Aftermath

Amelia looled at the dead soldiers outside without any expression on her face. She turned to he bodyguard and asked "What do you think? What could be improved from their strategy?" She looled at him with bright eyes.

Blake's first thought was she is testing him but seeing her bright and expectant eyes made him swallow the sarcastic words he wanted to say. He opened his mouth and explained the shortcomings of the Jiangkang base army as well as the missed opportunities in this battle.

In the end Amelia had decided to use her smart bracelet to write it all down and file it away. She had an admiring expression as she looked at Blake. Seeing her looking at him like this, he felt shy in his heart but he didn't show it on his face.

"This is incredible. Who exactly are you?" Amelia smacked her lips in happiness to have such a capable aid beside her. "Never mind, I was excited just now."

The day went by, the cameras recorded all the movements of the joint army as they left and went on the paths leading to their bases each. The losses were a lot and no one is in the move to care about counting them.

The bosses are all depressed. Their powers haven't come back yet, not even their bodyguards were spared in the plot. As they made their way home they each hated the Qin family for misleading them and sending them to their deaths.

It obvious now that the Qin family is trying to deal with the Jiangkang base and they were being used as laymen.

.....

In the Qin family

Lu Feng has finally changed his name to Qin Feng and the relationship between him and his wife has eased up a lot in the past few months as the baby will be born soon. He doesn't want his child to be born in a place without peace.

Even though he still longs for Amelia in his heart, he doesn't show it anymore. Not to mention she is the one who didn't contact him even though he gave her a phone. If she came now, he can still keep her as well, anyways he is a king now. 

However, her little fruit has already rotted and he had to throw it away. That little fruit would emit a strange fragrance whenever he was getting out of control and he would instantly come down. He had been a troubled man all these years and because of a childhood trauma, he has a condition that makes him get out of control.

When this happens he will become as strong as a bear and get angrier and angrier to the point that even his grandfather wouldn't dare come close to him. Last time he was with Amelia he had started to have thoughts that made him almost lose his mind again but the plant inside her body had released a fragrance that instantly calmed him down.

A while later, a small pink fruit came out of her cheek but he took it away and everytime we felt like his grandfather or his wife were about to drive him crazy he would sniff it and instantly come back to his senses.

Qin Feng is worried that he might hurt his pregnant wife so he has been trying not to make her feel dissatisfied and in turn not anger himself. It has been working so far but the problem is the old man and his insistence on meddling.

He is watching the video sent to him by a spy and watching how the Jiangkang base deals with enemies made his heart turn cold. He has seen many bloody scenes but what he is watching takes the cake. What sort of person is the Jiangkang base leader? How can supernatural power users under her be so powerful at this time?

One has to know that it hasn't even been two years since the start of the apocalypse yet those people have already reach such hights? The Jiangkang base leader obviously has a secret and he will find it so that he can use it on his own people. Just the thought of his own army having immense power before even putting on the armor makes him very excited.

This Jiangkang base leader is keeping such a good thing all to themselves while the country is under attack and they are watching coldly without extending a helping hand. He is suddenly looking forward to the ceremony so that he will catch this leader and force out all her secrets himself.

He will then get someone completely under his control to be a vassal for him in the Jiangkang base.

Qin Feng has reched the foundation establishment realm in his cultivation thanks to the abundance of resources he obtained after confiscating many traditional herb plants businesses and collecting all sort of resources using the power of the Qin family. He doesn't believe someone with only a mortal's power can go against a cultivator like him.

Amelia doesnt know that the so called king of the great Xia is eyeing her things and want to have them all for himself. She is looking at the report from the battlefield, it has been two days since the Jiangkang base obtained victory from the battle. Her base has lost a few more people than she had initially anticipated.

She curled her lips into a disdainful smile, it seems her troupes are in need of training. The battlefield has been cleaned up and the bodies have been burned. Keeping the dead bodies will only make more zombies in the future.

The dead were placed in a large pire and a funeral was held for them. Amelia looked at the people who seem sad, when the soldiers signed the contract, all sorts of benefits were given to them including pension and family allowances in case of death.

"Today we bury the heroes who saw to it that our home is protected and our way if life is preserved. They gave their lives so that we can keep living. We won that war, but at the cost of good men and women whose lives we treasure but now they are gone and no amount of words can bring them back. They may have left us, but they will always be our heroes.

That is why our city will officially have the wall of heroes. If you give your life to protect this place that we have built with our own hands together, you will forever be one of our ancestors and every year, we will gather and pray for your spirit.

The change took everything from us, but we have endured and built a home here. We will never give our home to them. We will fight! Together!" Amelia shouted and her heroic posture made everyone straighten their back and shout back. With one voice, the same word was shouted by everyone in the funeral and soon, everyone began chanting it like a mantra.

"TOGETHER!"

"TOGETHER!"

"TOGETHER!"

She went and lit the fire herself. Wearing dark colors to show her respect for the dead, she bowed to the burning corpses and left with her bodyguard after watching for a while.

The next three days were given as a holiday and all the shops were closed, everyone was given leave to rest. Those with family members who died were given more time and then they had to go to chose the several insurance options the base had offered to their fallen soldiers.

Amelia walked into her home followed closely by Blake. She took off her heavy coat and went to sleep. Blake looked at her lonely back with a thoughtful expression. This person is very interesting, she knows to lead, to take a step back and when to inspire.

Her performance was very good just now, she made the people who died turn into heroes who gave their lives to protect everyone who lives in the base including her. She showed enough respect to them without looking pretentious.

The confidence in her eyes makes people subconsciously believe that she knows what she is doing. Everyone would subconsciously believe in her ability forgetting that she is 17 years old.

This makes him remember his time when many of his men would die one after another at the hands of the enemy and as a leader he had to make a speech of condolence. It is an impossible situation because no words can comfort a grieving person who lost some they truly cared for.

Amelia felt like she will breakthrough soon so she went into her space to prepare for a breakthrough this time. She will finally be at the level of qi refining after this body refinement realm.

She will catch up to her dear sister. Thinking of which, she wonders if elder sister has regrown her hand? It would be pitiful to have a heroine without her dominant hand no?

Amelia went into space to proceed with a breakthrough. Her space has upgraded it itself a few times even the natural space water is now middle level spirit spring.

Amelia doesn't know if it is thanks to the spirit stone mine or something else but more is always better than less..at least in this case. Breaking through inside her space is definitely a good idea since it is a place full of clean superior spiritual energy.

.......North Province...

"What a bunch of losers!" Qing Xuan stood up suddenly and swept all the things on his desk to the floor breaking a tea set full of hot tea that Yeming had just given to him.

Watching the video of the joint army getting slaughtered outside Jiangkang base he felt like all his careful considerations were wasted on thes people. How can bulldozing your way inside a small base be that difficult?

He looked at the various base leaders with unfriendly eyes, without anyone noticing, his eyes turned red with black pupils for a while before returning to normal. He wished he could tell these people to go back and attack again. Otherwise he won't get what he wants.

He opens a desk with Amelia's file inside and threw it at his assistant. "Update it according to the new information." His head is a mess, the body is getting weaker and weaker if he doesn't find a solution soon, he will really drop dead forever this time.

At this thought, he panicked and rushed to his room. He took a shower and is about to get in bed when he saw something inside. He pulled open the clean sheets and saw Yeming lying there naked as the day she was born.

Her long black hair scattered on his pillow like shiny silk threads. Her skin looks soft to the touch, this woman is one of the people he recruited back before the apocalypse started and brought her back here into one of his bases. She has never suffered from the apocalypse even for a day.

"Get out!" He shouts his head throbbing from a massive headache. That shout just now made his entire body feel weak.

"Sir, at least let me hold you to sleep. It's....so cold, I am worried about your unusually low temperature." She said respectfully while getting up. As she stood up, he can see her traces on the bed.

His head throbbed even more and he went to open the door but he felt his body burn with a sudden sensation that left him gasping. He looked at her with impatience, when he spoke his voice is low and hoarse like that of a dangerous beast when it is about to pounce.

"What did you do?" He looked at her with red eyes, even with the lust on his body he is furious beyond imagination. Who does this bitch thinks she is? Poisoning him so he can sleep with her? She must be dreaming! He gritted his teeth in anger.

He put on a pair of sleepers and walked to the door. He was already wearing warm pajamas. Opening the door, he called in the two guards on the door. As soon as they walked in, their heads became muggled with wistful thoughts.

The girl had put something in the incense burner and now the air in the room is contaminated. He watched her red face get pale seeing the burly two men entering the room.

She realized she had completely angered the prophet by her actions. She wanted to plead for mercy but all she could do is whine and moan some incoherent words. Qing Xuan saw the apprehensive look on her body and his own misery subsided a little.

He got out of the room and locked it from outside. These two men were recruited by him from the underground arena in the Vietnam. They are very burly and thanks to his blood have endless stamina.

They will fulfill her wish to be ravaged. He hates people who drug him the most. He was drugged during a meal at home before being taken to the lab in the last life.

He walked unsteadily in the quiet corridor and saw a door at some point. He tried to open it but the door is locked from the inside, someone opened the door. When they saw him, the woman knelt on the ground in trepidation.

"My lord!" She said with a voice full of warship. He walked in and closed the door. The woman didn't lift up her head and just kept her face low eyes glued on the ground.

"Lina." He knows this woman. She was the best sniper in the mercenary team he recruited from a small county in Russia. She has black hair and blue eyes. Her slim body is full of muscles and her eyes are always sharp like an eagle in the sky.

She is not particularly beautiful but she is also very clean. That is why he came here.

"Yeming poisoned me. I need to have sex. Are you willing?" This is a question, not an order. He had experimented with his power and knows in this case, the person will do what they want.

The woman on the floor trembled like a leaf. It seems she is terrified by the thought. She shook her head.

"Go and find me someone clean. I'll have to trouble you with your room." He spoke through clenched teeth. He walked into a room and took off his clothes. He really wants to feel someone's touch on his body.

His body is already drenched in sweat and the faint sound of him gritting his teeth could be heard from time to time. Lina ran out like an arrow and came back with a foreign looking loly with long hair and big brown eyes.

After closing the door on them, Lina slid dowm the wall as if strength had left her legs. She is a lesbian and can't stand being touched by a man. Had he insisted on her, she would have puked all her lunch on the floor. If only he was a girl....

In the room the girl saw the man is already like this...she rubbed herself a little while and because she is looking at the naked prophet in front of her, she is aroused and quickly went to bed.

The man's throbbing cock is long and strong. The sweat on his body seem to make his skin glisten making her feel like he is a devine being. This thought made her want him inside of her even more.

Grunting, Qing Xuan approached the girl, she must have bitten her lower lip. Seeing the blood on the soft cherry lip, the thinned out control that had held him from pouncing on her shattered completely.

He kissed her roughly licking the blood from her lips. The moment the blood went through his taste buds, an explosion of pleasure occurred in his mind and his entire body shuddered. He has never tasted something so delicious.

Feeling unsatisfied, he put his hand on her throat and strangled her while prying her legs open. He saw her face turn red like an apple as if blood will drip from it any moment now.

Instead of trying to get away from him like a sane woman. This bitch actually started moaning and grinding against his hard cock with vigor. Amused, he seperated their lips and looked at her body.

She is not faking it, her juices are flowing, wetting the bed. It seems she likes to be handled roughly. He got up from the bed and had her mouth in front of his cock. Brushing her hair out of the way, he indicated with his eyes.

She opened her mouth and he felt her soft full lips wrap around his cock and a wet sensation enveloped him sending a shiver up his spine.

The girl used her tongue to make him wet and then her lips gripped him and moved up and down making him groan in bliss. Her tongue licked his cock while her lips sucked him nicely. He felt good, really good.

Feeling a little impatient, he pulled her hair and moved deep in her throat. He then started fucking her mouth. He didn't miss her rubbing the throbbing clit where she is squatting. The juices kept falling on the floor. Such a horney little slut. His throat released a grunt if approval.

He pulled her up and in a swift motion turned her around and lined up against her dripping pussy. He can feel it pulsating as the head of his cock is about to slide in the entrance. He moved in slowly and her body trebled in pain. He saw blood. She was pure, interesting.

After entering fully he waited for her pain to subside. He can feel his cock being squeezed in. It's a pleasurable sensation. He moved when he was sure she is ready. Her but chicks clapped against his thighs as he pounds in and out of her.

"My lord, please~~ harder~~"

The sound of pounding and sensual moans could be heard all night. Lina had long left the place to go and book a hotel room in the base.

What prophet doesn't know is that this woman is a trained member of the Yamamoto legion of assassins and international spys who specialize in infiltration. Her specialty is mind manipulation.

When Shane found out about the three massive Castles in the deep lands of the North, he wanted it for himself. Since they are planning on taking over the world they have managed to assassinate the UN even though the harvest is not bad they were not satisfied.

They wanted to know where the resources are located before moving in. The sly UN organizations bombed the resources before Shane could get his hands on them. Everything was destroyed even their progress data on the vaccine for the virus was wiped out.

These people showed determination to rule the world and if someone else wants to do it they shouldn't use them (UN) as stepping stones.

There was even a vaccine which the UN was ready to use in order to regain firm control over the world. Shane got there and put a damper on their plans. Firstly the world is perfect the way it is now.

Why bring a meddlesome thing like a vaccine into it? He may allow it when the world is firmly under his grasp.

The woman called Yeming was implanted with suggestive images of her having sex with the prophet by the assassin. In the end she was tormented by the lucid dreams until she felt like she will go crazy if he doesn't get her hands on the prophet.

Having read Qing Xuan's mind and knowing how strongly he felt about being poisoned, she gave the suggestion to Yeming to drug him and made herself available knowing the other woman in this floor is an extreme lesbian who is disgusted with men.

Now that she is this close to Qing Xuan, she can use his influence to read the situation on the rest of the country. Then she will use him to cripple the rest of the strong forces before the Han people came for a full invasion.

As the two of them got deeper and deer in to the haze of lust, the girl remained dedicated in her plan to implant small suggestions in his head bit by bit. Qing Xuan at some point bit her neck and the sweetness of her blood made him intoxicated with desire and pleasure.

He couldn't stop himself and drained her body until he came inside of her. He saw stars as an explosive orgasm washed over him and the girl became limp under him.

His power just upgraded and now, all the girl's memories belonged to him. Tonight, Qing Xuan found out that he needs to drink other people's blood to supplement his own since he uses it so thoroughly.

Most importantly, after drinking her blood and reading her memories. He aslo absorbed her unique power of mind manipulation. This is something the lab never discovered in the previous life. It turns out even though he is weak like a chicken at the moment, he can still be stronger in the future as long as he drank from someone with a powerful ability.

He licked his lips remembering the delicious taste of the girl, he should be afraid or at least disgusted with the prospect of drinking people's blood. But he is oddly excited. If he looked into a mirror he would see the whites on his eyes have turned completely red.

He was never sick he just needed to nourish himself. What Qing Xuan doesn't know is that he had awaken his bloodline inheritance when he sucked the girl's blood completely. He had met the requirements for his demonic emperor bloodline. It is called the Blood Demonic Emperor.

The sudden enlightenment that gave him knowledge of the ways to upgrade his bloodline is called inheritance. This day will be remembered as the day of the awakening.

Thousands of miles away, Amelia and Blake both looked in the same direction. They can both feel the heaven and earth tremblng in that direction. It seems an unprecedented talent that goes against the sky was born on this day.

Amelia only took a look but soon closed her eyes and consolidated her recent breakthrough. Blake on the other hand wanted to go there and take a look but he can feel that Amelia is still not done. He doesn't want to leave his duty so he sat down and put it out of his thoughts.

The blood demonic Emperor is a very powerful bloodline that the demons would fight to the death in order to absorb as their own. This mortal is lucky he is in a world where people are ignorant because his talent can be robbed using many ways.

This is the aptitude that would make gods jealous. To be able to absorb other people memories and abilities is not something to scoff at, venerable lords would relinquish their path of righteousness and become demonic cultivators just to have this sort of talent.

...

The nine kings have lead soldiers to eliminate a threat and won, this has boosted their reputation in the base especially since there were not many casualties.

By the time Amelia came out of seclusion the base had gone back to its normal state. "What can be so important that you would call me 16 times?"

Amelia looked at Zhu Li with curiosity. "My brother is a technomancer. I don't know if it is a right word but he can mechanically create anything and as long as he charges his power into this energy slip, he can sent instructions to whatever he created and it will be done accordingly. Look at this."

She gave Amelia a fluffy looking cat. It's eyes are large and round. When it looked at her she felt her cold heart melt. She patted it gently but then she realized something is wrong as soon as she touched it. Her usually calm eyes widened.

"A robot? But it feels so real" Amelia said in surprise. If not for her sharp senses she wouldn't know this cat is artificial.

"It is thanks to that resource that can take any shape. I call it the battle companion. If you bond with it, the two can fight together and complete missions together. It is very safe since it bonds with a person with the mental power and sending a command doesn't need to be verbal. It can shapeshift into any form."

Zhu Li said in a prideful manner. She made the pet turn into bee and then a monkey. "The size it up to you if the level of connection is high, you can send it far amd retrieve the pictures from the recorder directly to your brain and watch what is taking place in another location in real time. It is like having two bodies, the level of mental strength must be very high."

"A supernatural mechanic, I can get around that but what is an energy slip?" Amelia asked.

"It is an anegy stone in the shape of and energy slip. Like the cards I desigbed to to be recharged in the base energy center so that people will insert it in ther energy box at home to have electricity and water."

"Only this one can only be charged by the mental power of the one the pet is connected to. It is also connected to the smart bracelet of the owner to retrieve data and emsend instructions if the kevel on connection doesn't allow mental communication."

"The reason I called you is that my brother has built an army of these things and he wonders if you are interested in buying them." Seeing Amelia looking at her and then looking for her brother, she coughs twice.

"My brother is a little shy."

"He was fine the last time I met him."

Zhu Li shrugs at her words.

"Alright show me what it can do." Amelia sat down.

"I used his idea on the armor and we were able to shrink and enlarge it at will. But it now requires a lot of energy. But this way it can be put on at any moment. Check this out."

She pressed on one of her earings and the thing expanded and covered her entire body turning into a suite instead of an armor. She lavitated in the air and introduced many weapons as well as the improved internal guidance system.

"The material can be used in outer space like you asked. We have made a few hundreds. if you can get us a few trustworthy people to mass produce it we can have thousands in a month. We just need this energy stone as a resource to use it at optimal but we can also use the space stone to make it light and cooperate without much problems."

Amelia became very excited. This is it, the reall power that made the Qin family so smug that they wanted to ride on her head. She doesn't want to be passive in the wars to come.

"How has the shield been coming along?" Amelia put aside her excitement and sked Zhu Li. For now the world is still expanding, but when it is done in about six to seven years she wants to cover it so space pirates don't have a way to lanon the planet.

"I managed to make a prototype. It is not large enough to cover the world but it can cover the base, the surrounding cities and the Island base." Zhu Li said still feeling guilty that if she had finishe earlier, the base wouldn't have been exposed to the wolves and thieves of the base army.

She gave Amelia a small box. Inside are five small metal balls and a small remote control in the middle. "Once these are all in place, you can activate by pressing this button. Before you do it you should study it's data thoroughly I have emailed you all the information just now.

Leader. It is enough to cover the eastern Jiang province's 5 cities. It just so happens they are no other bases around here so we can claim the place and turn it into a complete territory." Amelia stood up and brought forth the map to see the location.

She didn't have any doubts that the siblings will give her results soon. She had always been very uneasy with the movements of the Han people unclear. Now she can just lock down everything she wants to protect. Amelia has always been worrying about that collection of mines in the forest near her base and the one in the Island.
