Doomsday: I can see the health bar, kill monsters and drop treasure.

Chapter 666 New Red Maple Base

"Mr. Wang is here..."

Han Youlin turned his back to Wang Tao and did not turn his head. His voice was very hoarse, like the friction of glass.

"Commander Han, you..."

Wang Tao didn't know what to say for a moment.

The aura of Han Youlin...is no longer a human being, but more like a plant! If Wang Tao hadn't seen that his health bar was still normal green, instead of the non-human red, he would have thought that he was a mutant plant. But Han Youlin's attributes were still human, which was very strange.

Of course, the most shocking thing is his terrifying look. Even though Wang Tao had been warned by Tu Lizhen, he was still shocked when he saw it.

"For the Red Maple Base, I can only do this..."

Han Youlin's tone was flat and emotionless, like a hoarse robot.

As he spoke, Han Youlin opened his eyes. There were no pupils in his eyes, only the whites of his eyes glowing green, and some black symbols could be seen flashing faintly on the whites of his eyes.

"You control the entire army by yourself?"

Wang Tao suddenly asked.

Han Youlin's appearance reminded Wang Tao of a network terminal. The vines on its head were "network cables"! He seemed to be able to control other mutant plants and give orders to other soldiers through these cables!

Although there was no conclusive evidence, Wang Tao felt that his guess was almost correct.

Han Youlin seemed to understand Wang Tao's idea, and he explained in a calm tone:
"It seems you have guessed it. Yes, I am the commander of the entire army. I can control every mutant plant. I can give orders to the captains of each team and receive their information..."

After Han Youlin's explanation, Wang Tao finally understood what was going on.

Previously, the Red Maple Base controlled mutant plants by using a special mutant plant. This mutant plant can transmit brain wave signals. One end is inserted into the human brain, and the other end can release signals, which can wirelessly control mutant plants. However, this ability has a great limitation, that is, these special mutant plants cannot be transplanted, and the range can only cover the Red Maple Base, not outside.

And now, Han Youlin has solved this problem - he directly integrated that special plant!
Although that special plant would die if transplanted, this defect disappeared after merging with Han Youlin - as long as Han Youlin did not die, this special plant would never die.

The number of these special plants was not large, but there were at least hundreds of them, spread throughout the Red Maple Base. Han Youlin, who had integrated these special plants, simply went all out and went all out - he directly integrated all the special plants!

Although the process was extremely difficult and he almost didn't make it, the result was good.

The integration of so many special plants has made Han Youlin's current abilities extremely exaggerated - he can control all the current mutated plants by himself!

If combined with these mutated mushrooms that can transmit signals, his control range will be able to cover these 800,000 survivors!
All those soldiers who had tubes inserted into their heads and were specifically responsible for controlling the mutated plants can be laid off.

However, if Han Youlin was allowed to control everything for a long time, it would be a great burden for him, so he did not do so. Instead, he regarded himself as a commander and terminal, and he only needed to be responsible for command. Those mutant plants were still controlled by the previous control soldiers, and he could directly transmit the orders to the brains of these soldiers with brain tubes, which was very convenient.

This is also the reason why those mutated plants were able to leave the Red Maple Base and the 800,000 people evacuated so quickly.

Han Youlin was like having a God's perspective. Every mutant plant under their control could share his vision with Han Youlin, and he could also communicate directly with those soldiers... In addition, after he merged with the special plants, his brain became extremely flexible, like a human brain computer, able to calculate the best solution in a short time. Therefore, there were almost no accidents in this evacuation operation, and it was completed quickly and smoothly.

Of course, all this came at a price. The price he paid was a similar level of petrification as Tu Lizhen and others, but more severe.

Tu Lizhen's vegetative transformation only spread from her palms to her forearms, and when Han Youlin merged, only some special plants grew on his hair. These special plants coexisted with the hair, and other than that there were not many changes.

But now... his head has become very big, all his hair has fallen off, his skin is very dark, many parts of his body have become woody, even his eyes are almost turning into wood. At this moment, his whole body exudes a strong plant scent. If other people who don't understand see him, they will probably kill him on the spot...

"Ugh……"

Wang Tao sighed.

Han Youlin was right to do this for the entire Red Maple Base. But Wang Tao was a little emotional when he saw Han Youlin before and suddenly he became like a ghost.

This thing is not a zombie virus. Even if Wang Tao has a lot of medicines, he cannot consume it.

However, Han Youlin was obviously much more optimistic than Wang Tao thought.

"I'm in a pretty good state now. With me here, I can try my best to ensure that they arrive at the new base smoothly. Even if I die by then, it will be worth it... and I don't think I will die..."

Han Youlin struggled to open his mouth, revealing a terrifying smile. His cheeks had long been wooden, and although he still looked human, he was actually stiff, and it was very difficult for him to open his mouth and speak.

Wang Tao was reluctant to disturb him, but Han Youlin took the initiative to speak:
"In fact, few people dare to come over to me in my current state. It's good that Mr. Wang can chat with me. If you have anything else you want to know, feel free to ask. I will answer all your questions. Don't worry that I won't be able to bear it. Although I don't look normal, I'm actually fine. I can feel that I'm still a long way from being completely petrified..."

Since Han Youlin said so, Wang Tao was not polite. He and Qu Shilin and others asked Han Youlin various questions. Qu Shilin even used his mental power to detect Han Youlin's brain...

……

The journey to the new base was not smooth. Although there were no seventh-order destructive monsters, there were many zombies on the road and groups of zombies were often encountered. Sixth-order lord zombies were common, and sixth-order disaster zombies were also occasionally encountered.

Facing these zombies, Han Youlin micro-managed the entire team and was able to deal with most of the zombies, except for the disaster-level zombies. No matter how good he was at operation, there was a limit to the mutant plants and troops he could control. If the level was not high enough, he would die if he encountered a disaster awakening.

Although Tu Lizhen and the others had improved their combat effectiveness, they were somewhat restrained because they were afraid of petrification too quickly. At this time, it was time for Wang Tao and the others to take action. No disaster-level zombie could survive for more than a minute in front of Wang Tao and his group. Even the faster ones could be killed in a few seconds.

This made Tu Lizhen and the others very envious. They took such a big risk, became half-human and half-ghost, and finally improved their strength. But in the end, they were still not as strong as Wang Tao and the others... People really can't be compared.

Han Youlin, who saw all this, sighed in his heart. Although the population of Changhe Base was similar to that of Hongfeng Base, the gap in strength was still too big.

"I hope we can get through this crisis smoothly. It's a pity that we can't go to Changhe Base..."

He was willing to go to the Changhe Base and take all the survivors with him, and the other survivors would have no objection. As long as they could be safe, they would flock to it, not to mention being a "Phoenix Tail", even if it was a job of "007" every day.

But unfortunately, the distance between the two places is too far. If we go to Changhe Base at the cost of losing more than ten times the population, it will not be worth it.

He decided to take a look at the new base and if there were no problems, he would settle there.

In addition to having to deal with zombies on the road, high temperatures are also a big problem when transferring so many people at once.

Wang Tao and others help deal with the powerful zombies, but there is no good way to deal with the high temperature.

Although the mutant plants that had awakened the ability of [Frost Cold] at the Red Maple Base were still alive, their effects were limited. At most, they could keep the temperature nearby at around 40 degrees.

If they were living in the Red Maple Base, they could survive the 40-degree heat, but it was really unbearable to travel while enduring the 40-degree heat. Many survivors had heat stroke and could only rely on the healing psychics to keep them alive. If they didn't rest, they might not be able to bear it.

Just as we saw a large number of survivors about to fall, we finally reached our destination after three days of walking.

"Is this right here..."

Wang Tao let the golden eagle fly into the valley in front of him.

This valley is the new base chosen by Han Youlin.

The terrain here is somewhat similar to the previous Red Maple Base, with a piece of open space surrounded by several mountains. But there are not many trees here, the mountains are bare, it looks very desolate, and it doesn't seem suitable for a base.

But after entering the valley, I found that there was a deep pool in the middle of the valley - no, it seemed to be... a crack where sea water flowed back?
Wang Tao and others were a little surprised.

"This seems to be a crack. I can smell the scent of sea water... but this crack is not as big as the previous ones... and it is not completely split. There is just a gap in the valley..."

If there is water, even seawater, it is enough for the survivors of the entire Red Maple Base to live here. Moreover, the seawater in the cracks is not affected by high temperatures and will not evaporate, so there is no need to worry about not having enough water.

But there is a problem - there are sea beasts in the sea water. If there are sea beasts here, it will be troublesome for them to get water. However, they have known about the sea beasts in the cracks for a long time. Since Han Youlin chose this place as the new base, there should be a solution.

Wang Tao and his companions did not study it too much. They let the golden eagle fly around the valley several times. After making sure there was no danger, the main force arrived.

Due to the seawater in the cracks, the temperature in the valley was much lower than outside, and the survivors felt much cooler as soon as they came in. Especially when they saw the deep pool here, they cried with joy.

However, the mutated plants and soldiers blocked them and would not let them pass, saying that the commander had other orders and asked them to follow them.

Naturally, the survivors dared not disobey the commander's orders. They could only resist the urge to take a bath in the water and follow the rules obediently.

Wang Tao came to the red mushroom and asked Han Youlin how to deal with the crack.

A smile appeared on Han Youlin's stiff face:
"I sent people here to test it before, and there are no sea beasts in this crack. But sea beasts can swim, and the fact that there are no sea beasts now does not mean that there will be no sea beasts in the future, so we still cannot be careless... I have also conducted experiments in another crack before, and I found that those sea beasts are interested in humans and mutant animals. They have no interest in zombies or mutant plants. So I plan to fence off this crack, and then use the mutant plants we control to get water..."

"Huh? Can we use mutant plants to get water?"

Wang Tao and Qu Shilin looked at each other, and there was a gleam in their eyes.

They didn't expect that the mutated plants would not be attacked by sea beasts, mainly because they had no way to control the mutated plants and had never done any experiments in this regard.

But if water can really be obtained safely, Wang Tao believes that with the efforts of the research institute, not to mention controlling the mutated plants like Han Youlin, but at least they can come up with some alternative solutions to solve the water problem of the Changhe Base!
Under the command of Han Youlin, the 800,000 survivors entered the valley in an orderly manner and began to set up camp at the planned locations.

At the same time, a large number of soldiers began to use a special method to stick some dead mutant plants outside the crack, slowly forming a cover that covered the entire crack, leaving only a large gate for entry and exit. There were a large number of soldiers guarding outside, and no humans were allowed to enter.

"Tsk, tsk, really good..."

Seeing that the controlled mutant plants had started to go in to get water one after another without any accidents, Wang Tao nodded immediately.

There was a gleam in Qu Shilin's eyes. She had already thought of several plans that she could implement when she returned!

At night, the people at the Red Maple Base were temporarily settled. After Wang Tao made sure there was no problem, he prepared to leave.

"I have nothing to thank you for. I can only say that if you need anything in the future, just let me know, even if it costs me my life." Han Youlin said, and pulled a vine from his head and gave it to Wang Tao. "I'll give this to you. After it leaves me, it may die in a few hours, but you may be able to find something within these few hours. If you need anything, you can come to me. These things on my head can regenerate..."

"Okay, let's go then."

Wang Tao took the still wriggling piece of vine and left the new red maple base on a golden eagle.
