This plan sounds perfect, but it faces a huge challenge in its implementation - shortage of resources.
The land resource dispatcher reported to Mou Xuan the material reserve situation of the base, and the situation was not optimistic.
Due to being surrounded by mutant plants for a long time, the base's resources have been consumed at a huge cost, and the supply lines from the outside world are often cut off, resulting in a serious shortage of various materials within the base.
"Captain, the steel we have in stock is only enough to build one line of defense, and the energy is only enough to keep the high-voltage power grid and flamethrowers running for a week." The land resource dispatcher's tone was full of worry.
Mou Xuan frowned, he knew what this meant.
If they can't find new resources quickly, their defenses will be useless and the base will be in danger again.
Botanist Gao suggested: "We can send a team to look for resources further away. There used to be a large steel plant there, so there should be a lot of usable materials."
Qin, a mutant plant researcher, added: "But it's also more dangerous there. According to our detection, the mutant plants there are more powerful and their species are more complex."
Mou Xuan fell into deep thought.

He looked around, at the busy people in the base and at the injured comrades, and a strong sense of responsibility surged in his heart.
He knew that he was the hope of this base and he had to lead everyone to survive.
As night fell, the base was shrouded in a tense atmosphere.
Maintenance robots are busy repairing the damaged fortifications, while medical robots are carefully caring for the wounded.
Mou Xuan stood on the high wall of the base, looking into the distance.
In the darkness, the mutated plants emitted a strange fluorescent light, as if they were ferocious beasts lurking in the dark, ready to attack at any time.
He looked down at the bare land near the base. He knew that it was urgent to build a solid defense line...
