After traversing to the apocalypse, I am extremely delighted as a Demon Cultivator

Chapter 45: The base changes, waiting for him to come back and die

Certainly, the impact of this medication is only for regular folks, not for monks. Wu Ping explained that This pill doesn’t heal monks’ injuries. He then produced a few more jade bottles, saying, “These are regeneration ointments for severed limbs. Whether it’s a broken hand or a broken foot, apply them to the wound to reconnect severed limbs and promote healing.”

“These talismans,” he continued, “You three can divide among yourselves. They significantly enhance combat prowess against humans, mutant beasts, or zombies. As for their upper realm, you’ll have to find out for yourselves. I don’t know either.”

These items were either purchased or acquired as spoils by Wu Ping. They were useless to him, but for Cao Ke and the others, possessing such talismans in this world was a significant advantage. These were not disposable items.

Cao Ke was thrilled but at a loss for words. Their only tasks seemed to assist Wu Ping in hunting zombies, planting trees, and collecting zombie crystal nuclei. What was their repayment? How could they express gratitude?

Wu Ping’s strength compared to theirs was like the sky to the ground. Cao Ke and Xu Feifei only wanted to efficiently run the base and aid Wu Ping in tree planting. But what could they offer in return? How could they express their gratitude?

“Thank you,” Cao Ke finally managed to say.

“It’s okay, just focus on planting the trees well. Now that we’ve rewarded you, let’s discuss the King Dragon,” replied Wu Ping.

“In the future, recruit individuals like him, integrate them into the base, and eliminate them,” Wu Ping advised. “In this post-apocalyptic world, strength is revered. Ensure that only the three of you are the strongest in the base, giving you the authority to make decisions without being questioned.”

“If anyone dares to disrupt the peace, just eliminate them. If they don’t enjoy the benefits, send them on their way. I won’t repeat this in the future, understand?”

“No need,” Cao Ke hastily responded, fearing to upset Wu Ping.

As for fairness, there was no absolute fairness in this new world. Wu Ping understood that this approach was necessary for the base’s temporary development, using multiple powerful evolutionists to better manage it. However, he couldn’t tolerate dissent within his ranks.

“Brother Wu, the sister, is also working for the base. We are ready to take action against King Dragon. Today marks the last time he contributes to the base. Lingling sent back news that we killed many zombies and gathered usable materials and machinery,” added Xu Feifei, speaking for Cao Ke.

“I don’t blame her. You’ve worked hard to manage the base. I understand. Don’t overthink it. When will Cao Ling and the others return?”

Relieved that Wu Ping didn’t blame him, Cao Ke smiled slightly. “They’re almost at the base’s entrance.”

“Let’s go, pick them up, and see if Wang Long has any grievances with me.”

Wu Ping finished consuming the nuclei on the large plate and stood up, his physical power once again formidable. At the same time, Dragon King sat in the passenger seat in the returning truck, smoking a cigarette. His younger brother complained while driving, “Brother Long, why do we bother with this? Every time we hunt zombies and bring back a truckload of corpses, it’s just for planting trees?”

“That tree doesn’t bear fruit and can’t be eaten. You have to use these zombie corpses to grow it. It’s a hassle. The leaves are bare and blood-red. It’s better to cut it down and use it for firewood.”

Wang Long’s foot received a kick. “Who knows? Our base boss said to plant it, so we did. It’s troublesome, but who knows, maybe it’ll bring us good luck and powerful rewards.”

“Brother Dragon, have you seen the boss of the base?”

“I’ve seen nothing. Just heard about him. His name is Wu Ping. They say he’s ruthless, skilled in torturing people, and strong. He took care of the tyrant in the basement and the big creature in the base lake.”

“That big thing might be a Level Four. These strong guys, tsk tsk.”

The younger brother’s expression changed. “What if he finds out we stole the crystal nuclei? Are we in trouble?”

“You’re overthinking it. He’s not around, and according to the old man in the base, our boss is elusive. How could he catch us embezzling? I killed for my use, and he wouldn’t know unless he was there.”

“Even if he shows up, he can only take two floors…”

Dragon King left the rest unsaid, but it seemed like everything had been said.

The younger brother grinned. “Brother Dragon, how much did you take this time?”

“Why ask? If it’s not your business, don’t bother.”

“Oh, Brother Dragon, let’s talk. It’s boring, and there’s no one else around…”

At the base entrance, Wu Ping and his group stood still, listening to the ongoing conversation through the monitoring equipment.

Xu Feifei commented coldly, “He deserves to die!”

“He’ll come to us soon. Just wait,” Wu Ping reassured.

Wu Ping then turned to Cao Ke. “Who’s the other person talking?”

Cao Ke responded, “It’s his younger brother. After my rebellion, I arranged for monitoring equipment to keep tabs on him.”

“Alright, it’s infernal.”

The team arrived shortly after. Cao Ling led the way and rushed over upon seeing Wu Ping. “Brother Wu, when did you get back?”

She wanted to hug Wu Ping, but her sister, Cao Ke, stopped her. “Look at your dirty self. I’ll wash it off later.”

“Just a bit~.” Cao Ling playfully stuck out her tongue.

Wu Ping smiled and opened his arms. “It’s okay, come and hug. I’ll take advantage of it for you.”

Being from the Immortal Cultivation Realm, Wu Ping didn’t have modern taboos about physical contact between men and women. In his subjective consciousness, they hadn’t known each other for long, but it had been several months, considering the time in the doomsday world.

Cao Ling looked at her dirty self shyly and said, “Wait for me to wash up, then I’ll hug you.”

“Hahaha, sure, I’ll wait for you to wash up and hug me.” Wu Ping’s words made the girl’s face turn even redder.
