Rebirth before Apocalypse: My Whole Family are Bigshots!

The two of them walked directly on the snow, and the frost beneath their feet was visibly forming.

They moved a great distance with a single step.

One had Ice Ability and the other Wind Ability.

They stood directly opposite the Superpower Users, their heads slightly raised, their expressions seemingly gentle.

Arrogant yet not easily perceived as arrogant.

Logically, having ”saved” so many Superpower Users, someone should have come up to talk to them.

At the very least, they should have said thank you.

However, the Superpower Users didn’t say thank you; instead, they stared straight at them, without any expression on their faces.

Actually, they wanted to grumble.

But the energy fluctuations from the two of them were too intense.

Everyone present was a Superpower User and could sense the power of these two.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward.

”You’re from Yunhua Safety Base, right? Who’s in charge here?”

A somewhat younger young man lightly coughed, breaking the standstill of everyone just staring at each other.

He felt that if he didn’t speak, no one else would bother with them.

Secretary Fang always appeared cultured and polite, with a slight smile on his face.

Clearly, he was pretending to be an approachable leader.

”I am the Base Commander of the Safety Base, and you are...”

At this point, the Base Commander pulled his only arm out of the down jacket pocket, a polite smile on his face.

If it weren’t for the fact that he couldn’t defeat these two, he would have long since unleashed a torrent of curses.

Everyone here was training well and about to return loaded with goods; how come two blockheads suddenly came to mess things up?

The surface of the ox was roasted to charcoal by the Fire Ability, wasting an unknown amount of meat!

Heartache!

Resources were already so scarce, how could they meet people who seemed so dim-witted!

”Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Li Bingcheng, you can just call me Xiao Li. This is our Human Survivor Alliance’s Chief Captain, Captain Fang. Thanks to our Captain Fang, not only did he help you deal with zombies and wild cattle, but he also exterminated the mutant zombie animals not far away, so you are very safe now!”

Xiao Li politely extended his right hand, a faint smile on his face.

The Base Commander also extended his right hand for a handshake, his gaze pausing momentarily on the badge in front of the so-called Captain Fang.

What was written on it was Secretary, not Chief Captain.

He recognized the Chief Captain; he had seen him before, it was Zhang Gong.

As for the assistance claim made by Xiao Li, the Base Commander considered it as nothing but a fart.

If they hadn’t shown up, everyone would have obtained a dozen ”peaceful” mutant oxen.

As for the zombie animals they claimed to have dealt with, the Base Commander didn’t see them, so he wasn’t grateful.

”You’re Deputy Captain Leng, right? Your strength is indeed outstanding among the Superpower Users here, truly deserving of being a Base Commander.”

Fang Jin nodded slightly, his gaze lingering for a moment on the Base Commander’s arm.

”But, your arm...”

For a Superpower User losing an arm doesn’t have a particularly significant impact, but in combat, they’ll still be inferior compared to before.

Fang Jin seemed to be very concerned about the Base Commander’s missing arm, though his concern wasn’t from caring, but worry about the Base Commander’s weakened strength.

”Oh, it’s nothing, I’ve been losing weight recently, and after losing an arm, I found the effect to be quite good!”

The Base Commander shrugged indifferently.

Fang Jin: ...

Considering what the Base Commander had been through, merely surviving was already quite good, an arm wouldn’t affect much.

The Base Commander never really cared about such matters.

Hearing the Base Commander’s casual tone, Fang Jin didn’t further discuss the topic of the arm and instead said seriously,

”When shall we return to the base? I have some matters to discuss with the Base Commander.”

”We can go back now!”

The Base Commander gestured, indicating for the two to sit on the truck.

The two did not hesitate and headed directly towards the truck.

As they walked, their backs were straight, moving briskly.

The Superpower Users secretly cursed these two as brainless, yet they didn’t waste any beef; even though the surface was charred, they still loaded all the oxen onto the truck to bring back.

No words were exchanged during the journey.

After returning to the Safety Base, the Base Commander had Song Hongfei help with splitting the beef for the Superpower Users, while the rest was sent to the base canteen to be distributed with porridge to the old, weak, and disabled.

The Base Commander then took the two of them to his office.

Leng Yebai and Bai Xiqin also followed along.

Upon reaching the office, before the Base Commander even closed the door, Fang Jin seated himself in the Base Commander’s chair, uninvited.

He placed his hand on the desk, displaying a commanding posture.

”Xiao Leng, who are these two?”

Fang Jin’s gaze fell on Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai, nodding slightly to them.

If it weren’t for the powerful Superpower aura emanating from Leng Yebai and Bai Xiqin, Fang Jin would have thought the Base Commander was incompetent.

Discussing important matters generally shouldn’t involve unnecessary individuals.

”This is my son and daughter-in-law; they’re part of our own, and discussing safety base matters with them is no different.”

The Base Commander’s goodwill vanished in an instant, seeing Fang Jin’s expression.

Zhang Gong, Captain Zhang’s strength was incredibly formidable, and his attitude was much better, completely unlike this person in front of him.

Poser!

”Since they’re part of our own, and manage the safety base, they should also stay here. But before discussing anything, I must first declare, every word you hear from now on must be kept secret, and the matters discussed must not be disclosed to others, otherwise, leaking confidential information would lead to consequences...”

Fang Jin’s voice turned much more severe, an overwhelming surge of energy emanated from him.

Bai Xiqin felt a powerful energy affecting her.

It didn’t harm her, yet the aura and power were so overwhelming that it made her heart pound with anxiety.

This was a fear lower-ranked Superpower Users felt toward high-ranked ones.

This feeling was quite unpleasant, as if she were a piece of meat on a chopping block.

”What do you mean by this, Secretary Fang?”

The Base Commander’s eyes narrowed, his expression turning cold.

He comes into his safety base and bullies his son and daughter-in-law right in front of him?

How brazen!

As soon as the Base Commander mentioned Secretary Fang, Fang Jin’s face froze, and the momentum directed at the group withdrew sharply.

”This is Captain Fang, Base Commander Leng, please don’t talk nonsense.” Xiao Li quickly chimed in, ”Base Commander Leng, what we are about to discuss relates to the future of human survivors. We ask that you treat this matter seriously and ensure its confidentiality, not revealing it to anyone.”

”If it’s about the future of human survivors, we naturally wouldn’t speak recklessly. However, the broadcast mentioned that the Chief Captain of the Human Survivor Alliance is Captain Zhang Gong.”

The Base Commander glanced at Fang Jin’s chest badge and snorted coldly.

Fang Jin instinctively touched his badge, wishing he could rip it off and throw it away.

Yet it represented his identity, and without it, he’d have no way to communicate with other deputy captains.

Though... the Base Commander didn’t even know the Human Survivor Alliance had such badge identifiers.

But Fang Jin especially valued it.

”Enough, this matter will eventually be made public. As Base Commander Leng is curious, I’ll say it first.”

Xiao Li looked back at Fang Jin’s expression, then whispered,

”Captain Zhang Gong has already perished in the South Sea; the current captain of the Human Survivor Alliance is Captain Fang. Due to potential negative impact, this hasn’t been disclosed to everyone. We ask all of you to maintain confidentiality!”
