Chapter 842: 444 The situation is critical_2
After a round of questions and answers, Bai Zhengli and Fang Jintang gained more understanding of other bases. They heard that so bases were still facing the threat of zombies and that food was running low. All four parents, including Qu Qianhe and Shui Rou, couldn’t help but sigh heavily.
They had lived longer, experienced more, and had almost witnessed firsthand how the entire Hua Country transitioned from poverty to prosperity. However, what no one expected was that this prosperity was like a splendid firework that, after its brilliance, quickly faded into decay.
With the onset of the apocalypse, the wealth of the past all transford into waste paper and aningless data. Everyone barely survived the crisis of zombies, only to face an even more severe food crisis!
It’s easy to imagine that with the appearance of zombies and biological mutations, a large amount of farmland was either destroyed or abandoned, making it impossible to continue cultivation. The surviving humans could only shrink back into safe zones, but there is only so much space in a safe zone. How could the food crisis be resolved?
The situation in Long Province wasn’t as severe as at Market Base because this area was originally a major agricultural province with vast expanses of arable land and quite a rich grain reserve, almost worthy of being called the granary of the entire Hua Country. With such an advantage, everyone could temporarily not worry about the food crisis.
However, even though Hope Base had quite a lot of farmland, with agriculture and husbandry developing well, there were still so many people in the base, and food would only diminish. They were still in a situation where their inco couldn’t cover their expenses. If no solution was found, one day, Hope Base would also face a food crisis.
Bai Zhengli and Fang Jintang had discussed this topic before. It’s just that Hope Base still had a rich grain reserve, so they both felt that the pressure wasn’t too great for the ti being. But after listening to Fang Yuxin and the others’ description, they linked it to the situation of Market Base and felt heavy-hearted, realizing that they needed to solve the food problem as soon as possible.
Even if Hope Base didn’t face a food crisis temporarily, what about the other bases? Even if they didn’t plan to be saviors, they couldn’t just watch the people in other bases starve to death! Moreover, those bases couldn’t just sit and wait for death. If soone sought refuge from them, would they really shut the door on them?
Upon hearing that Fang Yuxin and the others had already encountered a Sixth-level zombie, which could even control human blood, the four parents’ mood beca even heavier. Fang Yuxin had previously told them about the situation with Advanced zombies through a ssenger dove, but at that ti, because they hadn’t seen it firsthand and there hadn’t been any Advanced zombies appearing at Hope Base, the four had only increased the base’s defense level and implented thorough checks on people entering the base. Since no incidents had occurred, they felt sowhat complacent.
Hearing it again now, the four finally realized the terrifying nature of Advanced zombies. These Advanced zombies could disguise themselves as humans without revealing any flaws, and they could even control blood. If they infiltrated Hope Base, chaos would inevitably ensue! Who knows how many would die then!
It wasn’t until later when Fang Yuxin described their findings outside that the four’s mood improved slightly. Those Advanced Crystal Cores weren’t significant, but the laboratory equipnt, special dicines, and research materials that Fang Yuxin brought back were enormous treasures for the entire Hope Base!
During the days when Fang Yuxin and the others were away, they summoned more experts with real talent and skills, assigning them into research institutions and also acquired experintal equipnt from elsewhere. But even so, achieving results wasn’t possible in just a day or two.
Yet, with what Fang Yuxin brought back, they could avoid many detours!
Though the four parents weren’t into research, they weren’t foolish. Especially after discussing with so of the experts, the four beca even more aware of the importance of the items Fang Yuxin brought back!
Seeing it was about ti, Qu Qianhe and Shui Rou stood up and went to the kitchen, planning to cook a big al to reward everyone. Fang Yuxin, not wanting the two to overwork, joined them to help, taking the chance to bring out a considerable amount of fresh ingredients from her space.
Taking advantage of this mont, Bai Zhengli and Fang Jintang discussed the current state of the base with Bai Ye and Fang Yuyang. Once they were almost done with their discussion, breakfast was ready.
