The problem was serious. The three bases quickly contacted each other by phone and each sent people to investigate. The result was horrifying.

So, Old E, Old M, and the Russians, who usually don't get along in this post-apocalyptic world, actually got together to discuss things for the first time ever.

The meeting resulted in a high degree of consensus, and action was quickly taken.

The three parties collaborated to lay a tight net around their temporary platform, 500 nautical miles away, to search for the party responsible for the incident.

Bai Shuang and her group had already moved beyond their search area.

Actually, the most brilliant thing we did when sweeping through those three temporary bases was to knock them all unconscious instantly and leave no survivors.

If even one fish escaped the net and alerted their backyard, they would be unable to seize the crude oil.

No matter how capable they were, together with the Babylonians, they were only ten people. How could they possibly defeat an army of three?

Besides, it takes so long to collect the oil.

After encountering the Xibi border army, Bai Shuang and her group did not linger and headed directly to the Huaxia base.

To avoid any unforeseen complications, we should try our best to keep them from knowing that the Chinese had been here, and to make the three parties believe that the Babylonians' oil had not yet been taken away.

It's been over twenty days since I left. I wonder how things are at the base? I wonder if my grandfather and uncles have returned yet?

After walking about halfway, Bai Shuang and her group encountered the submarine house again. This was a division under Lu Yu's command, commanded by Division Commander Ning.

Compared to other military camps, Lu Yu's troops had a surplus of food supplies, thanks to Bai Shuang's private assistance before the storm, which meant they had enough for six months longer than other military camps.

So, at least we still have some food.

Now that they've encountered this, Bai Shuang naturally wants to make up for what they're missing.

Now that one ship has become three, their momentum is formidable, and they no longer need to fear any power.

It was already mid-August when we returned to the base.

The area outside the Huaxia base was still flooded, and the water had not yet receded from the designated area. Many foreigners were still gathered outside, eagerly waiting.

Deputy Commander Zhu, Commander Wang, and Mr. Hong were already waiting outside the entrance by boat. After exchanging military salutes, Deputy Commander Zhu asked with a smile, "Was it smooth sailing?"

Lu Yu nodded. "It's alright."

No explanation is needed; everyone understands what it means.

Bai Shuang: "Have Grandpa and the others returned?"

Commander Wang's eyes darkened. "Not yet. Don't be sad. The old commanders and the others must be on their way back."

Just as Bai Shuang and the others were about to go inside, they turned their heads and saw a few people on a fishing boat who looked somewhat familiar.

She said to Lu Yu, "Look at those people."

Bai Jiu and the others also turned their heads to look.

Lu Yu: "It's a bit like Jasel (an international arms dealer; he helped with the arms stockpiled before the White Frost disaster) and Benson."

Bai Shuang: "These two are alright. If Jasser has enough weapons, we can accept them."

These arms dealers are extremely knowledgeable about weapons, which will definitely be useful for future weapons manufacturing and development.

Lu Yu knew that his wife was up to something again, trying to get her hands on weapons.

So he had someone call them over, which surprised Jasser.

There were so many foreigners, why did the Chinese only call them "them"? But then he thought about it and realized he hadn't done anything wrong, so he followed the soldier and rowed the boat over.

When they got closer and saw Bai Shuang and Lu Yu, their eyes widened instantly.

"Miss Bai, Mr. Lu!"

When Lu Yu and Bai Shuang went to the Kingdom of Wanta to hoard jade, they were not allowed to wear military uniforms (otherwise it would cause an international dispute).

Therefore, they didn't know Lu Yu was a soldier before, so they were naturally surprised when they saw him in his general's uniform.

However, it has nothing to do with them; on the contrary, it might be able to help them now.

Bai Shuang: "Do you want to become Chinese?"

Jasel nodded. "I wonder if Miss Bai and General Lu can help us?"

Lu Yu: "Old M's base is pretty good too, why don't you guys go there?"

Jasel shook his head, "The China base is the best in the whole world."

I wonder if Mr. Mike is doing well?

He was a friend of Uncle Mike. They came here hoping to find Mr. Mike and get him to help them get in.

Bai Shuang: "My martial uncle hasn't returned yet."

At this moment, Deputy Chief Zhu and the others looked over. Not wanting to take up everyone's time, Bai Shuang asked directly.

Do you still have any weapons?

Only foreigners with exceptional contributions are allowed into our base. If you have any more, we can discuss this.

Jasser: "How much weaponry do you need to get in?"

The fact that he asked that question means there are still some left.

Bai Shuang looked at Lu Yu.

Lu Yu: "How many do you have?"

Jasel: "At the beginning, we had a lot saved up, but now there's not much left. I can't say exactly what's left; we need to take stock."

Lu Yu: "Then you should hurry up and take stock, and we'll contact you again later."

Then, Bai Shuang and the others returned to the base.

Let the two Babylonians go back first.

"Tell your leader that we will talk to him about oil in two days."

Bai Shuang and Lu Yu took a general look at the situation at the base and checked their respective responsibilities. It seemed that there were no major oversights.

I'm relieved that the base has been operating normally even though I've been away for over a month.

I plan to rest for two days before returning to work.

Although we still live in submarine cabins, it feels more secure, safe, and comfortable at our own base.

The submarine cabin retracts its outer shell, transforming into a house and instantly becoming bright.

At lunchtime, with no outsiders around and no more bouncing in the water, Bai Shuang and her eight companions prepared a delicious meal.
