Lei Qi walked along, looking around with curiosity. "I must say, this Base 03 actually seems pretty good. Boss Sang, have you noticed anything?"
They all knew that Sang Luoluo possessed sensory abilities and could see things they couldn't.
Sang Luoluo said, "There are energy supply channels everywhere here, including new energy sources and Crystal Core. It's very advanced."
She couldn't help but think to herself, no matter how advanced it was, it was still just a bunch of metal lumps that she couldn't understand.
Qi Xue said, "That base commander seemed like a nice guy. I've never seen such a young base commander before. He was good-looking, seemed capable, and was so approachable."
Qi Feng's gaze swept across Sang Luoluo's face, observing her expression, and he said in a low voice, "You can know a person's face but not their heart. From the very beginning, Base 03 was a family business, belonging to the bloodline inheritance system. The Chang family owns all rights to Base 03."
"I overheard him talking to us just now; he seemed to want us to stay and was trying to win us over."
Sang Luoluo looked up at him. "I think so too. They made me demonstrate my abilities right away, they must be interested in my abilities."
Qi Xue followed up, "He said he wanted us to do a mission for Base 03, was it to find out how capable we are?"
Qi Feng quickly added, "Most likely. In that case, when you go out to do the mission, Sang Luoluo shouldn't do anything; leave the rest to us."
Sang Luoluo had no objections.
The group took the elevator down to their dormitory area, which was two floors below the top floor. The rooms were rowed together, with each person having their own. Although the rooms weren't large, they were furnished with beds, desks, chairs, and benches, and looked quite nice.
However, Sang Luoluo enjoys life on the ground more than in the sky. Outside the window is the ruins of Base 71, completely different from what it used to be, dilapidated and desolate.
Next, they will have to help this outsider Base 03, clean up their base's supplies.
Ha, this world really is a place where large bases firmly control all resources.
The wristwatch contained the base manual that Chang Mingyao had given them, as well as mission options. Sang Luoluo had looked through it; they were all simple missions: uncover ruins and find places where supplies were usually hidden.
In such a short time, Base 03 has already taken control of several warehouses at Base 71 and is using aircraft to transport giant robotic arms and robots, clearing the rubble and moving supplies into the aircraft, making trip after trip to the warehouses at Base 03.
Basically, all the supplies that could be found at Base 03 have been taken into control by Base 03.
On the ruins below, mutated animals began to appear, searching for human corpses, which were the most delicious food for them.
Despite their speed, the mutated animals on the ground couldn't escape the hunting range of the aerial vehicles and were easily eliminated.
Sang Luoluo was also shocked after reading it.
Base 03 is exceptionally strong.
No wonder Qi Feng seemed so powerful when he mentioned Base 03 on the first floor.
Staying here was impossible; she wasn't used to living on an airplane, and Base No. 32 wasn't bad either.
While Sang Luoluo was looking at these materials, the others were also looking at them, trying to learn as much as possible about Base 03. This was Base 03, the legendary Base 03!
Not long after, Qi Xue's voice came out in the group chat.
"When are we going on our mission? Will we be able to fly a separate aircraft when we go out?"
Qi Feng said, "Let's do it tomorrow morning. Everyone should get a good rest tonight."
He added at the end, "Don't get your hopes up too high. We'll probably be doing the same assigned tasks as the other Evolver in Base 03."
No need to worry about being ambushed at night, Sang Luoluo lay on the bed, hugging a mutated wild orchid, and fell into a deep sleep. She was too tired; she had been too stressed during the day, and her Mental Power had been greatly depleted.
After a night, Sang Luoluo felt much better, as if she had been injected with chicken blood.
The group went out together. Chang Mingyao had set permissions for them, allowing them to eat for free at the base canteen for the next few days, but with a limit: the amount of food a normal person could eat. Anything beyond that would have to be paid for.
Lei Qi said, "I went to the cafeteria early this morning, and wow, their cafeteria is huge! There's so much to choose from, and you have to exchange Crystal Core for everything."
If you don't work hard, you'll only be able to drink nutritional supplements.
Yes, large bases like Base 03 also have nutrient solutions, but they also have their own planting bases, so most people can still eat fresh food.
The canteen is downstairs. Several people put on protective suits and went to the canteen window. There was no need to queue. Many people exchanged their food and took it out to eat, or ate it at other times. Not many people ate directly here.
Sang Luoluo an apple, followed by stewed potatoes with meat and a radish soup.
With her credit limit used up, Sang Luoluo didn't really like the taste of the radish soup and pushed it in front of Sang Yunpu.
"You have quite an appetite."
"I just found out they have their own planting base."
While Assistant Jian was eating, Sang Luoluo decided not to let him go on the mission with them. His injuries hadn't fully healed yet, so it would be better for him to go back and rest.
"Is their own plantation really that impressive?" Lei Qi asked as he ate.
Assistant Jian explained, "Their Planting System is very sophisticated, with all sorts of fruits and vegetables. Base 03 has existed since the beginning of the wasteland, boasting a long history of cultivation. Its Planting System is located inside the base, unaffected by radiation contamination, so the produce is almost entirely radiation-free. This is different from Base No. 32. Although Base No. 32 also has a long history of cultivation, the radiation environment drastically altered its growing conditions, resulting in only a small portion of its produce being edible."
"Therefore, the difference in strength between the two bases is still quite significant."
"In particular, some time ago, Base 03 partnered with the Farm Owner to stockpile a considerable amount of food, which, when canned, can be preserved for a very long time."
Assistant Jian's eyes were full of envy. Base 03 was really strong. At least they didn't lack food or water, and the water in their rooms was purified. They could take a shower and wash up every day. As long as they had enough Crystal Core to pay for it, they could live very well at Base 03.
Sang Luoluo sensed the envy in Assistant Jian and said, " Jian Cheng, now that Base 71 is gone, you can stay at Base 03 if you want. There's no need for you to come to Base No. 32 with us."
He is very capable; he used to be Dr. Wang's most trusted assistant. He knows the most about the laboratory's experiments, and with his abilities, he can definitely thrive at Base 03.
Jian Cheng is somewhat wavering.
Chapter 206 My Hand Speed is Fast Among the people I know, there are some who want to...
Although Sang Luoluo also wanted to take Jian Cheng to Base No. 32, she didn't want to interfere with Jian Cheng's decision. "Think it over carefully yourself. You can choose to stay wherever you want."
Jian Cheng hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay."
Qi Feng and the others remained silent. They weren't very familiar with Jian Cheng, nor were they that familiar with Dr. Wang. Just as Sang Luoluo said, he could choose wherever he wanted; that was his freedom.
Lei Qi said, "I must say, the food here is really good. The canned goods are quite good too. Thinking back to our life in the Guard, it's incomparable."
Qi Xue was also upset by this thought. "Yeah, tell me, they're both bases, so why is there such a big difference?"
Later, when they joined Sang Luoluo, their treatment improved, and they could eat food purchased from the Farm App Tiantian. That was the life people should be living! If they were still in the Guard, they would have switched jobs long ago without hesitation if Base 03 offered them such a deal.
Seeing that everyone was enjoying their meal, Sang Luoluo brought out a plate of cooked fish—a huge one, still steaming hot.
"I didn't eat properly yesterday, so I'm having fish today. I need to be full to have the energy to work."
Without any hesitation, the group divided the fish up cleanly.
Sang Luoluo put her empty plate into her spatial storage, and then put all the remaining canned food boxes and plates they had finished eating into their respective areas, sorting them out before setting off.
They went to the mission hall to queue up. The mission they chose was to move rubble, which was basically just operating machinery to move things, relatively simple.
It means spending a whole day outside.
Of course, they wouldn't be assigned tasks involving searching for Crystal Core, supplies, or potions. Chang Mingyao knew her abilities were special and was afraid she would embezzle them. Later, when the spacecraft brought them back, they could be allowed to handle them. All the searched supplies were under surveillance, and no one dared to play any tricks unless they wanted to die.
Sang Luoluo and the others naturally stayed together. They were assigned a flying vehicle carrying dozens of transport robots. After arriving at the mission location, they landed and released the robots.
They were now moving the ruins of a small warehouse belonging to a private company. Inside, there were some protective clothing and a small amount of medicine—not particularly valuable items, but they couldn't abandon them, so they had no choice but to dig them up.
Base 03 even has detailed information on the supplies in this warehouse.
That's outrageous.
Sang Luoluo told Qi Feng about this, and Qi Feng guessed that Base 03 might have already obtained information about Base 71. Of course, it wasn't just Base 71; there might be information about other bases as well. To put it bluntly, it was a competition between various bases, and they all had spies among themselves.
Currently, spacecraft from Base 03 are being dispatched day and night to search for supplies at Base 71 as quickly as possible. This is also out of concern that the upcoming meteor shower might take some time to resolve, and searching for these supplies after it ends will be much more difficult, requiring far more manpower and resources.
