In a post-apocalyptic world, she was reborn and became the queen of the wilderness.

Shi Qianyu's fists cracked as he glared angrily at Xia Yunxing. "Xia Yunxing, do you think I wouldn't dare to beat you up?"

The army commanders were all very polite when they met Miss Nan, but the old man of the Xia family was so arrogant.

Does this old man Xia think his status is higher than that of the three army commanders?

Shi Qianyu's face darkened completely, and his eyes pierced Xia Yunxing like knives.

His appearance made Xia Yunxing feel uneasy and increasingly nervous.

"I'm...I'm afraid of you!"

Xia Yunxing's fat belly jiggled as he tried his best to maintain his composure and retorted defiantly, "Come and hit me if you dare!"

"That's what you said!"

Shi Qianyu suddenly swung his fist, rushed in front of Xia Yunxing, and punched him twice in the eyes.

"what!"

Xia Yunxing screamed and stumbled back several steps, clutching his face.

His two eyes, squeezed into slits by his fatness, were completely black, making him look both comical and pitiful.

"You, you actually dared to hit me!" Xia Yunxing exclaimed in disbelief.

He thought Shi Qianyu would swallow this insult because of the Xia family behind him.

did not expect--

Xia Yunxing's vision was blurry, a mixture of pain and anger.

Whether before or after the apocalypse, this was the first time he had been beaten by an outsider!

"Of course I dare!" Shi Qianyu raised her fist again.

Xia Yunxing shuddered, turned around without thinking, and ran towards Zone Two, shouting a threat, "You just wait!"

His tearful voice and his act of fleeing without a fight drew boos from the surrounding crowd.

"Pah, you coward! With such meager skills, you dare to disrespect Miss Nan!"

Shi Qianyu spat at him and walked directly towards Zone 1.

Hmph, so Xia Yunxing would complain?

Ha, he can do that too!

At this moment, all three army commanders should be in District One.

"Shi Tuan, should a few of us brothers go and teach him a lesson?"

Among the onlookers were many of Shi Qianyu's soldiers. He immediately turned his wrist and looked at Xia Yunxing's back with a cold gaze.

"Need not!"

Shi Qianyu paused, turned around and stopped them, "Go on with your work, leave this to me."

Xia Yunxing was not a member of the military after all, and taking action against him without authorization based on a few casual remarks was already a violation of discipline.

Moreover, the Xia family provided a lot of supplies to the Second District refuge site and went all out when the aliens attacked the refuge site.

Both morally and logically, the Xia family should receive preferential treatment at the refugee camp.

He's only beating him without restraint because he's protecting Miss Nan.

But if others chase after him and beat him up, that would be a personal grudge.

"Yes!"

Disappointment flashed in the soldiers' eyes, but they also knew that Xia Yunxing was not someone they could beat up as easily as they wanted.

After responding, they dispersed and went on to carry out their respective tasks.

The survivors watching also seemed to be deep in thought.

Just as Shi Qianyu was about to leave, a survivor suddenly walked up to him and volunteered to be a witness.

“Team Leader Shi, if Xia Yunxing is talking nonsense and slandering you out of thin air, I am willing to be a witness to prove that he was the one who spoke rudely first, and that you beat him up because you couldn’t stand it anymore!”

"Yes, yes, I'd love to!"

"I'm willing to be a witness too!"

"He's a good-for-nothing who can only survive by relying on the Xia family..."

One survivor blurted out, then stopped midway and quickly changed his words, "How dare someone who relies on the Xia family for survival treat Miss Nan like this!"

After saying that, he looked around nervously.

Thankfully, no one from the Xia family was around.

It's common knowledge that Xia Yunxing is a good-for-nothing, but that's not something he can say.

"that is!"

"It's totally nonsense!"

The other survivors, oblivious to his guilty conscience, chimed in with their agreement.

The army commander had already told them that the large amount of supplies that the Third District obtained in exchange for a small amount of weapons was provided by Miss Nan.

The commander also said that Miss Nan has reached a cooperation agreement with the alien king in the neighboring territory.

It not only leads the alien species in its territory to fight against Lei Shi, but also allows humans to search for normal plants and animals in its territory.

Every single thing was a glimmer of hope for them to survive.

Such a good person should never be bullied by the Xia family, especially by Xia Yunxing, that good-for-nothing!

“Thank you everyone!”

Shi Qianyu cupped her hands in greeting to the survivors, a grateful smile on her face.

"But don't worry, everyone, the army commanders will definitely handle this matter impartially!"

The survivors nodded in agreement without thinking.

The three army commanders were impeccable in character!

They are completely at ease.

"Shi Tuan, you'd better go quickly!" Someone snapped out of their daze and urged Shi Qianyu to hurry up and report the incident.

Shi Qianyu nodded and continued walking towards Zone 1.

Zone 1 Refuge.

Zhao Mingzheng had already told Zhang Yiwen and Li Heng everything that Nan Ruanruan had told him.

The three men, whose combined age was nearly 150, huddled together, and it took them quite a while to calm down.

"Now that we have such a great help, we need to make some careful plans."

Zhang Yi tapped the table lightly with his index finger, paused for a moment, and then spoke.

"The back door is open. Why not send elite troops out from the rear, go straight through the Haishi Forest Park and circle around to the back of the alien group, and surround them from both sides?"

Li Heng raised his eyes, a glint of light flashing in his dark eyes beneath his sword-like eyebrows.

"Elite troops..."

Zhao Mingzheng pondered these four words for a moment before carefully speaking.

"Then why not select people from the Level 1 superhumans, and then mobilize two-thirds of the existing total energy stones to directly create a team composed entirely of Level 2 superhumans?"

"inappropriate."

After pondering for a while, Zhang Yiwen lowered his eyes and gently shook his head.

"If this team is unfortunately wiped out, then we will be completely at a disadvantage."

Instead, we should draw upon our existing level-two superhumans.

With energy stones at their disposal, they can create level-two superhumans at any time to deal with the ferocious attacks of the alien species.

Without the energy stones... well, things could get complicated.

"But if we transfer the existing level-two superhumans from the refuge, the combat strength here will drop significantly, and we will also be unable to withstand the attacks of the aliens and fall into a passive position."

Zhao Mingzheng also disagreed with Zhang Yiwen's proposal.

"Don't try to shoulder everything yourself. We have allies now."

Half of the Level 2 superhumans were transferred and the other half were kept. Similarly, half of the Level 2 mutants and their subordinate Level 1 mutants were transferred and the other half were kept.

The smaller mutants stayed on this side of the refuge, while the larger mutants and superhumans went around to the rear of Lei Shi and the others.

In critical moments, the mutants can even help the superhumans escape.

Li Heng's eyes gleamed as he thought of Da Hei and Da Zang, who were beside Nan Ruanruan.

"This is a good suggestion."

Zhao Mingzheng and Zhang Yiwen exchanged a glance, both quite interested.

“But it’s not enough if we think it’s good; we also need to ask the alien species for their opinions,” Li Heng continued.

"I'll have to trouble you, Lao Zhao, to ask Miss Nan to do this for me."

Zhang Yiwen looked at Zhao Mingzheng.

"Okay." Zhao Mingzheng nodded in agreement.

"Speaking of which-"

After finishing his business, Li Heng remembered a problem that had been bothering him for many days.

"As a human, why is it that Miss Nan can always understand the meaning of the aliens so accurately?"

Could it be that she can understand what they're saying?

"this..."

Zhang Yiwen and Zhao Mingzheng were speechless. They were also very curious about this!

But they absolutely refused to believe that Nan Ruanruan could understand the aliens' language.

"By the way, did you ask the aliens why they willingly followed her?"

Zhang Yiwen also remembered a question that had been bothering him for many days, and turned to ask Zhao Mingzheng.

Li Heng also looked at Zhao Mingzheng with curiosity.

"I haven't had time to do that yet."

Zhao Mingzheng sighed softly, shook his head, and said, "Let's ask after we've dealt with the immediate issues!"

"Ah."

Zhang Yiwen and Li Heng didn't urge them; this wasn't the most important thing right now, so there was no need to rush.

———??———

The territory of the Golden Striped Tiger—the Mirage Forest Park—covers 380 hectares and is covered with lush vegetation.

This was Nan Ruanruan's first time here.

'Hiss~'

A large gray python, more than five meters long, was coiled around a tree near the entrance and raised its head at her.

Nan Ruanruan remembered it; it was one of the second-level alien species who had willingly sent their child into her space.

"Brother Python, where is the big tiger?" Nan Ruanruan asked it.

'Hiss~'

The gray python glanced towards the highest point of the forest park, then considerately called over a small snake to lead the way.

Thanks, see you later!

Nan Ruanruan waved her hand, and Dahei led her behind the little snake as they walked uphill in the forest park.

Without the care of gardeners, the plants grew wildly, transforming the forest park into a primeval forest in their most unrestrained form.

Sunlight filters through the gaps in the leaves, shimmering on the ground like scattered gold, where various vines twist and entwine.

Countless insects and birds of various species flit and fly through this vibrant green land, chirping and twittering all around them.

Nan Ruanruan looked around with great interest.

'brush--'

Suddenly, a slender, emerald-green vine leaped up from the ground and headed straight for Nan Ruanruan's face.

This scene was witnessed by the golden monkey leader, who was sitting not far away eating tender leaves.

Its eyes widened, and it suddenly swung out a blade of earth, cutting the vine in two.

'Brush brush'

As the golden monkey leader moved, the plants that were stirring around and about to attack Nan Ruanruan instantly retreated.

The golden monkey leader was a little over a meter tall, and its thick fur shimmered with golden light in the dappled sunlight.

'Alas~'

It waved to Nan Ruanruan in a very friendly manner.

Upon seeing this, Nan Ruanruan couldn't help but smile, revealing a gentle expression.

She took out two bunches of bananas and a large bag of oranges from her spatial storage and delivered them to the golden monkey leader using vines.

'Waaaaa'

The golden monkey leader's eyes lit up. He first took a third of it for himself, and then called to the other golden monkeys playing around him.

The other golden monkeys gathered around when they heard their leader's call.

Their eyes widened, fixed intently on the bananas and oranges, their gazes filled with longing.

Some golden monkeys even couldn't resist licking their lips, with suspicious drool dripping from the corners of their mouths.

Normal plants haven't even produced fruit yet, but mutated plants that can use their special abilities to force themselves to bear fruit quickly are unwilling to do so.

They store the energy needed for the result, for future use.

This means they haven't eaten such fresh fruit in a long time.

While the golden monkey leader was distributing fruit to the other golden monkeys, Nan Ruanruan and Dahei continued on their way.

The little snake left after delivering them to the foot of the mountain where the Golden Striped Tiger lived.

Its status is too low; it's not qualified to go up the mountain.

"A big tiger!!!"

Nan Ruanruan, holding a megaphone, shouted loudly towards the mountaintop.

She could go up the mountain at will, but she was too lazy to do so, even if she didn't have to walk there herself.

The golden-haired tiger, which was lying on the mountaintop sunbathing, suddenly twitched its ears, opened its eyes, got up, and ran down the mountain.

After Nan Ruanruan finished shouting, she jumped off the big black dog's back and leaned against it quietly, waiting.

The golden-colored tiger descended very quickly.

"Big Tiger, I have something to tell you."

Upon seeing the Golden Spotted Tiger, Nan Ruanruan quickly summarized what she had agreed upon with Zhao Mingzheng.

This was no big deal, and the Golden Spotted Tiger agreed without hesitation.

"Big Tiger, find a suitable place to put this."

The golden-striped tiger lowered its head and pondered for a moment before shaking its head, signaling Nan Ruanruan to follow it.

Nan Ruanruan and Dahei immediately followed.

After going around the mountain in front of her and crossing a small path, a fairly open area came into Nan Ruanruan's view.

It was covered by a vast green ocean, and its original appearance was no longer visible.

'Roar--'

The golden-spotted tiger roared at the green before it, and the vast ocean trembled and contracted rapidly.

In no time, the greenery disappeared, leaving only a mottled, moldy empty space.

Nan Ruanruan glanced at it; it was about three acres in size, enough to store the supplies she had sorted out.

"Remember to tell the other mutants to guard the supplies and hand them over to the military when they arrive."

As Nan Ruanruan spoke, her consciousness entered the space and began to mobilize animal resources and living creatures.

Twenty minutes later, she piled the sorted rice, flour, grains, chicken, duck, and goose eggs on the open ground.

The supplies were scattered haphazardly, with many covered in mud and messy footprints of the cubs.

Many rice and flour bags were even torn by the cubs' not-so-sharp claws and teeth.

A lot of it spilled out when it landed.

Rice and beans can still be eaten after washing, but flour-based foods—

Nan Ruanruan stated that some waste is unavoidable.

She also had the cubs deliberately crush some eggs and mix them with the intact ones.

They created the illusion that the aliens had accidentally broken the eggs while carrying them.

She released another hundred pairs of poultry and livestock, all male and female, plus twenty litters of rabbits.

As long as the refuge is not breached, and as long as the refugees are carefully cared for, they will eventually be able to achieve meat freedom in a few years or a decade or so.

"Big Tiger, send some reliable Level 1 aliens to follow them."

Well... just don't let them escape your territory.

When the military arrives, they will herd them to them and let them take them away.

Nan Ruanruan looked at the animals that had already scattered and ran away, and instructed the Golden Striped Tiger.

“There should be other normal animals in your territory, so drive a few of them over to them as well.”

If it's just poultry and livestock, it might arouse unnecessary suspicion.

Nan Ruanruan is always careful when dealing with people, especially when using space.

The golden-skinned tiger nodded, remembering everything Nan Ruanruan said.
