Chapter 282 Eager to Try

News of Dawn Base's plan to expand its recruitment is spreading rapidly.

Some superhumans willing to take the gamble came from all over the country, waiting to participate in the selection.

However, most people with stable lives who have superpowers are unwilling to accept the offer because the number of openings is too small—only one hundred—making the chances too low.

If we recruited several thousand or ten thousand people, I estimate that even more people with superpowers would be willing to gamble on the odds.

In this day and age, people with superpowers are doing quite well. Many of them rely on bases, which provides them and their families with a stable guarantee.

Many people wouldn't leave their families and stable lives for such a small probability.

Even so, many people from all over the country, as well as those with superpowers from Shangguan City and the surrounding areas, came to the scene.

Now even ordinary people in Shangguan City are eager to try.

Anyone with the skills can apply for an interview and see if they can join the Dawn Base.

In an instant, most of the feelings of envy, jealousy, and fear towards the Dawn Base that Shangguan City had felt before disappeared, replaced by high spirits and excitement.

Upon hearing this news, Ye Sangyu immediately went to find Ye Conglei and asked, "Sister, is the base going to expand its recruitment? What about the Dawn Squad? I want to join the Dawn Squad."

Ye Sangyu sat in her office processing various documents, looking at the chattering people in front of her, and felt a headache coming on. "Whether you can join the Dawn Squad or not, you shouldn't be asking me that; you should ask your dad, and then you should ask the base commander."

This recruitment only includes ordinary members of the Dawn Base, directly under the base commander of the Dawn Squad.

Ye Sangyu scratched her head in disappointment, then remembered, "My dad and your dad said they were coming to see us. Judging by the time, they should be arriving soon."

Ye Conglei looked up. "Are they sure they're here to see us?"

Ye Sangyu shrugged. "That's what they say anyway."

At that moment, a group of off-road vehicles were driving towards them from outside the base.

Sitting in the back of the middle vehicle, Ye Lishan and Ye Lichuan couldn't suppress their smiles as they watched the Dawn Base getting closer and closer.

Ye Lishan laughed and said, "Brother, last time I asked Cong Lei about the situation at the Dawn Base, you wouldn't tell me. Were you afraid that I would also know about this good place? Now it's all over the internet, and you can't hide it anymore. You know to bring me here to see it."

Ye Lichuan chuckled, "Back then, the Dawn Base was in Haicheng, so far away. What difference would it make if I told you? It's different now. The Dawn Base has moved to Shangguan City. Our cities are right next to each other, so it's much closer now."

Ye Lishan had been worried about his daughter, Ye Conglei, who was staying at the small base outside, living like a caveman and not coming home.

Now it seems he worried for nothing; who would want to leave such a wonderful place?

He didn't plan to return to Ye Sheng's base this time.

Ye Lishan said earnestly, "You built the Ye Sheng Base single-handedly, so we're counting on you from now on."

Ye Lichuan: !!!

"What do you mean? You're not planning to go back? Don't even think about it. You have to go back. That's such a big base. I'm waiting for you to share the burden with me. We agreed that we were just here to see our daughter and that we would go back. If you don't go back, I'll have someone tie you up and take you back. Do you believe me?"

He was afraid that his older brother would want to come and enjoy a life of leisure after finding out about the good places at Dawn Base, which was why he had kept it a secret from him.

Looking back now, his guess was absolutely right.

The convoy stopped on a quiet patch of ground, and a group of superhumans got out and surrounded the two of them, protecting them closely.

The two of them are the people in charge of Yesheng Base, which is a large base.

People with all sorts of ulterior motives are watching them, so they naturally have to be careful when they go out.

The people queuing to sell their goods glanced at them indifferently and continued with their own business.

People who come here carrying crystal cores and supplies usually make quite a fuss, and they gradually get used to it.

Ye Lichuan instructed the people around him, "Go and see, and do things according to their rules."

They brought supplies with them this time, intending to exchange some things. Since everyone else was queuing up, they couldn't easily use connections.

Lin Jingsong quickly replied, "Yes, base commander, we'll take care of it."

The two of them walked past the line and headed towards the sales building.

Ye Lishan smacked his lips and said, "Oh my, what a great place! Look at the tractors in the field, busy harvesting sweet potatoes. The sweet potato leaves are delicious when stir-fried. There are so many people coming to trade outside. It's truly a thriving place."

Elsewhere, all you see is despair and death.

Here, one can see vibrant life and hope.

The hearts that had been suppressed for so long by the cruel apocalypse suddenly felt much more open and free.

Ma Jiandong sat on a chair outside, staring intently at the two of them. "What are you doing? You're queuing to buy something."

To maintain order, several members of the Dawn Squad took turns guarding the area to prevent any disturbances.

Instead of the troublemakers, we saw these two people looking around like tourists, even taking out their phones to take pictures.

It swaggered towards me with an air of nonchalance.

Ye Lishan smiled and said, "Hello, we are Ye Conglei and Ye Sangyu's father. We are from Ye Sheng Base and came to see them. We wonder if we can come in?"

As he said this, it seemed as if flames were leaping in his eyes.

Going inside would be wonderful! I can't even imagine how blissful it would be to have a close encounter with the lush plants.

Ma Jiandong understood. "Oh, it's you guys. Ye Conglei seemed to have mentioned that her family members were coming. Wait a moment, I'll call them and have them come pick you up."

Ye Lishan nodded, "Okay, thank you for your help."

After speaking, his gaze drifted to the sweet potato field next to him, and he couldn't take his eyes off the vibrant green leaves.

It's been so long since I've seen plants growing so vigorously and unrestrainedly; I always feel a strange attraction to them.

Ma Jiandong called Ye Conglei, and soon Ye Conglei arrived with Ye Sangyu in their car.

Both were overjoyed to see their father.

Ye Conglei smiled and said, "Dad, you arrived so quickly?"

When Ye Lishan saw his daughter, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, she was still as graceful as ever and didn't seem to have suffered much, and he was finally relieved.

"You silly girl, I called you so many times before but you wouldn't come back. I thought you were starving and sleeping poorly out there. Who would have thought you were living such a good life without even telling me? You made me worry for nothing."

Ye Conglei chuckled and said, "Without the base commander's permission, how could we dare to reveal the base's situation so casually? Come on, let's go in and take a look."

She had just reported their information to Lei Zhe, and Lei Zhe granted them access.
