At the end of his sentence, he suddenly realized that the past two days were indeed different. Normally, they drank water made by superpowered people, but for the past two days, they drank purified water.
Did the problem really lie in the water?
At this time, Mu Lin and Er Dai Yan Qiyue also came over. Shao Qing took them and asked the fat base chief to take out water and food.
Yan Qiyue stepped forward first and began to check.
The others also paid close attention to it. After all, they wanted to find out the truth.
This base was relatively small, and there weren't many researchers in it. Yan Qiyue was the only one they could rely on.
The more Yan Qiyue studied, the angrier his face became. After a while, he said, "There's something wrong with the water and the vegetables."
He showed everyone what he had found. It was a kind of black liquid. There was more of it in the water and less in the vegetables.
At this moment, not only did his face turn ugly, the others' faces also turned ugly. Could it be that the water source was completely contaminated by the corpse poison? If that was the case, they could only drink water made by superpowered people in the future.
The water made by superpowered people was always the purest, because they could separate the cleanest water molecules. They could even extract clean water from sewage.
However, after the purified water became undrinkable, the superpowered people who relied only on water would be affected greatly.
Fortunately, superpowered people didn't need to worry about being infected. It didn't matter what they drank.
Immediately, someone was confused. "We used to drink the same water. Why didn't anything happen? But these three people came to our base, and now there's something wrong with our base."
As soon as he said that, many people began to doubt Shao Qing and the others. After all, he was right. They used to drink the purified water, and nothing happened. Why did it happen today?
Shao Qing glanced at them coldly, then said, "Idiots. I don't have any reason to attack your base, because even if all the ordinary people and superpowered people in your base work together, they can't cause any harm to me."
When she said that, these people thought that she was being pretentious. Immediately, there were people below who laughed. They were probably laughing at her for overestimating herself. Even if she was pretentious, she should be more reliable.
Shao Qing wouldn't lower herself to the same level as these ignorant people. She just needed to use her strength to speak for herself.
Then, Shao Qing released the pressure of a high-level superpower possessor. A level-seven superpower possessor was like a legend to this group of people.
Shao Qing released her aura fiercely. Some of the weaker ones were not prepared and immediately knelt on the ground.
Mu Lin giggled at the side. "Yo, grandson, now you know how to kneel before your grandmother?"
Their faces turned red from embarrassment, but none of them dared to say anything because their hearts were filled with shock. Although they couldn't sense what level Shao Qing was exactly, she was definitely far above them.
The big fat base chief's eyes were full of stars. He stammered, "High, high, high, high … Master! You must be a Level 6 Arcanist! "
Shao Qing didn't nod or shake her head. She just said, "Qiyue, tell them what you found."
Yan Qiyue nodded and said, "The amount of zombie poison in the vegetables is very weak. Unless you eat them for more than ten years, you won't turn into a zombie. The zombie poison in the water is enough to turn people into zombies in a short time. This kind of zombie poison can't be completely purified using purifiers. I don't know if it's because of your base or because it's happening everywhere."
"I don't know what you're going to do." Shao Qing looked at the base chief. He hesitated for a moment and said, "When the superpower possessors who went out come back, we'll leave this base. Right now, we're preparing to find a large base to settle down in."
"If that's the case, you can tell the passing bases to check their own water sources and food. Don't let the other bases repeat the tragedy of this base." Shao Qing looked at the sky. It was almost dawn. The wilderness was actually the most dangerous at this time. Of course, that was for other people.
For Shao Qing and the others, there was no difference between day and night.
"We'll leave first." Shao Qing said goodbye on the spot.
The fat base chief was reluctant to part with them. In the end, he sent Shao Qing and the others away.
The atmosphere between Shao Qing and the others was very gloomy. Shao Qing said calmly, "In the next few days, we have to speed up and try to reach Jingdu as soon as possible. We have to tell the people in power in Jingdu about this. If the environment continues to deteriorate, it will be too dangerous. Especially those ordinary people. Even if they live in the base, they can easily turn into zombies."
Although it was said that after a year of the apocalypse, many ordinary people had died. However, the number of ordinary people was still much more than the superpower possessors. If all the ordinary people died, then the entire population of the Celestial Empire would instantly drop by 90%.
What a frightening ratio.
According to this situation, the future world would really only have superpower possessors because of natural selection.
This was not what Shao Qing wanted to see.
"Maybe it's not as bad as we think. Maybe the water source of this base has been contaminated." Yan Qiyue comforted her softly.
Shao Qing responded, but the worry in her heart grew stronger. She always felt that things were not so simple. At least, it was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
After all, as those people said, they had used the purified water source before, but there was no problem in the base. Why would there be a problem today?
There were only two possibilities. Either someone really poisoned the water source, or the water source was contaminated recently. If it was the latter, it could really prove that the environment was slowly deteriorating.
Shao Qing looked at the sky. Her face was expressionless, but there was a faint sadness in her heart. It was probably nature's revenge for the destruction of nature by mankind. Therefore, when the apocalypse came, everything that mankind had done to nature was multiplied by nature.
No wonder there was such a saying. Karma, good and evil, retribution. It was not that there was no retribution, but that the time had not yet come.
Mankind had finally tasted the bitter fruit that they had planted.
