"Whoa~!"
Yi Bai couldn't help but gasp. He repeatedly looked at Jiang Xiaoci's talent data to make sure he wasn't seeing things.
"This is just too exaggerated!"
Yi Bai muttered. Jiang Xiaoci's data completely dwarfed that of Lin Yue and Li Ya. The high values of 368 for Spiritual Will and 211 for Self-healing Immunity didn't shock Yi Bai that much. At most, they indicated that Jiang Xiaoci was a talent type not specialized in combat on the data panel. What truly surprised and astonished Yi Bai were Jiang Xiaoci's talent traits and talents! With three traits and three talents, they combined to give Jiang Xiaoci the perfect positioning as an internal affairs talent!
"With all her talents and trait effects combined, she can practically be called a walking source of group buffs!"
"The most crucial one is [Widespread Friendship]! Do I still need to worry about a shortage of talents in the future? One talent is given for free every month, and there's even a chance to get a high-level talent for free!"
"Isn't this like buy one, get N free?"
Yi Bai couldn't stop grinning from ear to ear. The only thing on Jiang Xiaoci's entire panel that Yi Bai found a bit regretful was the trait [Filial Piety First]. Its effect requires the presence of residents over 40 years old in the territory to take effect. In an apocalyptic environment rife with disasters, it's extremely difficult for the elderly or the very young to survive independently. To put it mildly, they're not very suitable for survival; to put it bluntly, they're a burden. The first round of apocalyptic disasters has already been quite unfriendly to the elderly, and who knows how intractable the subsequent rounds of disasters will be. The probability of these older people surviving is very low. If there are too many such people in the shelter, it will also simultaneously drag down the shelter's disaster resistance capabilities and development potential.
"But its effect is really amazing!"
Yi Bai murmured, "[Awakening of the Bloodline] can summon talents with the characteristics of this country... It's truly unique. Filial piety is the foremost of all virtues."
"It seems that if I have time in the future, I'll have to take in a few elderly people appropriately."
Yi Bai calculated and found that as long as he controlled the number of elderly people, the effect of this talent trait would bring great benefits to the shelter.
Just as Yi Bai was thinking about how to make full use of Jiang Xiaoci's traits and talent effects, suddenly a woman's soft moan came from the bed behind him.
"Mm... Water, water..."
It was Lin Yue. She had opened her eyes and regained consciousness from her serious injuries. Her injuries had almost healed, but she was still very weak.
"Here's the water. Drink it slowly."
Before Yi Bai could react, Jiang Xiaoci had already fetched water, crouched beside the bed, and was patiently and gently feeding Lin Yue.
"Who... who are you?"
Lin Yue looked confused and vigilant. She saw Yi Bai standing behind Jiang Xiaoci and asked hoarsely, "Sir, is she a new member?"
"Yes."
Yi Bai nodded and deliberately emphasized, "She's very important. From now on, you all have to listen to her regarding everything at home, and I'm no exception."
Among Jiang Xiaoci's trait effects, it was clearly stated that she was an internal affairs talent of the [Military Advisor type] with remarkable wisdom. This woman was smart, so it was definitely right to follow her advice on anything. Even if something went wrong, it wouldn't matter. Because Yi Bai thought that if even Jiang Xiaoci's wisdom could lead to mistakes, he definitely wouldn't be able to figure out what the problem was either. As a leader, one should have self-awareness to be able to know how to make good use of people.
"Very important..."
Lin Yue chewed on these words and, mustering her weak strength, tried to stand up. "Comrade, I'd better do it myself..."
She didn't dare to let Jiang Xiaoci take care of her, but Jiang Xiaoci pushed her back gently. "You're injured. You need to rest."
"Listen to her and rest well."
Yi Bai said with a smile and, after a pause, also emphasized, "You're important too. Don't take your health lightly."
I'm important too.
Lin Yue was stunned for a moment and then looked up at the man in the darkness. He was smiling gently.
"Our family has grown a bit stronger than a few days ago. There's finally some vitality."
Yi Bai sat on the bed and said to Jiang Xiaoci, "Counting you and me, there are now four people in the shelter, namely me, you, Li Ya, and Lin Yue."
"Lin Yue is my first subordinate and a very loyal soldier."
"Li Ya is an engineer and has some experience in renovation and scientific research."
"Also, I've just checked more information related to talents. I've already delegated some of the shelter's operation permissions to you."
Yi Bai paused, looking very serious. "Xiaoci, can I call you that? The shelter will rely on you to a large extent in the future. I'm not a smart person. I hope you can use your wisdom to protect everyone."
"Yes."
Jiang Xiaoci nodded gently and replied softly, "I will, sir."
Lin Yue, who was on the side, looked at the two of them. When they finished their conversation, Lin Yue couldn't help but interrupt and ask, "Sir, have all the enemies been eliminated?"
Yi Bai nodded. "Yes."
"Sir, I seem to remember... you had some soldiers. Where are they?"
"They've left."
Yi Bai said with a bitter smile, "Our shelter still has four people for now, but perhaps there will be more in the future."
"By the way, Xiaoci, I moved all the supplies from upstairs back today. I haven't had time to count and sort them yet. I'll leave that to you."
"Okay, sir."
Jiang Xiaoci nodded and got up to walk towards the pile of supplies. Her gait was light and elegant, swaying gracefully as she walked, a pleasure to watch.
Lin Yue also saw that the room, which wasn't crowded before, was now filled with all kinds of supplies. From toilet paper and toothbrushes to food and drinks, everything was there. The supplies filled the entire room and even spilled out the door.
"Whoa!"
Lin Yue widened her beautiful eyes in amazement. "Sir, did you rob someone?"
"Yes, I robbed our enemies."
Yi Bai laughed heartily. He was in a great mood. The hidden danger of external enemies had been resolved, and there were more talents in the shelter. Everything was developing in a good direction. Even though it was still a scorching apocalyptic world outside, his shelter had begun to take shape and had a certain level of disaster resistance and protection capabilities.
"Sir, you're amazing."
Lin Yue praised sincerely. Yi Bai shook his head. "I'm not amazing. If you hadn't risked your life to hold off the enemies, we would have been in danger."
"You're the one who deserves the most credit for getting through this crisis!"
"Sir, it's my duty."
Lin Yue lowered her head a bit shyly. Even a forthright girl could be shy sometimes. "Protecting you is my responsibility."
"Yes."
Yi Bai nodded with a smile and asked, "By the way, the treatment item I used on you seems to have some probability effects and might enhance you. How do you feel now?"
"Feel?"
Lin Yue shook her head. "I don't know. I'm a bit weak now and can't judge accurately."
Yi Bai nodded and casually opened Lin Yue's panel to take a look.
