Chapter 247 Accidentally Entering the Imperial Household?

Tao Yarong then called to her people, "Zhang Qiang, you take some people and prepare a big pot of food. After they've eaten their fill, lead them to work together to build the house."

Now the fields are ready for a new round of planting, and all the manpower is on building houses.

With the help of this group of people, the speed can be even faster.

"Okay, got it." Zhang Qiang replied, calling to the men and women to cook.

Zhang Qiang, who is missing an arm and an ear, has difficulty working, so he has become the logistics manager. He is in charge of preparing meals and tidying up supplies.

He is also a hard worker. Knowing that he is a burden, he is always the first to rush to do any work that he can do, and people have a good impression of him.

The group of survivors brought by Yang Wen emerged from the tightly sealed carriage and were immediately struck by the sight before them. They were so frightened that they stood frozen in place, their faces filled with terror and shock.

"Where...where is this? Ye Sheng Base? Did I accidentally wander into the Tian family's territory?"

"My God, this is such a huge field! Isn't this the end of the world? How can we still farm? Is the end of the world just a dream?"

"It's not a dream at all. The acid rain is still falling outside. It couldn't be more real. We're not going to live here in the future, are we? That would be so wonderful."

As they were envisioning a bright future, they heard Yang Wen's frustrated voice rang out, "This is Dawn Base, not Ye Sheng Base. Don't wander around or step on anything. Wait for instructions."

After we finish eating, we'll help with the construction. When the ability users from Ye Sheng Base are about to leave, we'll go with them to Ye Sheng Base.

Everyone: !!!

A bolt from the blue, a thunderclap right above my head.

"What? Such a nice place, and we're not staying here?"

"Isn't this Ye Sheng Base? The people who live here are so lucky!"

Now they're feeling down too. The thought of staying in such a nice place for only two days makes them feel terrible.

Yang Wen was filled with regret. She really wanted to ask Meng Shiwan if it was too late to join the Dawn Base. But then she remembered what Meng Shiwan had said before: don't regret joining the Ye Sheng Base, because the Dawn Base wouldn't accept you if you wanted to join again.

What I initially took for granted now seems quite profound upon reflection.

Meng Shiwan had already guessed they would regret it, so she directly blocked their escape route.

Since it's not the first choice, there's no need to make it the second choice either.

Since arriving at the farm, Ye Sangyu has been talking non-stop.

What happened to the promised small base where everyone was a farmer? Turns out they're actually farming here.

So sunflowers were supposed to be grown using wood-based superpowers? Turns out they can actually be grown outdoors too.

I thought Meng Shiwan was already pretty awesome, but after coming to the base, I found out that the base is even more awesome.

She followed Meng Shiwan like a little tail, "Sister, how did you manage to build this base? Why doesn't it rain acid rain here? Why is it perfect for farming here? Why is the climate here just right? Why?"

Why is there not a trace of the apocalypse here? And such a large expanse of farmland—how can it be located on a mountain? There shouldn't be such a large area on a mountaintop, right? This doesn't make sense, sister. Can you explain it to me? I'm really curious.”

Her naturally talkative mouth now unleashed a long string of questions, leaving Meng Shiwan's head buzzing.

She said helplessly, "This is a space, my space. It can be extended to other areas after reaching a certain level. To be precise, this place does not belong to the real world. It is just superimposed on the real world, which is why you see it now. Do you understand?"

Having received the answer, Ye Sangyu stopped following Meng Shiwan and stood there looking at the distant fields, marveling, "Wow, a level seven ability user is terrifying."

She knew it! How could a base built by someone as capable as Meng Shiwan be anything but ordinary?

Now we see, the base is even more awesome.

Ye Sangyu shouted at the top of her lungs, "Sister, can I take a video to show my dad?"

Meng Shiwan waved her hand, "Whatever, whatever."

Her abilities and her base were never hidden, but everything was too incredible. The people in the base felt like they had found a treasure, and fearing that others would covet them, they were all very conscious of their privacy and no one took pictures to show off online.

They were all secretly delighted.

With Meng Shiwan's approval, Ye Sangyu made a video call to her father.

The first thing Ye Lichuan did when the video call connected was to yell at her, "Didn't you hang up on me? Why are you calling me again? Let me tell you, I won't agree to this. Don't even think about it. You'd better get back here right now."

Ye Sangyu didn't refute, but instead turned the camera around and pointed it at the fields outside, saying, "Dad, look carefully before you speak."

"Look, what am I looking at? My eyes aren't playing tricks on me..."

He stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence, leaning his head close to the screen in disbelief, leaving Ye Sangyu with her two big, round eyes.

"Farmland? Farmland with green plants? And a pond, lotus flowers? Orchards with fruit trees? Where is this? Where did you go? Did you put up this big screen to fool me?"

From Ye Sangyu's vantage point, she could see the distant freshwater pond and the small courtyard planted by Meng Shiwan, a vibrant green that seemed out of place in this desolate world.

Hearing Ye Lichuan say that, she angrily walked to the edge of the ground, grabbed a handful of soil, and then pointed the camera at the small green plants on the ground.

"Why would I lie to you? It's true, it's true. This is Dawn Base. My cousin was right, this place is really, really good."

"With fields, crops, and life, this is the normal world. I want to join the Dawn Squad, I want to live here, and I don't want to go back."

Ye Lichuan: ...

This time, instead of urging Ye Sangyu to go back, he remained silent.

The world is so desolate now, it's truly despairing. If Dawn Base were really that good, and we could really live like before the apocalypse, perhaps that wouldn't be so bad.

Without having to face this dark and gray world, suppressing one's inner feelings to some extent, one can live like a normal person.

He asked, "What do you do if you join the Dawn Squad? Did they say?"

Seeing that her father's attitude had softened, Ye Sangyu smiled and said, "It's pretty much the same as our base, just going on missions, collecting supplies, developing the base, and so on. There are cheap ability enhancement fluids here, and the ability users at the base are all very strong, so there won't be any danger. I think this place is great."

Meng Shiwan told her that joining the Dawn Squad would be very dangerous, and she didn't dare to say a word of it to Ye Lichuan.

If I told them, I definitely wouldn't let her stay here.
