Mou Xuan stood in the alliance's command center with a gloomy face.
He knew that the hidden food reserves could only provide a temporary solution.
If we want to survive for a long time in this apocalypse, we must find a new source of food.
He summoned the experienced wilderness hunter Liu and the agricultural technician Zhang who was researching agricultural technology within the alliance, and prepared to go to the wilderness again to find new sources of food.
"Liu Huang, you lead the way this time, and pay special attention to avoiding dangerous areas." Mou Xuan's tone was firm, and his eyes revealed unquestionable determination.
Liu the Wilderness Hunter nodded in agreement, his eyes full of confidence.
Although the wilderness is full of unknown dangers, he is one of the few in the alliance who can find food in this ruin.
Agricultural technician Zhang was sorting his tool kit with a serious look on his face.
"Lao Zhang, your task is to find plants that can be cultivated. This time we can no longer rely on the hidden food." Mou Xuan continued, his eyes firm and cold.
Agricultural technician Zhang nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will do my best."
Chen Yao stood aside, her expression complicated.
She was worried that there might be unexpected consequences in this operation, but she trusted Mou Xuan's decision more.
She followed the crowd silently, praying for a safe return.
The group set off, with Wilderness Hunter Liu leading the way, skillfully avoiding dangerous areas.
In the wilderness, dilapidated buildings and withered plants can be seen everywhere, and the air is filled with a faint smell of decay.
Grain transporter Zhou followed closely beside agricultural technician Zhang, holding a small iron box in his hand, ready to store the precious seeds they found at any time.
After a difficult journey, they finally arrived at an area that seemed relatively safe.
Agricultural technician Zhang stopped and carefully observed the plants around him.
His eyes were suddenly attracted by a plant full of fruits.
"Lao Zhang, have you seen this thing?" Wilderness Hunter Liu walked forward and asked, pointing at the plant.
Agricultural technician Zhang squatted down and observed the plant carefully.
The fruit has a smooth surface and bright colors, and it really looks tempting.
He gently picked a fruit and held it in his hand to examine it carefully.
"This thing looks edible, but we need to make a preliminary judgment first." Agricultural technician Zhang said, taking out a small knife, carefully cutting open the fruit, and smelling the flesh inside. "It smells good, and there is no peculiar smell. The preliminary judgment is that it should be edible."
Wilderness Hunter Liu nodded, quickly collected some fruits and seeds, and handed them over to grain transporter Zhou for safekeeping.
Grain transporter Zhou carefully placed these precious seeds into an iron box, wrapped it with cloth, and placed it at the innermost part of his backpack.
"Old Zhang, do you think this plant has the potential to be cultivated?" Mou Xuan walked up to agricultural technician Zhang and asked.
Agricultural technician Zhang looked up with a hint of excitement in his eyes: "It has great potential. The fruit of this plant is not only delicious, but also seems to have a short growth cycle and strong adaptability. If we can plant it on a large scale, it may solve a big problem."
Mou Xuan nodded, and the anxiety in his heart was slightly relieved.
He looked around and found that the terrain in this area was relatively flat and the soil looked fertile.
A plan gradually formed in his mind.
"Liu Huang, take your men to continue searching around to see if there are more of these plants. Lao Zhang, let's study this piece of land together to see if we can build a temporary planting base here."
Wilderness Hunter Liu took the order and started searching nearby with a few people.
Agricultural technician Zhang and Mou Xuan carefully observed the soil and hydrological conditions of the land.
They found that this area not only had fertile soil, but also abundant groundwater, making it very suitable for planting.
"Boss Mou, this place is really great. If we can grow this plant here, all alliance members can eat fresh fruits." Agricultural technician Zhang said excitedly.
Mou Xuan smiled and became more determined in his plan.
He turned to look at Chen Yao, and her expression became much more relaxed.
He knew that this action might bring new hope to the alliance.
However, just as they were about to pack up and return, Wilderness Hunter Liu suddenly raised his hand and signaled everyone to stop.
He closed his eyes and concentrated, as if he was feeling something.
"Everyone be careful, I feel something is wrong around here." Liu the Wilderness Hunter whispered, with a hint of nervousness in his voice.
Everyone immediately became alert. Mou Xuan quickly looked around but did not find anything obviously unusual.
At this moment, Wilderness Hunter Liu suddenly pointed to a bush in front of him with a hint of fear in his eyes.
"Something's moving over there!"
Mou Xuan's heart tightened. He quickly took out his weapon and looked at the bushes vigilantly.
He felt an invisible danger approaching.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the bushes made a rustling sound, as if something was moving through them.
"Be careful, don't act rashly." Mou Xuan ordered in a low voice, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, fixed on the bushes.
At this moment, a shadow suddenly flashed from the bushes. Mou Xuan's eyes focused and the gun in his hand was aimed in that direction.
He took a deep breath, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.
However, at this moment, he suddenly felt a chill coming from behind him, as if a pair of eyes were staring at them in the dark.
A chill, like a snake, crawled up Mou Xuan's spine.
