’s network.”
"When those who want to leave do so, let them register their information. As long as they promise never to enter the Qingdu base again, they can leave if they want. This way, we can save resources for those who want to stay at the base."
"By the way, if the people with superpowers we've locked up have anything they want that they're leaving, let them take it with them. Even in the apocalypse, we still need democracy."
As for whether these people live or die after they leave, what does it matter to her? She'd love for more people to leave, so she could prevent the wood-type ability users from planting less food.
