Travel through the apocalypse and save people under the heroine's hands
Chapter 255 Residents of the Brilliant Base
Since Fu Bohuan had opened the door, the people in the back row had no choice but to go down.
Long before the three people in the back seat got out of the car, Ling Xuan and Huo Siyu had already vaguely seen the distance between them and the back door.
Although Li Binyi had a relaxed smile on his face after getting off the car, his body was actually tense and he was standing towards the door.
Mo Yuming first entered an ornamental fish store and saw a large bag of turtle food. He opened the seal, took one and put it in the bowl, and asked the little turtle: "Do you want to eat this?"
The little turtle swallowed the turtle food in one gulp and said, "It's edible, but it tastes just average."
Mo Yuming tried several types of turtle feed and found the best taste. He also let the little turtle choose a fish tank and put a few stones in the tank.
Then Mo Yuming took a look at the fish feed, remembered the group of koi outside the base, and took some with him.
After buying the aquatic animals' supplies, they began the part that Fu Bohuan was looking forward to, looking for fruit trees.
"Xiao Shuixi, here are seeds of fruit trees and tomato seedlings." Fu Bohuan noticed the seed packages on the shelf with his sharp eyes.
If it were before the end of the world, even if you found the seeds, you would worry that it would take several years to grow into a tree. However, with plant-based mutants, this process has been greatly shortened.
Although their base does not have plant-type psychics for the time being, Mo Yuming has the earth-type and plant-type mixed crystal core that defeated Director Zhou before. This crystal core is placed in Fu Bohuan's laboratory in the mixed base. When they return, let Xiaoyuan awaken the plant-type psychic ability.
"This tomato seedling is almost ripe. Should we take it?" Fu Bohuan's eyes were full of anticipation.
"No, none of us have plant-related abilities. The tomato seedlings can only be placed in the cargo box. The car is very bumpy during the drive and the oxygen is thin, so they will easily go bad." Mo Yuming sighed.
He also wanted to eat ready-made food. Since the end of the world, they had been able to eat fruit very rarely. If they didn't eat fruit anymore, he felt that he would become malnourished.
"Then let's bring more seeds so that we can use them for trading when we pass by other bases in the future." Ling Xuan suggested.
Mo Yuming thought it made sense, so he picked out several large bags of seeds of each kind, and then he also found a lot of compound fertilizers, organic fertilizers, and some unknown fertilizers and took some of them.
Seeing that one third of the cargo box was already loaded before reaching K City, Mo Yuming thought: Why not just see if there are any other trucks on the road.
Ling Xuan: That's a good idea. We can chat alone in the car and improve our impression. No! No! If so, what will happen if he is in someone else's car?
Mo Yuming happened to see a truck parked in the tree planting area. Ling Xuan followed his gaze and the moment he saw the car, he was already thinking about how to persuade him, but he found that the truck had actually moved.
There was someone in the truck? And the truck was heading in their direction.
Several people and a zombie immediately went on alert, and the truck stopped near them. A man with bangs and another man with messy hair got out of the truck.
"Where are you from?" The man with bangs looked at them warily.
"We are from the mixed base." Li Binyi replied.
The two men looked at each other with some confusion in their eyes. The man with messy hair said, "Mixed base... I haven't heard of it."
"The country is so big, there must be bases you haven't visited." Mo Yuming disagreed.
"That's true. Can I ask about the situation at your base? My brother and I feel so depressed staying at the Brilliant Base. We don't want to go back to that base." The man with bangs said with a wry smile.
"Where is the Glorious Base?" Mo Yuming did not trust the stranger who suddenly appeared, so he did not answer immediately.
"Just drive along the main road ahead. It will take about two hours to get there. The base is located near the reservoir." The man with bangs pointed them in a direction.
"What's the reason you want to leave the Brilliant Base?" Ling Xuan examined their eyes carefully.
"Because the taxes at the Glorious Base are very high. For example, when we come out to collect supplies, we can keep 20%, and the base will charge us 80%." The man with messy hair answered.
"With such high taxes, can the base retain people?" Fu Bohuan was a little skeptical. He thought he was already cruel enough, but it turned out that there were even more cruel people.
"Yes, because the reservoir controlled by the Brilliant Base connects the rivers upstream and downstream of the two cities. In other words, unless we want to go to a city far away, as long as we need water, we have to obey the rule of the Brilliant Base." The man with messy hair had haggard eyes.
"Aren't there people with water-related abilities?" Li Binyi felt that the entire area should not be ruled by one base.
"Those with water-related abilities will be recruited to control the reservoir. If they disobey, they will be killed immediately. This is written in the rules of the base." The man with bangs explained.
Fu Bohuan: It’s more cruel than the previous siege base. In the past, the siege base would at least imprison people and almost never kill them... Hmm? Imprison? Imprison... Small water system...
Fu Bohuan’s darkness value +5, current darkness value is 15.
Upon hearing how that base dealt with those with water abilities, several people and a zombie all frowned.
"If we want to go forward, we will pass by the Brilliant Base, right?" Mo Yuming felt that that place would be very troublesome.
"If you tell us the situation of the mixed base, we can show you a trail. We usually take that trail." said the man with bangs.
"The mixed base is short of resources and many facilities are not perfect. The work assigned to each person is quite extensive. Also, the journey is long, and we came out just to collect supplies." This is all Mo Yuming said.
"Have you passed by other bases?" After hearing about the scarcity of resources, the two brothers lost interest.
Mo Yuming briefly told them about the Peace Base and the New Life Base.
"In short, there are various situations in these two bases at present, and it is impossible to make them 100% suitable for settlement." Mo Yuming sighed.
Unlike in peacetime, the end times face too many tests for human beings. These tests will hinder human progress and development, and even make it impossible to restore the original order.
"Damn it!" The man with messy hair was scratching his hair frantically.
"Thank you for the information you provided. In this case, we can only look for it further. Now I will take you to the small path." The voice of the man with bangs was full of helplessness.
"By the way, why did you come here?" Mo Yuming asked puzzledly.
"We plan to look for birds or fish that we can eat." The man with messy hair said casually.
Mo Yuming found the flaw and realized that they were lying.
After all, Mo Yuming found out that it did take two hours to drive to the reservoir, but with only a two-hour drive, they could have looked for surviving animals here in the early stages, but now such a long time has passed, and birds and fish are animals that need to be fed every day.
Unless they were mutated animals, the chances of those animals surviving were zero. Mo Yuming didn't believe that they were going to eat the corpses of animals that had been dead for several months.
It’s strange that they appear here. How come they just happen to pass by?
