Post-Apocalyptic Rebirth: The Ghost Guanyin Transforms into a God
Chapter 258 City Lord
July 20, 2022
Someone accidentally turned on the stereo, attracting the mutants, and several members of the guard team were killed.
Fortunately, the mutant was dealt with, but its corpse contaminated the land, making it impossible to grow food in the city. We had to look for land outside the city, and supplies became scarce again.
The captain decided to take out all the crystal cores they had collected to make the ability users stronger, which would also solve the problem of someone stealing crystal cores from the police station.
Everyone is being so cautious these days; it's so oppressive.
Someone else has committed suicide.
The morning sunlight streamed into the courtyard, illuminating the window frames; the city awoke, and gradually began to bustle.
Miao Yin pulled back the curtain and stretched her muscles, which had become loose from sleeping.
Judging by the time, the army should have already set off by now.
The road to Yuecheng isn't in good condition, and with so many of them, it'll probably take them even longer.
"Ding dong."
The doorbell rang outside. Miao Yin looked down and saw two people wearing blue armbands standing at the door.
Guards?
The person who opened the door was Yan Shuzhou, and they exchanged a few words at the door.
Yan Shuzhou turned around and met Miao Yin's gaze at her by the window.
"Come to find me?"
It seems this city lord is really taking this matter seriously.
Miao Yin put on a pair of sunglasses, turned around and went downstairs to the courtyard. Yan Shuzhou did not let the two people in, but just waited there.
Upon seeing Miao Yin, Yan Shuzhou explained, "Sister, they said that the city lord wants to ask us about what's going to happen next."
The man in blue armbands nodded: "Although the Dream City army has not yet arrived, the city lord still wants to find out as soon as possible, since it is a matter of great importance. Please find the leader."
“That’s me,” Miao Yin said.
The man looked at her with some surprise: "This... I didn't expect her to be so young."
The older man in the blue armband was more composed: "Hello, our city lord has wanted to see you for a long time. Is it convenient for you to come over now?"
“It’s convenient, lead the way,” Miao Yin said.
“Sister, I…” Yan Shuzhou said.
"Let's go together if you want."
"Okay." His eyes lit up, and he looked very happy.
Because Moon City was originally a sanctuary built by the police department, it still retains the police style in many aspects.
For example, the police cars parked outside right now.
Miao Yin: "...Did you get into a police car under these circumstances?"
The man in the blue armband explained, "We're used to driving like this, it's fine. We still have to go to the police station later."
Miao Yin raised an eyebrow, said nothing, and sat down in the back with peace of mind.
Fortunately, it's just a means of transportation, not a real police siren.
About ten minutes later, the police car stopped in front of the police station, and the man in blue armbands opened the car door.
Miao Yin stepped out of the car, and the first thing she saw was a blue plaque.
She knew that the administrators of Moon City had a habit of working in the police station, where they lived and ate, but she never expected to witness it in person.
"Just come this way."
Miao Yin and Yan Shuzhou followed them into the police station, where they were greeted by a wall covered with red banners.
A map of Moon City was prominently displayed. The detention room and the visiting room seemed to have been repurposed, with boxes of files and pens and paper piled on the table, and several people busily working on their tasks.
The clattering of keyboards came from the open door, accompanied by the sounds of quiet conversation.
Go up two floors and turn in, and you'll find the city lord's office. Surprisingly, it's not on a high floor, nor is it particularly secluded, and it's even unguarded.
The man in the blue armband knocked on the door, and after receiving a call from inside, opened the office door.
The printer clicked away, and a faint smell of smoke filled the room.
Beside a desk piled high with documents, a tall man sat, frowning as he smoked a cigarette. His stern expression softened slightly when he saw them.
He pointed to the bench over there with the finger holding the cigarette: "Sit."
The man in blue armbands picked up the kettle next to him, poured a glass of water for each of them, and then said...
"Captain, I'll head out now, I have something else to attend to."
"Go ahead," the man waved his hand.
He stubbed out his cigarette and got up to stretch his limbs.
"Sitting all day long, my old back is really giving out."
He walked to the other side of the bench, looked at them, and suddenly clicked his tongue.
"That Dream City guy kept rambling on about a team of superhumans coming. I wondered what they would be like, but they're so young. Has the area fallen so low that they need a few kids like you to step up? They're really pathetic."
“Ability knows no age,” Miao Yin replied.
Upon hearing this, he pointed at Miao Yin again: "Little girl, what's wrong with your eyes?"
Miao Yin pulled her sunglasses down a little, revealing her dark pupils. She blinked and said, "My superpower is too conspicuous. I'm just covering it up."
The man nodded knowingly: "Superpowers are quite troublesome, but luckily I don't have any. Let's get acquainted. I'm Hu Hai, and I'm currently the manager of the Moon City Base."
"My name is Miao Yin, and his name is Yan Shuzhou."
Hu Hai smiled and said, "Nice name. I've heard you guys are pretty amazing. I'm also an ability user. My ability is to replenish my ammunition indefinitely. What about yours?"
Miao Yin had heard of Hu Hai's abilities; he was a special type of ability user.
Any firearm or other type of firearm, once it falls into his hands, will have an endless supply of ammunition.
And as long as the gun isn't completely broken and unusable, it can miraculously keep firing bullets, the type of bullets of which is determined by the gun itself.
It may seem like just a simple superpower, but when he combines it with specially modified firearms, he becomes an unstoppable force.
He alone is an inexhaustible and extremely powerful weapon.
It was precisely this skill that enabled him to lead the refugees of Moon City out of the encirclement and build the base.
Flames coiled around her fingertips as Miao Yin said, "I am a fire-type ability user."
Yan Shuzhou: "I am a summoner."
Hu Hai's eyes flickered: "Summoner? That's a rare ability. What kind of summoned creatures are they?"
Hu Hai felt a slight tickling sensation on his ankle. He looked down and saw a pink and white rabbit lying on his shoe.
"Hey!" He picked up the rabbit, his face full of curiosity. "So it's an animal. That's interesting."
The Nine-Tasseled Rabbit twitched its ears and disappeared from his hand with a bang. Hu Hai rubbed his fingers together, looking somewhat unsatisfied.
"However, if that's all there is to it, going to the armory would probably be a dead end."
"Oh?" Miao Yin understood his implication. "Someone has already gone in?"
Hu Hai smiled and said, "The young lady is clever. How could the government have been delaying entering such an important place as the armory for so long? They went there back in April."
The armory was of paramount importance, and all operations were conducted with secrecy as the top priority. As a result, the outside world knew almost nothing about it. Before opening the armory, the government had conducted another operation.
But Hu Hai is the city lord of the Moon City base.
Moon City is located on the road leading directly to the armory.
The government had to tell him this, because if the armory ever had a major blunder, Moon City would be the first to be sacrificed.
"Why don't you tell me? I'm very curious about what exactly happened back then that caused the government to remain silent for so long."
The flame died down at her fingertips. Miao Yin picked up her cup, took a sip of water, and waited for the other party's reply.
