314, Global Evolution 16
These days, because the people in the base have focused their attention on the giant mutant pine in the southeast, the soldiers and superpowers who used to closely monitor the surrounding environment have relaxed, and they did not even notice that the frequency of mutant animals' activities in the surrounding area has increased. Therefore, when the tide of monsters came, they panicked, causing the main entrance in the northwest and other secondary entrances to be in danger.
In addition, the people in the base are waiting for Yan Xin to return with his superpower team to successfully destroy the giant mutant pine. Most of them stayed in the southeast of the base, waiting for the first-hand news. After the monsters attacked the city, they hurried to the city gate after hearing the alarm, and it was too late for a while.
"Roar——"
Outside the city wall, there are many ferocious beasts that are untamable, and some animals that have become more and more manic after mutation. In order to resist the attack of these animals with mutated body sizes, after the appearance of the superpowers, the city wall of the base was reinforced several layers. All the power of earth-type superpowers and metal-type superpowers was used to reinforce the city wall to the current thickness of five or six meters.
But in the same way, the power of those mutated animals should not be underestimated. Their sharp claws can leave a thick mark on the city wall. Over time, it is only a matter of time before the city is broken.
When the nest is overturned, there will be no eggs left intact. Even if they are greedy for life and afraid of death, at this time, those who still have a little blood in the base stood up, and the superpowers stood on the high wall to display their superpowers.
Earth-type psychics were responsible for reinforcing the damaged walls and creating roadblocks for the mutant animals. Other attack-type psychics were responsible for long-range attacks to prevent the mutant animals from approaching. Ordinary people also began to learn how to use weapons and firearms after the doomsday, cooperating with soldiers to use bullets and artillery to shoot.
In the face of life and death, there were no women or children. Except for some weak cowards who huddled aside, all those who could walk and move came to support. Although children and some weak women could not go to the battlefield to defend against the enemy, they could help transport ammunition and some wound medicine. Soon, no one had the mind to think about the mutant giant pine.
When Yan Xin arrived with the group of psychics, he saw this scene.
"Captain, let's go and help quickly."
The fire-type psychic who first attacked the mutant giant pine in the team said without thinking.
He was able to take the initiative to stand up and join the team to eliminate the giant pine, which shows that he is a sincere and passionate young man. Now that the base is in danger, of course he asked to go to the battlefield to defend against the enemy without thinking.
"Yeah."
Yan Xiu stood on a high place, looking at the crazy mutant beasts outside the city wall, their sharp claws, and the dried blood and flesh scraps on their fur, and couldn't help feeling nauseous.
There are so many human corpses in the stomachs of these mutant beasts.
"I'll apply for the dispatch of ammunition, you go over and hold them off for a while." Yan Xin never joked about his own life, including this time to eliminate the mutant pine. If it weren't for the greed behind the benefits, he wouldn't put himself in danger.
After saying that, he quickly turned his head and rushed towards the government's temporary office building. As for Liu Lao Da and others who escaped from prison and finally saved their lives, they didn't have the consciousness of sacrificing themselves and contributing to the whole base. They followed Yan Xin away as if they were carrying an important mission.
The teammates who were recruited later looked at such a scene and couldn't tell whether Yan Xin was telling the truth or just found a more glorious excuse for his cowardice.
However, the current situation obviously did not allow them to think about this problem. Under the leadership of the fire-type psychic, the young psychics rushed towards the city gate.
It doesn't matter. Just kill as many mutant beasts as you can. At least it can win more chances for themselves.
"Little General Yan is here."
After Yan Xiu decided to master the dual-type superpowers of thunder and water, he was privately called the little general by the people in the safe zone. Although many ordinary people envied the superpowers, they had to admit that in this environment, powerful superpowers were the biggest pillars to lead them to live well in the doomsday. As a leader among superpowers, Yan Xiu was naturally placed with high hopes.
At this time, everyone forgot the previous unpleasantness. Seeing Yan Xiu appear, he soaked a group of mutant beasts with water rain, and then used the thunder superpower to reverse the electric shock, paralyzed the mutant beasts and let other superpowers finish them off, which immediately relieved the pressure on the edge of the city, and immediately cheered and morale soared.
But obviously, the endless mutant beasts are not so easy to eliminate. They seem to never get tired, and human superpowers are soon facing overdrafts. There is also a sharp reduction in guns and ammunition. Pessimism and despair begin to spread among the crowd.
Many people want to give up, thinking that living in such a doomsday without tomorrow, perhaps death is also a relief.
That fire-type superpower user is really fighting hard. He rushed into the mutant beasts alone, but his superpowers were consumed a lot when he was dealing with the mutant giant pine. Now such a large-scale output will soon face the end of exhaustion of superpowers. At this time, he is still some distance away from the city gate. Obviously, it is far from possible to rush back with the remaining power.
The next second, he seems to be dying at the feet of those crazy mutant beasts.
"Swish swish swish——"
The sound of branches intertwining and leaves shaking sounded after he closed his eyes tightly. The fire-type mutant felt as if something was tied around his waist, and then the whole person slowly rose. He couldn't help but open his eyes. The mutant pine that originally entrenched in the southeast had spread to the surroundings of this city gate at some point. At this moment, he was tied up by a pine tree that grew from the roots of the mother tree underground. One of its branches tied him up, and then slowly sent him to the city gate, and then the branch that tied him slowly loosened.
Such a scene happened to many mutants and soldiers facing crises.
Those who were defending the city gate watched the pine trees save people and then turned their spearheads to those crazy mutant animals. The sharp and poisonous pine needles were densely scattered on the herd. The desperate situation that humans originally faced was quickly resolved after the mutant pine trees appeared.
In just a few hours, the mutant animals were killed and injured innumerable times. They seemed to realize that this pine forest was not easy to mess with. They slowly began to fear and retreat until they completely disappeared from human sight.
"We are saved?"
People who had already prepared for death looked at this scene and doubted their eyes.
"It was the pine tree, the pine tree that saved us?"
The voice was terribly dry, and the face of the person who spoke was flushed. Not long ago, they were still thinking about how to destroy the giant pine tree.
The atmosphere became a little awkward for a while. There was neither the joy of surviving the disaster nor the fear left after the crisis.
An inexplicable feeling of guilt spread among the crowd.
Especially the fire-type mutant who had just been saved by the giant pine. He thought about the scene of himself being repaid with kindness, and he wanted to beat himself to death for attacking the giant pine not long ago.
The crisis subsided. Under everyone's sight, the giant pines that rose from the ground sank into the ground again. Except for leaving deep pits, it seemed that they had never appeared. The scene just now was just their illusion.
"All disappeared."
A speedster ran to the southeast city gate at his fastest speed and took a stroll. The entire pine forest that had just occupied the southeast also disappeared. Just like at the beginning, only the earliest mother tree in the villa area remained.
"I really think I saw a person, the rumored illegitimate son of General Yan. He stood on the crowns of those pine trees, and was carried by those giant pines and left the base."
The words of the speedster made the people even more silent. They thought about what General Yan had said before, that the giant pine was a mutant plant that understood human nature and would not actively attack humans, but they did not believe it at the time. They clamored for General Yan to apologize and for Yan Chu to plead guilty. They also organized people to destroy the benevolent tree that had just saved their entire base.
And Yan Chu, I'm afraid he was the one who just commanded the mutant giant pine to drive away those mutant animals. He is also the benefactor of the base.
Not recognizing gold and jade with eyes, this is probably what they are like.

"What are you going to do? Let us out!"
Yan Xin was so angry that he was almost going crazy. He had planned everything well, but he was captured by the ambushed army just after returning to the temporary office building, before he could notify the senior management to hold a meeting. Liu Lao Da and others were also caught.
Afterwards, he was blindfolded the whole time. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in the cave, with his parents and grandmother who should be staying in the old house of the Yan family.
As for his younger brother and his confidants, they were also in this place.
"Squeak--"
Suddenly, a hole appeared in the cave, and a black mouse with eyes like red beans came out of the hole.
"Squeak--Squeak--"
One after another, the cave was immediately occupied by these black and terrifying mice, and pairs of red pupils reflected their panicked and fearful expressions.
Yan Xin and others wanted to use their supernatural powers, but found that their abilities seemed to be abolished, and they could not use any skills at all.
"Ah——"
Screams came one after another. On the ground, Yan Chu hugged the trunk of the giant pine and put his forehead against it, as if communicating with the giant pine. He didn't care what would happen to Yan Xin and others who were put underground by him and sent to play with Xiong Da's little brothers.
Anyway, their lives would not be in danger. At most, they would be worse off than dead.
The sins they committed should be repaid with their own bodies.
"Aow meow——"
"Woof woof——"
Ju Youqian came to Yan Chu, as if he wanted to comfort him, but accidentally, he was too strong and wanted to rub him, but he knocked him down.
"Ju Youqian."
Yan Chu helplessly wanted to tell Ju Youqian that it was no longer the baby before the mutation, so that it could have a clear understanding of its current size.
"Awoo——"
Before he could sit up, he was pounced by Yan Aotian, who was excited every day, and was pressed to the ground. Then, he was attacked by a tongue.
Surrounded by these funny people, Yan Chu didn't have much energy to be sentimental.
The mission of his original body in this world was to protect his brother Yan Xiu and to investigate the real cause of his mother's death. These two missions have been completed, and the meaning of his existence in this world seems to have ended.
But thinking about the cute little ones around him, Yan Chu felt that maybe he should stay in this world for a little longer.
*****
In the 17th year of the Doomsday Era, humans and mutant plants and animals gradually reached a relatively balanced model.
Among the mutant beasts, a beast king emerged, who was supported by all beasts. The beast king restricted the mutant beasts from attacking humans without reason. Similarly, humans began to explore the planting and breeding methods of the Doomsday, temporarily resolving the food crisis.
Gradually, the major bases began to restore communications, and the bases exchanged intelligence and scientific research results with each other. In the Doomsday, people gradually saw the hope of living again.

"Mom, this pine tree is so big! There is a person on it."
In the Jingshi base, a little girl pointed to the metal pine tree statue cast by the superpowers in the center of the square and said in surprise.
"Well, this pine tree is a great pine tree. At the beginning, it was this pine tree that saved Mom, and then you were born." The determined woman took her daughter's hand and introduced her to this great mutant pine with a smile.
"The carving on the tree is the owner recognized by this pine tree, and he is also a great man."
The illegitimate son of General Yan in the legend left after the base crisis, and the giant pine tree that was supposed to be rooted in the villa area also disappeared.
Many people speculated that the giant pine tree with powerful abilities grew legs and ran away with its owner. As for where they went, no one knew.
It was only later that people began to gradually adapt to the doomsday changes and the communications of various bases began to recover. From the communication with those bases, they gradually realized that the man and the pine tree had never disappeared.
The man named Yan Chu wandered around the world of China with his cat, his dog, his mouse and his pine tree, saving many people and many mutant animals worth saving. Wherever he went, he would leave a legend belonging to him.
No one knew where he would go next, but one thing was certain, as long as the other party appeared, it would become very lively.
"Wow!"
The little girl was still very young, just listening to her mother's story, she also felt that he must be a very powerful person.
More than ten years have passed. Yan Xiu inherited the position of the base leader, married and had children, and had his own family, but he was still used to it. He came to the statue every day to look at it and recall the bits and pieces of his brother.
He never thought that after that day, his brother left without saying goodbye, and the old lady of the Yan family and Yan Guoqing's family also disappeared.
After knowing the truth at the time, Yan Xiu didn't care about those people calling him grandma and second uncle.
So many years have passed, and I don't know what happened to my brother, but every time I hear rumors about my brother in the market, I can't help but feel proud and proud.
"Brother!"
Just when Yan Xiu was still immersed in the past, a familiar and strange call suddenly came from behind him.
Yan Xiu stiffened his body and slowly turned around.
A tall and thin young man stood behind him. More than ten years have passed. The other party's appearance is no different from what he remembered, but he is darker, thinner, and has stubble. He looks a lot more casual and free.
"You kid, you're willing to come back."
Yan Xiu ran forward and punched him twice on the back, his eyes gradually turned red.
Not long after his brother left, his father died. He was in the late stage of lung cancer. This is true.
Occasionally, he would be afraid that when he died, he would not be able to see his brother for the last time.
"Brother, it hurts."
Yan Chu smiled, showing his big white teeth, "It's been very hard for me to be the beast king for so many years. It's rare for me to skip work and go home. You won't beat me to death, will you?"
Thinking of the increasing number of big and small treasures at home, each of them has the bad habit of competing for favor and beauty, Yan Chu felt that he also needed to skip work and take a rest.
"It's good to be back."
Hearing the word beast king, the expression on Yan Xiu's face paused. He always felt that he seemed to know a shocking secret, but who cared, anyway, the one in front of him was his brother, and now his brother was home.
"Look at Dad, we two brothers still have a lot to say."
Holding his brother tightly, Yan Xiu patted his back heavily, and a heart that had been lifted up finally let go.
"I haven't seen my sister-in-law yet!"
"What does my nephew look like?"
"Aunt Lin, are you okay?"
The voices were getting farther and farther away, and two long shadows disappeared in front of the bronze statue standing tall in the square.
