Moving is undoubtedly a complicated and tedious task.

This is especially true when you have a team of a dozen or so people.

After half a month of meticulous preparation, the Red Begonia Team finally finalized the arrangements for their new home, the team members' job placements, and the final touches at the Sucheng base.

During this time, under duress and enticement, Feng Ming became Hong Tang's "guinea pig" and bravely accepted the second injection of the superpower drug.

Unfortunately, he did not achieve his second awakening of superpowers as he had hoped.

However, Hongtang generously shared the inspiration she gained from the self-destruction of crystal cores by superhumans with him, and instructed him to conduct in-depth research on superhuman weapons such as crystal core guns and crystal core bombs.

Unwilling to waste the superpower potion, Hongtang decided to stop using others as test subjects to verify whether the superpower potion had the effect of allowing people to awaken their superpowers a second time.

Before the extreme heat arrives, Red Tang plans to sell another 50 doses of superpower potions.

This will provide an opportunity for more exceptional individuals to defy fate and perhaps lead their compatriots to break free from the shackles of destiny in the future.

Hongtang took control of Xiao Li, the mastermind behind the black market, raised the price of superpowered drugs, and streamlined the sales channels.

Yes, not the auction price, but the selling price!

The black market's clients are all powerful and wealthy individuals, possessing both demand and purchasing power. Currently, the price of a single superpower potion has soared to 7000 level-one crystal cores, more than double the previous auction price.

However, market demand continues to rise, making it extremely difficult to obtain.

The underground black market claims that this is the last batch of superpowered drugs they have obtained, and the quantity is limited. It is first-come, first-served, and each household is limited to two doses.

Superpower potions are highly sought after due to their high awakening probability and lack of side effects.

They were already difficult to obtain, and now that purchasing channels have been opened up, people with the means are doing everything they can to buy one in order to prepare for any unforeseen needs in the future.

Hongtang was delighted with this and easily earned another sum of crystal cores.

Hu Shuai, Ma Xiaolan, Chi Ye, and others were precisely assigned to various areas of the underground black market like chess pieces, and officially started their jobs in their respective suitable positions.

Because the temperature rise before the extreme heat will cause the ice and snow to melt, and since Ayu Castle is flat, it will be inevitably submerged.

For this reason, Hongtang carefully searched for two temporary residences. One was near the underground black market, in a high-rise building that may have been a grand office building in the past.

Although the building was partially damaged after the apocalypse, its overall structure remained intact, resembling an impregnable castle and an excellent refuge.

Xiao Li had hundreds of people under his command, and with his influence, the office building was quickly brought to order.

If a flood were to occur, the vast area here would be sufficient to accommodate his many subordinates.

Another place to settle down was a mountain on the outskirts of Sucheng, which was also the highest mountain in Sucheng.

If the entire city of Sucheng were to be submerged, this place would become the only surviving high ground, like an oasis of life.

Another place to settle down was a mountain on the outskirts of Sucheng, which resembled a towering giant reaching into the clouds and was also the highest peak in Sucheng.

If the entire city of Sucheng were to be submerged, this place would become the only surviving high ground, shining like a bright pearl in a vast ocean.

However, a Zen temple was built on the mountain, where thirty or forty monks lived.

However, after personally investigating the site, Hongtang was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a peak on the side of the mountain in an excellent position, as if nature had specially prepared it for her.

It can be flattened and then "installed" onto the building like a jigsaw puzzle.

Hongtang already had a perfect plan in mind; she intended to "relocate" Hongyuan and Lanxuan to this new place.

After all, everyone was already used to living in these two buildings, and she just happened to have the magical ability to 'move mountains and move objects'.

Hongtang: Sigh, why didn't we put more empty buildings in the space at the beginning of the apocalypse? She clearly had many opportunities back then, but she didn't think of that. Now, it's hard to find intact buildings.

On the afternoon of the fourth day after the polar night, just as Hongtang moved Hongyuan and Lanxuan into the space, Qiao Chen came to see them off.

"Boss Tang, I didn't expect you to be so decisive, leaving so quickly." Qiao Chen stood outside the Ice Castle, looking up at the dome that reflected a brilliant halo in the sunlight, feeling a mix of emotions and a sense of loss.

This powerful partner, this trustworthy friend, has spared no effort in providing financial and physical support over the past six months, offering endless assistance.

Now that she is about to leave, Qiao Chen is filled with reluctance.

He didn't know if they would ever meet again or if they could continue to work together.

"Yes, the Sucheng base is like a paradise, and the base management is honest and upright. However, I am like a restless bird. I get tired of staying in one place for too long, so I plan to move out and change my environment."

"Will we be able to meet again in the future?"

Qiao Chen couldn't help but ask, as he was hoping to buy some superpower potions or supplies from Hong Tang.

The things she offers, whether in terms of quality or price, are always pleasant and reasonable, like a gentle spring breeze.

"Of course I can. I'm just leaving the Sucheng base, not leaving Sucheng itself."

Hongtang couldn't understand why Qiao Chen had suddenly become so sentimental, as if their relationship was not just a simple transaction of interests, but a deep bond between friends despite their age difference.

Well, we may not be very close, but we're still pretty good business partners.

Hongtang truthfully told Qiao Chen about her two future residences and vowed that he could come to her anytime if anything happened.

She also kindly reminded Qiao Chen again that extreme heat was approaching and floods might be coming, urging him to prepare for the worst.

Qiao Chen was skeptical, but after the polar night, he keenly noticed that the temperature had indeed risen a few degrees, so he began to actively prepare for disaster relief.

"Commander Qiao, after we leave, this ice castle will be yours. I've prepared a gift for you in the yard, remember to check it."

Hongtang winked playfully at Qiao Chen, then gracefully boarded the freight truck and drove away.

The truck was loaded with various supplies, including fuel, coal, and food, which had been exchanged from the base.

She initially contributed mutated potatoes to the base, for which she received a reward of several hundred thousand points. Although she spent some of it later, she still had a considerable surplus.

Since I won't be coming back anyway, I have to spend all these points.

Qiao Chen was filled with curiosity about the "gift" that Hong Tang mentioned and couldn't wait to enter the Ice Castle.

However, when he saw the two deep pits, each several hundred square meters in size, and the two small buildings that had disappeared, he was dumbfounded, both surprised and amused.

He never expected that the usually composed Boss Tang would have such a mischievous side.

Indeed, she's just a child not yet twenty, who should be as lively and radiant as a spring flower.

Hongtang: Thank you. Actually, inside my 17-year-old body lies a mature 27-year-old soul.

Soon, Qiao Chen saw several clusters of white and green plant shoots on the ground near the deep pit.

His heart was pounding with excitement. He excitedly pried open the frozen soil, and a huge mutated sweet potato appeared before his eyes like a treasure.

Immediately, tears of emotion welled up and blurred Qiao Chen's vision like a burst dam.

Such precious food... This is truly a timely help, and it could save so many of our compatriots.

Mr. Tang is so generous!
