After Shen Jin’s group returned safely to Home No. 1 and he reviewed the base’s plans and supplies, Liu Jiannan called him sobbing for help.

• Shen Jin compared three nuclear power station designs and chose the safer configuration that produced 19.2 million kilowatt-hours a day.
• Shen Jin built five sealed nuclear power stations on connected mountain peaks and posted signs forbidding unauthorized entry.

Shen Jin used electricity from his new nuclear power stations to install and test a [Teleporter] between Home No. 1 and Heavenly Net Headquarters. The first bulk trade succeeded, and Liu Jiannan began considering how Heavenly Net might use the technology more widely.

• Shen Jin enclosed the five operating nuclear power stations, arranged to transmit their electricity to Home No. 1, and ordered patrols to keep people away from the radioactive hills.

He then opened two routes for pseudo-superhumans to become tier 1 superhumans: buying an awakening potion or passing a recruitment test.

Shen Jin released Liu Dalao after Fu Wei failed to explain his unusual condition, while Jayce and Sivir gathered a horde of 500,000 zombies to attack Home No. 1. As the pair led the horde toward the base, Liu Dalao reached T City and began summoning zombies.

• Fu Wei told Shen Jin that a month of experiments had revealed no explanation for Liu Dalao’s retained human consciousness, and Shen Jin let Liu Dalao leave with Su Lele while secretly tracking him.
• Jayce and Sivir arrived near Q City with 100 mutants, found few zombies by Home No. 1, and used devices to attract zombies farther away.

• Home No. 1 noticed the horde gathering near T City but chose to wait before alerting Shen Jin, while Liu Dalao arrived in the area and began summoning zombies.
