Yu Miaomiao was betting on this very limit. She thought that as long as she could push Bai Meiyue to her limit, the woman would lose her strength to fight. When that happens, she would send the ability users to rescue Bai Meiyue and her child. That way, she would be able to control the two of them much better than she would have by cornering them.
And even if by some miracle, Bai Meiyue succeeded in holding on until Lei Qian arrived, then it was no loss in Yu Miaomiao’s eyes. The two of them could never escape the base in her eyes; thus, she was not worried about their reactions, even if they were to get angry, they would never dare to go outside the base. The conditions outside were simply inhuman.
Thus, she believed that Bai Meiyue was under her control and nothing would change this.
So, in her eyes, even if Bai Meiyue somehow managed to continue fending off the flesh-eating bugs, she would be helping her by eradicating the danger. And even if Lei Qian arrived, he would only add to the already existing force. She had no worries or care about the people who would die in this pull-and-push game of hers. Compared to her, Bai Meiyue was much better; at least she was trying to save the lives of the soldiers who were attacked by the mutated bugs.
When Lu Jingguo thought about Yu Miaomiao’s actions and looked at Bai Meiyue, who was willing to save the lives of even her enemies, he couldn’t help but be disgusted.
Did Yu Miaomiao even think about how they were going to survive if they didn’t control these mutated bugs when their population was still manageable? What if their numbers increased when they were lying back and doing nothing? He had researched a little about these mutated species, and Lu Jingguo knew very well that these species reproduced really fast.
Which meant that if they didn’t control these mutated bugs quickly, they would soon be drowned in a wave of them.
Lu Jingguo snorted coldly. He really couldn’t understand how Yu Miaomiao, who called herself a researcher, couldn’t think of something so simple. Or maybe she did, but she didn’t care because she had more than four hundred ability users under her command. The number was actually five hundred, but after today’s incident, the number had reduced to five hundred.
Even though their hearts were riddled with grief, anger and a sense of loss, there was nothing they could do at the moment. Just wait; once they bring the rest of the ability users by their side, they will definitely avenge those who have lost their lives. He would no longer stay in this rotten base, but instead, he would move to another place with the rest of the ability users and live a good life.
"I asked you to find the family members of the ability users," said Bai Feng. He stared at the man who had the telescopic abilities and asked him, "Did you find them? Without them, we will never be able to make the rest of the ability users give up on Yu Miaomiao."
