The sand dunes have been cleared up.
There were a total of 121 people in the dunes. Thirteen of them would be quarantined if they went out, leaving 48 men, 37 women, 12 children, and 11 elderly people.
However, a high percentage of them are superhumans. When they left the Vermilion Bird Base with the old leader, the team consisted of elites, and almost all of their successors activated their superhuman abilities. Therefore, there are a total of eighty-four superhumans.
Unfortunately, the sand dune environment is not as good as the base, which limits the development of these superhumans. Most of them are at level two or three, with only a few slightly higher, including two at level four and one at level five.
In addition, there are fewer elderly people, children, and women than men in the sand dunes, not because the dunes are sexist or mistreat the elderly and children.
The main reason is the harsh environment. Women are born with weaker constitutions than men, resulting in a slightly lower survival rate. The same applies to the elderly and children.
This is the result of breaking away from the base and establishing one's own independent entity, without the ability to operate a secure base. The people within the territory will live worse and worse generations until this force is completely destroyed.
Fortunately, the old lord was a wise man. Knowing that he could not lead Dune to regain its former glory, he began to make plans early on and prepared to join other forces.
The appearance of Fang Qingdai and the others was the best outcome; otherwise, the old lord might have continued to delay due to dissatisfaction with various issues in the other major bases, until the Vermilion Bird's extermination took place.
The relocation of the sand dunes en masse is bound to be a big commotion, as it's too easy to attract attention.
The old lord sought out Jing Yi and Fang Qingdai to discuss the process of leaving.
"Otherwise, we can leave in batches, three to five batches, and transport the supplies separately as well."
Fang Qingdai waved her hand: "No need, gather the things and people together, I'll handle it."
With Fang Qingdai around, it wouldn't be difficult for anyone to quietly take away the people from the sand dunes.
Previously, when we were in the base, I was worried that the size of the space would expose too much, so I always hid things and carefully planned what supplies to bring when I went out.
But is it still necessary now?
She doesn't need to report the actual size of her space to anyone, allowing others to speculate freely. Her unpredictable strength also increases the Oasis Base's leverage, deterring those with ulterior motives from taking any action.
But when they watched Fang Qingdai put more than a hundred people and a mountain of miscellaneous supplies into her space, not only were the people of Sand Dune astonished, but even Xiao Mao and the others stared wide-eyed!
"Wow, sis, your space-based ability has leveled up?"
Xiao Mao's face flushed with excitement. He analyzed to himself, "No! Your wood-type ability must have leveled up too. Little Vine is so big, a level 5 ability user definitely can't control it!"
"Sis, what's your current strength? Level six? Level seven?"
Fang Qingdai smiled mysteriously, avoiding a direct answer, leaving Xiao Mao's curiosity burning!
After Xiao Mao mentioned it, everyone remembered the changes in Xiao Teng.
I didn’t realize it until I was with him every day, but now that I think back, I realize that he has grown up so fast!
At the Oasis Base, it liked to hang on the pillars of the palace when it had nothing to do. Occasionally, when team members went to find Fang Qingdai, they would see such a big thing and think that a giant python had invaded!
Just a few days ago, that guy was so big that there weren't enough pillars for him to stand on, so he had to move to the roof and hang there. From a distance, he looked huge and thick, and the sense of oppression was overwhelming!
Can the killer vine grow that big?
The Killer Vine is troublesome but has obvious weaknesses, and it is rare to see a wood-type ability user contracting the Killer Vine.
Therefore, no one knows just how far a carefully cultivated Killer Ivy can grow!
The only thing that can be confirmed is that its owner must be exceptionally powerful, otherwise, their supernatural abilities would not be sufficient to sustain and control such a large thing!
The way everyone looked at Fang Qingdai changed again and again, and the awe in their eyes grew stronger and stronger. Fang Qingdai glanced at them sideways, and everyone lowered their heads under her gaze.
This is respect and submission to the strong.
Fang Qingdai offered no explanation, and unable to explain, she could only feign indifference and say, "Alright, let's retreat."
Fang Qingdai and her group arrived and left quietly.
The day they returned to the base, the base immediately became busy.
Assigning tasks to the new recruits, and once they've settled in, the Oasis base is visibly changing every day.
Xiao Mao regularly sends one or two people over every week, always smuggling them over under the pretext of "dying in battle" on a mission.
With a larger population, Fang Qingdai will be very busy.
She and Jingyi spent every day checking for and filling gaps in the base's infrastructure. They would select suitable personnel to form the necessary departments, allocate funds and materials, and help them find the equipment they needed.
What pleased Fang Qingdai the most was the mechanical manufacturing team at the Oasis Base. They could build most conventional vehicles and machinery on their own, and even if they had never seen anything like it before, they could figure it out from a blueprint.
Thanks to the library, they even consulted materials and independently researched tractors, automated harvesting equipment, and automatic watering systems, among other things.
Their efforts have brought great convenience to agriculture.
One year after the establishment of the Oasis Base, its wheat cultivation has reached 500 mu!
It was all thanks to Zhang Xin leading the team in seedling cultivation and seed preservation, and using her supernatural abilities to accelerate growth, that they were able to achieve such results within a year!
Looking at the vast golden wheat fields, Fang Qingdai's fingers trembled slightly with excitement.
"Mom, thank you for your hard work!" She pulled Zhang Xin and said with deep emotion. From a plant specimen to hundreds of acres of fertile land, Zhang Xin had practically slept in the fields all year to achieve what she has today.
Zhang Xin had checked the data and found that the highest wheat yield per mu in the 21st century was more than 1,600 jin. Fang Qingdai told her that it was the result of a combination of good land, good seeds, good timing, and good methods.
Since they were new to wheat cultivation, they didn't need to pursue the high yields recorded in the records; a stable harvest would be enough.
But Zhang Xin wouldn't listen. The seeds had been improved by Fang Qingdai's space, and with the wood-type ability user's affinity for plants, in addition to watering and fertilizing, the wood-type ability user also increased the plant's vitality. Why couldn't she cultivate high-yield crops?
Through her tireless research and improvement efforts, she actually managed to increase the yield of these wheat acreage to over 1,300 jin!
Although it didn't break the record, it's still an excellent statistic!
In other words, this batch of 500 mu of wheat will yield 650,000 jin of grain!
Those with superpowers consume a lot of food. Even if each person consumes two kilograms of food per day, the three hundred or so people at the Oasis base would only consume about two hundred thousand kilograms of food per year.
These 500 acres alone are enough to sustain the oasis base!
This means that Fang Qingdai and the others no longer need Xiao Mao and the others to work hard to collect supplies and spend a lot of money to purchase daily necessities. They can now be completely self-sufficient!
Fang Qingdai was so excited she almost cried. She immediately announced, "Tomorrow, all departments at the Oasis Base will suspend work and everyone will harvest the wheat together!"
Fang Qingdai immediately notified Mao Yun to lead a team to capture a batch of beasts with decent meat quality to purify and prepare for future use. They were waiting for the harvest tomorrow so that the Oasis Base could hold a harvest celebration!
