"Where's Xie Bin?" Li Xue asked.

Everyone's faces suddenly changed.

Li Xue saw this and knew something was wrong, so she asked, "What happened?"

Hu Zi said with some anger and a bit of shame on his face, "Xiao Xue, I'm sorry, we were careless, and that bastard Xie Bin escaped."

"Escaped?" Li Xue was a little surprised, "What happened? Shouldn't he be locked up in the detention center? How could he escape?" Before she left, she had told them that if Xie Bin wanted to escape from the base, they should lock him up first and deal with him after they returned from the ZY base.

When Hu Zi thought of this, he felt a little embarrassed. They took it for granted that Xie Bin's men had been completely cleared out, and Xie Bin's ability was very limited. It was impossible for him to escape from the Hope Base.

But things were so unexpected. Xie Bin actually had someone else in his hands! And he didn't know what method he used, but he got Xie Bin out of the base without anyone noticing. When they found him, Xie Bin had already run away.

Li Xue didn't know what to say. Since he had already escaped, it was too late to say anything now. And in such weather, it was not realistic to ask the base to send people to catch him.

Xie Bin can't make any big waves anyway, and they have already reached a cooperation with ZY Base. Even if Xie Bin spreads the news about the space, it won't have much impact on her.

Moreover, based on Xie Bin's character and past behavior, it is almost impossible for him to gain a foothold in other bases.

He was able to cause those effects in Hope Base because he had people in his hands. Now there are only a few people around him. If he goes to another base, he can only keep a low profile. After the communication is restored to normal, and the ZY Base issues an official announcement, I'm afraid Xie Bin won't even have a place to stay.

Since Xie Bin is no longer a threat, there is no need for them to focus on him. They have more important things to do.

Li Xue looked at the unhappy faces of the crowd and smiled: "Okay, let's leave it like this for now. Originally, I wanted to hand him over to the ZY base for disposal. Since he ran away, it will save us the trouble later."

Hu Zi was still a little worried: "What if he spreads nonsense everywhere?"

Li Xue smiled indifferently: "I was worried a few days ago, but now, I am not afraid anymore. I even hope he can promote my space. Now that all communications are paralyzed, the outside world does not know about our merger with the ZY base. If Xie Bin recruits people, it will be a good opportunity to announce this to the outside world."

Although Li Xue said this, Hu Zi was still a little worried. Not only him, but other people were also a little worried. After all, Li Xue's space is too tempting for humans. Although they are about to merge with ZY Base, this matter cannot be completed in one or two days. What they are afraid of is that the night is long and dreams are many.

Li Xue saw that everyone was still worried, so she said: "Don't worry, it's okay. ZY Base will send a group of high-level superpowers to guarantee that before the two bases are officially merged, they will stop all those with ulterior motives."

Hearing Li Xue say this, everyone had to put their hearts back in their stomachs for the time being.

One day later, the people of the entire base were officially notified of the merger of Hope Base and ZY Base.

After the people of the base learned about this, their reactions were completely different from those of the people of ZY Base after they knew that the base was going to be relocated.

The people of Hope Base now have a very high sense of superiority. They didn't expect that ZY Base would come to "join" their Hope Base. What does this mean? This means that their Hope Base is now the best base.

As people of Hope Base, they have reason to be proud. And after the merger of Hope Base and ZY Base, the meaning of this is different. Hope Base used to be just a large base recognized by the country. But it will be different from now on. They will be the only base that can represent this country.

Even if their lives will not change at all because of this, and their identities will not change because of this, they still feel that from now on, their status is much higher than those survivors of other bases.

The people of Hope Base have a good acceptance of the relocation of ZY Base. They are also very active in the expansion of the base.

How can they not be active? Those are points that can be exchanged for food and crystal cores!

At the same time as the news was announced, the mission center also began to release a series of tasks related to steelmaking.

Find ores, find steelmaking equipment, and find professional steelmaking technicians. The base's superpowers are eager to try. They haven't been out of the base for a long time. It's just right to take advantage of this time to show their talents.

The site selection work for the new base has also begun. Because the two bases are merged together, the location of the ZY base must be close to the Hope Base. Commander Chen's requirements for the new base are very simple, that is, it must be similar to the terrain of the Hope Base. Because in the face of these natural disasters, only the Hope Base, which is located in the mountains, has not been greatly affected.

Fortunately, Y City is mountainous, and there are mountains all around the Hope Base. It's just that the environment in some places is worse than that of the Hope Base, but those can be improved.

ZY Base currently has several million people, which is several times that of the Hope Base. The area of ​​this base is naturally several times larger than that of the Hope Base.

Now it is frozen everywhere. If you want to break the ice, you have to clean up the newly accumulated snow at any time. This is a very huge project.

Li Xue was not stingy and took out all the energy guns to break the ice. Fearing that the ice-breaking speed was not enough, Li Xue also asked Guo Qing to fly to ZY Base again. A large number of energy guns, crystal cores, and explosives were pulled back from there.

The second batch of relocated personnel also returned with the plane. These personnel are not ordinary survivors. They are all talents needed to build the base, including architectural designers, engineers, and operators of some professional equipment.

Those who migrated from the ZY base first performed well. Because the base was built for them, they did their best.

The entire Hope Base was busy.

Loud explosions could be heard at any time.

Soon, the first hill of the new base was cleared.

At the same time, the first batch of winter wheat sown at the Hope Base also entered the harvest period.
