It must be said that what this leader said makes sense.
However, the three of them could not accept eating the flesh and blood of their own kind.
Ye Ling, Wen Yanchen, and the other two looked very grim. First, they couldn't accept this; second, they were powerless to refute it; and third, they felt helpless.
Even if all the food in the space were taken out, it wouldn't solve the major problem currently facing the Nanli base.
Seeing that the three men looked grim and remained silent, their imposing manner had also diminished, leader Zhou Li sighed and pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. There were only two cigarettes left in it.
He hesitated for a moment, then asked Wen Yanchen and the others, "Shall we smoke?"
You Ziming and Wen Yanchen both shook their heads: "We don't smoke."
"It's good not to smoke, otherwise, in this environment, it's really painful to have a craving for cigarettes."
Zhou Li smiled wryly, took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep breath, and slowly said, "Some people in the base have already guessed what the food we provide every day is made of. They were very angry at first and came to me every day to make a scene."
Some couldn't bear it and went out to find food, but they never returned. The truth couldn't be hidden forever; more and more survivors learned about the food shortage.
But they did try to solve the problem, even considering escape, because this place was a giant hell, and no one knew if they would be the next to be eaten.
He looked at Ye Ling: "Miss Ye, I'm also a member of the organization, and my heart is with the Party. I don't want to do this either. But I really have no other choice now. Transportation is completely paralyzed, medical care is paralyzed, and communications are almost completely paralyzed."
We couldn't get in touch with the organization before, but after finally managing to do so, the organization told us to find our own way to overcome the difficulties, and that they would send someone over as soon as possible.
But as we all know, neither trucks nor trains, nor shipping or water transport, can operate. The word "wait" has no end.
Perhaps we'll wait for someone from the organization to come later, but by then, our base may have been completely wiped out. Without external support, we can only rely on ourselves.
"So, Miss Ye, on behalf of over a million people in the base, I implore you to stay a few more days and use your mental power to help us find the supplies buried underground."
"sorry."
Ye Ling suddenly apologized, and Zhou Li was slightly taken aback, thinking that she was rejecting him.
Ye Ling clenched her fist and looked at Zhou Li earnestly, saying, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you just now. I'll stay for two days to help you search for the supplies buried underground."
Please arrange for a few capable and influential comrades to gather and come out with me at 7:00 AM. I will take care of their safety; their job is simply to mark the locations they find. Afterward, you can gradually transport the supplies back.”
Zhou Li was overjoyed. He quickly stood up and went to Ye Ling, grasping her hand firmly: "Thank you so much, Miss Ye, for your help. Don't worry, all of us will cooperate fully with you."
Ye Ling is a woman of action; once she made up her mind about it, she immediately took action.
She used her divine sense to locate Ye Jinyan and the others, and then brought Wen Yanchen and the others to join them.
After she explained the situation to Ye Jinyan and the others, they naturally cooperated with her.
After the group had eaten and drunk their fill, they led their men out to search for supplies overnight.
After they left the base, Qi Yun and Gong Quan appeared at the base entrance.
Gong Quan looked at the helicopter in the sky and said to Qi Yun, "The people who came today are no ordinary individuals. Perhaps we can gain unexpected benefits by starting with them. Qi Yun, do you want to cooperate?"
"Not interested."
Qi Yuncai didn't want to cooperate with these people; they were all hypocrites. It would be better to be friends with Wen Yanchen and his group than to cooperate with them.
Gong Quan: "...Don't forget, we're from the same place. Even though a disaster has struck here, we can't let our guard down. Only through cooperation can we achieve a win-win situation."
Qi Yun turned and walked into the base: "Win-win? Are you sure? I'm sleepy, go back to sleep."
Gong Quan: "......"
Sleepy?
This person is so lazy they can't even be bothered with a perfunctory response; they're worse than a rock in a cesspool.

In peacetime, the nights are when the people of Nanjing University of Science and Technology (NUST) are happiest.
Night markets are everywhere, with countless kinds of snacks, colorful night lights, the fragrance of flowers filling the streets, and laughter making every visitor reluctant to leave.
This is paradise on earth; its scenery and food are both things people yearn for.
But now, everything has been destroyed by natural disasters.
Sitting in the helicopter, Captain Wu sighed heavily again: "Everything is ruined, everything is gone. This place used to be brightly lit and lively at night."
Now, not only is the entire city shrouded in darkness, but all sorts of bizarre creatures are also emerging to devour people. What sins have we committed to deserve such a devastating blow?
You Ziming reminded him, "Think about coastal cities, and you'll feel better."
When Captain Wu heard the name "coastal city," he immediately fell silent.
Well, compared to the entire city disappearing, they've actually done pretty well.
Ye Ling suddenly spoke up: "Let's find a place and go down."
You Ziming quickly piloted the helicopter to the underground location Ye Ling had mentioned.
Ye Ling reminded everyone, "There's a mutated elephant feeding down there. It's ten meters tall and has a terrible temper, so try not to provoke it. I'll take Captain Wu and Mr. Wen down there in a bit. Once Captain Wu is down there, don't speak or turn on your flashlight."
"Okay, I'll follow Miss Ye's arrangements."
Ye Ling looked at Wen Yanchen: "If it discovers you, you should block it."
Wen Yanchen hummed in agreement: "Leave it to me."
As soon as the three of them arrived on the ground, Captain Wu heard chewing sounds, which were truly terrifying in the darkness.
However, he still followed Ye Ling closely, silently memorizing the directions in his mind.
