Chapter 46 : Fatal Crisis
Fatal Crisis (Chapter 46)
This time, administering the medicine went smoothly.
One hand gently lifted Gu Luoyu's head, while the other poured the potion into her mouth.
The holy water potion, no longer than a finger, was small in volume. However, as Ye Sheng poured the liquid into Gu Luoyu's mouth, its effects were immediately visible. The fatigue and weariness from overusing her powers quickly faded away.
It was as if a withered flower had regained its vitality.

Ye Sheng finally felt relieved.
The holy water potion took effect almost instantly.

Gu Luoyu's eyelids trembled slightly.
In the next moment, her crimson eyes opened, carrying a hint of shyness.
She looked like a lazy cat basking in the sunlight, stretching languidly. Her soft, light pink hair cascaded down, some strands wrapping around Ye Sheng's arm like climbing roses. Its silky texture was irresistible, as smooth as satin.
"Feeling better now?"
É n̈ ǔ m̄â
Ye Sheng maintained her seated posture, looking down at Gu Luoyu with her bright black eyes.
Her mood was lifted by Gu Luoyu’s recovery, and a cheerful smile adorned her adorable face.
It was the kind of smile that made people want to pinch her cheeks—soft and bouncy to the touch!
“Mm.”

Gu Luoyu responded softly but didn’t rush to get up. Instead, she remained in the same position, gazing up at Ye Sheng’s face. A thought flashed through her mind.
Although she knew Ye Sheng had secrets, the closer they became, the more mysteries seemed to surface.
En̊ um̀а́
The potion… Even though Ye Sheng had discreetly put the bottle away while Gu Luoyu was "unconscious," she had been fully awake the entire time, merely pretending to be passed out.
So, even with her eyes closed, she was entirely aware of what had happened.
However, since Ye Sheng didn’t want to expose her secret, Gu Luoyu decided to keep up the pretense of ignorance. After all, Ye Sheng was by her side, and there was plenty of time to uncover everything slowly—no need to rush.
Besides, judging by her actions, Ye Sheng seemed to have strong feelings for her.
As long as she didn’t reveal her true self in front of Ye Sheng and maintained this favorable impression, there was nothing to worry about.
In an instant, countless thoughts ran through Gu Luoyu’s mind. She blinked and then naturally reached up to wrap her arms around Ye Sheng’s slender waist, pulling them closer together until Ye Sheng almost ended up sitting on the ground.

Looking at Gu Luoyu again, she now resembled a large, cuddly beast begging for affection—utterly adorable and impossible to resist.

Ye Sheng tentatively raised her small hand, then placed it gently on the pitiful girl's head.
She patted her softly, over and over, excitedly smoothing her hair.
"It feels so nice~"
Gu Luoyu didn’t show any resistance, like a graceful leopard retracting its claws, exuding harmlessness. She spoke leisurely, “Ye Sheng, I think my ability has leveled up again. This time, after overdrawing it, I recovered much faster than before.”

“…”
Ye Sheng felt a bit guilty hearing that, but then she remembered her cheat ability was hers alone.

Instantly, her confidence returned.
After all, there was no way this little sweetheart could guess she had a jackpot-drawing cheat ability!
Still, the rapid recovery of abilities wasn’t something that could withstand scrutiny, so Ye Sheng quickly changed the subject.
"Gu Luoyu, I went out this afternoon to buy some furniture and had a close call! Luckily, some espers and mercenaries showed up just in time. Otherwise, the escaped experiment subjects from the Black Spring Freemasonry’s base would have caused a massacre!"
Е̌n̂ uḿӓ. і̄d
Ye Sheng vividly recounted the terrifying encounter in great detail.
When she mentioned the experiment subjects, her expression became complex, unsure of how to evaluate them.
Pitiful? Yes, they were pitiful.
After all, they didn’t willingly become experiment subjects—many were forced into it.

But their pitiful circumstances didn’t justify their violent actions!
Ye Sheng, having arrived halfway into this post-apocalyptic world, hadn’t fully assimilated into its mindset. Her thinking was still influenced by the ideals and reasoning of her past life. If the wastelanders knew, they’d surely mock her for being overly idealistic—labeling her as a dreamer or even a bleeding heart.
Еnu m̌ а .і̀ d
In the wasteland, morality wasn’t what mattered; survival was.
However, Ye Sheng had the fortune of waking up in a mitigation zone during her early days here. While she suffered from hunger and cold, her interactions with others were limited. In fact, she often kept her distance from people, preferring to act alone most of the time.
Now that she had entered the outer city of the safe zone, avoiding contact with others was no longer possible.
The harsh realities of the wasteland were beginning to reveal themselves.
If Ye Sheng had been on her own, facing the overwhelming malice of this world, she would surely have panicked. But with this little sweetheart by her side, she felt fearless!
"They called themselves the ‘Shackels of Sin’ organization? From the looks of it, other bases of the Black Spring Freemasonry were also attacked. Many experiment subjects escaped, and the losses included several top-tier experimental specimens," Gu Luoyu added at the right moment, following Ye Sheng's narrative.

Ye Sheng nodded repeatedly as she listened.
"If the base can’t eliminate the ‘Shackles of Sin’ quickly, things are going to get really bad. Those experiment subjects, because of the transformation potions, harbor a deep hatred for the base and the Black Spring Freemasonry. They’ll definitely start enacting plans for revenge."
"Throwing bombs in the safe zone isn’t much of a feat," Gu Luoyu said casually. "I’d guess the escaped experiment subjects are banding together to attack other Black Spring Freemasonry bases. When they free more experiment subjects, they’ll likely drag down the researchers as well."
"And if it escalates to them kidnapping ordinary people from the base and forcibly injecting them with transformation potions..."
At this point, Gu Luoyu stopped speaking, but Ye Sheng understood the implication.
If things really reached that point, chaos would be inevitable.
Е nù m ӓ
That said, if they could foresee this, the base authorities surely wouldn’t sit idle—they’d already have contingency plans.
However...

"Gu Luoyu, there’s something I’ve never quite understood. If transformation potions have such severe side effects, why does the base continue to conduct experiments on them?"
Even if the base’s transformation potions had fewer side effects than the Black Spring Fellowship’s, there was no way to be certain. Using the Fellowship’s potions as the standard was alarming enough.
Just thinking about it made her uneasy.
Hearing Ye Sheng's question, Gu Luoyu responded nonchalantly, "Because the base won’t remain stable for much longer."
É ňu.m а.iď
"???"
Ye Sheng was utterly confused. "What do you mean the base won’t remain stable for long?"
Noticing Ye Sheng's curiosity and how she instinctively straightened her posture, Gu Luoyu sat up as well, shedding her lazy demeanor. Her tone grew serious as she began to explain.
"The base's population has been in a constant state of decline, while the mutated creatures in the wild keep growing stronger. S-class mutated creatures are becoming increasingly active, and their territories are slowly shifting out of the deep wilderness, inching closer to the base."

"If espers don’t succumb to self-destruction, they still have some combat effectiveness… But now, the base is searching for alternatives to espers. That’s why transformation potions are being developed—so that, in the future, they can mass-produce combat-capable personnel."
Her explanation was blunt, leaving Ye Sheng silent. After a moment, she raised her hand to ask, "Is this insider information among ability users?"
Еn̄ũm а_
“Mm, ordinary people don’t know about this,” Gu Luoyu replied with a cheerful smile. “Only espers and mercenaries active on the wilderness frontlines are aware. Those increasingly powerful mutated creatures? They’re being driven out by even stronger ones.”
She said this so casually, seemingly oblivious to the shock it caused Ye Sheng. The news hit her like a bolt of lightning.
“Oh my god!”
(⊙_⊙)
She had only just begun to adapt to life in the wasteland, and now, an even deadlier crisis was brewing, relentless and unyielding.
No wonder.

No wonder Erensu had faced no consequences for killing so many people within the base.
And no wonder the Gu family had suffered severe repercussions for seemingly plotting against Erensu afterward.
It was all because Erensu had been an exceptionally powerful esper.
Someone like that was worth ten others, capable of taking on powerful mutated creatures. With the constant absorption of energy stones, such an individual might one day even stand a chance against S-class or higher mutated creatures.
What a shame… Someone so powerful was now dead.
Ye Sheng sighed quietly, feeling a bit troubled. Initially, her plan was simply to observe the research institute. But after hearing all this, she was starting to consider a different course of action.
W̄eb n̄ о́v̆ е́l̂ Ӗ n.u m̀ а
When the time came, she would need to evaluate the base’s transformation potions. If they had minimal side effects, she might have to get an injection to boost her strength and prepare for the coming crises.
Of course, if the potions turned her into some grotesque form, she’d pass on that option.

She still had her jackpot-drawing cheat, after all.
“Oh, by the way, Gu Luoyu, I might start working at the Esper Research Institute tomorrow. Want to come along? The pay’s pretty generous, and it’s related to transformation potions. I want to gather some intel first.”
“The Esper Research Institute, huh…”
Hearing this “old friend” mentioned, Gu Luoyu couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
E n ù mà . і̆ d̈
As someone who had once been a highly scrutinized subject of the institute, her sudden disappearance for so many days must have had them worried sick about her!
