Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable-Chapter 151: The Apocalypse - I Am Not the Holy Mother 58

At the back of the line of horses, there was a man riding a tall horse, holding a whip. The man continually shouted slogans, occasionally snapping the whip, yet never really letting it fall on the horses’ backs. Evidently, he was commanding these mutated horses.

Behind the man commanding the mutated horses was a group of soldiers in camouflage uniforms. When Lin Shuangshuang saw these people in camouflage, she breathed a sigh of relief because they were familiar faces. These soldiers in camouflage were none other than Song Yuhang and his team, whom they had parted with just two months ago.

When Lin Shuangshuang saw Song Yuhang and the others, Song Yuhang also spotted Shuangshuang’s group. Upon this sudden reunion, both sides were pleasantly surprised. Since they were certain there were no enemies, there was no need for heightened vigilance.

Lin Shuangshuang introduced Song Yuhang and his team to her and Mi Lu’s parents. Both families had heard about them from their children, so they already had some impression, making it quite easy to get along.

Since they had already met Song Yuhang, Lin Shuangshuang was not in a hurry to continue the journey. The two sides chatted a bit and decided to rest for a night together, then return to the base the next day.

In casual conversation, everyone learned that Song Yuhang and his team were out because Dr. Ma Yuan had discovered an edible mutated plant that could replace rice. The purpose of their leaving the base was to gather food.

Unlike animals and insects, after the world changed, plants, which were once completely subdued by humans, mutated most drastically and evolved in various unpredictable directions. Many had developed abilities to attack or to move around land freely.

Those that couldn’t move also evolved bizarre abilities, such as trees with the power of thunder and lightning that could electrocute anyone who touched them, with enough power to act as generators. There were also plants that grew thorns to shoot as weapons, while crops humans used to eat became completely unrecognizable due to mutation.

Yes, the great evolution of the world destroyed everything familiar to humans. People had to fully adapt to this new world and rediscover edible mutated plants.

This process was long and arduous. In the previous life, before Lin Shuangshuang died, the number of edible mutated plants discovered by humans did not exceed ten types. But unexpectedly in this life, Ma Yuan had quickly found an edible mutated plant, making Lin Shuangshuang somewhat narcissistically wonder if it was because of her own influence.

Lin Shuangshuang’s thinking was not without basis because, in her previous life, she had not left school early, thus not encountering Song Yuhang and his team who were on a mission to meet Ma Yuan.

Considering this life’s encounter between Lin Shuangshuang and Song Yuhang’s group, where these people were chased to the ends of the earth by a mutated pig, subsequent events only occurred because of meeting Lin Shuangshuang. In the previous life, without encountering Lin Shuangshuang, could they have died there with the national treasure-level Dr. Ma Yuan?!

Lin Shuangshuang only thought about it for a moment. Regardless of the truth, it did not matter; all she knew was that in this life, the control power of the national government and military was very strong, so those private bases which emerged like bamboo shoots after the rain in the previous life would no longer have a chance to rise.

The person herding the mutated horses used to run a horse ranch, obsessed with horses, mingling with them every day, and could hardly live differently except for eating different food.

After the world’s mutation, these horses mutated. Because they were especially fond of this person, they didn’t leave him after evolving. Moreover, the mutated horses still had strong combat power, and this person relied on them to protect his family and friends, surviving together and later joining Song Yuhang’s base.

This time, as Song Yuhang went out to find food and couldn’t drive, this person herded his mutated horses to accompany Song Yuhang on the mission. His task was to command the horses to help Song Yuhang’s group carry the food back.

The first day’s rest was excellent, and the following morning, the group followed Song Yuhang to the base. After arriving at the base, Lin Shuangshuang and her group learned that Song Yuhang’s identity there was quite remarkable; he was actually the youngest son of the base leader. It was indeed a situation where leaning on a tree provides good shade.

Song Yuhang was very considerate and had already prepared accommodations for Lin Shuangshuang’s group—a small, separate courtyard with newly built high-rise buildings featuring high and wide doors ensuring that even large mutated pets could enter, although the door was still not enough for Red Jade’s size to fit through.

After settling down, everyone needed to carefully plan their future. Zhang Ling had once carefully analyzed their future pathways, essentially highlighting two choices: establishing their own group or relying on the military that controlled the base.

Now in various bases, there were many privately formed teams, ranging from just a few members to over a hundred. These teams took on officially issued missions, mainly for rescuing trapped people, finding edible mutated plants, and hunting mutant insects and animals.

If one wants to establish themselves in the base, forming a team is a necessity. The question remains whether the team would be independent, only answering to themselves, or appear independent while actually relying on the military and mainly taking military-assigned official tasks.

According to Zhang Ling’s suggestion, they should rely on the military of the base since they had Song Yuhang’s background. Furthermore, Song Yuhang treated them warmly. In the eyes of other forces at the base, they were already considered military people, so it was better to be straightforward and outright join the military.

The team’s formation was swift, with only the naming process being somewhat difficult. After much debate, Lin Shuangshuang herself made the final decision, naming it "Dawn." Dawn represents the sunlight breaking through darkness. The team members wore badges featuring a red spider with a yellow and white cat lying on top.

With Dawn established, everyone began to take on missions and cultivate. Amidst the cycle of taking on missions and cultivation, everyone was motivated to become stronger, ever stronger!

Since they were backed by the military, most of Lin Shuangshuang’s team’s tasks were military-issued, mainly rescuing trapped personnel and searching for edible mutated plants.

Due to the strong combat abilities of Lin Shuangshuang’s team, especially with a more ferocious combatant like the mutated spider Red Jade, their task completion rate was a hundred percent. They never failed a mission, and so their reputation grew within the base, causing those with petty schemes to withdraw their sinister actions automatically.

Lin Shuangshuang was aware of outsiders’ malice and scheming intentions, intentionally showcasing her team’s strength, which allowed them some peace.

Now Lin Shuangshuang had a new worry because the impending second great evolution was approaching, another severe test for humanity.
