Chapter 360 Disposable Toys
Chapter 360 Disposable Toys
The family was naturally happy for Bona. Rein looked at his brother's family, who were looking a bit worried, and smiled as he put his arm around his shoulder to comfort him, "Rein, although you are not a superhuman, your pre-apocalyptic repair skills are excellent. I believe the base definitely needs someone like you. You can give it a try."
Reggie's wife smiled and looked at her sister-in-law, "Casey, you're very good at being a sweetheart. I feel you can continue doing what you like, like selling small cakes. Most people in the base don't lack universal currency and have some left over."
“Yeah, it’s the apocalypse now, everyone’s probably thinking about saving money for whatever they need, since they might not have any left at any time. They’re definitely trying to enjoy life as much as possible. But there aren’t any of these snacks for sale in the base right now, so I think this is a good idea.” Raine agreed.
If this were in Xiyue, they certainly wouldn't dare make such a suggestion, because everyone would be struggling to get enough to eat and wear, let alone consider this issue.
However, in Nanling, thanks to the purified seeds from the space that Lu Yize took out, they could use their superpowers to accelerate the growth of these plants and make clothes from them, so they had no shortage of food and clothing.
Furthermore, everyone can earn universal currency by taking on tasks, so they are relatively well-off. However, there are no other major expenses at the base. Some of the younger people are not very skilled, so they have to post tasks on the bulletin board to find someone to make food for them.
Both Reggie's wife and Casey took on such tasks. They would get the ingredients from the task giver, cook them, and hand them over to the giver, who would then pay in the universal currency specified in the task.
You can usually get 7-10 universal coins at a time, without much trouble.
These young people are mostly superhumans. They can earn hundreds of universal coins in one mission. They also take on hunting missions and hunt a lot of meat for the base.
Occasionally, strange beasts, plants, and sea creatures would come to their door. At first, they were so frightened that they almost fainted, but later they got used to it and even became accustomed to the sea creatures hunting them down and asking them to help deal with them.
Sea monsters used to eat raw, but after entering this base, they opened the door to a new world. Now, most of them don't like to eat raw food because the thought of swallowing the intestines of these creatures makes them feel uncomfortable.
They are no longer the carefree people they once were!
Not only that, these sea monsters and strange creatures also insisted on wearing clothes like humans, which became a new trend among them.
It's not just a trend; in this apocalyptic world of extreme weather, clothing is indeed necessary for warmth.
There is a small textile factory in the base now. Reggie's wife was a fashion designer before the apocalypse and could also make clothes. After Reggie found a job, she also submitted her resume.
I hope to officially enter a textile factory and have a suitable job.
The base was thriving. Lu Yize withdrew his mental energy. At present, the operation of the base was basically stable, and occasional minor disputes could be handled properly.
Currently, there is no shortage of food or clothing in the base. Recently, probably because there has been no interference from other races, the group of people and the alien sea beasts have been getting along very well.
Even Sheng Xue's research project on cleaning impurities from zombie brains has made initial progress, and Jiang Yue even went to assist her twice.
Lu Yize didn't stop her. With his current mental strength, even if Jiang Yue ran out of the base, she would still be within his mental range.
Compared to their base's closed-off and indifferent attitude, the Donggu and Beisha bases were in chaos, which was largely due to Lu Yize and others.
However, they didn't do anything special; they simply made public their method of distinguishing between people and aliens disguised as humans, and incidentally provided the identification machine, before innocently withdrawing from the dispute.
What evil intentions could they possibly have? They simply want to help all of us, as fellow human beings, see the true nature of alien races and their lackeys.
Although some people in Donggu were entangled with the alien races, most of the lower or middle classes loathed the Zerg to the point of disgust, whether it was the atrocities committed in the underwater laboratory or the experiments they conducted on humans.
They didn't just dislike them, they hated them. And then they were told that while they were fighting the enemy at the front, some of them actually knelt down? How could they tolerate that?
Beisha and Donggu were in complete chaos, with some even attacking and killing the Zerg before being hunted down. At this critical moment, Lu Yize asked Chen Mingzhang to step forward and protect these people with a resolute attitude, vowing to sever all ties with the alien race.
Chen Mingzhang instantly won the favor of many people. He reassured these strong people who hated the alien race. Their hatred for zombies, alien beasts and sea monsters was not as strong as their hatred for the alien race. They would rather join this Nanling base with zombies than collude with the insectoid race.
Fan Jian's parents and Xian Wenrui's parents also came with these people. In fact, Xian Wenrui had wanted to bring his family over for a long time, but he had not been able to find a good opportunity.
It wasn't until this incident, when they stirred up trouble in Beisha and Donggu and took the opportunity to poach people, that they finally managed to bring them over.
However, Lu Yize wasn't stupid. Before they entered the base, he had Jiang Yue conduct mental probing on each of them unintentionally. With Lu Yize's mental strength assisting her, Jiang Yue actually managed to find one or two people with impure intentions.
Joining the Nanling Base is no problem, but first, you can't collude with other races, and second, you can't commit any crimes. Killing people in the apocalypse is not unusual, but if you kill innocent people not to protect yourself, then you can't enter the Nanling Base.
These two people who were exposed are very strong, both of them are at the fourth level, and they do indeed deeply hate the alien races, but what they did was no better than what the alien races did.
They are somewhat similar to Morse, both being influenced by supernatural powers that amplify their desires. However, their methods differ from Morse's; they do not adhere to mutual consent and simply use women to satisfy their lust whenever they desire.
No matter who the other person is or how old they are, once they set their sights on someone, there is no escape.
In their eyes, there are only the strong and a bunch of people who should serve them, and they don't think they have any problems at all.
They wouldn't target female superhumans with high-level abilities or strong skills, but they would arbitrarily bully and harm women who were weak and had no backing, and there have even been instances where they strangled people to death during their actions.
Guilt? No, they just think the weak are weak, that they die so easily.
They love beautiful women, but because they know about Lu Yize and Jiang Yue's relationship and Jiang Yue's strength, they can remain calm and control their gaze when facing Jiang Yue, preventing their eyes from wandering.
But when they look at ordinary people, their eyes are like those of people looking at disposable toys that can be treated casually.
