"Captain, are your injuries healed?"
"Captain, how could you have pushed us into the inner city and stayed behind yourself? We felt so guilty when we saw you being captured by the Level 3 Winged Membrane Monster that we couldn't eat."
Jiang Shenglin quickly promised that it wouldn't happen again.
"Captain, have you been hungry these past few days? This is some compressed biscuit I saved for you, try it." A young team member presented Jiang Shenglin with half a compressed biscuit as if it were a treasure.
Gu Mingyue had finished arranging the meal and turned around to interrupt with a smile: "Young man, you've been worrying for nothing. Haven't you noticed that your captain has gotten quite plump and healthy thanks to our care?"
Then he turned to Xu Lanyue, the leader, and frowned slightly: "You didn't see when your captain first arrived at our base. He was covered in blood, not a single patch of skin was intact, he was half-dead, and his face was pale and bloodless..."
"Ahem." Jiang Shenglin raised his hand and coughed awkwardly. Although what Gu Mingyue said was true, he was not used to using these things to gain other people's sympathy.
Gu Mingyue's passionate speech was not interrupted or stopped by him.
"We delivered his nourishing herbal soups to his room like a flowing stream; medicines are so precious these days!"
Although Xu Lanyue has a buzz cut and looks like a man, she is actually very thoughtful.
"Lord Gu, on behalf of the base and the team members, I thank you for your rescue of our captain."
Seeing her express her gratitude, Gu Mingyue smiled slightly, "Deputy Captain Xu, you're too kind. Before the apocalypse, which member of our Mingyue Base didn't thrive under the care of you soldiers?"
Gu Mingyue patted her affectionately and helped her up: "Haha, I just wanted to do a few more transactions with your Hope Base. I wonder if your Hope Base is interested in any living Level 3 Wing Membrane Monsters."
Upon hearing this, Xu Lanyue immediately perked up. The humanoid monster was extremely cunning and possessed the ability to lead level-two monsters to attack human settlements.
Hopefully, the base has a fortified inner city and high-tech weapons, but people can't always hide in reinforced concrete.
Whenever they try to send out field teams on missions, they are attacked. Although there are many tanks, they are considered expendable resources in the apocalypse. They don't even have enough living space right now, so they don't have time to free up safe space for production.
A living Level 3 Winged Membrane Monster has extremely high research value; it's worth far more than Xu Lanyue!
She immediately called the Hope Base.
Gu Mingyue smiled as she took the phone and discussed another batch of high-tech weapons deals with Jiang Huaisheng.
Now her Bright Moon Base is no longer a small residential community; how can six tanks be enough!
They immediately ordered another thirty tanks, ten electromagnetic cannons, and hundreds of electromagnetic guns, among other things.
No matter how sophisticated the high-tech weapon, Jiang Huaisheng didn't have the authority to sell it to her. Moreover, because the world was filled with black domains of all sizes, many weapon research sites had been invaded by monsters.
All of them are now under control and cannot be used unless humanity faces a life-or-death crisis.
Gu Mingyue was already very satisfied with this. She could now easily control a level three winged membrane monster, practically getting it for free.
She happily led everyone to the villa area for dinner, leaving everyone shocked and astonished along the way.
"Wow! Are those smoked meats hanging in that building?" Li Ping exclaimed, pointing to a building. The building had six units and seven floors, and every window was open, revealing that the ceiling was covered with dried smoked meats.
Gu Mingyue nodded with a smile.
"Well, this whole building is full of dried meat, the one next to it is full of salted fish, and another one is full of dried vegetables, mushroom houses, a breeding building for mutated rabbits... and a weapons manufacturing room. Haha, of course it can't compare to your Hope Base."
Gu Mingyue was referring to the weapons manufacturing room, but everyone was thinking of the insect plague that their base, despite its layers of protection, couldn't stop the mutated insects from invading the grain warehouse.
Is this still inferior? Apart from weapons, every aspect of Bright Moon Base is better than their Hope Base!
Besides the Level 3 Winged Membrane Monsters, there were also various bird monsters that had been corrupted by the Black Rain in the sky above Hope Base, so no one dared to dry any food, let alone dried meat.
Hopefully, the base had previously stored a large amount of grain, but due to insect eggs mixed in with the rice husks, many grain warehouses suffered from insect infestations after the Black Rain, and their base leaders had to endure having insect whiskers mixed in with their white rice.
It’s so Versailles!
They were all a little envious and jealous!
"Ahhh! Lord Gu, I just saw a child with a purplish-black mutated snake wrapped around his neck. The snake's tongue is sticking out onto the child's face. We must go and save him quickly."
Hearing the screams and shouts of his teammates, Jiang Shenglin's face turned red, and he suddenly felt like he wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground.
"Ahem, don't make a fuss. These mutated animals have all been tamed by them and are their comrades."
He couldn't help but speak up to remind him.
"Oh! Ah? You managed to tame such a thick snake? You're amazing, little sister!" The man clearly didn't understand his deeper meaning and continued to praise him.
"Holy crap, someone pinch me, and I feel like I'm seeing a refreshing green amidst all the yellow sand."
As Li Hao passed by the Junyuefu residential area, he exclaimed in surprise at the top of the tall, mutated gem tree.
"Don't look like you've never seen anything like this before." Feeling that they couldn't let Hope Base lose face, Xu Lanyue reminded them, and then looked in the direction the teammate was pointing.
"Damn, rice, corn, wheat, soybeans, grains! Sister Gu, your base can actually grow grains!" Xu Lanyue changed her previous calm expression and ran eagerly to Gu Mingyue, grabbing her hand.
Gu Mingyue nodded with a smile.
Everyone immediately became interested and ran to the edge of the field, laughing foolishly as they touched the rice seedlings.
